One summer day, he came back to his lab from a short vacation and checked the forgotten culture dishes. A curious phenomenon caught his eye: a kind of mold had killed the bacteria around it. This unexpected discovery became the start of his research on penicillin. At that time, almost all antibacterial drugs damaged human cells while killing germs. Fleming wanted to create a safer treatment. The new substance would target bacteria only, with no harm to human body. No scientific breakthrough is completed at the very beginning. Fleming’s research changed a lot during the process. At first, he only tested the mold’s effect on bacteria in dishes. He did not consider its medical use on humans at first. To prove its safety, he did a lot of targeted experiments. One test later proved that it could cure infections safely. He also explored different uses: could it treat skin wounds or internal infections? Finally, he confirmed the special effect of the mold. It destroyed harmful bacteria but kept human cells completely safe. Fleming’s years of experience as a bacteriologist made him understand that early experimental results are always imperfect. He never waited for accidental luck to complete the research. He had to test and verify the data step by step. Many scientists quit because early experiments failed, but Fleming knew this was normal for scientific research. Fleming had many worries during the research. The mold was hard to produce in large amounts, and few people believed its practical value. He insisted on his research, and his teammates supported him. Later, scientists solved the production problem. Penicillin became the most important lifesaving medicine in the world. Fleming never thought he could make such a landmark discovery again. He would continue his scientific work, but penicillin was a one-time miracle. It was a lucky mix of accident and persistence, and no similar achievement could be copied. 24. What was a main flaw of old antibacterial drugs? A. Killed only weak germs　　B. Harmed human body cells C. Cured no infections well　　D. Needed large amounts 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“At that time, almost all antibacterial drugs damaged human cells while killing germs.(在那个时候，几乎所有的抗菌药物在杀死细菌的同时也会损害人体细胞)”可知，旧抗菌药物的一个主要缺陷是会损害人体细胞。故选B项。 25. What did Fleming first test the mold on? A. Bacteria in lab dishes　　B. Human skin infections C. Animal test samples　　D. Internal body tissues 【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“At first, he only tested the mold’s effect on bacteria in dishes.(起初，他只测试了霉菌对培养皿中细菌的影响)”可知，弗莱明最初在实验室培养皿中的细菌上测试霉菌。故选A项。 26. What did Fleming explore for the mold? A. Cheaper production ways　　 B. New lab equipment types C. More bacteria strains tested　　D. Different medical applications 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“He also explored different uses: could it treat skin wounds or internal infections?(他还探索了不同的用途：它能治疗皮肤伤口或内部感染吗？)”可知，弗莱明探索了霉菌不同的医疗应用。故选D项。 27. How did the mold affect human cells? A. Damaged them seriously　　 B. Killed some of them slowly C. Kept them completely safe　　D. Changed their function greatly 【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“Finally, he confirmed the special effect of the mold. It destroyed harmful bacteria but kept human cells completely safe.(最后，他证实了这种霉菌的特殊效果。它能消灭有害细菌，但能让人体细胞完全安全)”可知，霉菌对人体细胞的影响是使其完全安全。故选C项。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述亚历山大·弗莱明发现青霉素的过程：从度假归来发现霉菌抑菌的偶然契机，到为寻找更安全的抗菌疗法而开展测试与探索，再到研究中的困难与坚持，展现科学发现中偶然与坚持的结合。 