They can make a roof with their hands over their heads when they want to show “house”. Pointing to an actor’s mouth can mean “Quiet”. You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.

(本题7.5分)Top Three Films for Medical Professionals
This list of films is specifically tailored for doctors and medical students. Whether you’re looking for motivation, a reflection of your own experiences, or simply a cinematic journey through the world of medicine, these films are a must-watch.
Patch Adams
This film, whose key advantage is an adaptation from a real story, tells the biography of Hunter “Patch” Adams, a doctor who believes in treating patients with humour and sympathy, highlighting the importance of human connection in medicine. The real Patch Adams was involved in the film’s production, and Robin Williams’ performance was inspired by Adams’ own personality and methods.
Something the Lord Made
This HBO film tells the partnership between Dr. Alfred Blalock and Vivien Thomas, who cooperated to develop pioneering and innovative heart surgery techniques, stressing the often ignored contributions of African American medical professionals like them. Despite its common plot, the film was based on an article in the Washingtonian magazine, and it received widespread praise for its presentation of medical history, making people forget the passage of time.
Wit
A professor of English literature with terminal (晚期的) cancer reflects on her life and treatment, offering a profound exploration of the human condition and the impersonal nature of modern medicine. Emma Thompson won an Emmy for her role as Vivian Bearing, delivering a deeply moving performance.

【导语】本文主要为医务工作者推荐了三部经典影片,分别介绍影片原型故事、核心内容与特色,展现医疗行业温情、科研合作与医疗人文反思。
【详解】21.细节理解题。根据Patch Adams部分“This film, whose key advantage is an adaptation from a real story, tells the biography of Hunter “Patch” Adams, a doctor who believes in treating patients with humour and sympathy, highlighting the importance of human connection in medicine.(这部影片的主要优势是改编自真实故事,讲述了亨特·帕奇·亚当斯的生平,这位医生主张用幽默与同情心医治病人,凸显医疗中人际关怀的重要性)”可知,这部电影的主要优势是改编自真实故事。
22.细节理解题。根据Something the Lord Made部分“Despite its common plot, the film was based on an article in the Washingtonian magazine, and it received widespread praise for its presentation of medical history, making people forget the passage of time.(尽管情节平实,这部影片取材于杂志文章,因其对医学历史的精彩呈现收获广泛赞誉,让人沉浸其中)”可知,尽管该电影情节普通,但是它因对医学历史的精彩呈现而受到了广泛赞誉。
23.细节理解题。根据Wit部分“A professor of English literature with terminal cancer reflects on her life and treatment, offering a profound exploration of the human condition and the impersonal nature of modern medicine.(一位癌症晚期的英语文学教授回望人生与治疗过程,深刻探讨人性以及现代医疗冰冷缺乏人情味的现状)”可知,影片指出现代医疗缺少人文关怀。
(本题10分)In a quiet hillside village on the outskirts of Qingdao, Shandong province, an unlikely group of actors has turned everyday rural life into a hot topic online.
Last September, more than 20 villagers from Beiliangjia village in the Qingdao West Coast New Area, none with any previous acting experience, gathered to film a micro-drama series — using nothing more than a smartphone.
Within two weeks of its launch on Chinese social media platforms, the series received more than 250 million views. The figure eventually climbed to 370 million and made it into the top three of trending dramas on the short-video platform Douyin.
Titled Hua Kai Shi Shang — literally Blooming on the Rocks — the series centers on a young woman who marries into a struggling household that includes three unmarried brothers. Through resilience and ingenuity, she gradually helps the family overcome hardship to build a happier life.
The micro-drama series was initially aimed at helping the village sell local produce, such as chestnuts and sweet potatoes. Ding Zhaoting, a local who has experience developing social media accounts and livestream sales for farmers, realized that a typical promotional account might struggle to gain traction (关注) in a village with mostly older residents. Instead, he proposed telling rural stories with the villagers playing themselves.
The sudden popularity also put Beiliangjia on the map. Viewers flooded online comment sections, asking where they could buy the chestnuts, wild mushrooms and other produce featured in the series.
According to Zhang, the village Party chief, from September to December last year, the village’s collective income rose by about 500,000 yuan ($72,000). A new vermicelli processing workshop has since opened and secured orders worth 50,000 yuan.
So far, the unexpected success of Beiliangjia village’s micro-dramas has made it home to some 1,200 film and television companies. The model of using the productions to promote rural products is also spreading to more villages across the district.
