Here are the four most common payment choices.Contactless Payments Contactless payments are perfect for drivers in a hurry. With contactless payments, you just tap your phone, and charging starts right away. Operators charge drivers small extra fees, and contactless payments don’t offer discounts.App-Based Payments For home charging users, the apps make it easy to track and manage home charging costs. For operators, app-based systems enable you to collect driver behavior data to improve station performance. New drivers might find the app download and account setup a bit troublesome. The phone signal is necessary for users.Card Payments For older drivers or those who prefer traditional payment methods, card payments are very accessible. For those operators, card readers are easy to set up and maintain and they’re a great alternative if contactless or app systems go wrong. Card payments carry small service fees. Also, card readers need regular care to prevent damage.PnC Payments In a PnC (Plug & Charge) EV charging process, charging starts once you plug in. Plug & Charge payments are linked to a contract (合同) associated with the vehicle and enabled by ISO 15118 using digital certificates. A great EV charger payment system should make charging easier for both drivers and operators. These four payment methods are ready for you to choose from and backed by our round-the-clock after-sales service. 21．(2.5分)Which payment method needs mobile phone signal? A．Contactless Payments. B．Card Payments. C．App-Based Payments. D．PnC Payments. 22．(2.5分)What do Contactless Payments and Card Payments have in common? A．They are suitable for hurried drivers. B．A contract is associated with vehicles. C．Small extra fees are charged to drivers. D．They need regular care against damage. 23．(2.5分)Where is the text probably taken from? A．An online blog. B．An advertisement. C．A science report. D．A fashion magazine. （本题10分）What if you could use the plastic waste littering your home country to help solve its housing crisis? For architect Oscar Andrés Méndez and his business partner, electronics engineer Isabel Cristina Gámez, that inspiration led to an invention. Their Colombia-based company, Conceptos Plásticos, transforms plastic, including bags, snack-food containers, and shampoo bottles, into a modular building system of bricks and columns. The Lego-like blocks are made of about 95 percent plastic; builders only need to supply a roof and windows. A typical two-bedroom house recovers some six tons of plastic and can be built in about five days at a cost of anywhere from 4,000 to 7,000 — far cheaper than traditional construction. The structures are also earthquake-resistant, fireproof, and durable. Initially, Conceptos Plásticos partnered with private companies to build houses and schools in Colombia. Years ago, they learned from UNICEF’s representative in Côte d’Ivoire about plastic waste blocking drains and the shortage of schools in the country. Visiting Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, they were moved to see women carrying children while collecting plastic for little pay. “We have the solution,” Méndez remembers thinking. Conceptos Plásticos had the technology. They just needed to share it. As part of a three-million-dollar deal with UNICEF, Conceptos Plásticos built a new factory in Abidjan and hired workers, mainly women, to source the plastic needed. So far, over 4,000 tons of plastic have been transformed into more than 550 classrooms. The effort has created a circular economy (循环经济) that removes waste from the environment, improves the educational system by way of well-designed buildings, and creates jobs. Méndez and Gámez are now negotiating a similar school project in Ethiopia and investigating how to build bathrooms in poor areas in South Sudan. To share their technology in places where building new factories may present challenges, the partners recently designed a smaller version of their system that can be transported in a 40-foot container. It may run on waste, but the concept is not just beautiful but brilliant. 24．(2.5分)What can be learned about Méndez and Gámez’s invention? A．It supplies roofs and windows. B．It creates new plastic materials. C．It turns waste into treasure. D．It improves builders’ safety. 25．(2.5分)Which of the following can best describe Conceptos Plásticos’ product? A．Flexible and free. B．Time-consuming but green. C．Labour-intensive but cheap. D．Economical and sustainable. 26．(2.5分)What does the specific data in Paragraph 4 imply? A．The scale of plastic waste. B．The impact of the project. C．The efforts made by local government. D．The challenges Conceptos Plásticos faced. 27．(2.5分)What is the author’s attitude toward the project of Conceptos Plásticos? A．Doubtful but tolerant. B．Positive and admiring. C．Critical but objective. D．Uncertain and unconcerned. （本题10分）Back in the 1970s, psychologist J. P. Guilford conducted a well-known experiment to study creativity known widely as the nine-dot puzzle. He challenged research subjects to connect all nine dots with merely four straight lines, without lifting their pencils off the paper. Most volunteers limited their attempts within the invisible square formed by the dots. Only one fifth of the participants managed to break out of the boundary and extend their lines into the blank space surrounding the dots. The fact that four fifths of participants were effectively blinded by the boundaries of the square led Guilford to draw a sweeping conclusion: creativity demands people to break conventional limits, or go outside the box. This viewpoint quickly gained massive popularity and went viral. Soon afterwards, specialists focusing on creative ability began teaching business managers this way to think outside the box. The concept became so mainstream that few scholars bothered to test the original experimental data. That was until two separate research groups carried out follow-up tests: Clarke Burnham & Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba & Robert Weisberg. Both research teams adopted identical experimental settings and split volunteers into two groups. The first group received exactly the same requirements as participants in Guilford’s original research. The second group was clearly informed that