C Could you imagine being able to "feel" the images on your screen? UCSB researchers have made this sci-fi-like idea a reality. They've developed a display where pixels (像素) physically rise off the surface when activated by laser light (激光). Even our most advanced screens today have a limitation: they're flat. We never quite feel what we see. In 2021, UCSB professor Yon Visell investigated this very question: could light be made to create a sensation that could be felt through touch? He saw a breakthrough in late 2022. A single pixel rose upward under a flash of laser light, sending a pulse (脉冲) that was very much noticeable to Professor Visell's fingertips. At the heart of this invention are tiny pixels, which are tiny cells built with a thin film stretched above a small air cavity (腔). When a quick pulse of laser light hits a pixel, the film heats up, causing the trapped air to expand, making the surface swell upward in just 2 to 100 milliseconds, by about a millimeter (0.04 inch). As a sighted person, it does initially feel like something new and unusual. But the more I think about it, the more it feels like it could have the most significant benefit to people who explore the world through touch. This begins to look like a sort of "animated Braille (动画盲文)" and tells a story in real-time. It could make digital learning faster and richer for blind users. Touch and sight have always lived in separate digital worlds. We input with touch, and consume outputs with sight. With this new invention, this separation may just be narrowing. As the UCSB researchers put it, someday soon, anything you see, you may also feel. 28. What makes the new display different from the screens today? A. It sends out laser light.　　B. Its pixels can expand upward. C. It rises off fingertips.　　 D. Its pulses are unnoticeable. 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段"They've developed a display where pixels (像素) physically rise off the surface when activated by laser light (激光). (他们开发了一种显示屏，当像素被激光激活时，会从表面物理凸起)"以及第二段"Even our most advanced screens today have a limitation: they're flat.(即使是我们今天最先进的屏幕也有一个局限性：它们是平面的)"可知，新显示屏与如今屏幕的不同之处在于它的像素可以向上凸起。故选B项。 29. Which aspect of the invention is talked about in paragraph 4? A. Its working principle.　　B. Its daily application. C. Its obvious advantages.　　D. Its potential challenges. 【答案】A 【解析】主旨大意题。根据第四段"When a quick pulse of laser light hits a pixel, the film heats up, causing the trapped air to expand, making the surface swell upward in just 2 to 100 milliseconds, by about a millimeter (0.04 inch). (当一束快速的激光脉冲击中一个像素时，薄膜会升温被困的空气膨胀，使表面在2到100毫秒内向上膨胀约1毫米(0.04英寸))"可知，本段详细介绍了新型像素的结构，以及激光照射后，薄膜加热、空气膨胀、表面隆起的完整工作流程，核心是阐述该发明的工作原理。故选A项。 30. Who will benefit most from the new display according to the author? A. UCSB researchers.　　 B. Adventurous sighted people. C. The visually disabled.　　D. The digital enthusiasts. 【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第五段"But the more I think about it, the more it feels like it could have the most significant benefit to people who explore the world through touch. This begins to look like a sort of "animated Braille (动画盲文)" and tells a story in real-time. It could make digital learning faster and richer for blind users. (但我想得越多，就越觉得它对通过触摸探索世界的人来说可能有最大的好处。这开始看起来像一种"动画盲文"，并实时告诉一个故事。它可以使盲人用户的数字学习更快、更丰富)"可知，视障人士将从这种新显示屏中获益最多。故选C项。 31. What does the author imply about the invention in the last paragraph? A. It may help replace sight with touch.　　B. It may separate input from output. C. It may help feel what is usually seen.　　D. It may enlarge gaps between senses. 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段"With this new invention, this separation may just be narrowing. As the UCSB researchers put it, someday soon, anything you see, you may also feel. (有了这项新发明，这种分离可能正在缩小。正如加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的研究人员所说，不久的将来，你看到的任何东西，都可能感受到)"可知，这项发明能让人触摸到平常只能看到的东西。故选C项。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种新发明，这种发明可能会让人们感受到平时看到的东西。 D The announcement that China’s railway network will significantly expand its “quiet carriage” service beginning February 1 is a modest reform with huge significance. By extending this option to nearly all “D” and “G” series high-speed trains, China State Railway Group is acknowledging a shift in public expectations: that modern travel should not only be fast, but also kind and respectful of personal space. In an era when speed is often taken for granted, comfort is increasingly defined by atmosphere. Noise — constant phone calls, deafening videos, loud conversations — has become a common source of friction in public transport. The quiet carriage is a direct response, recognizing that silence