A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】Welcome to our program Fun Facts About Words. Today we are going to talk about two interesting names you may often meet in movies and news reports. I think you may have heard the names John Doe and Jane Doe before. They do not refer to real people. Instead, they are name replacements for someone whose real identity is unknown or needs to be kept secret. The story of John Doe dates back to 14th-century England. At that time, British lawyers needed imaginary names for land-related court cases. John Doe was created as a made-up name for one side of a property disagreement. Later, this custom was carried over to the United States legal system. As time went by, people needed a matching name for women. So Jane Doe appeared as the female form of John Doe. Today, the two names are widely used by police, hospitals and courts. John Doe stands for an unknown man, while Jane Doe means an unknown woman. They work much like the Chinese name “Zhang San”, a common way to talk about an ordinary, unnamed person. Though they started in Britain, the names are now far more popular in North American daily life. 第二部分 阅读（共两节, 满分50分） 第一节（共15小题, 每小题2.5分, 满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Bloomsbury Festival 2026: Volunteer with Us!

A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍2026年布鲁姆斯伯里艺术节的志愿者（活动引导员）招募信息、职责、培训及福利。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据What Will You Do部分中“Assisting box office staff with ticket checks and crowd management(协助票房工作人员进行检票和人群管理)”可知，活动引导员需要管理观众人流。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Training and Support部分中“September 23 (online): Introduction to the festival(9月23日(线上)：节日介绍)”可知，远程培训在9月23日。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“You are encouraged to indicate your areas of interest, and we will assign shifts based on your preferences.(鼓励你注明感兴趣领域，我们将根据你的偏好分配班次)”可知，班次依据志愿者声明的兴趣决定。 B Eryn Lawley, a 27-year-old politics graduate, once worked in a digital marketing job. Today, she stands at a workbench, carefully folding pages and sewing book spines (书脊) by hand as a bookbinding apprentice (装订学徒) — and she has never been happier. “It’s more satisfying and far less stressful than sitting in front of a screen all day,” she says. Lawley is part of a growing trend. As artificial intelligence affects white-collar jobs across nearly every sector, more young workers are seeking alternatives and more stable career paths in traditional crafts such as bookbinding, metalwork, and boatbuilding. For these workers, the appeal lies in work that is tangible, creative, and resistant to automation. The shift comes at a critical moment for Britain’s craft heritage. Paul Kidson, chief executive of Ludlow Bookbinders, estimates that fewer than 50 handicraft bookbinders remain in Britain today, a decline largely because formal apprenticeship collapsed in the 1980s. Yet interest is rebounding: Cox London, a craft workshop, received over 160 applications for just two apprenticeship places this year. Employers are taking notice. The Folio Society, a publisher of fine books, refuses to use AI in its creative processes. “Human craftsmanship is irreplaceable,” says chief executive Joanna Reynolds. The National Theatre similarly offers technical apprenticeships in traditional costume design. Kath Geraghty, head of technical qualifications, stresses the urgency of “plugging the skill gap” in these dying crafts and building a more representative workforce. For Lawley, the choice was simple. In an age of algorithms (算法) and automation, she found something AI cannot offer: the quiet pride of creating something lasting with her own hands. While no one can guarantee that technology will never reach even these hands-on trades, for now they provide a rare sense of purpose and security that digital jobs fail to deliver. 24. What led to Lawley leaving her digital marketing job? A. Health problems from long screen hours. B. High pressure and low job satisfaction. C. Her plan for a bookbinding business. D. The rise of AI marketing tools. 25. What does the example of Cox London mainly suggest? A. Young people have a preference for bookbinding. B. Traditional crafts are regaining popularity. C. The craft industry is facing a lack of labor. D. Job openings are abundant in the bookbinding trade. 26. Why are craft apprenticeships offered according to Kath Geraghty? A. To promote craftsmen’s efficiency. B. To reduce the cost of costume production. C. To compete with the Folio Society in publishing. D. To ease skill shortages and build a diverse workforce. 