They carefully improved articles for The Ditch Weekly — a seasonal newspaper entirely written and edited by 13-to-17-year-olds — tightening awkward sentences and changing adjectives to perfect their first issue of the year. Fifteen-year-old editor Billy Stern monitored progress using a color-coded planning document on his computer, which tracked completed articles including features on local summer camps and the construction of a new hospital on a former baseball field. Turning to his 15-year-old friend Teddy Rattray, the paper’s best columnist (专栏作者), he sought ideas for an upcoming restaurant review. ‌“We still haven’t done hot dogs,” Teddy suggested with a smile. The operation has grown significantly smoother since the boys launched their newspaper last year. Billy initially sought a summer job more challenging than his usual work at a food truck, and after publishing 10 successful issues last summer, the team continued this year — plotting their comeback during English class discussions and late-night FaceTime calls. Now with a staff of 20 teenagers, their ambitious goals include distributing (分配) 2,000 weekly copies funded entirely through local advertising. Determined to maintain complete independence from parental involvement, they have a deeper mission: to encourage young people to disconnect from screens and revive (复苏) the print journalism. Though launching a print publication amid (处于……状况中) industry-wide decline might seem unconventional, Billy conducted thorough research before launching in 2023. After giving up ideas like beach food vending, he asked printers for production costs and studied The Star’s advertising rates to create a practical business model. ‌“The numbers worked out,” he noted confidently. Despite ongoing industry challenges, The Ditch Weekly has achieved remarkable profits. While declining to reveal exact figures, the paper says staff writers earn $50-$70 per article, with weekly printing costs averaging $9,000. 24．(2.5分)The author uses the example of ‌“tracking completed articles with a color-coded document” in Paragraph 2 mainly to ______. A．highlight Billy’s organizational skills B．criticize inefficient editing processes C．compare teenage and adult work habits D．explain the newspaper’s digital transition 25．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes Billy Stern based on the passage? A．Impractical. B．Ambitious. C．Cautious. D．Stubborn. 26．(2.5分)What do the teenagers emphasize in running The Ditch Weekly? A．Parental financial support for printing costs. B．Digital expansion over print distribution. C．Complete independence and community impact. D．Maximizing profits for personal gain. 27．(2.5分)What is the main idea of the passage? A．The decline of traditional print media in New York. B．Challenges faced by young businessmen in media. C．The history of student-run newspapers in the United States. D．Teenagers’ innovative approach to independent journalism. （本题10分）Huangmei Opera artist Han Zaifen works to revive a traditional art. As the daughter of a Huangmei Opera performer, she made her first performance at 10 years old in 1978. From that point on, her career has become closely connected with the art’s development. But Huangmei Opera’s path has not been easy. Like many traditional Chinese art forms, it has struggled against the pull of modern fun and digital media. Some productions failed to connect with modern life. Younger audiences lost interest and left. Meanwhile, low pay and limited career chances drove performers elsewhere. In order to revive the art form, Han has been working to strengthen its foundation (基础). Under her leadership, the city of Anqing in Anhui established a range of facilities to support the development of Huangmei Opera. Yet basic facilities alone are not enough. “In 2010, I realized that without generations of newcomers, our mission could not continue,” Han said. Therefore, for nearly seven years after assuming her teaching post, she gave up acting in new shows for herself, focusing mainly on training students. As college head of the Huangmei Opera Arts College at Anqing Normal University, she personalizes training programs based on each student’s strengths — whether voice quality, or acting style — encouraging them to develop unique artistic identities while mastering the classical plays. Breaking with the opera world’s long-standing rules, where lead roles traditionally go to senior performers, Han introduces what she calls an “everyone can be the lead” model. Her dreams go beyond China. On July 3, 2025, Han led her team in a flash performance at Frankfurt’s Römer Square in Germany. She sang excerpts (片段) from familiar operas. People were attracted. “It is not easy to find a lifelong love,” she said. “I was fortunate to find this calling, and I have never left it.” 28．(2.5分)What difficulty did Huangmei Opera face? A．Poor performance. B．Fixed rules of classical plays. C．Limited training chances. D．Competition from digital media. 29．(2.5分)Why did Han stop acting in new shows for seven years? A．To build more theaters. B．To develop young talent. C．To update classical plays. D．To enter the foreign market. 30．(2.5分)What is special about Han’s training model? A．Creating new acting styles. B．Giving seniors the lead roles. C．Focusing on individual gifts. D．Simplifying classical operas. 31．(2.5分)Which of the following can best describe Han Zaifen? A．Determined. B．Generous. C．Humorous. D．