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,从四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Britain is a land of stunning landscapes and rich heritage. Here we spotlight four renowned landmarks to uncover their stories.
The Lake District
The Lake District is England’s largest National Park. Stretching across the North-West, it’s home to the nation’s highest mountains and deepest lakes. This district is very famous for its food. There are seven Michelin-starred restaurants. Besides, cosy, traditional and hearty pubs are plentiful in the popular towns. The romance and charm of the lakes have inspired many lake poets in their creativity.
The Roman Baths
The Roman Baths are one of the finest examples of preserved ancient thermal spas in the world, and the only official hot spring in Britain. During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess. Rich or poor, they thought this spring would rid them of their illness, believing it to be blessed by the Goddess.
Westminster Palace and Big Ben
The most iconic architectural structures of not only London but the whole of the UK are Westminster Palace and Big Ben. It was originally built as a royal palace about 1000 years ago. During Henry Ⅷ’s reign, he gave it over to parliament. Big Ben has enormous cultural significance for Britain. Its clock rings are broadcast on television every New Year’s Eve to count down and welcome the New Year.
Stonehenge
Stonehenge is one of the most famous prehistoric monuments. It was built 5000 years ago as a ditch (沟渠) and an earthwork, and the stones now stand within it. In the 1960s, an astronomer theorized that it might be a calendar since you could see the perfect view of the summer sunrise hitting the stones. People will not fully understand it until they are bathed in its remarkable mystery.
1. What is a highlight of the Lake District?
A. Ancient royal buildings. B. Ancient thermal springs.
C. Top-ranked restaurants. D. Huge stone monuments.
2. Why did ancient people value the Roman Baths?
A. It acted as a royal palace. B. It relieved physical pains.
C. It served as a time tool. D. It inspired many lake poets.
3. Which one has the longest history?
A. The Lake District. B. The Roman Baths. C. Westminster Palace. D. Stonehenge.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了英国四处著名的地标景点。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Lake District部分中“This district is very famous for its food. There are seven Michelin-starred restaurants.(该地区以美食闻名,这里拥有七家米其林星级餐厅)”可知,湖区的一大亮点是拥有顶级餐厅。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Roman Baths部分中“During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess. Rich or poor, they thought this spring would rid them of their illness, believing it to be blessed by the Goddess.(公元50年罗马入侵期间,人们将这处温泉献给一位治愈女神。无论贫富,他们都认为这处温泉可以帮他们祛除疾病,相信它受女神庇佑)”可知,古代人们重视罗马浴场,是因为相信它可以缓解身体病痛。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Roman Baths部分中“During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess.(公元50年罗马入侵期间,人们将这处温泉献给一位治愈女神。)”、Westminster Palace and Big Ben部分中“The most iconic architectural structures of not only London but the whole of the UK are Westminster Palace and Big Ben. It was originally built as a royal palace about 1000 years ago.(伦敦乃至整个英国最具标志性的建筑是威斯敏斯特宫和大本钟。在大约1000年前它最初是作为皇宫建造的。)”和Stonehenge部分中“It was built 5000 years ago(它建于5000年前)”可知,罗马浴场建于公元50年,距今约2000年;威斯敏斯特宫约建于1000年前;巨石阵建于5000年前;而湖区本身是英格兰最大的国家公园,属于自然区域,文中仅提及人文开发相关内容,没有它被开辟的时间早于5000年的表述。由此可知,历史最悠久的是巨石阵。
At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance.
Around that period, I was working with Jack, a 30-year-old client who intended to quit his job and explore the world. Our weekly talks acted like a mirror, pushing me to face my own fears of being laughed at, criticized by others, and abandoning the comfortable life I had been used to.
According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. A strong sense of independence and a “seize the moment” attitude are inspiring older travelers to see the world in their own way.
The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal. As people age, steady routines bring a sense of security, yet many people limit themselves to the comfort zone long after it stops benefiting them.
Fortunately, I had my family’s full support. My husband and children all encouraged me to follow my heart. Their warmth left me wondering why I had hesitated for so many years.
