Here’s Where to Go If you plan a getaway in the back half of 2026, it is a wise choice. July to December falls in the shoulder seasons (平季) of many popular destinations, bringing smaller crowds, lower prices and a more relaxing travel experience compared with busy summer peaks. The 2026 Virtuoso Luxe Report shows Japan has beaten Italy to become travellers’ top pick for the first time. Greece, Croatia and Fiji are also highly recommended. Japan enjoys great popularity. September and October are free from summer heat with nice weather for sightseeing. Its famous autumn leaves reach their best from mid-November to early December. Avoid Silver Week in mid-September, when tourist sites get crowded. Autumn is also perfect for Italy. The heat fades and queues shorten. You can wander ancient streets and enjoy slow meals without pushing through crowds. In Greece, September and October offer pleasant temperatures for sightseeing and island-hopping. Athens’ theatre season starts in October. Note that some island hotels and sites reduce opening hours after summer. Croatia’s beautiful coast attracts many visitors. Travelling outside summer helps you escape cruise crowds. Fiji is the nearest among these destinations. It has warm weather all year round and suits families and celebration trips. For travellers who prefer less crowded Europe, Malta, Montenegro and Albania are good choices. You may also pick local trips with no jet lag, such as wine tours or reef visits. No matter where you go, book flights and hotels early. Today’s travellers value meaningful trips rather than simply checking tourist spots off a list. 1. What do Japan, Italy, Greece and Croatia have in common for travellers in the second half of 2026? A. They offer colourful autumn leaves for sightseeing. B. They keep all tourist sites open for longer hours. C. Travellers can enjoy mild weather and less crowded conditions in autumn. D. They are easy to reach without long flights. 2. What does the author advise travellers to do? A. Visit Japan during Silver Week. B. Book flights and hotels in advance. C. Choose summer for Croatia’s coast. D. Treat travelling as finishing a task list. 3. The text is most probably written for ______. A. professional travel advisers B. managers of tourist attractions C. students studying foreign cultures D. people planning holiday trips 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，文章主要讲述2026年下半年热门旅行目的地推荐与实用出行建议。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中对日本的介绍“September and October are free from summer heat with nice weather for sightseeing.(九月和十月没有夏日酷暑，拥有适合观光的宜人天气)”、第三段中对意大利的介绍“The heat fades and queues shorten.(暑气消退，排队时长缩短)”、第四段中对希腊的介绍“In Greece, September and October offer pleasant temperatures for sightseeing and island-hopping.(在希腊，九月和十月拥有适合观光和跳岛游的宜人温度)”、第五段中对克罗地亚的介绍“Travelling outside summer helps you escape cruise crowds.(在夏季之外出行能帮你避开游轮带来的大量人群)”可知，这几个目的地的共同之处是旅行者可以在秋季享受到温和的天气和不那么拥挤的出行环境。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“No matter where you go, book flights and hotels early.(无论你去哪里，都要尽早预订机票和酒店)”可知，作者建议旅行者提前预订机票和酒店。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章标题“Planning Your Second-Half 2026 Holiday? Here’s Where to Go(正在规划你的2026年下半年假期？这里是你该去的地方)”以及全文的旅行目的地推荐内容可知，这篇文章最有可能写给正在规划假期旅行的人群。 B Hubei’s Jiayu County has set a good example of combining agricultural innovation with industrial growth by developing home-grown cabbage seeds, cutting dependence on imported ones. Back in the 1980s, China heavily relied on costly, unstable imported cabbage seeds. Starting in 2008, Jiayu cooperated with agricultural researchers. After a decade-long study, they launched Zhonggan 1305, a winter-suitable cabbage strain in 2018. It now occupies 70 percent of Jiayu’s winter cabbage fields and is widely planted across the Yangtze River basin. Besides seed breeding, Jiayu applies digital farming technologies: round-the-clock sensors monitor field conditions, digital platforms standardize the whole production process, and QR codes enable product traceability. These technologies aim to keep vegetables affordable for consumers while guaranteeing farmers’ profits. Farmers can check real-time growth data of cabbages on their mobile phones. With fewer wastes and stable quality, their product is more competitive in markets. The booming vegetable industry creates local jobs, allowing villagers to earn steady pay nearby. In 2025, Jiayu had 460,000 mu of vegetable land, yielding 1.36 million tons of vegetables worth 6.4 billion yuan. Its produce is sold domestically and exported to South Korea, Japan, Russia and other nations. Experts point out that Jiayu’s success proves scientific research fuels local industries. Independently-developed seed varieties are vital for industrial competitiveness. China’s vegetable sector is shifting focus toward higher quality and better economic returns, benefiting both growers and consumers. 4. What do we know about the new type of cabbage from the text? A. It is developed with independently-developed seeds and smart farming techniques. B. It can grow well without any care from farmers. C. It was introduced from foreign agricultural research centers. D. It has been widely planted across the whole country. 