Here’s a report revealing fraud against CYP in 2025 in England and Wales. Scale of fraud 70% of CYP aged 13-21 were targeted by fraud in the last year. Nearly a third of CYP have been a victim of fraud. Only 1% of CYP have never encountered fraud. Some CYP are more likely to experience fraud victimization, including older CYP (aged 18-21) and CYP with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. Methods used by fraudsters ✲ A message from a stranger asking for your personal details: 30% ✲A spam email or other online message with a suspicious link: 24% ✲ Pop-up window asking you to click on a suspicious link: 24% ✲Someone pretending to be your friend or family member: 20% ✲ A message from a stranger asking for your bank account details or for money: 18% Action plan The findings of this report have been used to inform an action plan which sets out how key authorities can help prevent fraud experienced by CYP, minimize its impact and improve their understanding of what fraud is and how it may present. Actions Actors The Home Office/ Department for Education (DfE) should produce a separate strategy meant for CYP. Government, Home Office, DfE Existing networks such as the Joint Fraud Taskforce should include child protection experts and a DfE representative. DfE, child protection experts Private sector actors are encouraged to tackle fraud against CYP, for example the Online Safety Act should be updated to require social media companies to protect children from fraudulent content‌. Social media companies, banks 1. What can we learn about CYP fraud from the scale data? A. Disabled CYP are free from fraud attacks. B. Most CYP have never met fraud-related tricks. C. Almost all CYP have come across fraudsters. D. Young teens face higher fraud risk than 18-21-year-olds. 2. What do the fraud methods have in common? A. They involve identity theft. B. They are conducted remotely. C. They are carried out by friends. D. They lead to investment losses. 3. What are private sectors expected to do to protect CYP? A. Add experts into existing working groups. B. Draw up independent national safety rules. C. Update related laws to block fraudulent content. D. Stop young people from using online platforms. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一份关于2025年英格兰和威尔士儿童和青少年遭受诈骗情况的调查报告，并提出了相应的行动计划。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Scale of fraud部分的描述“Only 1% of CYP have never encountered fraud. (仅有1%的儿童和青少年从未遇到过诈骗)”可知，几乎所有儿童和青少年都遇到过诈骗相关的事情。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Methods used by fraudsters部分的“A message from a stranger asking for your personal details (陌生人发来的索要个人信息的消息)”、“A spam email or other online message with a suspicious link (带有可疑链接的垃圾邮件或其他在线消息)”、“Pop-up window asking you to click on a suspicious link (要求点击可疑链接的弹窗)”、“Someone pretending to be your friend or family member (假装是你的朋友或家人的人)”、“A message from a stranger asking for your bank account details or for money (陌生人发来的索要银行账户信息或钱财的消息)”可知，这些方法都是通过互联网远程进行的，无需面对面接触。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Action plan表格中“Social media companies, banks”对应的措施“Private sector actors are encouraged to tackle fraud against CYP, for example the Online Safety Act should be updated to require social media companies to protect children from fraudulent content. (鼓励私营部门参与者应对针对儿童和青少年的诈骗，例如应更新《在线安全法》，要求社交媒体公司保护儿童免受欺诈内容侵害)”可知，应更新《在线安全法》等相关法律，要求私营部门落实保护儿童免受欺诈内容侵害的责任。 B Woodpeckers (啄木鸟) hopped into my life in an unexpected place. As a young boy of eight or nine, I peered impatiently through the kitchen window into the backyard, waiting for the rain to stop so I might escape my tame suburban home to a wilder place where I could watch more than American Robins (知更鸟). Suddenly, a bird caught my attention. As it bounced closer, the bright red mustache, and veins of orange on the tail and wings revealed it was a male woodpecker! With what seemed like an explosion of red feathers, he was gone. From that moment on, I read everything I could about woodpeckers. Instantly I became a woodpecker enthusiast. Since that day, the call of the woodpecker has led me on many journeys from my backyard to distant continents and inspired me to rise before the sun so that their syncopated (切分节奏的) drumming might allow me to find them, follow them, and learn about their mysterious lives before they disappear back into the trees. My fascination has only grown over the years as I noticed that no matter where I was in North America, as long as there were large trees and surrounding natural landscape, there was at least one species of woodpecker to trigger my wonder at the richness around me and the woodpecker’s role in enhancing it. My book Woodpecker contains an exploration of the lives of the forty-one species of woodpeckers in North America. In telling the stories of these woodpeckers, I focus my lens, narrative, and anecdotes on the species