Research shows that facing fears helps produce dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical. As I often tell my clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.” Now prepared to board my flight, I firmly believe fortune favors the brave. It is better to live bravely than to let dreams die without trying.
4. Why did the author decide to travel solo at 60?
A. She was inspired by Jack’s plan.
B. She was motivated by a travel survey.
C. She finally responded to her inner call.
D. She attempted to abandon responsibilities.
5. What is the purpose of mentioning the travel survey?
A. To show that travel appeals to all.
B. To prove her choice is widely shared.
C. To stress we should seize the moment.
D. To indicate seniors value independence.
6. What can be known about the author from paragraph 4?
A. She doubted her comfort zone.
B. She silently prayed to miss the trip.
C. She worried about breaking routines.
D. She was torn between joy and worry.
7. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Overcome fears to avoid regret.
B. Appreciate support from family.
C. Steady routines offer a sense of security.
D. Prioritize security over adventure.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述60岁的我勇敢追梦独自开启澳洲西海岸之旅。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance.(60岁这年,我终于决定去追寻那个被自己忽略了几十年的梦想:独自沿着澳大利亚西海岸旅行。多年来,我对冒险的渴望一直被家庭、工作和各种责任淹没。可当我年满60岁时,内心的呼唤变得越来越迫切,我还总担心自己已经错过了最后的机会。)”可知,作者最终决定60岁独自旅行,核心是回应自己积压多年的内心呼唤。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips.(在2800多名受访者中,20%的50岁以上人群计划独自旅行,其中91%的人已经有过这类旅行经历。)”可知,作者提到这份旅行调查,是为了证明自己选择独自旅行的想法并非个例,很多同龄人都有类似的规划和经历。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal.(真正的内心冲突出现在我准备订机票的时候。我心底有个声音默默祈祷支付流程别成功。但我也意识到,这种既兴奋又惶恐的复杂情绪十分正常。)”可知,作者在订机票的阶段,内心在出行的喜悦和对未知的担忧之间摇摆拉扯。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As I often tell my clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.”(正如我常对客户说的那样:“舒适区里除了遗憾,什么都长不出来。”)”可知,作者想要传递的核心观点是直面并克服内心的恐惧,才能避免留下终生的遗憾。
Many college professors feel puzzled: though they set aside regular office hours to provide all sorts of help along students’ life journey, such as answering questions, offering guidance and brainstorming ideas, few students actually turn up. In fact, office hours have become one of the most valuable but seriously underused educational resources for college undergraduates.
Students’ unwillingness to attend these sessions mainly arises from their psychological anxiety. Most students fear asking basic questions and appearing ignorant before professional professors. They also feel guilty about taking up professors’ spare time and feel awkward communicating face to face with unfamiliar professors. Additionally, a common misunderstanding holds that office hours are only for low-performing students. Influenced by this false belief, many excellent students deliberately give up this valuable chance.
Besides mental barriers, practical difficulties also keep students from using office hours. Modern students live with tight daily schedules. Courses, part-time jobs, and various campus activities leave them little free time to match professors’ fixed hours. Worse still, quite a few students do not even know when office hours are held, as they never bother to check the course syllabus (教学大纲) or class website.
Such mistakes require immediate correction. To improve the situation, some professors provide virtual office hours for more flexible choices, remind students of available time via emails, and encourage group visits to reduce students’ unease. Along with these efforts from professors, schools still strongly encourage active participation. The value of office hours should never be ignored.
Accessible to all students, professors offer feedback on essay drafts and sound guidance on further study and career planning. Regular visitors can deepen their understanding of textbook knowledge and develop genuine bonds with professors, which helps them gain valuable recommendation letters for further education or job hunting. In reality, making full use of office hours is not a sign of weakness but a smart way to take control of one’s college studies.
8. What are office hours intended for?
A. Offering all-round guidance.
B. Giving advice on part-time jobs.
C. Organizing campus activities.
D. Evaluating students’ performance.
9. What does “ignorant” underlined in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Frustrated. B. Thoughtful. C. Overlooked. D. Unknowledgeable.
