M: I wouldn’t recommend a wooden one. It easily gets damp on rainy days. A metal shelf is much better.
W: Sounds good. And I will check the store’s opening hours in advance.
M: No need to worry about that if you go on weekends. The Home Goods Store is open all day on weekends, but downtown parking is terrible.
W: In that case, I’ll take the bus there.
M: The bus ride takes too long. Why not take the light rail instead? It’s much faster and more convenient.
W: That’s good. Thanks for your advice.

We started our visit at the Urban Botanical Garden, where a professional guide introduced local native plants. In the afternoon, we visited the City Art Museum to enjoy traditional local artworks.
On Friday morning, the second day of the tour, we went to the City Wildlife Zoo to learn about the living habits of protected animals. In the afternoon, we walked along the riverbank and finished required field observation records. There happened to be a public environmental lecture nearby, so we stayed and listened. It was delivered by a professional biologist by the river.
Today is Saturday, the final day of our tour. We spent the whole morning at the City Science Museum learning practical knowledge about ecological protection. We have just finished lunch, and all scheduled study and visiting activities are completed. We will go back to school soon. Thanks to all the teachers and parent volunteers for your support. This tour has effectively connected our classroom learning with real-world practice.
第二部分 阅读理解(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
The great film historian and critic David Thomson picks four of his favourite books about Hollywood. (His latest book, A Sudden Flicker of Light: A Revisionist History of the Movies, has just been published by Allen Lane at £25.)
✧ The Last Tycoon by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1941 (Penguin £9.99). Fitzgerald’s last, unfinished novel is not so good as a narrative (叙事的) story, but it offers a superb glimpse of how a brilliant young head of production runs a studio in the golden age, dealing with every problem except those in his own life.
✧ Picture by Lillian Ross, 1952 (NYRB £13.99). Report from the set of The Red Badge of Courage, John Huston’s film adaptation of Stephen Crane’s Civil War novel. Ross, a young writer on The New Yorker, records all the wild show-off talk and Huston’s battles with the studio.
✧ The Deer Park by Norman Mailer, 1955 (Abacus £20). Still the best novel about love, passion, identity, money, honour, power, producers and actors. Set against the backdrop of Hollywood and the pleasure ground of Palm Springs, the story tells of a war hero who toys with selling his life story to the movies.
✧ The Golden Hour by Matthew Spector, 2025 (HarperCollins £12.99). Matthew’s father, Fred Spector, was a top agent at CAA, the talent agency. This is a beautifully written memoir (回忆录) about growing up with the movies, making them, and trying to lead one’s life in the light shining from the screen.
21. What do we know about The Last Tycoon?
A. It fails to tell the story as well as expected.
B. It tells a complete story with an excellent plot.
C. It gives a full account of Fitzgerald’s personal life.
D. It describes the decline of Hollywood’s golden age.
22. Which of the recommended books is priced the highest?
A. A Sudden Flicker of Light. B. The Deer Park.
C. The Golden Hour. D. The Last Tycoon.
23. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To advertise Thomson’s newly published book.
B. To trace the history of Hollywood’s golden age.
C. To recommend four books about Hollywood.
D. To compare the writing styles of different authors.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. C
【解析】

