W: No, but Ive seen an ad for it on the National Theater TV channel. Why?
M: I was selected as an audience member for its re-release at the local cinema last night.
W: Oh, cool! How was it?
M: Really good! It’s about a barbershop in a poor community. At the heart of the play are the relationships among the people — the barbers, their customers, their community. We could see the cruel truth that society shows the poor. But what the barbers do for others only leaves the audience with a feeling of hope and courage. Anyway, it was a really life-affirming experience.
W: Sounds interesting. As a girl who grew up in a poor district, I guess I can see myself and my family in the characters. The barbershop is not just a place to have our hair done, but a secure space to be together and talk about the issues facing our communities.

M: Oh, are you the person who phoned yesterday? Wait...no. You're the lady who emailed last week about a space for your dance classes.
W: That’s right!
M: Well, it’s lovely to meet you in person. And I’m sure we can accommodate you. The community center has only been open for a few weeks, so we still have plenty of space available for bookings. How many people do you expect to have in each class?
W: About 20 to 30.
M: Maple Hall is probably a little small then. Oak Hall may be a better option. It's as large as a basketball court, so there’s plenty of space.
W: Okay.
M: Then there’s Ash Hall. It’s smaller than Oak, but still bigger than the first room. Plus, it has a bar and a seating area as well as a dance floor.
W: Oh, that sounds perfect for our monthly tea dances. Can I take a look at this room myself?
M: Sure, come with me. I’ll show you all the facilities.

【解析】
【原文】 My name is Sophie Dekker, a 20-year-old college student from Amsterdam, and I live in a nursing home! You probably think that’s pretty strange, so allow me to explain. I moved to Deventer two years ago, as this historic city’s university offers a great chemistry program. I discovered the Humanitas Retirement Village while searching for somewhere to live. This old people’s home was offering a special free housing program to college students in return for at least 30 hours a week spent socializing with the residents. This sounded perfect to me! I was always close to my grandparents. And I spent many happy hours helping Grandma make delicious apple cakes with fruit picked from Grandpa’s treasured garden. There were only six places for students, so I felt very lucky to gain the opportunity when I realized how nice my neighbors are! Like any other housemates, we watch TV, chat, play games, and make dinner together. I’m particularly close to one resident called Nora, who is so chatty and funny, and always shares her stories about her youth. She’s become one of my best friends, despite the 64-year age difference! Sometimes, old people’s homes can be sad and forgotten places. However, this program proves that with a little imagination, they really can play an active and central role in our communities.

B
As a school librarian, I spend a lot of my day quietly arguing with ideas my students have already accepted. Many of them walk into the library believing that reading is a silent chore, that stories are locked inside books, and that both have little to do with their real lives — soccer fields, group chats, kitchens, bus rides, or the music in their headphones. I have found that if I place an ordinary object beside a book, students begin to see reading not as a task to finish, but as a way of noticing how life works.
No matter what class comes through the door, I try to give them one small object to hold before we open the pages. For example, when a seventh-grade class reads a memoir about migration, I put a bent bus ticket, a seed packet, and a screenshot of a family playlist on the table. The ticket leads us to questions about distance and choice; the seed packet opens a discussion about roots and growth; the playlist reminds us that memory often arrives with sound attached. Students who first complained that the book was “too slow” suddenly start arguing about which detail matters most.
When I first used these objects, my goal was simple: wake the room up. But an unexpected thing happened. Students began leaving objects on my desk with sticky notes — a metro card, a grocery list, a keychain from a trip — and asking, “Can we read something around this?” Before long, a tenth grader was recommending novels to an eighth grader, and two boys who had never borrowed books became the unofficial curators (馆长) of our “small objects” shelf. The library stopped feeling like a room of rules and started feeling like a place where observations were traded.
What began as a trick is now closer to a belief. While planning lessons, I still ask myself, “What can students touch, question, or connect to?” Doing this energizes our sessions, makes abstract ideas such as theme, evidence, and perspective visible, and shows students that stories are not separate from reality. Best of all, when they see me getting excited about a bus ticket or a seed packet, they become more willing to believe that their own ordinary lives are worth reading — and writing — about.