10. What adjustments do professors make to office hours?
A. Providing online service. B. Easing students’ study burden.
C. Adding group discussion. D. Increasing in-person meetings.
11. What does the last paragraph want to tell us?
A. Benefits of office talks. B. Varieties of teachers’ duties.
C. College spare-time plans. D. Office-hour troubles and fixes.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍大学办公时间利用率低的现状,分析学生不参与的心理、现实原因,并说明改进措施与办公时间的价值。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Many college professors feel puzzled: though they set aside regular office hours to provide all sorts of help along students’ life journey, such as answering questions, offering guidance and brainstorming ideas, few students actually turn up. (许多大学教授感到困惑:尽管他们留出固定的办公时间,在学生的求学道路上提供各种各样的帮助,例如解答问题、提供指导以及构思想法,但实际前来的学生寥寥无几。)”可知,办公时间旨在为学生提供全方位的指导帮助。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“Most students fear asking basic questions and appearing ignorant before professional professors. (大多数学生害怕询问基础问题,害怕在专业的教授面前显得ignorant。)”可知,学生因怕问基础问题、显露学识匮乏而不敢找教授,由此猜测ignorant意为“无知的、学识浅薄的”,与unknowledgeable同义。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“To improve the situation, some professors provide virtual office hours for more flexible choices, remind students of available time via emails, and encourage group visits to reduce students’ unease. (为改善这一状况,一些教授提供线上办公时间以提供更灵活的选择,通过邮件提醒学生可预约的时间,并鼓励学生结伴来访以缓解不安情绪。)”可知,教授做出的调整是提供线上办公服务。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Accessible to all students, professors offer feedback on essay drafts and sound guidance on further study and career planning. Regular visitors can deepen their understanding of textbook knowledge and develop genuine bonds with professors, which helps them gain valuable recommendation letters for further education or job hunting. In reality, making full use of office hours is not a sign of weakness but a smart way to take control of one’s college studies. (课程面向所有学生开放,教授们将对论文草稿提供反馈,并就进一步学习及职业规划给予专业指导。常客不仅能深化对教科书知识的理解,还能与教授建立真挚的联系,从而为后续深造或求职获取宝贵的推荐信。事实上,充分利用办公时间并非软弱的表现,而是一种高效管理大学学业的明智之举。)”可知,本段主要讲述了学生参与办公时间交流的诸多益处。
Used in fast food packaging, long-lasting chemicals called PFAS can get into food and build up in our bodies. A new study found that after 24 hours, people who ate fast food consistently showed an increase in PFAS in their blood. Unlike other pollutants (污染物), PFAS can exist for years, meaning regular fast food consumption adds more to the body.
PFAS refers to a class of chemicals used to make objects water or fire resistant. A 2017 study of 400 wrappers found that more than half of bread and dessert wrappers contained the chemical, as did nearly 40% of sandwich and burger wrappers. The chemical has such a bad fame for its inability to break down that it is often called a “forever chemical”.
“Food is just one source of exposure,” says Laurel Schadier, an environmental engineer. PFAS is also commonly found in paint, carpeting and clothing. However, she adds, “We’re not able to link a certain rate of fast food intake with harmful health effects.”
Illustrating a measurable health impact from eating five burgers with PFAS a week compared to just one is difficult because the chemicals are so common. Rolf Halden, an environmental health expert, says the study shows a clear link between fast food and PFAS consumption, but he worries more about the overall abundance of PFAS in consumer goods. “I am less interested in the aspect of popcorn and fast food but more fascinated that we see 70 percent of the U.S. population is getting exposed to chemicals that cannot degrade(分解),” he says.
In addition to unknown health consequences, Schadier notes environmental concerns when PFAS is thrown away. Tap water serving 7.5 million Californians tested positive for the pollutant. While Washington and San Francisco have limited PFAS in food containers, Denmark recently became the first country to ban it entirely from food packaging.
Of the study results, Halden adds: “It would be foolish to think what’s here is the complete exposure to PFAS. That is much larger and still growing more complex.”
