History is written, read, told — but rarely ever is it smelled.
Historians and scientists across Europe have now gotten together with perfumers(调香师)and museums for a unique project: to reveal what Europe smelled like between the 16th and early 20th centuries. A European street today may smell like coffee, fresh-baked bread and cigarettes. But what did it smell like hundreds of years ago? As part of this three-year-long project called “Odeuropa”, the researchers want to find all the old scents(气味)of Europe — and even recreate some of this ancient smellscape: from the dry tobacco scents to the smelly canals.
To do this, they will first build artificial intelligence (AI) that will be trained to go through historical texts, written in seven different languages, for any descriptions of scents. The AI will also be trained to detect images of objects in the texts that might be scented. The team will then use this information to create an online encyclopedia(百科全书)of smells from Europe’s past.
The encyclopedia will include the meaning of certain scents and will trace the stories behind scents, places and related practices, according to project leader Angela Lee. “This database will become a library for the smell heritage of Europe, enabling future generations to access and learn about the scented past.” The encyclopedia will also include descriptions of people for whom smell was important.
The researchers will then work with chemists and perfume makers to recreate past smells and figure out how to display the smells in museums and other historical sites. With current technology, almost every scent can be produced. “The more difficult part of the project will be to find descriptions of scents, because people haven’t always talked or written about them,” Lee said.
Scent plays a central role in our everyday life, even acting as a powerful time machine into our own past with its ability to activate long-forgotten memories. But it’s also a key tool in telling the stories of others. “Scent gives us access to the past in a much more direct and emotional way than language and images,” Lee said.
8. Why did the researchers start the “Odeuropa” project?
A. To rebuild a historical European street.
B. To make perfumes of traditional scents.
C. To find and recreate the smells of Europe.
D. To reproduce the scented past of Europe.
9. What will the AI do in the project?
A. Collect smell-related data.
B. Write interesting stories behind smells.
C. Detect objects by smell.
D. Describe smells in different languages.
10. Which of the following is the biggest challenge the project faces?
A. Scents of the past are hard to keep.
B. Records of scents are rarely found.
C. Technology to reproduce scents is poor.
D. Display of smells in museums costs a lot.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The application of past scents.
B. The effect of scents on memory.
C. The role of scent in story-telling.
D. The value of understanding scent.
D
Tearing up, sweating, nose running and other bodily functions are all signs when you’re eating spicy foods. Yet, millions of people worldwide actively seek out this burning feeling. The explanation lies not in our sense of taste, but in our complex nervous system and psychology.
The heat we perceive from chili peppers originates from capsaicin (辣椒素), a compound that acts as the plant’s chemical defense. It specifically targets TRPV1, a receptor (受体) present on nociceptors — the special nerve cells that detect potentially harmful factors, such as heat above 42℃. When activated, these cells trigger an instant alarm response, causing the body to react as if it’s been burned. This begs the question: why would we enjoy a feeling signaling potential danger?
The enjoyment of spicy food is learned through adaptation of the neural system. Initially, the brain misinterprets the capsaicin-caused heat as a potential threat, triggering an alarm-like response. Through repeated exposure, however, it receives consistent feedback indicating no actual tissue damage occurs. The feeling is gradually reassessed as non-threatening and manageable, transforming the initial pain into a form of “benign masochism”. Much like the thrill of a roller coaster ride, the perceived danger — now under our command — becomes an internal part of the pleasure.
Individual tolerance varies. Genetics can influence how sensitive one’s TRPV1 receptors are to capsaicin. More importantly, people can gradually build up a tolerance, essentially training their bodies and brains to handle higher levels of spiciness. The receptors themselves become less responsive over time, and the brain’s predictive system becomes more accurate.