24. What is the biggest challenge for the author as a librarian?
A. Students’ fixed ideas about reading.
B. Students’ distrust of librarians’ taste.
C. The unsatisfactory condition of the library.
D. The weak link between books and hobbies.
25. Why does the author use small objects together with books?
A. To collect students’ personal belongings for library displays.
B. To test students’ ability to tell different everyday objects apart.
C. To replace traditional reading tasks with hands-on object games.
D. To help students build links between books and real life experiences.
26. What was the unexpected result of the author’s method?
A. Students asked the head teacher to extend library hours.
B. Students donated money to buy more memorable objects.
C. Students produced higher scores in entrance examinations.
D. Students built a reading community through recommendations.
27. Which best describes the author as a librarian?
A. Considerate. B. Demanding. C. Innovative. D. Traditional.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍身为学校图书管理员的作者利用小物件辅助阅读教学,改变学生对阅读的固有认知,搭建书本与现实生活之间的联系。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“As a school librarian, I spend a lot of my day quietly arguing with ideas my students have already accepted. Many of them walk into the library believing that reading is a silent chore, that stories are locked inside books, and that both have little to do with their real lives — soccer fields, group chats, kitchens, bus rides, or the music in their headphones.(作为一名学校图书管理员,我每天花大量时间默默纠正学生已经形成的固有想法。许多学生走进图书馆时认为阅读是一项枯燥的任务,故事被锁在书本里,并且这些内容和他们的现实生活几乎无关——足球场、群聊、厨房、公交旅途或是耳机里的音乐。)”可知,作者面临的最大挑战是学生对于阅读的固有观念。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I have found that if I place an ordinary object beside a book, students begin to see reading not as a task to finish, but as a way of noticing how life works.(我发现如果在书本旁放一件普通物件,学生会不再把阅读看作需要完成的任务,而是理解生活运转方式的途径。)”可知,作者搭配小物件和书本,目的是帮助学生在书本和真实生活经历之间建立联系。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But an unexpected thing happened. Students began leaving objects on my desk with sticky notes — a metro card, a grocery list, a keychain from a trip — and asking, “Can we read something around this?” Before long, a tenth grader was recommending novels to an eighth grader, and two boys who had never borrowed books became the unofficial curators (馆长) of our “small objects” shelf. (但一件意想不到的事情发生了。学生们开始把带有便利贴的物件放在我的桌上——一张地铁卡、一份购物清单、旅行带回的钥匙扣,并问:“我们可以围绕这个读点东西吗?”不久之后,一名十年级学生给八年级学生推荐小说,两名从不借书的男生成了我们“小物件”书架的非正式管理员。)”可知,该方法带来的意外收获是学生通过互相推荐,形成了阅读社群。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“What began as a trick is now closer to a belief. While planning lessons, I still ask myself, “What can students touch, question, or connect to?” Doing this energizes our sessions, makes abstract ideas such as theme, evidence, and perspective visible, and shows students that stories are not separate from reality.(一开始只是一个小方法,如今几乎成为一种信念。备课时我总会问自己:“什么东西是学生能够触摸、质疑或者产生联结的?”这样做让阅读课充满活力,让主题、论据、视角这类抽象概念变得直观,让学生明白故事并不脱离现实。)”可知,作者创新阅读教学方式,是富有创新精神的图书管理员。
C
Is a museum visit still a visit if you never leave your room? Architect Sofia Marín says she likes to "get lost" inside a gallery for an hour, because space, light and silence are part of the artwork. Travel vlogger Ken Ji argues that a 15-minute virtual tour lets him "see the world's greatest treasures before lunch." Their argument in an advertisement for a virtual-reality platform went viral (疯传) earlier this year, criticized for suggesting that slow, physical museum-going is outdated. The debate reflects a larger shift in how people experience culture.
Surveys point in the same direction. One survey found that 44% of visitors aged 18 — 30 had used online exhibitions, VR tours or livestreamed gallery walks before — or instead of — going to a real museum, compared with only 13% of people over 50. To meet this demand, many museums and apps now provide 360-degree rooms, automatic guides, “masterpiece-only” routes and high-definition scans.
The attraction is easy to understand: digital visits save time and money. No flights, no queues, no closed galleries. A platform once claimed that its users together saved more than 3 million hours of travel in a year. For students, office workers and families with young children, such convenience feels irresistible.