12. How does fast food relate to PFAS consumption according to the study?
A. Fast food contains more PFAS than other food does.
B. It is fast food that leads to the consumption of PFAS.
C. PFAS are widely present in fast food packaging materials.
D. The more fast food we eat, the more PFAS gets in our blood.
13. What makes PFAS known as a “forever chemical”?
A. It can never break down naturally.
B. It is widely used in fast food packaging.
C. It is found in paint, carpeting and clothing.
D. It can make objects water and fire resistant.
14. Which of the following statements would Halden most likely agree with?
A. PFAS exposure is limited to the U.S. population.
B. The study’s findings fully explain all PFAS exposure risks.
C. Denmark’s ban on PFAS in food packaging is unnecessary.
D. Fast food is a minor issue compared to the widespread use of PFAS.
15. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To warn American people against eating fast food.
B. To suggest banning all chemicals from food packaging.
C. To prove that PFAS is more harmful than other pollutants.
D. To introduce a chemical called PFAS and its possible risks.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了一种名为PFAS的持久性化学物质,介绍了它的应用场景、来源,分析了快餐摄入与人体PFAS积累的关联,并阐述了该物质对人体和环境的潜在危害,以及各地的管控措施。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study found that after 24 hours, people who ate fast food consistently showed an increase in PFAS in their blood...regular fast food consumption adds more to the body(一项新研究发现,食用快餐的人24小时后血液中的PFAS含量会持续升高……经常吃快餐会让该物质在人体内不断累积)”可知,食用快餐越多,人体内的PFAS含量就越高。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The chemical has such a bad fame for its inability to break down that it is often called a “forever chemical”(这种化学物质因无法分解而声名狼藉,常被称作“永久化学物质”)”可知,无法自然分解是PFAS被称为永久化学物质的原因。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“he worries more about the overall abundance of PFAS in consumer goods(他更担心消费品中PFAS的整体存量)”和“I am less interested in the aspect of popcorn and fast food but more fascinated that we see 70 percent of the U.S. population is getting exposed to chemicals that cannot degrade (分解)(我不太关注爆米花和快餐方面的问题,更关注的是70%的美国人都在接触这种无法分解的化学物质)”可知,在Halden看来,相较于快餐带来的影响,PFAS在各类产品中广泛传播的问题更为严峻,快餐只是次要问题。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,根据第一段“A new study found that after 24 hours, people who ate fast food consistently showed an increase in PFAS in their blood. Unlike other pollutants (污染物), PFAS can exist for years, meaning regular fast food consumption adds more to the body.(一项新研究发现,食用快餐的人24小时后血液中的PFAS含量会持续升高。与其他污染物不同,PFAS可存在多年,这意味着经常吃快餐会让该物质在人体内不断累积)”等内容可知,文章主要介绍了PFAS这种特殊化学物质的特性、使用场景、传播途径,以及它带来的人体健康和环境风险。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
What’s social jet lag (社交时差)? Social jet lag occurs when you stay up later and then sleep in later on weekends than you do on weekdays. Changing the hours that you sleep from day to day affects your body’s natural internal clock.
Social jet lag affects the body similarly to travel jet lag. When you shift your sleeping hours, your body feels as if it were in a different time zone. ___16___ For example, if you stay up late on Saturday night and then sleep in on Sunday morning, you will likely have a hard time falling asleep on Sunday night. This is because your body has not been awake for enough hours to feel tired at your usual Sunday bedtime. ___17___
Yet, frequently changing your body’s internal clock doesn’t just cause daytime sleepiness.
___18___ Social jet lag has been linked with several chronic (慢性的) health problems. Changes in internal clock caused by inconsistent sleeping hours lead to changes in the circulatory (循环) system and raise the risk of heart disease. Individuals who regularly experience social jet lag are also more likely to smoke cigarettes and consume more caffeine. These habits can significantly influence sleep.
Sticking to your sleep schedule is an important part of addressing social jet lag. ___19___ A 2019 study found that when participants kept their sleep and wakeup times within 15 to 30 minutes of the same time each day, they reported better sleep, less depression, and less stress. Study participants were also able to improve their cognitive reaction time scores.
___20___ If you usually change your regular sleep schedule on weekends, it may be time to try to keep a more consistent one. While it may feel difficult to keep the same sleeping hours each day, you will likely notice the health benefits right away.