24.(2.5分)What do we know about Hua Kai Shi Shang?
A.It was professionally filmed. B.It features mainly elderly villagers.
C.It tells a story of rising from poverty. D.It originated from an online hot topic.
25.(2.5分)Why was the micro-drama series originally filmed?
A.To promote the village. B.To entertain viewers across the country.
C.To enrich the villagers’ daily life. D.To help sell the village’s local products.
26.(2.5分)What impact did the micro-drama series bring to the village?
A.It attracted tourists to the village. B.It boosted the village’s economy and fame.
C.It encouraged young people to return. D.It provided jobs for some elderly residents.
27.(2.5分)What does the success of Beiliangjia village imply?
A.Smartphones reshape rural life. B.Short dramas drive rural vitalization.
C.Local creativity sells village products. D.Technology creates rural opportunities.
【答案】24.C 25.D 26.B 27.B

Through resilience and ingenuity, she gradually helps the family overcome hardship to build a happier life. (该剧名为《花开石上》——字面意思是“在岩石上绽放”——讲述了一位年轻女子嫁入一个包含三个未婚兄弟的贫困家庭的经历。通过坚韧和机智,她逐渐帮助这个家庭克服困难,建立更幸福的生活。)”可知,这部剧讲述了一个脱贫致富的故事。
25.细节理解题。根据第五段“The micro-drama series was initially aimed at helping the village sell local produce, such as chestnuts and sweet potatoes. (这部微短剧系列最初旨在帮助村庄销售当地农产品,如栗子和红薯。)”可知,拍摄微短剧最初是为了帮助销售村里的农产品。
26.细节理解题。根据第六段“The sudden popularity also put Beiliangjia on the map.

A new vermicelli processing workshop has since opened and secured orders worth 50,000 yuan. (据村党支部书记张介绍,从去年9月到12月,村集体收入增长了约50万元(7.2万美元)。此后,一家新的粉条加工厂开业并获得了价值5万元的订单。)”可知,微短剧提升了村庄的知名度和经济收入。
27.推理判断题。根据最后一段“So far, the unexpected success of Beiliangjia village’s micro-dramas has made it home to some 1,200 film and television companies. The model of using the productions to promote rural products is also spreading to more villages across the district. (到目前为止,北梁家村微短剧的意外成功使其成为约1200家影视公司的所在地。利用这些作品推广农村产品的模式也正在向该地区更多村庄推广。)”可知,短剧推动了乡村振兴。
(本题10分)If you’re fans of Disney movies and tired of waiting for the follow-up to Frozen or Star Wars, there might soon be a new way to enjoy these story worlds. Disney is exploring this possibility, allowing fans to be not just viewers, but also creators. Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, recently has pointed out that while it’s still in the early period, the future is not too far.
Iger says that the company aims to make Disney more interactive (互动的). This means that fans won’t always have to wait for new official movies — they can make their own creations based on Disney’s stories through user-friendly AI tools instead.
Disney isn’t alone in this new change. Many other big companies are also trying to rethink the connections with audiences. Netflix, for example, plans to introduce AI tools to vote (投票) on a talent show next year. Viewers will be able to affect the show’s results directly through their mobile phones, making the viewing experience more interactive and dynamic. At the same time, although there are a few disputes and concerns, some companies are increasingly open to allowing AI companies to use their content (内容). One of the examples is the partnership between Universal Music Group and the AI music creation platform Udio.
Young audiences, especially teenagers, are driving this change. Recent studies show that many young people prefer social media content to traditional TV shows and movies because they hope for taking part in more activities and creating something new, rather than only watching finished products.
“It shows that the AI companies can work with the creative community to come up with models that work for both of them,” Copyright Alliance CEO Keith Kupferschmid told NPR, “And I think we’re going to start seeing more and more deals come through because they realize they can do this and do it the right way.”
28.(2.5分)What is Disney’s purpose in using AI?
A.To develop new AI tools.
B.To carry out an experiment.
C.To take in more volunteers.
D.To make Disney interactive.
29.(2.5分)How will Netflix use AI tools?
A.By making creative movies.
B.By offering free music creation.
C.By allowing viewers to vote online.
D.By creating new famous characters.
30.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “disputes” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Results. B.Tools.
C.Disagreements. D.Plans.
31.(2.5分)What do young people prefer according to recent studies?
A.Enjoying TV shows.
B.Creating something new.
C.Seeing traditional films.
D.Watching finished products.
