阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Sound is measured in decibels (dB) (分贝) . There are many sounds in the environment, from rustling leaves (20 dB) to a normal conversation (60 dB) , from a screaming baby (80dB) to a subway train (100 dB) . Sounds that reach 85 dB or higher can harm a person's ears.
Permissible Exposure Time
How long can a person be exposed to a certain sound before risking hearing damage? According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, for every 3 dB sound Pressure level over 85 dB, the permissible exposure time is cut in half — before damage to Our hearing can occur.

Four Commonest Types of Noise Pollution
● Road vehicles are one major source of noise pollution. This is more concentrated in urban areas where there is a much higher number of vehicles.
● Fireworks, used generally for celebrations, are beautiful. However, they can be very loud, and scary! There is no real way of dealing with it, as fireworks are used so briefly.
● Construction work cause loud and disturbing noises which can make it hard to concentrate. Most countries have laws in place preventing construction work from taking place between certain times.
● Animals also cause noise pollution. For example, if you live on a road where somebody keeps their dog outside for hours on end while it barks constantly, that's really annoying.
Obviously, noise pollution is a widespread issue. But the consequences of this pollution are often underestimated. According to WHO estimates, at least 1 million healthy life-years are lost annually from traffic-related environmental noise alone in western Europe. It is time that the effects of noise pollution on public health receive more attention.
1. What is the permissible exposure time to the noise of a subway train?
A. 8 hours. B. 1 hour. C. 30 minutes. D. 15 minutes.
2. Which type of noise pollution already has legal restrictions in most countries?
A. Road vehicles. B. Fireworks. C. Construction work. D. Animals.
3. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A. There is a lack of attention to public health.
B. Noise pollution is most serious in western Europe.
C. Noise pollution has become the deadliest pollution.
D. There is insufficient awareness of the harm of noise pollution.
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. D

In a rough inner-city area in the eastern U. S., a small place was a lawless jungle. Broken glass, rubbish, and mindless drawings turned the space into a “no-go” zone for most of the residents. But one day, a small group of people living nearby decided that was enough. Seeking a resolution, they planned a project to turn the area into a community space, a space of healing, hope, and growth, not destruction and despair.
Moving in, the group realized that those who were using the space inappropriately early on must have a say. Then the group arranged a meeting, but no one came. Thinking outside the box, they started with one simple idea, building a white wall where anyone could leave their thoughts about the future of the site.
Not all of the suggestions were useful. But slowly, the group itself and others using the site began to see some progress. Those who would not usually have a voice in such discussions began to weigh in. They wrote things like “a place to meet up”, “a creative space” and so on. Someone else said, “Clean up first.”
The group began to clear the site, reusing materials that could be saved and removing the rest. One day, a couple of young men showed up and just started helping. Some other people passing by also took an interest and joined in. There were concerns that this would not last long, but over the weeks it remained. And, remarkably, someone even added a small side table. Colorful artwork was created.
The group added four small raised beds, planting crops in one of them. Gradually, as the greenery flourished, so did the bonds between the group and nearby residents. People who had never gardened before slowly got involved. The once-neglected corner blossomed into a bustling hub, a testament to the transformative power of collective hope and action.
4. What’s the aim of the project?
A. To make the land a community wonderland. B. To get local residents involved in art creation.
C. To restore the “no go” area to its original beauty. D. To turn the deserted jungle into a meeting place.
5. What was the challenge of the project at first?
A. People had to build a wall to voice their opinion.
B. People seemed indifferent to the project.
C. People continued using the space inappropriately.
D. People couldn’t surpass the obstacles of the ordinary thought.

A. Give assistance. B. Take notes. C. Make contributions. D. Offer opinions.
7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To clarify the importance of greenery.
B. To advocate establishing a harmonious ecosystem.
C. To sing high praise for neighboring collaboration.
D. To shed light on the community’s future plans.

Innovation consultants advise their clients to “think outside the box” to boost creativity and adaptability. So, what is this box, and how does one think outside it?
Originally, the “box” traces back to the nine-dot problem. The goal of this classic puzzle is simple: Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array (点阵) using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page.
If this puzzle has you stuck, you’re not alone. The nine equally spaced dots give the impression of a square or box. Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! In the correct solutions, the lines always extend outside of the square.
For starters, we’re not computers; we take mental shortcuts. We rely on life experience and context to make educated guesses when faced with ambiguous (含糊的) or partial information. In the nine-dot problem, we instantly recognize the pattern of a square, despite the missing lines.