itself can be a valuable public good. Since its pilot launch in late 2020, the quiet carriage has built a loyal following. Its popularity sends a clear message: there is real demand for different services that respect varying travel needs. A mature public transport system should accommodate both lively conversation and calm. This expansion also signals confidence in social self-regulation. Passengers must agree to a “quiet agreement, ” promising to keep noise to a minimum. This is not merely procedural but an experiment in trust — an assumption that citizens, when clearly informed, are capable of regulating their own conduct. Whether this succeeds depends on everyday behavior. The quiet carriage works only if passengers internalize its spirit. Silence is sustained by mutual awareness and self- control. In this sense, each train becomes a small, moving society. Critics may argue enforcement is difficult, but this misses the point. The purpose is not about keeping people apart, but about allowing them to choose. Those preferring a relaxed environment have alternatives. What matters is that those who choose silence can expect it to be honored. Ultimately, this expansion is about trust — between institutions and citizens, and among passengers themselves. If embraced sincerely, the quiet carriage can symbolize a society learning to respect the invisible boundaries that make collective life possible. Sometimes, progress sounds like silence. 32. What can we infer from “quiet carriage”? A. It will be expanded to more trains.　　B. Trains will all be equipped soon. C. Public cares more about personal space.　　D. It aims to replace ordinary carriages. 【答案】A 【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段“The announcement that China’s railway network will significantly expand its “quiet carriage” service beginning February 1 is a modest reform with huge significance.(中国铁路网将从2月1日起大幅扩展‘静音车厢’服务的公告，是一项意义重大的温和改革。)”可知，静音车厢将会被推广到更多列车。故选A。 33. Why was the quiet carriage created? A. To meet speed demands.　　B. To solve transport noise. C. To create total silence.　　D. To redefine travel comfort. 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“Noise — constant phone calls, deafening videos, loud conversations — has become a common source of friction in public transport. The quiet carriage is a direct response, recognizing that silence itself can be a valuable public good.(噪音——持续的电话、震耳欲聋的视频、大声的交谈——已成为公共交通中常见的摩擦来源。静音车厢是直接的回应，它认识到沉默本身可以是一种宝贵的公共产品。)”可知，设立静音车厢是为了解决交通噪音问题。故选B。 34. What’s the benefit of introducing quiet carriage? A. It reveals demand for better service.　　B. It helps create a zero-noise atmosphere. C. It requires people to internalize its spirit.　　D. It encourages passengers’ self-regulation. 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“This expansion also signals confidence in social self-regulation. Passengers must agree to a “quiet agreement,” promising to keep noise to a minimum. This is not merely procedural but an experiment in trust — an assumption that citizens, when clearly informed, are capable of regulating their own conduct.(这一扩展也标志着对社会自我调节的信心。乘客必须同意“静音协议”，承诺将噪音降到最低。这不仅仅是程序上的，更是一次信任实验——假设公民在得到明确告知后，能够规范自己的行为。)”可知，引入静音车厢的好处是鼓励乘客自我调节。故选D。 35. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. It is hard but important to carry out.　　B. It provides an alternative for people. C. It is ultimately about building trust.　　D. It respects invisible social boundaries. 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, this expansion is about trust — between institutions and citizens, and among passengers themselves.(归根结底，这种扩展是关于信任——机构与公民之间，以及乘客之间的信任。)”可知，这项举措最终是为了建立信任。故选C。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。由中国铁路自2月1日起扩大"静音车厢"服务的消息谈起，探讨其背后的社会意义：对个人空间的尊重、对社会自我调节能力的信任，以及对现代旅行舒适度的重新定义。 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。 