Independent. （本题10分）Online short-form video has shifted from a light distraction to a constant background in many children’s lives. What used to fill a spare moment now shapes how young people relax and communicate, with platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts drawing in millions through endlessly personalized feeds. While these apps offer fun and connection, their design encourages long periods of rapid scrolling that can be difficult for young users to manage. Short-form videos are engineered to capture the brain’s desire for novelty, with each swipe (滑动) promising something different. Because the feed rarely pauses, the natural breaks that help attention reset disappear. Over time, this constant stimulation (刺激) can weaken self control and sustained focus, creating a cycle that is hard to break. Sleep is one of the clearest areas where this causes harm. The bright light from screens delays sleep, while the emotional highs and lows of rapid content make it difficult for the brain to settle. Beyond sleep disturbances, the constant stream of peer images can lead to comparison. Pre-teens may internalize unrealistic standards of popularity and appearance, causing lower self-respect and anxiety. Younger children are especially at risk due to less mature self-regulation and a more fragile sense of identity. This consumption pattern matters because childhood is a critical period for learning how to tolerate boredom and handle uncomfortable feelings. When every quiet moment is filled with quick entertainment, children lose chances to practice daydreaming, invent games, or simply let their thoughts wander. Unstructured time is essential for young minds to learn how to calm themselves and develop internal focus. Fortunately, there are encouraging signs of change. Governments and schools begin to address digital wellbeing more directly. At home, establishing simple family rules, such as keeping devices out of bedrooms, can protect sleep and reduce late-night scrolling. With thoughtful support, responsive policies, and safer platform design, children can enjoy these videos without harming their wellbeing or development. 32．(2.5分)How does short-form video affect attention according to the text? A．It trains self-control. B．It removes natural breaks. C．It adds longer pauses. D．It satisfies the need for novelty. 33．(2.5分)What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The impact of sleep loss. B．The anxiety of peer comparison. C．The risk of identity crisis. D．The harm of constant stimulation. 34．(2.5分)What does the author imply about unstructured time? A．It increases screen dependency. B．It benefits children’s development. C．It should be replaced by activities. D．It is less important than schooling. 35．(2.5分)What does the author suggest to improve children’s digital wellbeing? A．Making videos more engaging. B．Restricting device use at home. C．Adopting a multi-party approach. D．Leaving device rules to schools. （本题12.5分）Judging a Book by Its Cover The English idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover” is a metaphor. It means one should not judge the worth or value of something by its outward appearance alone. 36(2.5分) I agree that you shouldn’t judge a book only by its cover, but please don’t ignore the cover either. The cover is the all-important first impression. Everything on that cover, front and back, is purposefully designed to persuade you to buy and read the book. 37(2.5分) From the cover you learn the title and author, either of which might be enough to convince you to read it. There’s also a plot summary on the back, and maybe some reviews. The cover picture, colors, and font (字体) style all give a potential reader an idea of what the book is about. As an author, I recognize the need for an impressive cover. Several years ago, I published Under the Almond Trees. 38(2.5分) I wanted color rather than black and white, though. I was very happy with the result. Later, though, I realized something was missing. I liked the blue sky, the blossoms on the trees, the color of the font, but the feel just didn’t scream, “Pick me up!” 39(2.5分) I remember telling her that I liked the design, but something was off. Her resulting design was similar. The almond trees were still there, as was the horse and cart. The colors and font were better. It was nothing I could have described, but the new cover was breathtaking. It was even a finalist in a cover design competition. So whether you are told to judge a book by its cover or not, I know such judging occurs. A potential reader decides whether to pick up a book or not based on the cover information. 40(2.5分) A．So I hired a different designer to undo it. B．But the proverb doesn’t tell the whole story. C．In fact, many authors underestimate the cover design. D．Therefore, it’s important to remember that the cover matters. E．The cover is only part of the book, but it’s an important part. F．A truly great story, however, will always succeed regardless of its cover. G．I asked a cover designer to use an old photo as the model for the cover. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Several years ago, Adam Kaye was hosting a family barbecue at his home when his mother, Marti Kaye, broke the news.

Though her speech was 45 to one-syllable (单音节) words that made little sense, Marti would whistle as her 57-year-old son played her favorite songs. 46 , she still knew the tunes of the songs she had listened to 70 years ago. When Adam played for her, this sweet moment allowed him to take a 47 at the woman he had known in his entire life.

Adam decided to make it a 51 to keep posting more recordings. “Marti’s 52 has been destroyed, but the pathway to music remains clear, along which we are able to maintain our 53 ,” Adam said. “I believe it would definitely excite Marti to 54 our experience and motivate others.