We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers (认知吝啬鬼) — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. So, although we interpret situations quickly, we rarely doubt the truthfulness of these first impressions. As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the “box”.
Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. This practice naturally leads you to question the present situation and think unconventionally, breaking you free from the norm (标准). By definition, this sort of thinking is more original. An open and flexible mind also allows one to adapt more easily to unexpected situations. And best of all, you don’t have to be an innovator or entrepreneur to think outside the box. By embracing little changes, you’ll automatically become more flexible.
8. Which of the following is a possible answer to the 9-dot problem?
A. B. C. D.
9. What does the “box” refer to in the text?
A. Classic puzzles. B. Quick solutions.
C. False assumptions. D. Constant Innovations.
10. Which of the following is a reason for taking shortcuts?
A. A lack of reliable first impressions. B. Limited life experience and context.
C. Restricted creativity and imagination. D. A tendency to minimize cognitive effort.
11. What is the key to developing innovative thinking?
A. Understanding the norm. B. Exploring new perspectives.
C. Adapting to the changing world. D. Accepting unexpected situations.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以“九点谜题”为切入点,解释了“跳出盒子思考”的内涵,分析了人们受错误假设束缚的原因(依赖思维捷径、认知吝啬),并阐述了培养创新思维的关键在于从不同角度看问题、打破常规。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page. (用不超过四条直线连接9个点阵中的所有点,过程中笔尖不能离开纸面。)”可知,只有选项B符合要求。故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! (你可能会下意识地假定,线条必须画在点的边界范围内。而要解开这道谜题,你必须抛开这个假设——也就是说,你必须跳出盒子!)”及第五段中“As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the ‘box’. (结果就是,我们可能会被自己的错误假设所束缚,陷入‘盒子’之中。)”可知,“盒子”指的是人们在思考时形成的错误假设(如默认线条不能超出点阵边界)。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. (我们在时间或信息有限时会选择走捷径;换句话说,是因为我们别无选择。但我们也会出于习惯偷懒。用心理学家苏珊・菲斯克的话来说,我们都是‘认知吝啬鬼’——会尽可能少地消耗认知资源。)”可知,选择走捷径的原因在于人们倾向于尽可能减少认知消耗。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. (创新思维强调变革。它始于一个简单的举动:有意识地努力从不同角度看待事物。)”可知,培养创新思维的关键在于从不同角度看待事物,也就是探索新的视角。故选B。
D
Across the globe, dozens of lesser-known languages are slipping into extinction at an alarming rate. Dominated by mainstream languages like English, Spanish and Mandarin, modern globalization has marginalized (边缘化) hundreds of regional dialects and indigenous tongues, many of which are on the edge of being silenced forever. This often goes unnoticed by the wider world, yet it is happening every day in remote villages and communities. Linguists (语言学家) warn that if no effective intervention is conducted, nearly a third of the world’s 6,000 existing languages will die out within the next century.
The loss of a language involves far more than the loss of a communication tool. Each language serves as an invisible carrier of a nation’s collective memory, holding unique folk tales, traditional wisdom, and distinctive ways of perceiving the world. When a language dies, these unique perspectives may disappear with it, leaving no trace behind. Unlike standardized global languages that focus on efficiency and uniformity, minority languages boast subtle expressions and cultural richness that no mainstream language can replace. To lose a language, scholars emphasize, is to erase an irrecoverable part of human civilization’s diversity.
Admittedly, the irresistible trend of urbanization and cross-regional communication makes it impractical to preserve every dying language in its original form. After all, it is natural for people to seek more widely spoken languages for better job opportunities and social mobility. However, numerous grassroots communities and academic institutions have launched innovative campaigns to save endangered languages. Some add dialect teaching into local primary education; others record oral stories of elderly native speakers and digitize them for lasting preservation. Some young people even mix traditional dialects with pop music, making old tongues fashionable and accessible to the younger generation.
Preserving minority languages does not mean resisting globalization or rejecting dominant languages. Instead, it seeks to strike a delicate balance between global integration and cultural rootedness. A diverse linguistic landscape, as many researchers put it, is not a barrier to global connection, but a precious heritage that enriches and enlightens human society as a whole.
