As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was math, which happened to be my weakest subject. I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my math teacher, Mr. Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my math struggles. During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academic subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. 24. Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first? A. Because of excitement and curiosity. B. Because of the school’s welcoming atmosphere. C. Because of good preparations for the new school. D. Because of fear of the unfamiliar environment. 25. Which words can best describe the English teacher? A. Generous and powerful. B. Responsible and patient. C. Inspiring and friendly. D. Outgoing and warm-hearted. 26. How did the author feel when entering the math class? A. Anxious. B. Excited. C. Relaxed. D. Confident. 27. What did the author learn from the first day of high school? A. High school is only about studying hard. B. Making friends is more important than studying. C. High school life is much easier than expected. D. High school is about both study and friendship-building. C Picture this: you win three tickets to a sold-out concert and excitedly text your friends to see if they would like to join you. Their reply? “Maybe.” Immediately, your excitement drops, for now you have to wait for their decisions before you can finalize your concert plans. If you’ve experienced something like this, you’re not alone. The “maybe” response to invitations is a common upset in social life. So, what’s going on when people aren’t sure how to refuse an invitation? What leads to this uncertain, awkward behavior? Researchers have found that people prefer saying “maybe” to saying “no” because of something called motivated reasoning (动机性推理), which happens when invitees（被邀请者） view information in a biased way to serve their own interests. In other words, receivers of an invitation make themselves believe that inviters want to hear a “maybe” because it helps them keep their choices open. Also, people often imagine that saying “no” will ruin the relationship, completely ignoring the possibility that honesty might be appreciated. However, there are situations where motivated reasoning fails, and people choose to say “no” directly. When invitees put themselves in the inviter’s shoes, they realize that a clear “no” is more helpful. Additionally, if the invitation holds no interest for them at all, they no longer feel the need to leave their options available. While saying “no” can be uncomfortable, being direct and clear is always the best policy. It may limit your choices, but it saves the inviter from uncertainty and helps protect the relationship. Next time a hot concert comes along, your friends will be even more likely to think of you first! 28. Why does the author mention the concert story in Paragraph 1? A. To encourage quick replies. B. To reflect common feelings. C. To introduce a social situation. D. To explain invitees’ motivation. 29. What does the underlined word “biased” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Positive B. Objective C. One-sided D. Reasonable 30. What makes invitees prefer a “no” in certain situations? A. Consideration for the inviter. B. Fear of ruining the relationship. C. Uncertainty about the invitation. D. Wishes to keep their choices open. 31. What is the author’s attitude toward saying “maybe” to an invitation? A. Supportive. B. Unclear. C. Disapproving. D. Indifferent. D Wearing noise-cancelling headphones (降噪耳机) to block out distractions has become increasingly common, especially among young people. However, recent studies suggest that the widespread use of these headphones has led to a significant rise in hearing issues. Upon further investigation, it was revealed（揭示） that the problem is not actually related to the ears but rather results from the brain. This condition, known as Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), occurs when the brain has difficulty in processing sounds or words, distinguishing them from background noise, which makes it difficult for individuals to engage in conversations in social situations or clearly hear instructions at work or school. While APD has historically been linked to childhood brain injury, ear infections, or genetic factors, experts now suggest that the rise in noise-cancelling headphones may be contributing to the condition. Although noise-cancelling headphones can be useful in protecting people from loud noises, experts believe they may untrain the brain’s ability to naturally block out background noise. Claire Benton from the British Academy of Audiology explained that by blocking everyday sounds like train noise or traffic, the brain might “forget” how to filter out distractions. It’s similar to relying too often on a crutch (拐杖)—just as leg muscles weaken from lack of use, constant use of noise-cancelling headphones may create an artificial environment, where the brain no longer practices filtering out distractions, making it harder to function naturally. “Those complex, high-level listening skills in your brain don’t fully develop until your late teens. If you have only been wearing noise-cancelling headphones during this crucial period, you may be slightly delaying your ability to process speech and noise,” explained Claire Benton. “Therefore, using them in moderation and occasionally exposing yourself to natural environments can help maintain the brain’s auditory processing abilities. The key lies in balance—protecting your hearing from harmful noises while still giving your brain opportunities to exercise its natural filtering abilities.” 