The sharp differences between these areas, once part of the British and French empires, made it difficult for her to fit in, which led her to examine her own identity — who she truly was. Seeking guidance, she turned to her grandfather who also felt disconnected from his own culture. He expressed sadness about what the Nso people had lost both culturally and materially, including Ngonnso statue. Ngonnso was the founder of the Nso Kingdom dating back to the 14th century. The statue was an important cultural symbol for the Nso. However, it was taken by the Germans in 1902 and has been housed in Berlin’s Ethnological Museum ever since. Inspired by her grandfather’s desire and saddened by the loss of culture, Njobati made a promise to bring back the statue. She believed it would not only achieve her grandfather’s wish but connect her with her Nso heritage again. Njobati did many researches about the statue and former unsuccessful attempts. She realized that return was actually about facing the colonial (殖民主义的) past. Njobati decided to try differently. To gather support online and offline, Njobati began a grassroots campaign. She organized meetings in community halls and churches, met people one-on-one, and used the power of social media. Through Twitter, she established contact with the Ethnological Museum. Njobati’s tireless efforts paid off. She was told that a decision about Ngonnso statue was coming, which was an important moment for her. “Finally, this is happening. Not just for me, but for the Nso people, and for Cameroon,” she cried. “This also lends a hand to other communities that are seeking justice for stolen cultural relics.” 24．(2.5分)What made Njobati decide to bring back the Ngonnso statue? A．Her respect for the founder. B．Her experience in attending university. C．Her interest in colonial history. D．Her desire to reconnect with Nso culture. 25．(2.5分)What did Njobati do to gain support for her campaign? A．She did wide and complete researches. B．She contacted the Ethnological Museum. C．She turned to her grandfather for guidance. D．She organized meetings and used social media. 26．(2.5分)What does “this” refer to in the last paragraph? A．The fight for the statue. B．The grassroots support. C．The return of the statue. D．The grassroots campaign. 27．(2.5分)Which of the following could best describe Njobati? A．Confident and hard-working. B．Determined and strategic. C．Optimistic and open-minded. D．Generous and courageous. 【答案】24．D 25．D 26．C 27．B 【导语】喀麦隆的Njobati发起民间运动，多方奔走争取归还被德国掠走的恩贡索雕像，以此重连本民族文化，也助力其他族群追索文物。 【详解】24．推理判断题。根据第三段“Inspired by her grandfather’s desire and saddened by the loss of culture, Njobati made a promise to bring back the statue. She believed it would not only achieve her grandfather’s wish but connect her with her Nso heritage again.(受到祖父心愿的鼓舞，又为文化的流失感到难过，Njobati许下诺言要把雕像带回。她相信这不仅能够完成祖父的心愿，还能让她重新和恩索人的文化遗产建立联系。)”可知，她想要重新联结恩索文化的渴望促使她决心找回雕像。 25．细节理解题。根据第四段“To gather support online and offline, Njobati began a grassroots campaign. She organized meetings in community halls and churches, met people one‑on‑one, and used the power of social media.(为了线上线下收集支持，Njobati发起一场民间运动。她在社区大厅和教堂组织集会，一对一接触民众，并且利用社交媒体的力量。)”可知，Njobati通过组织集会和使用社交媒体获取支持。 26．词句猜测题。根据第五段“Njobati’s tireless efforts paid off. She was told that a decision about Ngonnso statue was coming, which was an important moment for her.(Njobati不懈的努力得到了回报。她被告知关于恩贡索雕像的决议即将出台，这对她来说是重要时刻。)” 以及最后一段 “Finally, this is happening. Not just for me, but for the Nso people, and for Cameroon.(终于，这件事要成真了。这不只是为了我，也是为了恩索人民，为了喀麦隆。)”可知，this指代雕像的归还。 27．推理判断题。根据第三段“Njobati made a promise to bring back the statue.(Njobati许下诺言要把雕像带回。)”以及第四段“Njobati decided to try differently. To gather support online and offline, Njobati began a grassroots campaign.(Njobati决定换一种方式尝试。为了线上线下收集支持，Njobati发起一场民间运动。)”可知，Njobati意志坚定，并且讲究策略。 （本题10分）Every two weeks, a language is at risk of disappearing. To help stop the tide, a project is exploring the use of virtual reality (VR) technology and immersive（沉浸式的）storytelling to try to restore endangered indigenous cultures and languages. Created by NowHere Media before the start of our project, Kusunda is an immersive interactive film that encourages viewers to learn key words of the Kusunda language, which is under threat of disappearing in Nepal. The film documents the nomadic way of life of the Kusunda people. It features their language, in the form of interviews with its last remaining speakers. NowHere Media worked closely with Lil Bahadur, just one of 150 Kusunda speakers left in the world, and his granddaughter Hima. Lil almost lost his mother tongue when he gave up one of his indigenous cultures — the hunter-gatherer lifestyle — to live in the city at the age of 18. But researchers discovered that Lil’s teenage granddaughter was ardent about keeping her grandfather’s language and culture alive. “If the Kusunda language disappears, then the existence of the Kusunda people in Nepal will also fade away,” Hima said. “We’ll lose our identity. That’s why I want to save our language.” As to immersive technology, StoryLab received a grant from the British Academy to evaluate its potential for bringing endangered languages back to life. Our research study, Reviving Kusunda, compared the interactive VR experience alongside a short film created during the project. We threw light on the role of immersive technologies in creating emotional understanding of the subject in comparison to regular film. Participants in our research — both members of the Kusunda community in Nepal and the public in the UK — identified many benefits of using multiple formats. However, they expressed a clear preference for VR. They highlighted the importance of interactivity and immersion in engaging viewers in the subject matter. With the VR experience, viewers are part of the story — a key aspect that helps revive stories and memories from the past. 28．(2.5分)What can be inferred about Kusunda from paragraph 2? A．It is a tool for printing short stories. B．It is a movie to explain a group’s industries. C．It is a way to save an endangered language. D．It is an app to advertise a kind of film. 29．(2.5分)What happened to Lil when he was aged 18? A．He had to quit school. B．He promoted his native language. C．He earned a lot of money in a city. D．He broke away from part of his tradition. 30．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “ardent” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Sensitive. B．Surprised. C．Knowledgeable. D．Passionate. 31．(2.5分)Why are the public in the UK mentioned? A．To indicate they supported the project. B．To say they liked hearing faraway stories. C．To show they were enthusiastic about advanced technology. D．To praise them for saving many endangered customs. 【答案】28．C 29．D 30．D 31．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一个借助虚拟现实（VR）技术和沉浸式故事讲述来拯救濒危土著文化和语言的项目。 【详解】28．推理判断题。根据第二段“Created by NowHere Media before the start of our project, Kusunda is an immersive interactive film that encourages viewers to learn key words of the Kusunda language, which is under threat of disappearing in Nepal.(《Kusunda》由NowHere Media在我们的计划开始前制作，是一部沉浸式互动影片，鼓励观众学习Kusunda语的关键字，这种语言在尼泊尔正面临消失的威胁。)”可知，这部电影旨在帮助人们学习濒危的Kusunda语，是拯救濒危语言的一种方式。故选C。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段“Lil almost lost his mother tongue when he gave up one of his indigenous cultures — the hunter-gatherer lifestyle — to live in the city at the age of 18.(18 岁时，利尔放弃了他本土文化中的一种——狩猎采集生活方式，搬到城市生活，几乎因此失去了他的母语)”可知，Lil在18岁时脱离了部分传统生活方式。故选D。 30．词句猜测题。根据第三段“If the Kusunda language disappears, then the existence of the Kusunda people in Nepal will also fade away, ” Hima said. “We’ll lose our identity. That’s why I want to save our language. ”(“如果Kusunda语消失，那么尼泊尔Kusunda族的存在也将逐渐消失”Hima说。