【答案】28.D 29.C 30.C 31.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍迪士尼等大公司正探索利用AI增强与观众的互动,允许粉丝参与创作,这一变化由年轻观众推动且前景良好。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Iger says that the company aims to make Disney more interactive (互动的). This means that fans won’t always have to wait for new official movies — they can make their own creations based on Disney’s stories through user-friendly AI tools instead.(艾格说,公司的目标是让迪士尼更具互动性。这意味着粉丝们不必总是等待新的官方电影——相反,他们可以通过用户友好的人工智能工具,基于迪士尼的故事进行自己的创作)”可知,迪士尼使用人工智能的目的是让迪士尼更具互动性。故选D项。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Netflix, for example, plans to introduce AI tools to vote (投票) on a talent show next year. Viewers will be able to affect the show’s results directly through their mobile phones, making the viewing experience more interactive and dynamic.(例如,网飞计划明年引入人工智能工具,在一场选秀节目中进行投票。观众将能够通过手机直接影响节目的结果,使观看体验更具互动性和动态性)”可知,网飞将利用人工智能工具让观众在线投票。故选C项。
30.词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“At the same time, although there are a few disputes and concerns, some companies are increasingly open to allowing AI companies to use their content (内容).(与此同时,尽管存在一些 disputes和担忧,但一些公司对允许人工智能公司使用其内容越来越开放)”可知,disputes与concerns(担忧)并列,且语义相近,结合选项可推测,其意为“争议、分歧”,与disagreements意思相近。故选C项。
31.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Recent studies show that many young people prefer social media content to traditional TV shows and movies because they hope for taking part in more activities and creating something new, rather than only watching finished products.(最近的研究表明,许多年轻人更喜欢社交媒体内容,而不是传统的电视节目和电影,因为他们希望参与更多的活动,创造新的东西,而不仅仅是观看成品)”可知,根据最近的研究,年轻人更喜欢创造新的东西。故选B项。
(本题10分)Using dozens of cameras set up throughout Sweden’s big forests, weeks-long live broadcasts of deer and other wild animals have caught Swedish audiences’ hearts. As three deer nervously come to a lake on screen, comments on the live TV program flood in. “Go on!”; “Jump in!”; “They’re beautiful!” The program Den stora älgvandringen has attracted a large community that watches and comments on the animals’ every move.
Den stora älgvandringen is another example of the so-called “slow TV”, where things are just left to happen at their own pace. Broadcast for a few weeks each spring on TV and online, the video is recorded in real time from a control room lined with screens. Teams work day and night to offer different viewpoints from 30 cameras, some of which can be controlled from a distance. “We can’t decide what happens. We don’t want everything to be perfect. I mean that this is nature and anything can happen. And we really want to show what it is like,” producer Johan Erhag said. “On all the social media, most things are very stressful. There’s a lot of music in programs. There’s a lot of speaking. But this program is the totally opposite way.”
A hunter in his spare time Persson said he enjoys the slow and natural pace of the show. “It’s kind of calming and also interesting. It’s basically wind blowing and you are waiting for something hopefully to show up. You might think that a day spent waiting would be a day lost but it’s not. Instead, it could be an activity that is quite healthy for more people,” Persson said.
“After watching the program, I find there are many things to look at and feel about nature,” Anders Lindberg, a columnist said. “The whole idea of sitting and watching nothing happening for hours in nature is wonderful. We can practice meditation (冥想), which I think for many people is something they lack in big cities. Nature could be a powerful tool used to bridge the gap between the mind and the body, making us feel close to the world around us.”
32.(2.5分)What is special about Den stora älgvandringen?
A.It features animals’ fun activities.
B.It follows wild animals’ life in a natural way.
C.It records animal experiments in natural settings.
D.It uses digital sound effects to impress the viewers.
33.(2.5分)What does Persson say about the program?
A.It teaches him to protect animals. B.It gives him a sense of achievement.
C.It brings him pleasure and relaxation. D.It causes him to pay attention to health.
34.(2.5分)How can the program benefit people according to Anders Lindberg?
A.By showing humans’ role in wildlife care. B.By raising their interest in outdoor activities.
C.By speeding up local tourism development. D.By encouraging a deeper connection with nature.