and behaviors that are most representative, while also highlighting interesting exceptions and contrasts. I hope that by sharing intimate images and stories from the more secreted moments of their life histories, I can motivate people to better appreciate their critical role in enhancing our natural world and perhaps inspire the long-term protection of these birds and the habitats that they rely upon. 4. What do we know about the author from paragraph 1? A. He was bored of bird-watching. B. He hated leaving his suburban home. C. He longed to see more varied wildlife. D. He loved American Robins very much. 5. The author’s fascination with woodpeckers began with ______. A. his determination to make a change B. a single, unexpected childhood sighting C. some research on their beautiful feathers D. books that introduced him to woodpeckers 6. Why has the author’s love for woodpeckers grown? A. They lead him to many different places. B. Their distinctive sounds have amazed him. C. They enable him to uncover the world’s mysteries. D. Their widespread presence helps him see nature’s richness. 7. What is the key strength of the author’s book? A. It centers on rare woodpecker species. B. It covers all woodpecker species in detail. C. It reveals the threats to woodpeckers’ survival. D. It features typical species and interesting exceptions. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】作者幼时偶遇啄木鸟后深深着迷，多年追寻观察各地啄木鸟，写下专著，记述北美全部啄木鸟，借画面故事展现其生态价值，呼吁保护鸟类与栖息地。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As a young boy of eight or nine, I peered impatiently through the kitchen window into the backyard, waiting for the rain to stop so I might escape my tame suburban home to a wilder place where I could watch more than American Robins (知更鸟).(八九岁的小男孩时，我总是迫不及待地从厨房的窗户望向后院，等待雨停，好能逃离那座安逸的郊区住宅，去到更野一些的地方，看一眼除了知更鸟之外的其他鸟类)”可知，作者渴望看到更多种类的野生动物。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Suddenly, a bird caught my attention. As it bounced closer, the bright red mustache, and veins of orange on the tail and wings revealed it was a male woodpecker! With what seemed like an explosion of red feathers, he was gone. From that moment on, I read everything I could about woodpeckers.(突然，一只鸟引起了我的注意。当它飞近时，鲜艳的红色胡须以及尾部和翅膀上的橙色脉络，让我意识到那是一只雄性啄木鸟！只见它像爆发了一团红色羽毛般迅速飞走。从那一刻起，我开始阅读关于啄木鸟的一切我能找到的信息)”可知，作者对啄木鸟的痴迷始于童年时一次意外的偶遇。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“My fascination has only grown over the years as I noticed that no matter where I was in North America, as long as there were large trees and surrounding natural landscape, there was at least one species of woodpecker to trigger my wonder at the richness around me and the woodpecker’s role in enhancing it.(多年来，我的兴趣愈发浓厚。我发现，无论我在北美洲的哪个地方，只要周围有大树和自然景观，总会有一种啄木鸟出现，让我对身边丰富的自然环境以及啄木鸟在其中所起的作用感到惊叹不已)”可知，作者对啄木鸟的喜爱日益加深是因为它们的广泛存在帮助他看到大自然的丰富。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In telling the stories of these woodpeckers, I focus my lens, narrative, and anecdotes on the species and behaviors that are most representative, while also highlighting interesting exceptions and contrasts.(在讲述这些啄木鸟的故事时，我将镜头、叙述和轶事聚焦于最具代表性的物种与行为，同时突出一些有趣的例外情况和对比)”可知，作者的书涵盖了典型的物种和有趣的例外情况。 C Scroll through #SingingDog posts on social media, and you will find many clips of dogs howling (嗥叫) along to their favourite tunes. But can these doggy “singers” show any real musicality? That’s the question that psychologist Aniruddh Patel and his colleagues at Tufts University have attempted to answer with an ear-catching new study, which shows some dogs really are perceiving pitch (音高) and adjusting their “singing” accordingly. The idea for the study came from descriptions of wolves’ howling in a pack. Observations from the wild suggest that each wolf attempts to hit a different tone. The result is a rough mixture of sounds that might create the impression of a much larger group, which would help frighten away potential enemies. “And so it had been theorised that they were actually paying attention and changing their pitch,” says Patel. This is very hard to test experimentally, of course, which is why Patel and his colleagues turned to house pets. They asked a handful of dog owners to record their dogs howling to their personally preferred track-first in the original key and then in versions that had been changed three semitones above and three semitones below-to see how they would respond to the change in pitch. The team focused their analyses on two ancient breeds (品种), Samoyeds and Shiba Inus, that are thought to be more closely related to their wolf ancestors. All four of the Samoyeds studied showed some sensitivity to the track’s pitch, consistently adapting their howls to the new key, though not perfectly. “They’re trying to match their own voice to what they hear; they’re not just making some instinctive and inflexible response,” says Patel. The two Shiba Inus, in contrast, appeared to be tone-deaf. He believes genetic variation may explain the gap. The findings might shed light on the origins of human music. Some theorists have argued singing evolved from speech-related sound control, but the fact that dogs can also control pitch without any other forms of vocal learning suggests that language may not have been necessary at the beginning. 