“我们将失去我们的身份。这就是为什么我想拯救我们的语言。”)” 可知，Hima非常想拯救自己民族的语言，对保留祖父的语言和文化充满热情。由此猜测，划线词为“热情的”。故选D。 31．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Participants in our research — both members of the Kusunda community in Nepal and the public in the UK — identified many benefits of using multiple formats. However, they expressed a clear preference for VR.(我们研究的参与者——尼泊尔Kusunda社区成员和英国公众 —— 都认识到使用多种形式的诸多好处。然而，他们明确表示更喜欢虚拟现实技术)” 可知，提到英国公众是为了表明他们认可该项目中使用的沉浸式技术，对项目持支持态度。故选A。 （本题10分）Many well-known places in Chicago stand on sites with rich histories. For example, the Thompson Center replaced the Sherman House Hotel, and Regenstein Library now sits where the first sustained nuclear reaction took place in 1942. However, discovering the history of ordinary streets or homes is much harder. A project at the University of Chicago aims to change this. Called the Chicago Urban Heritage Project, it uses century-old Sanborn fire insurance maps and modern machine learning to uncover the city’s past. These detailed maps show buildings, materials, and land use across Chicago over time. Students digitize the maps to create an interactive system that lets users explore how neighborhoods have changed. The project began as a way to help students study the city more deeply. Early research focused on streets like 55th and 63rd, which were once lively commercial areas but later transformed into quieter residential zones due to urban renewal. Representing these changes required detailed maps from different decades. At first, creating such maps was slow and labor-intensive. Student Parker Otto improved the process by writing Python code to identify buildings in scanned maps and change them into digital forms using QGIS. This allowed the project to expand beyond a few streets to larger parts of the city. Today, students continue the work by turning historical data into user-friendly digital maps. These maps show buildings, construction types, and even past uses, helping users understand the history of specific locations. So far, about 40% of Chicago has been mapped. The project has also led to interesting discoveries, such as identifying the former home of Al Capone. More importantly, it reveals how transportation changes, demolition (拆毁), and urban planning reshaped neighborhoods. The data is already influencing modern development plans by showing that some areas once hosted much higher density and activity. At its core, this project tries to offer people a clearer picture of the hidden local history as well as the gradual evolution of urban areas. 32．(2.5分)Why is the Chicago Urban Heritage Project launched? A．To boost the youth’s passion for Chicago. B．To demonstrate Chicago’s global influence. C．To promote well-known landmarks in Chicago.

Interestingly, unlike man-made inventions such as light bulbs or computers, mathematics isn’t something that was invented by someone. 36(2.5分) And its discovery can’t even be attributed to one person. Instead, mathematics developed gradually over thousands of years through the contributions of many people! 37(2.5分) No one can know for sure, but we can use our imaginations to think about how mathematics might have gotten its start. For example, if we go all the way back to prehistoric humans gathering peaches to eat, we can imagine how this basic task probably gave rise to a need for math. If you and your prehistoric friend gathered a basket full of peaches, you’d probably agree to divide them evenly (平均地). First, you’d need to know how many peaches you gathered. That means you’d need to count them. You might first need to come up with names for the basic units of measurement. 38(2.5分) Similarly, division might have originated from the need to divide that pile of peaches. 