5. Which word can best describe the researchers developing the cabbage? A. Devoted and creative. B. Ambitious and conservative. C. Patient and persuasive. D. Cautious and competitive. 6. Why does the author mention the data in Paragraph 4? A. To show the great achievement of the new planting project. B. To prove cabbage is the most popular vegetable in Hubei. C. To remind readers of food safety problems in farming. D. To present the positive effects of promoting the new cabbage. 7. What will probably happen to Jiayu’s cabbage industry in the future? A. It will rely less on digital technology for field management. B. It will achieve further development with better seed research. C. It will expand cabbage planting to other provinces rapidly. D. It will mainly export its seeds rather than cabbages. 【答案】4. A 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍湖北嘉鱼县自主研发甘蓝种子，运用数字农业技术，推动蔬菜产业发展并带动地方经济。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Hubei’s Jiayu County has set a good example of combining agricultural innovation with industrial growth by developing home-grown cabbage seeds, cutting dependence on imported ones.(湖北嘉鱼县自主培育甘蓝种子，降低对进口种子的依赖，为农业创新与产业发展相结合树立了良好典范。)”以及第三段中的“Besides seed breeding, Jiayu applies digital farming technologies: round-the-clock sensors monitor field conditions, digital platforms standardize the whole production process, and QR codes enable product traceability.(除了育种之外，嘉鱼还应用数字农业技术：全天候传感器监测田间状况，数字平台规范整个生产流程，二维码实现产品溯源。)”可知，这种甘蓝依托自主种子和智慧农业技术培育种植。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Starting in 2008, Jiayu cooperated with agricultural researchers. After a decade-long study, they launched Zhonggan 1305, a winter-suitable cabbage strain in 2018.(从2008年起，嘉鱼与农业科研人员开展合作。历经十年研究，他们在2018年培育出适合冬季种植的甘蓝品种中甘1305。)”可知，科研人员潜心钻研、勇于创新，可用专注且富有创造力形容。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The booming vegetable industry creates local jobs, allowing villagers to earn steady pay nearby. In 2025, Jiayu had 460,000 mu of vegetable land, yielding 1.36 million tons of vegetables worth 6.4 billion yuan.(蓬勃发展的蔬菜产业为当地创造了就业岗位，让村民可以在家门口获得稳定收入。2025年，嘉鱼拥有46万亩蔬菜种植地，蔬菜产量136万吨，产值64亿元。)”可知，作者列举数据是为展现推广该甘蓝带来的积极效益。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Experts point out that Jiayu’s success proves scientific research fuels local industries. Independently-developed seed varieties are vital for industrial competitiveness.(专家指出，嘉鱼的成功证明科研能够带动地方产业。自主研发的种子品种对产业竞争力至关重要。)”可知，后续甘蓝产业会依托良种研发进一步发展。 C Appearance-optimization culture, known as “looksmaxxing”, greatly influences teenagers’ self-view. Ordinary worries about looks turn into endless pressure to change, compare and fix themselves. Perfect appearance pictures on social media hurt teenagers’ body image, and looksmaxxing is an extreme case. The term appeared online before 2020 but grew popular in 2022-2023. Many online trends about facial analysis and skincare attract large numbers of teen audiences. Social media is very common among teens. Almost half of them stay online nearly all the time. They do not even need to search for related videos. Algorithms push appearance-related content to users automatically. Different from old beauty standards that stay steady for years, online beauty trends can shift overnight. Teenagers feel they must keep changing themselves to follow fast-changing trends, stuck in a cycle of comparison. Frequent exposure to such content creates real pressure. Some looksmaxxing actions are similar to serious mental health problems. Young people may fixate on imagined physical weaknesses and develop compulsive habits to change them. Some even try dangerous home methods to reshape their faces or control body weight. Still, not all appearance-changing efforts do harm. Makeup, sports and skincare can be ways to show personality and build confidence. Problems arise only when these habits take over daily life and damage health. Some teens waste much time on strict beauty routines or avoid social events due to self-doubt. When looksmaxxing goes too far, teens keep judging themselves strictly. They feel forced to correct supposed flaws (瑕疵，缺陷), which brings anxiety, shame and low self-respect. They measure themselves against unrealistic online standards. Each new trend feels like a must-meet rule rather than a passing online fad. Many teens believe they can never become “good-looking enough”. Besides, this trend makes beauty influencers widely admired. Influenced by such content, young people cannot easily tell which methods are reasonable. Looksmaxxing teaches teens to treat their faces as forever-unfinished projects. If one’s value depends mainly on appearance, normal self-insecurity will become much harder to deal with. 8. What makes teenagers trapped in endless comparison about appearance? A. The steady traditional beauty standards. B. Automatic push of appearance-related content by online algorithms. C. The slow update of online fashion trends. D. Teenagers’ seldom use of social media. 9. What does the underlined word “compulsive” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. voluntary B. destructive C. uncontrollable D. temporary 10. What can we infer from the text? A. Appearance-improving behaviors are sure to harm teens. B. Teens can figure out proper online beauty guidance with little effort. C. Extreme looksmaxxing may result in negative emotional experiences among teens. D. Most teens are willing to follow the changing online beauty trends. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. The looksmaxxing culture and its influence on teenagers. B. Ways teenagers can build confidence through skincare. C. Popular social media platforms among modern teenagers. D. The role of social media in looksmaxxing culture. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述“颜值优化”文化及其对青少年的多重影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题‌。根据第二段中“Algorithms push appearance-related content to users automatically. Different from old beauty standards that stay steady for years, online beauty trends can shift overnight. Teenagers feel they must keep changing themselves to follow fast-changing trends, stuck in a cycle of comparison.(算法会自动向用户推送和外貌相关的内容。和多年来保持稳定的传统审美标准不同，网络审美潮流一夜之间就可能改变，青少年觉得必须不断改变自己跟上快速变化的潮流，陷入攀比的循环中)”可知，是算法自动推送外貌相关内容让青少年陷入外貌攀比。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题‌。根据第三段中“Young people may fixate on imagined physical weaknesses and develop compulsive habits to change them. Some even try dangerous home methods to reshape their faces or control body weight.(年轻人可能会执着于想象出来的身体缺陷，养成compulsive习惯去改变它们，甚至有人尝试危险的居家方法去重塑脸型或控制体重)”可推知，年轻人可能会执着于想象出来的身体缺陷，养成难以自控的习惯去改变它们，compulsive意为“无法自控的、不受控制的”，和uncontrollable语义一致。 【10题详解】 推理判断题‌。根据第五段中“When looksmaxxing goes too far, teens keep judging themselves strictly. They feel forced to correct supposed flaws (瑕疵，缺陷), which brings anxiety, shame and low self-respect.(当颜值优化行为走向极端时，青少年会不断严苛评判自己，被迫去修正所谓的缺陷，这会带来焦虑、羞耻和自卑情绪)”可推知，极端的颜值优化行为可能给青少年带来负面情绪体验。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题‌。全文围绕“looksmaxxing”这种外貌优化文化展开，atmosphere介绍了它的起源、传播方式，以及它给青少年带来的正反两方面影响，核心主题就是颜值优化文化及其对青少年的影响。 D Apple is expected to present its most radical (重大的，彻底的) iPhone redesign in years this Wednesday — giving new CEO John Ternus an early test of whether he can restart innovation at the tech giant during a challenging time. The California-based company is set to show its first-ever foldable iPhone at its annual product show, alongside new high-end iPhone 18 models. The new device — said to have names like iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold — is expected to be about the size of a passport when fully folded, with the capacity to fold out to a wider display with a roughly 4:3 aspect ratio (宽高比). The foldable marks a major change to iPhone’s familiar design, coming as Apple looks for another breakout hardware success. Its Vision Pro headset drew wide public attention in 2024 yet has failed to win over consumers. The launch comes days after Ternus took over from longtime CEO Tim Cook last Tuesday. The 50-year-old Apple veteran previously ran the company’s hardware division. He inherits a firm facing doubts over its artificial intelligence strategy, including a long-delayed rebuild of Siri, and whether it can deliver another hit as its current product lines grow old. Whether new products can satisfy picky customers will be a key question for Wednesday’s event. Apple may also present a long-rumored home hub (枢纽，中心设备) with a display and smart-speaker functions, acting as a control center for smart devices and entertainment. Apple is also expected to show finished major system software versions. The foldable will run a special system version adapted for its two-screen design. For years, critics have argued Apple has only improved a decade-old design formula. A successful foldable would silence such criticism and prove the world’s most valuable company can still surprise users. However, a disappointing launch would deepen doubts about Apple’s future and whether Ternus, Cook’s hand-picked successor, is fit to lead the firm into its next decade. 12. What do we know about Apple’s first foldable iPhone? A. It has already been officially named iPhone Ultra. B. It will replace all the existing iPhone 18 models. C. It will open out to a wider screen with an approximately 4:3 aspect ratio. D. It will be as large as a passport when unfolded. 13. What was John Ternus’s position before becoming CEO? A. He led Apple’s artificial intelligence research team. B. He designed the Vision Pro headset in 2024. C. He served as Apple’s longtime head of marketing. D. He was in charge of the company’s hardware department. 14. What can we learn about Apple’s Wednesday event? A. It will mainly focus on the sales data of new products. B. A smart home device may be shown at the event. C. The finished system software will not be displayed. D. The foldable iPhone will use the same system as ordinary iPhones. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward Apple’s new foldable iPhone? A. Objective B. Pessimistic C. Fully supportive D. Indifferent 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍苹果即将发布首款折叠iPhone，新CEO面临考验，这款产品的成败将影响外界对苹果创新能力的评价。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The new device — said to have names like iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold — is expected to be about the size of a passport when fully folded, with the capacity to fold out to a wider display with a roughly 4:3 aspect ratio.(这款新设备，据传叫iPhone Ultra或者iPhone Fold，完全折叠时大约和护照一样大，可以展开成更宽的屏幕，宽高比约为4比3。)”