【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据✧ The Last Tycoon部分“Fitzgerald’s last, unfinished novel is not so good as a narrative (叙事的) story (菲茨杰拉德这部最后未完成的小说,作为叙事故事来说并不算出色)”可知,这本书叙事效果不及预期。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章内容,David Thomson推荐的四本书及价格分别为:The Last Tycoon £9.99、Picture £13.99、The Deer Park £20、The Golden Hour £12.99,The Deer Park定价最高。A选项是David Thomson的新书,不属于本次推荐的四本书。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。第一段首句“The great film historian and critic David Thomson picks four of his favourite books about Hollywood. (著名电影历史学家、评论家戴维·汤姆森挑选了四本他最喜欢的关于好莱坞的书籍。)”直接点明文章主题,随后分别介绍了这四本书的内容和特点。因此,本文旨在推荐四本和好莱坞相关的书。
B
Award-winning author and illustrator Rob Biddulph has written and illustrated 21 books, including the Peanut Jones series. Through his Draw with Rob YouTube videos, he has attracted a vast following of devoted young fans, whose parents are equally enthusiastic about his work. “Everyone can draw,” Rob Biddulph says. He compares drawing to a fingerprint. “It’s unique to you,” he says. “That’s the beauty of it.” He has even taught Queen Camilla how to draw her crown.
Biddulph’s three mostly grown-up daughters have influenced his work. When his youngest daughter Poppy started school, he found it a challenge for her. So he began leaving motivational Post-it notes in her packed lunch. He kept up this routine every school day from 2013 until 2020. Those notes, well preserved, developed into small-scale artworks and formed part of his museum exhibition, celebrating parenting as a labour of love. Besides writing, Biddulph is also a musician, which makes sense given the perfectly rhyming lines in his picture books.
Book writing and illustration is his second career. After working in media, he published his first children’s book Blown Away at 42, and it was an instant success. “As soon as I started, I honestly felt like this is what I was meant to do,” he says. Inspired by his artist mother, he made his own books and comics as a child. When creating, he works out ideas in his sketchbook, writes by hand and adjusts rhymes repeatedly. He even tries reading his lines in different accents to test whether they work well.
As a national literacy ambassador, when asked what he thinks about AI in the world of publishing, he regards it as “theft”. This is precisely why his Draw with Rob videos keep marks and imperfections real — to encourage children to embrace the beauty of imperfection and keep creating. And that is perhaps why children love him so much.
24. What can we learn from Biddulph’s words in paragraph 1?
A. Drawings can be used to identify fingerprints.
B. Drawing serves as a special form of self-expression.
C. The uniqueness of art lies in its beautiful appearance.
D. The beauty of drawing lies in mastering artistic skills.
25. What inspired Rob Biddulph to start his Post-it notes?
A. His desire to exhibit his artworks.
B. His daughter’s struggle at school.
C. His ambition to become a writer.
D. His family’s encouragement in his career.
26. What does Biddulph intend to stress in the last paragraph?
A. The popularity of imperfect drawings.
B. The risk of children’s depending on AI.
C. The value of children’s creative attempts.
D. The difficulty in developing children’s creativity.
27. Which of the following best describes Biddulph?
A. Ambitious and strict. B. Generous and modest.
C. Caring and creative. D. Determined and cautious.
【答案】24. B 25. B 26. C 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍获奖作家兼插画师罗伯·比达尔夫的创作经历、灵感来源以及他对创作和人工智能的看法。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“He compares drawing to a fingerprint. “It’s unique to you,” he says. “That’s the beauty of it.”(他把绘画比作指纹。“这对你来说是独一无二的,”他说。“这就是它的魅力所在。”)”可知,绘画是一种独特的自我表达形式。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When his youngest daughter Poppy started school, he found it a challenge for her. So he began leaving motivational Post-it notes in her packed lunch. (当他最小的女儿波比上学后,他发现上学对她来说很难。于是他开始在她的午餐便当里放励志便利贴)”可知,女儿上学遇到困难促使他开始写便利贴。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This is precisely why his Draw with Rob videos keep marks and imperfections real — to encourage children to embrace the beauty of imperfection and keep creating. (这正是“和罗伯一起画画”系列视频保留痕迹与瑕疵的原因——鼓励孩子接纳不完美之美,坚持创作)”可知,他意在强调孩子创造性尝试的价值。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“When his youngest daughter Poppy started school, he found it a challenge for her. So he began leaving motivational Post-it notes in her packed lunch. (当他最小的女儿波比上学后,他发现上学对她来说很难。于是他开始在她的午餐便当里放励志便利贴)”以及第三段“When creating, he works out ideas in his sketchbook, writes by hand and adjusts rhymes repeatedly. (创作时,他在速写本上构思,手写文稿,反复调整韵脚)”可知,他为女儿写励志便利贴,并进行大量创作,是体贴且富有创造力的。

A new study reveals that humans and great apes (类人猿) have shared similar ways of laughing ever since they branched off from the evolutionary tree, reflecting a deep evolutionary connection between species.
To explore the origin of human laughter, researchers designed a scientific comparative experiment. They tickled (挠痒) 13 apes raised under human care including gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees to collect decades-old recordings, which were then re-examined and carefully compared with the natural laughter of four young children. The result confirmed that human and ape laughs share highly similar rhythms and regular time intervals (间隔), strongly indicating a common ancestor. “In a way, we are very similar to other great apes because we’ve been laughing in a similar way for 15 million years,” said Chiara De Gregorio, a primatologist from the University of Warwick and author of the study.
Previous studies on laughter evolution mainly focused on animals’ facial expressions, while the acoustic (声音的) features of laughter were long ignored. Unlike great apes, human laughter has evolved to be faster and more complex, varying greatly with different social contexts, ranging from polite chuckles in public to loud laughter among close friends. “We are like the masters of laughter,” De Gregorio commented, whose findings were published in Communications Biology.
Brittany Florkiewicz, who studies animal communication and was not involved in the research, thought the new findings make sense. She holds that animals’ giggles (咯咯笑声) have evolved to best fit their distinct social lives and stressed the necessity of further exploration. Florkiewicz suggested collecting comparable recordings of other playful animals, including dogs, horses and cats, to deepen related research. According to her, more data can help scientists better figure out the evolution of laughter and “understand what makes us uniquely human, but also what is similar between humans and other animals”.
For researchers, though studying laughter’s origins seems trivial, it matters a lot for exploring human communication and language development. Since sounds cannot be preserved in fossils, scientists have to trace the evolutionary history of human laughter based on existing biological evidence.
28. What did the researchers do in the new study?
A. They studied the social contexts of human laughter.
B. They examined the fossil records of ancient humans.
C. They analyzed the facial expressions of apes and humans.
D. They compared the laughter of apes with that of children.
29. What does the underlined word “trivial” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Complex. B. Practical. C. Insignificant. D. Invaluable.
30. What does Brittany Florkiewicz suggest for future studies?
A. Describing the social lives of great apes.
B. Focusing on the facial expressions of animals.
C. Exploring the fossils to trace laughter’s origin.
D. Contrasting laughter among a wide range of animals.
31. What is the major finding of the new study on laughter?
A. Facial expressions are key to understanding laughter.
B. Human laughter varies with different social situations.
C. Laughter in humans and apes shows similar acoustic patterns.
D. Apes produce more complex laughter than human beings.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍一项新研究发现,人类与类人猿笑的方式相近,强烈证实二者可能源自共同祖先,同时陈述了专家建议和看法,并探究研究笑声起源的意义。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They tickled (挠痒) 13 apes raised under human care including gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees to collect decades-old recordings, which were then re-examined and carefully compared with the natural laughter of four young children. (他们给13只由人工照顾的猿类挠痒,收集积累数十年的录音,再重新检查录音并与四名幼儿的自然笑声仔细对比)”可知,研究人员对比了猿类和孩子的笑声。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“though studying laughter’s origins seems trivial, it matters a lot for exploring human communication and language development (尽管研究笑声的起源似乎trivial,但它对探究人类交流和语言发展十分重要)”可知,though引导让步状语从句,前后为让步转折关系,后文matters a lot (意义重大)与trivial含义相反,画线词trivial表示“无关紧要的”,与insignificant意思相近。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Florkiewicz suggested collecting comparable recordings of other playful animals, including dogs, horses and cats, to deepen related research. (Florkiewicz建议收集狗、马、猫等其他爱玩动物的对比录音,深化相关研究)”可知,她建议对比更多种类动物的笑声。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The result confirmed that human and ape laughs share highly similar rhythms and regular time intervals (间隔), strongly indicating a common ancestor. (结果证实人类和猿类的笑声拥有高度相似的节奏和规律的时间间隔,有力证明二者拥有共同祖先)”可知,该研究主要发现人类和猿类笑声具备相似的声音模式。

