On Nov 7, 52-year-old French author Jean-Baptiste Andrea (让-巴蒂斯特·安德里亚) secured the prestigious (有声望的) Goncourt Prize for his novel Watch Over Her (《守望她》). With a history spanning 120 years, the Goncourt Prize stands as one of the most important literary awards in France.
Described as “extremely refreshing”, the book offers readers a break from a sad news cycle, according to Didier Lecoin, the jury (评委会) president of the Goncourt Prize. Philippe Claudel, another juror, said it was “high-quality popular literature”. “And that is what the Goncourt is about,” he added.
Watch Over Her develops as a love story between a young poor sculptor (雕刻师) and a local aristocratic (贵族的) young woman in 20th-century Italy, during the rise of fascism (法西斯主义). The narrative (叙述) skillfully combines their story of love with explorations of Italian history and political structures.
Andrea mentioned that he crafted the story of Watch Over Her because he desired to reconnect with Italy, “the country of my ancestors”, and because he firmly believed in the power of popular fiction. “A great love story,” he told France Inter, a French radio station. “That’s what makes the world go around, no?”
Andrea, a former screenwriter and director who turned to novel writing in his 40s, expressed that writing novels allowed him to rediscover the joy of writing lost in filmmaking. For him, writing is a means of taking control of his destiny (命运), representing a return to his childhood passion for storytelling.
While some critics suggested that Watch Over Her might challenge the traditionally elitist (精英) image of the Goncourt Prize, Andrea thought differently in an interview with France Inter, stating, “I feel that today we’ve left the prerogative (特权) of telling stories to cinema ... as if telling a story excluded depth. But I think we can be popular and at the same time deep, and give different levels of reading to different types of readers and generations.”
24.What does Didier Lecoin say about Watch Over Her?
A.It elevates high-quality literature. B.It contributes to the sad news cycle.
C.It is overwhelmingly heartbreaking. D.It offers an escape from sorrow.
【答案】D
细节理解题。根据第二段“Described as “extremely refreshing”, the book offers readers a break from a sad news cycle, according to Didier Lecoin, the jury (评委会) president of the Goncourt Prize.(龚古尔文学奖评委会主席迪迪埃·勒库安表示,这本书被形容为“极其令人耳目一新”,让读者从悲伤的新闻周期中解脱出来)”可知,迪迪埃·勒库安认为这本书让读者从悲伤中解脱出来,故选D。
25.What do we know about Watch Over Her?
A.It is a short story set in 20th-century Italy.
B.It is a historical exploration of French politics.
C.It involves a young sculptor and a poor woman.
D.It represents Andrea’s way of revisiting his roots.
【答案】D
题。根据第四段“Andrea mentioned that he crafted the story of Watch Over Her because he desired to reconnect with Italy, “the country of my ancestors”, and because he firmly believed in the power of popular fiction.(安德烈亚提到,他创作《守望她》这个故事是因为他渴望重新与意大利——“我的祖先的故乡”——建立联系,同时他也坚信通俗小说具有强大的影响力)”可知,这本书代表安德里亚重温根源的方式,故选D。
26.Why did Andrea return to novel writing?
A.To find a sense of inner peace. B.To fulfill his childhood dream.
C.To explore storytelling methods. D.To seek further inspiration for filmmaking.
【答案】B
题。根据第五段“For him, writing is a means of taking control of his destiny (命运), representing a return to his childhood passion for storytelling.(对他来说,写作是一种掌控自己命运的方式,代表着回归他童年对讲故事的热爱)”可知,安德里亚回归小说创作是为了实现童年梦想,故选B。
27.What does the underlined word “excluded” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A.Explored. B.Fostered. C.Removed. D.Measured.
【答案】C
题。根据最后一段“But I think we can be popular and at the same time deep, and give different levels of reading to different types of readers and generations.(但我认为我们可以既通俗易懂又内涵深刻,为不同类型的读者和不同年代的人提供不同层次的阅读体验)”可知,这里是说不能认为讲故事就“没有”深度,excluded意思是“去除,排除”,与Removed意思相近,故选C。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了52岁的法国作家让 - 巴蒂斯特·安德里亚凭借小说《守望她》获龚古尔文学奖,介绍了小说相关内容及作者创作原因等 。
C
Have you ever obeyed the suggestions of a digital writing assistant to replace a word or restructure a sentence? Before the appearance of digital tools, you’d probably have turned to a dictionary for the same assistance.
