It was established by Dino Bartzis, a well-known and beloved barber in Kingston’s Greek community. Dino was known for his friendly manners and treating customers like his family. He was well-respected in Kingston’s Greek community and beyond. Sadly, Dino passed away in July 2021, but his legacy (遗产) continues on with his son, Tony, with other barbers continuing his tradition. Tony wasn’t always a barber. He had previously worked in a field completely unrelated to barbering. Barbering was totally new for Tony, but after losing his father, he felt a strong pull to step in and carry on what his father had built. While still grieving (悲伤) the sudden loss of his father, Tony knew the importance of his dad’s barbershop to Kingston’s Greek community and that he had to keep the shop open, not only for the people who have relied on the barbershop for great friendly haircuts, but for himself, his family and for his dad’s legacy to be carried on. So Tony acted quickly, signing up for a barbering program in Ottawa. It was a fast-paced experience, but he was fully committed to learning the craft properly and getting the certificates he needed to reopen the barbershop. At the same time, he gave the barbershop a slightly more modern look to help attract the newer generations of customers as well. During the first week of 2023, Tony reopened Dino’s Barbershop, with the same amazing staff, and collectively they have maintained the same family-orientated and welcoming environment that Dino’s Barbershop has always been known for. Tony’s only wish is that his father could be present to witness his shop today and see the diverse customers that visit and call it home. Dino would be particularly proud that his legacy continues to serve and inspire the next generation. Dino’s Barbershop is more than just a place for haircuts; it’s a place where people connect, build relationships and share special moments every day. 4. What motivated Tony to take over his father’s barbershop? A. His commitment to the community service. B. His financial pressure after losing his job. C. His desire to modernize traditional craft. D. His passion for barbering since childhood. 5. What did Tony’s preparations to reopen the barbershop involve? A. New staff and a price adjustment. B. Redecoration and skill certificates. C. Hairstyle diversity and online booking. D. Shop expansion and customer surveys. 6. What is a special aspect about Dino’s Barbershop? A. It charges the lowest in the community. B. It mainly serves the elderly people. C. It creates a family-like community space. D. It hires professional barbers from abroad. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. Greek community in Kingston. B. Competition between barbershops. C. Skills training in modern barbering. D. A son continuing his father’s legacy. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是儿子托尼继承父亲的理发店，传承父亲留下的温暖事业与社区精神。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“While still grieving (悲伤) the sudden loss of his father, Tony knew the importance of his dad’s barbershop to Kingston’s Greek community and that he had to keep the shop open, not only for the people who have relied on the barbershop for great friendly haircuts, but for himself, his family and for his dad’s legacy to be carried on.(托尼仍沉浸在父亲骤然离世的悲痛之中，但他清楚这家理发店对金斯顿希腊社群意义重大。他必须把店坚持开下去 —— 不仅是为那些信赖这家店、喜欢这里亲切理发服务的老顾客，也是为了自己、家人，更是为了传承父亲留下的这份事业。)”可知，对社区服务的责任感促使托尼接手父亲的理发店。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“So Tony acted quickly, signing up for a barbering program in Ottawa. It was a fast-paced experience, but he was fully committed to learning the craft properly and getting the certificates he needed to reopen the barbershop. At the same time, he gave the barbershop a slightly more modern look to help attract the newer generations of customers as well.(于是托尼迅速行动，报名参加了渥太华的理发培训课程。学习节奏很快，但他全身心投入，认真钻研手艺，考取重新开店所需的各类证书。与此同时，他对店铺做了小幅现代化改造，希望也能吸引新一代顾客。)”可知，托尼重新开业前做的准备工作包括重新装修并获取技能认证。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Dino’s Barbershop is more than just a place for haircuts; it’s a place where people connect, build relationships and share special moments every day.(迪诺理发店早已不只是剪头发的地方；在这里，人们相互交流、建立情谊，每天都分享着许多温暖的瞬间。)”可知，迪诺理发店的特别之处在于它营造出类似家庭的温馨社区氛围。