But does easier viewing mean fuller understanding? Education researcher Dr. Paula Chen says virtual tours can teach facts effectively: names, dates, styles and stories. Yet a recent study found that one week later, screen-only viewers remembered fewer details about the size, direction and atmosphere of a work; more importantly, they reported less emotional connection. A painting seen as a small glowing image is no longer experienced as an object in space.
The change has also produced disagreement. Museums welcome larger audiences and online donations, but many curators and artists warn that art is not only information. A huge fresco was painted to be looked up at; a sculpture was shaped to be walked around; a quiet room was designed to slow the heartbeat. Imagine seeing the Sistine Chapel ceiling (西斯廷教堂天顶画) only through a phone screen — its scale, distance and pressure on the viewer largely disappear.
Still, for many people, the cloud gallery has become part of cultural life. For them, the real question is no longer whether to click, but what disappears when everything is only one swipe (滑动) away.
28. What can be learned about the debate from paragraph 1?
A. It shows people’s changing ways of enjoying culture.
B. It centers on whether VR ads should be spread online.
C. It proves physical museum visits have become outdated.
D. It arises from disagreement over the value of space in galleries.
29. Why did many museums and apps develop virtual tours?
A. To reduce the cost of running real museums.
B. To improve the quality of offline art exhibitions.
C. To satisfy people’s need for online art experiences.
D. To attract more young visitors to physical galleries.
30. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Sistine Chapel ceiling?
A. To show the great artistic value of the famous fresco.
B. To recommend visitors admire it through phone screens.
C. To suggest modern visitors now lack patience for real art.
D. To prove virtual tours cannot fully deliver art's real power.
31. What is a suitable title for this text?
A. Easier viewing, less feeling B. More choices, less certainty
C. The need for virtual museums D. The argument over an advertisement
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】文章围绕“足不出户的云观展”现象,讨论虚拟游览的便利与吸引力,同时借助研究结果指出其情感联结与体验完整性上的不足,引发人们对文化体验方式的思考。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。第一段由建筑师Sofia Marín钟情实地看展与旅行博主Ken Ji推崇15分钟虚拟导览的分歧引出争论,并点明“The debate reflects a larger shift in how people experience culture(这场争论折射出人们体验文化方式上的一场更大转变)”,可知这场争论显示出人们享受文化方式的变化。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One survey found that 44% of visitors aged 18 — 30 had used online exhibitions, VR tours or livestreamed gallery walks before — or instead of — going to a real museum, compared with only 13% of people over 50. To meet this demand, many museums and apps now provide 360-degree rooms, automatic guides, “masterpiece-only” routes and high-definition scans.(一项调查发现,在 18 至 30 岁的访客中,有 44% 的人曾使用线上展览、VR 虚拟游览或是美术馆直播导览,以此作为实体博物馆参观的补充,或是直接替代实地参观;而 50 岁以上人群的这一比例仅为 13%。为满足这一需求,如今许多博物馆和相关应用都推出了 360° 全景展厅、自动讲解、“精品名作专属” 参观路线以及高清扫描藏品资源。)”可知,博物馆和应用程序开发虚拟游览是为了满足人们对线上艺术体验日益增长的需求。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“The change has also produced disagreement. Museums welcome larger audiences and online donations, but many curators and artists warn that art is not only information. A huge fresco was painted to be looked up at; a sculpture was shaped to be walked around; a quiet room was designed to slow the heartbeat. Imagine seeing the Sistine Chapel ceiling (西斯廷教堂天顶画) only through a phone screen — its scale, distance and pressure on the viewer largely disappear.(这种转变也引发了分歧。博物馆乐于迎来更多观众、收获线上捐款,但许多策展人和艺术家提醒:艺术并不仅仅是信息。一幅巨型湿壁画,本是供人抬头仰望的;一尊雕塑,本是让人绕圈观赏的;一间静谧的展厅,设计初衷就是让观者静下心来、放缓心绪。试想只通过手机屏幕欣赏西斯廷教堂天顶画 —— 它的宏大尺度、观赏距离,以及带给观者的那种震撼感,大多都会荡然无存)可知,作者举例意在证明虚拟游览无法完全传递艺术的真正力量。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章围绕“云观展”展开:虚拟参观省时省钱、需求旺盛,但研究表明屏幕观看者记住的细节更少、情感联结更弱,艺术也不只是信息;第四段以“But does easier viewing mean fuller understanding?(但是,观看变得更容易,就意味着理解得更透彻吗?)”点题,末段追问“当一切只需一滑之遥,消失的是什么”。A项“观看更容易,感受更少了”最能概括全文。
D
What if the batteries of tomorrow were peeled (剥离) from daily seafood waste instead of dug out of scarce mineral mines? In a university materials lab, researchers are exploring an eco-friendly solution: high-performance batteries with core components made from chitin (甲壳素), a natural and renewable substance abundant in crab and shrimp shells that are usually thrown away as garbage.