Dictionaries enable us to write not with fail-safe convenience but with originality and a point of view. While AI assistants produce phrases and statements so writers don’t have to think them up, dictionaries provide us with the knowledge to use language ourselves in expressive and potentially infinite (无穷的) ways. They place choice and authority literally in human hands, forcing us to discover how we want to explain ourselves and our ideas to the world.
The abundance of digital writing assistants gives greater urgency to debates about what a dictionary should be. In 1946, George Orwell described good writing as “picking out words for the sake of their meaning,” a practice that dictionaries facilitate while digital writing programs stifle. Writers consulting a dictionary make a choice, while writers guided by an app have their choices made for them. The digital-native approach delivers hands-off, derivative (衍生的) communication. The other requires leafing through pages without knowing exactly where you’ll end up. Without dictionaries to provide us with a guide to English’s potential, writing that way is nearly impossible.
Our ability to express ourselves is critical — it helps us define who we are. Dictionaries aid us in achieving this: They categorize our unique ways of thinking through language. I’m a Canadian; my feeling of pride in my native land is enhanced by small verbal Canadianisms like “eaves trough” or “serviette”, which are well-documented in dictionaries but rarely used by AI chatbots, for the most part.
As digital writing extends deeper into our lives and minds, we need dictionaries more than ever. Abandoning dictionaries and embracing mechanized writing would weaken our capacity for collective identity quite as much as the ability to express ourselves.
28.What might be a distinct feature of dictionaries according to the author?
A.They promise fail-safe phrases. B.They possess academic authority.
C.They facilitate creative writing. D.They provide ready-made expressions.
【答案】C
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Dictionaries enable us to write not with fail-safe convenience but with originality and a point of view.(词典让我们写作时并非依靠万无一失的便捷,而是能够展现独特性和观点)”可知,字典能帮助我们写出有原创性的内容。故选C。
29.What does the underlined word “stifle” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Favor. B.Revise. C.Observe. D.Discourage.
【答案】D
词句猜测题。根据划线词前“a practice that dictionaries facilitate(字典促进这种做法)”和“while”表示的对比关系可知,stifle和facilitate含义相反,即“抑制、阻碍”,选项中discourage“阻拦、使气馁”意思一致。故选D。
30.Why does the author mention “eaves trough” and “serviette” in paragraph 4?
A.To show how AI aids us in expressing.
B.To indicate the weakness of dictionaries.
C.To celebrate the diversity of Canadian English.
D.To illustrate how language use affects identity.
【答案】D
推理判断题。第四段开头“Our ability to express ourselves is critical — it helps us define who we are. Dictionaries aid us in achieving this: They categorize our unique ways of thinking through language.(我们表达自我的能力至关重要——它帮助我们定义自己是谁。词典有助于我们实现这一目标:它们通过语言将我们独特的思维方式进行分类)”点明观点:表达自我的能力帮助我们定义自身身份,字典能帮我们保留独有的语言表达。下文“I’m a Canadian; my feeling of pride in my native land is enhanced by small verbal Canadianisms like “eaves trough” or “serviette”, which are well-documented in dictionaries but rarely used by AI chatbots, for the most part.(我是加拿大人;我对祖国的自豪感因一些小小的加拿大式词汇而得到增强,比如“檐沟”或“餐巾纸”,这些词汇在词典中有详细记载,但在大多数情况下,人工智能聊天机器人很少使用它们)”作者举这两个加拿大特有的词汇,是为了说明:这类特有语言能增强本土身份认同感,即语言使用会影响个人/群体身份。故选D。
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Why Keep Your Dictionary? B.How to Deal with Digital Writing?
C.Who Uses Writing Assistants? D.What to Expect from Dictionaries?
