It’s eight o’clock on Christmas morning. Dad says he wants to listen to the news. My 11-year-old self can’t understand why grown-ups would care about news when there are presents to open. Then, while I’m half-listening, something unusual happens: the newsreader begins talking about a Christmas message we’ve already heard.
My older brother, Colin, figures it out. “Pete, it’s a tape recorder! We’ve got our tape recorder! ”
It finally dawns on me: my dad recorded the news and is playing it back.
I think it’s rare to experience real excitement over a present, but for me this was one of those moments. Colin and I were both blind from birth. At our boarding school, a recorder of your own was the height of joy. But Colin — more realistic about family finances — had no real expectations of getting one. I later realized a tape recorder cost more than four times dad’s weekly wage.
The new toy, the size of a small suitcase, dominated the rest of the holidays. Once we mastered the controls, we recorded everything. For the first time — like sighted children seeing themselves in a mirror — we got the sense of ourselves as those who existed outside our own head. It was both exciting and embarrassing.
When I returned to school, I walked around with my microphone, recording my thoughts like the voices on the radio. Ten years later, I walked into a radio station, hoping to become a broadcast journalist. Twenty-five years later, I presented my first report for BBC TV’s Six O’Clock News — a programme my dad never missed. Though he’d been dead for over a decade, I like to think he knew his Christmas present changed my life.
4. Why did dad want to listen to the news on Christmas morning?
A. He expected to give the boys a surprise. B. He was postponing handing out his presents.
C. He had always enjoyed listening to the news. D. He missed the Christmas news the day before.
5. What does the underlined “real excitement over a present” in paragraph 4 reflect?
A. His pride in his father’s creativity. B. His surprise at new technology.
C. His curiosity about the unexpected gift. D. His gratitude for a truly special gift.
6. What did the recorder enable the boys to do when they started to use it?
A. Hear each other more clearly. B. Pursue a career in broadcasting.
C. Discover more about themselves. D. Make their own radio programmes.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. My Journey to a Journalist B. A Gift That Changed a Life
C. My Father’s Deep Hidden Love D. A Special Christmas Morning
C
With a love and fascination for traditional culture, many young Chinese have begun to use their creativity to innovate (创新) using elements from China’s intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产).
Papercutting, the traditional Chinese art of paper design, has been adopted in many creative arts, including food and clothing. On the Chinese lifestyle-focused social media platform Xiaohongshu, a video of cookies featuring a paper-cut styled dragon pattern received over 2.6 million views and 130,000 likes. Liu Shan, a stay-at-home mother who loves Chinese papercutting, is the baker behind the cookies. Liu started designing her dragon pattern last November and spent five days making the cookies before the Spring Festival. She said she would complete all the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac (生肖) since they are so well-received.
Young craftswoman Chen Lingling created a cloak (斗篷) featuring Chinese paper-cut patterns. As an intangible cultural heritage enthusiast, Chen has made a variety of different clothing and headwear, with the aim of making cultural heritage part of young people’s daily lives. She chose auspicious patterns like phoenix and golden fish to deliver her Spring Festival greetings. People believe these patterns will bring good luck. Her video featuring the cloak has received around 750,000 views and earned her fans from both China and abroad, encouraging her to continue her interest in intangible cultural heritage.
According to the latest report published by Xiaohongshu, users of the platform uploaded nearly one million posts with the topic “recreation” between February 9, the Chinese New Year’s Eve, and February 16. Analysts say these recreations show young people’s creativity and enthusiasm for life, and the innovations that use elements of intangible cultural heritage reflect their growing cultural confidence.
8. What can we learn about Liu Shan from the passage?
A. She got inspiration from her friends.
B. She began her innovating practices to achieve fame.
C. She has been motivated to continue her creation.
D. She has completed all the Chinese zodiac cookies.
9. What does the underlined word “auspicious” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Lucky. B. Unusual. C. Simple. D. Complex.