When shells are cleaned and treated, chitin can be changed into chitosan, which forms a soft gel (凝胶). In the battery, this gel works like a tiny “traffic gate”: its small pores (孔隙) capture zinc ions when the battery charges and release them when it powers a device, while the gel itself keeps the two electrodes (电极) from touching. Unlike the liquid inside many common batteries, the gel is less likely to leak or catch fire.
To test the idea, the team made coin-sized batteries with the chitosan gel. The results were encouraging: after hundreds of charging cycles, the batteries still kept most of their capacity, even after being bent many times, they continued to work. Still, their performance dropped noticeably under cold conditions, a challenge researchers are working to overcome.
Traditional batteries often depend on rare metals and chemical solvents that are expensive to mine and difficult to deal with. Shell-based gels, however, can be made from seafood waste, are less flammable, and can bend into shapes suitable for wearable sensors, soft robots and medical patches. Most importantly, the gel component can break down naturally over time, bringing much lower environmental pressure than plastic and electronic waste.
“You do not need a mine to begin,” said Dr. Lena Park, the project’s lead researcher. “A bucket of shells, some vinegar and a simple lab bench are enough for the first steps.” A tangible real-world application may lie ahead. In the not too distant future, flexible devices may be powered by material that once protected a crab — and after it finishes its job, its gel parts may quickly return to the earth.
32. What is one major strength of the chitosan-gel battery?
A. It needs no charging cycles.
B. It has larger storage capacity.
C. It avoids potential safety risks.
D. It charges faster in cold weather.
33. What is the author’s attitude toward the chitosan-gel battery?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Unconcerned.
34. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that ______.
A. Traditional batteries cause serious waste pollution
B. New batteries have unique environmental benefits
C. New flexible devices greatly reduce electronic waste
D. Seafood waste is widely used in high-tech equipment
35. What does the underlined word “tangible” in the last paragraph mean?
A. temporary. B. theoretical. C. abstract. D. achievable.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍以虾蟹壳中的甲壳素制成凝胶电池的优势、不足与应用前景。
【32题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Unlike the liquid inside many common batteries, the gel is less likely to leak or catch fire.(与许多普通电池内部的液体不同,这种凝胶不易泄漏或起火。)”可知,提到了壳聚糖凝胶电池的优点,根据第三段“Still, their performance dropped noticeably under cold conditions, a challenge researchers are working to overcome.(不过,它们在低温环境下性能会明显下降,研究人员正在努力攻克这一难题。)”可知,客观陈述优势与现存缺点,不带个人褒贬。所以作者的态度是客观的。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Shell-based gels, however, can be made from seafood waste, are less flammable, and can bend into shapes suitable for wearable sensors, soft robots and medical patches. Most importantly, the gel component can break down naturally over time, bringing much lower environmental pressure than plastic and electronic waste.(然而,以虾蟹壳为原料的凝胶可以由海产品废料制成,不易燃,还可以弯折成适合可穿戴传感器、软体机器人和医用贴片的形状。最重要的是,凝胶成分可以随时间自然降解,带来的环境压力远小于塑料和电子垃圾。)” 可知,这种新型电池具备独特的环保优势。