8. What first inspired Patel to study dogs’ musical ability? A. Theories of sound control. B. Dogs’ singing videos on social media. C. Observations of wild hunting. D. Wolves’ tone awareness in pack howling. 9. What aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its design. B. Its purpose. C. Its subject. D. Its significance. 10. What does the study find according to paragraph 4? A. Genes decide dogs’ pitch. B. Dogs’ responses to pitches differ. C. Dogs are music-insensitive. D. Musicality is shared across species. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Are Dogs Born Singers? B. Can Dogs Learn to Sing? C. What Tunes Do Dogs Prefer? D. Which Dogs Like Music Most? 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了科学家受狼群嚎叫启发，实验发现萨摩耶能感知音高并调整嚎叫，柴犬却不行。该发现为探究人类音乐起源提供新思路，证明乐感未必依托语言产生。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The idea for the study came from descriptions of wolves’ howling in a pack. Observations from the wild suggest that each wolf attempts to hit a different tone.(这项研究的灵感来源于对狼群嚎叫的描述。野外观察表明，每只狼都会尝试发出不同的音调)”可知，狼群在嚎叫时对声音的感知最初促使帕特尔研究狗的音乐能力。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“This is very hard to test experimentally, of course, which is why Patel and his colleagues turned to house pets. They asked a handful of dog owners to record their dogs howling to their personally preferred track-first in the original key and then in versions that had been changed three semitones above and three semitones below-to see how they would respond to the change in pitch. The team focused their analyses on two ancient breeds (品种), Samoyeds and Shiba Inus, that are thought to be more closely related to their wolf ancestors.(当然，这在实验上非常难以测试，因此帕特尔和他的同事们转而研究家养宠物。他们邀请了几位狗主人记录他们的狗在听到自己最喜爱的原始音调以及上下各三个半音的版本时发出的吠叫，以观察它们对音高变化的反应。研究团队将分析重点放在了两个被认为与狼祖先关系更近的古老犬种——萨摩耶和柴犬上)”可知，第三段主要讨论了研究的设计。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“All four of the Samoyeds studied showed some sensitivity to the track’s pitch, consistently adapting their howls to the new key, though not perfectly. “They’re trying to match their own voice to what they hear; they’re not just making some instinctive and inflexible response,” says Patel. The two Shiba Inus, in contrast, appeared to be tone-deaf. He believes genetic variation may explain the gap.(研究中的四只萨摩耶犬都对音轨的音高表现出一定的敏感性，它们会持续地根据新音调调整自己的嚎叫，尽管并不完全准确。帕特尔表示：“它们试图将自己的声音与所听到的声音相匹配，而不仅仅是做出一些本能且僵化的反应。”相比之下，两只柴犬似乎五音不全。他认为，这种差异可能与基因差异有关)”可知，这项研究发现狗对音调的反应不同。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The findings might shed light on the origins of human music. Some theorists have argued singing evolved from speech-related sound control, but the fact that dogs can also control pitch without any other forms of vocal learning suggests that language may not have been necessary at the beginning.(这些发现或许有助于揭示人类音乐的起源。一些理论家认为，歌唱是从与语言相关的发声控制中演化而来的，但狗也能在没有任何其他形式的发声学习的情况下控制音高，这表明语言在最初可能并非必要)”结合文章主要说明了科学家受狼群嚎叫启发，实验发现萨摩耶能感知音高并调整嚎叫，柴犬却不行。该发现为探究人类音乐起源提供新思路，证明乐感未必依托语言产生。可知，A选项“狗是天生的歌手吗？”最符合文章标题。 D In an era dominated by short-form content and instant gratification (即时满足), poetry is often regarded as an outdated literary form. Critics argue that its complex images, unusual rhyme patterns, and symbolic language make it difficult for modern readers to appreciate. Yet poetry’s value has not faded; rather, it has grown increasingly essential. Poetry allows individuals to express complex emotions and experiences in a way that standard language is unable to. Life is complex and often rejects a simple interpretation of its hardships, so it makes sense that poetry does the same. Poet Dylan Thomas wrote, “A poem may make us laugh, cry, think deeply, or remain silent.” In an age marked by emotional pressure and uncertainty, poetry offers both writers and readers a healing release, helping them find connection in shared human experiences, whether those are about love, loss or joy. Moreover, poetry plays a vital role in helping young people reflect and think deeply about social, political and cultural issues in this modern age. The rise of social media has conditioned the brain to seek quick fixes, weakening the ability for deep thinking and reflection. Reading a complicated poem — with its packed verses and layered meanings — can force readers to slow down and explore language rather than mindlessly snack on information, which might lead to an improvement in analytical and critical thinking skills. Poetry, as an art form, also encourages creativity. Individuals can break free from traditional forms of expression