可知，这款折叠iPhone展开后屏幕宽高比大约为4:3。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The 50-year-old Apple veteran previously ran the company’s hardware division.(这位50岁的苹果老员工此前主管公司的硬件部门。)”可知，John Ternus在担任CEO之前负责苹果硬件部门。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Apple may also present a long-rumored home hub with a display and smart-speaker functions, acting as a control center for smart devices and entertainment.(苹果也可能展出一款传闻已久、带有屏幕和智能音箱功能的家居枢纽设备，作为智能设备和娱乐的控制中心。)”可知，一款智能家居设备有可能在本次发布会上亮相。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“A successful foldable would silence such criticism and prove the world’s most valuable company can still surprise users. However, a disappointing launch would deepen doubts about Apple’s future and whether Ternus, Cook’s hand-picked successor, is fit to lead the firm into its next decade.(如果折叠手机大获成功，这些批评声将会平息，证明这家全球市值最高的公司仍能给用户惊喜。但如果发布效果不佳，会加深人们对苹果未来以及库克选定的继任者Ternus能否带领公司迈入下一个十年的质疑。)”可知，作者既说明了产品成功带来的积极影响，也点明失败会引发的问题，态度客观。 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。 You’re Not Listening, Just Waiting to Speak Ask people whether they are good listeners, and most will probably say yes. Yet many of us confuse listening with simply waiting for our turn to speak. While the other person is talking, we filter (过滤) their words through our own assumptions and begin preparing a response. ____16____ A technique called looping (循环倾听法) can interrupt this habit. ____17____ Listen for what matters most to the speaker, summarize what you heard in your own words, and ask whether you understood correctly. If your summary is incomplete, follow up with a simple question such as, “What did I miss?” ____18____ It also requires us to admit that our first interpretation may be wrong. Looping goes beyond repeating someone’s words. Drawing on ideas associated with Nonviolent Communication, it asks listeners to pay attention to four things: what the person observed, how they feel, what they need and what they may be asking for. These details often reveal the concern beneath the surface of the conversation. Tone is just as important as technique. ____19____ Compare, “So you’re upset because you didn’t get your way,” with, “I’m wondering whether you felt left out of that decision. Is that close?” The first sentence tells someone how they feel. The second offers an interpretation and gives them room to correct it. Looping is unnecessary in most casual conversations. It is most useful when emotions are strong, the issue matters or a misunderstanding could damage a relationship. In those moments, taking a few seconds to ask, “Did I get that right?” can stop two people from talking past each other. ____20____ It is about remaining curious enough to discover whether the meaning you heard is the meaning the other person intended. A. It includes three clear steps. B. Looping is mainly used to avoid arguments in daily chats. C. By the time they finish, we may already have decided what they meant. D. That final step matters because it turns understanding into something the other person can confirm or correct. E. A summary delivered with sarcasm (讽刺) or too much certainty can sound like criticism. F. Good listening is not about producing the perfect response. G. Looping requires listeners to share their own feelings first. 【答案】16. C 17. A 18. D 19. E 20. F 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了“循环倾听法”这一技巧，指出真正的倾听不是等待发言，而是通过复述、提问和关注语气来确认对方的意思。 【16题详解】 上文“Ask people whether they are good listeners, and most will probably say yes. Yet many of us confuse listening with simply waiting for our turn to speak. While the other person is talking, we filter (过滤) their words through our own assumptions and begin preparing a response.(问人们是否是好的倾听者，大多数人可能会说是。然而，我们中的许多人把倾听与仅仅等待轮到自己发言混为一谈。当对方说话时，我们用自己的假设过滤他们的话语，并开始准备回应)”指出许多人把倾听误解为等待发言，并在对方说话时就开始准备回应。C选项“By the time they finish, we may already have decided what they meant.(等他们说完时，我们可能已经决定了他们是什么意思)”承接上文，进一步说明这种“假倾听”的后果——在对方说完之前就已经预设了对方的意图，与上文中的“begin preparing a response”和“filter their words through our own assumptions”直接呼应，上下文语意连贯。 【17题详解】 上文“A technique called looping (循环倾听法) can interrupt this habit.(一种叫做循环倾听法的技巧可以打断这种习惯)”引出“循环倾听法”这一概念，A选项“It includes three clear steps.(它包括三个明确的步骤)”承接上文，进一步说明这一方法的结构——包含三个步骤；下文“Listen for what matters most to the speaker, summarize what you heard in your own words, and ask whether you understood correctly.(倾听对说话者最重要的内容，用自己的话总结你听到的内容，并询问你是否理解正确)”具体列举了这三个步骤——倾听、总结、询问，与A选项中的“three clear steps”直接呼应。 【18题详解】 上文“Listen for what matters most to the speaker, summarize what you heard in your own words, and ask whether you understood correctly. If your summary is incomplete, follow up with a simple question such as, ‌“What did I miss?”(倾听对说话者最重要的内容，用自己的话总结你听到的内容，并询问你是否理解正确。如果你的总结不完整，追问一个简单的问题，比如“我漏掉了什么?”)”描述了循环倾听法的三个步骤，D选项“That final step matters because it turns understanding into something the other person can confirm or correct.(最后一步很重要，因为它把理解变成了对方可以确认或纠正的东西)”承接上文，强调了三个步骤中最后一步(询问是否理解正确)的重要性——让对方确认或纠正；下文“It also requires us to admit that our first interpretation may be wrong.(它还要求我们承认我们的第一解释可能是错误的)”进一步说明了这一步的意义，与D选项中的“confirm or correct”直接呼应，上下文语意连贯。 【19题详解】 上文“Tone is just as important as technique.(语气和技巧同样重要)”指出语气的重要性，E选项“A summary delivered with sarcasm (讽刺) or too much certainty can sound like criticism.