Digital screens are now deeply integrated in our lives, with children getting access to them at earlier and earlier ages — but is this increasing screen time actually affecting their health? The science is more mixed than you might expect, with some digital device studies raising concerns and others suggesting there is no real relationship between time in front of a screen and mental or physical problems.
In a new paper published in JAMA Network Open, researchers from the University of Edinburgh and Imperial College London analyzed data from a group of 3,786 children in the Growing Up in Scotland research study. They looked at how out-of-school screen use at age 5, 10, and 15 related to psychosocial development, covering emotional, behavioral, and social well-being. The researchers accounted for several influencing factors, including sex, race, ethnicity, household income, and cognitive (认知的) test scores. The overall findings are reassuring (令人放心的), suggesting that how screens are used matters more than the time spent on devices.
The research found no significant association between general screen use and developmental difficulties among children aged 5 and 10. For 15-year-olds, higher developmental difficulty scores were only related to overuse of electronic games, not other screen activities. Besides, early heavy screen use that seemed to cause problems at age 10 did not have lasting negative effects by age 15. One unexpected finding was that 15-year-olds spending more than one hour a day on social media had fewer average developmental troubles. Researchers explained that social media may help teenagers strengthen friendships and gain social support, but they reminded readers that this result cannot confirm definite benefits, as socially adaptable teens are more likely to use such platforms actively.
The study questions current public health guidelines that simply focus on limiting children’s screen time. Experts suggest future research should explore children’s specific screen content, usage scenarios (场景) and accompanying partners, as well as their offline activities. Launched in 2009, the study has certain limitations since digital devices are far more popular nowadays. Even so, it clearly proves that screen time alone will not consistently harm teenagers’ psychosocial development. The apparent negative links between screen use and poor growth outcomes will weaken or disappear completely when comprehensive external factors are taken into account.
32. What do paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly tell us?
A. Major findings of the new study. B. Limits of the screen-time research.
C. Advice on kids’ screen behaviour. D. Causes of teens’ developmental trouble.
33. What can we learn about social media according to the study?
A. Early screen problems can last throughout teenage years.
B. Heavy gaming may cause teens’ developmental problems.
C. More social media use helps teens’ development grow better.
D. Social competence makes teens more willing to use social media.
34. Why does the author mention current health guidelines?
A. To introduce ways to improve teens’ offline activities.
B. To prove the value of long-term children research.
C. To stress the necessity of limiting kids’ screen use.
D. To show the limits of the common screen-time rules.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Digital Devices: More Popular Than Ever. B. Screen Use: More Beneficial Than Harmful.
C. Screen Rules: More Important Than Content. D. Screen Time: Less Harmful Than Expected.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了一项新研究,发现儿童使用屏幕的时间与其心理社会发展问题之间关联不大,关键在于使用方式。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“The overall findings are reassuring (令人放心的), suggesting that how screens are used matters more than the time spent on devices.(总体研究结果令人放心,表明屏幕的使用方式比使用时长更重要。)”以及第三段中“The research found no significant association between general screen use and developmental difficulties among children aged 5 and 10. For 15-year-olds, higher developmental difficulty scores were only related to overuse of electronic games, not other screen activities. Besides, early heavy screen use that seemed to cause problems at age 10 did not have lasting negative effects by age 15. One unexpected finding was that 15-year-olds spending more than one hour a day on social media had fewer average developmental troubles.(研究发现,5岁和10岁儿童的总体屏幕使用与发育困难之间没有显著关联。对于15岁青少年,较高的发育困难分数仅与过度使用电子游戏有关,与其他屏幕活动无关。此外,早期重度屏幕使用似乎在10岁时造成问题,但到15岁时并未产生持久的负面影响。一个出乎意料的发现是,每天使用社交媒体超过一小时的15岁青少年,平均发育困扰反而更少。)”可知,第二、三段主要介绍了这项新研究的主要发现。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“For 15-year-olds, higher developmental difficulty scores were only related to overuse of electronic games, not other screen activities. Besides, early heavy screen use that seemed to cause problems at age 10 did not have lasting negative effects by age 15. One unexpected finding was that 15-year-olds spending more than one hour a day on social media had fewer average developmental troubles.

