B Staring at lines of complex code glowing on her multiple screens, 15-year-old Maya rubbed her tired, aching eyes. Seldom had she felt such heavy pressure to complete a project within a strict time limit. Her grandmother, recently kept in a plain and simple hospital room, deeply missed her beloved rose garden, which used to be her entire world. Determined to bring back her grandmother's lost joy, Maya decided on a bold plan; she would build a virtual reality paradise entirely from the beginning. The initial design phase proved far more challenging than expected. Faced with endless technical problems, Maya spent countless sleepless nights working on software errors. Her fingers flying across the keyboard, she coded carefully to build every single petal and leaf again. With the equipment setup finally completed after three weeks of hard work, Maya gently placed the heavy VR glasses over her grandmother's tired eyes. Everyone in the quiet hospital room held their breath anxiously. Suddenly, the old woman cried out in soft surprise. Instead of the sad white walls, a lively digital garden appeared around her, full of softly moving roses and the gentle sound of virtual bees. Determined to perfectly copy the natural movement of the ancient willow trees, Maya had frequently studied outdoor videos late into the night. To make the experience truly believable, she even added a smart fan system in the room to create a gentle spring breeze, Reaching out to touch a digital butterfly, her grandmother let a tear roll down her wrinkled cheek. “Thank you for everything, my sweet girl,” she whispered, holding her hands together in deep gratitude. “It feels exactly like home,” Technology is frequently blamed for separating today's youth from the real world, but Maya proved the exact opposite. Her lines of code did far more than simply run a computer program; they successfully built a digital bridge-connecting a sick patient in bed straight back to the life she loved. 24. What motivated Maya to create the virtual reality project? A. To practice advanced programming skills. B. To bring her bedridden grandma comfort. C. To test out a newly purchased VR headset. D. To win a school digital design competition. 25. What made the virtual experience feel incredibly real? A. The physical breeze generated by a fan. B. The high-quality screen of the monitor. C. The real flowers placed around the bed. D. The cheerful music playing in the room. 26. How did the grandmother most likely feel when experiencing the virtual garden? A. Amazed but somewhat doubtful. B. Deeply touched and grateful. C. Saddened and deeply homesick. D. Pleased but extremely tired. 27. What would be the most suitable title for this text? A. A High-Tech Medical Treatment B. A Teenage Programming Genius C. A Digital Bridge Built by Love D. A Virtual Reality Hospital Tour C Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been lost for more than half a century. Male chingolos learn their unique, two-second melody from adult males. “It is a distinctive song— like a fingerprint, but learned,” says one of the researchers. “It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the birds’ way of saying, ‘This is me, and here I am.’” However, urbanization and habitat loss have broken this learning chain, causing local song “dialects” to disappear. Driven by this problem, researchers took on a pioneering task: bringing back a song that had disappeared from the wild— known only from a musical record made in the 1960s—to a population of chingolos. Using physics-based modeling of the birds’ vocal tract(声道), the team first created an accurate artificial version of the lost song. They then engineered this model into a physical device designed to broadcast the forgotten melody—a “robotic tutor”. This artificial song was introduced to the chingolos in a park during their critical learning period from October to February. The sessions took place during peak singing hours and were limited to a maximum of eight hours. There were random pauses in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal responses. The results were impressive. Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own population’ s “accent” to the final trill(颤音), which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and inborn characteristics “This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity,” says another researcher. The team is now developing AI systems to automatically identify individual bird songs and planning to study cultural spread in bird populations to ensure that bird culture is not lost again. 28. Why did the researchers teach the birds the song? A. To save an endangered species. B. To study the birds’ brain structure. C. To develop new robotic devices. D. To preserve the birds’ cultural heritage, 29. What is a role of chingolos’ song? A. It keeps hunters away from them. B. It helps them adapt to urban growth. C. It functions as their social identity. D. It makes them remember their habitat. 30. What is the purpose of the random pauses? A. To protect the birds' vocal tract. B. To test the birds' reaction speed. C. To push the birds to catch the beat. D. To trick the birds into interaction. 31. What do the birds' learning results suggest? A. Young birds simply copy what they hear. B. Birds song reflects both learning and nature. C. Local accents make new songs hard to learn. D. Bird populations develop songs independently. D Although photovoltaic cells(光伏电池) and wind turbines(涡轮机) were invented almost 150 years ago, they still generate only 7% of the world's electricity today. This might appear to show limited progress. Nevertheless, the situation is changing rapidly: over the past decade, these renewable technologies have grown faster than any other energy source, as their costs continue to fall and make them competitive with fossil fuels. BP, an energy enterprise, expects renewables to account for half of the growth in global energy supply over the next 20 years. It is no longer hard to believe that the world is entering an era of clean, unlimited and cheap power, where society could rely less on polluting fossil fuels and more on sustainable energy sources. However, there is a $20-trillion hitch. In the coming decades, huge amounts of investment will be needed to replace old polluting power plants, upgrade outdated infrastructure(基础设施), and improve the power lines that deliver electricity reliably to homes and businesses. Normally investors enjoy putting their money into electricity because it brings reliable returns. Yet green energy has a dirty secret. The more it is used, the more it drives down the price of electricity from all sources. That makes it difficult to manage the transition to a carbon-free future, when many kinds of power generation, both clean and dirty, need to remain profitable. Unless the market is fixed, subsidies(补贴) to the industry will only grow. Policymakers are beginning to see this problem as a reason to slow down the use of renewable energy. In some parts of Europe and China, investment in renewables is falling because subsidies have been reduced. However, the answer is not to use less wind and solar power, but to rethink how clean energy is priced so that it can be used more effectively, thereby helping energy providers remain profitable and enabling clean energy to contribute fully to a sustainable, low-carbon energy future. 