32. What do recent studies find about noise-cancelling headphones? A. They are popular among young people. B. They can lead to serious hearing damage. C. They are more harmful than regular headphones. D. They can weaken the brain’s ability to process sound. 33. How do people with APD typically behave? A. They become intolerant of loud noises. B. They constantly hear sounds in their ears. C. They get easily distracted by background noises. D. They struggle to distinguish sounds in noisy environments. 34. Why does the author mention “crutch” in paragraph 3? A. To stress the risks of overusing noise-cancelling headphones. B. To show the necessity of blocking out loud noises in daily life. C. To state the reasons for inventing noise-cancelling headphones. D. To explain the working principle of noise-cancelling headphones. 35. What does Claire Benton want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. High-level listening skills are crucial for personal growth. B. Noise-cancelling headphones bring long-lasting threat to people. C. We should avoid relying too much on noise-cancelling headphones. D. Natural background noise has a negative impact on brain development. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Ways of Studying and Learning Efficiently Choose a quiet place to study without distractions. The more time you spend studying, the more you’ll learn and the better grades you’ll earn. ____36____ So remove all distractions (cell phones, television, loud / fast-paced music, and talkative friends / family members), to ensure a calm, focused environment. Take short breaks from studying. ____37____ So plan to take a 10-minute break after each hour. If you get stuck on a certain topic, that’s a good time to take a little break so you can come back refreshed. Set a timer on your phone or another device so a short 10-minute breather doesn’t turn into 30 minutes of delay. ____38____ Reading books that challenge you can expand your vocabulary and comprehension skills, which is useful when a teacher assigns linguistically (语言方面的) difficult texts. If you are not already an active reader, start at your level and work your way up. Study for quizzes and tests early. If you have a big test coming up, start studying a few days to a week before the test, or even when the test is announced. Make a study schedule, breaking up your time into sections, and stick to it. ____39____ Create mind maps of topics to help you learn new things. Mind-maps help you make connections between old and new information. ____40____ This practice is especially useful when you need to brainstorm ideas for big projects. To create a mind map, write the topic in the center, add lines that point in different directions, and write your ideas on top of the lines. A. Remind yourself of your goals to stay motivated. B. Read as much as you can to expand your vocabulary. C. Your brain needs time to rest and digest information. D. But the quality of your study time needs to be efficient. E. These connections provide new contexts so you remember facts better. F. Find time to study when most of your friends are doing something else. G. Studying the night before a test doesn’t allow you to fully absorb information. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Alice was a shy girl who found it difficult to make friends.

I was over the moon — I had only ever seen the Great Wall and the Forbidden City in books, and now I would actually get to walk through history! For weeks, I imagined the towering palaces, the red-and-gold gates, and the stories hidden in every corner. Finally, the day arrived, and there I was, standing in the heart of Beijing, staring up at the most magnificent buildings I had ever seen. The Forbidden City was even more incredible in real life. The golden roofs shone under the sun, the delicate carvings told silent tales of emperors and warriors, and the vast courtyards made me feel like I had stepped into a fairy tale. Every turn revealed something new — a dragon statue, a marble staircase, a hidden garden — and I couldn’t stop taking pictures, desperate to capture every detail. My parents laughed as I dragged them from one spot to another, insisting on yet another photo. The place was packed with（挤满了） tourists, all murmuring in different languages, their faces filled with the same amazement as mine. Some pointed at the architecture, others posed for pictures, and a few just stood quietly, taking it all in. The energy was infectious — everyone seemed to feel the magic of this ancient place. As the afternoon wore on, we followed the crowd toward the exit. The sea of people was overwhelming, and I, being small for my age, grasped my father's hand tightly, afraid to get lost in the rushing crowd. The noise, the heat, and the excitement made everything feel like a blur — until suddenly, I looked down at the large hand I was holding — the wrong watch, the wrong-colored ring. 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。 My blood turned to ice. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ There my father was, just three people away. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ( 1 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面五段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。are you free on saturday evening?