【答案】A
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合最后一段“As digital writing extends deeper into our lives and minds, we need dictionaries more than ever. Abandoning dictionaries and embracing mechanized writing would weaken our capacity for collective identity quite as much as the ability to express ourselves.(随着数字写作深入我们的生活和思维,我们对词典的需求比以往任何时候都更加迫切。放弃词典而转向机械化写作,将同等程度地削弱我们建立集体认同的能力和表达自我的能力)”可知,全文对比数字写作助手和字典,层层论述:在数字写作普及的当下,字典对保留写作原创性、塑造身份认同有不可替代的作用,结尾点明我们比以往更需要字典。由此可知,A项“为什么要保留字典?”适合作本文标题。故选A。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章对比数字写作助手与词典,指出在数字写作普及的当下,词典对保持写作的原创性与塑造身份认同不可替代,最后点明我们比以往更需要词典。
D
Have you ever thought, “Maybe this is all I’m ever meant to be?” Many of us are trapped by labels like “not talented enough” — as if life were a one-way road with no turns. Barbara Oakley’s Mindshift works like a wise guide, helping us remove these mental blocks. It doesn’t offer empty encouragement, but breaks down the science behind change.
The first part of the book tells stories of ordinary people who dared to reshape their lives. Graham Keir, a musician, once believed he had “no brain for science” and today walks the halls of medical school. Or Ali, who once struggled with basic maths, only to later master coding and earn multiple promotions. These are not tales of sudden genius, but of imperfect practice through setbacks and slow progress. Oakley introduces a powerful concept — second-skilling. In today’s fast-changing world, relying on just one area of expertise is risky. Developing a second skill can make you more adaptable.
If the first part helps us see what’s possible, the second is a guide for making it happen. Oakley draws on interviews with dozens of career changers to show what strategies worked and what pitfalls to avoid. Beyond learning from others, the book’s second part offers honest advice for quieting self-doubt and turning learning from a chore into a habit. One of the book’s most valuable insights is that what matters is not “intense practice every day”, but “practise every day, without fail”. Even fifteen minutes daily sends steady signals that quietly reshape your brain.
That said, the book’s perspective isn’t universal. Rooted in a Western context, it draws largely on stable professionals — leaving quieter questions about those facing real hardship. And while it prioritises practice over passion, some may find this approach cool to the touch.
Yet perhaps that coolness is its strength: it doesn’t sell miracles, but offers a solid framework. After reading, you may not have all the answers. But you might ask: “Could what I once thought impossible actually be within reach?”
Ultimately, Mindshift gives something better: a mind open and flexible, ready for change. And that, perhaps, is the truest mindshift of all.
32.What can we learn about Mindshift from paragraph 1?
A.It compares life to a road with no turns.
B.It suggests that talent is the key to success.
C.It helps readers break through mental barriers.
D.It mainly provides readers with emotional support.
【答案】C
细节理解题。根据第一段“Barbara Oakley’s Mindshift works like a wise guide, helping us remove these mental blocks. (芭芭拉・奥克利的《Mindshift》如同一位睿智的向导,帮助我们扫除这些心理障碍。)”可知,这本书帮助读者突破心理壁垒。
33.What do the examples of Graham and Ali mainly show?
A.The value of second-skilling. B.The power of constant practice.
C.The challenge of reshaping life. D.The necessity of career change.
【答案】A
题。根据第二段“Or Ali, who once struggled with basic maths, only to later master coding and earn multiple promotions. These are not tales of sudden genius, but of imperfect practice through setbacks and slow progress. Oakley introduces a powerful concept — second-skilling. In today’s fast-changing world, relying on just one area of expertise is risky. Developing a second skill can make you more adaptable. (还有阿里,他曾经连基础数学都十分吃力,后来却掌握了编程技术,还多次获得升职。这些并非一朝顿悟、天赋骤增的传奇故事,而是人们历经挫折、稳步前行,在不完美的坚持练习中成长的真实经历。奥克利提出了一个极具价值的概念 ——第二技能培养。在当今瞬息万变的社会,只依靠单一专业领域存在很大风险。掌握一项第二技能,能让人拥有更强的适应能力。)”可知,两个事例是为了佐证第二技能的价值。
34.What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Unclear strategies. B.Hidden traps. C.Lack of confidence. D.Imagined threats.