A. It can significantly impact your health as well.
B. This can make falling and staying asleep difficult.
C. Moreover, establishing a regular sleep schedule is crucial.
D. Adjust your sleep schedule, and everything will be OK.
E. This likely makes waking up early on Monday morning difficult.
F. Aim to go to bed at the same time every day, even on weekends.
G. In general, social jet lag is a common problem that we may all experience.
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. A 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了社交时差、其危害以及应对方法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“When you shift your sleeping hours, your body feels as if it were in a different time zone.(当你改变睡眠时间时,你的身体会感觉好像处于不同的时区)”可知,本句承接上文,说明身体感觉处于不同的时区所带来的影响,B选项“这会使入睡和保持睡眠变得困难”是对其解释说明,This指代改变睡眠时间这种情况。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“For example, if you stay up late on Saturday night and then sleep in on Sunday morning, you will likely have a hard time falling asleep on Sunday night. This is because your body has not been awake for enough hours to feel tired at your usual Sunday bedtime.(例如,如果你周六晚熬夜,周日早上又睡过头,那么周日晚上你可能很难入睡。这是因为你的身体没有清醒足够的时间,在你通常的周日就寝时间感到疲倦)”可知,周日晚上你很可能很难入睡,会导致周一早上早起变得困难, 故E选项“这可能使得周一早上很难早起”符合语境。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Yet, frequently changing your body’s internal clock doesn’t just cause daytime sleepiness.(然而,频繁改变身体的生物钟并不仅仅会导致白天困倦)”以及后文“Social jet lag has been linked with several chronic (慢性的) health problems. Changes in internal clock caused by inconsistent sleeping hours lead to changes in the circulatory (循环) system and raise the risk of heart disease. Individuals who regularly experience social jet lag are also more likely to smoke cigarettes and consume more caffeine. These habits can significantly influence sleep.(社交时差与几种慢性健康问题有关。睡眠时间不一致导致的生物钟变化会导致循环系统的变化,从而增加患心脏病的风险。经常经历社交时差的人也更有可能吸烟和摄入更多的咖啡因。这些习惯会严重影响睡眠)”可知,本段主要说明了改变生物钟对健康的影响。A 选项“它也会极大地影响你的健康”符合语境。故选A。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Sticking to your sleep schedule is an important part of addressing social jet lag.(坚持你的睡眠时间表是解决社交时差的一个重要部分)”可知,本段主要介绍社交时差的解决方法:尽量每天在同一时间上床睡觉, 即使在周末也是如此。F选项“每天在同一时间上床睡觉,即使是在周末”符合语境,故选F。
【20题详解】
根据后文“If you usually change your regular sleep schedule on weekends, it may be time to try to keep a more consistent one. While it may feel difficult to keep the same sleeping hours each day, you will likely notice the health benefits right away.( 如果你经常在周末改变你的正常睡眠时间表,也许是时候试着保持一个更一致的时间表了。虽然每天保持相同的睡眠时间可能很难,但你可能会立即注意到健康的好处)”可知,本句叙述“社交时差”的事实现象,后面给出解决方法,故G选项“总的来说,社交时差是我们都可能经历过的一个普遍问题”符合语境。故选G。

【导语】文章主要报道了2025年威尼斯狂欢节上华人组织的中国传统服饰展演盛况及文化影响。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:由海外华人组织的、以中国传统服饰为亮点的文化演出,在2025年威尼斯年度狂欢节上成为焦点。空处需要非谓语动词作定语,此处performance和highlight是主动关系,用现在分词作后置定语。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:2025年威尼斯狂欢节没有一个和中国相关的官方主题。空处需要非谓语动词作定语,be related to为固定短语,所以此处省掉be动词,剩下过去分词作定语;relate to意为“与……有关”,由此可知,此处也可用现在分词作定语。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而中国元素已经被频繁展示,包括精彩的中国服饰秀、古筝表演等节目以及一场创新戏曲。此处需用副词frequently“频繁地”,作状语修饰动词displayed。

考查名词。句意:威尼斯历史狂欢节主席马西莫表示:“这场汉服巡游赢得了当地居民和游客的认可,既提升了游客对中国文化的兴趣,也激励我们去展示正宗的中国服饰与传统。”空处需用名词recognition作宾语,win recognition为固定搭配,意为“赢得认可”。
【43题详解】

【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:华丽的服饰和多样的面具成为核心亮点,这让时尚成为跨文化交流的桥梁。此处为非限制性定语从句,指代前文整件事,且关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导该从句。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:此外,越来越多的国际学生和海外华人对这个节日怀有深厚的喜爱之情,这个节日既能让他们联结自身的文化根脉,同时也能向世界分享自己的文化。根据固定搭配have affection for...,意为“对……怀有喜爱/感情”。

47. 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。
Relay races (接力赛) were often the most exciting sports, but for Tom, a new member of his school’s relay team, passing the stick was awkward and clumsy. As the third runner, his problem was to catch the stick smoothly from the second runner and pass it to Jake, the final runner. In their first practise, Tom messed up the pass to Jake repeatedly — sometimes too early, making Jake slow down suddenly, sometimes too late, causing Jake to miss the passing zone. These mistakes ruined their teamwork.