B High school,for most teenagers,is a space where new adventures and challenges begin.I clearly remember my first day of high school.As I entered the school gate,I was greeted by a crowd of students.The hallways were filled with talking and laughter.It was a lot to handle,and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean.I held my schedule tightly,trying to find the right classroom.My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English,and as I walked in,I spotted familiar faces from my previous school.I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat,surrounded by friendly smiles.My English teacher,Mrs.Johnson,introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable.She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas.The next class was math,which happened to be my weakest subject.I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom,but my math teacher,Mr.Smith,turned out to be very patient.He promised us that we would learn and improve together.His words of support made me feel more relaxed,and I began to believe that I could overcome my math struggles. During lunchtime,I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends.We shared stories and talked about our expectations for high school.It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn't just about academic subjects;it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes,faces,and experiences.My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety,joy,and the promise of new beginnings. 24.Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first? A.Because of excitement and curiosity. B.Because of the school's welcoming atmosphere C.Because of good preparations for the new school. D.Because of fear of the unfamiliar environment. 25.Which words can best describe the English teacher? A.Generous and powerful. B.Responsible and patient. C.Inspiring and friendly. D.Outgoing and warm-hearted. 26.How did the author feel when entering the math class? A.Anxious. B.Excited. C.Relaxed. D.Confident. 27.What did the author learn from the first day of high school? A.High school is only about studying hard. B.Making friends is more important than studying. C.High school life is much easier than expected. D.High school is about both study and friendship-building. Picture this:you win three tickets to a sold-out concert and excitedly text your friends to see if they would like to join you.Their reply?"Maybe."Immediately,your excitement drops,for now you have to wait for their decisions before you can finalize your concert plans. If you've experienced something like this,you're not alone.The "maybe"response to invitations is a common upset in social life.So,what's going on when people aren't sure how to refuse an invitation?What leads to this uncertain,awkward behavior? Researchers have found that people prefer saying "maybe"to saying "no"because of something called motivated reasoning(动机性推理)，which happens when invitees(被邀 view information in a biased way to serve their own interests.In other words, receivers of an invitation make themselves believe that inviters want to hear a "maybe" because it helps them keep their choices open.Also,people often imagine that saying "no"will ruin the relationship,completely ignoring the possibility that honesty might be appreciated. However,there are situations where motivated reasoning fails,and people choose to say "no"directly.When invitees put themselves in the inviter's shoes,they realize that a clear "no"is more helpful.Additionally,if the invitation holds no interest for them at all, they no longer feel the need to leave their options available. While saying "no"can be uncomfortable,being direct and clear is always the best policy.It may limit your choices,but it saves the inviter from uncertainty and helps protect the relationship.Next time a hot concert comes along,your friends will be even more likely to think of you first! 28.Why does the author mention the concert story in Paragraph 1? A.To encourage quick replies. B.To reflect common feelings C.To introduce a social situation. D.To explain invitees'motivation. 29.What does the underlined word "biased"mean in Paragraph 3? A.Positive B.Objective C.One-sided D.Reasonable 30.What makes invitees prefer a "no"in certain situations? A.Consideration for the inviter. B.Fear of ruining the relationship C.Uncertainty about the invitation. D.Wishes to keep their choices open. 31.What is the author's attitude toward saying "maybe"to an invitation? A.Supportive. B.Unclear. C.Disapproving.D.Indifferent. D Nearing noise-cancelling headphones（降噪耳机)to block out distractions has become increasingly common,especially among young people.However,recent studies suggest that the widespread use of these headphones has led to a significant rise in hearing issues.Upon further investigation,it was revealed()that the problem is not actually related to the ears but