the valid solution required drawing lines beyond the imaginary square formed by the dots. Guess what? The final result was surprising: merely 25 percent of the second group worked out the puzzle. From a statistical perspective, this tiny 5-percent rise in success rates is insignificant, as this can be attributed to random sampling error. We can analyze this unexpected outcome further. Successfully finishing this task literally requires participants to step outside the preset boundary. Yet giving clear, explicit guidance brought no improvement to participants’ performance. That is, straightforward and clear instructions to think outside the box did not help. That this advice is useless should effectively have killed off the much widely spread — and therefore, much more dangerous — metaphor that out-of-the-box thinking boosts creativity. After all, this simple follow-up research proved that the popular connection between out-of-bound thinking and creativity is a misconception without solid basis. 28．(2.5分)What did Guilford observe in his nine-dot puzzle experiment? A．Visual perception. B．Theoretical knowledge. C．Thinking patterns. D．Practical experience. 29．(2.5分)What was the purpose of the two teams’ follow-up research? A．To gather supporting evidence. B．To examine the catchy concept. C．To overturn the original conclusion. D．To popularize Guilford’s viewpoint. 30．(2.5分)Which of the following best characterizes the follow-up experiment? A．Revealing. B．Complicated. C．Controversial. D．Groundless. 31．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Creative Thinking: A Deadly Trap B．Puzzle Solving: A Key to Creativity C．Thinking Outside the Box: A False Link D．Nine-Dot Puzzle: A Classic Test of Creativity （本题10分）A robot inspired by desert tumbleweeds (风滚草) may become a new generation of energy-efficient explorers rolling into future disaster zones. “The inspiration struck me on a windy winter afternoon along the shores of Lake Neuchâtel,” said Sanjay Manoharan. “I was watching kite surfers use the wind to carve beautiful arcs (弧线) and achieve effortless lifts. Yet, I realized nature had already perfected this art long before us.” The tumbleweed is famous for its efficiency. Despite appearing like a seemingly random mass of twigs (细枝), the plants use wind to travel large distances and spread seeds as moving along on their journeys. In fact, they work so well that ecologists are trying to control them due to their tendency to turn into wildfire risks. Manoharan and his research group investigated how the plant moves so easily, despite generating more air resistance than a solid ball. The results revealed an unexpected, previously undocumented structural feature of tumbleweeds: the plant remains are spongier on the “top” than they are on their “bottom”. “In the upright position, the upper half, being porous, allowed airflow to pass through freely. In contrast, the lower half was tightly packed and thus offered greater resistance,” the study’s authors explained. Scientists included these findings in a robotic design printed using 3D laser molding. Their creation named HERMES was far more efficient than either natural tumbleweeds or artificial balls. In field testing, HERMES successfully moved through sharp slopes. During maze tests, it used 48 percent less energy than a robot requiring constant control, and finished the maze 37 percent faster. With additional advancements and small adjustments, robots like HERMES could one day be sent into dangerous disaster zones, deadly minefields, and even on windy neighboring planets like Mars. 32．(2.5分)Why are ecologists attempting to control tumbleweeds? A．Because they tend to cause fires. B．Because they spread seeds too quickly. C．Because they look like a random mass of twigs. D．Because they travel too fast and block paths. 33．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “porous” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Solid. B．Holey. C．Soft. D．Thick. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn about HERMES? A．It requires no energy to operate. B．It demands constant human control. C．It performs better in energy use and speed. D．It has the same structure as natural tumbleweeds. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text? A．HERMES: An Energy-Efficient Robot in Use B．HERMES: A Nature-Inspired Robot for Future Explorations C．Tumbleweeds: A Wind-Driven Traveler That Spreads Seeds D．Tumbleweeds: A Natural Model for Energy-Efficient Design （本题12.5分）Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation (调控) to security monitoring. A sudden power failure is more than a simple inconvenience. It can shut down your heating, cut off your network, and even leave your security system blind all at once. 36(2.5分) One of the benefits of a portable power station is the comfort it brings when the power fails. Imagine a storm hits, and suddenly, your heater or air conditioning shuts off. With a power station, you can keep essential devices running. 37(2.5分) This makes it quieter, cleaner, easier to maintain, and more suitable for indoor use. Being able to control appliances via Wi-Fi is one of the hallmarks of modern smart homes. However, if the power goes down, you lose access to that connectivity. Even if the power comes back in a few minutes, some of your appliances may not work properly after a forced restart. 38(2.5分) That way, you won’t lose connectivity during a blackout (停电). If you’ve invested in solar panels or another renewable energy source, a portable power station can be an excellent way to store energy. When the sun is shining, any extra energy generated by your solar panels can be stored in the portable power station. 39(2.5分) 40(2.5分) An entire security system will become blind without stable power. So if you want to make sure your system is fully functional during a blackout, you’d better have a portable power station as backup power. A．Don’t count on backup batteries for security. B．It powers your home when solar panels stop working. C．A portable power station can keep your Wi-Fi running. D．A portable power station can prevent such interruptions. E．Security systems require nonstop power to stay effective. F．Internal batteries in some devices disable Wi-Fi to conserve energy. G．