12. What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 1?
A. The spread of urbanization to remote communities.
B. The rapid disappearance of many minority languages.
C. The dominance of a few major languages worldwide.
D. The growing pressure on speakers of endangered languages.
13. Which aspect of minority languages is stressed in Paragraph 2?
A. Their tendency to go extinct. B. Their lack of regional features.
C. Their constant changes over time. D. Their irreplaceable cultural value.
14. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Efforts to save dying languages.
B. Solutions to driving urbanization.
C. Benefits of speaking mainstream languages.
D. Problems with cross-regional communication.
15. What is the author’s view on linguistic diversity?
A. It stands in the way of globalization.
B. It promotes the progress of human society.
C. It results from opposition to global integration.
D. It contributes to dominant languages’ development.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述全球化致使大量小众语言濒临消失,语言承载独特文化内涵,各界正多措并举加以保护,语言多样性能够丰富人类文明。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Across the globe, dozens of lesser-known languages are slipping into extinction at an alarming rate.(在全球范围内,数十种小众语言正以惊人的速度濒临消亡。)”可知,第一段描写了众多少数民族语言快速消亡的现象。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To lose a language, scholars emphasize, is to erase an irrecoverable part of human civilization’s diversity.(学者强调,一门语言的消亡意味着人类文明多样性中不可挽回的一部分就此消失。)”可知,第二段着重强调小众语言不可替代的文化价值。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“However, numerous grassroots communities and academic institutions have launched innovative campaigns to save endangered languages. Some add dialect teaching into local primary education; others record oral stories of elderly native speakers and digitize them for lasting preservation. Some young people even mix traditional dialects with pop music, making old tongues fashionable and accessible to the younger generation.(但众多基层社区与学术机构已开展特色创新活动,抢救濒危语言。一部分地区将方言纳入当地小学课程;还有团队寻访本土高龄长者、记录口述故事并数字化存档,实现长久留存。不少年轻人把传统方言和流行音乐融合,让古老方言焕发新潮,便于年轻一代接触学习。)”可知,本段主要介绍人们为挽救消亡语言所付出的各项努力。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“A diverse linguistic landscape, as many researchers put it, is not a barrier to global connection, but a precious heritage that enriches and enlightens human society as a whole.(多样的语言环境并非全球交流的阻碍,而是能丰富、启迪全人类社会的宝贵遗产。)” 可知,作者认为语言多样性能够推动人类社会进步。
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,共 12.5 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
When you get in a car, you expect it will have functioning brakes. When you pick up medicine at the drugstore, you expect it won’t be polluted. But it wasn’t always like this. The safety of these products was terrible when they first came to market. It took much research and regulation to figure out how users can enjoy the benefits of these products without getting harmed. ___16___
Social media risks are everywhere. The dangers that algorithms designed to maximize attention represent to teens have become impossible to ignore. Other product design elements, often called “dark patterns,” designed to keep people using for longer, also appear to tip young users into social media overuse. ___17___ They say it’s their users’ fault for engaging with harmful content in the first place, even if those users are children or the content is financial trickery. They also claim to be defending free speech.
___18___ Under the Digital Services Act, which came into effect in Europe this year, platforms are required to take action to stop the spread of illegal content and can be fined up to 6 percent of their global incomes if they don’t do so. If this law is enforced, maintaining the safety of their algorithms and networks will be the most financially sound decision for platforms to make.
Despite these efforts, two things are clear. First, online safety problems are leading to real, offline suffering. Second, social media companies can’t, or won’t, solve these safety problems on their own. ___19___ Even safety issues like cyberbullying that we thought were solved can pop right back up. As our society moves online to an ever-greater degree, the idea that anyone, even teens, can just “stay off social media” becomes less and less realistic. ___20___