After the practise ended, Jake stormed over to Tom. “Your careless and unsteady passes will make us lose the game!” he shouted angrily. Tom hung his head low and felt fully responsible for the messy practise. He even thought about quitting the relay team to focus on running races alone, because the pressure of cooperating with teammates was so uncomfortable compared to the freedom of running alone. Jake turned away in anger without saying another word, barely ignoring the coach who walked over to try to calm both of them down.
The next day, the coach gathered the team for stick-passing practise. “I know you’re upset,” he said gently, “but relay races need teamwork and trust — that’s the key to smooth passes.” To make it feel like a real competition, he set up game-like situations with teammates cheering nearby. He taught them to keep a steady speed, make eye contact, adjust their pace to match each other, and use simple hand signals. The repeated practise helped improve their performance. Tom grew confident and Jake gave him encouraging nods.
A week of intense training passed, and the relay competition arrived. Tom felt a little nervous. Before the race, the team gathered, and the coach told them to believe in each other and stay calm. Jake patted Tom on the shoulder firmly, “I trust you. We’ve practised enough.” Tom nodded, turning nervousness into motivation.
At the sound of the starting gun, all runners shot out.
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。
Soon, the stick was coming to Tom.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the narrow win, the coach came over to Tom.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Soon, the stick was coming to Tom. His heart beat fast, but he remembered the coach’s words: “Keep the same speed and look at each other.” As the second runner came close, Tom slowed down a little, reaching his hand back. He felt the stick touch his palm — he caught it! Then he ran as fast as he could toward Jake, trying not to hear the loud cheers. When he was almost there, he looked straight at Jake, who had already started running. Tom quickly passed the stick, and Jake held it tightly. It worked! Tom stopped, breathing heavily, and watched Jake run to the finish line. It was very close. Jake leaned forward at the last second, and their team won by just a step!
After the narrow win, the coach came over to Tom with a big smile. “That perfect pass made the win possible!” he said happily. Jake ran over too, still out of breath but smiling widely. “We did it together!” he said loudly, giving Tom a high-five. At that moment, Tom felt truly happy and part of the team. He used to think running alone was best, but now he understood that winning with others felt even better. The relay stick, which once made him nervous, now reminded him that trusting his teammates was the key to their success.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Britain is a land of stunning landscapes and rich heritage. Here we spotlight four renowned landmarks to uncover their stories.
The Lake District
The Lake District is England’s largest National Park. Stretching across the North-West, it’s home to the nation’s highest mountains and deepest lakes. This district is very famous for its food. There are seven Michelin-starred restaurants. Besides, cosy, traditional and hearty pubs are plentiful in the popular towns. The romance and charm of the lakes have inspired many lake poets in their creativity.
The Roman Baths
The Roman Baths are one of the finest examples of preserved ancient thermal spas in the world, and the only official hot spring in Britain. During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess. Rich or poor, they thought this spring would rid them of their illness, believing it to be blessed by the Goddess.
Westminster Palace and Big Ben
The most iconic architectural structures of not only London but the whole of the UK are Westminster Palace and Big Ben. It was originally built as a royal palace about 1000 years ago. During Henry Ⅷ’s reign, he gave it over to parliament. Big Ben has enormous cultural significance for Britain. Its clock rings are broadcast on television every New Year’s Eve to count down and welcome the New Year.