Unlike traditional generators, the portable power station runs on batteries. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）David and Natasha became friends with a shared love of fitness and healthy eating. As chemists, they were aware of how harmful preservatives (防腐剂) can be to our bodies. Calcium propionate, for instance, prevents bread from going bad by 41 bacteria. But it also can increase the 42 of blood sugar problems and weight gain. After reading a study about the ability of mushroom fiber to 43 foods’ storage life, the two friends were 44 . With an ambitious goal of developing a 45 preservative, they bought mushroom stems (梗) from farmers who would otherwise throw them away. Seven years later, in 2023, their company 46 mushroom-fiber extract. When added to food products, it helps increase their 47 life without leaving a noticeable taste. The product is now being 48 by wine factories in New Zealand. “If it works, it can 49 the added sulfites (亚硫酸盐) that wine makers 50 right now for a longer shelf life,” says Brown. Grapes naturally produce sulfite, so the extra can be too much for some people to 51 . It’s a win-win-win: for the climate by reducing food waste emissions, for our 52 , and for the mushroom farmers who can sell their 53 . For the two friends, their shared 54 has grown into something bigger: a mission to make the food industry more 55 . 41．(1分)A．growing B．killing C．feeding D．spreading 42．(1分)A．risk B．trouble C．awareness D．influence 43．(1分)A．affect B．reduce C．restrict D．lengthen 44．(1分)A．calm B．patient C．interested D．confident 45．(1分)A．natural B．chemical C．effective D．common 46．(1分)A．invented B．promoted C．transformed D．launched 47．(1分)A．service B．shelf C．working D．survival 48．(1分)A．sold B．approved C．made D．tested 49．(1分)A．change B．restore C．replace D．absorb 50．(1分)A．rely on B．apply for C．give up D．cut out 51．(1分)A．abuse B．gain C．refuse D．tolerate 52．(1分)A．wealth B．identity C．health D．reputation 53．(1分)A．wine B．produce C．waste D．food 54．(1分)A．passion B．talent C．style D．personality 55．(1分)A．profitable B．sustainable C．attractive D．innovative 四、语法填空 （本题15分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 China has conducted its first hot-water drilling (钻探) test in East Antarctica, 56(1.5分) (reach) a record depth of 3,413 meters and surpassing the previous international record for the excavation (挖掘) method. Polar hot water drilling is used to study Earth’s former environmental changes, predict future climate trends, 57(1.5分) explore the limits of life. Compared with traditional mechanical ice drilling, it can penetrate (穿透) deeper and more efficiently while causing minimal disturbance to the ice, making it 58(1.5分) (easy) to access subglacial lakes and the bases of ice shelves. 59(1.5分) (previous), the record depth reached by hot water drilling was 2,540 meters. 60(1.5分) part of the 42nd Chinese Antarctic Expedition, the test demonstrated the application of a deep ice-sheet hot-water drilling system in Antarctica. By penetrating the ice sheet above the region’s Qilin Subglacial Lake, 61(1.5分) is named for the mythical Chinese creature, the operation established a channel for future 62(1.5分) (observe) of the lake, as well as water and sediment collection. Beyond the drilling test, the expedition is also advancing the construction and system optimization of China’s Qinling Station, 63(1.5分) Antarctic research station. China dispatched its first Antarctic expedition team in November 1984 64(1.5分) (conduct) comprehensive scientific research in Antarctica and the South Pacific.

His signature cry, “Behold, the golden light!” followed by a three-tap strike on the wooden stage, was the signal for heroes to arrive. The New Year’s Eve show was a promise he had never broken until now. Li Ming, a high school student who’s good with technology, deeply respected the craft. He often watched Grandpa Chen repairing the puppets’ silver-jointed arms and legs. The most important part was the Monkey King’s main joint — a detailed piece that balanced the magic stick. “Technology is cold,” Grandpa Chen often said. “It cannot feel the heartbeat of the art.” Disaster struck the night before the festival. A fierce wind shut the window, knocking the Monkey King to the floor. The key joint broke. Once broken, the delicate joint couldn’t be repaired. Carving a new one by hand would take days — far too late for the next day’s show. Grandpa Chen’s eyes were filled with despair. “Without this joint, the hero can’t move,” he whispered. “The stage must stay dark.” He went back into his room, leaving the pieces behind, as if it was meant to happen. Li Ming couldn’t let the tradition disappear. He carefully gathered the pieces, determined to prove that technology could serve the heart rather than replace it. Using his 3D printer and a tough 3D-printing material, he spent the night making a replacement. It wasn’t a perfect copy, but he hoped it was flexible enough to keep the puppet moving naturally. However, as he looked at the slightly see-through joint, he wondered if the old master would ever let a lifeless plastic piece touch his beloved hero. Paragraph 1: With the newly printed resin (合成树脂) joint in hand, Li Ming knocked on Grandpa Chen’s door hours before the performance. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The festival crowd gathered in silence, staring at the dark stage, until the familiar warm glow of the oil lamp shone. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Look at the robot, sing and dance.

He was probably the first in the middle ages to believe that we must learn science by experimenting on the things around us. Galileo, however, who lived more than three hundred years later, was the greatest of several great men in italy, france, germany or england. They began to show how many important truths could be discovered by experiment. Before the time of gallio learned men believed that large bodies fall more rapidly towards the earth and small ones, because aristotle said so. But gallio going to the top of the leaning tower of pizza in italy, let fall two unequal stones, and proved aristotle was wrong. IT is galileos spirit of going direct to nature and proving our opinions and theories by experiment that has LED to all the great discoveries of modern science. Hello, everyone.