12. Why does eating chili peppers give people the burning feeling?
A. Capsaicin briefly hurts taste buds. B. Chilli peppers bring potential danger.
C. Capsaicin triggers the reaction of TRPV1. D. Chilli peppers raise the body’s temperature.
13. Which experience is most similar to enjoying spicy food?
A. Listening to music. B. Smoking cigarettes.
C. Exploring the wilderness. D. Watching a horror film.
14. What does building a high spice tolerance involve?
A. Conscious efforts. B. Genetic adaptation.
C. Blocking spiciness signals. D. Keeping receptors from responding.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Capsaicin’s Trick: A False Burning Alarm B. The Spice Lover’s Dilemma: Pleasure in Pain
C. The Body’s Signal: Physical Reactions to Spice D. The Art of Endurance: Building Spice Tolerance
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。
After 20 years of teaching, I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___16___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades.
___17___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___18___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result.
The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___19___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too.
Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___20___
A. Teachers are to blame.
B. It is to ask how to improve.
C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault.
D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication.
E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire.
F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance.
G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far.

Recently, I read a magazine article stating that people tend to turn into their parents as they age. The ____21____ signs include complaining about the weather, choosing comfort over style in clothing, going to bed early, and repeating family recipes — like my mom’s Sunday roast beef, a British tradition I once laughed at. ____22____, this usually starts at 45, but I am certain it doesn’t ____23____ me, even though I’m 47.
I’ve always lived differently. My parents had a big house with a ping-pong table and ____24____ weekly tournaments (锦标赛). I rent a small flat near a recreation center for indoor tennis. Mom loved vegetable gardening, but I only grow flowers in small pots. I ____25____ camper-van trips (Dad’s favorite) and Sunday roasts, nor do I ____26____ and suddenly wake up while watching TV or moan about rain when it delays.
My daughter disagreed when I showed her the article. “Mom, you’re just like them,” she said as I ____27____ more chocolate cake, citing calories. “Grandma always counted calories!” She also pointed out I use Mom’s vintage teacups — ones I used to call “old-fashioned”. Her words made me ____28____. Later, I noticed that a friend ____29____ her house with wallpaper like her mom’s, and my sister ____30____ bought a ping-pong table for neighbors. I somehow caught myself humming Dad’s favorite Tony Bennett songs.
It was then that I realized these similarities are actually rather ____31____. I found home’s familiarity in Dad’s cuckoo clock and Mom’s split pea soup. So, instead of resisting, I learned to ____32____ this change. Last week, I even made Mom’s roast beef — it tasted like ____33____. I guess I’ve unknowingly become a mini ____34____ of my parents, and I must admit: I don’t just like it; I’m ____35____ for it.
21. A. rare B. typical C. random D. secret
22. A. Unluckily B. Ultimately C. Theoretically D. Slowly
23. A. apply to B. contribute to C. appeal to D. occur to
24. A. watched B. held C. missed D. canceled
25. A. expect B. prefer C. organise D. dislike
26. A. nod off B. turn off C. drop off D. cut off
27. A. baked B. refused C. consumed D. shared
28. A. hesitate B. defend C. reflect D. admit
29. A. tidied B. traded C. departed D. decorated
30. A. even B. merely C. roughly D. still
31. A. annoying B. entertaining C. comforting D. encouraging
32. A. embrace B. deny C. ignore D. manage
33. A. growth B. memory C. failure D. success
34. A. variety B. vision C. virtue D. version

Final exams were approaching, and everyone in school was excited about vacations. We were dreaming of far-off destinations, our minds filled with images of thrilling adventures.
After school on Friday, on my way home, I ran into my best friend. Enthusiastic about the vacations, I asked him about his plans. His eyes twinkled brightly as he replied, “I’m going to visit my grandparents with my parents for a week.”
“Don’t you ever get tired of going to the same place year after year? I remember, every year, your family takes 7 to 10 days off to head back to your native village,” I asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
“Oh, not at all! That’s the absolute best time of the year for me! Being with my folks in the village is just amazing.” His face beamed with joy as he continued, "In the village, I get to meet so many wonderful people, and everyone there is so kind and welcoming. Our neighborhood crew is tight! We’re always hanging out together, you know? Just running wild, chilling by the lake, or bouncing between each other’s houses. Honestly, I know what really matters about these village trips. It’s not the cool places we see — it’s spending time with the people I love. That’s the real treasure of life.”