【答案】B
题。根据第三段“Oakley draws on interviews with dozens of career changers to show what strategies worked and what pitfalls to avoid. (奥克利采访众多转行人士,指明可行的策略以及需要避开的pitfalls。)”可知,这里指用可行的策略来避免隐患,所以猜测pitfalls意为“隐藏的陷阱、隐患”。
35.What is the author’s overall attitude towards Mindshift?
A.Cautiously opposed. B.Generally conservative.
C.Completely favourable. D.Largely appreciative.
【答案】D
题。根据倒数第二段“Yet perhaps that coolness is its strength: it doesn’t sell miracles, but offers a solid framework. After reading, you may not have all the answers. But you might ask: “Could what I once thought impossible actually be within reach?” (但或许这份理性克制,正是本书的优势:它不鼓吹奇迹,而是提供一套切实可行的完整体系。读完此书,你或许无法找到所有答案,但你或许会开始思考:那些我曾经认为遥不可及的事,是否其实触手可及?)”和最后一段“Ultimately, Mindshift gives something better: a mind open and flexible, ready for change. (归根结底,《Mindshift》带给读者更宝贵的东西:一颗开放灵活、随时准备迎接改变的内心。)”可知,作者大体上是赞赏这本书的。
【语篇解读】本文介绍《Mindshift》一书,介绍其核心内容、实用方法与些许不足,肯定该书能帮助人们突破思维局限、接纳改变、实现自我成长。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Making friends as an adult can be tough, but it isn’t impossible. ____36____
According to psychologist and friendship expert Dr Marisa G Franco, there is a necessary element for starting a friendship: continuous unplanned interactions (being in the same place and the same time, again and again). When we’re younger and at school or university, this is much easier as we’re automatically placed within a wide network of people who are all going through the same thing. ____37____ Unless we make the effort to put ourselves in situations where we’ll be among others, we probably won’t meet anyone new. So, your first step should be going to places where you can meet people.
____38____ You also have to make the effort to engage with them. Introduce yourself and try to strike up a conversation. ____39____ This is fine: just keep at it until you find someone that you click with. Interestingly, a study by Cornell University found that most people underestimate how much people like them when they meet new people. So even if you feel a bit awkward, chances are that other people won’t see you in this way.
Once you’ve built up a friendly connection with someone, you need to give that relationship time to develop. Keep showing up and be intentional about the effort you put in with that person, while having enough confidence in the relationship to not be too demanding of them. ____40____
A.Friends, like books, should be few but good.
B.Sometimes it will go well, sometimes it won’t.
C.But as we get older, we have less time to just hang out.
D.It’s not enough to just be in the room with these folks, though.
E.Nevertheless, making friends with right people is full of benefits.
F.Unfortunately, though, there’s no way around the time and effort it takes.
G.Over time, your shared experiences will bring the two of you closer together.
【答案】36.F
根据前文“Making friends as an adult can be tough, but it isn’t impossible.(作为一个成年人交朋友可能很难,但也不是不可能)”以及后文“Once you’ve built up a friendly connection with someone, you need to give that relationship time to develop.(一旦你和某人建立了友好的关系,你需要给这种关系发展的时间)”可知,本文讲述成年人交朋友可能很难,但也不是不可能,但是需要时间,所以F项“Unfortunately, though, there’s no way around the time and effort it takes.(然而,不幸的是,没有办法避免花费时间和精力)”和前文构成转折关系,且符合本文主题。故选F项。
【答案】37.C
根据前文“According to psychologist and friendship expert Dr Marisa G Franco, there is a necessary element for starting a friendship: continuous unplanned interactions (being in the same place and the same time, again and again). When we’re younger and at school or university, this is much easier as we’re automatically placed within a wide network of people who are all going through the same thing.(根据心理学家和友谊专家玛丽莎·G·弗朗哥博士的说法,开始一段友谊有一个必要的因素:持续的、计划外的互动(一次又一次地在同一个地点、同一个时间)。当我们年轻的时候,在学校或大学里,这要容易得多,因为我们被自动地置于一个广泛的人际网络中,这些人都在经历同样的事情)”可知,本段在讲述了发展友谊的必要因素,年轻的时候很容易实现这个因素,所以C项“But as we get older, we have less time to just hang out.(但随着年龄的增长,我们闲逛的时间越来越少)”和前文构成转折关系,符合文意。故选C项。