【35题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段“A tangible real-world application may lie ahead. In the not too distant future, flexible devices may be powered by material that once protected a crab...(一项tangible的实际应用或许就在眼前。在不远的将来,柔性设备可以用曾经保护螃蟹的材料供电……)”,结合后文不远的未来有望投入使用,可推测tangible意为“可实现的”。与achievable(可实现的)同义。

【36题详解】
前文“Make time for training. This point may sound self-evident, yet it poses a real challenge to numerous new runners. Running takes time, and time is usually limited, especially for busy moms and dads.(腾出时间训练。这一点听起来不言而喻,但对许多新手跑者来说却是实实在在的挑战。跑步需要时间,而时间通常很有限,对于忙碌的父母而言尤其如此。)”提到对于忙碌的父母来说,很难抽出时间跑步,后文 “If early mornings fit your schedule perfectly, do it then. If you are comfortable taking your baby along, late morning can also serve as a desirable option.(如果清晨完全适合你的时间安排,那就晨跑。如果你方便带着宝宝一起,上午晚些时候也是一个不错的选择。)” 举例说明可以挑选适配自己日程的跑步时间。由此可知,空格承接上文时间紧张的困境,建议坚持固定时长的跑步。G项“尽管如此,坚持每周4天、每天至少跑步20分钟” 符合。
【37题详解】
前文“Don’t mind the weather.(不要在意天气。)”为本段主旨句,后文 “Living in New England, we lack year-round ideal weather for outdoor workouts. Nevertheless, running amid rain or even snow can turn out to be a thrilling experience. You’ll need to invest in some basic bad weather gear if you want to have a try. Never allow low temperatures or gloomy, threatening skies to hold you back from running. Just embrace it.(我们住在新英格兰,这里没有全年都适合户外锻炼的理想天气。不过,在雨中甚至雪中跑步会是一场激动人心的体验。如果你打算尝试,需要购置一些基础的恶劣天气跑步装备。不要让低温或者阴沉可怕的天空阻碍你跑步,只管接纳它。)”讲述不必惧怕坏天气,要接纳在恶劣天气跑步。A项“面对它” 承接主旨,引出下文。
【38题详解】
空格是本段的主题句,后文“Working toward completing your first race can keep you motivated. You don't have to think about competing, just completing. And, you’ll meet lots of other runners and enjoy the friendship and post race festivities. Races are fun!(努力完成你的第一场比赛能够让你保持动力。你不必想着去争夺名次,只需要完成比赛就好。而且,你会遇见很多其他跑者,感受友谊,享受赛后庆祝活动。比赛十分有趣!)”围绕参加跑步比赛展开,说明赛事可以给跑步提供动力。B项“为参赛而跑”概括本段内容。
【39题详解】
前文“Races are fun!(比赛十分有趣!)”提到跑步比赛很有意思,后文“ The website https://coolrunning.com is a reliable platform to hunt for local races. Begin with a 5-mile run and download a customized training programme to help you reach your target.(网站//coolrunning.com是查找本地赛事的可靠平台。从 5 英里跑起步,下载定制的训练计划帮助你达成目标。)”介绍可以借助网站查找本地赛事、制定训练方案。由此可知,空格处表达上网搜寻赛事、设立目标。 E项“上网查找你所在地区即将举办的赛事并设定目标” 承上启下。
【40题详解】
前文“It can clarify your thoughts and spark your most creative insights.(跑步可以理清你的思绪,激发你最具创造性的想法。) 提到跑步对思想的益处,后文“You get to listen to birds chirping, breathe in the fragrance of blooming flowers and develop brand new bonds with others. Another source of motivation is running for charity. When you train for a charitable cause, your running acquires profound inner significance.(你可以聆听鸟鸣,吸入盛放花朵的芬芳,和他人建立全新的联结。另一种动力来源是公益跑。当你为慈善事业训练时,你的跑步会拥有深刻的内在意义。)”描述跑步时感受周围世界,结识他人。C项“跑步为你打开周遭的世界”承上启下,说明跑步的益处。

67. 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。
It was a rainy Tuesday afternoon. Emma, a college student, was waiting for the subway when she noticed a boy sitting alone on a bench, his head buried in his hands. His shoulders trembled slightly, and a schoolbag lay forgotten at his feet. The rain outside the station window seemed to echo his mood.
Emma hesitated. She was not the kind of person who usually approached strangers. But something about the boy reminded her of herself three years ago — sitting in a hospital corridor, staring at the pale green walls, waiting for news about her own mother. She took a deep breath and walked over.