White Rabbit, 56(1.5分) (launch) in 1959, has long been a household name in China. It was born in an era of material shortage, when sweets were a rare luxury. Although the times have improved, its packaging has remained 57(1.5分) (virtual) unchanged. The wrapper, 58(1.5分) (feature) a seated white rabbit against a red background, won a national packaging award in 1983 and now draws millions of views overseas. On platform X, a post 59(1.5分) (receive) about 6 million views and 260,000 likes since. Shi Anbin, 60(1.5分) professor from Tsinghua University, linked the trend 61(1.5分) what he described as a broader movement, in which young people overseas have embraced traditional Chinese practices. He argued that original Chinese designs can bridge both generational and cultural divides. Zhang Di, from Renmin University of China, 62(1.5分) (strike) a more practical note. He attributed the wrapper’s appeal to its visual language — bold colors and simple composition , 63(1.5分) requires no specific cultural knowledge for interpretation. He added that short-term online buzz does not guarantee lasting market recognition. Product 64(1.5分) (fundamental) — taste, quality, convenience and adaptability — are what ultimately keep customers. He advised heritage brands to use any current attention to study target markets 65(1.5分) , accordingly, adjust their offerings. 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）假定你是李华，你校英语社举办的“毕业留念”短视频大赛已圆满结束。你的参赛作品深受同学喜爱。请你给活动负责人Eric写一封信，申请将你的视频在校内平台进行展播，内容包括： （1）视频内容；（2）申请理由。 注意: （1）写作词数应为80左右；（2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Eric, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 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。 Lila watched crowds of students gather around a school notice saying the school radio station needed a second host. Butterflies filled her stomach — she had always dreamed of being a campus host. The radio station was hugely popular. It played music, delivered school notices and fun programmes for all students to listen to at lunchtime. Hazel, the main host, was confident and talented, deeply admired by everyone. In contrast, Lila was born shy and got nervous speaking in public. Still, she decided to give it a try, though one classmate made fun of her: “You? You can’t even read aloud in class without stumbling (磕磕绊绊)!” Not discouraged, Lila read her textbooks aloud every evening to practise. At first she paused and misread words often, yet gradually her reading and pronunciation improved greatly. She even borrowed public speaking books from the library too. While her classmates chatted happily, she focused on improving her skills steadily. The interview finally came. Holding the cold microphone, Lila’s hands turned sweaty. She performed perfectly on the prepared text after countless practice, but failed badly in the improvised (即兴的) part. “Sir, I’ve practised for months and will keep trying hard if given a chance,” she begged hopefully. Mr. Brooks smiled gently. “I admire your determination and fine reading ability, but live broadcasts are full of surprises: delayed guests, broken microphones and unexpected calls. You must move listeners with genuine feelings instead of just reciting scripts (稿). Your weakness lies not in your voice or hard work; you know nothing about how a live show works. Go and learn from an experienced host.” No one passed the interview. Everyone left except Lila. Reflecting on his words, she realized her biggest fear was unexpected moments. Rather than feeling defeated, she gained a clear goal: she would observe how Hazel fixed mistakes and filled awkward silences on air. Suddenly it struck her — she could work as an assistant on the radio team to learn how to become a qualified host. 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。 She asked Mr. Brooks for permission and took up minor work at the station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One day, Hazel suddenly fell ill and couldn’t host the program. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试——Unit 1 The Mass Media（较难版01） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What are the speakers mainly talking about?