【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The study questions current public health guidelines that simply focus on limiting children’s screen time. Experts suggest future research should explore children’s specific screen content, usage scenarios (场景) and accompanying partners, as well as their offline activities.(该研究对当前仅关注限制儿童屏幕时间的公共卫生指南提出了质疑。专家建议,未来研究应探究儿童具体的屏幕内容、使用场景和陪伴伙伴,以及他们的线下活动。)”可知,作者提到当前健康指南是为了表明常用屏幕时间规则的局限性。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第二段中“The overall findings are reassuring (令人放心的), suggesting that how screens are used matters more than the time spent on devices.(总体研究结果令人放心,表明屏幕的使用方式比使用时长更重要。)”以及最后一段中“Even so, it clearly proves that screen time alone will not consistently harm teenagers’ psychosocial development.(尽管如此,它清楚地证明,仅屏幕时间本身并不会持续损害青少年的心理社会发展。)”可知,文章介绍了一项新的研究表明屏幕时间并不像人们想象的那样有害,D项“Screen Time: Less Harmful Than Expected(屏幕时间:没有预期的那样有害)”最能概括文章内容,最适合做文章标题。

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。
Critical thinking refers to the ability to make objective, reasoned judgments based on interpreting, understanding, and applying evidence. Nowadays, large amounts of conflicting information surround us, so these skills matter greatly. Here’s how to develop them.
Accept diverse viewpoints
It’s easy to get trapped in your own bubble. Social media algorithms keep exposing us to similar ideas, and we tend to stay around people sharing similar viewpoints. ____36____ Reading diverse news sources and listening curiously to people with different views can help reassess problems from fresh angles.
Try to be less reactionary
Training yourself not to react without thinking gives you room to think over topics thoroughly. When debating, resist immediate rejection of opposing ideas. ____37____ It broadens your thinking and prevents costly, rushed decisions.
Look for the full picture
We often see only partial information due to our personal views or hidden agendas of information sources. ____38____ Carry out independent research and search for overlooked facts and alternative viewpoints.
Learn to spot unfair preferences
____39____ Such preferences are not necessarily bad. For example, a satisfying personal experience may make someone praise a service far more than most other people do.

We can examine word choices, check source materials, look for repeated patterns and consider factors like support and influence.

【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍批判性思维的定义,围绕五条实用方法,指导读者掌握这项核心能力。
【36题详解】
由上文“It’s easy to get trapped in your own bubble. Social media algorithms keep exposing us to similar ideas, and we tend to stay around people sharing similar viewpoints. (我们很容易被困在自己的信息茧房里。社交媒体算法不断给我们推送相似的观点,我们也更愿意和想法相近的人相处。)”及下文“Reading diverse news sources and listening curiously to people with different views can help reassess problems from fresh angles. (阅读不同来源的新闻、带着好奇心倾听不同立场的人的想法,能帮我们从全新的角度重新审视问题。)”可知,上文点明我们容易陷入同质化的局限思维,下文给出打破这种状态的具体做法,本空需要完成语义转折,引出开放心态跳出局限的核心逻辑。E选项“However, open-mindedness helps escape such limited thinking patterns. (然而,保持开放的心态能帮我们跳出这种局限的思维模式。)”能承上启下,符合语境。
【37题详解】
由上文“Training yourself not to react without thinking gives you room to think over topics thoroughly. When debating, resist immediate rejection of opposing ideas. (训练自己不经过思考就不做出反应,能给你留出彻底思考议题的空间。辩论时,要克制住立刻否定对立观点的冲动。)”及下文“It broadens your thinking and prevents costly, rushed decisions. (它能拓宽你的思路,帮你避免代价高昂的仓促决策。)”可知,上文要求我们不要急于否定陌生观点,下文点明这种做法带来的好处,本空需要衔接前后内容,说明花时间思考陌生想法能带来更好的判断。F选项“Taking time to consider unfamiliar thoughts produces better judgments. (花时间去思考不熟悉的想法,能帮你做出更优质的判断。)”能承上启下,符合语境。
【38题详解】
由上文“We often see only partial information due to our personal views or hidden agendas of information sources. (受个人视角或信息发布方隐藏意图的影响,我们往往只能看到部分信息。)”及下文“Carry out independent research and search for overlooked facts and alternative viewpoints. (开展独立调研,去寻找被忽略的事实和其他可能的观点。)”可知,上文指出我们接触到的信息是不完整的,下文给出补全信息的具体行动,本空需要衔接前后逻辑,说明我们要补齐缺失的信息。G选项“Under such conditions, we ought to make up for missing message pieces. (在这种情况下,我们应当补齐缺失的信息碎片。)”能承上启下,符合语境。
【39题详解】
由下文“Such preferences are not necessarily bad. For example, a satisfying personal experience may make someone praise a service far more than most other people do. (这类偏好不一定是坏事。比如,一段愉快的个人体验可能会让某个人对一项服务的评价远高于大多数普通人。)”可知,下文开始对“不公平偏好”这个核心概念展开举例解释,本空需要先对这个术语做出定义,明确它的具体含义。D选项“This means treating something with an unbalanced favour or disapproval. (它指的是用失衡的偏向性喜好或否定态度去对待某件事。)”能引出后文的解释内容,符合语境。
【40题详解】
由上文“Apply this skill in talks, news-reading and self-reflection. Seek background context, spot patterns and require further details. (在交谈、读新闻和自我反思中运用这项技能。去探寻背景语境、识别规律、要求获取更多细节。)”及下文“You might gain unexpected insights through deeper exploration. (通过更深入的探索,你可能会收获意想不到的见解。)”可知,上文要求我们主动追问细节、深挖信息,下文点明深挖带来的收获,本空需要衔接前后内容,说明当现有材料线索不足时要继续深挖。C选项“Keep digging when available materials fail to offer sufficient clues. (当现有材料无法提供足够线索时,要继续深挖下去。)”能承上启下,符合语境。