10. What can we infer from the latest report published by Xiaohongshu?
A. Users of Xiaohongshu prefer uploading posts.
B. Xiaohongshu enjoys great popularity home and abroad.
C. Young Chinese are showing their creativity on social platforms.
D. Young Chinese are increasingly confident about their own culture.
11. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Social media promotes traditions. B. Traditional crafts need modern updates.
C. Zodiac patterns are becoming fashionable. D. Youth innovate heritage with cultural confidence.
D
Parents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with doubt, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something silly or even dangerous. Their worries make sense. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.
In the following years, Steinberg examined why teens were more likely to take risks in the company of other teenagers. In a later study, by scanning (扫描) the brains of 40 teens and adults, Steinberg found the brains of teenagers, but not adults, showed greater activity in two parts related to rewards (奖赏) when they were being watched by same-age peers. The reward systems of the brain start working whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which makes them feel good. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which makes them want to seek higher-risk experiences.
But Steinberg thought peer pressure might also have its positive side. In the latest study, Steinberg’s team used a card game to research how peers influence the way young people gather and apply information. It included 101 teenage boys who played either alone or with three peers. They chose cards from four decks (牌堆): two decks had “good” cards, and two “bad” ones. Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them to win. The results showed that teens playing with their peers do more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.
Now some experts are suggesting that we should take advantage of the teens’ strong sensitivity (敏感性) to the presence of friends to improve education. “Risk taking in an educational setting is a very important skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.
12. What does the author want to say by mentioning Steinberg’s study?
A. Parents’ worries are reasonable. B. Teens drive more carelessly with peers.
C. Adults are better drivers than teens. D. Peer pressure only brings harm.
13. What is the reason behind teens’ dangerous behavior?
A. Inability to tell right from wrong. B. A sense of satisfaction.
C. Eagerness to follow their friends. D. Lack of social experience.
14. How does risk-taking influence teens in the latest study?
A. It starts fights between them. B. It inspires them to question.
C. It weakens their independence. D. It helps them to learn better.
15. What does Blakemore think of involving peers in learning?
A. Helpful. B. Unnecessary. C. Risky. D. Challenging.

Guiding Children in Choosing After-school Activities
Many children today face stress from school, friends, or competition. Nina Kaiser, a licensed psychologist based in San Francisco, reminds parents that after-school activities should not add more pressure. ____16____. Kaiser points out, “Younger kids often try many activities because they are still finding out what they like — and that is normal.” So how can parents help their children choose the right activities?
To begin with, parents should allow children to join in the decision-making. ____17____. When they feel that their voices are heard, they often show more energy and excitement toward the activity.
Next, it is necessary to value each child’s personal interests. Every child has different hobbies and talents (天资). If parents force them to do something they dislike, children may feel stressed or upset. ____18____. This will make learning easier and more enjoyable.
____19____. Sometimes children may want to give up on an activity. Parents do not need to decide right away. Instead, they should talk with the child, wait patiently, and think of possible changes. Through discussion, both sides can find a solution together.
Lastly, parents should avoid putting too much pressure. Not every child will find his or her passion (爱好) right away. It is normal for children to face difficulties at the beginning, especially when they are still learning. ____20____.
A. What matters is to study something useful
B. Parents shouldn’t allow them to drop the activity

D. Instead, they should give children the chance to learn and grow

52. 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。
Mrs Flippen’s class sat listening to a talk being given by a local author, Charlotte. Tucker sat absent-mindedly in one of the library chairs. Most of the students wanted to hear about the writer’s work. Tucker did not.
“Why bother?” Tucker thought to himself. He always received low marks on his writing assignments, no matter how hard he worked on them. He could never think of anything interesting to write about.
“Does anyone have any questions?” Mrs Flippen asked her class.
Tucker raised his hand, “How do you know what to write about?”
“Well, sometimes I don’t,” the author replied. “It takes a lot of hard work to come up with ideas.” She reached down and pulled a worn-looking book from a cloth bag on the floor. “I find making a scrapbook (剪贴簿) helps.”