A. And those problems aren’t going away.
B. The current issues aren’t really about offline suffering.
C. Platforms already have systems to remove violent or harmful content.
D. Similarly, social media needs product safety standards to keep users safe.
E. It’s time we should require social media to take safety seriously, for everyone’s sake.
F. Internet platforms, however, have shifted blame on the consumers whenever criticized.
G. Some authorities are taking steps to hold social media platforms accountable for the content.
【答案】16. D 17. F 18. G 19. A 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了社交媒体存在风险,平台常推卸责任,欧洲已实施相关法规,而线上安全问题引发线下痛苦,且社交媒体公司难以独自解决,人们也越来越难以远离社交媒体。
【16题详解】
根据上文的“When you get in a car, you expect it will have functioning brakes. When you pick up medicine at the drugstore, you expect it won’t be polluted. But it wasn’t always like this. The safety of these products was terrible when they first came to market. It took much research and regulation to figure out how users can enjoy the benefits of these products without getting harmed. (当你坐进一辆车的时候,你希望它的刹车能正常工作。当你在药店买药时,你希望它不会被污染。但事情并不总是这样的。这些产品刚上市时安全性很差。为了弄清楚用户如何在不受伤害的情况下享受这些产品的好处,需要进行大量的研究和监管)”可知,此段讲述的是其他产品都有安全标准,接着下文提到社交媒体的风险无处不在,说明社交媒体也需要产品安全标准来保护用户安全,D项(同样,社交媒体也需要产品安全标准来保证用户的安全)符合文意。故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据下文的“They say it’s their users’ fault for engaging with harmful content in the first place, even if those users are children or the content is financial trickery. They also claim to be defending free speech.(他们说,用户一开始接触有害内容是他们的错,即使这些用户是孩子,或者内容是金融骗局。他们还声称是在捍卫言论自由)可知,社交媒体将问题推卸给用户,F项(然而,每当受到批评时,互联网平台就把责任推给消费者)引出下文,符合文意。故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据下文的“Under the Digital Services Act, which came into effect in Europe this year, platforms are required to take action to stop the spread of illegal content and can be fined up to 6 percent of their global incomes if they don’t do so. If this law is enforced, maintaining the safety of their algorithms and networks will be the most financially sound decision for platforms to make.(根据今年在欧洲生效的《数字服务法案》(Digital Services Act),平台必须采取行动阻止非法内容的传播,如果不这样做,将被处以最高相当于其全球收入6%的罚款。如果这项法律得到执行,维护其算法和网络的安全将是平台做出的最经济合理的决定)”可知,说明一些权威机构正在采取措施让社交媒体平台对其内容负责,G选项(一些当局正在采取措施,要求社交媒体平台对这些内容负责)符合文意。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据上文的“Despite these efforts, two things are clear. First, online safety problems are leading to real, offline suffering. Second, social media companies can’t, or won’t, solve these safety problems on their own. (尽管做出了这些努力,但有两件事是明确的。首先,网络安全问题正在导致现实的、线下的痛苦。其次,社交媒体公司不能或不愿独自解决这些安全问题)可知,此段首先提到两个明确的事情,结合下文“Even safety issues like cyberbullying that we thought were solved can pop right back up.(即使是我们认为已经解决的安全问题,比如网络欺凌,也会再次出现)”接着说明问题不会消失,A选项(这些问题不会消失)引出下文,符合文意。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据上文的“Even safety issues like cyberbullying that we thought were solved can pop right back up. As our society moves online to an ever-greater degree, the idea that anyone, even teens, can just “stay off social media” becomes less and less realistic.(即使是我们认为已经解决的安全问题,比如网络欺凌,也会再次出现。随着我们的社会网络化程度越来越高,任何人,甚至青少年,都可以“远离社交媒体”的想法变得越来越不现实)”,最后一段提到随着社会越来越依赖网络,让任何人远离社交媒体变得不太现实,所以为了每个人的利益,是时候要求社交媒体认真对待安全问题了,E项(为了每个人,现在是时候要求社交媒体认真对待安全问题了)总结上文。故选E项。
第三部分 语言运用(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Ten-year-old Sami loved to visit his grandfather’s house. The house was near the beautiful blue sea. At the seaside stood thick and tall palm trees with green coconuts hanging from them. When the coconuts fell down, Sami would break them open and drink the coconut water. Sami liked to play under the trees. It was always great fun to spend the holidays at Grandpa’s place.
This winter vacation, Sami was surprised when he came to his grandfather’s village. There were hardly any trees left. He saw houses built near the sea. People had cut down many palm trees and there was hardly any greenery left.
Grandpa’s house was different. He never allowed his trees to be cut. He hugged each palm tree in his courtyard. He also named the two big trees near the front door — one was Petu, and the other Betu. He had planted them with his own hands and today they had become large, massive trees with thick trunks. They were tall and green and gave the sweetest, juicest coconuts.
One night, Sami was awakened by a strange sound. He could not sleep. He tossed (辗转) and turned in bed.
Suddenly, the ground shook as if the earth was splitting. He sat up straight and then ran to Grandpa. He clung (附着) to his grandpa tightly. Grandpa cried out, “It’s an earthquake It’s an earthquake” They ran outside the house. They thought that would be safe.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound; the earth was not splitting but the sea was roaring. People were shouting, screaming and crying, “The sea is rising. The sea is rising.” The villagers started running away from the beach.