【导语】文章介绍了中国扇子的悠久历史、贡扇的制作工艺及其作为非物质文化遗产的传承与创新。
【56题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:早期,扇子由雉鸡羽毛制成,主要被皇室使用,作为权力和地位的象征,而不是用来纳凉。craft(制作)是谓语动词,与主语fans之间是被动关系;结合时间状语In early days可知,描述过去发生的动作,应用一般过去时的被动语态;主语为复数名词,谓语用复数形式were crafted。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:早期,扇子由雉鸡羽毛制成,主要被皇室使用,作为权力和地位的象征,而不是用来纳凉。be used as是固定搭配,意为“被用作”,用介词as。

【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:工匠们用定制的刀具挑选颜色最均匀的竹段,并将它们切成非常细的竹丝。此处作后置定语,color(给……着色)用非谓语形式,与其逻辑主语bamboo sections之间是被动关系,应用过去分词形式表被动。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意:贡扇的创造者龚爵五曾是当地的一名煤炭搬运工。提示词作Gong Juewu的同位语,意为“创造者”,用名词creator,说明其身份。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他把竹子劈成发丝般的细丝,然后编织出精美的扇面,使他的手工作品在当地闻名。此处作结果状语,make(使)用非谓语形式,与其逻辑主语He之间是主动关系,应用现在分词形式表主动。
【64题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:“如果传承是贡扇的根,那么创新就是它的枝和叶——拓展这门古老工艺的可能性,把它从博物馆的玻璃后面带到更广泛受众的手中,”她说。leaf(叶子)是可数名词,与branches并列,此处表示众多的叶子,应用复数形式leaves。
【65题详解】
考查连词。句意:“如果传承是贡扇的根,那么创新就是它的枝和叶——拓展这门古老工艺的可能性,把它从博物馆的玻璃后面带出来,并带到更广泛受众的手中,”她说。out from behind a museum’s glass和into the hands of a wider audience为并列的介词短语,应用并列连词and连接。故填and。

Ranking Good Relationship Essentials
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Ranking Good Relationship Essentials
From my perspective, the three essentials of a good classmate relationship should be ranked as Sincerity first, Communication second, and Tolerance third. Sincerity is the foundation of any positive interaction. Only when we treat classmates wholeheartedly can we win true trust. Next comes communication, which helps clear up misunderstandings in time based on mutual trust. Tolerance, the supporting rule, smooths minor conflicts when sincere talks can’t reach an agreement. This order helps us build warm, lasting bonds with peers.

67. 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。
A poster posted on the school bulletin board announced a compulsory activity: all students were required to complete twenty hours of community volunteer work within a week. I let out a silent sigh. Busy with endless exam preparations and an upcoming school basketball competition, I thought volunteering would only add extra trouble and boredom to my tight schedule.
Most of my classmates rushed to sign up for easy and comfortable positions like library sorting or animal shelter care. However, all these popular choices were fully occupied when I finally got the chance to sign up. The only volunteer task left was delivering meals to elderly residents in the downtown old community. Helplessly, I signed my name, counting down the days to finish the tiring task as soon as possible.
On my first volunteering day, I was assigned to deliver packed lunches to seniors living in old apartment buildings. These aging buildings had no elevators at all. Sweating in the hot summer weather, I carried heavy meal boxes and climbed countless stairs up and down. After just a few deliveries, my uniform was completely soaked with sweat.
It was then that I got to know Elaine. She opened the door extremely slowly, and I was almost about to leave, assuming no one was home. She was a small, elderly lady with a bent figure, and her simple apartment was filled with various old books, giving off a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. When I handed her the lunch box, she held my hands tightly with hers. “I haven’t talked to a young person for such a long time,” she said softly. I smiled awkwardly and promised to visit her again the next day.
I kept my word. Every day, I climbed the stairs to visit Elaine. Gradually, she opened up to me and shared her life stories: her peaceful childhood, her late husband who was a book lover and kept a collection of precious books, and her only son who worked in a distant city and seldom came back. She once told me that she still kept all her husband’s books carefully, as they could remind her of their warm old days. I always listened carefully during my short visits. Unexpectedly, the boring delivery work gradually turned into the most relaxing and warm part of my day.
On my final day of volunteer service, Elaine handed me a small package wrapped neatly in old newspaper. “Open it at home,” she said gently, wearing a mysterious and warm smile. The package felt firm and flat in my hand, and I could tell it held a square-shaped object with slight thickness.
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。
I unwrapped the package on my arrival home and found a book inside.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This unexpected gift completely changed my previous attitude towards volunteer work.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I unwrapped the package on my arrival home and found a book inside. It was exactly the collection Elaine’s late husband had treasured for years, with faint traces of time on its yellowed pages. A tiny note was attached, saying “Companion warms lonely days.” When I stared at the book, scenes of our daily chats flashed back. All my previous complaints about tiring stair-climbing and tight schedules vanished instantly. Holding the book gently, I could feel her sincere love behind the gift. Tears welled up in my eyes.
This unexpected gift completely changed my previous attitude towards volunteer work. I used to treat community service as a compulsory burden interrupting my tight study schedule and basketball training. But then I realized volunteering was never a simple task of checking required service hours. It lay in sincere communication and warm companionship for the lonely elderly. After the volunteer hours ended, I still visited Elaine regularly, chatting with her and helping with housework. I also shared my experience with my classmates, attracting them to join me.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,主要讲述了作者因被迫参加社区志愿送餐活动而结识独居老人Elaine,在每日送餐陪伴中与她建立温暖情谊,最终在志愿活动结束时收到她珍贵赠书并由此改变对志愿工作态度的故事。