and experiment with language, rhythm, structure and sound. Besides, poetry invites writers to dive deeply into emotions and ideas, allowing new insights and perspectives to be uncovered. Hence, poetry gains its significance in a society that highly values creativity. Admittedly, poetry may never recover the popularity it once held during the Victorian era. It would be unrealistic to expect everyone to enjoy The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot. Yet readers can learn to appreciate poems that both challenge and entertain. Poetry still matters — not despite its difficulty, but because of it. 12. What is critics’ view on poetry in modern times? A. It lacks deep meanings. B. It fails to relate to modern life. C. It discourages average readers. D. It falls short of symbolic images. 13. What is the value of poetry according to paragraph 2? A. Providing instant pleasure. B. Creating new literary trends. C. Offering emotional connection. D. Encouraging social interaction. 14. What do the underlined words “snack on” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Dig into. B. Glance through. C. Reflect on. D. Sort out. 15. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Difficulty sustains poetry’s appeal. B. Poetry will regain its popularity. C. Readers dislike challenging poems. D. Everyone is expected to read poetry. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章以“诗歌在现代社会的价值”为核心论点，通过驳斥批评观点、分述诗歌的多重作用，结合引用与对比论证，层层递进地阐述诗歌在当代的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Critics argue that its complex images, unusual rhyme patterns, and symbolic language make it difficult for modern readers to appreciate. (批评家认为，其复杂的意象、不寻常的韵律模式和象征性语言使现代读者难以欣赏。)”可知，批评家认为诗歌让普通读者望而却步。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“In an age marked by emotional pressure and uncertainty, poetry offers both writers and readers a healing release, helping them find connection in shared human experiences, whether those are about love, loss or joy. (在一个充满情感压力和不确定性的时代，诗歌为作者和读者提供了治愈的释放，帮助他们在共同的人类经历中找到联结，无论是关于爱、失去还是喜悦。)”可知，诗歌的价值在于提供情感联结。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段的语境“Reading a complicated poem — with its packed verses and layered meanings — can force readers to slow down and explore language rather than mindlessly snack on information (阅读一首复杂的诗——诗节紧凑，含义层次分明——可以迫使读者放慢速度、探索语言，而不是无意识地snack on信息)”，rather than表示对比，前文是“slow down and explore (放慢探索)”，后文应是与之相反的快速浏览。故snack on意为“粗略浏览、快速消费”，与glance through意思相近。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的句子“Poetry still matters — not despite its difficulty, but because of it. (诗歌依旧意义非凡——并非因为它晦涩难懂，恰恰是因为这份晦涩(才更显珍贵)。)”可知，难度恰恰维持了诗歌的吸引力。 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。 Touching movies, stressful events at home or work, and even good news like a wedding or a baby might bring on the waterworks. ____16____ But you might not know that crying can have a big effect on your body and mind — here’s how. ● Crying relieves stress. Humans are the only species to weep from emotions, but scientists still don’t know exactly how the physical act of crying is connected to our feelings. ____17____ Maybe it helps relieve the physical tension of feeling upset. In other words, crying occurs as our body returns from an aroused “fight or flight” state to a calm “rest and digest” state. ● ____18____ You might think that crying would make you feel better if it means your stress is relieved — it does, sometimes. “In surveys about two-thirds of people generally report feeling better after crying,” says Jonathan Rottenberg, a professor at the University of South Florida. In many cases, however, the better mood after having cried is the consequence of receiving emotional support and comfort. ● Crying strengthens bonds. When we communicate with others through tears, we are revealing our own vulnerability (脆弱). “With supportive people, it can create an increased feeling of bonding and connection,” Dr. Orloff says. “You trust the person enough to cry around them.” ____19____ And this can promote an empathetic response and an emotional connection. ● Crying helps us get what we want. Tears can be a way to cause a specific reaction that works in our favor. ____20____ Even if we don’t mean to control others, our crying may have the result of easing anger and making others feel guilty or more willing to bend to our will. A. Crying boosts mood. B. Crying lets you release emotions in private. C. Sometimes, you just need to let the tears flow. D. Why do we cry when we’re sad (and sometimes happy)? E. Crying is, therefore, a signal that we feel close to someone. F. So, it may take a while before crying makes you feel better. G. Anyone who’s ever cried after getting pulled over for speeding knows that. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. A 19. E 20. G 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了感人影片、悲喜大事都能让人落泪，哭泣可减压、改善情绪、拉近人际，还能促使他人让步，对身心有多方面影响。