C．Aristotle. 19．(1.5分)Where did Galileo carry out his experiment? A．In France. B．In England. C．In Italy. 20．(1.5分)What is the main purpose of this talk? A．To introduce the development of modern science. B．To show the importance of scientific experiment. C．To list the discoveries by some great scientists. 【答案】18．B 19．C 20．B 【原文】 Hello, everyone. Today my speech is aimed at people who are interested in science. The rise of modern science may be considered to date as far back as the time of Roger Bacon who lived between the years 1214 and 1292. He was probably the first in the Middle Ages to believe that we must learn science by experimenting on the things around us. Galileo, however, who lived more than 300 years later, was the greatest of several great men. In Italy, France, Germany, or England, they began to show how many important truths could be discovered by experiment. Before the time of Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fall more rapidly towards the earth than small ones, because Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, let fall two unequal stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It is Galileo’s spirit of going direct to Nature, and proving our opinions and theories by experiment, that has led to all the great discoveries of modern science. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Choosing to use an electric vehicle (EV) is exciting, but what about paying? Here are the four most common payment choices.Contactless Payments Contactless payments are perfect for drivers in a hurry. With contactless payments, you just tap your phone, and charging starts right away. Operators charge drivers small extra fees, and contactless payments don’t offer discounts.App-Based Payments For home charging users, the apps make it easy to track and manage home charging costs. For operators, app-based systems enable you to collect driver behavior data to improve station performance. New drivers might find the app download and account setup a bit troublesome. The phone signal is necessary for users.Card Payments For older drivers or those who prefer traditional payment methods, card payments are very accessible. For those operators, card readers are easy to set up and maintain and they’re a great alternative if contactless or app systems go wrong. Card payments carry small service fees. Also, card readers need regular care to prevent damage.PnC Payments In a PnC (Plug & Charge) EV charging process, charging starts once you plug in. Plug & Charge payments are linked to a contract (合同) associated with the vehicle and enabled by ISO 15118 using digital certificates. A great EV charger payment system should make charging easier for both drivers and operators. These four payment methods are ready for you to choose from and backed by our round-the-clock after-sales service. 21．(2.5分)Which payment method needs mobile phone signal? A．Contactless Payments. B．Card Payments. C．App-Based Payments. D．PnC Payments. 22．(2.5分)What do Contactless Payments and Card Payments have in common? A．They are suitable for hurried drivers. B．A contract is associated with vehicles. C．Small extra fees are charged to drivers. D．They need regular care against damage. 23．(2.5分)Where is the text probably taken from? A．An online blog. B．An advertisement. C．A science report. D．A fashion magazine. 【答案】21．C 22．C 23．B 【导语】文章介绍了电动汽车充电桩四种主流支付方式，分别说明各类支付方式的优缺点。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据App-Based Payments部分“The phone signal is necessary for users.(用户必须有手机信号才能使用。)”可知，基于应用程序的支付方式需要手机信号。 22．细节理解题。根据Contactless Payments部分“Operators charge drivers small extra fees, and contactless payments don’t offer discounts.(运营商会向驾驶者收取少量额外手续费，并且非接触式支付不提供折扣优惠。)”以及Card Payments部分“Card payments carry small service fees.(刷卡支付会产生少量服务费。)”可知，两种支付方式的共同点是都会向使用者收取小额费用。 23．推理判断题。根据最后一段“These four payment methods are ready for you to choose from and backed by our round-the-clock after-sales service.(这四种支付方式可供您选择，并且配备我们全天候售后服务。)”可知，文章带有产品推介、宣传的性质，属于广告文体。 （本题10分）What if you could use the plastic waste littering your home country to help solve its housing crisis? For architect Oscar Andrés Méndez and his business partner, electronics engineer Isabel Cristina Gámez, that inspiration led to an invention. Their Colombia-based company, Conceptos Plásticos, transforms plastic, including bags, snack-food containers, and shampoo bottles, into a modular building system of bricks and columns. The Lego-like blocks are made of about 95 percent plastic; builders only need to supply a roof and windows. A typical two-bedroom house recovers some six tons of plastic and can be built in about five days at a cost of anywhere from 4,000 to 7,000 — far cheaper than traditional construction. The structures are also earthquake-resistant, fireproof, and durable. Initially, Conceptos Plásticos partnered with private companies to build houses and schools in Colombia. Years ago, they learned from UNICEF’s representative in Côte d’Ivoire about plastic waste blocking drains and the shortage of schools in the country. Visiting Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, they were moved to see women carrying children while collecting plastic for little pay. “We have the solution,” Méndez remembers thinking. Conceptos Plásticos had the technology. They just needed to share it. As part of a three-million-dollar deal with UNICEF, Conceptos Plásticos built a new factory in Abidjan and hired workers, mainly women, to source the plastic needed. So far, over 4,000 tons of plastic have been transformed into more than 550 classrooms. The effort has created a circular economy (循环经济) that removes waste from the environment, improves the educational system by way of well-designed buildings, and creates jobs. Méndez and Gámez are now negotiating a similar school project in Ethiopia and investigating how to build bathrooms in poor areas in South Sudan. To share their technology in places where building new factories may present challenges, the partners recently designed a smaller version of their system that can be transported in a 40-foot container. It may run on waste, but the concept is not just beautiful but brilliant. 