【答案】38.D
根据前文“So, your first step should be going to places where you can meet people.(所以,你的第一步应该是去那些你可以遇见别人的地方)”以及后文“You also have to make the effort to engage with them.(你还必须努力与他们接触)”可知,D项“It’s not enough to just be in the room with these folks, though.(然而,仅仅和这些人在一起是不够的)”承接上文,并引出下文,符合文意。故选D项。
【答案】39.B
根据前文“Introduce yourself and try to strike up a conversation.(自我介绍一下,试着开始一段对话)”以及后文“This is fine: just keep at it until you find someone that you click with.(这很好:只要坚持下去,直到你找到一个你喜欢的人)”可知,B项“Sometimes it will go well, sometimes it won’t.(有时会顺利,有时则不然)”是对前文的进一步说明,而后文又是对本句的进一步说明,符合文意。故选B项。
【答案】40.G
设空位于段尾,是对前文的总结,根据前文“Keep showing up and be intentional about the effort you put in with that person, while having enough confidence in the relationship to not be too demanding of them.(不断出现,有意识地为对方付出努力,同时对这段关系有足够的信心,不要对他们要求太高)”可知,G项“Over time, your shared experiences will bring the two of you closer together.(随着时间的推移,你们共同的经历会让你们走得更近)”是对前文的总结,符合文意。故选G项。
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。讲述了成年人是可以交到朋友的,但是需要花费时间和精力。

79.The novel is so moving that it is worth ________ (recommend) to every student.

【答案】71.Devoted
考查过去分词作状语。he 与 devote(致力于)为被动关系,be devoted to literature 相当于 As he was devoted to...,句首大写。
【答案】72.that
考查定语从句。先行词被最高级 the most moving 修饰时,关系代词只能用 that,从句缺宾语。
【答案】73.written
考查过去分词作定语。the essay 与 write(写作)为被动关系,written in simple English 相当于 which was written in...。
【答案】74.had finished
考查动词时态。By the end of last month 是过去完成时的标志,表示“到过去某时为止已完成的动作”,故填 had finished。
【答案】75.reading
考查固定搭配。be worth doing“值得做”,用动名词的主动形式表示被动意义。
【答案】76.Compared
考查过去分词作状语。books 与 compare(比较)为被动关系,compared with“与……相比”,句首大写。
【答案】77.knew
考查虚拟语气。as if 后的从句与现在事实相反,用一般过去时,know 的过去式为 knew。
【答案】78.through
考查介词。“透过这扇窗户看见别的世界”,through which 相当于 where,through 与 window 搭配。
【答案】79.recommending
考查固定搭配。be worth doing“值得做”,recommend 的动名词为 recommending(双写 t 前注意:recommend 以重读闭音节结尾但 t 前为 n,直接加 -ing)。
【答案】80.did
考查倒装。only then(只有这样)位于句首时句子倒装,由后文 realize 及语境可知为一般过去时,借助动词 did。
第二节(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
The MingKwai typewriter was the product of Chinese writer Lin Yutang’s lifelong dream to build ____81____ machine that could type Chinese. Its brilliant design shows a different picture of ____82____ our computers might have looked like today, if their developers had not used the Latin alphabet.
Lin had poured his entire fortune into this dream. At a time when the Chinese language — with its tens of thousands of characters — ____83____ (struggle) to fit into Western technology, he devoted years ____84____ research, searching for an elegant solution. The fruit of his labor was a remarkable machine he named MingKwai (meaning “clear” and “quick”), ____85____ operation relied on a clever 72 - key system and “Magic Eye” window. By pressing just a few keys, a typist could locate the ____86____ (desire) character in the window and print it.
This “type-view-select” process is now the daily reality among hundreds of millions of people ____87____ (type) Chinese on their phones. It made Chinese typing a ____88____ (pure) visual exercise for the first time—one that didn’t rely on pronunciation ____89____ even require speaking the language.
Though MingKwai never made it into mass ____90____ (produce), that single prototype still whispers of a dream that was far ahead of its time. Lin Yutang’s vision of a machine “for everyone to use” ultimately came true — not in heavy metal, but in devices carried by billions.