They carefully improved articles for The Ditch Weekly — a seasonal newspaper entirely written and edited by 13-to-17-year-olds — tightening awkward sentences and changing adjectives to perfect their first issue of the year. Fifteen-year-old editor Billy Stern monitored progress using a color-coded planning document on his computer, which tracked completed articles including features on local summer camps and the construction of a new hospital on a former baseball field. Turning to his 15-year-old friend Teddy Rattray, the paper’s best columnist (专栏作者), he sought ideas for an upcoming restaurant review. ‌“We still haven’t done hot dogs,” Teddy suggested with a smile. The operation has grown significantly smoother since the boys launched their newspaper last year. Billy initially sought a summer job more challenging than his usual work at a food truck, and after publishing 10 successful issues last summer, the team continued this year — plotting their comeback during English class discussions and late-night FaceTime calls. Now with a staff of 20 teenagers, their ambitious goals include distributing (分配) 2,000 weekly copies funded entirely through local advertising. Determined to maintain complete independence from parental involvement, they have a deeper mission: to encourage young people to disconnect from screens and revive (复苏) the print journalism. Though launching a print publication amid (处于……状况中) industry-wide decline might seem unconventional, Billy conducted thorough research before launching in 2023. After giving up ideas like beach food vending, he asked printers for production costs and studied The Star’s advertising rates to create a practical business model. ‌“The numbers worked out,” he noted confidently. Despite ongoing industry challenges, The Ditch Weekly has achieved remarkable profits. While declining to reveal exact figures, the paper says staff writers earn $50-$70 per article, with weekly printing costs averaging $9,000. 24．(2.5分)The author uses the example of ‌“tracking completed articles with a color-coded document” in Paragraph 2 mainly to ______. A．highlight Billy’s organizational skills B．criticize inefficient editing processes C．compare teenage and adult work habits D．explain the newspaper’s digital transition 25．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes Billy Stern based on the passage? A．Impractical. B．Ambitious. C．Cautious. D．Stubborn. 26．(2.5分)What do the teenagers emphasize in running The Ditch Weekly? A．Parental financial support for printing costs. B．Digital expansion over print distribution. C．Complete independence and community impact. D．Maximizing profits for personal gain. 27．(2.5分)What is the main idea of the passage? A．The decline of traditional print media in New York. B．Challenges faced by young businessmen in media. C．The history of student-run newspapers in the United States. D．Teenagers’ innovative approach to independent journalism. 【答案】24．A 25．B 26．C 27．D 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了以比利·斯特恩为首的一群青少年，在纽约创办并运营一份完全由13-17岁年轻人撰稿和编辑的独立季节性报纸《The Ditch Weekly》的故事，展示了他们在数字时代对纸媒的探索、坚持独立运营的决心以及展现出的企业家精神。 【详解】24．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Fifteen-year-old editor Billy Stern monitored progress using a color-coded planning document on his computer, which tracked completed articles including features on local summer camps and the construction of a new hospital on a former baseball field.(15岁的编辑比利·斯特恩(Billy Stern)在电脑上使用颜色编码的规划文件来监控进度，该文件跟踪已完成的文章，包括关于当地夏令营和在以前的棒球场上新建医院的专题报道)”可知，作者通过描述比利使用彩色编码文件跟踪文章进度，主要是为了展现作为青少年编辑的比利·斯特恩在组织和项目管理方面的能力。故选A项。 25．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Now with a staff of 20 teenagers, their ambitious goals include distributing (分配) 2,000 weekly copies funded entirely through local advertising.(现在，他们拥有20名青少年员工，雄心勃勃的目标包括每周发行2000份，资金全部来自当地广告)”以及第五段中“After giving up ideas like beach food vending, he asked printers for production costs and studied The Star’s advertising rates to create a practical business model.(在放弃海滩食品销售等想法后，他向印刷商询问生产成本，并研究了《星报》的广告费率，以创建一个可行的商业模式)”可知，比利不仅有远大的目标，还通过实际行动来实现这些目标，体现出了他的雄心壮志。故选B项。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段中“Determined to maintain complete independence from parental involvement, they have a deeper mission: to encourage young people to disconnect from screens and revive (复苏) the print journalism.(他们决心保持完全独立，不依赖父母，他们有一个更远大的使命：鼓励年轻人远离屏幕，复兴印刷新闻业)”可知，青少年在运营《The Ditch Weekly》时强调完全独立和对社区(特别是年轻人)的影响。故选C项。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“On a Saturday morning, five teenage reporters filed into a busy New York office, red pens in hand, for a two-hour working session. They carefully improved articles for The Ditch Weekly — a seasonal newspaper entirely written and edited by 13-to-17-year-olds — tightening awkward sentences and changing adjectives to perfect their first issue of the year.(一个周六的早晨，五名青少年记者手持红笔，鱼贯步入繁忙的纽约办公室，开始了为期两小时的工作会议。他们正为《The Ditch Weekly》精心修改稿件——这份季节性报纸完全由13至17岁的青少年撰稿编辑。通过精炼生硬的句子、调整形容词，他们将共同完善本年度的首期报纸)”以及文章后续描述他们如何创办、运营这份独立报纸，并实现盈利和扩大影响可知，文章主要讲述了一群青少年如何创新地创办并独立运营一份实体报纸，展现了年轻一代对新闻业的热情和探索。故D项“Teenagers’ innovative approach to independent journalism. (青少年对独立新闻业的创新探索)”能概括文章主旨。故选D项。 （本题10分）Huangmei Opera artist Han Zaifen works to revive a traditional art. As the daughter of a Huangmei Opera performer, she made her first performance at 10 years old in 1978. From that point on, her career has become closely connected with the art’s development. But Huangmei Opera’s path has not been easy. Like many traditional Chinese art forms, it has struggled against the pull of modern fun and digital media. Some productions failed to connect with modern life. Younger audiences lost interest and left. Meanwhile, low pay and limited career chances drove performers elsewhere. In order to revive the art form, Han has been working to strengthen its foundation (基础). Under her leadership, the city of Anqing in Anhui established a range of facilities to support the development of Huangmei Opera. Yet basic facilities alone are not enough. “In 2010, I realized that without generations of newcomers, our mission could not continue,” Han said. Therefore, for nearly seven years after assuming her teaching post, she gave up acting in new shows for herself, focusing mainly on training students. As college head of the Huangmei Opera Arts College at Anqing Normal University, she personalizes training programs based on each student’s strengths — whether voice quality, or acting style — encouraging them to develop unique artistic identities while mastering the classical plays. Breaking with the opera world’s long-standing rules, where lead roles traditionally go to senior performers, Han introduces what she calls an “everyone can be the lead” model. Her dreams go beyond China. On July 3, 2025, Han led her team in a flash performance at Frankfurt’s Römer Square in Germany. She sang excerpts (片段) from familiar operas. People were attracted. “It is not easy to find a lifelong love,” she said. “I was fortunate to find this calling, and I have never left it.” 28．(2.5分)What difficulty did Huangmei Opera face? A．Poor performance. B．Fixed rules of classical plays. C．Limited training chances. D．Competition from digital media. 29．(2.5分)Why did Han stop acting in new shows for seven years? A．To build more theaters. B．To develop young talent. C．To update classical plays. D．To enter the foreign market. 30．(2.5分)What is special about Han’s training model? A．Creating new acting styles. B．Giving seniors the lead roles. C．Focusing on individual gifts. D．Simplifying classical operas. 31．(2.5分)Which of the following can best describe Han Zaifen? A．Determined. B．Generous. C．Humorous. D．Independent. 【答案】28．D 29．B 30．C 31．A 【导语】文章主要介绍了黄梅戏艺术家韩再芬深耕黄梅戏领域，面对黄梅戏受现代娱乐和数字媒体冲击、发展困境重重的现状，通过搭建基础设施、培育青年人才、创新培养模式等方式振兴黄梅戏，并积极推动黄梅戏走向国际的事迹。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据原文第二段“Like many traditional Chinese art forms, it has struggled against the pull of modern fun and digital media.(和许多中国传统艺术形式一样，它在现代娱乐和数字媒体的冲击下举步维艰。)”可知，黄梅戏面临的困境来自数字媒体的竞争与冲击。 29．细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Therefore, for nearly seven years after assuming her teaching post, she gave up acting in new shows for herself, focusing mainly on training students.(因此，在任职教学岗位后的近七年时间里，她放弃了出演新剧目，主要专注于培养学生。)”可知，韩再芬七年不参演新剧目，是为了培养黄梅戏青年人才。 30．细节理解题。根据原文第四段“As college head of the Huangmei Opera Arts College at Anqing Normal University, she personalizes training programs based on each student’s strengths — whether voice quality, or acting style — encouraging them to develop unique artistic identities while mastering the classical plays.(作为安庆师范大学黄梅戏艺术学院院长，她根据学生的嗓音、表演风格等个人优势制定个性化培养方案，鼓励学生在掌握经典剧目的同时，打造独特的艺术特色。)”可知，韩再芬的培养模式特色在于因材施教，关注学生的个人天赋。 31．推理判断题。根据原文第一段“As the daughter of a Huangmei Opera performer, she made her first performance at 10 years old in 1978. From that point on, her career has become closely connected with the art’s development.(作为黄梅戏演员的女儿，她于1978年10岁时首次登台演出。从那时起，她的职业生涯便与这门艺术的发展紧密相连。)”及第三段“Therefore, for nearly seven years after assuming her teaching post, she gave up acting in new shows for herself, focusing mainly on training students.(因此，在任职教学岗位后的近七年时间里，她放弃了出演新剧目，主要专注于培养学生。)”等内容可知，韩再芬数十年坚守黄梅戏事业，直面行业困境，潜心育人、推广国粹，始终坚守初心践行传承使命，由此可以推断出，她是一个意志坚定的人。 （本题10分）Online short-form video has shifted from a light distraction to a constant background in many children’s lives. What used to fill a spare moment now shapes how young people relax and communicate, with platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts drawing in millions through endlessly personalized feeds. While these apps offer fun and connection, their design encourages long periods of rapid scrolling that can be difficult for young users to manage. Short-form videos are engineered to capture the brain’s desire for novelty, with each swipe (滑动) promising something different. Because the feed rarely pauses, the natural breaks that help attention reset disappear. Over time, this constant stimulation (刺激) can weaken self control and sustained focus, creating a cycle that is hard to break. Sleep is one of the clearest areas where this causes harm. The bright light from screens delays sleep, while the emotional highs and lows of rapid content make it difficult for the brain to settle. Beyond sleep