24．(2.5分)What can be learned about Méndez and Gámez’s invention? A．It supplies roofs and windows. B．It creates new plastic materials. C．It turns waste into treasure. D．It improves builders’ safety. 25．(2.5分)Which of the following can best describe Conceptos Plásticos’ product? A．Flexible and free. B．Time-consuming but green. C．Labour-intensive but cheap. D．Economical and sustainable. 26．(2.5分)What does the specific data in Paragraph 4 imply? A．The scale of plastic waste. B．The impact of the project. C．The efforts made by local government. D．The challenges Conceptos Plásticos faced. 27．(2.5分)What is the author’s attitude toward the project of Conceptos Plásticos? A．Doubtful but tolerant. B．Positive and admiring. C．Critical but objective. D．Uncertain and unconcerned. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 27．B 【导语】本文讲述的是Méndez和Gámez发明用塑料垃圾建造房屋的技术，帮助解决住房问题，已在科特迪瓦建起550多间教室，该项目经济环保且具有社会效益。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“What if you could use the plastic waste littering your home country to help solve its housing crisis?(如果你能用散落在祖国的塑料垃圾来帮助解决住房危机呢？)”以及“ Their Colombia-based company, Conceptos Plásticos, transforms plastic, including bags, snack-food containers, and shampoo bottles, into a modular building system of bricks and columns.( 他们位于哥伦比亚的公司Conceptos Plásticos将塑料包括塑料袋、零食容器和洗发水瓶等转化为由砖块和柱子组成的模块化建筑系统。)”可知，他们的发明将原本造成污染的塑料垃圾变成了有用的建筑材料，即变废为宝。 25．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“A typical two-bedroom house recovers some six tons of plastic and can be built in about five days at a cost of anywhere from 4,000 to 7,000-far cheaper than traditional construction.(一栋典型的两居室住宅可回收约六吨塑料并且大约五天就能建成，成本在4000到7000之间——比传统建筑便宜得多。)”可知，其产品具有经济性；同时结合第一段“ Their Colombia-based company, Conceptos Plásticos, transforms plastic, including bags, snack-food containers, and shampoo bottles, into a modular building system of bricks and columns.(他们位于哥伦比亚的公司Conceptos Plásticos将塑料包括塑料袋、零食容器和洗发水瓶等转化为由砖块和柱子组成的模块化建筑系统。)”可知，该产品是环保且可持续的。D选项“Economical and sustainable.(经济且可持续)”符合题意。 26．推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“So far, over 4,000 tons of plastic have been transformed into more than 550 classrooms. The effort has created a circular economy (循环经济) that removes waste from the environment, improves the educational system by way of well-designed buildings, and creates jobs.(到目前为止，已有超过4000吨的塑料被转化成了550多间教室。这一努力创造了一个循环经济，不仅从环境中清除了废物，还通过设计精良的建筑改善了教育系统，并创造了就业机会。)”可知，这些具体的数据(4000吨塑料、550间教室等)旨在说明该项目在环保、教育和就业等方面产生的巨大影响。 27．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“It may run on waste, but the concept is not just beautiful but brilliant.(它可能依靠废物运转，但这个概念不仅美好，而且非常绝妙。)”可知，作者对该项目持积极和赞赏的态度。B选项“Positive and admiring.(积极且赞赏的)”符合题意。 （本题10分）Back in the 1970s, psychologist J. P. Guilford conducted a well-known experiment to study creativity known widely as the nine-dot puzzle. He challenged research subjects to connect all nine dots with merely four straight lines, without lifting their pencils off the paper. Most volunteers limited their attempts within the invisible square formed by the dots. Only one fifth of the participants managed to break out of the boundary and extend their lines into the blank space surrounding the dots. The fact that four fifths of participants were effectively blinded by the boundaries of the square led Guilford to draw a sweeping conclusion: creativity demands people to break conventional limits, or go outside the box. This viewpoint quickly gained massive popularity and went viral. Soon afterwards, specialists focusing on creative ability began teaching business managers this way to think outside the box. The concept became so mainstream that few scholars bothered to test the original experimental data. That was until two separate research groups carried out follow-up tests: Clarke Burnham & Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba & Robert Weisberg. Both research teams adopted identical experimental settings and split volunteers into two groups. The first group received exactly the same requirements as participants in Guilford’s original research. The second group was clearly informed that the valid solution required drawing lines beyond the imaginary square formed by the dots. Guess what? The final result was surprising: merely 25 percent of the second group worked out the puzzle. From a statistical perspective, this tiny 5-percent rise in success rates is insignificant, as this can be attributed to random sampling error. We can analyze this unexpected outcome further. Successfully finishing this task literally requires participants to step outside the preset boundary. Yet giving clear, explicit guidance brought no improvement to participants’ performance. That is, straightforward and clear instructions to think outside the box did not help. That this advice is useless should effectively have killed off the much widely spread — and therefore, much more dangerous — metaphor that out-of-the-box thinking boosts creativity. After all, this simple follow-up research proved that the popular connection between out-of-bound thinking and creativity is a misconception without solid basis. 