Wondering what makes her journey so amazing? Hong Letong, a post-00s from Guangzhou, loved math when she was a kid. She joined an Olympic math training group in junior high. When she was only 14, she wrote “MIT” on her notebook-this brave dream would push her forward. “In the world of learning math, I feel like I’m traveling around the globe,” she once said. During high school, she was one of just four girls on Guangdong’s top math team, and her outstanding performance in the team then helped her win the Hua Luogeng Cup. At the age of 18, she entered MIT and broke records-finishing two degrees in three years with a perfect score of 4.9. She even got top prizes like the Morgan Prize, showing that her idea is true: “You have to push yourself hard to stand out.” In 2022, she studied neuroscience at Oxford with the famous Rhodes Scholarship. Later, she began studying for two PhD programs at Stanford. But she bravely quit all to start her company Axiom Math in 2024, aiming to build an AI that doesn’t just “guess” math answers, but gives solutions that can be checked as true. “Math is the best way to test smart AI,” she told a news group, explaining her big plan. In just four amazing months, her team’s AI solved two Erdos problems-super hard math questions that confused experts for 30 and 45 years! Hong’s story is full of good ideas. “Loving math is like seeing something wonderful.” She writes on her social media. Your age, your birthplace, or how things usually are-none of these can stop you if you love what you do. And this young AI math expert is a good example of that! 16.

He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar (太阳能的) light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and offered money to him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only made around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 21. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Leaving school. B. Doing homework. C. Having eye problems. 22. How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2? A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 23. Put the following information into correct order according to the passage. a. Evans went to a university. b. Thousands of people had safe light. c. His first solar lamp was invented. d. Kerosene lamps hurt Evans’ eyes. e. Recycled materials were used in the lamps. f. People from many countries gave away money. A. d-a-c-e-f-b B. a-d-f-e-c-b C. a-e-c-d-f-b 24. Why does the writer give Julia’s example in Paragraph 5? A. To share Julia’s experience. B. To show Evans’ influence. C. To describe Evans’ inventions. 25. What is Evans like according to the passage? A. Polite, talented and humorous. B. Humorous, clever and friendly. C.

Watch out! It might be a scam (诈骗). Police across China have reported more scams aimed at teenagers. For example, in Shanghai, 15 percent of those scammed were under 25, with the youngest just 7 years old, data in June showed. The scams often center around secrecy and fear. One common type involves online games. In Tongzhou district (区), Beijing, the police caught a group that offered teenagers “free” game skins. The teens were told to download programs that let scammers secretly control their phones and computers and steal money without needing a password. Some scams are trickier and harder to see through at first. In one case, a student got a video call from a stranger. The man wore a police-like uniform and showed a “case-filing notice (立案通知书)”. The student got so scared that he transferred (转账) 183,000 yuan from his father’s bank account, as the man asked. There are also part-time job scams. In these scams, scammers ask teens to pay money first, promising to pay them back with their “earnings” later. Although the methods are different, these scams usually follow three steps, according to Wang Qi, an official with Tongzhou police. First, scammers post fake ads (虚假广告) on social media, in video game chat rooms or in the comment sections of short-video apps. Then, they send a link or QR code (二维码) and trick teens into downloading apps with “remote (远程的) help” or “screen-sharing” features. Finally, scammers scare teens into keeping everything secret from their parents, then use the bank or payment details they get to steal money. In the future, the police plan to introduce new anti-scam (反诈) tools and share more cases. They will also continue public education in homes, schools and businesses. 26. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Online games are the main reason teenagers lose money. B. Online scams are targeting teenagers in more and more ways. C. Police are teaching teenagers how to avoid part-time job scams. 27. According to the passage, what did the scammers do to trick teenagers in Tongzhou district? A. They sold fake game skins at a low price. B. They posted part-time job ads in video game chat rooms. C. They used “free” gifts to make teens download dangerous programs. 28. What does the underlined word “trickier” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Harder to see through. B. Easier to deal with. C. More exciting to watch. 29. What can we infer from the passage? A. The police plan to depend on new anti-scam tools to fight online scams. B. Teenagers may face higher risks of being cheated online compared with adults. C. Teenagers may keep things secret from their parents when tricked by scammers. 30. How is the passage organized? A. Problem → Examples → Steps →Solution B. Introduction→ Comparison → Conclusion C. Story → Problem → Advice 【答案】26. B 27. C 28. A 29. C 30. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，配有一幅网络诈骗流程示意图（图中大部分文字模糊，可识别底部标注文字为“Fake Ad”“Link or QR Code”“Steal Money”），介绍了我国多地针对青少年的网络诈骗增多的现状，列举了常见的诈骗类型，说明诈骗的通用步骤，并介绍警方未来的反诈举措。 【26题详解】 根据文章第二段“Police across China have reported more scams aimed at teenagers.”，结合全文介绍的多种针对青少年的诈骗形式、诈骗流程及反诈相关内容，可知文章核心是网络诈骗正以越来越多的方式将青少年作为诈骗目标。 【27题详解】 根据文章第三段“In Tongzhou district (区), Beijing, the police caught a group that offered teenagers ‘free’game skins. The teens were told to download programs that let scammers secretly control their phones and computers and steal money without needing a password.”，可知北京通州的诈骗分子用“免费”游戏皮肤这类礼物，诱骗青少年下载危险程序。 【28题详解】 根据文章第四段“Some scams are trickier and harder to see through at first.”，句中and连接表意相近的并列内容，“harder to see through”是对trickier的补充说明，可推知trickier意为更难识破的。 【29题详解】 根据文章第六段“Finally, scammers scare teens into keeping everything secret from their parents, then use the bank or payment details they get to steal money.”，诈骗分子会吓唬青少年，让他们对父母隐瞒所有相关事情，由此可推断出青少年被诈骗分子欺骗时，可能会向父母保密。 【30题详解】 梳理全文行文逻辑：首先提出“针对青少年的诈骗案件增多”这一问题，接着列举游戏皮肤诈骗、冒充警察诈骗、兼职诈骗等具体案例，然后说明诈骗的三个通用步骤，最后介绍警方未来的反诈解决措施，符合“问题→例子→步骤→解决方案”的结构。 E (二) 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Procrastination is a common problem for many middle school students.