A few days before, I tried clearing out some old schoolbooks. Deep down, I knew I would never read them again. Yet I realized with myself that maybe they would be helpful someday. ____36____ I am probably not alone in this: this struggle is a phenomenon known as the "Endowment Effect (禀赋效应)". Psychologists who demonstrated the effect found that people demanded a much higher price to sell a bottle of wine they owned than they were willing to pay to buy that same bottle. ____37____ It explains why we are so unwilling to give something up once we own it. Why does this happen? At first, researchers thought it was a classic case of "loss aversion", where the pain of losing something feels twice as strong as the pleasure of gaining it. ____38____ Psychologists conclude that we value something more simply because it is ours. We project our identity onto the object, making it painful to move on. Fortunately, there is an effective counteraction: shifting your perspective from an "owner" to a "buyer". When you are hesitating to throw something away, ask yourself: "How much would I pay to buy this from others now?" ____39____ If that is the case, it is a clear sign you value the item not for its usefulness, but simply for the endowment effect. ____40____ Besides turning our homes into storage units for the past, it makes us mentally trapped in them as well. Recognizing this is the first step toward the liberation of living with less. Make space for what truly matters. A. It just feels right to keep them. B. More often than not, the answer is "nothing". C. Thus, a price gap exists between buyers and sellers. D. The cost of ownership is often far greater than we think. E. We often mistakenly believe these items define who we are. F. That sounds logical, but the real reason is the sense of ownership itself. G. The inconsistency reveals we overvalue things just because we possess them. 36　【答案】A 【解析】前文"A few days before, I tried clearing out some old schoolbooks. Deep down, I knew I would never read them again. Yet I realized with myself that maybe they would be helpful someday.(几天前，我试着清理一些旧课本。内心深处，我知道自己再也不会读它们了。然而，我还是觉得也许它们某天会有用)"提到作者想清理旧校书，知道不会再读但又觉得也许某天会有用，后文"I am probably not alone in this: this struggle is a phenomenon known as the "Endowment Effect (禀赋效应)".(我可能并非只有自己有这种纠结：这种挣扎是一种被称为"禀赋效应"的现象)"说明这种矛盾心理是普遍存在的。A选项"It just feels right to keep them.(留着它们感觉就是对的)"很好地体现了这种矛盾心理，即虽然知道可能不会再读，但留着又觉得合理，符合语境，故选A。 37　【答案】G 【解析】前文"Psychologists who demonstrated the effect found that people demanded a much higher price to sell a bottle of wine they owned than they were willing to pay to buy that same bottle.(证明这种效应存在的心理学家发现，人们对自己拥有的一瓶酒的售价比他们愿意为购买同一瓶酒所出的价格要高得多)"举例说明人们对自己拥有的物品要价高，对购买相同物品出价低。G选项"The inconsistency reveals we overvalue things just because we possess them.(这种不一致表明，我们仅仅因为拥有某物就对其估值过高)"是对前文现象的总结，符合语境，故选G。 38　【答案】F 【解析】前文"At first, researchers thought it was a classic case of "loss aversion", where the pain of losing something feels twice as strong as the pleasure of gaining it.(起初，研究人员认为这是"损失厌恶"的典型案例，即失去某物的痛苦感觉是获得同等事物所带来的愉悦感的两倍)"说研究人员最初认为这是"损失厌恶"的典型案例，后文"Psychologists conclude that we value something more simply because it is ours.(心理学家得出结论：我们仅仅因为某样东西属于自己就会更看重它)"说心理学家得出结论是因为物品是自己的所以更看重它。F选项"That sounds logical, but the real reason is the sense of ownership itself.(这听起来合理，但真正的原因是所有权本身)"起到了转折作用，引出了真正的原因，符合上下文逻辑，故选F。 39　【答案】B 【解析】前文"When you are hesitating to throw something away, ask yourself: "How much would I pay to buy this from others now?"(当你犹豫是否要扔掉某样东西时，问问自己："我现在愿意花多少钱从别人那里买下这个东西？")"说当犹豫是否扔掉东西时，问自己现在愿意花多少钱从别人那里买这个东西。B选项"More often than not, the answer is "nothing".(通常情况下，答案是"没什么（指不愿花钱再买回自己拥有的东西）")"承接上文，说明很多时候对购买自己拥有的东西出价很低，与后文"If that is the case, it is a clear sign you value the item not for its usefulness, but simply for the endowment effect.(如果是这样，那就清楚地表明，你重视这件物品不是因为它的实用性，而仅仅是因为禀赋效应)"对购买自己拥有的东西出价很低的原因是禀赋效应相呼应，故选B。 40　【答案】D 【解析】后文"Besides turning our homes into storage units for the past, it makes us mentally trapped in them as well.(除了把我们的家变成过去的储物间，它还让我们在精神上也受困于过去)"说除了把我们的家变成过去的储物间，它还让我们在精神上也受困于过去，说明禀赋效应有不好的影响。D选项"The cost of ownership is often far greater than we think.(拥有物品的成本往往比我们想象的要高得多)"概括了后文内容，说明禀赋效应带来的危害，故选D。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是"禀赋效应"的表现，产生的原因和应对的方法。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I used to work in a center for people with alcohol use disorder in Aberdeen.