Tucker sat up a little straighter in his seat. “What’s in the book?” he asked.
“I fill it with pictures, stories, and notes about things that interest me.” The writer opened the scrapbook on her knee. “When I need an idea, I look through the book instead of staring at a blank page.”
Tucker thought about the author’s scrapbook as he walked home. He thought about staring at a blank page each time he tried to write a story. Digging in his bookcase, Tucker found an old binder (活页夹). He filled the binder with notepaper from his desk. After supper, Tucker cut some pictures out of the newspaper. Then he drew some pictures of his own. He cut and pasted (粘贴) stories from his old magazines. Then he looked up the words he did not know and wrote down their meanings.
In the days and weeks that followed, Tucker collected more ideas. He found that the more he collected, the easier it became to find things to collect. Tucker’s book of ideas grew fatter and fatter. One morning, Mrs Flippen told the class about a story writing competition. Excitement filled the classroom as most students whispered about it.
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。
Tucker sat there, struggling with doubt.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then came the day when Mrs Flippen announced the result.

It’s eight o’clock on Christmas morning. Dad says he wants to listen to the news. My 11-year-old self can’t understand why grown-ups would care about news when there are presents to open. Then, while I’m half-listening, something unusual happens: the newsreader begins talking about a Christmas message we’ve already heard.
My older brother, Colin, figures it out. “Pete, it’s a tape recorder! We’ve got our tape recorder! ”
It finally dawns on me: my dad recorded the news and is playing it back.
I think it’s rare to experience real excitement over a present, but for me this was one of those moments. Colin and I were both blind from birth. At our boarding school, a recorder of your own was the height of joy. But Colin — more realistic about family finances — had no real expectations of getting one. I later realized a tape recorder cost more than four times dad’s weekly wage.
The new toy, the size of a small suitcase, dominated the rest of the holidays. Once we mastered the controls, we recorded everything. For the first time — like sighted children seeing themselves in a mirror — we got the sense of ourselves as those who existed outside our own head. It was both exciting and embarrassing.
When I returned to school, I walked around with my microphone, recording my thoughts like the voices on the radio. Ten years later, I walked into a radio station, hoping to become a broadcast journalist. Twenty-five years later, I presented my first report for BBC TV’s Six O’Clock News — a programme my dad never missed. Though he’d been dead for over a decade, I like to think he knew his Christmas present changed my life.
4. Why did dad want to listen to the news on Christmas morning?
A. He expected to give the boys a surprise. B. He was postponing handing out his presents.
C. He had always enjoyed listening to the news. D. He missed the Christmas news the day before.
5. What does the underlined “real excitement over a present” in paragraph 4 reflect?
A. His pride in his father’s creativity. B. His surprise at new technology.
C. His curiosity about the unexpected gift. D. His gratitude for a truly special gift.
6. What did the recorder enable the boys to do when they started to use it?
A. Hear each other more clearly. B. Pursue a career in broadcasting.
C. Discover more about themselves. D. Make their own radio programmes.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. My Journey to a Journalist B. A Gift That Changed a Life
C. My Father’s Deep Hidden Love D. A Special Christmas Morning
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. B

With a love and fascination for traditional culture, many young Chinese have begun to use their creativity to innovate (创新) using elements from China’s intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产).
Papercutting, the traditional Chinese art of paper design, has been adopted in many creative arts, including food and clothing. On the Chinese lifestyle-focused social media platform Xiaohongshu, a video of cookies featuring a paper-cut styled dragon pattern received over 2.6 million views and 130,000 likes. Liu Shan, a stay-at-home mother who loves Chinese papercutting, is the baker behind the cookies. Liu started designing her dragon pattern last November and spent five days making the cookies before the Spring Festival. She said she would complete all the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac (生肖) since they are so well-received.