39(2.5分) And scientists believe that many basic mathematical functions, such as addition and multiplication appeared thousands of years ago in various areas at the same time, including China, India, Mesopotamia, and Egypt. More advanced mathematics is traced to ancient Greece over 2,500 years ago. 40(2.5分) Since then, mathematical findings have inspired later mathematicians and scientists to build on predecessors’ work, continuously broadening our comprehension of mathematics and its connection to the world. A．How did it get started? B．When was it discovered? C．It’s really more of a discovery. D．They were the first to discover the basics of mathematics. E．Around this time, mathematics first became an organized science. F．This might be how counting and the earliest numbers came about. G．In fact, many mathematical principles were developed to meet practical needs. 【答案】36．C 37．A 38．F 39．G 40．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了数学的起源和发展，强调了它不是个人发明，而是通过数千年的积累和多地区文化的贡献逐渐形成的知识体系。 【详解】36．上文“Interestingly, unlike man-made inventions such as light bulbs or computers, mathematics isn’t something that was invented by someone.(有趣的是，与灯泡或电脑等人为发明不同，数学并不是由某人发明的)”说明数学并非人为创造，而是有其自身的存在方式。下文“And its discovery can’t even be attributed to one person.(而且它的发现甚至不能归功于一个人)”进一步强调了数学的发现是一个集体过程，而非个人行为。空处需解释数学的本质。 选项C“It’s really more of a discovery.(它更像是一种发现)”完美承接上下文逻辑，强调数学的本质是发现而非发明。故选C。 37．下文“No one can know for sure, but we can use our imaginations to think about how mathematics might have gotten its start. For example, if we go all the way back to prehistoric humans gathering peaches to eat, we can imagine how this basic task probably gave rise to a need for math. If you and your prehistoric friend gathered a basket full of peaches, you’d probably agree to divide them evenly (平均地).(没有人能确切知晓，但我们可以发挥想象力，思考数学可能是如何起源的。例如，如果我们追溯到史前人类采摘桃子食用的时期，便能想象这项基础活动很可能催生了对数学的需求。假设你和史前的朋友采了一篮桃子，你们很可能会同意把桃子平均分)”用史前人类分配桃子的例子解释数学可能的起源。空处应为引导问题的总起句。选项A“How did it get started?(它是如何开始的？)”直接提出了关于数学起源的问题，与下文内容相呼应。故选A。 38．上文“If you and your prehistoric friend gathered a basket full of peaches, you’d probably agree to divide them evenly (平均地). First, you’d need to know how many peaches you gathered. That means you’d need to count them. You might first need to come up with names for the basic units of measurement.(假设你和生活在史前时期的朋友采了满满一篮桃子，你们很可能会同意把这些桃子平均分。首先，你需要知道一共采了多少个桃子，这就意味着你得把它们数一数。你可能首先需要为基本的计量单位想出名称)”描述史前人类数桃子和命名计数单位的过程。空处需总结这一行为的意义。选项F“This might be how counting and the earliest numbers came about.(这可能就是计数和最早数字的由来)”中“this”指代前文数桃子的行为，“counting”和“numbers”与“count them”“names for the basic units”对应，总结该例子与数学起源的关系，符合语境。故选F。 39．上文“Similarly, division might have originated from the need to divide that pile of peaches.(同样，除法可能源于分配那堆桃子的需要)”以“分桃子”为例说明除法的起源，下文“And scientists believe that many basic mathematical functions, such as addition and multiplication appeared thousands of years ago in various areas at the same time, including China, India, Mesopotamia, and Egypt.(并且科学家们认为，许多基本的数学运算，比如加法和乘法，是在数千年前同时出现在不同地区的，包括中国、印度、美索不达米亚和埃及)”列举加法、乘法等基础运算的起源，均体现数学源于实际需求。选项G“In fact, many mathematical principles were developed to meet practical needs.(事实上，许多数学原理都是为了满足实际需求而发展起来的)” 是概括性结论，与上文例子形成“例证+观点”关系，强调了数学原理与实际需求的紧密联系。故选G。 40．上文“More advanced mathematics is traced to ancient Greece over 2,500 years ago.(更高级的数学可以追溯到2500多年前的古希腊)”提到古希腊时期的数学发展，下文“Since then, mathematical findings have inspired later mathematicians and scientists to build on predecessors’ work, continuously broadening our comprehension of mathematics and its connection to the world.(从那以后，数学上的发现激励着后来的数学家和科学家在前人的研究基础上继续探索，不断拓展我们对数学及其与世界联系的理解)”提到数学研究对后世的启发。选项E“Around this time, mathematics first became an organized science.(大约在这个时候，数学首次成为一门有组织的科学)”承接上文进一步说明古希腊时期数学的发展阶段，与下文形成时间上的延续。故选E。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Even at 81, Mei Jingtian continues to patrol (巡逻) the Shixiaguan section of the Great Wall.