disturbances, the constant stream of peer images can lead to comparison. Pre-teens may internalize unrealistic standards of popularity and appearance, causing lower self-respect and anxiety. Younger children are especially at risk due to less mature self-regulation and a more fragile sense of identity. This consumption pattern matters because childhood is a critical period for learning how to tolerate boredom and handle uncomfortable feelings. When every quiet moment is filled with quick entertainment, children lose chances to practice daydreaming, invent games, or simply let their thoughts wander. Unstructured time is essential for young minds to learn how to calm themselves and develop internal focus. Fortunately, there are encouraging signs of change. Governments and schools begin to address digital wellbeing more directly. At home, establishing simple family rules, such as keeping devices out of bedrooms, can protect sleep and reduce late-night scrolling. With thoughtful support, responsive policies, and safer platform design, children can enjoy these videos without harming their wellbeing or development. 32．(2.5分)How does short-form video affect attention according to the text? A．It trains self-control. B．It removes natural breaks. C．It adds longer pauses. D．It satisfies the need for novelty. 33．(2.5分)What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The impact of sleep loss. B．The anxiety of peer comparison. C．The risk of identity crisis. D．The harm of constant stimulation. 34．(2.5分)What does the author imply about unstructured time? A．It increases screen dependency. B．It benefits children’s development. C．It should be replaced by activities. D．It is less important than schooling. 35．(2.5分)What does the author suggest to improve children’s digital wellbeing? A．Making videos more engaging. B．Restricting device use at home. C．Adopting a multi-party approach. D．Leaving device rules to schools. 【答案】32．B 33．D 34．B 35．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了短视频对儿童注意力、睡眠、自我认知等方面的负面影响，以及改善儿童数字健康的方法。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第二段“Short-form videos are engineered to capture the brain’s desire for novelty, with each swipe (滑动) promising something different. Because the feed rarely pauses, the natural breaks that help attention reset disappear. (短视频旨在捕捉大脑对新奇事物的渴望，每次滑动都预示着不同的东西。因为信息流很少暂停，帮助注意力重置的自然休息时间就消失了。)”可知，短视频让帮助注意力重置的自然休息时间消失了。 33．主旨大意题。根据第三段“Over time, this constant stimulation (刺激) can weaken self control and sustained focus, creating a cycle that is hard to break. Sleep is one of the clearest areas where this causes harm. (随着时间的推移，这种持续的刺激会削弱自我控制和持续的注意力，形成一个难以打破的循环。睡眠是受到这种伤害最明显的领域之一。)”以及“Beyond sleep disturbances, the constant stream of peer images can lead to comparison. (除了睡眠障碍外，源源不断的同龄人形象会导致比较。)”可知，本段主要介绍了持续的刺激带来的危害。 34．推理判断题。根据第四段“Unstructured time is essential for young minds to learn how to calm themselves and develop internal focus. (无组织的时间对于年轻的心灵学习如何让自己平静下来和发展内在的注意力是至关重要的。)”可知，无组织的时间对孩子的成长是有益的。 35．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Governments and schools begin to address digital wellbeing more directly. At home, establishing simple family rules, such as keeping devices out of bedrooms, can protect sleep and reduce late-night scrolling. With thoughtful support, responsive policies, and safer platform design, children can enjoy these videos without harming their wellbeing or development. (政府和学校开始更直接地解决数字健康问题。在家里，建立简单的家庭规则，比如把电子设备放在卧室外面，可以保护睡眠，减少深夜滚动。有了周到的支持、响应性的政策和更安全的平台设计，孩子们就可以享受这些视频，而不会损害他们的健康或发展。)”可知，作者建议政府、学校和家庭多方合作来改善孩子的数字健康。 （本题12.5分）Judging a Book by Its Cover The English idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover” is a metaphor. It means one should not judge the worth or value of something by its outward appearance alone. 36(2.5分) I agree that you shouldn’t judge a book only by its cover, but please don’t ignore the cover either. The cover is the all-important first impression. Everything on that cover, front and back, is purposefully designed to persuade you to buy and read the book. 37(2.5分) From the cover you learn the title and author, either of which might be enough to convince you to read it. There’s also a plot summary on the back, and maybe some reviews. The cover picture, colors, and font (字体) style all give a potential reader an idea of what the book is about. As an author, I recognize the need for an impressive cover. Several years ago, I published Under the Almond Trees. 