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Touching movies, stressful events at home or work, and even good news like a wedding or a baby might bring on the waterworks.(感人的电影、家庭或工作中的压力事件，甚至像婚礼或新生儿这样的好消息，都可能引发情绪波动)”以及后文“But you might not know that crying can have a big effect on your body and mind — here’s how.(但你可能不知道，哭泣会对你的身体和心理产生重大影响——具体是这样)”可知，第一段开头提到多种场景都会引发哭泣，空后转折指出人们大多不了解哭泣对身心的好处，C项“有时候你就是需要让眼泪流出来”符合上下文衔接。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Humans are the only species to weep from emotions, but scientists still don’t know exactly how the physical act of crying is connected to our feelings.(人类是唯一会因情绪而流泪的物种，但科学家至今仍不清楚哭泣这一物理行为与我们的情感之间究竟存在怎样的联系)”以及后文“Maybe it helps relieve the physical tension of feeling upset. In other words, crying occurs as our body returns from an aroused “fight or flight” state to a calm “rest and digest” state.(也许这有助于缓解因情绪低落而产生的身体紧张。换句话说，哭泣是身体从被唤醒的“战斗或逃跑”状态恢复到平静的“休息与消化”状态时的一种表现)”可知，第二段提到科学家尚不清楚哭泣和情绪的具体关联，空后给出“哭泣帮助缓解情绪紧张”的可能解释，D项“为什么我们悲伤时、有时开心也会哭？”引出问题衔接后文解释。 【18题详解】 根据后文“You might think that crying would make you feel better if it means your stress is relieved — it does, sometimes. “In surveys about two-thirds of people generally report feeling better after crying,” says Jonathan Rottenberg, a professor at the University of South Florida. In many cases, however, the better mood after having cried is the consequence of receiving emotional support and comfort.(你可能会认为，如果哭泣意味着压力得到了缓解，那么哭泣会让你感觉更好——有时确实如此。南佛罗里达大学教授乔纳森·罗滕伯格表示：“在调查中，三分之二的人普遍报告称，哭泣后心情变好了”然而，在许多情况下，哭泣后情绪好转其实是由于获得了情感支持和安慰的结果)”可知，第三段整段内容围绕“哭泣后大多人会感觉更好、改善心情”展开，A项“哭泣提升情绪”符合段落小标题要求。 【19题详解】 根据上文“When we communicate with others through tears, we are revealing our own vulnerability (脆弱). “With supportive people, it can create an increased feeling of bonding and connection,” Dr. Orloff says. “You trust the person enough to cry around them.”(当我们通过泪水与他人交流时，实际上是在展现自身的脆弱。“在有支持性的人身边，人们会感受到更强的联结和亲密感，”奥罗夫博士说，“你信任对方到足以在他们身边哭泣。”)”以及后文“And this can promote an empathetic response and an emotional connection.(这可以促进共情反应和情感联结)”可知，第四段提到“只有足够信任对方才会在对方面前哭泣”，空后指出这能促进情绪连接，E项“因此，哭泣是我们对对方心存亲近的信号”用therefore衔接前文逻辑，引出下文。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Tears can be a way to cause a specific reaction that works in our favor.(泪水可能是一种引发特定反应的方式，而这种反应对我们有利)”可知，第五段提到“眼泪是帮我们获得对自己有利反应的方式”，G项用“超速被交警拦截后哭泣的人都懂这个道理”举实例衔接观点。 第三部分 语言知识运用 (共三节，满分40分) 第一节 完形填空 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸 (卡) 上将该项涂黑。 The “daladala” is a means of public transport in Tanzania.

The business model ____42____ (tailor) for busy urbanites with three different service options. A self-managed plot costs only 1,299 yuan ($188) a year, while semi-managed ____43____ fully managed options can range up to 1,599 and 1,899 yuan ____44____ (annual), with garden staff assisting with weeding, watering and even harvesting. ____45____ the convenience of full management, the majority of renters choose the self-managed route, drawn by the healing value of manual labor. 【答案】36. satisfaction 37. a 38. measuring 39. played 40. equipped 41. where 42. is tailored 43. and 44. annually 45. Despite 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了济南新兴的共享菜园热潮，许多年轻都市人选择租地种菜，享受种植带来的乐趣。 【36题详解】 考查名词。句意：被“绿色热”影响的年轻都市人正在亲近泥土，追寻种植属于自己的番茄带来的简单满足感。空格前有定冠词the和形容词simple修饰，需要填入动词satisfy对应的名词形式satisfaction，意为“满足”。 【37题详解】 考查冠词。句意：济南新开的共享菜园“张灵丘的田”需求十分惊人：204块每块面积约30平方米的土地，开业仅10天就被热情的租户一抢而空。空格处作同位语泛指“一家新开的共享菜园”，newly以辅音音素开头，因此用不定冠词a。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：济南新开的共享菜园“张灵丘的田”需求十分惊人：204块每块面积约30平方米的土地，开业仅10天就被热情的租户一抢而空。本句谓语为were taken，空格处作后置定语修饰204 plots of land，measure表示“（某物）面积为”，是不及物动词，和逻辑主语204 plots of land之间为主动关系，因此用现在分词measuring。 【39题详解】 考查时态。句意：对于许多这类新都市“农民”而言，这份经历就像是他们曾经玩过的虚拟游戏照进了现实。句中once意为“曾经”，说明动作发生在过去，因此用一般过去时，play的过去式为played。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：菜园工作人员赵欣瑞指着一块配备了石板和茶桌的区域说：“这块地已经成型了。”句子谓语为says，空格处作后置定语修饰area，area和动词equip之间是被动关系，因此用过去分词equipped。 【41题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：“这看起来就像现实版的QQ农场”，她补充道，指的是曾经大热的社交游戏，玩家在游戏中经营虚拟作物。空格处引导定语从句，先行词为the once-popular social media game，从句中缺少地点状语，表“在游戏中”，因此用关系副词where。 【42题详解】 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：这种商业模式为忙碌的都市人量身打造了三种不同的服务选项。空处作谓语，主语The business model是单数，和动词tailor之间是被动关系，且此处陈述客观事实，用一般现在时，用is tailored。 【43题详解】 考查连词。句意：自管菜地每年仅需1299元（约合188美元），而半托管和全托管选项年费最高分别可达1599元和1899元，由菜园工作人员帮忙除草、浇水甚至收割。空格连接semi-managed和fully managed两个并列定语，共同修饰options，表并列关系，用并列连词and。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：自管菜地每年仅需1299元（约合188美元），而半托管和全托管选项年费最高分别可达1599元和1899元，由菜园工作人员帮忙除草、浇水甚至收割。空格处作状语表“每年”，需要把形容词annual转换为副词形式annually。 【45题详解】 考查介词。句意：尽管全托管十分方便，大多数租户还是选择了自管模式，被体力劳动带来的治愈感所吸引。空格后是名词短语the convenience of full management，主句和空格内容为让步关系，表“尽管、虽然”，介词despite符合语境，句首首字母需大写。 第三节 单词填空 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下列各句，根据汉语或首字母，在空白处填入一个适当的单词。 46.