His words made me recall my own grandparents. I realized I hadn’t seen them for years. But still, it’s a pleasure to be there. … we had big long gardens and a big multi-story house.
The next day, over breakfast, I mustered up the courage and asked my parents, “Can we visit grandparents this summer after exams?” Dad replied hesitantly, “Oh, that’s unexpected.” Mom was surprised. “Well, you know it gets really hot there this time of year.” After a short pause, Dad gave a small sigh and met my hopeful gaze. “However,” he said, “if you perform well in exams, we’ll make the trip.”
For the next six weeks, I threw myself completely into my studies. My mom was amazed by this sudden transformation in me. Soon came the long-awaited exam results.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;

History is written, read, told — but rarely ever is it smelled.
Historians and scientists across Europe have now gotten together with perfumers(调香师)and museums for a unique project: to reveal what Europe smelled like between the 16th and early 20th centuries. A European street today may smell like coffee, fresh-baked bread and cigarettes. But what did it smell like hundreds of years ago? As part of this three-year-long project called “Odeuropa”, the researchers want to find all the old scents(气味)of Europe — and even recreate some of this ancient smellscape: from the dry tobacco scents to the smelly canals.
To do this, they will first build artificial intelligence (AI) that will be trained to go through historical texts, written in seven different languages, for any descriptions of scents. The AI will also be trained to detect images of objects in the texts that might be scented. The team will then use this information to create an online encyclopedia(百科全书)of smells from Europe’s past.
The encyclopedia will include the meaning of certain scents and will trace the stories behind scents, places and related practices, according to project leader Angela Lee. “This database will become a library for the smell heritage of Europe, enabling future generations to access and learn about the scented past.” The encyclopedia will also include descriptions of people for whom smell was important.
The researchers will then work with chemists and perfume makers to recreate past smells and figure out how to display the smells in museums and other historical sites. With current technology, almost every scent can be produced. “The more difficult part of the project will be to find descriptions of scents, because people haven’t always talked or written about them,” Lee said.
Scent plays a central role in our everyday life, even acting as a powerful time machine into our own past with its ability to activate long-forgotten memories. But it’s also a key tool in telling the stories of others. “Scent gives us access to the past in a much more direct and emotional way than language and images,” Lee said.
8. Why did the researchers start the “Odeuropa” project?
A. To rebuild a historical European street.
B. To make perfumes of traditional scents.
C. To find and recreate the smells of Europe.
D. To reproduce the scented past of Europe.
9. What will the AI do in the project?
A. Collect smell-related data.
B. Write interesting stories behind smells.
C. Detect objects by smell.
D. Describe smells in different languages.
10. Which of the following is the biggest challenge the project faces?
A. Scents of the past are hard to keep.
B. Records of scents are rarely found.
C. Technology to reproduce scents is poor.
D. Display of smells in museums costs a lot.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The application of past scents.
B. The effect of scents on memory.
C. The role of scent in story-telling.
D. The value of understanding scent.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. B
【解析】

Tearing up, sweating, nose running and other bodily functions are all signs when you’re eating spicy foods. Yet, millions of people worldwide actively seek out this burning feeling. The explanation lies not in our sense of taste, but in our complex nervous system and psychology.
The heat we perceive from chili peppers originates from capsaicin (辣椒素), a compound that acts as the plant’s chemical defense. It specifically targets TRPV1, a receptor (受体) present on nociceptors — the special nerve cells that detect potentially harmful factors, such as heat above 42℃. When activated, these cells trigger an instant alarm response, causing the body to react as if it’s been burned. This begs the question: why would we enjoy a feeling signaling potential danger?
The enjoyment of spicy food is learned through adaptation of the neural system. Initially, the brain misinterprets the capsaicin-caused heat as a potential threat, triggering an alarm-like response. Through repeated exposure, however, it receives consistent feedback indicating no actual tissue damage occurs. The feeling is gradually reassessed as non-threatening and manageable, transforming the initial pain into a form of “benign masochism”. Much like the thrill of a roller coaster ride, the perceived danger — now under our command — becomes an internal part of the pleasure.