(带着讽刺或过于确定的语气进行总结，听起来可能像批评)”承接上文，从反面具体说明了语气不当可能带来的问题——听起来像批评；下文“Compare, ‌“So you’re upset because you didn’t get your way,” with, ‌“I’m wondering whether you felt left out of that decision. Is that close?” The first sentence tells someone how they feel. The second offers an interpretation and gives them room to correct it.(比较一下“所以你不高兴是因为你没有如愿以偿”和“我想知道你是否觉得被排除在那个决定之外。这样说接近吗?”第一句话告诉别人他们的感受。第二句提供了一种解释，并给他们纠正的空间)”通过具体例子对比了不当语气和恰当语气的效果，与E选项中的“sarcasm or too much certainty”形成呼应，上下文语意连贯。 【20题详解】 上文“In those moments, taking a few seconds to ask, ‌“Did I get that right?” can stop two people from talking past each other.(在那些时刻，花几秒钟问一句“我理解对了吗?”可以阻止两个人各说各话)”指出循环倾听法在关键时刻的作用——避免各说各话，F选项“Good listening is not about producing the perfect response.(好的倾听不在于给出完美的回应)”承接上文，进一步澄清了倾听的本质——不在于完美回应，而在于确认理解；下文“It is about remaining curious enough to discover whether the meaning you heard is the meaning the other person intended.(它关乎保持足够的好奇心，去发现你听到的意思是否是对方想要表达的意思)”进一步阐释了倾听的真正含义，与F选项中的“not about producing the perfect response”形成对比，上下文语意连贯。 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，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was the hottest day of the summer.

OUR SANDY is singing again!” Kayla, our star, was rehearsing (排练) “Tomorrow” when Baily, our dog, decided it was his moment to shine. His ear-splitting a-roooo echoed Kayla’s emotional high notes. “Knock it off!” Kayla shouted at the dog. She motioned for the orchestra to stop. “This isn’t working! I can’t sing this song until we find a decent Sandy!” She stormed off the stage. Sandy was supposed to be merely a supporting role in Tomorrow, our school’s musical about an orphan and the stray (流浪) dog she rescued. But Baily clearly thought otherwise. He was our third Sandy, but I knew he would not be the last. The first Sandy we hired barked at everyone. The second Sandy would run wildly around the stage, knocking down props (道具) and turning the set into a mess. Mr. Loomis, our director, was very close to just getting a stuffed animal or an actor in a dog suit. “Ashley, can you find another dog by Monday?” Mr. Loomis asked. “Sure,” I said, feeling a bit overwhelmed. Being the assistant stage manager, I never imagined that finding the perfect dog would be so hard. We needed a dog with a winning personality and, ideally, some of Kayla’s star qualities — a dog that looked beautiful and confident on stage. After rehearsal, our assistant director suggested that I speak to his neighbour, Mrs. Kelly, who ran the local animal shelter. Desperate, I agreed to at least take a look. I’d avoided the shelter so far because we needed a star, not a sad rescue case. We walked to Mrs. Kelly’s house. Once there, she greeted us with a huge smile and introduced us to Farley, a calm, friendly dog that used to work part-time at an airport comforting nervous passengers before being hit by a car. Farley’s soulful eyes and striking black-and-white fur seemed like the perfect combination — just what we needed for Sandy. 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。 As I looked closer, however, I noticed that Farley was missing a leg. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Surprisingly, Mr. Loomis said that Farley was going to be fantastic onstage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： As I looked closer, however, I noticed that Farley was missing a leg. A knot of worry tightened in my stomach — could a three-legged dog really perform on stage? What if he couldn’t handle it, and I ended up losing my chance to work as a stage assistant? Sensing my concern, Mrs. Kelly placed a gentle hand on my shoulder and reassured me, saying Farley was gentle and brave, which would make him a fantastic Sandy. I nodded in agreement, though I could still feel uncertainty tugging at the edges of my mind. The next morning, I brought Farley in front of Mr. Loomis, my nerves building as I waited for his response. Surprisingly, Mr. Loomis said that Farley was going to be fantastic onstage. It turned out that he was right. During the rehearsal, Farley stayed calm, never barking or running around like the other dogs. He seemed to understand his role perfectly, providing quiet comfort to Kayla’s character, just as he had done with nervous passengers at the airport. Farley charmed us with his three-legged stride and gentle movements, capturing our hearts through a soothing presence that touched everyone. When the rehearsal ended, we burst into applause. At that moment, I realized that the perfect Sandy wasn’t defined by how he looked, but by how he made others feel. 【解析】 【导语】本文以排练为线索展开，讲述了作者和搭档要排练音乐剧《明天》，其中需要一只狗的角色，为了找到合适的狗，他们试验了好几只狗狗，最终作者终于如愿以偿，找了合适的狗狗，并且排练成功的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，当我走近看时，我注意到Farley少了一条腿。”可知，第一段可描写作者怀疑Farley是否能够胜任这一角色。 ②由第二段首句内容“令人惊讶的是，Loomis说Farley会在舞台上表现出色。”可知，第二段可描写Farley排练过程中的配合，能够成功胜任角色。 2.续写线索：作者怀疑——主人安慰——作者同意——排练配合——排练成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①处理：handle/deal with ②赞同：nod in agreement/approve ③鼓掌：applause/clapping 情绪类 ①温柔的：gentle/tender ②紧张的：nervous/tense 【点睛】[高分句型1] Sensing my concern, Mrs. Kelly placed a gentle hand on my shoulder and reassured me, saying Farley was gentle and brave, which would make him a fantastic Sandy.