New college students have been u________ military training in recent weeks. (根据首字母填空) 【答案】undergoing##ndergoing 【解析】 【详解】句意：最近几周，大学新生一直在进行军训。设空处应填动词作谓语，再结合句意“经历、进行”及首字母u提示，应为undergo，根据时间状语“in recent weeks”可知，此处表示最近一段时间一直进行的动作，应用现在完成进行时，结构为have been doing。 49.

Anything in pots gets either over watered or underwatered. But after I was diagnosed (诊断) with a brain cancer, with an expectation of no more than a year to live, I loved the idea of having something new and green around. My friend Mitch gave me what he said was a lucky bamboo plant in a deep-green pottery bowl with three pencil-sizes talks (茎) bound together. We placed the plant in the living room window across from the couch where 1 spent much of the day. I smiled when I looked at it over the coffee Hanna b brought me each morning. It old Hannah I wanted to care for the plant myself. When it didn’t immediately turn yellow or brown or lose all its leaves, I was pleasantly surprised. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment at a time when I sometimes felt useless. Brain cancer limited my ability to walk, and the treatment left me exhausted, making it hard for me to accomplish everyday tasks. As a family physician, I was used to being the one who provided care, not the one who received it. Since my diagnosis in August 2018, far too often, it seemed that I had to rely on help from other people. The enormous change left me feeling aimless and unsettled. Watering the plant, as small an act as it was, connected me to a core part of my old identity and taught me I could still be a caregiver. Plants and people could still depend on me. Over the next few months, I recovered from surgery and completed radiation. Even after I returned to work, I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it had nearly doubled in height and its leaves were shiny and thick. Both the tree and I were thriving. But hen, somehow, it began to show signs of stress. No matter what I did, the leaves kept browning and hanging down to the floor. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “If my lucky bamboo dies, I might die too!” I yelled, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As my anxiety reduced, I began to search online to help my failing plant. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: “If my lucky bamboo dies, I might die too!” I yelled. Living with the green and growing plant had offered me comfort. Now that the tree was struggling, I felt increasingly fearful. I grew more and more frustrated and uneasy. Hearing my words, Hannah softly reminded me of the wrong connection between the plant with my own survival. With the help of her patience, I realized I had wrongly connected my care of the plant—something over which I had at least some control—with my own survival—something over which I had no control. As my anxiety reduced, I began to search online to help my failing plant. Following the instructions, I transplanted the tree to a larger pot, loosing its roots to give it room to grow. When it was put in the sunny window, we both began to boom again. Whenever I look at the tree with its stalks in its new pot, I think of Mitch and the other people who have cared for and supported me. If the plant outlives me, I hope it will comfort Hannah and remind her that our large community will continue to support her after I am gone. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者作为一名家庭医生，习惯于成为提供护理的人，而不是接受护理的人。他被诊断出患有脑癌后，他希望看到绿色，以前不喜欢养室内植物，现在养了一株幸运的竹子，照顾这株植物给了作者一种成就感。从手术和放疗中恢复过来后，即使在回到工作岗位后，作者也继续照料这株植物。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘如果我的幸运竹子死了，我也可能会死!’我喊道。”可知，第一段可描写作者错误地把竹子的命运和自己的命运联系在一起。 ②由第二段首句内容“随着我的焦虑减轻，我开始在网上搜索，以帮助我那棵失败的植物。”可知，第二段可描写作者是如何挽救那棵植物的，以及看到植物被救过来后所想到的。 2.续写线索：竹子衰退——联想——焦虑减轻——救活植物——兴奋——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 提供：offer sb. sth./provide sb. with sth./provide sth. for sb. 意识到：realize/be aware of 继续：continue /keep 情绪类 害怕的：fearful /afraid/scared 关心：cared for /be careful 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B Woodpeckers (啄木鸟) hopped into my life in an unexpected place. As a young boy of eight or nine, I peered impatiently through the kitchen window into the backyard, waiting for the rain to stop so I might escape my tame suburban home to a wilder place where I could watch more than American Robins (知更鸟). Suddenly, a bird caught my attention. As it bounced closer, the bright red mustache, and veins of orange on the tail and wings revealed it was a male woodpecker! With what seemed like an explosion of red feathers, he was gone. From that moment on, I read everything I could about woodpeckers. Instantly I became a woodpecker enthusiast. Since that day, the call of the woodpecker has led me on many journeys from my backyard to distant continents and inspired me to rise before the sun so that their syncopated (切分节奏的) drumming might allow me to find them, follow them, and learn about their mysterious lives before they disappear back into the trees. My fascination has only grown over the years as I noticed that no matter where I was in North America, as long as there were large trees and surrounding natural landscape, there was at least one species of woodpecker to trigger my wonder at the richness around me and the woodpecker’s role in enhancing it. My book Woodpecker contains an exploration of the lives of the forty-one species of woodpeckers in North America. In telling the stories of these woodpeckers, I focus my lens, narrative, and anecdotes on the species and behaviors that are most representative, while also highlighting interesting exceptions and