Master Lin, the owner, had been devoted to the folk art of paper-cutting for over forty years. His works were breathtaking: vivid dragons and phoenixes and delicate Chinese characters—all lifelike, with every cut precise and smooth. Locals praised his craftsmanship as a living treasure of the town. He had two apprentices (学徒): his trendy college granddaughter Lin Xue, and Li Mo, a quiet boy who stuck firmly to tradition. Though they practiced hard, Master Lin always shook his head. “You copy the shapes, but not the soul of the craft,” he would say. Across the street was a popular modern handicraft store. Its owner often mocked the old studio, saying young people preferred fashionable crafts over outdated paper-cuttings. Master Lin remained calm and kept working. When Master Lin fell seriously ill and later passed away, Lin Xue and Li Mo tried their best to run the studio. However, fewer and fewer customers stepped in. Business decreased day by day, and the studio was on the edge of closing down. Lin Xue was eager to make changes: replace the old red paper with colorful craft paper, design simple cartoon patterns, and sell small paper-cutting keychains online. But Li Mo firmly disagreed, insisting that they must stick to Master Lin’s traditional techniques. One day, while tidying up Master Lin’s worktable, Lin Xue found a tattered sketchbook filled with his drafts: cartoon-style paper-cuttings of ancient characters, mini paper-cutting bookmarks, and notes written in his shaky handwriting: “Traditional patterns are the root, but new designs can let more people see the beauty of paper-cutting. Keep the soul, change the form. Pass on the craft, not just the old looks.” 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。 Holding the sketchbook tightly, the two youngsters made a decision together. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, the quiet paper-cutting studio was completely different. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Holding the sketchbook tightly, the two youngsters made a decision together. They would combine tradition with innovation. Li Mo kept using the classic cutting skills Master Lin had taught them, ensuring every piece was delicate and full of soul. Meanwhile, Lin Xue designed fresh patterns: cute cartoon animals, tiny flower bookmarks and keychains. They also packaged the works nicely and promoted them online, hoping to attract more young people. Both were full of hope, determined to carry on the precious folk art. Months later, the quiet paper-cutting studio was completely different. It was crowded with customers of all ages. Tourists took photos and bought the creative paper-cuttings. Even the owner of the opposite store came over to admire them. More importantly, many young people who were drawn to the fresh designs came to admire the art and even learn basic cutting skills. The old art was reborn, proving that real inheritance means keeping the essence while embracing changes, allowing tradition to shine in modern times. 【导语】本文以人物为线索。讲述了剪纸匠人林师傅坚守传统技艺四十余年。他离世后，两名学徒因经营理念产生分歧，后来发现师傅手记，领悟到传承需守内核、创新形式。二人融合传统工艺与现代设计并线上推广，让古老剪纸技艺重获生机。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以写两人发现师傅手记，领悟到传承需守内核、创新形式。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以写两人融合传统工艺与现代设计并线上推广，让古老剪纸技艺重获生机。 2.续写线索：共同做出了决定→将传统与创新相结合→通过网络推广→剪纸工作室焕然一新→吸引了各个年龄段的顾客→古老剪纸技艺重获生机 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①确保：ensure/guarantee ②吸引：attract/appeal to 情绪类 ①珍贵的：precious/valuable ②欣赏：admire /appreciate 【点睛】[高分句型1].

The sharp differences between these areas, once part of the British and French empires, made it difficult for her to fit in, which led her to examine her own identity — who she truly was. Seeking guidance, she turned to her grandfather who also felt disconnected from his own culture. He expressed sadness about what the Nso people had lost both culturally and materially, including Ngonnso statue. Ngonnso was the founder of the Nso Kingdom dating back to the 14th century. The statue was an important cultural symbol for the Nso. However, it was taken by the Germans in 1902 and has been housed in Berlin’s Ethnological Museum ever since. Inspired by her grandfather’s desire and saddened by the loss of culture, Njobati made a promise to bring back the statue. She believed it would not only achieve her grandfather’s wish but connect her with her Nso heritage again. Njobati did many researches about the statue and former unsuccessful attempts. She realized that return was actually about facing the colonial (殖民主义的) past. Njobati decided to try differently. To gather support online and offline, Njobati began a grassroots campaign. She organized meetings in community halls and churches, met people one-on-one, and used the power of social media. Through Twitter, she established contact with the Ethnological Museum. Njobati’s tireless efforts paid off. She was told that a decision about Ngonnso statue was coming, which was an important moment for her. “Finally, this is happening. Not just for me, but for the Nso people, and for Cameroon,” she cried. “This also lends a hand to other communities that are seeking justice for stolen cultural relics.” 24．(2.5分)What made Njobati decide to bring back the Ngonnso statue? A．Her respect for the founder. B．Her experience in attending university. C．