Their parents had booked a small cabin at the edge of a forest, a place their father described as "a hidden world full of wonders." When they arrived, the siblings were immediately drawn to the quiet charm of the wooden cabin. It stood peacefully among tall pines, with sunlight flickering across its roof like dancing gold. Every morning, their father would take them into the woods, teaching them how to look at the forest the way a ranger would. He told them that trees facing the south usually grew thicker leaves because they got more sunlight. He showed them how to read little animal footprints, how to listen for streams, and how to find safe berries when they felt hungry. When the weather turned cloudy or rainy, the whole family would sit by the fireplace in the cabin, taking turns telling stories. The flames crackled cheerfully while shadows danced against the walls, creating a warm world of their own. One afternoon, however, their parents had to go out for a short errand. Before leaving, they reminded the siblings firmly not to go outside. David and Jane promised, but the promise didn't last long. The gentle sound of the stream outside the cabin windows was simply too tempting. David looked at his sister and whispered, "Why don't we go for a little adventure? We'll take the flashlights — if it gets dark, we'll still be okay." Jane hesitated only for a moment before her curiosity won. The two slipped out and headed into the woods. The forest welcomed them with dappled sunlight spilling across the ground. Dry leaves crackled crisply under their feet, and a plump, unfamiliar bird hopped from branch to branch, chirping as if greeting them. When they got hungry, the siblings picked the same berries their father had shown them days earlier. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 However, the sky began to dim before they knew it. ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ Then David recalled their father's tip about the south-facing side of the trees. ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ 【参考范文】 Paragraph 1: However, the sky began to dim before they knew it. Jane tightened her grip on David's arm, her voice trembling with apprehension. "We should have listened to Mom and Dad. What if we can't find our way back?" David forced a calm tone, though his own heart raced. "Don't panic. We have our flashlights, and remember all those survival skills Dad taught us." But as darkness fell, their flashlights' feeble beams were swallowed by the oppressive gloom. The gnarled trees loomed like giants, and the stream's murmur turned into ominous whispers of their predicament. Paragraph 2: Then David recalled their father's tip about the south-facing side of the trees. "Wait!" David exclaimed suddenly, "Dad said south-facing trees have thicker branches for more sunlight — find south, and we can get back to the cabin!" Following this natural compass, they ventured carefully through the undergrowth. After what felt like an eternity, a faint golden glow pierced through the dense trees — the cabin's porch light! Rushing forward with exhilaration, they embraced each other in overwhelming relief. Their parents, who had been searching frantically, greeted them with tears of joy and relieved laughter. That evening, David and Jane found their way home and learned preparation and mindfulness turn reckless escapades into meaningful journeys. 【续写指导】 附：答案速查 1—5 ACBAB 6—10 BCAAB 11—15 BCBAB 16—20 BABCC 21—25 BBCBA 26—30 DCBAC 31—35 CABDC 36—40 AGFBD 41—45 BACBD 46—50 CCADB 51—55 ADCAB 56—60 highlighting　but　to hold　spells　for 61—65 are included　the　dependence　As　increasingly 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026—2027学年度南通市高三年级期中考试 英　语 （考试时间：120分钟　满分：150分） 注 意 事 项 考生在答题前请认真阅读本注意事项及各题答题要求 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，请用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音读两遍。 1.