28．(2.5分)What did Guilford observe in his nine-dot puzzle experiment? A．Visual perception. B．Theoretical knowledge. C．Thinking patterns. D．Practical experience. 29．(2.5分)What was the purpose of the two teams’ follow-up research? A．To gather supporting evidence. B．To examine the catchy concept. C．To overturn the original conclusion. D．To popularize Guilford’s viewpoint. 30．(2.5分)Which of the following best characterizes the follow-up experiment? A．Revealing. B．Complicated. C．Controversial. D．Groundless. 31．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Creative Thinking: A Deadly Trap B．Puzzle Solving: A Key to Creativity C．Thinking Outside the Box: A False Link D．Nine-Dot Puzzle: A Classic Test of Creativity 【答案】28．C 29．B 30．A 31．C 【导语】文章主要介绍Guilford九点谜题实验得出“跳出盒子思考”激发创造力，后续实验却证明该流行观点缺乏可靠依据。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Back in the 1970s, psychologist J. P. Guilford conducted a well-known experiment to study creativity known widely as the nine-dot puzzle. He challenged research subjects to connect all nine dots with merely four straight lines, without lifting their pencils off the paper. Most volunteers limited their attempts within the invisible square formed by the dots. Only one fifth of the participants managed to break out of the boundary and extend their lines into the blank space surrounding the dots.(早在20世纪70年代，心理学家J. P. Guilford开展了一项著名的创造力研究实验，也就是广为人知的九点谜题实验。他要求实验对象只用四条直线连接全部九个点，且铅笔不能离开纸面。大多数志愿者都把自己的尝试局限在这些圆点所构成的无形方框内。仅有五分之一的受试者能够突破这一边界，将线条延伸到圆点周围的空白区域。)”和第二段中“The fact that four fifths of participants were effectively blinded by the boundaries of the square led Guilford to draw a sweeping conclusion: creativity demands people to break conventional limits, or go outside the box.(五分之四的受试者实际上被方框的边界所束缚，基于这一事实，Guilford得出一个笼统的结论：创造力要求人们打破固有局限，也就是“跳出盒子思考”。)”可知，Guilford观察人们解决九点谜题时的思维模式。 29．推理判断题。根据第二段中“The concept became so mainstream that few scholars bothered to test the original experimental data. That was until two separate research groups carried out follow-up tests: Clarke Burnham & Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba & Robert Weisberg.(该理念变得十分主流，几乎没有学者费心去检验原始实验的数据。直到两个独立的研究小组开展了后续验证实验：Clarke Burnham与Kenneth Davis小组，以及Joseph Alba与Robert Weisberg小组。)”可知，两个研究团队后续实验的目的是检验这个流行的观点。 30．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Yet giving clear, explicit guidance brought no improvement to participants’ performance.(然而给出清晰明确的指导并没有提升参与者的表现。)”可知，后续实验揭示原有流行认知的错误，即“跳出思维定式”没有多大用处，因此具有启发性。 31．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第四段中“After all, this simple follow‑up research proved that the popular connection between out‑of‑bound thinking and creativity is a misconception without solid basis.(毕竟，这项简单的后续研究证明，跳出边界思考与创造力之间广为人知的联系是没有可靠依据的错误观念。)”可知，文章核心论点是否定“跳出框框”与创造力之间的关联，指出这是一种错误的联系。C选项“Thinking Outside the Box: A False Link(跳出框框：一种错误的联系)”准确概括了文章主旨，适合作本文标题。 （本题10分）A robot inspired by desert tumbleweeds (风滚草) may become a new generation of energy-efficient explorers rolling into future disaster zones. “The inspiration struck me on a windy winter afternoon along the shores of Lake Neuchâtel,” said Sanjay Manoharan. “I was watching kite surfers use the wind to carve beautiful arcs (弧线) and achieve effortless lifts. Yet, I realized nature had already perfected this art long before us.” The tumbleweed is famous for its efficiency. Despite appearing like a seemingly random mass of twigs (细枝), the plants use wind to travel large distances and spread seeds as moving along on their journeys. In fact, they work so well that ecologists are trying to control them due to their tendency to turn into wildfire risks. Manoharan and his research group investigated how the plant moves so easily, despite generating more air resistance than a solid ball. The results revealed an unexpected, previously undocumented structural feature of tumbleweeds: the plant remains are spongier on the “top” than they are on their “bottom”. “In the upright position, the upper half, being porous, allowed airflow to pass through freely. In contrast, the lower half was tightly packed and thus offered greater resistance,” the study’s authors explained. Scientists included these findings in a robotic design printed using 3D laser molding. Their creation named HERMES was far more efficient than either natural tumbleweeds or artificial balls. In field testing, HERMES successfully moved through sharp slopes. During maze tests, it used 48 percent less energy than a robot requiring constant control, and finished the maze 37 percent faster. With additional advancements and small adjustments, robots like HERMES could one day be sent into dangerous disaster zones, deadly minefields, and even on windy neighboring planets like Mars. 32．(2.5分)Why are ecologists attempting to control tumbleweeds? A．Because they tend to cause fires. B．Because they spread seeds too quickly. C．Because they look like a random mass of twigs. D．Because they travel too fast and block paths. 33．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “porous” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Solid. B．Holey. C．Soft. D．Thick. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn about HERMES? A．It requires no energy to operate. B．It demands constant human control. C．It performs better in energy use and speed. D．It has the same structure as natural tumbleweeds. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the text? A．HERMES: An Energy-Efficient Robot in Use B．HERMES: A Nature-Inspired Robot for Future Explorations C．Tumbleweeds: A Wind-Driven Traveler That Spreads Seeds D．Tumbleweeds: A Natural Model for Energy-Efficient Design 【答案】32．