27. What’s the author’s attitude towards hands-on trades at present? A. Critical. B. Ambiguous. C. Favorable. D. Neutral. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Eryn Lawley转行做书籍装订学徒的故事，揭示了在人工智能冲击白领职业的背景下，越来越多年轻人转向传统手工艺行业，英国手工艺学徒制重新受到关注的现象。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“It’s more satisfying and far less stressful than sitting in front of a screen all day(这比整天坐在屏幕前要令人满足得多，压力也小得多)”可知，Lawley认为装订工作比整天面对屏幕更令人满足、压力更小，说明她离开数字营销工作是因为原工作压力大、满意度低。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“Yet interest is rebounding: Cox London, a craft workshop, received over 160 applications for just two apprenticeship places this year.(但兴趣正在回升：今年，一家名为Cox London的手工艺工作室仅两个学徒名额就收到了超过160份申请)”可知，Cox London今年两个学徒名额就收到160多份申请，说明传统手工艺重新受到欢迎。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Kath Geraghty, head of technical qualifications, stresses the urgency of “plugging the skill gap” in these dying crafts and building a more representative workforce.(技术资格主管Kath Geraghty强调，必须尽快“填补这些濒临消失的手艺技能缺口”，并培养更具代表性的劳动力)”可知，Kath Geraghty 强调提供学徒项目是为了填补这些濒危手工艺的技能缺口，并建立更具代表性的劳动力队伍。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In an age of algorithms (算法) and automation, she found something AI cannot offer: the quiet pride of creating something lasting with her own hands. While no one can guarantee that technology will never reach even these hands-on trades, for now they provide a rare sense of purpose and security that digital jobs fail to deliver.(在算法与自动化盛行的时代，她找到了人工智能无法提供的东西：亲手创造持久之物时那种宁静的自豪感。尽管无人能保证技术将来不会发展到甚至涵盖这些手工技艺，但目前它们仍为人们带来一种罕见的归属感和安全感，而这种感觉正是数字工作所无法给予的)”可知，作者认为手工行业目前能提供数字工作无法给予的目标感和安全感，因此对其持支持态度。 C For years, protein has enjoyed an almost unquestioned reputation as the nutrient of strength, fitness and healthy aging. Meat, eggs, milk, protein shakes and energy bars are often marketed to build muscle and maintain vitality. Yet a new study from the University of Wisconsin-Madison suggests that consuming more protein than the body needs may not always be beneficial, especially for those who seldom exercise. Researchers found a high-protein diet without regular exercise could lead to a distinct increase in body fat within four months. The result challenges the widespread assumption that extra protein automatically means better health. Professor Dudley Lamming, one of the researchers involved, warned that people taking large amounts of protein tend to suffer higher risks of serious conditions including cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular (心血管的) disease, and may even have a shorter lifespan. This does not mean protein itself is harmful. Instead, it is an essential nutrient of amino acids (氨基酸), which help the body build and repair muscles and support basic biological processes. The real question is not whether we should eat protein, but how much we need. Fitness-driven advertising floods consumers with “high-protein” products. Many take it for granted that more protein equals better health. However, large protein intake with little physical exercise may result in fat gain rather than fitness improvement, and long-term overconsumption carries potential health risks. As Lamming pointed out, most people today are relatively sedentary, which means they may already consume more protein than required. Individual protein needs vary with age, body size and activity level. Athletes need more protein, but unlimited intake is unreasonable. The key is matching intake to the body’s actual demands. For ordinary consumers, the message is not to fear protein, but to be more cautious about treating it as a nutritional cure-all. A balanced diet plus regular exercise matters more than chasing one popular nutrient. In nutrition, moderation counts most. 28. What’s the significance of the research finding? A. It proves protein’s vital role in muscle repair. B. It shows the link between obesity and high protein intake. C. It reveals the cause of many diseases. D. It offers new insights into protein intake. 29. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. People who exercise less need more protein. B. High-protein products are mainly intended for athletes. C. Fitness ads may mislead consumers about protein needs. D. Long-term overconsumption of protein has few health risks. 30. Which can replace the underlined word “sedentary” in paragraph 5? A. Inactive. B. Stressed. C. Self-centered. D. Energetic. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To remind readers to take protein accordingly. B. To introduce a treatment for heart diseases. C. To compare protein needs of different people. D. To advocate low-protein diets on a daily basis. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的一项新研究，指出超出身体所需的过量蛋白质摄入未必有益。文章纠正了大众“蛋白质越多越健康”的误区，提醒人们应当根据自身实际需求合理摄入蛋白质。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The result challenges the widespread assumption that extra protein automatically means better health.(这一结果挑战了普遍认为额外摄入蛋白质就自动意味着更好的健康状况的假设)”可知，这项研究挑战了大众普遍看法，与以往关于蛋白质摄入的观点不同。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段第二句和第三句“Fitness-driven advertising floods consumers with “high-protein” products. Many take it for granted that more protein equals better health.(健身类广告向消费者大量推销“高蛋白”产品。许多人理所当然地认为，蛋白质越多就代表健康越好)”可知，健身相关高蛋白产品广告铺天盖地，让很多消费者想当然认为蛋白质越多越健康。由此推断，这类广告可能误导消费者对蛋白质需求的认知。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“...which means they may already consume more protein than required(……这意味着他们可能已经摄入的蛋白质超过了所需量)”以及前文提到的“little physical exercise(少量的体育锻炼)”可推知，sedentary指“久坐的、缺乏运动的”，与inactive词义相近。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“The key is matching intake to the body’s actual demands.(关键在于将摄入量与身体的实际需求相匹配)”和最后一段“For ordinary consumers, the message is not to fear protein, but to be more cautious about treating it as a nutritional cure-all. A balanced diet plus regular exercise matters more than chasing one popular nutrient. In nutrition, moderation counts most.(对于普通消费者而言，关键信息不是要害怕蛋白质，而是要更谨慎地对待它，不要将其视为万能的营养补品。均衡饮食加上规律运动，比一味追求某种流行营养素更重要。在营养学中，适量最为重要)”可知，作者写作目的是提醒读者依据自身情况适量摄入蛋白质。 D For decades, scientists have debated whether the mother tongue merely serves as a communication tool or whether it physically shapes human brain structures. Modern brain-scan research suggests that languages acquired in early childhood build stable neural pathways (神经通路), affecting how people process visual information, sound signals and even logical thinking. Language appears to be built into the brain, not merely used by it. Researchers have found remarkable differences in the brains of language users. Those who speak alphabet-based languages mainly rely on the brain’s left hemisphere (左半球) to analyze sounds. In contrast, native Chinese speakers, who use logographic characters (表意文字), develop stronger connections between the brain’s two hemispheres. Their brains activate additional spatial-processing areas to recognize complicated character structures. Such brain features, formed through years of character recognition and writing practice, remain stable into adulthood and may influence learners’ future second-language acquisition. With the foundation of the above research, the assimilation theory (同化理论) states that the human brain tends to reuse the neural pathways built by the mother tongue when absorbing a new language. For instance, Chinese students learning English still employ the visual-spatial circuits formed by Chinese, even though English is an alphabet-based language. This theory may explain why second-language learning is often shaped by a learner’s first language. However, this theory faces challenges from other researchers. They argue that human brain flexibility has been overestimated. The basic language-related brain structures are largely predetermined by genes, and early language experience only slightly adjusts current neural systems rather than constructing brand-new pathways from scratch. Besides, the small size of previous research samples makes it risky to apply the conclusions to broader human populations. Overall, despite academic disagreements, scientists widely agree that one’s first language leaves lasting marks on the brain, forming part of the mental foundation through which we observe and interpret the world. In the classroom, this may mean building lessons around students’ first-language strengths. 32. What do we know about native Chinese speakers? A. They rely mainly on the left hemisphere to process sounds. B. They use spatial-processing areas for writing practice. C. Their brains are shaped more by genes than by learning. D. Their mother tongue enhances links between the two hemispheres. 33. What influences second-language learning according to the theory? A. Learners’ ability to handle new foreign sounds. B. Similarities between the first and second languages. C. Brand-new brain pathways constructed from nothing. D. Neural networks formed in learning one’s mother tongue. 34. What is a major weakness of the theory? A. It denies the flexibility of the brains. B. It overrates the mother tongue’s effect on the brains. C. It ignores the second-language learning environment. D. It fails to explain why the first language leaves lasting marks. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Debate Over Brain Flexibility B. The Genetic Roots of Language Ability C. How the Mother Tongue Shapes the Brains D. How the Brain Learns a Second Language 【答案】32. D 33. D 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述母语（尤其是早期习得的母语）如何塑造大脑神经结构，并影响后续第二语言的学习及相关学术争论。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In contrast, native Chinese speakers, who use logographic characters (表意文字), develop stronger connections between the brain’s two hemispheres.(相比之下，使用表意文字的汉语母语者，大脑两个半球之间发展出更强的连接)”可知，汉语母语者的母语增强了大脑两半球之间的联系。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“With the foundation of the above research, the assimilation theory (同化理论) states that the human brain tends to reuse the neural pathways built by the mother tongue when absorbing a new language. For instance, Chinese students learning English still employ the visual-spatial circuits formed by Chinese, even though English is an alphabet-based language. This theory may explain why second-language learning is often shaped by a learner’s first language.(在上述研究的基础上，同化理论认为，人脑在吸收一门新语言时，倾向于复用由母语建立的神经通路。例如，学习英语的中国学生仍然在使用由汉语形成的视觉—空间回路，即便英语是一门基于字母的语言。这一理论或许可以解释，为什么第二语言的学习往往会受到学习者第一语言的影响)”可知，影响第二语言学习的是学习母语时形成的神经网络。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“They argue that human brain flexibility has been overestimated. The basic language-related brain structures are largely predetermined by genes, and early language experience only slightly adjusts current neural systems rather than constructing brand-new pathways from scratch.(他们争辩说，人脑的灵活性被高估了。基本的语言相关大脑结构很大程度上是由基因预先决定的，而早期的语言经验只是轻微调整现有的神经系统，而不是从零开始构建全新的通路)”可知，该理论的弱点在于它高估了母语对大脑的改造作用，夸大了大脑可塑性。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，再根据第一段的“For decades, scientists have debated whether the mother tongue merely serves as a communication tool or whether it physically shapes human brain structures.(几十年来，科学家们一直在争论：母语仅仅是充当一种交流工具，还是它会在生理层面上塑造人类的大脑结构)”可知，全文围绕“母语是否以及如何塑造大脑结构”展开：首段提出母语塑造神经通路，二段对比中英大脑差异，三段讲同化理论（母语影响第二种语言），四段讲质疑，末段总结“母语在大脑留下持久印记”。故最佳标题为C项“母语如何塑造大脑(How the Mother Tongue Shapes the Brains)”。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分） 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Don’t Postpone Happiness Most of us don’t mean to delay joy. We tell ourselves we are being responsible: after this deadline, after the kids grow older, after I lose weight, after my anxiety eases. ____36____ But “later” is a moving target. If happiness is constantly scheduled for the future, the present becomes nothing more than an endless waiting room. From a psychological perspective, “postponing happiness” shows up in three patterns. One typical pattern is to treat time as a problem to solve, not life to experience. We treat our days like a productivity contest, treating time as something to optimize (优化) and joy as the prize at the end. ____37____. The last pattern confuses “being ready” with “being safe”. Yet there are practical ways to break free from this mindset. ____38____. This is not because money doesn’t matter, but because how we choose can reshape our daily experience. When our days are packed with various “should-do” obligations, happiness easily gets pushed aside. Try to “buy back one hour” every week. Pick one exhausting task you can hire someone to do. Devote this newly freed hour to activities that bring you inner fulfillment. For people caught up in endless mental planning, another helpful tool is staying grounded in the present. Mindfulness does not mean staying calm at all times. ____39____. A simple practice is “Naming the moment”. Set a 90-second timer, notice neutral facts in your surroundings, and identify one small pleasant detail you would normally miss. Remind yourself that these little moments matter too. We can also seek joy by noticing small moments in daily life. You can train yourself to taste small positive events in everyday life. Each day, pick one minor pleasant experience and replay it in your mind for 10-20 seconds. Reflect on what makes this small moment special to you. ____40____. A. Spending less can give us more freedom B. Many people mistake it for clearing the mind C. Prioritizing time over money offers one practical path D. We convince ourselves that a real fulfilling life lies ahead of us E. It is a skill to return to what is happening right at the moment F. Another is that we undervalue small positive moments in daily life G. Such reflection helps us value the present rather than seek joy in the future 【答案】36. D 37. F 38. C 39. E 40. G 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述“不要推迟幸福”，分析了推迟幸福的心理模式，并给出活在当下、重视小确幸等实用建议。 