Young craftswoman Chen Lingling created a cloak (斗篷) featuring Chinese paper-cut patterns. As an intangible cultural heritage enthusiast, Chen has made a variety of different clothing and headwear, with the aim of making cultural heritage part of young people’s daily lives. She chose auspicious patterns like phoenix and golden fish to deliver her Spring Festival greetings. People believe these patterns will bring good luck. Her video featuring the cloak has received around 750,000 views and earned her fans from both China and abroad, encouraging her to continue her interest in intangible cultural heritage.
According to the latest report published by Xiaohongshu, users of the platform uploaded nearly one million posts with the topic “recreation” between February 9, the Chinese New Year’s Eve, and February 16. Analysts say these recreations show young people’s creativity and enthusiasm for life, and the innovations that use elements of intangible cultural heritage reflect their growing cultural confidence.

Parents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with doubt, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something silly or even dangerous. Their worries make sense. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.
In the following years, Steinberg examined why teens were more likely to take risks in the company of other teenagers. In a later study, by scanning (扫描) the brains of 40 teens and adults, Steinberg found the brains of teenagers, but not adults, showed greater activity in two parts related to rewards (奖赏) when they were being watched by same-age peers. The reward systems of the brain start working whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which makes them feel good. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which makes them want to seek higher-risk experiences.
But Steinberg thought peer pressure might also have its positive side. In the latest study, Steinberg’s team used a card game to research how peers influence the way young people gather and apply information. It included 101 teenage boys who played either alone or with three peers. They chose cards from four decks (牌堆): two decks had “good” cards, and two “bad” ones. Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them to win. The results showed that teens playing with their peers do more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.
Now some experts are suggesting that we should take advantage of the teens’ strong sensitivity (敏感性) to the presence of friends to improve education. “Risk taking in an educational setting is a very important skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.
12. What does the author want to say by mentioning Steinberg’s study?
A. Parents’ worries are reasonable. B. Teens drive more carelessly with peers.
C. Adults are better drivers than teens. D. Peer pressure only brings harm.
13. What is the reason behind teens’ dangerous behavior?
A. Inability to tell right from wrong. B. A sense of satisfaction.
C. Eagerness to follow their friends. D. Lack of social experience.
14. How does risk-taking influence teens in the latest study?
A. It starts fights between them. B. It inspires them to question.
C. It weakens their independence. D. It helps them to learn better.
15. What does Blakemore think of involving peers in learning?
A. Helpful. B. Unnecessary. C. Risky. D. Challenging.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了青少年与同龄人在一起时更容易冒险的原因,并通过实验表明同龄人的影响也会促使青少年在学习方面取得更好的表现,专家建议利用青少年对朋友的敏感来促进教育。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Parents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with doubt, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something silly or even dangerous. Their worries make sense. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.(青少年的父母常常对孩子的朋友心存疑虑,他们担心孩子会被同龄人驱使去做一些愚蠢甚至危险的事情。他们的担忧是有道理的。在之前的一项研究中,心理学家劳伦斯·斯坦伯格发现,与同龄人一同乘车的青少年司机发生交通事故的风险要高于独自驾车或与成年人一同驾车的司机)”可知,作者提及斯坦伯格的研究是想表达父母们的担忧是有道理的。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The reward systems of the brain start working whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which makes them feel good. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which makes them want to seek higher-risk experiences.(当人们体验到一些有益的东西时,大脑的奖励系统就会被激活,比如吃到美味的食物,这会让他们感觉很好。在这种情况下,青少年获得的奖励更大,这促使他们寻求更高风险的体验)”可知,青少年之所以会有危险行为,是因为他们寻求奖励,寻求满足感,所以获得满足感是青少年危险行为背后的原因。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them to win. The results showed that teens playing with their peers do more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.(有同伴的玩家更愿意冒险,试图找出哪些牌组可以帮助他们获胜。结果表明,与同龄人一起玩的青少年比单独玩的青少年更有探索行为,学习速度更快,在任务中表现更好)”可知,在最新的研究中,有同伴的玩家更愿意冒险,而这种冒险可以帮助青少年学得更快,表现更好。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Risk taking in an educational setting is a very important skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.(伦敦大学学院的教授萨拉·杰恩·布莱克莫尔写道:“在教育环境中进行冒险是一种非常重要的技能,它能够促进进步和激发创造力。”)”可知,布莱克莫尔认为让同龄人参与学习这件事是有帮助的。故选A。

Guiding Children in Choosing After-school Activities
Many children today face stress from school, friends, or competition. Nina Kaiser, a licensed psychologist based in San Francisco, reminds parents that after-school activities should not add more pressure. ____16____. Kaiser points out, “Younger kids often try many activities because they are still finding out what they like — and that is normal.” So how can parents help their children choose the right activities?