How many words can you memorize in 15 minutes? Well, some people can memorize 335 words. Some people are even more amazing. For example, someone once memorized the order of 2,530 playing cards in just one hour ! Just as there are sports competitions using our bodies, there are also sports competitions using our minds, such as the World Memory Championships. These were held in Wuhan, China, in 2019. There were many different events. For instance, the “brain athletes” had to remember as many names and faces as they could or as many words as possible in 15 minutes. While you might think that these competitors were all born with a strong memory, this is often not true. For example, one champion has an average memory, but he makes full use of memory techniques. So, if he wants to remember the names of the Great Lakes in the US and Canada, he thinks of HOMES, because each letter in HOMES stands for a different lake. Many competitors use what is called a “memory palace” to remember things. While most people are terrible at remembering lists, they are quite good at remembering where things are. Think about your bedroom. You can probably picture in your mind where everything in your bedroom is. Now, picture in your mind the things on the list in different places in your bedroom. Later, if you want to remember the words, all you need to do is remember the picture. Memory competitions are not for everyone, and not everyone is a brain athlete. On the other hand, some of their memory techniques may be useful to you in your studies. You should give them a try ! 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 56. When were the World Memory Championships held in Wuhan, China? ____________________________________________________________________ 57. Why does the champion use the word HOMES to remember the names of the Great Lakes? ____________________________________________________________________ 58. What is the “memory palace” mentioned in the passage used for? ____________________________________________________________________ 59. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese. ____________________________________________________________________ 60. What memory skill in the article would you like to try in your study? Why? ____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. In 2019. 57. Because each letter in HOMES stands for a different lake. 58. To remember things. 59. 虽然你可能认为这些参赛者都是天生拥有强大的记忆力，但这通常不是真的。 60. I’d like to try the “memory palace”. Because it helps me remember things by linking them to familiar places. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了世界记忆锦标赛的相关情况，说明记忆高手并非全都天生记忆力超群，他们会使用记忆技巧（如首字母缩写、记忆宫殿），并建议学生尝试使用这些技巧辅助学习。 【56题详解】 根据文章第2段“These were held in Wuhan, China, in 2019.”可知世界记忆锦标赛在武汉举办的时间是2019年。 【57题详解】 根据文章第3段“because each letter in HOMES stands for a different lake.”可推知冠军使用HOMES这个词是因为每个字母代表一个湖。故填Because each letter in HOMES stands for a different lake. 【58题详解】 根据文章第4段“Many competitors use what is called a ‘memory palace’ to remember things.”可推知“记忆宫殿”是用来记忆事物的。 【59题详解】 “While you might think that these competitors were all born with a strong memory, this is often not true.”译为“虽然你可能认为这些参赛者都是天生拥有强大的记忆力，但这通常不是真的”。“While”引导让步状语从句译为“虽然”，“born with a strong memory”译为“天生拥有强大的记忆力”，“this is often not true”译为“但这通常不是真的”。 【60题详解】 根据文章第4段关于“memory palace”的描述及最后一段建议学生尝试技巧的内容，结合个人情况作答，言之有理即可。 五、补全对话（共5小题，计10分） 阅读下面对话，在每个空白处填入一个适当的句子，使对话完整，合乎情境。 A: Hi, have you read the passage about Zhong Yang, the inspiring seed scientist?