35.(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Rise of Slow TV in Sweden B.Why Swedes Love Watching Deer on TV
C.Finding Peace Through Nature on Screen D.Sweden’s Slow TV: A New Way to Watch Wildlife
【答案】32.B 33.C 34.D 35.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了瑞典一档实时记录野生动物生活的慢电视节目,以及观众对它的评价。
【详解】32.细节理解题。根据第一段中“The program Den stora älgvandringen has attracted a large community that watches and comments on the animals’ every move.(Den stora älgvandringen这个节目吸引了大量观众,他们观看并评论着动物们的一举一动)”和第二段中“Den stora älgvandringen is another example of the so-called “slow TV”, where things are just left to happen at their own pace.(Den stora älgvandringen是所谓的“慢电视”的又一范例,这种电视节目是按照事物自然发展的节奏进行拍摄的)”可知,该节目属于“慢电视”,以自然真实的节奏实时记录野生动物的生活,故选B。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段中““It’s kind of calming and also interesting. It’s basically wind blowing and you are waiting for something hopefully to show up. You might think that a day spent waiting would be a day lost but it’s not. Instead, it could be an activity that is quite healthy for more people,” Persson said.(“它既让人感到平静,又很有趣。基本上就是风声呼啸,而你则在等待着某种东西出现。你可能会认为花一天时间等待会是浪费了一天的时间,但其实并非如此。相反,这可能是一种对更多人来说非常有益的活动。” Persson说)”可知,Persson认为节目令人平静又有趣,享受这种缓慢自然的节奏,可知这个节目给他带来了快乐和放松,故选C。
34.细节理解题。根据最后一段““After watching the program, I find there are many things to look at and feel about nature,” Anders Lindberg, a columnist said. “The whole idea of sitting and watching nothing happening for hours in nature is wonderful. We can practice meditation (冥想), which I think for many people is something they lack in big cities. Nature could be a powerful tool used to bridge the gap between the mind and the body, making us feel close to the world around us.”(“看完这个节目后,我发现有很多东西可以观察和感受大自然的美妙之处。”专栏作家Anders Lindberg说道。“坐在大自然中一坐就是几个小时,什么都不做,这种想法真是太棒了。我们可以练习冥想,我认为这对很多人来说是他们在大城市中所缺乏的。大自然可以成为一种强大的工具,用来连接我们的思想和身体,让我们感觉与周围的世界更亲近。”)”可知,这个节目能让人接触自然,拉近人与身心、周围世界的联结,也就是帮助人和自然建立更深的联系,故选D。
35.主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第一段中“The program Den stora älgvandringen has attracted a large community that watches and comments on the animals’ every move.(Den stora älgvandringen这个节目吸引了大量观众,他们观看并评论着动物们的一举一动)”和第二段中“Den stora älgvandringen is another example of the so-called “slow TV”, where things are just left to happen at their own pace.(Den stora älgvandringen是所谓的“慢电视”的又一范例,这种电视节目是按照事物自然发展的节奏进行拍摄的)”可知,本文核心是介绍瑞典一档实时记录野生动物生活的慢电视节目,以及观众对它的评价。D项“瑞典的“慢电视”:一种观赏野生动物的新方式”准确概括了全文核心。故选D。
(本题12.5分)Journalism is the gathering, organizing, and distribution (发行) of news through the wide variety of print and non-print media channels. 36(2.5分) The earliest reference to a journalistic product comes from Rome circa 59 B.C., when news was recorded in a circular called the Acta Diurna.
It should come as no surprise that the earliest attempts to keep the public informed were met with government opposition in many cases. 37(2.5分) Because of this, along with the introduction of technology that improved printing and circulation (流通), newspaper publications saw their numbers explode.
38(2.5分) Its earliest form was such properly named periodicals (定期期刊) as the Tattler and Spectator. Both were initial attempts to marry articles of opinions with current events, and by the 1830s, magazines were common mass-circulated periodicals that appealed to a broader audience.
Time passed, and the cost of news gathering increased dramatically. Slowly, news agencies formed to replace independent publishers. However, the print media was soon about to face an entirely new form of news gathering — first, with the invention of the telegraph, then quickly followed by the radio, the television, and mass broadcasting. 39(2.5分)
Non-print media changed the dynamics of news gathering and reporting altogether. It sped up the whole process, making the news, itself, more timely and relevant. Soon, technology became an essential part of journalism, even if the ultimate product was in print form. Today, the Internet delivers breaking news to almost everyone globally at the same time. 40(2.5分) It will likely be the standard for the future.
A.Journalism has a lot to do with technology.
B.It is not a recent phenomenon, by any means.
C.This has created a new model of journalism once again.
D.Each breakthrough in communication reshaped news sharing.
E.But knowledge among the population, as a whole, was growing.