“Are you okay?” she asked softly, sitting down beside him. The boy looked up, his eyes red and swollen. He blinked, as if trying to hold back tears. “My mom is in the hospital,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “She has been there for two weeks. The doctors say she needs an operation, but... but I'm scared." His voice broke, and he buried his face in his hands again.
Emma’s heart ached. She knew that fear all too well. Three years ago, her own mother had faced a serious operation. Emma had spent those days in constant worry, unable to eat or sleep, staring at the hospital ceiling and counting the hours. But her mother had survived — and so had Emma. She reached out and gently placed her hand on the boy's shoulder. “I know how you feel,” she said quietly. “My mom went through something similar three years ago. I was exactly where you are now — scared, helpless, and alone.”
The boy looked up at her, a flicker of hope in his eyes. “Really? Did she... did she make it?” Emma smiled softly. “She did. And she’s healthy now.” She paused, watching the boy’s face relax just a little. "The fear you’re feeling right now — it’s the hardest part. But you don't have to go through it alone.” The boy wiped his eyes and managed a weak smile. “I’m Leo,” he said. “I’m Emma,” she replied. "How about we get some hot chocolate, and you tell me more about your mom?”
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。
Over a cup of hot chocolate, Leo slowly opened up about his mother.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A month later, Emma received a photo on her phone.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】【参考范文】
Paragraph 1: Over a cup of hot chocolate, Leo slowly opened up about his mother. She was a single parent working double shifts to support him. She had ignored her illness for months until she collapsed at work. Doctors found a tumor needing urgent surgery. “She never complains, ...” Leo said, his voice trembling. Emma listened quietly, then shared her own story — her mother’s risky operation, the days of praying, the slow recovery. “The waiting is the hardest part,“ she said gently. “But you can do something for her — something that shows her how much you love her.“ Leo nodded slowly, a spark of determination in his eyes. “I will,” he said softly.
Paragraph 2: A month later, Emma received a photo on her phone. It was Leo, standing beside his mother, who was sitting up in a hospital bed, smiling warmly. Behind them, taped to the wall, was a large handmade card covered with colorful drawings and messages. Below it, in smaller handwriting, were the words: “Thank you, Emma.” Emma smiled, her eyes stinging with tears. She typed a reply: “I’m so proud of you, Leo. Give your mom a big hug for me.” As she pressed send, she realized that helping Leo had helped her too — fear could be faced, and hope, once shared, grows stronger.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了大学生 Emma 在雨天地铁站发现独自难过的男孩 Leo。得知 Leo的母亲住院需要手术,Leo内心充满恐惧。Emma联想到三年前自己母亲手术时的经历,共情安慰Leo,并提议一起喝热巧克力,听他讲讲妈妈的故事。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“喝着一杯热巧克力,利奥慢慢开口说起了他妈妈的事。” 可知,第一段可描写Leo讲述妈妈的情况,Emma分享自身相似经历,鼓励Leo,Leo重新燃起决心。
②由第二段首句内容“一个月之后,艾玛在手机上收到了一张照片。”可知,第二段可描写照片内容:Leo和术后好转的妈妈,附带感谢卡片;Emma收到照片内心感动,感悟分享希望可以战胜恐惧。
2. 续写线索:喝热巧谈心→倾诉困境→共情鼓励→收到照片→看见母子→感悟成长
3. 词汇激活

As a school librarian, I spend a lot of my day quietly arguing with ideas my students have already accepted. Many of them walk into the library believing that reading is a silent chore, that stories are locked inside books, and that both have little to do with their real lives — soccer fields, group chats, kitchens, bus rides, or the music in their headphones. I have found that if I place an ordinary object beside a book, students begin to see reading not as a task to finish, but as a way of noticing how life works.
No matter what class comes through the door, I try to give them one small object to hold before we open the pages. For example, when a seventh-grade class reads a memoir about migration, I put a bent bus ticket, a seed packet, and a screenshot of a family playlist on the table. The ticket leads us to questions about distance and choice; the seed packet opens a discussion about roots and growth; the playlist reminds us that memory often arrives with sound attached. Students who first complained that the book was “too slow” suddenly start arguing about which detail matters most.