To begin with, parents should allow children to join in the decision-making. ____17____. When they feel that their voices are heard, they often show more energy and excitement toward the activity.
Next, it is necessary to value each child’s personal interests. Every child has different hobbies and talents (天资). If parents force them to do something they dislike, children may feel stressed or upset. ____18____. This will make learning easier and more enjoyable.
____19____. Sometimes children may want to give up on an activity. Parents do not need to decide right away. Instead, they should talk with the child, wait patiently, and think of possible changes. Through discussion, both sides can find a solution together.
Lastly, parents should avoid putting too much pressure. Not every child will find his or her passion (爱好) right away. It is normal for children to face difficulties at the beginning, especially when they are still learning. ____20____.
A. What matters is to study something useful
B. Parents shouldn’t allow them to drop the activity
C. Another key point is to keep open communication
D. Instead, they should give children the chance to learn and grow
E. With patience and support, they will finally find what they love

第二节(满分25分)
52. 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。
Mrs Flippen’s class sat listening to a talk being given by a local author, Charlotte. Tucker sat absent-mindedly in one of the library chairs. Most of the students wanted to hear about the writer’s work. Tucker did not.
“Why bother?” Tucker thought to himself. He always received low marks on his writing assignments, no matter how hard he worked on them. He could never think of anything interesting to write about.
“Does anyone have any questions?” Mrs Flippen asked her class.
Tucker raised his hand, “How do you know what to write about?”
“Well, sometimes I don’t,” the author replied. “It takes a lot of hard work to come up with ideas.” She reached down and pulled a worn-looking book from a cloth bag on the floor. “I find making a scrapbook (剪贴簿) helps.”
Tucker sat up a little straighter in his seat. “What’s in the book?” he asked.
“I fill it with pictures, stories, and notes about things that interest me.” The writer opened the scrapbook on her knee. “When I need an idea, I look through the book instead of staring at a blank page.”
Tucker thought about the author’s scrapbook as he walked home. He thought about staring at a blank page each time he tried to write a story. Digging in his bookcase, Tucker found an old binder (活页夹). He filled the binder with notepaper from his desk. After supper, Tucker cut some pictures out of the newspaper. Then he drew some pictures of his own. He cut and pasted (粘贴) stories from his old magazines. Then he looked up the words he did not know and wrote down their meanings.
In the days and weeks that followed, Tucker collected more ideas. He found that the more he collected, the easier it became to find things to collect. Tucker’s book of ideas grew fatter and fatter. One morning, Mrs Flippen told the class about a story writing competition. Excitement filled the classroom as most students whispered about it.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Then came the day when Mrs Flippen announced the result.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Tucker sat there, struggling with doubt. He glanced at his thick idea binder and wondered if he could write a good story. Memories of his low writing grades flooded his mind. However, his binder full of pictures and notes encouraged him. He took a deep breath and decided to have a try. Turning the pages, he picked out an interesting scene and began to organize his thoughts. Gradually, his story flowed out smoothly, filled with lively details he had collected before.
Then came the day when Mrs Flippen announced the result. When Mrs Flippen read out that Tucker won first prize, he could hardly believe his ears. She praised his creative story and showed it to the whole class. Tucker held his idea binder tightly, a big smile spreading across his face. His classmates looked at him with admiration. He realized good stories did not come naturally. It was the collection of small ideas that helped him succeed.