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“While still grieving (悲伤) the sudden loss of his father, Tony knew the importance of his dad’s barbershop to Kingston’s Greek community and that he had to keep the shop open, not only for the people who have relied on the barbershop for great friendly haircuts, but for himself, his family and for his dad’s legacy to be carried on.(托尼仍沉浸在父亲骤然离世的悲痛之中，但他清楚这家理发店对金斯顿希腊社群意义重大。他必须把店坚持开下去 —— 不仅是为那些信赖这家店、喜欢这里亲切理发服务的老顾客，也是为了自己、家人，更是为了传承父亲留下的这份事业。)”可知，本文主要讲的是儿子托尼继承父亲的理发店，传承父亲留下的温暖事业与社区精神，因此本文的主旨是D选项“A son continuing his father’s legacy.(一位儿子继承父亲的事业。)”。 C Almost half of young people would rather live in a world where the internet does not exist, according to a new survey. The research reveals that nearly 70% of 16 to 21-year-olds feel worse about themselves after spending time on social media. Half would support a “digital curfew” that would restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm, while 46% said they would rather be young in a world without the internet altogether. The results came after the government weighed up the possibility of making cut-off times mandatory (强制的) for certain apps such as TikTok and Instagram. Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place. “We need to make clear that a digital curfew alone is not going to protect children from the risks they face online. They will be able to see all these risks at other points of the day and they will still have the same impact,” she said. The study, conducted by the British Standards Institution, surveyed 1,293 young people and three-quarters said they had spent more time online as a result of the pandemic, while 68% said they felt the time they spent online was harmful to their mental health. Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”. He added that algorithms (算法) can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own”. New laws were “urgently required to embed a safe approach to regulation that puts the needs of children and society ahead of those of big tech”, he said. 8. What does the phrase “digital curfew” in paragraph 2 probably refer to ? A. A complete ban on digital devices. B. Parental control over the use of software. C. Governmental monitoring of online activity. D. Restrictions on internet access during specific hours. 9. What does Rani Govender think of digital curfews? A. They are the most effective solution for online safety. B. They are strongly opposed by most technology companies. C. They need to be combined with other measures to be effective. D. They prevent children from accessing harmful content entirely. 10. What does Andy Burrows mean in paragraph four? A. To call for new laws to regulate big techs. B. To highlight young people’s concerns and demand. C. To point out tech companies’ responsibility for online safety. D. To criticize young people for spending too much time online. 11. What can be learned about algorithms in the last paragraph ? A. Algorithms effectively remove all harmful content. B. Algorithms make it easy to find desired content quickly. C. Algorithms primarily show content requested by the user. D. Algorithms can unintentionally lead users to harmful content. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一项新调查显示近一半的年轻人宁愿生活在一个没有互联网的世界里，并探讨了数字宵禁、网络安全以及算法对年轻人的影响等相关问题。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm(在晚上10点后限制他们访问某些应用程序和网站)”可知，一半的人支持“数字宵禁”，由此可知，digital curfew指的是在特定时间限制上网。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place.(NSPCC的儿童在线安全政策经理Rani Govender表示，数字宵禁虽然有帮助，但如果不采取其他措施，就无法阻止儿童在网上接触到有害材料。)”可知，Rani Govender认为数字宵禁需要与其他措施相结合才能有效。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”.(自杀预防慈善机构Molly Rose Foundation的首席执行官Andy Burrows表示：“很明显，年轻人意识到网络上的风险，并希望科技公司采取行动保护他们。”)”可知，Andy Burrows在第四段主要是强调年轻人的担忧和需求。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“He added that algorithms can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own.”(他补充说，算法提供的内容“可能会迅速传播，并在年轻人自身毫无过错的情况下，将他们带入有害内容的深渊”。)”可知，算法可能会无意中引导用户访问有害内容。故选D。 D Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been lost for more than half a century. Male chingolos learn their unique, two-second melody from adult males. “It is a distinctive song — like a fingerprint, but learned,” says one of the researchers. “It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the bird’s way of saying, “This is me, and here I am.” However, urbanization and habitat loss have broken this learning chain, causing local song “dialects” to disappear. Driven by this problem, researchers took on a pioneering task: bringing back a song that had disappeared from the wild — known only from a musical record made in the 1960s — to a population of chingolos. Using physics-based modeling of the bird’s vocal tract (声道) , the team first created an accurate artificial version of the lost song. They then engineered this model into a physical device designed to broadcast the forgotten melody — a “robotic tutor.” This artificial song was introduced to the chingolos in the park during their critical learning period from October to February. The sessions took place during peak singing hours and were limited to a maximum of eight hours. There were random pauses (停顿) in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal responses. The results were impressive. Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own population’s “accent” to the final trill (颤音) , which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and inborn characteristics. “This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity,” says another researcher. The team is now developing AI systems to automatically identify individual bird songs and planning to study cultural spread in bird populations to ensure that bird culture is not lost again. 12. Why did the researchers teach the birds the song? A. To save an endangered species. B. To study the birds’ brain structure. C. To develop new robotic devices. D. To preserve the birds’ cultural heritage. 13. What is a role of chingolos’ song? A. It keeps hunters away from them. B. It helps them adapt to urban growth. C. It functions as their social identity. D. It makes them remember their habitat. 14. What is the purpose of the random pauses? A. To protect the birds’ vocal tract. B. To test the birds’ reaction speed. C. To push the birds to catch the beat. D. To trick the birds into interaction. 15. What can we learn from chingolos’ learning results? A. The song has spread to other bird species. B. Their singing shows special vocal features. C. Their response to the song needs improving. D. The effectiveness depends on their population. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的研究人员成功利用机器人导师，让一种南美小鸟——雄性红领带鹀重新学会了一首曾是该物种文化一部分，但已消失半个多世纪的歌曲，以及研究过程、结果和意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been lost for more than half a century.(布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的研究人员已成功使用机器人导师，教南美一种小型鸟类 —— 雄性红领带鹀 学习一首曾属于该物种文化、但已消失半个多世纪的鸣唱)”以及最后一段“This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity (这不仅是为了保护遗传多样性，也是为了保护文化多样性)”可知，研究人员教鸟儿这首歌是为了保护鸟类的文化遗产。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the bird’s way of saying, “This is me, and here I am.” (它用来吸引雌鸟和保护领地。这是鸟儿表达“这就是我，我就在这里”的方式。)”可知，红领带鹀的歌声是它们的社会身份标识。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There were random pauses (停顿) in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal responses. (中间有随机停顿，这样鸟儿就会把放置在该区域的三个设备播放的声音当作真实的交流，就好像这些设备在互相回应一样。这刺激了鸟类的发声反应。)”可知，随机停顿的目的是诱使鸟儿进行互动。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own population’s “accent” to the final trill (颤音) , which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and inborn characteristics. (年轻的红领带鹀学习并采用了这首歌，尽管它们在最后的颤音中加入了自己种群的“口音”，这表明它们的歌声是由习得行为和先天特征共同塑造的。)”可知，从红领带鹀的学习结果中我们可以了解到它们的歌声表现出特殊的发声特征。故选B项。 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。 How much do you engage with others when you’re out in public? ____16____ Think of people on public transportation staring down at their phones with earbuds (耳机) firmly in place. And on university campuses, students often put on their headphones and start checking their phones before leaving the lecture hall on the way to their next class. Organizing daily experiences in these ways may appeal to your personal interests, but it also limits opportunities for building social connections. ____17____ We desire to feel connected to others, and even connecting with strangers can potentially boost our mood. Though recent technological advances afford greater means for connection than at any other moment in human history, many people still feel lonely and disconnected. Indeed, loneliness in the American population has become a pressing issue, and Americans’ trust in each other has reached