32. What do we know about renewable energy according to the first paragraph? A. Its costs are still higher than fossil fuels. B. It faces no financial or market challenges. C. It generates most of the world's electricity. D. It is growing fastest and becoming cheaper. 33. What does the underlined word “hitch” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Opportunity. B. Problem. C. Solution. D. Advantage. 34. Why does the transition to a carbon-free future become difficult? A. Green energy increases the overall cost of electricity generation. B. Falling prices make many types of power generation unprofitable. C. Investors are no longer investing in the global electricity industry. D. The government has stopped providing subsidies for green energy. 35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Better pricing may support clean energy growth. B. Lower subsidies may improve energy efficiency. C. Slower expansion may protect energy providers. D. Higher prices may attract more investment. 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。 Most students know the feeling: an essay is due tomorrow and could be finished without much trouble, yet instead of beginning, they tidy their desks or check their phones. Researchers say this habit of putting things off is rarely laziness; it is usually a way of escaping the discomfort a task creates 36 That is why the habit is worth breaking. The good news is that putting things off is a habit, not a fixed personality—and habit can be rebuilt. One effective way is to break a large task into small, clear steps. 37 Each small step gives the brain a sense of progress, and the desire to continue usually grows after we begin not before. Changing how we talk to ourselves helps too. Many students are held back not by the difficulty of a task but by the fear that the result will not be good enough. If a friend felt anxious about starting, we would hardly call them lazy; we might remind them that a rough beginning is still a beginning. 38 A third way is to make the start rewarding. Pair the first minutes of work with something pleasant— music, a warm drink, a clean desk— and plan a short break after each finished part. ___39 Then, remind yourself that the discomfort of beginning usually passes quickly. Each time you start, you prove to your brain that beginning is possible— and often rewarding, None of these methods asks for perfection. 40 Every tiny step— opening the file, writing one sentence, reading one page— teaches the brain to move toward what matters instead of away from discomfort. Over time, those small starts add up to something powerful. A. A little reward makes the first step less punishing. B. Students need to feel ready before they take the first step. C. Instead of the whole essay, promise yourself one opening sentence. D. The escape brings relief at first, but the delay ends in greater stress later. E. Small steps, kindness, and rewards can turn delay into a lasting habit of beginning. F. Blaming ourselves strengthens our wish to avoid the task, while kindness makes starting much easier. G. Many students say they often work best under pressure and wait until the very last minute to begin. 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。 A Devoted Dog As the Camp Fire continued, killing at least 85 people and displacing thousands more in Northern California, Madison, a shepherd dog, waited there.

In South Africa, AI-assisted tools from China are helping doctors improve medicine 56 (analysis). Across the country's sugarcane belt, Chinese-made drones now spray fields 57 once relied on manual labor. Behind these applications 58 (lie) long-standing digital infrastructure development. From 4G towers serving remote communities in northern Namibia to fiber backbones 59 (stretch) across Zimbabwe, from a base station perched on Mount Kilimanjaro to community broadband in Kenya’ s Kibera neighborhood, connectivity has 60 (steady) expanded across the continent. 61 (take) together, these developments point to a broader shift in the digital cooperation between China and Africa.

Vera, the head of her class's booth, was known for her carefulness and sense of responsibility. Her best friend, Evan, was warm-hearted but a little careless, so he was put in charge of attracting customers and carrying boxes. On the day of the bazaar, the school yard was crowded and lively. Students called out, selling cookies, bookmarks, and handmade paintings, and the donation box filled up quickly. Vera was busy counting money and recording every sale, while Evan ran back and forth carrying goods. Meanwhile, a quiet boy named Kevin stayed in the crowd near the donation box, though nobody paid him any attention. When the bazaar ended, the class gathered to count the money and found one hundred yuan short. The teacher asked if anyone had noticed anything unusual. A classmate said Evan had been alone beside the donation box in the afternoon and had looked nervous. Evan’s face turned red, and he kept repeating, “I didn't take it,” but the doubtful looks around him made his voice shake. Then a scene flashed back to Vera. In the busiest moment of the afternoon, when Evan was carrying a pile of boxes outside, she had seen Kevin's hand slip into the donation box and out in a flash, a banknote disappearing into his pocket. She had been about to cry out when Kevin looked up, his face pale and his eyes pleading. As the class separated, Kevin stopped Vera in the hallway. “Please don't tell anyone, “he begged in a low, trembling voice. “My family is going through a hard time, and my mother has been ill. I know it was wrong—I just couldn't help it.” Before she could reply, he turned and hurried away, leaving Vera rooted to the spot, her mind in turmoil(混乱). 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, Vera lay awake, Kevin's pale face staying in her mind. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Vera walked up to Kevin with her heart racing. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