contrasts. I hope that by sharing intimate images and stories from the more secreted moments of their life histories, I can motivate people to better appreciate their critical role in enhancing our natural world and perhaps inspire the long-term protection of these birds and the habitats that they rely upon. 4. What do we know about the author from paragraph 1? A. He was bored of bird-watching. B. He hated leaving his suburban home. C. He longed to see more varied wildlife. D. He loved American Robins very much. 5. The author’s fascination with woodpeckers began with ______. A. his determination to make a change B. a single, unexpected childhood sighting C. some research on their beautiful feathers D. books that introduced him to woodpeckers 6. Why has the author’s love for woodpeckers grown? A. They lead him to many different places. B. Their distinctive sounds have amazed him. C. They enable him to uncover the world’s mysteries. D. Their widespread presence helps him see nature’s richness. 7. What is the key strength of the author’s book? A. It centers on rare woodpecker species. B. It covers all woodpecker species in detail. C. It reveals the threats to woodpeckers’ survival. D. It features typical species and interesting exceptions. C Scroll through #SingingDog posts on social media, and you will find many clips of dogs howling (嗥叫) along to their favourite tunes. But can these doggy “singers” show any real musicality? That’s the question that psychologist Aniruddh Patel and his colleagues at Tufts University have attempted to answer with an ear-catching new study, which shows some dogs really are perceiving pitch (音高) and adjusting their “singing” accordingly. The idea for the study came from descriptions of wolves’ howling in a pack. Observations from the wild suggest that each wolf attempts to hit a different tone. The result is a rough mixture of sounds that might create the impression of a much larger group, which would help frighten away potential enemies. “And so it had been theorised that they were actually paying attention and changing their pitch,” says Patel. This is very hard to test experimentally, of course, which is why Patel and his colleagues turned to house pets. They asked a handful of dog owners to record their dogs howling to their personally preferred track-first in the original key and then in versions that had been changed three semitones above and three semitones below-to see how they would respond to the change in pitch. The team focused their analyses on two ancient breeds (品种), Samoyeds and Shiba Inus, that are thought to be more closely related to their wolf ancestors. All four of the Samoyeds studied showed some sensitivity to the track’s pitch, consistently adapting their howls to the new key, though not perfectly. “They’re trying to match their own voice to what they hear; they’re not just making some instinctive and inflexible response,” says Patel. The two Shiba Inus, in contrast, appeared to be tone-deaf. He believes genetic variation may explain the gap. The findings might shed light on the origins of human music. Some theorists have argued singing evolved from speech-related sound control, but the fact that dogs can also control pitch without any other forms of vocal learning suggests that language may not have been necessary at the beginning. 8. What first inspired Patel to study dogs’ musical ability? A. Theories of sound control. B. Dogs’ singing videos on social media. C. Observations of wild hunting. D. Wolves’ tone awareness in pack howling. 9. What aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its design. B. Its purpose. C. Its subject. D. Its significance. 10. What does the study find according to paragraph 4? A. Genes decide dogs’ pitch. B. Dogs’ responses to pitches differ. C. Dogs are music-insensitive. D. Musicality is shared across species. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Are Dogs Born Singers? B. Can Dogs Learn to Sing? C. What Tunes Do Dogs Prefer? D. Which Dogs Like Music Most? D In an era dominated by short-form content and instant gratification (即时满足), poetry is often regarded as an outdated literary form. Critics argue that its complex images, unusual rhyme patterns, and symbolic language make it difficult for modern readers to appreciate. Yet poetry’s value has not faded; rather, it has grown increasingly essential. Poetry allows individuals to express complex emotions and experiences in a way that standard language is unable to. Life is complex and often rejects a simple interpretation of its hardships, so it makes sense that poetry does the same. Poet Dylan Thomas wrote, “A poem may make us laugh, cry, think deeply, or remain silent.” In an age marked by emotional pressure and uncertainty, poetry offers both writers and readers a healing release, helping them find connection in shared human experiences, whether those are about love, loss or joy. Moreover, poetry plays a vital role in helping young people reflect and think deeply about social, political and cultural issues in this modern age. The rise of social media has conditioned the brain to seek quick fixes, weakening the ability for deep thinking and reflection. Reading a complicated poem — with its packed verses and layered meanings — can force readers to slow down and explore language rather than mindlessly snack on information, which might lead to an improvement in analytical and critical thinking skills. Poetry, as an art form, also encourages creativity. Individuals can break free from traditional forms of expression and experiment with language, rhythm, structure and sound. Besides, poetry invites writers to dive deeply into emotions and ideas, allowing new insights and perspectives to be uncovered. Hence, poetry gains its significance in a society that highly values creativity. Admittedly, poetry may never recover the popularity it once held during the Victorian era. It would be unrealistic to expect everyone to enjoy The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot. Yet readers can learn to appreciate poems that both challenge and entertain. Poetry still matters — not despite its difficulty, but because of it. 12. What is critics’ view on poetry in modern times? A. It lacks deep meanings. B. It fails to relate to modern life. C. It discourages average readers. D. It falls short of symbolic images. 