a historic low. You find yourself surrounded by people whose ears are closed off, whose eyes are down and whose attention is elsewhere. ____18____. For all these reasons, it is helpful to think about how you can be more mindful and intentional about who you pay attention to. ____19____: make an effort to notice people around you more and use your energy not only for what you must do, but also to build real connections. As historian Timothy Snyder writes, eye contact and small talk are not just about politeness, but about responsibility as a member of society. You may greet someone you don’t know, or show your willingness to welcome other people rather than displaying disinterest and avoidance. Such simple acts may help to foster feelings of belonging and build a sense of community with others. ____20____. A. Humans are social beings B. Many people don’t actually do so at all C. It’s natural for human beings to offer help to others D. As I often suggest, try what I call “psychological generosity” E. You might feel like no one really cares whether you exist or not F. To conclude, building relationships with people is key to broadening our minds G. Ultimately, both individual well-being and community health grow from social connection 【答案】16. B 17. A 18. E 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】当下人们沉迷电子设备，疏于线下交往，孤独问题日益严峻。文章呼吁主动与人交流，简单互动能增进归属感，助力个人与集体向好发展。 【16题详解】 根据上文“How much do you engage with others when you’re out in public?(当你在公共场合时，会与他人进行多少交流呢？)”以及后文“Think of people on public transportation staring down at their phones with earbuds (耳机) firmly in place. And on university campuses, students often put on their headphones and start checking their phones before leaving the lecture hall on the way to their next class.(想象一下，在公共交通工具上，人们低头盯着手机，耳机牢牢地戴在耳朵上。而在大学校园里，学生们常常戴上耳机，在离开教室前往下一节课的路上就开始查看手机)”可知，开篇提问“你在公共场合会和他人互动吗？”，后文举了所有人都低头戴耳机看手机、不社交的例子，B选项“很多人其实根本不做（互动这件事）”完美承接提问、引出下文例子，符合逻辑。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Organizing daily experiences in these ways may appeal to your personal interests, but it also limits opportunities for building social connections.(以这种方式来组织日常活动或许能迎合你的个人喜好，但同时也限制了建立社交联系的机会)”以及后文“We desire to feel connected to others, and even connecting with strangers can potentially boost our mood.(我们渴望与他人建立联系，即便与陌生人建立联系也可能有助于提升我们的心情)”可知，前文说封闭自己限制社交机会，后文说“我们天生渴望和他人联结”，A选项“人类是社会性生物”承上启下，解释了为什么人需要社交联结，符合逻辑。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Though recent technological advances afford greater means for connection than at any other moment in human history, many people still feel lonely and disconnected. Indeed, loneliness in the American population has become a pressing issue, and Americans’ trust in each other has reached a historic low. You find yourself surrounded by people whose ears are closed off, whose eyes are down and whose attention is elsewhere.(尽管近来的技术进步为人们之间的联系提供了比人类历史上任何时期都更为便捷的手段，但许多人仍感到孤独和疏离。事实上，美国民众中的孤独情绪已成为一个亟待解决的问题，而美国人之间的信任度也达到了历史最低点。你会发现自己周围的人都对他人充耳不闻，目光低垂，注意力分散)”可知，前文描述现状：周围所有人都戴耳机、埋头看手机，对身边人毫无关注，E选项“你会感觉到根本没人在乎你是否存在”顺承前文的场景，引出下文“因为这些问题，我们需要改变”的结论，符合逻辑。 【19题详解】 根据上文“For all these reasons, it is helpful to think about how you can be more mindful and intentional about who you pay attention to.(基于上述种种原因，思考一下如何让自己更加专注、更有意识地去关注特定的人，是很有帮助的)”以及后文“make an effort to notice people around you more and use your energy not only for what you must do, but also to build real connections.(要努力更多地留意身边的人，并且将你的精力不仅用于必须完成的任务上，还要用于建立真正的联系)”可知，前文提出“我们需要更有意地关注他人”，后文冒号引出具体的做法建议，D选项“正如我常建议的，试试我所说的‘心理慷慨’”正好引出后文对做法的解释，符合逻辑。 【20题详解】 根据上文“As historian Timothy Snyder writes, eye contact and small talk are not just about politeness, but about responsibility as a member of society. You may greet someone you don’t know, or show your willingness to welcome other people rather than displaying disinterest and avoidance. Such simple acts may help to foster feelings of belonging and build a sense of community with others.(正如历史学家蒂莫西·斯奈德所言，眼神交流和闲聊不仅仅是出于礼貌，更是出于作为社会一员的责任感。你可能会向不认识的人打招呼，或者表现出愿意接纳他人而非表现出冷漠和回避的态度。这些简单的举动或许有助于培养归属感，并与他人建立一种社区感)”可知，前文说主动接触的简单行为能培养归属感、建立社群联结，G选项“最终，个人幸福和社群健康都源自社会联结”收尾总结全文观点，符合逻辑。 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，共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。 “There is no way I can live out of a suitcase!” I thought as we ____21____ our home in Venice, Italy.