A 33．B 34．C 35．B 【导语】主要介绍科研人员受风滚草结构启发，研发出高效节能的HERMES机器人，介绍其优势并展望其未来勘探应用前景。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In fact, they work so well that ecologists are trying to control them due to their tendency to turn into wildfire risks. (事实上，它们繁殖扩散效果极佳，以至于生态学家正尝试管控它们，因为它们容易成为野火隐患。)”可知，生态学家想要管控风滚草，是因为这类植物容易引发火灾。 33．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“In the upright position, the upper half, being porous, allowed airflow to pass through freely. In contrast, the lower half was tightly packed and thus offered greater resistance. (在直立状态下，植株上半部分呈 porous，可让气流自由通过。相比之下，下半部分结构紧实，空气阻力更大。)”可知，该词与“tightly packed and thus offered greater resistance (结构紧实、阻力大)”形成对比，结合气流可自由通过的语境可推断，该词意为“多孔透气的”，与Holey意义相近。 34．细节理解题。根据第五段中的“During maze tests, it used 48 percent less energy than a robot requiring constant control, and finished the maze 37 percent faster. (在迷宫测试中，它比需要持续操控的机器人节能百分之四十八，完成迷宫任务的速度快百分之三十七。)”可知，HERMES机器人在能耗控制和运行速度上表现更优异。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是首段中的“A robot inspired by desert tumbleweeds (风滚草) may become a new generation of energy-efficient explorers rolling into future disaster zones. (一款受沙漠风滚草启发的机器人或许能成为新一代节能探测装置，奔赴未来各类受灾区域。)”可知，文章围绕仿生风滚草机器人HERMES展开，介绍其研发灵感、性能优势与未来勘探用途，所以“HERMES: A Nature-Inspired Robot for Future Explorations (HERMES：一款取材自然、面向未来探测任务的机器人)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 （本题12.5分）Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation (调控) to security monitoring. A sudden power failure is more than a simple inconvenience. It can shut down your heating, cut off your network, and even leave your security system blind all at once. 36(2.5分) One of the benefits of a portable power station is the comfort it brings when the power fails. Imagine a storm hits, and suddenly, your heater or air conditioning shuts off. With a power station, you can keep essential devices running. 37(2.5分) This makes it quieter, cleaner, easier to maintain, and more suitable for indoor use. Being able to control appliances via Wi-Fi is one of the hallmarks of modern smart homes. However, if the power goes down, you lose access to that connectivity. Even if the power comes back in a few minutes, some of your appliances may not work properly after a forced restart. 38(2.5分) That way, you won’t lose connectivity during a blackout (停电). If you’ve invested in solar panels or another renewable energy source, a portable power station can be an excellent way to store energy. When the sun is shining, any extra energy generated by your solar panels can be stored in the portable power station. 39(2.5分) 40(2.5分) An entire security system will become blind without stable power. So if you want to make sure your system is fully functional during a blackout, you’d better have a portable power station as backup power. A．Don’t count on backup batteries for security. B．It powers your home when solar panels stop working. C．A portable power station can keep your Wi-Fi running. D．A portable power station can prevent such interruptions. E．Security systems require nonstop power to stay effective. F．Internal batteries in some devices disable Wi-Fi to conserve energy. G．Unlike traditional generators, the portable power station runs on batteries. 【答案】36．D 37．G 38．C 39．B 40．E 【导语】文章介绍了便携式储能电站的多重优势：停电时保障基础设备运转；对比传统发电机更适合室内；维持无线网络；储存太阳能；还可以作为安防系统的备用电源。 【详解】36．前文“Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation to security monitoring. A sudden power failure is more than a simple inconvenience. It can shut down your heating, cut off your network, and even leave your security system blind all at once. (如今，智能设备几乎管理着家居生活的方方面面，从温度调控到安全监控。突发停电带来的不只是不便。它会关闭供暖设备、切断网络，甚至会让安防系统瞬间失灵。)”指出突发停电会导致供暖中断、断网、安防系统失效等一系列问题，D项“A portable power station can prevent such interruptions. (便携式电站可以避免这类中断。)”承接前文问题，引出后文便携式电站的优势，符合语境。 37．后文“This makes it quieter, cleaner, easier to maintain, and more suitable for indoor use. (这使得它更安静、洁净、易于维护，也更适合室内使用。)”提到这让它更安静、洁净、易维护且更适合室内使用，G项“Unlike traditional generators, the portable power station runs on batteries. (与传统发电机不同，便携式电站依靠电池运行。)”解释了该设备具备这些优势的原因，逻辑衔接紧密。 38．前文“Being able to control appliances via Wi-Fi is one of the hallmarks of modern smart homes. However, if the power goes down, you lose access to that connectivity. Even if the power comes back in a few minutes, some of your appliances may not work properly after a forced restart. (能够通过无线网络操控家电是现代智能家居的一大标志。然而一旦停电，网络连接就会中断。哪怕几分钟后恢复供电，部分电器在强制重启之后也可能无法正常工作。)”说明停电会断网，设备强制重启后可能无法正常工作，后文“That way, you won’t lose connectivity during a blackout. (这样，停电期间你就不会失去网络连接。)”提到这样停电时就不会断网，C项“A portable power station can keep your Wi-Fi running. (便携式电站可以维持你的无线网络运行。)”承上启下，符合逻辑。 39．前文“If you’ve invested in solar panels or another renewable energy source, a portable power station can be an excellent way to store energy. When the sun is shining, any extra energy generated by your solar panels can be stored in the portable power station. (如果你已经安装太阳能板或者其他可再生能源设备，便携式储能电站是很好的储能工具。阳光充足时，太阳能板产生的多余电能可以储存在便携式储能电站中。)”介绍了便携式电站搭配太阳能板储电的功能，B项“It powers your home when solar panels stop working. (当太阳能板停止工作时，它可以为你的家供电。)”承接前文储存多余太阳能的内容，说明储电的作用。 40．后文“An entire security system will become blind without stable power. So if you want to make sure your system is fully functional during a blackout, you’d better have a portable power station as backup power. (没有稳定电源，整套安防系统就会彻底失效。因此，如果你希望安防系统在停电期间正常运转，最好配备便携式储能电站作为备用电源。)”指出整个安防系统没有稳定电力就会失效，E项“Security systems require nonstop power to stay effective. (安防系统需要不间断供电才能保持正常运作。)”作为段首主题句，引出后文安防系统需要便携式电站作为备用电源的内容。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）David and Natasha became friends with a shared love of fitness and healthy eating.