When I first used these objects, my goal was simple: wake the room up. But an unexpected thing happened. Students began leaving objects on my desk with sticky notes — a metro card, a grocery list, a keychain from a trip — and asking, “Can we read something around this?” Before long, a tenth grader was recommending novels to an eighth grader, and two boys who had never borrowed books became the unofficial curators (馆长) of our “small objects” shelf. The library stopped feeling like a room of rules and started feeling like a place where observations were traded.
What began as a trick is now closer to a belief. While planning lessons, I still ask myself, “What can students touch, question, or connect to?” Doing this energizes our sessions, makes abstract ideas such as theme, evidence, and perspective visible, and shows students that stories are not separate from reality. Best of all, when they see me getting excited about a bus ticket or a seed packet, they become more willing to believe that their own ordinary lives are worth reading — and writing — about.
24. What is the biggest challenge for the author as a librarian?
A. Students’ fixed ideas about reading.
B. Students’ distrust of librarians’ taste.
C. The unsatisfactory condition of the library.
D. The weak link between books and hobbies.
25. Why does the author use small objects together with books?
A. To collect students’ personal belongings for library displays.
B. To test students’ ability to tell different everyday objects apart.
C. To replace traditional reading tasks with hands-on object games.
D. To help students build links between books and real life experiences.
26. What was the unexpected result of the author’s method?
A. Students asked the head teacher to extend library hours.
B. Students donated money to buy more memorable objects.
C. Students produced higher scores in entrance examinations.
D. Students built a reading community through recommendations.
27. Which best describes the author as a librarian?
A. Considerate. B. Demanding. C. Innovative. D. Traditional.

Is a museum visit still a visit if you never leave your room? Architect Sofia Marín says she likes to "get lost" inside a gallery for an hour, because space, light and silence are part of the artwork. Travel vlogger Ken Ji argues that a 15-minute virtual tour lets him "see the world's greatest treasures before lunch." Their argument in an advertisement for a virtual-reality platform went viral (疯传) earlier this year, criticized for suggesting that slow, physical museum-going is outdated. The debate reflects a larger shift in how people experience culture.
Surveys point in the same direction. One survey found that 44% of visitors aged 18 — 30 had used online exhibitions, VR tours or livestreamed gallery walks before — or instead of — going to a real museum, compared with only 13% of people over 50. To meet this demand, many museums and apps now provide 360-degree rooms, automatic guides, “masterpiece-only” routes and high-definition scans.
The attraction is easy to understand: digital visits save time and money. No flights, no queues, no closed galleries. A platform once claimed that its users together saved more than 3 million hours of travel in a year. For students, office workers and families with young children, such convenience feels irresistible.
But does easier viewing mean fuller understanding? Education researcher Dr. Paula Chen says virtual tours can teach facts effectively: names, dates, styles and stories. Yet a recent study found that one week later, screen-only viewers remembered fewer details about the size, direction and atmosphere of a work; more importantly, they reported less emotional connection. A painting seen as a small glowing image is no longer experienced as an object in space.
The change has also produced disagreement. Museums welcome larger audiences and online donations, but many curators and artists warn that art is not only information. A huge fresco was painted to be looked up at; a sculpture was shaped to be walked around; a quiet room was designed to slow the heartbeat. Imagine seeing the Sistine Chapel ceiling (西斯廷教堂天顶画) only through a phone screen — its scale, distance and pressure on the viewer largely disappear.
Still, for many people, the cloud gallery has become part of cultural life. For them, the real question is no longer whether to click, but what disappears when everything is only one swipe (滑动) away.
28. What can be learned about the debate from paragraph 1?
A. It shows people’s changing ways of enjoying culture.
B. It centers on whether VR ads should be spread online.
C. It proves physical museum visits have become outdated.
D. It arises from disagreement over the value of space in galleries.
29. Why did many museums and apps develop virtual tours?
A. To reduce the cost of running real museums.
B. To improve the quality of offline art exhibitions.
C. To satisfy people’s need for online art experiences.
D. To attract more young visitors to physical galleries.
30. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Sistine Chapel ceiling?