②由第二段首句可知,第二段可描写这份意外之礼彻底改变了作者对志愿工作的偏见,他不再视其为负担,而是理解了真诚陪伴的价值,并在志愿结束后继续看望Elaine、带动同学一同参与。
2.续写线索:拆开包裹发现旧书——读到留言回忆往昔——感动落泪——反思志愿工作的真正意义——转变态度——持续探望并带动他人

The great film historian and critic David Thomson picks four of his favourite books about Hollywood. (His latest book, A Sudden Flicker of Light: A Revisionist History of the Movies, has just been published by Allen Lane at £25.)
✧ The Last Tycoon by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1941 (Penguin £9.99). Fitzgerald’s last, unfinished novel is not so good as a narrative (叙事的) story, but it offers a superb glimpse of how a brilliant young head of production runs a studio in the golden age, dealing with every problem except those in his own life.
✧ Picture by Lillian Ross, 1952 (NYRB £13.99). Report from the set of The Red Badge of Courage, John Huston’s film adaptation of Stephen Crane’s Civil War novel. Ross, a young writer on The New Yorker, records all the wild show-off talk and Huston’s battles with the studio.
✧ The Deer Park by Norman Mailer, 1955 (Abacus £20). Still the best novel about love, passion, identity, money, honour, power, producers and actors. Set against the backdrop of Hollywood and the pleasure ground of Palm Springs, the story tells of a war hero who toys with selling his life story to the movies.
✧ The Golden Hour by Matthew Spector, 2025 (HarperCollins £12.99). Matthew’s father, Fred Spector, was a top agent at CAA, the talent agency. This is a beautifully written memoir (回忆录) about growing up with the movies, making them, and trying to lead one’s life in the light shining from the screen.
21. What do we know about The Last Tycoon?
A. It fails to tell the story as well as expected.
B. It tells a complete story with an excellent plot.
C. It gives a full account of Fitzgerald’s personal life.
D. It describes the decline of Hollywood’s golden age.
22. Which of the recommended books is priced the highest?
A. A Sudden Flicker of Light. B. The Deer Park.
C. The Golden Hour. D. The Last Tycoon.
23. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To advertise Thomson’s newly published book.
B. To trace the history of Hollywood’s golden age.
C. To recommend four books about Hollywood.
D. To compare the writing styles of different authors.
B
Award-winning author and illustrator Rob Biddulph has written and illustrated 21 books, including the Peanut Jones series. Through his Draw with Rob YouTube videos, he has attracted a vast following of devoted young fans, whose parents are equally enthusiastic about his work. “Everyone can draw,” Rob Biddulph says. He compares drawing to a fingerprint. “It’s unique to you,” he says. “That’s the beauty of it.” He has even taught Queen Camilla how to draw her crown.
Biddulph’s three mostly grown-up daughters have influenced his work. When his youngest daughter Poppy started school, he found it a challenge for her. So he began leaving motivational Post-it notes in her packed lunch. He kept up this routine every school day from 2013 until 2020. Those notes, well preserved, developed into small-scale artworks and formed part of his museum exhibition, celebrating parenting as a labour of love. Besides writing, Biddulph is also a musician, which makes sense given the perfectly rhyming lines in his picture books.
Book writing and illustration is his second career. After working in media, he published his first children’s book Blown Away at 42, and it was an instant success. “As soon as I started, I honestly felt like this is what I was meant to do,” he says. Inspired by his artist mother, he made his own books and comics as a child. When creating, he works out ideas in his sketchbook, writes by hand and adjusts rhymes repeatedly. He even tries reading his lines in different accents to test whether they work well.
As a national literacy ambassador, when asked what he thinks about AI in the world of publishing, he regards it as “theft”. This is precisely why his Draw with Rob videos keep marks and imperfections real — to encourage children to embrace the beauty of imperfection and keep creating. And that is perhaps why children love him so much.
24. What can we learn from Biddulph’s words in paragraph 1?
A. Drawings can be used to identify fingerprints.
B. Drawing serves as a special form of self-expression.
C. The uniqueness of art lies in its beautiful appearance.
D. The beauty of drawing lies in mastering artistic skills.
25. What inspired Rob Biddulph to start his Post-it notes?
A. His desire to exhibit his artworks.
B. His daughter’s struggle at school.
C. His ambition to become a writer.
D. His family’s encouragement in his career.
26. What does Biddulph intend to stress in the last paragraph?
A. The popularity of imperfect drawings.
B. The risk of children’s depending on AI.
C. The value of children’s creative attempts.
D. The difficulty in developing children’s creativity.
27. Which of the following best describes Biddulph?
A. Ambitious and strict. B. Generous and modest.
C. Caring and creative. D. Determined and cautious.
C
A new study reveals that humans and great apes (类人猿) have shared similar ways of laughing ever since they branched off from the evolutionary tree, reflecting a deep evolutionary connection between species.
To explore the origin of human laughter, researchers designed a scientific comparative experiment. They tickled (挠痒) 13 apes raised under human care including gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees to collect decades-old recordings, which were then re-examined and carefully compared with the natural laughter of four young children. The result confirmed that human and ape laughs share highly similar rhythms and regular time intervals (间隔), strongly indicating a common ancestor. “In a way, we are very similar to other great apes because we’ve been laughing in a similar way for 15 million years,” said Chiara De Gregorio, a primatologist from the University of Warwick and author of the study.