Stonehenge
Stonehenge is one of the most famous prehistoric monuments. It was built 5000 years ago as a ditch (沟渠) and an earthwork, and the stones now stand within it. In the 1960s, an astronomer theorized that it might be a calendar since you could see the perfect view of the summer sunrise hitting the stones. People will not fully understand it until they are bathed in its remarkable mystery.
1. What is a highlight of the Lake District?
A. Ancient royal buildings. B. Ancient thermal springs.
C. Top-ranked restaurants. D. Huge stone monuments.
2. Why did ancient people value the Roman Baths?
A. It acted as a royal palace. B. It relieved physical pains.
C. It served as a time tool. D. It inspired many lake poets.
3. Which one has the longest history?

At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance.
Around that period, I was working with Jack, a 30-year-old client who intended to quit his job and explore the world. Our weekly talks acted like a mirror, pushing me to face my own fears of being laughed at, criticized by others, and abandoning the comfortable life I had been used to.
According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. A strong sense of independence and a “seize the moment” attitude are inspiring older travelers to see the world in their own way.
The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal. As people age, steady routines bring a sense of security, yet many people limit themselves to the comfort zone long after it stops benefiting them.
Fortunately, I had my family’s full support. My husband and children all encouraged me to follow my heart. Their warmth left me wondering why I had hesitated for so many years.
Research shows that facing fears helps produce dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical. As I often tell my clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.” Now prepared to board my flight, I firmly believe fortune favors the brave. It is better to live bravely than to let dreams die without trying.
4. Why did the author decide to travel solo at 60?
A. She was inspired by Jack’s plan.
B. She was motivated by a travel survey.
C. She finally responded to her inner call.
D. She attempted to abandon responsibilities.
5. What is the purpose of mentioning the travel survey?
A. To show that travel appeals to all.
B. To prove her choice is widely shared.
C. To stress we should seize the moment.
D. To indicate seniors value independence.
6. What can be known about the author from paragraph 4?
A. She doubted her comfort zone.
B. She silently prayed to miss the trip.
C. She worried about breaking routines.
D. She was torn between joy and worry.
7. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Overcome fears to avoid regret.
B. Appreciate support from family.
C. Steady routines offer a sense of security.
D. Prioritize security over adventure.
Many college professors feel puzzled: though they set aside regular office hours to provide all sorts of help along students’ life journey, such as answering questions, offering guidance and brainstorming ideas, few students actually turn up. In fact, office hours have become one of the most valuable but seriously underused educational resources for college undergraduates.
Students’ unwillingness to attend these sessions mainly arises from their psychological anxiety. Most students fear asking basic questions and appearing ignorant before professional professors. They also feel guilty about taking up professors’ spare time and feel awkward communicating face to face with unfamiliar professors. Additionally, a common misunderstanding holds that office hours are only for low-performing students. Influenced by this false belief, many excellent students deliberately give up this valuable chance.
Besides mental barriers, practical difficulties also keep students from using office hours. Modern students live with tight daily schedules. Courses, part-time jobs, and various campus activities leave them little free time to match professors’ fixed hours. Worse still, quite a few students do not even know when office hours are held, as they never bother to check the course syllabus (教学大纲) or class website.
Such mistakes require immediate correction. To improve the situation, some professors provide virtual office hours for more flexible choices, remind students of available time via emails, and encourage group visits to reduce students’ unease. Along with these efforts from professors, schools still strongly encourage active participation. The value of office hours should never be ignored.
Accessible to all students, professors offer feedback on essay drafts and sound guidance on further study and career planning. Regular visitors can deepen their understanding of textbook knowledge and develop genuine bonds with professors, which helps them gain valuable recommendation letters for further education or job hunting. In reality, making full use of office hours is not a sign of weakness but a smart way to take control of one’s college studies.
8. What are office hours intended for?
A. Offering all-round guidance.
B. Giving advice on part-time jobs.
C. Organizing campus activities.
D. Evaluating students’ performance.
9. What does “ignorant” underlined in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Frustrated. B. Thoughtful. C. Overlooked. D. Unknowledgeable.