Here’s Where to Go If you plan a getaway in the back half of 2026, it is a wise choice. July to December falls in the shoulder seasons (平季) of many popular destinations, bringing smaller crowds, lower prices and a more relaxing travel experience compared with busy summer peaks. The 2026 Virtuoso Luxe Report shows Japan has beaten Italy to become travellers’ top pick for the first time. Greece, Croatia and Fiji are also highly recommended. Japan enjoys great popularity. September and October are free from summer heat with nice weather for sightseeing. Its famous autumn leaves reach their best from mid-November to early December. Avoid Silver Week in mid-September, when tourist sites get crowded. Autumn is also perfect for Italy. The heat fades and queues shorten. You can wander ancient streets and enjoy slow meals without pushing through crowds. In Greece, September and October offer pleasant temperatures for sightseeing and island-hopping. Athens’ theatre season starts in October. Note that some island hotels and sites reduce opening hours after summer. Croatia’s beautiful coast attracts many visitors. Travelling outside summer helps you escape cruise crowds. Fiji is the nearest among these destinations. It has warm weather all year round and suits families and celebration trips. For travellers who prefer less crowded Europe, Malta, Montenegro and Albania are good choices. You may also pick local trips with no jet lag, such as wine tours or reef visits. No matter where you go, book flights and hotels early. Today’s travellers value meaningful trips rather than simply checking tourist spots off a list. 1. What do Japan, Italy, Greece and Croatia have in common for travellers in the second half of 2026? A. They offer colourful autumn leaves for sightseeing. B. They keep all tourist sites open for longer hours. C. Travellers can enjoy mild weather and less crowded conditions in autumn. D. They are easy to reach without long flights. 2. What does the author advise travellers to do? A. Visit Japan during Silver Week. B. Book flights and hotels in advance. C. Choose summer for Croatia’s coast. D. Treat travelling as finishing a task list. 3. The text is most probably written for ______. A. professional travel advisers B. managers of tourist attractions C. students studying foreign cultures D. people planning holiday trips B Hubei’s Jiayu County has set a good example of combining agricultural innovation with industrial growth by developing home-grown cabbage seeds, cutting dependence on imported ones. Back in the 1980s, China heavily relied on costly, unstable imported cabbage seeds. Starting in 2008, Jiayu cooperated with agricultural researchers. After a decade-long study, they launched Zhonggan 1305, a winter-suitable cabbage strain in 2018. It now occupies 70 percent of Jiayu’s winter cabbage fields and is widely planted across the Yangtze River basin. Besides seed breeding, Jiayu applies digital farming technologies: round-the-clock sensors monitor field conditions, digital platforms standardize the whole production process, and QR codes enable product traceability. These technologies aim to keep vegetables affordable for consumers while guaranteeing farmers’ profits. Farmers can check real-time growth data of cabbages on their mobile phones. With fewer wastes and stable quality, their product is more competitive in markets. The booming vegetable industry creates local jobs, allowing villagers to earn steady pay nearby. In 2025, Jiayu had 460,000 mu of vegetable land, yielding 1.36 million tons of vegetables worth 6.4 billion yuan. Its produce is sold domestically and exported to South Korea, Japan, Russia and other nations. Experts point out that Jiayu’s success proves scientific research fuels local industries. Independently-developed seed varieties are vital for industrial competitiveness. China’s vegetable sector is shifting focus toward higher quality and better economic returns, benefiting both growers and consumers. 4. What do we know about the new type of cabbage from the text? A. It is developed with independently-developed seeds and smart farming techniques. B. It can grow well without any care from farmers. C. It was introduced from foreign agricultural research centers. D. It has been widely planted across the whole country. 5. Which word can best describe the researchers developing the cabbage? A. Devoted and creative. B. Ambitious and conservative. C. Patient and persuasive. D. Cautious and competitive. 6. Why does the author mention the data in Paragraph 4? A. To show the great achievement of the new planting project. B. To prove cabbage is the most popular vegetable in Hubei. C. To remind readers of food safety problems in farming. D. To present the positive effects of promoting the new cabbage. 