B Have you ever seen a young genius (天才) who wrote down her MIT dream at the age of 14 and solved world-famous math problems with AI at 24? Wondering what makes her journey so amazing? Hong Letong, a post-00s from Guangzhou, loved math when she was a kid. She joined an Olympic math training group in junior high. When she was only 14, she wrote “MIT” on her notebook-this brave dream would push her forward. “In the world of learning math, I feel like I’m traveling around the globe,” she once said. During high school, she was one of just four girls on Guangdong’s top math team, and her outstanding performance in the team then helped her win the Hua Luogeng Cup. At the age of 18, she entered MIT and broke records-finishing two degrees in three years with a perfect score of 4.9. She even got top prizes like the Morgan Prize, showing that her idea is true: “You have to push yourself hard to stand out.” In 2022, she studied neuroscience at Oxford with the famous Rhodes Scholarship. Later, she began studying for two PhD programs at Stanford. But she bravely quit all to start her company Axiom Math in 2024, aiming to build an AI that doesn’t just “guess” math answers, but gives solutions that can be checked as true. “Math is the best way to test smart AI,” she told a news group, explaining her big plan. In just four amazing months, her team’s AI solved two Erdos problems-super hard math questions that confused experts for 30 and 45 years! Hong’s story is full of good ideas. “Loving math is like seeing something wonderful.” She writes on her social media. Your age, your birthplace, or how things usually are-none of these can stop you if you love what you do. And this young AI math expert is a good example of that! 16. How does the writer start this passage? A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples. C. By asking questions. 17. Where can we put “Won the Hua Luogeng Cup” in the following timeline? A. ① B. ② C. ③ 18. Why did Hong Letong start her company Axiom Math? A. To build an AI that can provide verifiable math solutions. B. To win more math prizes like the Morgan Prize. C. To finish her two PhD programs at Stanford faster. 19. What can we infer from Hong’s words “Loving math is like seeing something wonderful.”? A. Math is wonderful only for top students. B. Math is beautiful and enjoyable for its lovers. C. Math is much more challenging than it is enjoyable. 20. Which of the following best describes Hong Letong’s experience? A. Interest is the best teacher. B. Every coin has two sides. C. Think twice before you act. C Evans Wadongo was from a village in Africa. He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar (太阳能的) light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and offered money to him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only made around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 21. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Leaving school. B. Doing homework. C. Having eye problems. 22. How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2? A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 23. Put the following information into correct order according to the passage. a. Evans went to a university. b. Thousands of people had safe light. c. His first solar lamp was invented. d. Kerosene lamps hurt Evans’ eyes. e. Recycled materials were used in the lamps. f. People from many countries gave away money. A. d-a-c-e-f-b B. a-d-f-e-c-b C. a-e-c-d-f-b 24. Why does the writer give Julia’s example in Paragraph 5? A. To share Julia’s experience. B. To show Evans’ influence. C. To describe Evans’ inventions. 25. What is Evans like according to the passage? A. Polite, talented and humorous. B. Humorous, clever and friendly. C. Hard-working, loving and creative. D Would you like a cool in-game skin for free? Watch out! It might be a scam (诈骗). Police across China have reported more scams aimed at teenagers. For example, in Shanghai, 15 percent of those scammed were under 25, with the youngest just 7 years old, data in June showed. The scams often center around secrecy and fear. One common type involves online games. In Tongzhou district (区), Beijing, the police caught a group that offered teenagers “free” game skins. The teens were told to download programs that let scammers secretly control their phones and computers and steal money without needing a password. Some scams are trickier and harder to see through at first. In one case, a student got a video call from a stranger. The man wore a police-like uniform and showed a “case-filing notice (立案通知书)”. The student got so scared that he transferred (转账) 183,000 yuan from his father’s bank account, as the man asked. There are also part-time job scams. In these scams, scammers ask teens to pay money first, promising to pay them back with their “earnings” later. Although the methods are different, these scams usually follow three steps, according to Wang Qi, an official with Tongzhou police. First, scammers post fake ads (虚假广告) on social media, in video game chat rooms or in the comment sections of short-video apps. Then, they send a link or QR code (二维码) and trick teens into downloading apps with “remote (远程的) help” or “screen-sharing” features. Finally, scammers scare teens into keeping everything secret from their parents, then use the bank or payment details they get to steal money. In the future, the police plan to introduce new anti-scam (反诈) tools and share more cases. They will also continue public education in homes, schools and businesses. 26. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Online games are the main reason teenagers lose money. B. Online scams are targeting teenagers in more and more ways. C. Police are teaching teenagers how to avoid part-time job scams. 27. According to the passage, what did the scammers do to trick teenagers in Tongzhou district? A. They sold fake game skins at a low price. B. They posted part-time job ads in video game chat rooms. C. They used “free” gifts to make teens download dangerous programs. 28. What does the underlined word “trickier” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Harder to see through. B. Easier to deal with. C. More exciting to watch. 29. What can we infer from the passage? A. The police plan to depend on new anti-scam tools to fight online scams. B. Teenagers may face higher risks of being cheated online compared with adults. C. Teenagers may keep things secret from their parents when tricked by scammers. 30. How is the passage organized? A. Problem → Examples → Steps →Solution B. Introduction→ Comparison → Conclusion C. Story → Problem → Advice E (二) 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Procrastination is a common problem for many middle school students.