【答案】81.a
考查冠词。machine 为可数名词单数,此处泛指“一台机器”,且 machine 以辅音音素开头,故填不定冠词 a。
【答案】82.what
考查宾语从句。介词 of 后接宾语从句,从句中 look like 缺宾语,表示“……的样子”,用连接代词 what 引导。
【答案】83.struggled
考查动词时态。At a time when… 描述过去的情况,主语 the Chinese language 与 struggle(艰难应对)为主动关系,用一般过去时 struggled。
【答案】84.to
考查固定搭配。devote time/money to sth“把时间、金钱投入某事”,to 为介词,故填 to。
【答案】85.whose
考查非限制性定语从句。先行词为 MingKwai,与 operation 构成所属关系(“它的操作”),逗号后用关系代词 whose 引导。
【答案】86.desired
考查词形变化(形容词)。修饰名词 character,用形容词 desired,表示“想要的、所需的”。
【答案】87.typing
考查非谓语动词。people 与 type(打字)为主动关系,用现在分词 typing 作后置定语,相当于 who type。
【答案】88.purely
考查副词。修饰形容词 visual,需用副词 purely(纯粹地)。
【答案】89.or
考查连词。否定句中连接并列结构 didn’t rely on… or (didn’t) require…,表示“既不……也不……”,用 or。
【答案】90.production
考查词形变化(名词)。固定短语 mass production“大规模生产”,produce 的名词形式为 production。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述中国作家林语堂毕生追逐中文打字梦想、造出“明快”打字机的故事:其“打字—查看—选择”的设计影响深远,虽未实现量产,却最终在亿万人的手机上实现了“人人可用”的愿景。

【参考范文】
Dear Tom,
Delighted to hear that Chinese literature has caught your interest, I'd like to offer you a few suggestions.
To begin with, why not start with Tang poems in English translation? Short as they are, these poems paint a moon, a river or a farewell in only a few lines, which makes them easy to finish in minutes yet worth reading again and again. What's more, they open a window on Chinese culture.
As for how to read, here are two tips. First, read a little every day and keep a journal of the lines that move you. Second, share your thoughts with a friend, for discussion often reveals what reading alone misses.
May you enjoy the journey, and I'm looking forward to hearing which poem touches you first.
Yours,
Li Hua
【升格亮点】
1.开头用“Delighted to hear that…, I'd like to offer you a few suggestions.”——分词短语作状语,一句完成寒暄与写信目的,比单用 I'm glad that…更有节奏。
2.“Short as they are, these poems paint…”——as 引导的让步状语从句(表语前置倒装),把“诗短而美”的对比压进一个分句。
3.“which makes them easy to finish in minutes yet worth reading again and again”——非限制性定语从句+yet 转折,避免堆砌 and。
4.“they open a window on Chinese culture”——open a window on 为地道搭配,比 help you know Chinese culture 更凝练。
5.“share your thoughts with a friend, for discussion often reveals what reading alone misses”——for 表原因(书面语),末尾 what 从句+reading alone misses 的对比,是全篇最亮的一句。
6.全篇用 To begin with / What's more / As for / First / Second 分层,衔接清楚,读者一目了然。

On Nov 7, 52-year-old French author Jean-Baptiste Andrea (让-巴蒂斯特·安德里亚) secured the prestigious (有声望的) Goncourt Prize for his novel Watch Over Her (《守望她》). With a history spanning 120 years, the Goncourt Prize stands as one of the most important literary awards in France.
Described as “extremely refreshing”, the book offers readers a break from a sad news cycle, according to Didier Lecoin, the jury (评委会) president of the Goncourt Prize. Philippe Claudel, another juror, said it was “high-quality popular literature”. “And that is what the Goncourt is about,” he added.
Watch Over Her develops as a love story between a young poor sculptor (雕刻师) and a local aristocratic (贵族的) young woman in 20th-century Italy, during the rise of fascism (法西斯主义). The narrative (叙述) skillfully combines their story of love with explorations of Italian history and political structures.