rather results from the brain. This condition,known as Auditory Processing Disorder(APD),occurs when the brain has difficulty in processing sounds or words,distinguishing them from background noise, which makes it difficult for individuals to engage in conversations in social situations or clearly hear instructions at work or school.While APD has historically been linked to childhood brain injury,ear infections,or genetic factors,experts now suggest that the rise in noise-cancelling headphones may be contributing to the condition. Although noise-cancelling headphones can be useful in protecting people from loud noises,experts believe they may untrain the brain's ability to naturally block out background noise.Claire Benton from the British Academy of Audiology explained that by blocking everyday sounds like train noise or traffic,the brain might "forget"how to filter out distractions.It's similar to relying too often on a crutch ()-just as leg muscles weaken from lack of use,constant use of noise-cancelling headphones may create an artificial environment,where the brain no longer practices filtering out distractions,making it harder to function naturally. "Those complex,high-level listening skills in your brain don't fully develop until your late teens.If you have only been wearing noise-cancelling headphones during this crucial period,you may be slightly delaying your ability to process speech and noise," explained Claire Benton."Therefore,using them in moderation and occasionally exposing yourself to natural environments can help maintain the brain's auditory processing abilities.The key lies in balance-protecting your hearing from harmful noises while still giving your brain opportunities to exercise its natural filtering abilities. 32.What do recent studies find about noise-cancelling headphones? A.They are popular among young people. B.They can lead to serious hearing damage. C.They are more harmful than regular headphones D.They can weaken the brain's ability to process sound 33.How do people with APD typically behave? A.They become intolerant of loud noises. B.They constantly hear sounds in their ears. C.They get easily distracted by background noises D.They struggle to distinguish sounds in noisy environments. 34.Why does the author mention "crutch"in paragraph 3? A.To stress the risks of overusing noise-cancelling headphones. B.To show the necessity of blocking out loud noises in daily life C.To state the reasons for inventing noise-cancelling headphones. D.To explain the working principle of noise-cancelling headphones. 35.What does Claire Benton want to tell us in the last paragraph? A.High-level listening skills are crucial for personal growth. B.Noise-cancelling headphones bring long-lasting threat to people C.We should avoid relying too much on noise-cancelling headphones. D.Natural background noise has a negative impact on brain development. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Ways of Studying and Learning Efficiently Choose a quiet place to study without distractions.The more time you spend studying,the more you'll learn and the better grades you'll earn._36So remove all distractions (cell phones,television,loud fast-paced music,and talkative friends family members),to ensure a calm,focused environment.

I was over the moon-I had only ever seen the Great Wall and the Forbidden City in books,and now I would actually get to walk through history! For weeks,I imagined the towering palaces,the red-and-gold gates,and the stories hidden in every comner.Finally,the day arrived,and there I was,standing in the heart of Beijing,staring up at the most magnificent buildings I had ever seen. The Forbidden City was even more incredible in real life.The golden roofs shone under the sun,the delicate carvings told silent tales of emperors and warriors,and the vast courtyards made me feel like I had stepped into a fairy tale.Every turn revealed something new-a dragon statue,a marble staircase,a hidden garden-and I couldn't stop taking pictures,desperate to capture every detail.My parents laughed as I dragged them from one spot to another,insisting on yet another photo. The place was packed with(挤满了)tourists,all murmuring in different languages,their faces filled with the same amazement as mine.Some pointed at the architecture,others posed for pictures,and a few just stood quietly,taking it all in.The energy was infectious-everyone seemed to feel the magic of this ancient place. As the afternoon wore on,we followed the crowd toward the exit.The sea of people was overwhelming,and I,being small for my age,grasped my father's hand tightly,afraid to get lost in the rushing crowd.The noise,the heat,and the excitement made everything feel like a blur-until suddenly,I looked down at the large hand I was holding -the wrong watch,the wrong-colored ring. 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。 My blood turned to ice.