Previous studies on laughter evolution mainly focused on animals’ facial expressions, while the acoustic (声音的) features of laughter were long ignored. Unlike great apes, human laughter has evolved to be faster and more complex, varying greatly with different social contexts, ranging from polite chuckles in public to loud laughter among close friends. “We are like the masters of laughter,” De Gregorio commented, whose findings were published in Communications Biology.
Brittany Florkiewicz, who studies animal communication and was not involved in the research, thought the new findings make sense. She holds that animals’ giggles (咯咯笑声) have evolved to best fit their distinct social lives and stressed the necessity of further exploration. Florkiewicz suggested collecting comparable recordings of other playful animals, including dogs, horses and cats, to deepen related research. According to her, more data can help scientists better figure out the evolution of laughter and “understand what makes us uniquely human, but also what is similar between humans and other animals”.
For researchers, though studying laughter’s origins seems trivial, it matters a lot for exploring human communication and language development. Since sounds cannot be preserved in fossils, scientists have to trace the evolutionary history of human laughter based on existing biological evidence.
28. What did the researchers do in the new study?
A. They studied the social contexts of human laughter.
B. They examined the fossil records of ancient humans.
C. They analyzed the facial expressions of apes and humans.
D. They compared the laughter of apes with that of children.
29. What does the underlined word “trivial” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Complex. B. Practical. C. Insignificant. D. Invaluable.
30. What does Brittany Florkiewicz suggest for future studies?
A. Describing the social lives of great apes.
B. Focusing on the facial expressions of animals.
C. Exploring the fossils to trace laughter’s origin.
D. Contrasting laughter among a wide range of animals.
31. What is the major finding of the new study on laughter?
A. Facial expressions are key to understanding laughter.
B. Human laughter varies with different social situations.
C. Laughter in humans and apes shows similar acoustic patterns.
D. Apes produce more complex laughter than human beings.
D
Digital screens are now deeply integrated in our lives, with children getting access to them at earlier and earlier ages — but is this increasing screen time actually affecting their health? The science is more mixed than you might expect, with some digital device studies raising concerns and others suggesting there is no real relationship between time in front of a screen and mental or physical problems.
In a new paper published in JAMA Network Open, researchers from the University of Edinburgh and Imperial College London analyzed data from a group of 3,786 children in the Growing Up in Scotland research study. They looked at how out-of-school screen use at age 5, 10, and 15 related to psychosocial development, covering emotional, behavioral, and social well-being. The researchers accounted for several influencing factors, including sex, race, ethnicity, household income, and cognitive (认知的) test scores. The overall findings are reassuring (令人放心的), suggesting that how screens are used matters more than the time spent on devices.
The research found no significant association between general screen use and developmental difficulties among children aged 5 and 10. For 15-year-olds, higher developmental difficulty scores were only related to overuse of electronic games, not other screen activities. Besides, early heavy screen use that seemed to cause problems at age 10 did not have lasting negative effects by age 15. One unexpected finding was that 15-year-olds spending more than one hour a day on social media had fewer average developmental troubles. Researchers explained that social media may help teenagers strengthen friendships and gain social support, but they reminded readers that this result cannot confirm definite benefits, as socially adaptable teens are more likely to use such platforms actively.
The study questions current public health guidelines that simply focus on limiting children’s screen time. Experts suggest future research should explore children’s specific screen content, usage scenarios (场景) and accompanying partners, as well as their offline activities. Launched in 2009, the study has certain limitations since digital devices are far more popular nowadays. Even so, it clearly proves that screen time alone will not consistently harm teenagers’ psychosocial development. The apparent negative links between screen use and poor growth outcomes will weaken or disappear completely when comprehensive external factors are taken into account.
32. What do paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly tell us?
A. Major findings of the new study. B. Limits of the screen-time research.
C. Advice on kids’ screen behaviour. D. Causes of teens’ developmental trouble.
33. What can we learn about social media according to the study?
A. Early screen problems can last throughout teenage years.
B. Heavy gaming may cause teens’ developmental problems.
C. More social media use helps teens’ development grow better.
D. Social competence makes teens more willing to use social media.
34. Why does the author mention current health guidelines?
A. To introduce ways to improve teens’ offline activities.
B. To prove the value of long-term children research.
C. To stress the necessity of limiting kids’ screen use.
D. To show the limits of the common screen-time rules.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Digital Devices: More Popular Than Ever. B. Screen Use: More Beneficial Than Harmful.
C. Screen Rules: More Important Than Content. D. Screen Time: Less Harmful Than Expected.