Andrea mentioned that he crafted the story of Watch Over Her because he desired to reconnect with Italy, “the country of my ancestors”, and because he firmly believed in the power of popular fiction. “A great love story,” he told France Inter, a French radio station. “That’s what makes the world go around, no?”
Andrea, a former screenwriter and director who turned to novel writing in his 40s, expressed that writing novels allowed him to rediscover the joy of writing lost in filmmaking. For him, writing is a means of taking control of his destiny (命运), representing a return to his childhood passion for storytelling.
While some critics suggested that Watch Over Her might challenge the traditionally elitist (精英) image of the Goncourt Prize, Andrea thought differently in an interview with France Inter, stating, “I feel that today we’ve left the prerogative (特权) of telling stories to cinema ... as if telling a story excluded depth. But I think we can be popular and at the same time deep, and give different levels of reading to different types of readers and generations.”
24.What does Didier Lecoin say about Watch Over Her?
A.It elevates high-quality literature. B.It contributes to the sad news cycle.
C.It is overwhelmingly heartbreaking. D.It offers an escape from sorrow.
25.What do we know about Watch Over Her?
A.It is a short story set in 20th-century Italy.
B.It is a historical exploration of French politics.
C.It involves a young sculptor and a poor woman.
D.It represents Andrea’s way of revisiting his roots.
26.Why did Andrea return to novel writing?
A.To find a sense of inner peace. B.To fulfill his childhood dream.
C.To explore storytelling methods. D.To seek further inspiration for filmmaking.
27.What does the underlined word “excluded” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A.Explored. B.Fostered. C.Removed. D.Measured.
C
Have you ever obeyed the suggestions of a digital writing assistant to replace a word or restructure a sentence? Before the appearance of digital tools, you’d probably have turned to a dictionary for the same assistance.
Dictionaries enable us to write not with fail-safe convenience but with originality and a point of view. While AI assistants produce phrases and statements so writers don’t have to think them up, dictionaries provide us with the knowledge to use language ourselves in expressive and potentially infinite (无穷的) ways. They place choice and authority literally in human hands, forcing us to discover how we want to explain ourselves and our ideas to the world.
The abundance of digital writing assistants gives greater urgency to debates about what a dictionary should be. In 1946, George Orwell described good writing as “picking out words for the sake of their meaning,” a practice that dictionaries facilitate while digital writing programs stifle. Writers consulting a dictionary make a choice, while writers guided by an app have their choices made for them. The digital-native approach delivers hands-off, derivative (衍生的) communication. The other requires leafing through pages without knowing exactly where you’ll end up. Without dictionaries to provide us with a guide to English’s potential, writing that way is nearly impossible.
Our ability to express ourselves is critical — it helps us define who we are. Dictionaries aid us in achieving this: They categorize our unique ways of thinking through language. I’m a Canadian; my feeling of pride in my native land is enhanced by small verbal Canadianisms like “eaves trough” or “serviette”, which are well-documented in dictionaries but rarely used by AI chatbots, for the most part.
As digital writing extends deeper into our lives and minds, we need dictionaries more than ever. Abandoning dictionaries and embracing mechanized writing would weaken our capacity for collective identity quite as much as the ability to express ourselves.
28.What might be a distinct feature of dictionaries according to the author?
A.They promise fail-safe phrases. B.They possess academic authority.
C.They facilitate creative writing. D.They provide ready-made expressions.
29.What does the underlined word “stifle” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Favor. B.Revise. C.Observe. D.Discourage.
30.Why does the author mention “eaves trough” and “serviette” in paragraph 4?
A.To show how AI aids us in expressing.
B.To indicate the weakness of dictionaries.
C.To celebrate the diversity of Canadian English.
D.To illustrate how language use affects identity.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Why Keep Your Dictionary? B.How to Deal with Digital Writing?
C.Who Uses Writing Assistants? D.What to Expect from Dictionaries?
D
Have you ever thought, “Maybe this is all I’m ever meant to be?” Many of us are trapped by labels like “not talented enough” — as if life were a one-way road with no turns. Barbara Oakley’s Mindshift works like a wise guide, helping us remove these mental blocks. It doesn’t offer empty encouragement, but breaks down the science behind change.