7. What will probably happen to Jiayu’s cabbage industry in the future? A. It will rely less on digital technology for field management. B. It will achieve further development with better seed research. C. It will expand cabbage planting to other provinces rapidly. D. It will mainly export its seeds rather than cabbages. C Appearance-optimization culture, known as “looksmaxxing”, greatly influences teenagers’ self-view. Ordinary worries about looks turn into endless pressure to change, compare and fix themselves. Perfect appearance pictures on social media hurt teenagers’ body image, and looksmaxxing is an extreme case. The term appeared online before 2020 but grew popular in 2022-2023. Many online trends about facial analysis and skincare attract large numbers of teen audiences. Social media is very common among teens. Almost half of them stay online nearly all the time. They do not even need to search for related videos. Algorithms push appearance-related content to users automatically. Different from old beauty standards that stay steady for years, online beauty trends can shift overnight. Teenagers feel they must keep changing themselves to follow fast-changing trends, stuck in a cycle of comparison. Frequent exposure to such content creates real pressure. Some looksmaxxing actions are similar to serious mental health problems. Young people may fixate on imagined physical weaknesses and develop compulsive habits to change them. Some even try dangerous home methods to reshape their faces or control body weight. Still, not all appearance-changing efforts do harm. Makeup, sports and skincare can be ways to show personality and build confidence. Problems arise only when these habits take over daily life and damage health. Some teens waste much time on strict beauty routines or avoid social events due to self-doubt. When looksmaxxing goes too far, teens keep judging themselves strictly. They feel forced to correct supposed flaws (瑕疵，缺陷), which brings anxiety, shame and low self-respect. They measure themselves against unrealistic online standards. Each new trend feels like a must-meet rule rather than a passing online fad. Many teens believe they can never become “good-looking enough”. Besides, this trend makes beauty influencers widely admired. Influenced by such content, young people cannot easily tell which methods are reasonable. Looksmaxxing teaches teens to treat their faces as forever-unfinished projects. If one’s value depends mainly on appearance, normal self-insecurity will become much harder to deal with. 8. What makes teenagers trapped in endless comparison about appearance? A. The steady traditional beauty standards. B. Automatic push of appearance-related content by online algorithms. C. The slow update of online fashion trends. D. Teenagers’ seldom use of social media. 9. What does the underlined word “compulsive” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. voluntary B. destructive C. uncontrollable D. temporary 10. What can we infer from the text? A. Appearance-improving behaviors are sure to harm teens. B. Teens can figure out proper online beauty guidance with little effort. C. Extreme looksmaxxing may result in negative emotional experiences among teens. D. Most teens are willing to follow the changing online beauty trends. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. The looksmaxxing culture and its influence on teenagers. B. Ways teenagers can build confidence through skincare. C. Popular social media platforms among modern teenagers. D. The role of social media in looksmaxxing culture. D Apple is expected to present its most radical (重大的，彻底的) iPhone redesign in years this Wednesday — giving new CEO John Ternus an early test of whether he can restart innovation at the tech giant during a challenging time. The California-based company is set to show its first-ever foldable iPhone at its annual product show, alongside new high-end iPhone 18 models. The new device — said to have names like iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold — is expected to be about the size of a passport when fully folded, with the capacity to fold out to a wider display with a roughly 4:3 aspect ratio (宽高比). The foldable marks a major change to iPhone’s familiar design, coming as Apple looks for another breakout hardware success. Its Vision Pro headset drew wide public attention in 2024 yet has failed to win over consumers. The launch comes days after Ternus took over from longtime CEO Tim Cook last Tuesday. The 50-year-old Apple veteran previously ran the company’s hardware division. He inherits a firm facing doubts over its artificial intelligence strategy, including a long-delayed rebuild of Siri, and whether it can deliver another hit as its current product lines grow old. Whether new products can satisfy picky customers will be a key question for Wednesday’s event. Apple may also present a long-rumored home hub (枢纽，中心设备) with a display and smart-speaker functions, acting as a control center for smart devices and entertainment. Apple is also expected to show finished major system software versions. The foldable will run a special system version adapted for its two-screen design. For years, critics have argued Apple has only improved a decade-old design formula. A successful foldable would silence such criticism and prove the world’s most valuable company can still surprise users. However, a disappointing launch would deepen doubts about Apple’s future and whether Ternus, Cook’s hand-picked successor, is fit to lead the firm into its next decade. 12. What do we know about Apple’s first foldable iPhone? A. It has already been officially named iPhone Ultra. B. It will replace all the existing iPhone 18 models. C.