Individual tolerance varies. Genetics can influence how sensitive one’s TRPV1 receptors are to capsaicin. More importantly, people can gradually build up a tolerance, essentially training their bodies and brains to handle higher levels of spiciness. The receptors themselves become less responsive over time, and the brain’s predictive system becomes more accurate.
12. Why does eating chili peppers give people the burning feeling?
A. Capsaicin briefly hurts taste buds. B. Chilli peppers bring potential danger.
C. Capsaicin triggers the reaction of TRPV1. D. Chilli peppers raise the body’s temperature.
13. Which experience is most similar to enjoying spicy food?
A. Listening to music. B. Smoking cigarettes.
C. Exploring the wilderness. D. Watching a horror film.
14. What does building a high spice tolerance involve?
A. Conscious efforts. B. Genetic adaptation.
C. Blocking spiciness signals. D. Keeping receptors from responding.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Capsaicin’s Trick: A False Burning Alarm B. The Spice Lover’s Dilemma: Pleasure in Pain
C. The Body’s Signal: Physical Reactions to Spice D. The Art of Endurance: Building Spice Tolerance
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文解释人们喜爱辣食的原因:辣椒素刺激神经产生灼烧感,经反复接触,大脑将其判定为可控刺激,转化为快感。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The heat we perceive from chili peppers originates from capsaicin (辣椒素), a compound that acts as the plant’s chemical defense. It specifically targets TRPV1, a receptor (受体) present on nociceptors—the special nerve cells that detect potentially harmful factors, such as heat above 42℃.(我们从辣椒中感受到的热感源自辣椒素,这是一种植物的化学防御物质。它专门作用于TRPV1受体,该受体存在于伤害感受器(能够感知潜在有害因素,如超过42℃的高温)上)”可知,吃辣椒会让人们产生灼烧感是因为辣椒素会触发TRPV1受体的反应。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The feeling is gradually reassessed as non-threatening and manageable, transforming the initial pain into a form of “benign masochism”. Much like the thrill of a roller coaster ride, the perceived danger — now under our command — becomes an internal part of the pleasure.(这种感觉逐渐被重新评估为安全且可控的,从而将最初的痛苦转化为一种“良性受虐狂”的体验。就像乘坐过山车时的刺激感一样,我们所感知到的危险——如今已处于我们的掌控之中——成为了愉悦的一部分)”可知,享受辣食的快感属于“良性受虐”——明知没有实际伤害,却因可控的“危险感”获得刺激,和看恐怖片的体验逻辑一致(恐惧但安全)。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Individual tolerance varies. Genetics can influence how sensitive one’s TRPV1 receptors are to capsaicin. More importantly, people can gradually build up a tolerance, essentially training their bodies and brains to handle higher levels of spiciness. The receptors themselves become less responsive over time, and the brain’s predictive system becomes more accurate.(个体的耐受性各不相同。基因会影响一个人的 TRPV1 受体对辣椒素的敏感程度。更重要的是,人们可以逐渐形成耐受性,即通过训练让身体和大脑能够更好地应对更高的辣度。随着时间的推移,这些受体本身的反应会减弱,而大脑的预测系统也会变得更加准确)”可知,增强对辛辣食物的耐受能力需要积极主动的努力。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Tearing up, sweating, nose running and other bodily functions are all signs when you’re eating spicy foods. Yet, millions of people worldwide actively seek out this burning feeling. The explanation lies not in our sense of taste, but in our complex nervous system and psychology.(吃辛辣食物时,会出现流泪、出汗、流鼻涕等生理反应。然而,全球数以百万计的人却热衷于这种令人不适的感觉。其原因并非在于味觉,而是源于我们复杂的神经系统和心理状态)”结合本文解释人们喜爱辣食的原因:辣椒素刺激神经产生灼烧感,经反复接触,大脑将其判定为可控刺激,转化为快感,还介绍了耐辣方法。可知,B选项“辣味爱好者面临的困境:在痛苦中寻求愉悦”最符合文章标题。
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。
After 20 years of teaching, I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___16___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades.