B Alexander Fleming usually inspected his bacterial cultures after finishing routine lab work. One summer day, he came back to his lab from a short vacation and checked the forgotten culture dishes. A curious phenomenon caught his eye: a kind of mold had killed the bacteria around it. This unexpected discovery became the start of his research on penicillin. At that time, almost all antibacterial drugs damaged human cells while killing germs. Fleming wanted to create a safer treatment. The new substance would target bacteria only, with no harm to human body. No scientific breakthrough is completed at the very beginning. Fleming’s research changed a lot during the process. At first, he only tested the mold’s effect on bacteria in dishes. He did not consider its medical use on humans at first. To prove its safety, he did a lot of targeted experiments. One test later proved that it could cure infections safely. He also explored different uses: could it treat skin wounds or internal infections? Finally, he confirmed the special effect of the mold. It destroyed harmful bacteria but kept human cells completely safe. Fleming’s years of experience as a bacteriologist made him understand that early experimental results are always imperfect. He never waited for accidental luck to complete the research. He had to test and verify the data step by step. Many scientists quit because early experiments failed, but Fleming knew this was normal for scientific research. Fleming had many worries during the research. The mold was hard to produce in large amounts, and few people believed its practical value. He insisted on his research, and his teammates supported him. Later, scientists solved the production problem. Penicillin became the most important lifesaving medicine in the world. Fleming never thought he could make such a landmark discovery again. He would continue his scientific work, but penicillin was a one-time miracle. It was a lucky mix of accident and persistence, and no similar achievement could be copied. 24. What was a main flaw of old antibacterial drugs? A. Killed only weak germs　　B. Harmed human body cells C. Cured no infections well　　D. Needed large amounts 25. What did Fleming first test the mold on? A. Bacteria in lab dishes　　B. Human skin infections C. Animal test samples　　 D. Internal body tissues 26. What did Fleming explore for the mold? A. Cheaper production ways　　 B. New lab equipment types C. More bacteria strains tested　　D. Different medical applications 27. How did the mold affect human cells? A. Damaged them seriously　　 B. Killed some of them slowly C. Kept them completely safe　　D. Changed their function greatly C Could you imagine being able to "feel" the images on your screen? UCSB researchers have made this sci-fi-like idea a reality. They've developed a display where pixels (像素) physically rise off the surface when activated by laser light (激光). Even our most advanced screens today have a limitation: they're flat. We never quite feel what we see. In 2021, UCSB professor Yon Visell investigated this very question: could light be made to create a sensation that could be felt through touch? He saw a breakthrough in late 2022. A single pixel rose upward under a flash of laser light, sending a pulse (脉冲) that was very much noticeable to Professor Visell's fingertips. At the heart of this invention are tiny pixels, which are tiny cells built with a thin film stretched above a small air cavity (腔). When a quick pulse of laser light hits a pixel, the film heats up, causing the trapped air to expand, making the surface swell upward in just 2 to 100 milliseconds, by about a millimeter (0.04 inch). As a sighted person, it does initially feel like something new and unusual. But the more I think about it, the more it feels like it could have the most significant benefit to people who explore the world through touch. This begins to look like a sort of "animated Braille (动画盲文)" and tells a story in real-time. It could make digital learning faster and richer for blind users. Touch and sight have always lived in separate digital worlds. We input with touch, and consume outputs with sight. With this new invention, this separation may just be narrowing. As the UCSB researchers put it, someday soon, anything you see, you may also feel. 28. What makes the new display different from the screens today? A. It sends out laser light.　　B. Its pixels can expand upward. C. It rises off fingertips.　　 D. Its pulses are unnoticeable. 29. Which aspect of the invention is talked about in paragraph 4? A. Its working principle.　　 B. Its daily application. C. Its obvious advantages.　　D. Its potential challenges. 30. Who will benefit most from the new display according to the author? A. UCSB researchers.　　B. Adventurous sighted people. C. The visually disabled.　　D. The digital enthusiasts. 31. What does the author imply about the invention in the last paragraph? A. It may help replace sight with touch.　　B. It may separate input from output. C. It may help feel what is usually seen.　　D. It may enlarge gaps between senses. D The announcement that China’s railway network will significantly expand its “quiet carriage” service beginning February 1 is a modest reform with huge significance. By extending this option to nearly all “D” and “G” series high-speed trains, China State Railway Group is acknowledging a shift in public expectations: that modern travel should not only be fast, but also kind and respectful of personal space. In an era when speed is often taken for granted, comfort is increasingly defined by atmosphere. Noise — constant phone calls, deafening videos, loud conversations — has become a common source of friction in public transport. The quiet carriage is a direct response, recognizing that silence itself can be a valuable public good. Since its pilot launch in late 2020, the quiet carriage has built a loyal following. Its popularity sends a clear message: there is real demand for different services that