Sami watched dumbstruck (呆若木鸡).
The waves were rising higher and higher. Sami thought, “How big the waves are” He went into the house again and saw water coming in from all sides. He was scared.
Sami remembered his mother telling him long ago, “You must always get out of the house if the floods come too near.” He ran outside the house with Grandpa. But the water came surging (汹涌) in.
Waves about twelve meters high came rushing in, drowning everything. Water was all around and everywhere.
Paragraph 1: Grandpa held Sami’s hand tightly but a huge wave separated them.

Paragraph 12: “Sami, Sami” Grandpa cried. “Don’t be scared, little one, come to me, quickly.” “But Grandpa, I can’t swim” Another wave came with terrifying speed and force. Sami cried in despair. Suddenly, Sami felt himself thrown onto the top of a tree. He immediately held it. Looking around, he saw everything was terribly destroyed; but in the near distance, his Grandpa was on another tree. Soon it was calm; both Grandpa and Sami came down the trees and rushed to hug each other, then they hugged the trees with tears of gratitude.(78 words)
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了十岁的萨米喜欢去祖父家,那里有美丽的大海和棕榈树。今年寒假,他发现村里很多树被砍,只有祖父的树保留着。一天夜里发生地震和海啸,萨米和祖父被海浪分开,幸运的是他们各自抓住棕榈树幸存下来,之后相拥并感激这些树的故事。

A
Sound is measured in decibels (dB) (分贝) . There are many sounds in the environment, from rustling leaves (20 dB) to a normal conversation (60 dB) , from a screaming baby (80dB) to a subway train (100 dB) . Sounds that reach 85 dB or higher can harm a person's ears.
Permissible Exposure Time
How long can a person be exposed to a certain sound before risking hearing damage? According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, for every 3 dB sound Pressure level over 85 dB, the permissible exposure time is cut in half — before damage to Our hearing can occur.

Four Commonest Types of Noise Pollution
● Road vehicles are one major source of noise pollution. This is more concentrated in urban areas where there is a much higher number of vehicles.
● Fireworks, used generally for celebrations, are beautiful. However, they can be very loud, and scary! There is no real way of dealing with it, as fireworks are used so briefly.
● Construction work cause loud and disturbing noises which can make it hard to concentrate. Most countries have laws in place preventing construction work from taking place between certain times.
● Animals also cause noise pollution. For example, if you live on a road where somebody keeps their dog outside for hours on end while it barks constantly, that's really annoying.
Obviously, noise pollution is a widespread issue. But the consequences of this pollution are often underestimated. According to WHO estimates, at least 1 million healthy life-years are lost annually from traffic-related environmental noise alone in western Europe. It is time that the effects of noise pollution on public health receive more attention.
1. What is the permissible exposure time to the noise of a subway train?
A. 8 hours. B. 1 hour. C. 30 minutes. D. 15 minutes.
2. Which type of noise pollution already has legal restrictions in most countries?
A. Road vehicles. B. Fireworks. C. Construction work. D. Animals.
3. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A. There is a lack of attention to public health.
B. Noise pollution is most serious in western Europe.
C. Noise pollution has become the deadliest pollution.
D. There is insufficient awareness of the harm of noise pollution.
B
In a rough inner-city area in the eastern U. S., a small place was a lawless jungle. Broken glass, rubbish, and mindless drawings turned the space into a “no-go” zone for most of the residents. But one day, a small group of people living nearby decided that was enough. Seeking a resolution, they planned a project to turn the area into a community space, a space of healing, hope, and growth, not destruction and despair.
Moving in, the group realized that those who were using the space inappropriately early on must have a say. Then the group arranged a meeting, but no one came. Thinking outside the box, they started with one simple idea, building a white wall where anyone could leave their thoughts about the future of the site.
Not all of the suggestions were useful. But slowly, the group itself and others using the site began to see some progress. Those who would not usually have a voice in such discussions began to weigh in. They wrote things like “a place to meet up”, “a creative space” and so on. Someone else said, “Clean up first.”
The group began to clear the site, reusing materials that could be saved and removing the rest. One day, a couple of young men showed up and just started helping. Some other people passing by also took an interest and joined in. There were concerns that this would not last long, but over the weeks it remained. And, remarkably, someone even added a small side table. Colorful artwork was created.