【36题详解】 上文“We tell ourselves we are being responsible: after this deadline, after the kids grow older, after I lose weight, after my anxiety eases.(我们告诉自己我们是在负责任：熬过这个截止日期后、等孩子们长大些后、等我减肥成功后、等我的焦虑缓解后)”说明人们习惯把幸福安排到未来的某个条件达成之后。空处和前文为顺接关系，进一步强化“幸福在别处”的心理暗示。D项“我们说服自己，真正充实的生活就在我们前方。”符合语境，与下文“But “later” is a moving target.(但“以后”是一个移动靶)”形成顺承转折关系，说明总把幸福寄托于未来。 【37题详解】 上文“From a psychological perspective, “postponing happiness” shows up in three patterns. One typical pattern is to treat time as a problem to solve, not life to experience. We treat our days like a productivity contest, treating time as something to optimize (优化) and joy as the prize at the end.(从心理学的角度来看，“推迟幸福”表现为三种模式。一个典型的模式是将时间视为需要解决的问题，而不是需要体验的生活。我们把我们的日子当作一场生产力竞赛，把时间当作优化的东西，把快乐当作最后的奖品)”提到“延迟幸福”的三种典型模式，已经介绍了第一种模式，空处承接前文的分类逻辑，引出第二种模式。后文出现“The last pattern confuses “being ready” with “being safe”. Yet there are practical ways to break free from this mindset.(最后一种模式将“准备就绪”与“安全”混为一谈。然而，有一些切实可行的方法可以摆脱这种心态)”介绍了第三种模式。F项“另一种是，我们低估了日常生活中微小的积极时刻。”符合语境，以Another衔接三种模式中的第二种。 【38题详解】 下文“This is not because money doesn’t matter, but because how we choose can reshape our daily experience. When our days are packed with various “should-do” obligations, happiness easily gets pushed aside. Try to “buy back one hour” every week. Pick one exhausting task you can hire someone to do. Devote this newly freed hour to activities that bring you inner fulfillment.(这并不是因为钱不重要，而是因为我们的选择方式能够重塑日常体验。当我们的日子被各种“该做的事”所占据时，幸福很容易被推到一边。试着每周“买回一小时”。挑选一项你可以雇人去做的令人筋疲力尽的任务。将这一新腾出的小时用于能给你带来内心满足的活动)”核心是强调时间比金钱更重要。空处为段落主题句。C项“把时间置于金钱之上提供了一条实用路径。”精准概括本段主旨，并与后文“not because money doesn’t matter”直接呼应。 【39题详解】 上文“Mindfulness does not mean staying calm at all times.(正念并不意味着时刻保持冷静)”意在纠正对正念的误解并解释其真正含义。空处承接前文，解释正念的真正内涵。E项“它是一种回到此刻正在发生之事的技能。”符合语境，该项中的It指代mindfulness，说明正念的本质是“回到当下”，与后文实践“A simple practice is “Naming the moment”.(一个简单的练习叫做“为当下命名”)”一致。 【40题详解】 上文“Each day, pick one minor pleasant experience and replay it in your mind for 10-20 seconds. Reflect on what makes this small moment special to you.(每天挑选一个微小的愉快体验，在脑海中回放10到20秒。反思是什么让这个小瞬间对你而言特别)”描述一种反思练习。空处承接前文的复盘动作，说明这个行为的作用。G项“这种反思帮助我们珍视当下，而不是在未来寻求快乐。”符合语境，该项中的Such reflection指代前文的“Reflect on what makes this small moment special to you.”。 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, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On a freezing winter evening, a medical student named Nadia was watching an ice-hockey game from the stands.

The sea was smooth and quiet, and he planned to spend the morning fishing. Then something strange caught his eye. About a hundred meters away, a dark shape was moving slowly in the water. At first he took it for a piece of floating wood. But then it moved again — and he realized it was alive. Curious, he started the engine and steered his boat closer. What he saw took his breath away: a monkey, swimming alone in the open sea, far from any shore. Its small head barely rose above the water, and its strokes (划水动作) were slow and unsteady. The poor creature looked exhausted, as if it had been swimming for hours. The fisherman knew these waters well. The nearest island where monkeys lived was Koh Siray, more than five kilometers away. For a small monkey, that was an impossible distance. There were no branches floating nearby, and no land could be seen — only endless open water. Perhaps the current had swept it away from the coast. It must have been struggling for hours, exhausted and unable to make its way back on its own. As the boat approached, the monkey did not struggle or try to swim away. It simply looked up at the fisherman, as if it had known help was coming. Carefully, the fisherman held out a life jacket, and the tired animal reached out and grabbed it. He pulled it gently alongside the boat. Gathering its last strength, the monkey climbed aboard and collapsed onto the deck (甲板), breathing hard, its wet fur clinging (紧贴) to its small body. The fisherman sat quietly nearby, giving the monkey space. After a long moment, the animal lifted its head and looked at him. There was no fear in its eyes, only exhaustion and something that looked like trust. 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。 The monkey lay still on the deck, its wet body trembling. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the monkey woke up, the Koh Siray island was already in sight. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】【参考范文】 The monkey lay still on the deck, its wet body trembling. Moving slowly so as not to frighten it, the fisherman slipped off his jacket and covered the poor creature with it. Crouching down, he patted it gently. Little by little, the shivering died away and its breathing grew steady. When the fisherman offered fresh water, the monkey drank eagerly, cupping the bowl with its small hands. Gradually it closed its eyes, its body relaxing at last. Watching its small chest rise and fall, the fisherman made up his mind: he would take it back to the island where it belonged. When the monkey woke up, the Koh Siray island was already in sight. Raising its head, it looked around, its small hands gripping the boat’s edge. It paused and cast a glance back at the fisherman. As the boat neared the shore, it jumped onto the sand. After a few steps, it stopped and turned back, as if saying goodbye. The fisherman waved silently, watching until the small figure disappeared into the forest. Only then did he start the engine, knowing that the monkey belonged to the wild and that every life deserves to be cherished. 【解析】 【导语】短文以人与动物为线索展开，讲述泰国普吉岛附近，一名渔夫在椰岛附近海域垂钓时，意外发现一只被洋流卷离5公里外猴岛、已在远海挣扎数小时、濒临脱力的落单猴子。他小心将濒于虚脱的猴子救上船。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写渔民给小猴取暖喂食、改航向送它回家。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写小猴登岸回到自己的家园，渔夫挥手告别。 2.续写线索：给猴子取暖喂食——小猴放松下来——渔夫决定送小猴回家——小猴登岸回家——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①逐渐消失：die away/fade away ②接近：near/approach 情绪类 ①吓到：frighten/scare ②急切地：eagerly/with eagerness 【点睛】[高分句型1] Gradually it closed its eyes, its body relaxing at last.（由“名词+现在分词”构成的独立主格结构作状语） [高分句型2] As the boat neared the shore, it jumped onto the sand. （由连词as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型3] After a few steps, it stopped and turned back, as if saying goodbye.（as if引导的状语从句的省略） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 英语试卷 注意事项: 1. 答题前, 考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2. 每小题选出答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动, 用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号。在试题卷上作答无效。 3. 考试结束后, 请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分, 考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 听力（共两节, 满分30分） 注意, 回答听力部分时, 请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前, 你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where does the man usually listen to rock music?

B Eryn Lawley, a 27-year-old politics graduate, once worked in a digital marketing job. Today, she stands at a workbench, carefully folding pages and sewing book spines (书脊) by hand as a bookbinding apprentice (装订学徒) — and she has never been happier. “It’s more satisfying and far less stressful than sitting in front of a screen all day,” she says. Lawley is part of a growing trend. As artificial intelligence affects white-collar jobs across nearly every sector, more young workers are seeking alternatives and more stable career paths in traditional crafts such as bookbinding, metalwork, and boatbuilding. For these workers, the appeal lies in work that is tangible, creative, and resistant to automation. The shift comes at a critical moment for Britain’s craft heritage. Paul Kidson, chief executive of Ludlow Bookbinders, estimates that fewer than 50 handicraft bookbinders remain in Britain today, a decline largely because formal apprenticeship collapsed in the 1980s. Yet interest is rebounding: Cox London, a craft workshop, received over 160 applications for just two apprenticeship places this year. Employers are taking notice. The Folio Society, a publisher of fine books, refuses to use AI in its creative processes. “Human craftsmanship is irreplaceable,” says chief executive Joanna Reynolds. The National Theatre similarly offers technical apprenticeships in traditional costume design. Kath Geraghty, head of technical qualifications, stresses the urgency of “plugging the skill gap” in these dying crafts and building a more representative workforce. For Lawley, the choice was simple. In an age of algorithms (算法) and automation, she found something AI cannot offer: the quiet pride of creating something lasting with her own hands. While no one can guarantee that technology will never reach even these hands-on trades, for now they provide a rare sense of purpose and security that digital jobs fail to deliver. 24. What led to Lawley leaving her digital marketing job? A. Health problems from long screen hours. B. High pressure and low job satisfaction. C. Her plan for a bookbinding business. D. The rise of AI marketing tools. 25. What does the example of Cox London mainly suggest? A. Young people have a preference for bookbinding. B. Traditional crafts are regaining popularity. C.