respect varying travel needs. A mature public transport system should accommodate both lively conversation and calm. This expansion also signals confidence in social self-regulation. Passengers must agree to a “quiet agreement, ” promising to keep noise to a minimum. This is not merely procedural but an experiment in trust — an assumption that citizens, when clearly informed, are capable of regulating their own conduct. Whether this succeeds depends on everyday behavior. The quiet carriage works only if passengers internalize its spirit. Silence is sustained by mutual awareness and self- control. In this sense, each train becomes a small, moving society. Critics may argue enforcement is difficult, but this misses the point. The purpose is not about keeping people apart, but about allowing them to choose. Those preferring a relaxed environment have alternatives. What matters is that those who choose silence can expect it to be honored. Ultimately, this expansion is about trust — between institutions and citizens, and among passengers themselves. If embraced sincerely, the quiet carriage can symbolize a society learning to respect the invisible boundaries that make collective life possible. Sometimes, progress sounds like silence. 32. What can we infer from “quiet carriage”? A. It will be expanded to more trains.　　 B. Trains will all be equipped soon. C. Public cares more about personal space.　　D. It aims to replace ordinary carriages. 33. Why was the quiet carriage created? A. To meet speed demands.　　B. To solve transport noise. C. To create total silence.　　D. To redefine travel comfort. 34. What’s the benefit of introducing quiet carriage? A. It reveals demand for better service.　　 B. It helps create a zero-noise atmosphere. C. It requires people to internalize its spirit.　　D. It encourages passengers’ self-regulation. 35. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. It is hard but important to carry out.　　B. It provides an alternative for people. C. It is ultimately about building trust.　　D. It respects invisible social boundaries. 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。 A few days before, I tried clearing out some old schoolbooks. Deep down, I knew I would never read them again. Yet I realized with myself that maybe they would be helpful someday. ____36____ I am probably not alone in this: this struggle is a phenomenon known as the "Endowment Effect (禀赋效应)". Psychologists who demonstrated the effect found that people demanded a much higher price to sell a bottle of wine they owned than they were willing to pay to buy that same bottle. ____37____ It explains why we are so unwilling to give something up once we own it. Why does this happen? At first, researchers thought it was a classic case of "loss aversion", where the pain of losing something feels twice as strong as the pleasure of gaining it. ____38____ Psychologists conclude that we value something more simply because it is ours. We project our identity onto the object, making it painful to move on. Fortunately, there is an effective counteraction: shifting your perspective from an "owner" to a "buyer". When you are hesitating to throw something away, ask yourself: "How much would I pay to buy this from others now?" ____39____ If that is the case, it is a clear sign you value the item not for its usefulness, but simply for the endowment effect. ____40____ Besides turning our homes into storage units for the past, it makes us mentally trapped in them as well. Recognizing this is the first step toward the liberation of living with less. Make space for what truly matters. A. It just feels right to keep them. B. More often than not, the answer is "nothing". C. Thus, a price gap exists between buyers and sellers. D. The cost of ownership is often far greater than we think. E. We often mistakenly believe these items define who we are. F. That sounds logical, but the real reason is the sense of ownership itself. G. The inconsistency reveals we overvalue things just because we possess them. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I used to work in a center for people with alcohol use disorder in Aberdeen.

Just before the Games opened, a heavy snowstorm forced the cancellation of a women's downhill training run. This may seem like a typical winter disruption (干扰), ____57____ scientists see a more complex pattern. Climatologist Davide Faranda explained that climate change is not only reducing the number of freezing days overall, but also increasing the atmosphere's capacity ____58____ (hold) moisture (水分). When cold ____59____ (spell) do occur, they can now produce intense snowfall. At the same time, the Games themselves contributed to the problem.

Their parents had booked a small cabin at the edge of a forest, a place their father described as "a hidden world full of wonders." When they arrived, the siblings were immediately drawn to the quiet charm of the wooden cabin. It stood peacefully among tall pines, with sunlight flickering across its roof like dancing gold. Every morning, their father would take them into the woods, teaching them how to look at the forest the way a ranger would. He told them that trees facing the south usually grew thicker leaves because they got more sunlight. He showed them how to read little animal footprints, how to listen for streams, and how to find safe berries when they felt hungry. When the weather turned cloudy or rainy, the whole family would sit by the fireplace in the cabin, taking turns telling stories. The flames crackled cheerfully while shadows danced against the walls, creating a warm world of their own. One afternoon, however, their parents had to go out for a short errand. Before leaving, they reminded the siblings firmly not to go outside. David and Jane promised, but the promise didn't last long. The gentle sound of the stream outside the cabin windows was simply too tempting. David looked at his sister and whispered, "Why don't we go for a little adventure?