A. To show the great artistic value of the famous fresco.
B. To recommend visitors admire it through phone screens.
C. To suggest modern visitors now lack patience for real art.
D. To prove virtual tours cannot fully deliver art's real power.
31. What is a suitable title for this text?
A. Easier viewing, less feeling B. More choices, less certainty
C. The need for virtual museums D. The argument over an advertisement
D
What if the batteries of tomorrow were peeled (剥离) from daily seafood waste instead of dug out of scarce mineral mines? In a university materials lab, researchers are exploring an eco-friendly solution: high-performance batteries with core components made from chitin (甲壳素), a natural and renewable substance abundant in crab and shrimp shells that are usually thrown away as garbage.
When shells are cleaned and treated, chitin can be changed into chitosan, which forms a soft gel (凝胶). In the battery, this gel works like a tiny “traffic gate”: its small pores (孔隙) capture zinc ions when the battery charges and release them when it powers a device, while the gel itself keeps the two electrodes (电极) from touching. Unlike the liquid inside many common batteries, the gel is less likely to leak or catch fire.
To test the idea, the team made coin-sized batteries with the chitosan gel. The results were encouraging: after hundreds of charging cycles, the batteries still kept most of their capacity, even after being bent many times, they continued to work. Still, their performance dropped noticeably under cold conditions, a challenge researchers are working to overcome.
Traditional batteries often depend on rare metals and chemical solvents that are expensive to mine and difficult to deal with. Shell-based gels, however, can be made from seafood waste, are less flammable, and can bend into shapes suitable for wearable sensors, soft robots and medical patches. Most importantly, the gel component can break down naturally over time, bringing much lower environmental pressure than plastic and electronic waste.
“You do not need a mine to begin,” said Dr. Lena Park, the project’s lead researcher. “A bucket of shells, some vinegar and a simple lab bench are enough for the first steps.” A tangible real-world application may lie ahead. In the not too distant future, flexible devices may be powered by material that once protected a crab — and after it finishes its job, its gel parts may quickly return to the earth.
32. What is one major strength of the chitosan-gel battery?
A. It needs no charging cycles.
B. It has larger storage capacity.
C. It avoids potential safety risks.
D. It charges faster in cold weather.
33. What is the author’s attitude toward the chitosan-gel battery?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Unconcerned.
34. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that ______.
A. Traditional batteries cause serious waste pollution
B. New batteries have unique environmental benefits
C. New flexible devices greatly reduce electronic waste
D. Seafood waste is widely used in high-tech equipment
35. What does the underlined word “tangible” in the last paragraph mean?
A. temporary. B. theoretical. C. abstract. D. achievable.

67. 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。
It was a rainy Tuesday afternoon. Emma, a college student, was waiting for the subway when she noticed a boy sitting alone on a bench, his head buried in his hands. His shoulders trembled slightly, and a schoolbag lay forgotten at his feet. The rain outside the station window seemed to echo his mood.
Emma hesitated. She was not the kind of person who usually approached strangers. But something about the boy reminded her of herself three years ago — sitting in a hospital corridor, staring at the pale green walls, waiting for news about her own mother. She took a deep breath and walked over.
“Are you okay?” she asked softly, sitting down beside him. The boy looked up, his eyes red and swollen. He blinked, as if trying to hold back tears. “My mom is in the hospital,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “She has been there for two weeks. The doctors say she needs an operation, but... but I'm scared." His voice broke, and he buried his face in his hands again.
Emma’s heart ached. She knew that fear all too well. Three years ago, her own mother had faced a serious operation. Emma had spent those days in constant worry, unable to eat or sleep, staring at the hospital ceiling and counting the hours. But her mother had survived — and so had Emma. She reached out and gently placed her hand on the boy's shoulder. “I know how you feel,” she said quietly. “My mom went through something similar three years ago. I was exactly where you are now — scared, helpless, and alone.”
The boy looked up at her, a flicker of hope in his eyes. “Really? Did she... did she make it?” Emma smiled softly. “She did. And she’s healthy now.” She paused, watching the boy’s face relax just a little. "The fear you’re feeling right now — it’s the hardest part. But you don't have to go through it alone.” The boy wiped his eyes and managed a weak smile. “I’m Leo,” he said. “I’m Emma,” she replied. "How about we get some hot chocolate, and you tell me more about your mom?”
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。
Over a cup of hot chocolate, Leo slowly opened up about his mother.