What’s the author’s attitude towards hands-on trades at present? A. Critical. B. Ambiguous. C. Favorable. D. Neutral. C For years, protein has enjoyed an almost unquestioned reputation as the nutrient of strength, fitness and healthy aging. Meat, eggs, milk, protein shakes and energy bars are often marketed to build muscle and maintain vitality. Yet a new study from the University of Wisconsin-Madison suggests that consuming more protein than the body needs may not always be beneficial, especially for those who seldom exercise. Researchers found a high-protein diet without regular exercise could lead to a distinct increase in body fat within four months. The result challenges the widespread assumption that extra protein automatically means better health. Professor Dudley Lamming, one of the researchers involved, warned that people taking large amounts of protein tend to suffer higher risks of serious conditions including cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular (心血管的) disease, and may even have a shorter lifespan. This does not mean protein itself is harmful. Instead, it is an essential nutrient of amino acids (氨基酸), which help the body build and repair muscles and support basic biological processes. The real question is not whether we should eat protein, but how much we need. Fitness-driven advertising floods consumers with “high-protein” products. Many take it for granted that more protein equals better health. However, large protein intake with little physical exercise may result in fat gain rather than fitness improvement, and long-term overconsumption carries potential health risks. As Lamming pointed out, most people today are relatively sedentary, which means they may already consume more protein than required. Individual protein needs vary with age, body size and activity level. Athletes need more protein, but unlimited intake is unreasonable. The key is matching intake to the body’s actual demands. For ordinary consumers, the message is not to fear protein, but to be more cautious about treating it as a nutritional cure-all. A balanced diet plus regular exercise matters more than chasing one popular nutrient. In nutrition, moderation counts most. 28. What’s the significance of the research finding? A. It proves protein’s vital role in muscle repair. B. It shows the link between obesity and high protein intake. C. It reveals the cause of many diseases. D. It offers new insights into protein intake. 29. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. People who exercise less need more protein. B. High-protein products are mainly intended for athletes. C. Fitness ads may mislead consumers about protein needs. D. Long-term overconsumption of protein has few health risks. 30. Which can replace the underlined word “sedentary” in paragraph 5? A. Inactive. B. Stressed. C. Self-centered. D. Energetic. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To remind readers to take protein accordingly. B. To introduce a treatment for heart diseases. C. To compare protein needs of different people. D. To advocate low-protein diets on a daily basis. D For decades, scientists have debated whether the mother tongue merely serves as a communication tool or whether it physically shapes human brain structures. Modern brain-scan research suggests that languages acquired in early childhood build stable neural pathways (神经通路), affecting how people process visual information, sound signals and even logical thinking. Language appears to be built into the brain, not merely used by it. Researchers have found remarkable differences in the brains of language users. Those who speak alphabet-based languages mainly rely on the brain’s left hemisphere (左半球) to analyze sounds. In contrast, native Chinese speakers, who use logographic characters (表意文字), develop stronger connections between the brain’s two hemispheres. Their brains activate additional spatial-processing areas to recognize complicated character structures. Such brain features, formed through years of character recognition and writing practice, remain stable into adulthood and may influence learners’ future second-language acquisition. With the foundation of the above research, the assimilation theory (同化理论) states that the human brain tends to reuse the neural pathways built by the mother tongue when absorbing a new language. For instance, Chinese students learning English still employ the visual-spatial circuits formed by Chinese, even though English is an alphabet-based language. This theory may explain why second-language learning is often shaped by a learner’s first language. However, this theory faces challenges from other researchers. They argue that human brain flexibility has been overestimated. The basic language-related brain structures are largely predetermined by genes, and early language experience only slightly adjusts current neural systems rather than constructing brand-new pathways from scratch. Besides, the small size of previous research samples makes it risky to apply the conclusions to broader human populations. Overall, despite academic disagreements, scientists widely agree that one’s first language leaves lasting marks on the brain, forming part of the mental foundation through which we observe and interpret the world. In the classroom, this may mean building lessons around students’ first-language strengths. 32. What do we know about native Chinese speakers? A. They rely mainly on the left hemisphere to process sounds. B. They use spatial-processing areas for writing practice. C. Their brains are shaped more by genes than by learning. D. Their mother tongue enhances links between the two hemispheres. 33. What influences second-language learning according to the theory? A. Learners’ ability to handle new foreign sounds. B. Similarities between the first and second languages. C. Brand-new brain pathways constructed from nothing. D. Neural networks formed in learning one’s mother tongue. 