F.Magazines became widespread soon after newspapers appeared.
G.It was an evolution of technology that seemed all but unavoidable.
【答案】36.B 37.E 38.F 39.D 40.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了新闻业的发展历程,包括其起源、面临的政府反对、与技术的结合、不同媒体形式(如报纸、杂志、非印刷媒体)的出现及其对新闻传播的影响等。

【答案】
56.where 57.Running 58.had planned 59.to hold 60.donating 61.an 62.on/upon 63.selflessly 64.achievements 65.themselves
【导语】本文介绍电影《欢迎来龙餐馆》,讲述中国厨师徐福在中东战火小镇开设餐馆,坚守善良,为难民提供热饭,展现战乱中普通人之间温暖羁绊的故事。
【详解】56.考查定语从句。句意:中国厨师徐福开了一家当地小餐馆,许多无家可归的平民在这里能吃到热腾腾的家常菜。先行词restaurant表示地点,定语从句中不缺主语、宾语,需要作地点状语,用关系副词where。
57.考查非谓语动词。句意:经营这家餐馆、获得稳定收入是他最初的目标 —— 早在战争摧毁整个城镇之前。本句谓语动词是is,空格处作句子主语,动名词可以充当句子主语,run的动名词形式是running,句首首字母大写。
58.考查动词时态。句意:灾难来临时,他已经计划多年,想要攒够钱最终回到家乡。by the time + 一般过去时(the disaster struck),主句要用过去完成时,表示在灾难发生之前就已经完成的动作,结构为“had + 过去分词”。
59.考查非谓语动词。句意:他在国外结识的新朋友鼓励他,无论环境多么恶劣,都要坚守善良。固定搭配encourage sb. to do sth.意为“鼓励某人做某事”,不定式作宾语补足语。
60.考查非谓语动词。句意:在内心深处,徐福坚持给有需要的人捐赠食物物资,而不是只追求个人利益。固定搭配practise doing sth.意为“坚持/练习做某事”,后面接动名词作宾语。
61.考查冠词。句意:入口上方悬挂着一块刻有汉字的旧木牌,这块木牌见证了故事里许多感人瞬间。sign是可数名词单数,old是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an,表示“一块”。
62.考查介词。句意:所有员工都专注于这样一个信念:每一个普通人都值得被关爱和尊重。固定搭配focus on/upon意为“专注于”。
63.考查副词。句意:即使物资极度短缺,他们依旧无私地为每一位客人准备饭菜。此处修饰动词work,需要使用副词。
64.考查名词。句意:这是影片最动人的成就之一,展现艰难岁月里普通人之间形成的温暖纽带。固定结构“one of the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数”表示 “最……之一”,所以此处应用名词复数achievements。
65.考查反身代词。句意:走出影院后,大多数观众发现自己在反思和平的真正意义。固定结构find oneself doing sth.意为“发现某人自己正在做某事”;主语most viewers是第三人称复数,对应的反身代词是themselves。

【答案】Possible Version 1:
Dear Eric,
I am Li Hua. I’m writing to formally request that my video entry for the “Graduation Memories” short video contest be featured on our school’s media platform.
My video captures one ordinary day in our classroom preparing for the College Entrance Examination: classmates reviewing intensively together, sharing snacks during breaks, and writing encouraging messages to each other on the blackboard. It ends with all of us shouting, “We can make it!”
I believe this video deserves to be shown because it records the small, real moments of our final high school days — the nervousness, the determination and the silent support. Having already touched many classmates, it may comfort and motivate more students facing exam pressure.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours,
Li HuaPossible Version 2:
Dear Eric,
I am Li Hua, a creator of the video entered in the “Graduation Memories” contest. I am writing to apply for its display on the school’s media platform.
Unlike traditional videos, my work The Marks of Time focuses on daily items: worn-out test papers, scattered pens, and a school uniform covered with heartfelt signatures. Each object symbolizes our dedication and friendship.
I believe this unique visual narrative deserves to be shared. These common items are the collective footprints of every senior, which will undoubtedly evoke strong resonance and provide comfort during this bittersweet graduation season. Moreover, it offers a creative perspective on how to document life for the younger students.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours,
Li Hua

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)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。
Sunshine Valley High School prepared to celebrate its 100th birthday, and the drama club planned a special play for it.
Mrs. Collins, the librarian, told them there might be old scripts (剧本) in the library’s upper storage area. So on a cool November morning, several club members went to look. Among them were Mia, a junior who loved writing, Ethan, a senior who was good with cameras, and Lila, the club president who hoped to direct plays.