Yet many of us confuse listening with simply waiting for our turn to speak. While the other person is talking, we filter (过滤) their words through our own assumptions and begin preparing a response. ____16____ A technique called looping (循环倾听法) can interrupt this habit. ____17____ Listen for what matters most to the speaker, summarize what you heard in your own words, and ask whether you understood correctly. If your summary is incomplete, follow up with a simple question such as, “What did I miss?” ____18____ It also requires us to admit that our first interpretation may be wrong. Looping goes beyond repeating someone’s words. Drawing on ideas associated with Nonviolent Communication, it asks listeners to pay attention to four things: what the person observed, how they feel, what they need and what they may be asking for. These details often reveal the concern beneath the surface of the conversation. Tone is just as important as technique. ____19____ Compare, “So you’re upset because you didn’t get your way,” with, “I’m wondering whether you felt left out of that decision. Is that close?” The first sentence tells someone how they feel. The second offers an interpretation and gives them room to correct it. Looping is unnecessary in most casual conversations. It is most useful when emotions are strong, the issue matters or a misunderstanding could damage a relationship. In those moments, taking a few seconds to ask, “Did I get that right?” can stop two people from talking past each other. ____20____ It is about remaining curious enough to discover whether the meaning you heard is the meaning the other person intended. A. It includes three clear steps. B. Looping is mainly used to avoid arguments in daily chats. C. By the time they finish, we may already have decided what they meant. D. That final step matters because it turns understanding into something the other person can confirm or correct. E. A summary delivered with sarcasm (讽刺) or too much certainty can sound like criticism. F. Good listening is not about producing the perfect response. G. Looping requires listeners to share their own feelings first. 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，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was the hottest day of the summer.

OUR SANDY is singing again!” Kayla, our star, was rehearsing (排练) “Tomorrow” when Baily, our dog, decided it was his moment to shine. His ear-splitting a-roooo echoed Kayla’s emotional high notes. “Knock it off!” Kayla shouted at the dog. She motioned for the orchestra to stop. “This isn’t working! I can’t sing this song until we find a decent Sandy!” She stormed off the stage. Sandy was supposed to be merely a supporting role in Tomorrow, our school’s musical about an orphan and the stray (流浪) dog she rescued. But Baily clearly thought otherwise. He was our third Sandy, but I knew he would not be the last. The first Sandy we hired barked at everyone. The second Sandy would run wildly around the stage, knocking down props (道具) and turning the set into a mess. Mr. Loomis, our director, was very close to just getting a stuffed animal or an actor in a dog suit. “Ashley, can you find another dog by Monday?” Mr. Loomis asked. “Sure,” I said, feeling a bit overwhelmed. Being the assistant stage manager, I never imagined that finding the perfect dog would be so hard. We needed a dog with a winning personality and, ideally, some of Kayla’s star qualities — a dog that looked beautiful and confident on stage. After rehearsal, our assistant director suggested that I speak to his neighbour, Mrs. Kelly, who ran the local animal shelter. Desperate, I agreed to at least take a look. I’d avoided the shelter so far because we needed a star, not a sad rescue case. We walked to Mrs. Kelly’s house. Once there, she greeted us with a huge smile and introduced us to Farley, a calm, friendly dog that used to work part-time at an airport comforting nervous passengers before being hit by a car. Farley’s soulful eyes and striking black-and-white fur seemed like the perfect combination — just what we needed for Sandy. 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。 As I looked closer, however, I noticed that Farley was missing a leg. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Surprisingly, Mr. Loomis said that Farley was going to be fantastic onstage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