13. What is the value of poetry according to paragraph 2? A. Providing instant pleasure. B. Creating new literary trends. C. Offering emotional connection. D. Encouraging social interaction. 14. What do the underlined words “snack on” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Dig into. B. Glance through. C. Reflect on. D. Sort out. 15. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Difficulty sustains poetry’s appeal. B. Poetry will regain its popularity. C. Readers dislike challenging poems. D. Everyone is expected to read poetry. 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。 Touching movies, stressful events at home or work, and even good news like a wedding or a baby might bring on the waterworks. ____16____ But you might not know that crying can have a big effect on your body and mind — here’s how. ● Crying relieves stress. Humans are the only species to weep from emotions, but scientists still don’t know exactly how the physical act of crying is connected to our feelings. ____17____ Maybe it helps relieve the physical tension of feeling upset. In other words, crying occurs as our body returns from an aroused “fight or flight” state to a calm “rest and digest” state. ● ____18____ You might think that crying would make you feel better if it means your stress is relieved — it does, sometimes. “In surveys about two-thirds of people generally report feeling better after crying,” says Jonathan Rottenberg, a professor at the University of South Florida. In many cases, however, the better mood after having cried is the consequence of receiving emotional support and comfort. ● Crying strengthens bonds. When we communicate with others through tears, we are revealing our own vulnerability (脆弱). “With supportive people, it can create an increased feeling of bonding and connection,” Dr. Orloff says. “You trust the person enough to cry around them.” ____19____ And this can promote an empathetic response and an emotional connection. ● Crying helps us get what we want. Tears can be a way to cause a specific reaction that works in our favor. ____20____ Even if we don’t mean to control others, our crying may have the result of easing anger and making others feel guilty or more willing to bend to our will. A. Crying boosts mood. B. Crying lets you release emotions in private. C. Sometimes, you just need to let the tears flow. D. Why do we cry when we’re sad (and sometimes happy)? E. Crying is, therefore, a signal that we feel close to someone. F. So, it may take a while before crying makes you feel better. G. Anyone who’s ever cried after getting pulled over for speeding knows that. 第三部分 语言知识运用 (共三节，满分40分) 第一节 完形填空 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸 (卡) 上将该项涂黑。 The “daladala” is a means of public transport in Tanzania.

Anything in pots gets either over watered or underwatered. But after I was diagnosed (诊断) with a brain cancer, with an expectation of no more than a year to live, I loved the idea of having something new and green around. My friend Mitch gave me what he said was a lucky bamboo plant in a deep-green pottery bowl with three pencil-sizes talks (茎) bound together. We placed the plant in the living room window across from the couch where 1 spent much of the day. I smiled when I looked at it over the coffee Hanna b brought me each morning. It old Hannah I wanted to care for the plant myself. When it didn’t immediately turn yellow or brown or lose all its leaves, I was pleasantly surprised. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment at a time when I sometimes felt useless. Brain cancer limited my ability to walk, and the treatment left me exhausted, making it hard for me to accomplish everyday tasks. As a family physician, I was used to being the one who provided care, not the one who received it. Since my diagnosis in August 2018, far too often, it seemed that I had to rely on help from other people. The enormous change left me feeling aimless and unsettled. Watering the plant, as small an act as it was, connected me to a core part of my old identity and taught me I could still be a caregiver. Plants and people could still depend on me. Over the next few months, I recovered from surgery and completed radiation. Even after I returned to work, I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it had nearly doubled in height and its leaves were shiny and thick. Both the tree and I were thriving. But hen, somehow, it began to show signs of stress. No matter what I did, the leaves kept browning and hanging down to the floor. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “If my lucky bamboo dies, I might die too!” I yelled, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As my anxiety reduced, I began to search online to help my failing plant. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