10. What adjustments do professors make to office hours?
A. Providing online service. B. Easing students’ study burden.
C. Adding group discussion. D. Increasing in-person meetings.
11. What does the last paragraph want to tell us?
A. Benefits of office talks. B. Varieties of teachers’ duties.
C. College spare-time plans. D. Office-hour troubles and fixes.
Used in fast food packaging, long-lasting chemicals called PFAS can get into food and build up in our bodies. A new study found that after 24 hours, people who ate fast food consistently showed an increase in PFAS in their blood. Unlike other pollutants (污染物), PFAS can exist for years, meaning regular fast food consumption adds more to the body.
PFAS refers to a class of chemicals used to make objects water or fire resistant. A 2017 study of 400 wrappers found that more than half of bread and dessert wrappers contained the chemical, as did nearly 40% of sandwich and burger wrappers. The chemical has such a bad fame for its inability to break down that it is often called a “forever chemical”.
“Food is just one source of exposure,” says Laurel Schadier, an environmental engineer. PFAS is also commonly found in paint, carpeting and clothing. However, she adds, “We’re not able to link a certain rate of fast food intake with harmful health effects.”
Illustrating a measurable health impact from eating five burgers with PFAS a week compared to just one is difficult because the chemicals are so common. Rolf Halden, an environmental health expert, says the study shows a clear link between fast food and PFAS consumption, but he worries more about the overall abundance of PFAS in consumer goods. “I am less interested in the aspect of popcorn and fast food but more fascinated that we see 70 percent of the U.S. population is getting exposed to chemicals that cannot degrade(分解),” he says.
In addition to unknown health consequences, Schadier notes environmental concerns when PFAS is thrown away. Tap water serving 7.5 million Californians tested positive for the pollutant. While Washington and San Francisco have limited PFAS in food containers, Denmark recently became the first country to ban it entirely from food packaging.
Of the study results, Halden adds: “It would be foolish to think what’s here is the complete exposure to PFAS. That is much larger and still growing more complex.”
12. How does fast food relate to PFAS consumption according to the study?
A. Fast food contains more PFAS than other food does.
B. It is fast food that leads to the consumption of PFAS.
C. PFAS are widely present in fast food packaging materials.
D. The more fast food we eat, the more PFAS gets in our blood.
13. What makes PFAS known as a “forever chemical”?
A. It can never break down naturally.
B. It is widely used in fast food packaging.

Relay races (接力赛) were often the most exciting sports, but for Tom, a new member of his school’s relay team, passing the stick was awkward and clumsy. As the third runner, his problem was to catch the stick smoothly from the second runner and pass it to Jake, the final runner. In their first practise, Tom messed up the pass to Jake repeatedly — sometimes too early, making Jake slow down suddenly, sometimes too late, causing Jake to miss the passing zone. These mistakes ruined their teamwork.
After the practise ended, Jake stormed over to Tom. “Your careless and unsteady passes will make us lose the game!” he shouted angrily. Tom hung his head low and felt fully responsible for the messy practise. He even thought about quitting the relay team to focus on running races alone, because the pressure of cooperating with teammates was so uncomfortable compared to the freedom of running alone. Jake turned away in anger without saying another word, barely ignoring the coach who walked over to try to calm both of them down.
The next day, the coach gathered the team for stick-passing practise. “I know you’re upset,” he said gently, “but relay races need teamwork and trust — that’s the key to smooth passes.” To make it feel like a real competition, he set up game-like situations with teammates cheering nearby. He taught them to keep a steady speed, make eye contact, adjust their pace to match each other, and use simple hand signals. The repeated practise helped improve their performance. Tom grew confident and Jake gave him encouraging nods.
A week of intense training passed, and the relay competition arrived. Tom felt a little nervous. Before the race, the team gathered, and the coach told them to believe in each other and stay calm. Jake patted Tom on the shoulder firmly, “I trust you. We’ve practised enough.” Tom nodded, turning nervousness into motivation.
At the sound of the starting gun, all runners shot out.