___17___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___18___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result.
The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___19___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too.
Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___20___
A. Teachers are to blame.
B. It is to ask how to improve.
C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault.
D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication.
E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire.
F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance.
G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far.
【答案】16. F 17. C 18. G 19. B 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了当下学生将努力与成绩挂钩的现象,阐明成绩应基于知识掌握而非单纯付出的观点。
【16题详解】
根据空前“But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” (但最近我听到了一个新的抱怨:“我的成绩没有体现出我在这门课上付出的努力。”)”以及空后“In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. (过去,学生们都明白这一点,也知道A级成绩需要实打实的出色表现。然而如今,Z世代期望自己付出的努力多少能得到回报,而非依据掌握知识的质量来评判)”可知,此空应点明成绩的评定标准,即高分奖励的是优秀成果而非努力过程,F选项“High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. (高分是对优秀成果的奖励,而非对坚持不懈的努力的认可)”承接前文的学生抱怨,且引出后文的古今对比,符合语境。故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据空后“It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. (这是对一种流行的教育理论产生误解所导致的结果)”可知,此空应表明Z世代的这种想法并非其自身的过错,C选项“This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. (这并不是Z世代的错)”引出后文对该现象成因的分析,符合语境。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据空前“Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. (心理学家早就发现,奖励努力有助于培养强烈的职业道德,还能强化学习效果)”以及空后“We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. (我们已经从赞扬努力,变成了将努力本身当作最终目的。我们没能提醒他们,努力并不一定能保证把事情做好)”可知,此空应形成转折,指出如今人们对赞扬努力这件事做得过了头,G选项“But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. (但我们把赞扬勤奋这件事做得太过火了)”承接前文的正确理念,且引出后文的过度做法,符合语境。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据空前“The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. (面对不理想的成绩,理想的反应不是抱怨自己的勤奋没有得到回报)”以及空后“Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. (更努力地尝试并不总是解决问题的办法。有时候需要更聪明地学习,还有些时候则需要彻底转向其他方向)”可知,此空应说明面对不理想成绩的正确做法是寻求改进方法,B选项“It is to ask how to improve. (而是应该思考如何改进)”与前文的错误做法形成对比,且引出后文的具体建议,符合语境。故选B项。
【20题详解】
根据空前“The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. (衡量学习的真正标准,不是你投入了多少时间和精力)”可知,此空应点明衡量学习的真正标准是学到的知识和技能,E选项“It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. (而是你所掌握的知识和技能)”与前文形成“不是……而是……”的逻辑关系,符合语境。故选E项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了2025中国文化旅游产业博览会在武汉举办,主题为“深化文旅融合,共享美好生活”,展示了科技与文化融合的创新成果,促进了文旅消费和产业合作。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:由文化和旅游部在武汉主办的2025中国文化旅游产业博览会以“深化文旅融合,共享美好生活”为主题成为焦点。提示词作宾语,用名词integration,意为“融合”,不可数名词。故填integration。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:该活动吸引了超过22.5万人次参观,其中一半来自武汉以外的游客,活动以引人注目的科技文化创新为特色,从穿着戏服的人形机器人表演舞蹈到人工智能机器人辅助登山。“half of _____ were from tourists outside Wuhan”是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词over 225,000 visits,关系词将其代入定语从句中作介词of的宾语,应使用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:该活动吸引了超过22.5万人次参观,其中一半来自武汉以外的游客,活动以引人注目的科技文化创新为特色,从穿着戏服的人形机器人表演舞蹈到人工智能机器人辅助登山。“from...to...”是固定搭配,意为“从……到……”。故填from。
【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意:虚拟现实体验让游客可以在天津的海河上“划船”,或在湖北的武当山上“漫步”,而非物质文化遗产工作坊、地方表演、小吃和畅销的文化创意产品——如新疆馕形玩具——对游客极具吸引力。提示词修饰名词shows,用形容词regional作定语,意为“地方的”。故填regional。
【40题详解】