The group added four small raised beds, planting crops in one of them. Gradually, as the greenery flourished, so did the bonds between the group and nearby residents. People who had never gardened before slowly got involved. The once-neglected corner blossomed into a bustling hub, a testament to the transformative power of collective hope and action.
4. What’s the aim of the project?
A. To make the land a community wonderland. B. To get local residents involved in art creation.
C. To restore the “no go” area to its original beauty. D. To turn the deserted jungle into a meeting place.
5. What was the challenge of the project at first?
A. People had to build a wall to voice their opinion.
B. People seemed indifferent to the project.
C. People continued using the space inappropriately.
D. People couldn’t surpass the obstacles of the ordinary thought.
6. What does the underlined phrase “weigh in” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Give assistance. B. Take notes. C. Make contributions. D. Offer opinions.
7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To clarify the importance of greenery.
B. To advocate establishing a harmonious ecosystem.
C. To sing high praise for neighboring collaboration.
D. To shed light on the community’s future plans.
C
Innovation consultants advise their clients to “think outside the box” to boost creativity and adaptability. So, what is this box, and how does one think outside it?
Originally, the “box” traces back to the nine-dot problem. The goal of this classic puzzle is simple: Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array (点阵) using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page.
If this puzzle has you stuck, you’re not alone. The nine equally spaced dots give the impression of a square or box. Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! In the correct solutions, the lines always extend outside of the square.
For starters, we’re not computers; we take mental shortcuts. We rely on life experience and context to make educated guesses when faced with ambiguous (含糊的) or partial information. In the nine-dot problem, we instantly recognize the pattern of a square, despite the missing lines.
We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers (认知吝啬鬼) — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. So, although we interpret situations quickly, we rarely doubt the truthfulness of these first impressions. As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the “box”.
Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. This practice naturally leads you to question the present situation and think unconventionally, breaking you free from the norm (标准). By definition, this sort of thinking is more original. An open and flexible mind also allows one to adapt more easily to unexpected situations. And best of all, you don’t have to be an innovator or entrepreneur to think outside the box. By embracing little changes, you’ll automatically become more flexible.
8. Which of the following is a possible answer to the 9-dot problem?
A. B. C. D.
9. What does the “box” refer to in the text?
A. Classic puzzles. B. Quick solutions.
C. False assumptions. D. Constant Innovations.
10. Which of the following is a reason for taking shortcuts?
A. A lack of reliable first impressions. B. Limited life experience and context.
C. Restricted creativity and imagination. D. A tendency to minimize cognitive effort.
11. What is the key to developing innovative thinking?
A. Understanding the norm. B. Exploring new perspectives.
C. Adapting to the changing world. D. Accepting unexpected situations.
D
Across the globe, dozens of lesser-known languages are slipping into extinction at an alarming rate. Dominated by mainstream languages like English, Spanish and Mandarin, modern globalization has marginalized (边缘化) hundreds of regional dialects and indigenous tongues, many of which are on the edge of being silenced forever. This often goes unnoticed by the wider world, yet it is happening every day in remote villages and communities. Linguists (语言学家) warn that if no effective intervention is conducted, nearly a third of the world’s 6,000 existing languages will die out within the next century.
The loss of a language involves far more than the loss of a communication tool. Each language serves as an invisible carrier of a nation’s collective memory, holding unique folk tales, traditional wisdom, and distinctive ways of perceiving the world. When a language dies, these unique perspectives may disappear with it, leaving no trace behind. Unlike standardized global languages that focus on efficiency and uniformity, minority languages boast subtle expressions and cultural richness that no mainstream language can replace. To lose a language, scholars emphasize, is to erase an irrecoverable part of human civilization’s diversity.
Admittedly, the irresistible trend of urbanization and cross-regional communication makes it impractical to preserve every dying language in its original form. After all, it is natural for people to seek more widely spoken languages for better job opportunities and social mobility. However, numerous grassroots communities and academic institutions have launched innovative campaigns to save endangered languages. Some add dialect teaching into local primary education; others record oral stories of elderly native speakers and digitize them for lasting preservation. Some young people even mix traditional dialects with pop music, making old tongues fashionable and accessible to the younger generation.
Preserving minority languages does not mean resisting globalization or rejecting dominant languages. Instead, it seeks to strike a delicate balance between global integration and cultural rootedness. A diverse linguistic landscape, as many researchers put it, is not a barrier to global connection, but a precious heritage that enriches and enlightens human society as a whole.