I am surprised you didn’t know that he is as blind as a bat!” Hearing Nathan’s words, I wanted to land a blow on him for making fun of my two-year-old brother, David, but I was more desperate (渴望的) to find out the truth. With a misty (模糊的) vision, I ran home as fast as I could. Still out of breath, I questioned, “Is David blind?” Mother turned to me with tears in her eyes. “Yes, he’s born blind.” It was a heartbreaking moment. I knew clearly the dream of showing David my cool soccer moves or playing video games with him ended cruelly. “Why did you keep the truth from me? I often wondered why he didn’t look at me or why he was always tripping over (被绊倒) things and I thought it was because he was still too young...” Before I could continue any further, mother hugged me and cried, “I’m sorry, Caleb. Dad and I just didn’t know how to tell you.” Suddenly, it struck me that David was blind but he could still hear the whole conversation. Not wanting him to be affected by it, I stopped crying and went forward and embraced him. “I love you so much, David.” Worry crept upon (开始影响) me: How hard life would be for him! Little did I know that David was to inspire (鼓舞) me so greatly. As David grew up, he was fairly strong-willed. Despite the challenges that he faced, he continued to attend the school for visually impaired (视力受损) children. He insisted he would take the bus home on his own. Often, he would walk through the main door, looking sheepish (不好意思的) and saying the same phrase, “Sorry Mum, I am late. I boarded the wrong bus again.” Tough as life was, there was always silver lining (一线希望) of misfortune. Despite not being able to see, he could play a piece of music after listening to it, being played once on the piano. He even dreamed of playing solo (独奏) one day on stage. Luckily for him, the school had discovered David’s extraordinary (非凡的) talent. 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。 One day, David burst through the main door excitedly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tapping the ground with his walking stick, David entered the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One day, David burst through the main door excitedly. Unable to conceal his delight and thrill, he announced that the school would like him to play solo at the school musical concert. The whole family were extremely thrilled for him, for it was a perfect opportunity to realize his music dream. There was also a bit worry that he might suffer a blow in case of a failure, which threw us into a hint of uneasiness. But we had faith in him.The following days witnessed him repeatedly practicing the chosen music skillfully. Then came the big day when he would go on stage. Tapping the ground with his walking stick, David entered the stage. With the widest smile on his face, he walked towards the grand piano located in the middle of the stage. I sat up with anticipation, heart filled with pride. His fingers flew on the keys as his music filled the air of the 500-seat concert hall. After the last note was played, the whole hall erupted into applause. David stood up and took a bow, smiling broadly as the spotlight shone brightly on him. He would always be an inspiration to me. Through him, I learned having an unflagging spirit could overcome challenges and David truly had that. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的弟弟大卫是盲人，但是大卫意志相当坚强。尽管他面临着种种挑战，他仍然继续在这所专为视障儿童开设的学校上学。最后大卫实现了自己演奏音乐的梦想。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天，大卫兴奋地冲进大门。”可知，第一段可描写大卫得知学校允许他在音乐会上演奏独奏之后的喜悦和家人的感受以及大卫的积极练习。 ②由第二段首句“大卫用手杖敲了敲地面，走上台来。”可知，第二段可描写大卫在台上表演的情况以及观众的反应以及我的感悟。 2.续写线索：得知可以演奏后大卫的表现——家人的反应——不断的练习——上台表演——表演成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①掩盖：conceal/hide/pocket ②爆发出：erupt into/ burst into/burst out ③站起来：stand up/rise to one’s feet 情绪类 ①兴奋的：thrilled/excited/pleased ②不安：uneasiness/uncomfortableness 【点睛】【高分句型1】There was also a bit worry that he might suffer a blow in case of a failure, which threw us into a hint of uneasiness.