【41题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:贸易额大幅攀升,数十亿美元的项目投资与现货交易顺利落地,当地酒店预订量激增——这一切都彰显了博览会的深远影响力。secure(获得,得到)是分句谓语动词,与主语“spot trades(现货交易)”之间是被动关系,结合前文“Trade boomed”可知,讲述过去的事情,用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数名词,谓语动词用复数形式。故填were secured。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:通过与中国旅游协会合作打造数字化博物馆与人工智能导览服务,本届博览会充分展现了新时代的发展成就。“(partner) with the China Tourism Association on digital museums and AI-guided tours”作状语,partner(合作)用非谓语动词形式,与其逻辑主语“the expo”之间是主动关系,用现在分词表主动;句首单词首字母大写。故填Partnering。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:广东省机器人协会的专家强调,机器人不仅在提供个性化体验方面发挥着重要作用,而且在缓解人员短缺方面也发挥着重要作用。“play a/an...role in...”是固定短语,意为“在……中起……作用”,且essential发音以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:广东省机器人协会的专家强调,机器人不仅在提供个性化体验方面发挥着重要作用,而且在缓解人员短缺方面也发挥着重要作用。“not only...but (also)...”是复合连词,意为“不但……而且……”,其中also可以省略。故填but。

47. 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。
Final exams were approaching, and everyone in school was excited about vacations. We were dreaming of far-off destinations, our minds filled with images of thrilling adventures.
After school on Friday, on my way home, I ran into my best friend. Enthusiastic about the vacations, I asked him about his plans. His eyes twinkled brightly as he replied, “I’m going to visit my grandparents with my parents for a week.”
“Don’t you ever get tired of going to the same place year after year? I remember, every year, your family takes 7 to 10 days off to head back to your native village,” I asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
“Oh, not at all! That’s the absolute best time of the year for me! Being with my folks in the village is just amazing.” His face beamed with joy as he continued, "In the village, I get to meet so many wonderful people, and everyone there is so kind and welcoming. Our neighborhood crew is tight! We’re always hanging out together, you know? Just running wild, chilling by the lake, or bouncing between each other’s houses. Honestly, I know what really matters about these village trips. It’s not the cool places we see — it’s spending time with the people I love. That’s the real treasure of life.”
His words made me recall my own grandparents. I realized I hadn’t seen them for years. But still, it’s a pleasure to be there. … we had big long gardens and a big multi-story house.
The next day, over breakfast, I mustered up the courage and asked my parents, “Can we visit grandparents this summer after exams?” Dad replied hesitantly, “Oh, that’s unexpected.” Mom was surprised. “Well, you know it gets really hot there this time of year.” After a short pause, Dad gave a small sigh and met my hopeful gaze. “However,” he said, “if you perform well in exams, we’ll make the trip.”
For the next six weeks, I threw myself completely into my studies. My mom was amazed by this sudden transformation in me. Soon came the long-awaited exam results.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I rushed home and immediately handed my parents my score card and a note with “PLEASE.” This time, they instantly agreed. The next day, we set out for our hometown. Every one, be it relatives or neighbors, greeted us with smiles, treating me like their own son. Every day brought new happiness –- digging with Grandpa in the garden, playing games with cousins until sunset, roaming around familiar streets with loved ones and even joining the local kids in their football matches. The days passed as we had a wonderful time together. Truth be told, everything was more fun in a big family. When departure day came, my heart ached.
I saw my mom had tears in her eyes when leaving them. She wiped them away and smiled, saying, “I didn’t realize how much I missed the village until now. It’s not just a place; it’s where our roots are.” As we drove away, I felt a mix of excitement and nostalgia. I realized that the real adventure wasn’t about exploring far-off places but about reconnecting with family and our heritage. This trip wasn’t just for me; it was a reminder for all of us that family is the true treasure of life. From then on, visiting Grandma and Grandpa became our annual tradition, a time to cherish love, laughter, and the simple joys of being together.