12. What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 1?
A. The spread of urbanization to remote communities.
B. The rapid disappearance of many minority languages.
C. The dominance of a few major languages worldwide.
D. The growing pressure on speakers of endangered languages.
13. Which aspect of minority languages is stressed in Paragraph 2?
A. Their tendency to go extinct. B. Their lack of regional features.
C. Their constant changes over time. D. Their irreplaceable cultural value.
14. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Efforts to save dying languages.
B. Solutions to driving urbanization.
C. Benefits of speaking mainstream languages.
D. Problems with cross-regional communication.
15. What is the author’s view on linguistic diversity?
A. It stands in the way of globalization.
B. It promotes the progress of human society.
C. It results from opposition to global integration.
D. It contributes to dominant languages’ development.

根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
When you get in a car, you expect it will have functioning brakes. When you pick up medicine at the drugstore, you expect it won’t be polluted. But it wasn’t always like this. The safety of these products was terrible when they first came to market. It took much research and regulation to figure out how users can enjoy the benefits of these products without getting harmed. ___16___
Social media risks are everywhere. The dangers that algorithms designed to maximize attention represent to teens have become impossible to ignore. Other product design elements, often called “dark patterns,” designed to keep people using for longer, also appear to tip young users into social media overuse. ___17___ They say it’s their users’ fault for engaging with harmful content in the first place, even if those users are children or the content is financial trickery. They also claim to be defending free speech.
___18___ Under the Digital Services Act, which came into effect in Europe this year, platforms are required to take action to stop the spread of illegal content and can be fined up to 6 percent of their global incomes if they don’t do so. If this law is enforced, maintaining the safety of their algorithms and networks will be the most financially sound decision for platforms to make.
Despite these efforts, two things are clear. First, online safety problems are leading to real, offline suffering. Second, social media companies can’t, or won’t, solve these safety problems on their own. ___19___ Even safety issues like cyberbullying that we thought were solved can pop right back up. As our society moves online to an ever-greater degree, the idea that anyone, even teens, can just “stay off social media” becomes less and less realistic. ___20___
A. And those problems aren’t going away.
B. The current issues aren’t really about offline suffering.
C. Platforms already have systems to remove violent or harmful content.
D. Similarly, social media needs product safety standards to keep users safe.
E. It’s time we should require social media to take safety seriously, for everyone’s sake.
F. Internet platforms, however, have shifted blame on the consumers whenever criticized.
G. Some authorities are taking steps to hold social media platforms accountable for the content.

71. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Ten-year-old Sami loved to visit his grandfather’s house. The house was near the beautiful blue sea. At the seaside stood thick and tall palm trees with green coconuts hanging from them. When the coconuts fell down, Sami would break them open and drink the coconut water. Sami liked to play under the trees. It was always great fun to spend the holidays at Grandpa’s place.
This winter vacation, Sami was surprised when he came to his grandfather’s village. There were hardly any trees left. He saw houses built near the sea. People had cut down many palm trees and there was hardly any greenery left.
Grandpa’s house was different. He never allowed his trees to be cut. He hugged each palm tree in his courtyard. He also named the two big trees near the front door — one was Petu, and the other Betu. He had planted them with his own hands and today they had become large, massive trees with thick trunks. They were tall and green and gave the sweetest, juicest coconuts.
One night, Sami was awakened by a strange sound. He could not sleep. He tossed (辗转) and turned in bed.
Suddenly, the ground shook as if the earth was splitting. He sat up straight and then ran to Grandpa. He clung (附着) to his grandpa tightly. Grandpa cried out, “It’s an earthquake It’s an earthquake” They ran outside the house. They thought that would be safe.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound; the earth was not splitting but the sea was roaring. People were shouting, screaming and crying, “The sea is rising. The sea is rising.” The villagers started running away from the beach.
Sami watched dumbstruck (呆若木鸡).
The waves were rising higher and higher. Sami thought, “How big the waves are” He went into the house again and saw water coming in from all sides. He was scared.
Sami remembered his mother telling him long ago, “You must always get out of the house if the floods come too near.” He ran outside the house with Grandpa. But the water came surging (汹涌) in.
Waves about twelve meters high came rushing in, drowning everything. Water was all around and everywhere.
Paragraph 1: Grandpa held Sami’s hand tightly but a huge wave separated them.