Her interest in colonial history. D．Her desire to reconnect with Nso culture. 25．(2.5分)What did Njobati do to gain support for her campaign? A．She did wide and complete researches. B．She contacted the Ethnological Museum. C．She turned to her grandfather for guidance. D．She organized meetings and used social media. 26．(2.5分)What does “this” refer to in the last paragraph? A．The fight for the statue. B．The grassroots support. C．The return of the statue. D．The grassroots campaign. 27．(2.5分)Which of the following could best describe Njobati? A．Confident and hard-working. B．Determined and strategic. C．Optimistic and open-minded. D．Generous and courageous. （本题10分）Every two weeks, a language is at risk of disappearing. To help stop the tide, a project is exploring the use of virtual reality (VR) technology and immersive（沉浸式的）storytelling to try to restore endangered indigenous cultures and languages. Created by NowHere Media before the start of our project, Kusunda is an immersive interactive film that encourages viewers to learn key words of the Kusunda language, which is under threat of disappearing in Nepal. The film documents the nomadic way of life of the Kusunda people. It features their language, in the form of interviews with its last remaining speakers. NowHere Media worked closely with Lil Bahadur, just one of 150 Kusunda speakers left in the world, and his granddaughter Hima. Lil almost lost his mother tongue when he gave up one of his indigenous cultures — the hunter-gatherer lifestyle — to live in the city at the age of 18. But researchers discovered that Lil’s teenage granddaughter was ardent about keeping her grandfather’s language and culture alive. “If the Kusunda language disappears, then the existence of the Kusunda people in Nepal will also fade away,” Hima said. “We’ll lose our identity. That’s why I want to save our language.” As to immersive technology, StoryLab received a grant from the British Academy to evaluate its potential for bringing endangered languages back to life. Our research study, Reviving Kusunda, compared the interactive VR experience alongside a short film created during the project. We threw light on the role of immersive technologies in creating emotional understanding of the subject in comparison to regular film. Participants in our research — both members of the Kusunda community in Nepal and the public in the UK — identified many benefits of using multiple formats. However, they expressed a clear preference for VR. They highlighted the importance of interactivity and immersion in engaging viewers in the subject matter. With the VR experience, viewers are part of the story — a key aspect that helps revive stories and memories from the past. 28．(2.5分)What can be inferred about Kusunda from paragraph 2? A．It is a tool for printing short stories. B．It is a movie to explain a group’s industries. C．It is a way to save an endangered language. D．It is an app to advertise a kind of film. 29．(2.5分)What happened to Lil when he was aged 18? A．He had to quit school. B．He promoted his native language. C．He earned a lot of money in a city. D．He broke away from part of his tradition. 30．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “ardent” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Sensitive. B．Surprised. C．Knowledgeable. D．Passionate. 31．(2.5分)Why are the public in the UK mentioned? A．To indicate they supported the project. B．To say they liked hearing faraway stories. C．To show they were enthusiastic about advanced technology. D．To praise them for saving many endangered customs. （本题10分）Many well-known places in Chicago stand on sites with rich histories. For example, the Thompson Center replaced the Sherman House Hotel, and Regenstein Library now sits where the first sustained nuclear reaction took place in 1942. However, discovering the history of ordinary streets or homes is much harder. A project at the University of Chicago aims to change this. Called the Chicago Urban Heritage Project, it uses century-old Sanborn fire insurance maps and modern machine learning to uncover the city’s past. These detailed maps show buildings, materials, and land use across Chicago over time. Students digitize the maps to create an interactive system that lets users explore how neighborhoods have changed. The project began as a way to help students study the city more deeply. Early research focused on streets like 55th and 63rd, which were once lively commercial areas but later transformed into quieter residential zones due to urban renewal. Representing these changes required detailed maps from different decades. At first, creating such maps was slow and labor-intensive. Student Parker Otto improved the process by writing Python code to identify buildings in scanned maps and change them into digital forms using QGIS. This allowed the project to expand beyond a few streets to larger parts of the city. Today, students continue the work by turning historical data into user-friendly digital maps. These maps show buildings, construction types, and even past uses, helping users understand the history of specific locations. So far, about 40% of Chicago has been mapped. The project has also led to interesting discoveries, such as identifying the former home of Al Capone. More importantly, it reveals how transportation changes, demolition (拆毁), and urban planning reshaped neighborhoods. The data is already influencing modern development plans by showing that some areas once hosted much higher density and activity. At its core, this project tries to offer people a clearer picture of the hidden local history as well as the gradual evolution of urban areas. 