34. What is a major weakness of the theory? A. It denies the flexibility of the brains. B. It overrates the mother tongue’s effect on the brains. C. It ignores the second-language learning environment. D. It fails to explain why the first language leaves lasting marks. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Debate Over Brain Flexibility B. The Genetic Roots of Language Ability C. How the Mother Tongue Shapes the Brains D. How the Brain Learns a Second Language 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分） 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Don’t Postpone Happiness Most of us don’t mean to delay joy. We tell ourselves we are being responsible: after this deadline, after the kids grow older, after I lose weight, after my anxiety eases. ____36____ But “later” is a moving target. If happiness is constantly scheduled for the future, the present becomes nothing more than an endless waiting room. From a psychological perspective, “postponing happiness” shows up in three patterns. One typical pattern is to treat time as a problem to solve, not life to experience. We treat our days like a productivity contest, treating time as something to optimize (优化) and joy as the prize at the end. ____37____. The last pattern confuses “being ready” with “being safe”. Yet there are practical ways to break free from this mindset. ____38____. This is not because money doesn’t matter, but because how we choose can reshape our daily experience. When our days are packed with various “should-do” obligations, happiness easily gets pushed aside. Try to “buy back one hour” every week. Pick one exhausting task you can hire someone to do. Devote this newly freed hour to activities that bring you inner fulfillment. For people caught up in endless mental planning, another helpful tool is staying grounded in the present. Mindfulness does not mean staying calm at all times. ____39____. A simple practice is “Naming the moment”. Set a 90-second timer, notice neutral facts in your surroundings, and identify one small pleasant detail you would normally miss. Remind yourself that these little moments matter too. We can also seek joy by noticing small moments in daily life. You can train yourself to taste small positive events in everyday life. Each day, pick one minor pleasant experience and replay it in your mind for 10-20 seconds. Reflect on what makes this small moment special to you. ____40____. A. Spending less can give us more freedom B. Many people mistake it for clearing the mind C. Prioritizing time over money offers one practical path D. We convince ourselves that a real fulfilling life lies ahead of us E. It is a skill to return to what is happening right at the moment F. Another is that we undervalue small positive moments in daily life G. Such reflection helps us value the present rather than seek joy in the future 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, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On a freezing winter evening, a medical student named Nadia was watching an ice-hockey game from the stands.

The player, Hamilton, felt puzzled at first. Still, he took her ____48____ seriously and visited his doctor right away. To everyone’s ____49____, the examination confirmed it was cancer. Luckily, the disease was caught at an early stage and successfully ____50____. Hamilton never got a chance to thank Nadia face to face. But he ___51___ her story online to spread a message: never ____52____ small warnings. Nadia had never intended to gain fame or attention. She simply followed her ____53____ and did what she believed was right. The heartwarming story has touched thousands of people. It tells us that sometimes a simple ____54____ can make a huge difference and save a life. ____55____ kindness doesn’t require great courage or big rewards; it only requires us to act promptly when we encounter someone in need. 41.

The sea was smooth and quiet, and he planned to spend the morning fishing. Then something strange caught his eye. About a hundred meters away, a dark shape was moving slowly in the water. At first he took it for a piece of floating wood. But then it moved again — and he realized it was alive. Curious, he started the engine and steered his boat closer. What he saw took his breath away: a monkey, swimming alone in the open sea, far from any shore. Its small head barely rose above the water, and its strokes (划水动作) were slow and unsteady. The poor creature looked exhausted, as if it had been swimming for hours. The fisherman knew these waters well. The nearest island where monkeys lived was Koh Siray, more than five kilometers away. For a small monkey, that was an impossible distance. There were no branches floating nearby, and no land could be seen — only endless open water. Perhaps the current had swept it away from the coast. It must have been struggling for hours, exhausted and unable to make its way back on its own. As the boat approached, the monkey did not struggle or try to swim away. It simply looked up at the fisherman, as if it had known help was coming. Carefully, the fisherman held out a life jacket, and the tired animal reached out and grabbed it. He pulled it gently alongside the boat. Gathering its last strength, the monkey climbed aboard and collapsed onto the deck (甲板), breathing hard, its wet fur clinging (紧贴) to its small body. The fisherman sat quietly nearby, giving the monkey space. After a long moment, the animal lifted its head and looked at him. There was no fear in its eyes, only exhaustion and something that looked like trust. 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。 The monkey lay still on the deck, its wet body trembling. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the monkey woke up, the Koh Siray island was already in sight. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $英语试卷第一部分听力注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。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A、B、C三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。do you like listening to rock music?