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。
Critical thinking refers to the ability to make objective, reasoned judgments based on interpreting, understanding, and applying evidence. Nowadays, large amounts of conflicting information surround us, so these skills matter greatly. Here’s how to develop them.
Accept diverse viewpoints
It’s easy to get trapped in your own bubble. Social media algorithms keep exposing us to similar ideas, and we tend to stay around people sharing similar viewpoints. ____36____ Reading diverse news sources and listening curiously to people with different views can help reassess problems from fresh angles.
Try to be less reactionary
Training yourself not to react without thinking gives you room to think over topics thoroughly. When debating, resist immediate rejection of opposing ideas. ____37____ It broadens your thinking and prevents costly, rushed decisions.
Look for the full picture
We often see only partial information due to our personal views or hidden agendas of information sources. ____38____ Carry out independent research and search for overlooked facts and alternative viewpoints.
Learn to spot unfair preferences
____39____ Such preferences are not necessarily bad. For example, a satisfying personal experience may make someone praise a service far more than most other people do. But we still need to watch out for them, for they can change our opinions. Hidden influences of this sort are easy to go unnoticed in daily reading. We can examine word choices, check source materials, look for repeated patterns and consider factors like support and influence.
Ask questions
Apply this skill in talks, news-reading and self-reflection. Seek background context, spot patterns and require further details. ____40____ You might gain unexpected insights through deeper exploration.
A. It pays to figure out why we prefer certain sets of beliefs.
B. We should value opinions based on one’s real-life feelings.
C. Keep digging when available materials fail to offer sufficient clues.
D. This means treating something with an unbalanced favour or disapproval.
E. However, open-mindedness helps escape such limited thinking patterns.
F. Taking time to consider unfamiliar thoughts produces better judgments.
G. Under such conditions, we ought to make up for missing message pieces.

He was honored with a certificate for this meaningful ____43____. Turner hopes his reading helps the animals on the other side of the ____44____ feel calmer and eventually find their forever homes.
The program ____45____ young teenagers to shelter centers to read aloud to cats and dogs. It allows children to ____46____ their reading skills while providing shelter pets with companionship and the presence of a calm human voice.

Surprisingly, soft reading voices can ____49____ lower their stress.
Turner ____50____ the program in 2024. ____51____, he bonded with many animals, and a memorable dog named Hopper impressed him most. For Turner, such warm moments make every reading session ____52____.
He returned repeatedly with books. His 100-hour milestone now ____53____ a record for a child in the Pawsitive Reading program, ____54____ the number only tells part of the story. His achievement offers a simple reminder that kindness does not always require a grand ____55____. Sometimes it means opening a book, accompanying waiting creatures and devoting your time — especially to those with four paws and a wagging tail.

A poster posted on the school bulletin board announced a compulsory activity: all students were required to complete twenty hours of community volunteer work within a week. I let out a silent sigh. Busy with endless exam preparations and an upcoming school basketball competition, I thought volunteering would only add extra trouble and boredom to my tight schedule.
Most of my classmates rushed to sign up for easy and comfortable positions like library sorting or animal shelter care. However, all these popular choices were fully occupied when I finally got the chance to sign up. The only volunteer task left was delivering meals to elderly residents in the downtown old community. Helplessly, I signed my name, counting down the days to finish the tiring task as soon as possible.
On my first volunteering day, I was assigned to deliver packed lunches to seniors living in old apartment buildings. These aging buildings had no elevators at all. Sweating in the hot summer weather, I carried heavy meal boxes and climbed countless stairs up and down. After just a few deliveries, my uniform was completely soaked with sweat.
It was then that I got to know Elaine. She opened the door extremely slowly, and I was almost about to leave, assuming no one was home. She was a small, elderly lady with a bent figure, and her simple apartment was filled with various old books, giving off a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. When I handed her the lunch box, she held my hands tightly with hers. “I haven’t talked to a young person for such a long time,” she said softly. I smiled awkwardly and promised to visit her again the next day.
I kept my word. Every day, I climbed the stairs to visit Elaine. Gradually, she opened up to me and shared her life stories: her peaceful childhood, her late husband who was a book lover and kept a collection of precious books, and her only son who worked in a distant city and seldom came back. She once told me that she still kept all her husband’s books carefully, as they could remind her of their warm old days. I always listened carefully during my short visits. Unexpectedly, the boring delivery work gradually turned into the most relaxing and warm part of my day.
On my final day of volunteer service, Elaine handed me a small package wrapped neatly in old newspaper. “Open it at home,” she said gently, wearing a mysterious and warm smile. The package felt firm and flat in my hand, and I could tell it held a square-shaped object with slight thickness.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

I unwrapped the package on my arrival home and found a book inside.