Mia reached for a dusty shelf. Suddenly, a loose page fell. It was a handwritten scene from a play called Starlight Dreams. Under the text was a note: “Act 2, Scene 3—Clara meets her future self under the oak tree (橡树), legs tired but eyes bright, determined to keep going even when the way forward gets hard to see…” It was signed by “Elena Marquez, 1972”. Mia saw a leather-bound notebook next to where the page had been and pulled it out—it was Elena’s diary.
They carefully opened the diary. One entry said, “July 5th, 1973. The doctor says I need to rest—no more late nights writing, no more rehearsals (排练). But I keep re-reading Clara’s lines: ‘You don’t stop just because the wind blows hard.’ Maybe one day, someone will finish what I started.” They realized Elena, a former student, had gotten very sick and left school, never finishing her script.
Mrs. Collins came over, surprised. “Elena was a very talented drama student. She had to leave school because of her illness and never came back. No one knew she left these here,” she said. The students felt sad for Elena. “We can finish her play for the school’s 100th birthday!” they all agreed.
For two weeks, they worked after school. Mia finished the script, still keeping Clara as the main character. Lila directed the actors in rehearsals, and Ethan made simple sets based on Elena’s notes. Mrs. Collins found Elena’s address from old yearbooks and invited her to watch the play.
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。
On the celebration day, the school hall was full of people.

Elena stood up and ran to the stage excitedly.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
On the celebration day, the school hall was full of people. The play started. Clara, the main character, faced many problems, but she didn’t give up. The audience watched carefully, their eyes fixed on the stage. When Clara stood under the oak tree in the end, saying “I’ll keep going, no matter how hard it gets,” everyone clapped hard. Suddenly, a voice shouted, “Good job!” It was Elena, sitting in the back row. Her eyes were shining with tears, and her hands were shaking. The applause got even louder as everyone turned to look at her.
Elena stood up and ran to the stage excitedly. “Thank you,” she said, voice shaking. “Those lines — ‘determined to keep going even when the way forward gets hard to see’ — are mine. I dreamed of acting in my own play, but the illness made me stop. I thought my story with Clara ended. However, you brought us both back.” She hugged each student, explaining her dreams revived. The students felt warm — they gave a forgotten dream a second chance, realizing small kindnesses bridge years, and that dreams, however long delayed, are always worth remembering.

(本题7.5分)Top Three Films for Medical Professionals
This list of films is specifically tailored for doctors and medical students. Whether you’re looking for motivation, a reflection of your own experiences, or simply a cinematic journey through the world of medicine, these films are a must-watch.
Patch Adams
This film, whose key advantage is an adaptation from a real story, tells the biography of Hunter “Patch” Adams, a doctor who believes in treating patients with humour and sympathy, highlighting the importance of human connection in medicine. The real Patch Adams was involved in the film’s production, and Robin Williams’ performance was inspired by Adams’ own personality and methods.
Something the Lord Made
This HBO film tells the partnership between Dr. Alfred Blalock and Vivien Thomas, who cooperated to develop pioneering and innovative heart surgery techniques, stressing the often ignored contributions of African American medical professionals like them. Despite its common plot, the film was based on an article in the Washingtonian magazine, and it received widespread praise for its presentation of medical history, making people forget the passage of time.
Wit
A professor of English literature with terminal (晚期的) cancer reflects on her life and treatment, offering a profound exploration of the human condition and the impersonal nature of modern medicine. Emma Thompson won an Emmy for her role as Vivian Bearing, delivering a deeply moving performance.

(本题10分)In a quiet hillside village on the outskirts of Qingdao, Shandong province, an unlikely group of actors has turned everyday rural life into a hot topic online.
Last September, more than 20 villagers from Beiliangjia village in the Qingdao West Coast New Area, none with any previous acting experience, gathered to film a micro-drama series — using nothing more than a smartphone.
Within two weeks of its launch on Chinese social media platforms, the series received more than 250 million views. The figure eventually climbed to 370 million and made it into the top three of trending dramas on the short-video platform Douyin.
Titled Hua Kai Shi Shang — literally Blooming on the Rocks — the series centers on a young woman who marries into a struggling household that includes three unmarried brothers. Through resilience and ingenuity, she gradually helps the family overcome hardship to build a happier life.