With an ambitious goal of developing a 45 preservative, they bought mushroom stems (梗) from farmers who would otherwise throw them away. Seven years later, in 2023, their company 46 mushroom-fiber extract. When added to food products, it helps increase their 47 life without leaving a noticeable taste. The product is now being 48 by wine factories in New Zealand. “If it works, it can 49 the added sulfites (亚硫酸盐) that wine makers 50 right now for a longer shelf life,” says Brown. Grapes naturally produce sulfite, so the extra can be too much for some people to 51 .

His signature cry, “Behold, the golden light!” followed by a three-tap strike on the wooden stage, was the signal for heroes to arrive. The New Year’s Eve show was a promise he had never broken until now. Li Ming, a high school student who’s good with technology, deeply respected the craft. He often watched Grandpa Chen repairing the puppets’ silver-jointed arms and legs. The most important part was the Monkey King’s main joint — a detailed piece that balanced the magic stick. “Technology is cold,” Grandpa Chen often said. “It cannot feel the heartbeat of the art.” Disaster struck the night before the festival. A fierce wind shut the window, knocking the Monkey King to the floor. The key joint broke. Once broken, the delicate joint couldn’t be repaired. Carving a new one by hand would take days — far too late for the next day’s show. Grandpa Chen’s eyes were filled with despair. “Without this joint, the hero can’t move,” he whispered. “The stage must stay dark.” He went back into his room, leaving the pieces behind, as if it was meant to happen. Li Ming couldn’t let the tradition disappear. He carefully gathered the pieces, determined to prove that technology could serve the heart rather than replace it. Using his 3D printer and a tough 3D-printing material, he spent the night making a replacement. It wasn’t a perfect copy, but he hoped it was flexible enough to keep the puppet moving naturally. However, as he looked at the slightly see-through joint, he wondered if the old master would ever let a lifeless plastic piece touch his beloved hero. Paragraph 1: With the newly printed resin (合成树脂) joint in hand, Li Ming knocked on Grandpa Chen’s door hours before the performance. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The festival crowd gathered in silence, staring at the dark stage, until the familiar warm glow of the oil lamp shone. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: With the newly printed resin joint in hand, Li Ming knocked on Grandpa Chen’s door hours before the performance. He hesitated for a moment, then told Grandpa Chen the whole story nervously and presented the printed joint. Grandpa Chen picked it up carefully and examined it closely, still doubting whether the man-made part could work well. He fitted the joint onto the Monkey King puppet tentatively. To his amazement, the puppet moved flexibly and naturally, with no difference from the original one. He looked at Li Ming with a mixture of surprise and relief. Paragraph 2: The festival crowd gathered in silence, staring at the dark stage, until the familiar warm glow of the oil lamp shone. Grandpa Chen gave his usual three taps and shouted his signature line. The lively shadow puppetry show began immediately, and the Monkey King performed wonderfully, earning bursts of applause. After the show, Grandpa Chen smiled at Li Ming warmly. He came to understand that technology was not a rival to traditional art, but a powerful way to protect and pass on precious folk culture. 【导语】本文以陈爷爷的皮影戏传承与李明的技术助力为线索展开，讲述了老镇最后一位皮影戏大师陈爷爷，在除夕演出前不慎损坏孙悟空皮影关键关节、陷入绝望，高中生李明利用3D打印技术制作替换关节，帮助陈爷爷完成演出，让陈爷爷领悟到技术可助力传统艺术传承的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段写李明拿着3D打印的关节上门，忐忑说明情况，陈爷爷试探安装后，发现关节灵活好用，既惊讶又释然。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段写演出顺利开始，孙悟空皮影表现出色，赢得掌声，陈爷爷向李明表示认可，领悟到技术与传统艺术可相辅相成。 2. 续写线索：上门送关节——试探安装——关节合用——演出开始——皮影出彩——领悟道理 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①展示：present/show ②检查：examine/check 情绪类 ①惊讶：amazement/surprise ②释然：relief/relaxation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Grandpa Chen picked it up carefully and examined it closely, still doubting whether the man-made part could work well.