38(2.5分) I wanted color rather than black and white, though. I was very happy with the result. Later, though, I realized something was missing. I liked the blue sky, the blossoms on the trees, the color of the font, but the feel just didn’t scream, “Pick me up!” 39(2.5分) I remember telling her that I liked the design, but something was off. Her resulting design was similar. The almond trees were still there, as was the horse and cart. The colors and font were better. It was nothing I could have described, but the new cover was breathtaking. It was even a finalist in a cover design competition. So whether you are told to judge a book by its cover or not, I know such judging occurs. A potential reader decides whether to pick up a book or not based on the cover information. 40(2.5分) A．So I hired a different designer to undo it. B．But the proverb doesn’t tell the whole story. C．In fact, many authors underestimate the cover design. D．Therefore, it’s important to remember that the cover matters. E．The cover is only part of the book, but it’s an important part. F．A truly great story, however, will always succeed regardless of its cover. G．I asked a cover designer to use an old photo as the model for the cover. 【答案】36．B 37．E 38．G 39．A 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了“不要以貌取人”这句谚语在图书领域的应用，作者通过个人经历论证了封面设计对图书的重要性，指出封面虽不是全部，但却是影响读者决策的重要部分。 【详解】36．根据上文“The English idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover” is a metaphor. It means one should not judge the worth or value of something by its outward appearance alone. (英语习语“不要以貌取人”是一个比喻的说法。其含义是，人们不应仅仅根据事物的外表来评判其价值或意义)”可知，文章开篇引出谚语及其含义，和下文“I agree that you shouldn’t judge a book only by its cover, but please don’t ignore the cover either.(我同意不能仅仅根据封面来评判一本书，但同时也不应忽视封面的作用)”可知，作者表示部分赞同并提出转折观点，故空格处需起到承上启下的作用。B选项“But the proverb doesn’t tell the whole story.(但这个谚语并没有说明全部真相)”中的“But“形成语义转折，一方面承接了谚语本身，另一方面自然地引出了作者认为该观点不全面的论述，为下文的展开奠定了基调。故选B。 37．根据上文“The cover is the all-important first impression. Everything on that cover, front and back, is purposefully designed to persuade you to buy and read the book.(封面是至关重要的第一印象。封面的正反两面所呈现的一切，都是经过精心设计的，目的是为了说服你购买并阅读这本书)”可知，强调封面的重要性，结合下文“From the cover you learn the title and author, either of which might be enough to convince you to read it. There’s also a plot summary on the back, and maybe some reviews. The cover picture, colors, and font (字体) style all give a potential reader an idea of what the book is about.(从封面上，你可以了解到书名和作者，这两者中的任何一个都可能足以让你决定去阅读这本书。封底上还有一段简短的故事情节概述，或许还有一些书评。封面图片、颜色和字体风格都能让潜在读者对这本书的内容有个大致的了解)”可知，下文具体列举封面提供的各类信息，是对空格处观点的详细阐释和例证。E选项“封面只是书的一部分，但它是重要的一部分”精准地概括了该段的核心思想。“only part”与“important part”的转折结构，与上文“shouldn’t only… but don’t ignore…”的逻辑完美呼应，且“important part”是下文细节的总述。故选E。 38．根据下文“I wanted color rather than black and white, though. I was very happy with the result. (我想要彩色而不是黑白，并对结果很满意)”可推知，空格处需要描述一个让作者最初感到满意的、具体的封面设计决策。G选项“我要求封面设计师使用一张老照片作为封面的模型”明确交代了封面的设计灵感来源，正是这一具体行动产生了让她初期满意的“result”。选项中的“cover designer”也与本段首句“an impressive cover”形成词汇关联。故选G。 39．根据上文“Later, though, I realized something was missing. I liked the blue sky, the blossoms on the trees, the color of the font, but the feel just didn’t scream, “Pick me up!”(不过后来我意识到有些东西是缺失的。我喜欢那湛蓝的天空、树上的花朵、字体的颜色，但那种感觉就是没有那种“选我吧！”的强烈召唤力)”和下文“I remember telling her that I liked the design, but something was off. Her resulting design was similar. The almond trees were still there, as was the horse and cart. The colors and font were better. It was nothing I could have described, but the new cover was breathtaking. It was even a finalist in a cover design competition.(我记得曾跟她说过我喜欢这个设计，但总觉得有些地方不太对劲。她最终完成的设计与我之前说的差不多。那些杏树还在，还有那匹马和马车。色彩和字体都更好了。这东西我根本无法用言语形容，但这个新封面实在太出色了。它甚至在封面设计比赛中获得了决赛入围资格)”可知，在发现不满后，作者采取了行动。A选项“所以我另雇了一位设计师来修正这个问题。”准确描述了这一关键举措。下文的“her”正是指代这位“different designer”。故选A。 40．根据上文“So whether you are told to judge a book by its cover or not, I know such judging occurs. A potential reader decides whether to pick up a book or not based on the cover information.(所以，无论是否有人告诉你要“以貌取人”，我知道这种判断行为确实存在。潜在的读者会根据封面的信息来决定是否拿起一本书)”可知，这是作者在结合自身经历后得出的最终结论。空格位于篇末，需要是一个总结性的句子。D选项“因此，记住封面至关重要”中的“Therefore”是强有力的总结性信号词，“the cover matters”精准地提炼并重申了全文的中心论点，与文章开头和中间的论述形成首尾呼应，有力地升华了主题。故选D。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Several years ago, Adam Kaye was hosting a family barbecue at his home when his mother, Marti Kaye, broke the news. At 71 years old, she realized that she was getting 41 , with friends’ names slipping her mind. Later, she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Watching his mother suffer, Adam was 42 . As a lifelong musician, he always enjoyed playing for her, who would 43 along. So every Sunday, Adam would 44 his guitar and make the short drive to visit his mother. Though her speech was 45 to one-syllable (单音节) words that made little sense, Marti would whistle as her 57-year-old son played her favorite songs. 46 , she still knew the tunes of the songs she had listened to 70 years ago. When Adam played for her, this sweet moment allowed him to take a 47 at the woman he had known in his entire life. Then he started to 48 their performances and posted the videos online, also offering himself something to 49 .