The micro-drama series was initially aimed at helping the village sell local produce, such as chestnuts and sweet potatoes. Ding Zhaoting, a local who has experience developing social media accounts and livestream sales for farmers, realized that a typical promotional account might struggle to gain traction (关注) in a village with mostly older residents. Instead, he proposed telling rural stories with the villagers playing themselves.
The sudden popularity also put Beiliangjia on the map. Viewers flooded online comment sections, asking where they could buy the chestnuts, wild mushrooms and other produce featured in the series.

(本题10分)If you’re fans of Disney movies and tired of waiting for the follow-up to Frozen or Star Wars, there might soon be a new way to enjoy these story worlds. Disney is exploring this possibility, allowing fans to be not just viewers, but also creators. Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, recently has pointed out that while it’s still in the early period, the future is not too far.
Iger says that the company aims to make Disney more interactive (互动的). This means that fans won’t always have to wait for new official movies — they can make their own creations based on Disney’s stories through user-friendly AI tools instead.
Disney isn’t alone in this new change. Many other big companies are also trying to rethink the connections with audiences. Netflix, for example, plans to introduce AI tools to vote (投票) on a talent show next year. Viewers will be able to affect the show’s results directly through their mobile phones, making the viewing experience more interactive and dynamic. At the same time, although there are a few disputes and concerns, some companies are increasingly open to allowing AI companies to use their content (内容). One of the examples is the partnership between Universal Music Group and the AI music creation platform Udio.
Young audiences, especially teenagers, are driving this change. Recent studies show that many young people prefer social media content to traditional TV shows and movies because they hope for taking part in more activities and creating something new, rather than only watching finished products.
“It shows that the AI companies can work with the creative community to come up with models that work for both of them,” Copyright Alliance CEO Keith Kupferschmid told NPR, “And I think we’re going to start seeing more and more deals come through because they realize they can do this and do it the right way.”
28.(2.5分)What is Disney’s purpose in using AI?
A.To develop new AI tools.
B.To carry out an experiment.
C.To take in more volunteers.
D.To make Disney interactive.
29.(2.5分)How will Netflix use AI tools?
A.By making creative movies.
B.By offering free music creation.
C.By allowing viewers to vote online.
D.By creating new famous characters.
30.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “disputes” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Results. B.Tools.
C.Disagreements. D.Plans.
31.(2.5分)What do young people prefer according to recent studies?
A.Enjoying TV shows.
B.Creating something new.
C.Seeing traditional films.
D.Watching finished products.
(本题10分)Using dozens of cameras set up throughout Sweden’s big forests, weeks-long live broadcasts of deer and other wild animals have caught Swedish audiences’ hearts. As three deer nervously come to a lake on screen, comments on the live TV program flood in. “Go on!”; “Jump in!”; “They’re beautiful!” The program Den stora älgvandringen has attracted a large community that watches and comments on the animals’ every move.
Den stora älgvandringen is another example of the so-called “slow TV”, where things are just left to happen at their own pace. Broadcast for a few weeks each spring on TV and online, the video is recorded in real time from a control room lined with screens. Teams work day and night to offer different viewpoints from 30 cameras, some of which can be controlled from a distance. “We can’t decide what happens. We don’t want everything to be perfect. I mean that this is nature and anything can happen. And we really want to show what it is like,” producer Johan Erhag said. “On all the social media, most things are very stressful. There’s a lot of music in programs. There’s a lot of speaking. But this program is the totally opposite way.”
A hunter in his spare time Persson said he enjoys the slow and natural pace of the show. “It’s kind of calming and also interesting. It’s basically wind blowing and you are waiting for something hopefully to show up. You might think that a day spent waiting would be a day lost but it’s not. Instead, it could be an activity that is quite healthy for more people,” Persson said.
“After watching the program, I find there are many things to look at and feel about nature,” Anders Lindberg, a columnist said. “The whole idea of sitting and watching nothing happening for hours in nature is wonderful. We can practice meditation (冥想), which I think for many people is something they lack in big cities. Nature could be a powerful tool used to bridge the gap between the mind and the body, making us feel close to the world around us.”
32.(2.5分)What is special about Den stora älgvandringen?
A.It features animals’ fun activities.
B.It follows wild animals’ life in a natural way.
C.It records animal experiments in natural settings.
D.It uses digital sound effects to impress the viewers.
33.(2.5分)What does Persson say about the program?
A.It teaches him to protect animals. B.It gives him a sense of achievement.
C.It brings him pleasure and relaxation. D.It causes him to pay attention to health.