32．(2.5分)Why is the Chicago Urban Heritage Project launched? A．To boost the youth’s passion for Chicago. B．To demonstrate Chicago’s global influence. C．To promote well-known landmarks in Chicago. D．To help better understand Chicago’s ordinary buildings. 33．(2.5分)What contribution did Parker Otto make to the project? A．He helped to train the participants. B．He quickened the creation of the digital map. C．He focused the project on specific neighborhoods. D．He introduced new historical sources unavailable before. 34．(2.5分)What aspect of the project is discussed in paragraph 6? A．Its achievement. B．Its final aim. C．Its next move. D．Its challenge. 35．(2.5分)What is the best title for the text? A．The Classical Architecture in Chicago B．The Importance of Modern City Planning C．Old Maps Recover Chicago’s Hidden Urban History D．Machine Learning Changes the Way of Making Maps （本题12.5分）Have you ever thought about the origins of mathematics? Interestingly, unlike man-made inventions such as light bulbs or computers, mathematics isn’t something that was invented by someone. 36(2.5分) And its discovery can’t even be attributed to one person. Instead, mathematics developed gradually over thousands of years through the contributions of many people! 37(2.5分) No one can know for sure, but we can use our imaginations to think about how mathematics might have gotten its start. For example, if we go all the way back to prehistoric humans gathering peaches to eat, we can imagine how this basic task probably gave rise to a need for math. If you and your prehistoric friend gathered a basket full of peaches, you’d probably agree to divide them evenly (平均地). First, you’d need to know how many peaches you gathered. That means you’d need to count them. You might first need to come up with names for the basic units of measurement. 38(2.5分) Similarly, division might have originated from the need to divide that pile of peaches. 39(2.5分) And scientists believe that many basic mathematical functions, such as addition and multiplication appeared thousands of years ago in various areas at the same time, including China, India, Mesopotamia, and Egypt. More advanced mathematics is traced to ancient Greece over 2,500 years ago. 40(2.5分) Since then, mathematical findings have inspired later mathematicians and scientists to build on predecessors’ work, continuously broadening our comprehension of mathematics and its connection to the world. A．How did it get started? B．When was it discovered? C．It’s really more of a discovery. D．They were the first to discover the basics of mathematics. E．Around this time, mathematics first became an organized science. F．This might be how counting and the earliest numbers came about. G．In fact, many mathematical principles were developed to meet practical needs. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Even at 81, Mei Jingtian continues to patrol (巡逻) the Shixiaguan section of the Great Wall.

Master Lin, the owner, had been devoted to the folk art of paper-cutting for over forty years. His works were breathtaking: vivid dragons and phoenixes and delicate Chinese characters—all lifelike, with every cut precise and smooth. Locals praised his craftsmanship as a living treasure of the town. He had two apprentices (学徒): his trendy college granddaughter Lin Xue, and Li Mo, a quiet boy who stuck firmly to tradition. Though they practiced hard, Master Lin always shook his head. “You copy the shapes, but not the soul of the craft,” he would say. Across the street was a popular modern handicraft store. Its owner often mocked the old studio, saying young people preferred fashionable crafts over outdated paper-cuttings. Master Lin remained calm and kept working. When Master Lin fell seriously ill and later passed away, Lin Xue and Li Mo tried their best to run the studio. However, fewer and fewer customers stepped in. Business decreased day by day, and the studio was on the edge of closing down. Lin Xue was eager to make changes: replace the old red paper with colorful craft paper, design simple cartoon patterns, and sell small paper-cutting keychains online. But Li Mo firmly disagreed, insisting that they must stick to Master Lin’s traditional techniques. One day, while tidying up Master Lin’s worktable, Lin Xue found a tattered sketchbook filled with his drafts: cartoon-style paper-cuttings of ancient characters, mini paper-cutting bookmarks, and notes written in his shaky handwriting: “Traditional patterns are the root, but new designs can let more people see the beauty of paper-cutting. Keep the soul, change the form. Pass on the craft, not just the old looks.” 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。 Holding the sketchbook tightly, the two youngsters made a decision together. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, the quiet paper-cutting studio was completely different. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