It was established by Dino Bartzis, a well-known and beloved barber in Kingston’s Greek community. Dino was known for his friendly manners and treating customers like his family. He was well-respected in Kingston’s Greek community and beyond. Sadly, Dino passed away in July 2021, but his legacy (遗产) continues on with his son, Tony, with other barbers continuing his tradition. Tony wasn’t always a barber. He had previously worked in a field completely unrelated to barbering. Barbering was totally new for Tony, but after losing his father, he felt a strong pull to step in and carry on what his father had built. While still grieving (悲伤) the sudden loss of his father, Tony knew the importance of his dad’s barbershop to Kingston’s Greek community and that he had to keep the shop open, not only for the people who have relied on the barbershop for great friendly haircuts, but for himself, his family and for his dad’s legacy to be carried on. So Tony acted quickly, signing up for a barbering program in Ottawa. It was a fast-paced experience, but he was fully committed to learning the craft properly and getting the certificates he needed to reopen the barbershop. At the same time, he gave the barbershop a slightly more modern look to help attract the newer generations of customers as well. During the first week of 2023, Tony reopened Dino’s Barbershop, with the same amazing staff, and collectively they have maintained the same family-orientated and welcoming environment that Dino’s Barbershop has always been known for. Tony’s only wish is that his father could be present to witness his shop today and see the diverse customers that visit and call it home. Dino would be particularly proud that his legacy continues to serve and inspire the next generation. Dino’s Barbershop is more than just a place for haircuts; it’s a place where people connect, build relationships and share special moments every day. 4. What motivated Tony to take over his father’s barbershop? A. His commitment to the community service. B. His financial pressure after losing his job. C. His desire to modernize traditional craft. D. His passion for barbering since childhood. 5. What did Tony’s preparations to reopen the barbershop involve? A. New staff and a price adjustment. B. Redecoration and skill certificates. C. Hairstyle diversity and online booking. D. Shop expansion and customer surveys. 6. What is a special aspect about Dino’s Barbershop? A. It charges the lowest in the community. B. It mainly serves the elderly people. C. It creates a family-like community space. D. It hires professional barbers from abroad. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. Greek community in Kingston. B. Competition between barbershops. C. Skills training in modern barbering. D. A son continuing his father’s legacy. C Almost half of young people would rather live in a world where the internet does not exist, according to a new survey. The research reveals that nearly 70% of 16 to 21-year-olds feel worse about themselves after spending time on social media. Half would support a “digital curfew” that would restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm, while 46% said they would rather be young in a world without the internet altogether. The results came after the government weighed up the possibility of making cut-off times mandatory (强制的) for certain apps such as TikTok and Instagram. Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place. “We need to make clear that a digital curfew alone is not going to protect children from the risks they face online. They will be able to see all these risks at other points of the day and they will still have the same impact,” she said. The study, conducted by the British Standards Institution, surveyed 1,293 young people and three-quarters said they had spent more time online as a result of the pandemic, while 68% said they felt the time they spent online was harmful to their mental health. Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”. He added that algorithms (算法) can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own”. New laws were “urgently required to embed a safe approach to regulation that puts the needs of children and society ahead of those of big tech”, he said. 8.

D Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been lost for more than half a century. Male chingolos learn their unique, two-second melody from adult males. “It is a distinctive song — like a fingerprint, but learned,” says one of the researchers. “It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the bird’s way of saying, “This is me, and here I am.” However, urbanization and habitat loss have broken this learning chain, causing local song “dialects” to disappear. Driven by this problem, researchers took on a pioneering task: bringing back a song that had disappeared from the wild — known only from a musical record made in the 1960s — to a population of chingolos. Using physics-based modeling of the bird’s vocal tract (声道) , the team first created an accurate artificial version of the lost song. They then engineered this model into a physical device designed to broadcast the forgotten melody — a “robotic tutor.” This artificial song was introduced to the chingolos in the park during their critical learning period from October to February. The sessions took place during peak singing hours and were limited to a maximum of eight hours. There were random pauses (停顿) in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal responses. The results were impressive. Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own population’s “accent” to the final trill (颤音) , which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and inborn characteristics. “This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity,” says another researcher. The team is now developing AI systems to automatically identify individual bird songs and planning to study cultural spread in bird populations to ensure that bird culture is not lost again. 12. Why did the researchers teach the birds the song? A. To save an endangered species. B. To study the birds’ brain structure. C. To develop new robotic devices. D. To preserve the birds’ cultural heritage. 13. What is a role of chingolos’ song? A. It keeps hunters away from them. B. It helps them adapt to urban growth. C. It functions as their social identity. D. It makes them remember their habitat. 14. What is the purpose of the random pauses? A. To protect the birds’ vocal tract. B. To test the birds’ reaction speed. C. To push the birds to catch the beat. D. To trick the birds into interaction. 15. What can we learn from chingolos’ learning results? A. The song has spread to other bird species. B. Their singing shows special vocal features. C. Their response to the song needs improving. D. The effectiveness depends on their population. 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。 How much do you engage with others when you’re out in public? ____16____ Think of people on public transportation staring down at their phones with earbuds (耳机) firmly in place. And on university campuses, students often put on their headphones and start checking their phones before leaving the lecture hall on the way to their next class. Organizing daily experiences in these ways may appeal to your personal interests, but it also limits opportunities for building social connections. ____17____ We desire to feel connected to others, and even connecting with strangers can potentially boost our mood. Though recent technological advances afford greater means for connection than at any other moment in human history, many people still feel lonely and disconnected. Indeed, loneliness in the American population has become a pressing issue, and Americans’ trust in each other has reached a historic low. You find yourself surrounded by people whose ears are closed off, whose eyes are down and whose attention is elsewhere. ____18____. For all these reasons, it is helpful to think about how you can be more mindful and intentional about who you pay attention to. ____19____: make an effort to notice people around you more and use your energy not only for what you must do, but also to build real connections. As historian Timothy Snyder writes, eye contact and small talk are not just about politeness, but about responsibility as a member of society. You may greet someone you don’t know, or show your willingness to welcome other people rather than displaying disinterest and avoidance. Such simple acts may help to foster feelings of belonging and build a sense of community with others. ____20____. A. Humans are social beings B. Many people don’t actually do so at all C. It’s natural for human beings to offer help to others D. As I often suggest, try what I call “psychological generosity” E. You might feel like no one really cares whether you exist or not F. To conclude, building relationships with people is key to broadening our minds G. Ultimately, both individual well-being and community health grow from social connection 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，共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。 “There is no way I can live out of a suitcase!” I thought as we ____21____ our home in Venice, Italy.

I am surprised you didn’t know that he is as blind as a bat!” Hearing Nathan’s words, I wanted to land a blow on him for making fun of my two-year-old brother, David, but I was more desperate (渴望的) to find out the truth. With a misty (模糊的) vision, I ran home as fast as I could. Still out of breath, I questioned, “Is David blind?” Mother turned to me with tears in her eyes. “Yes, he’s born blind.” It was a heartbreaking moment. I knew clearly the dream of showing David my cool soccer moves or playing video games with him ended cruelly. “Why did you keep the truth from me? I often wondered why he didn’t look at me or why he was always tripping over (被绊倒) things and I thought it was because he was still too young...” Before I could continue any further, mother hugged me and cried, “I’m sorry, Caleb. Dad and I just didn’t know how to tell you.” Suddenly, it struck me that David was blind but he could still hear the whole conversation. Not wanting him to be affected by it, I stopped crying and went forward and embraced him. “I love you so much, David.” Worry crept upon (开始影响) me: How hard life would be for him! Little did I know that David was to inspire (鼓舞) me so greatly. As David grew up, he was fairly strong-willed. Despite the challenges that he faced, he continued to attend the school for visually impaired (视力受损) children. He insisted he would take the bus home on his own. Often, he would walk through the main door, looking sheepish (不好意思的) and saying the same phrase, “Sorry Mum, I am late. I boarded the wrong bus again.” Tough as life was, there was always silver lining (一线希望) of misfortune. Despite not being able to see, he could play a piece of music after listening to it, being played once on the piano. He even dreamed of playing solo (独奏) one day on stage. Luckily for him, the school had discovered David’s extraordinary (非凡的) talent. 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。 One day, David burst through the main door excitedly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tapping the ground with his walking stick, David entered the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