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.

Butterflies filled her stomach — she had always dreamed of being a campus host. The radio station was hugely popular. It played music, delivered school notices and fun programmes for all students to listen to at lunchtime. Hazel, the main host, was confident and talented, deeply admired by everyone. In contrast, Lila was born shy and got nervous speaking in public. Still, she decided to give it a try, though one classmate made fun of her: “You? You can’t even read aloud in class without stumbling (磕磕绊绊)!” Not discouraged, Lila read her textbooks aloud every evening to practise. At first she paused and misread words often, yet gradually her reading and pronunciation improved greatly. She even borrowed public speaking books from the library too. While her classmates chatted happily, she focused on improving her skills steadily. The interview finally came. Holding the cold microphone, Lila’s hands turned sweaty. She performed perfectly on the prepared text after countless practice, but failed badly in the improvised (即兴的) part. “Sir, I’ve practised for months and will keep trying hard if given a chance,” she begged hopefully. Mr. Brooks smiled gently. “I admire your determination and fine reading ability, but live broadcasts are full of surprises: delayed guests, broken microphones and unexpected calls. You must move listeners with genuine feelings instead of just reciting scripts (稿). Your weakness lies not in your voice or hard work; you know nothing about how a live show works. Go and learn from an experienced host.” No one passed the interview. Everyone left except Lila. Reflecting on his words, she realized her biggest fear was unexpected moments. Rather than feeling defeated, she gained a clear goal: she would observe how Hazel fixed mistakes and filled awkward silences on air. Suddenly it struck her — she could work as an assistant on the radio team to learn how to become a qualified host. 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。 She asked Mr. Brooks for permission and took up minor work at the station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One day, Hazel suddenly fell ill and couldn’t host the program. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文： She asked Mr. Brooks for permission and took up minor work at the station. She went to the studio every afternoon, quietly watching how Hazel dealt with every situation. Between shows, Lila helped organize music lists, reply to messages, and test equipment. At night, she trained speaking on random topics in front of a mirror, recording and reviewing her voice to find weak spots. She also asked Hazel many questions about fixing mistakes and filling awkward silences. Gradually, she grew more confident and quick-minded, ready for any surprise during a live broadcast. One day, Hazel suddenly fell ill and couldn’t host the program. Taking a deep breath, Lila stepped before the microphone. Though her heart pounded, she remembered Hazel’s tricks. She cracked a light joke to break the ice, smoothly filled a sudden dead air with an interesting fact, and calmly handled a caller’s awkward question. Her warm, natural voice and quick thinking won praise from listeners. By the end, Mr. Brooks gave her a thumbs-up. Lila smiled, knowing she had turned her biggest weakness into her greatest strength. 【导语】本文以莉拉对校园广播主持人的向往为线索展开，讲述了一个害羞的女孩通过努力和观察，最终克服恐惧、抓住机会实现梦想的故事。莉拉梦想成为校园广播主持人，但因性格内向和缺乏即兴能力而面试失败。在面试官的引导下，她决定先从助理做起，通过观察和学习积累经验，最终在主播因病缺席时成功替补，赢得认可。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她征得布鲁克斯先生的同意，在广播站做起了杂务。”可知，第一段可描写莉拉在广播站做助理期间，如何通过观察和实践学习主持技巧、提升自己的能力。 ②由第二段首句内容“一天，黑兹尔突然生病了，无法主持节目。”可知，第二段可描写莉拉临时代替黑兹尔主持节目，运用所学知识应对突发情况，最终获得成功。 2.续写线索：做助理观察学习——自我练习——询问请教——临时代班主持——冷静应对——获得赞扬——实现梦想 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①观察：watch/observe ②练习：train/rehearse ③处理：handle/deal with 情绪类 ①变得头脑更敏捷：grow more quick-minded/become more quick-witted ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] She went to the studio every afternoon, quietly watching how Hazel dealt with every situation.（运用了现在分词短语作状语，how引导宾语从句） [高分句型2] Though her heart pounded, she remembered Hazel’s tricks.（运用了由Though引导的让步状语从句） 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Have you seen the latest update on the school website?