The first part of the book tells stories of ordinary people who dared to reshape their lives. Graham Keir, a musician, once believed he had “no brain for science” and today walks the halls of medical school. Or Ali, who once struggled with basic maths, only to later master coding and earn multiple promotions. These are not tales of sudden genius, but of imperfect practice through setbacks and slow progress. Oakley introduces a powerful concept — second-skilling. In today’s fast-changing world, relying on just one area of expertise is risky. Developing a second skill can make you more adaptable.
If the first part helps us see what’s possible, the second is a guide for making it happen. Oakley draws on interviews with dozens of career changers to show what strategies worked and what pitfalls to avoid. Beyond learning from others, the book’s second part offers honest advice for quieting self-doubt and turning learning from a chore into a habit. One of the book’s most valuable insights is that what matters is not “intense practice every day”, but “practise every day, without fail”. Even fifteen minutes daily sends steady signals that quietly reshape your brain.
That said, the book’s perspective isn’t universal. Rooted in a Western context, it draws largely on stable professionals — leaving quieter questions about those facing real hardship. And while it prioritises practice over passion, some may find this approach cool to the touch.
Yet perhaps that coolness is its strength: it doesn’t sell miracles, but offers a solid framework. After reading, you may not have all the answers. But you might ask: “Could what I once thought impossible actually be within reach?”
Ultimately, Mindshift gives something better: a mind open and flexible, ready for change. And that, perhaps, is the truest mindshift of all.
32.What can we learn about Mindshift from paragraph 1?
A.It compares life to a road with no turns.
B.It suggests that talent is the key to success.
C.It helps readers break through mental barriers.
D.It mainly provides readers with emotional support.
33.What do the examples of Graham and Ali mainly show?
A.The value of second-skilling. B.The power of constant practice.
C.The challenge of reshaping life. D.The necessity of career change.
34.What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Unclear strategies. B.Hidden traps. C.Lack of confidence. D.Imagined threats.
35.What is the author’s overall attitude towards Mindshift?
A.Cautiously opposed. B.Generally conservative.
C.Completely favourable. D.Largely appreciative.

Making friends as an adult can be tough, but it isn’t impossible. ____36____
According to psychologist and friendship expert Dr Marisa G Franco, there is a necessary element for starting a friendship: continuous unplanned interactions (being in the same place and the same time, again and again). When we’re younger and at school or university, this is much easier as we’re automatically placed within a wide network of people who are all going through the same thing. ____37____ Unless we make the effort to put ourselves in situations where we’ll be among others, we probably won’t meet anyone new. So, your first step should be going to places where you can meet people.
____38____ You also have to make the effort to engage with them. Introduce yourself and try to strike up a conversation. ____39____ This is fine: just keep at it until you find someone that you click with. Interestingly, a study by Cornell University found that most people underestimate how much people like them when they meet new people. So even if you feel a bit awkward, chances are that other people won’t see you in this way.
Once you’ve built up a friendly connection with someone, you need to give that relationship time to develop. Keep showing up and be intentional about the effort you put in with that person, while having enough confidence in the relationship to not be too demanding of them. ____40____
A.Friends, like books, should be few but good.
B.Sometimes it will go well, sometimes it won’t.
C.But as we get older, we have less time to just hang out.
D.It’s not enough to just be in the room with these folks, though.
E.Nevertheless, making friends with right people is full of benefits.
F.Unfortunately, though, there’s no way around the time and effort it takes.
G.Over time, your shared experiences will bring the two of you closer together.

The MingKwai typewriter was the product of Chinese writer Lin Yutang’s lifelong dream to build ____81____ machine that could type Chinese. Its brilliant design shows a different picture of ____82____ our computers might have looked like today, if their developers had not used the Latin alphabet.
Lin had poured his entire fortune into this dream.

This “type-view-select” process is now the daily reality among hundreds of millions of people ____87____ (type) Chinese on their phones. It made Chinese typing a ____88____ (pure) visual exercise for the first time—one that didn’t rely on pronunciation ____89____ even require speaking the language.
Though MingKwai never made it into mass ____90____ (produce), that single prototype still whispers of a dream that was far ahead of its time. Lin Yutang’s vision of a machine “for everyone to use” ultimately came true — not in heavy metal, but in devices carried by billions.