34.(2.5分)How can the program benefit people according to Anders Lindberg?
A.By showing humans’ role in wildlife care. B.By raising their interest in outdoor activities.
C.By speeding up local tourism development. D.By encouraging a deeper connection with nature.
35.(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Rise of Slow TV in Sweden B.Why Swedes Love Watching Deer on TV
C.Finding Peace Through Nature on Screen D.Sweden’s Slow TV: A New Way to Watch Wildlife
(本题12.5分)Journalism is the gathering, organizing, and distribution (发行) of news through the wide variety of print and non-print media channels. 36(2.5分) The earliest reference to a journalistic product comes from Rome circa 59 B.C., when news was recorded in a circular called the Acta Diurna.
It should come as no surprise that the earliest attempts to keep the public informed were met with government opposition in many cases. 37(2.5分) Because of this, along with the introduction of technology that improved printing and circulation (流通), newspaper publications saw their numbers explode.
38(2.5分) Its earliest form was such properly named periodicals (定期期刊) as the Tattler and Spectator. Both were initial attempts to marry articles of opinions with current events, and by the 1830s, magazines were common mass-circulated periodicals that appealed to a broader audience.
Time passed, and the cost of news gathering increased dramatically. Slowly, news agencies formed to replace independent publishers. However, the print media was soon about to face an entirely new form of news gathering — first, with the invention of the telegraph, then quickly followed by the radio, the television, and mass broadcasting. 39(2.5分)
Non-print media changed the dynamics of news gathering and reporting altogether. It sped up the whole process, making the news, itself, more timely and relevant. Soon, technology became an essential part of journalism, even if the ultimate product was in print form. Today, the Internet delivers breaking news to almost everyone globally at the same time. 40(2.5分) It will likely be the standard for the future.
A.Journalism has a lot to do with technology.
B.It is not a recent phenomenon, by any means.
C.This has created a new model of journalism once again.
D.Each breakthrough in communication reshaped news sharing.
E.But knowledge among the population, as a whole, was growing.
F.Magazines became widespread soon after newspapers appeared.
G.It was an evolution of technology that seemed all but unavoidable.

In such a case, crying in the movie gives you the 46 to release the stored unconscious (无意识的) emotions while consciously believing that you are crying because of the movie.

While watching a movie, an unconscious 49 of memories and fears can happen. This can lead to strong emotions that can be easily 50 with the movie’s effect. If, for example, the movie reminded you of some of your memories or fears, then you can get really emotional and feel like 51 .
Now you might be wondering why some people get affected 52 than others by movies. The 53 is simple. 54 on your own beliefs, values, and concerns, you will get affected in an unusual way. And 55 each person is unique, some people get affected more often than others by movies.

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)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。
Sunshine Valley High School prepared to celebrate its 100th birthday, and the drama club planned a special play for it.
Mrs. Collins, the librarian, told them there might be old scripts (剧本) in the library’s upper storage area. So on a cool November morning, several club members went to look. Among them were Mia, a junior who loved writing, Ethan, a senior who was good with cameras, and Lila, the club president who hoped to direct plays.
Mia reached for a dusty shelf. Suddenly, a loose page fell. It was a handwritten scene from a play called Starlight Dreams. Under the text was a note: “Act 2, Scene 3—Clara meets her future self under the oak tree (橡树), legs tired but eyes bright, determined to keep going even when the way forward gets hard to see…” It was signed by “Elena Marquez, 1972”. Mia saw a leather-bound notebook next to where the page had been and pulled it out—it was Elena’s diary.
They carefully opened the diary. One entry said, “July 5th, 1973. The doctor says I need to rest—no more late nights writing, no more rehearsals (排练). But I keep re-reading Clara’s lines: ‘You don’t stop just because the wind blows hard.’ Maybe one day, someone will finish what I started.” They realized Elena, a former student, had gotten very sick and left school, never finishing her script.
Mrs. Collins came over, surprised. “Elena was a very talented drama student. She had to leave school because of her illness and never came back. No one knew she left these here,” she said. The students felt sad for Elena. “We can finish her play for the school’s 100th birthday!” they all agreed.
For two weeks, they worked after school. Mia finished the script, still keeping Clara as the main character. Lila directed the actors in rehearsals, and Ethan made simple sets based on Elena’s notes. Mrs. Collins found Elena’s address from old yearbooks and invited her to watch the play.
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。
On the celebration day, the school hall was full of people.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Elena stood up and ran to the stage excitedly.
