When patrolling(巡逻) through deep mountains, Li Dongwei, a 39-year-old forest ranger(护林人), cannot hide his excitement when seeing traces of wild Siberian tigers. “It proves that Siberian tigers were here!” said Li, who lives in the city of Hunchun, a border city in Jilin Province.
Siberian tigers, also known as Amur tigers, mainly live in Russia's Far East and northeast China. Known as one of the world's most endangered species, about 500 Siberian tigers are believed to be living in the wild.
Li joined a local team of wildlife protection volunteers in 2012. He and his teammates marched deep into the mountains, patrolling on a regular basis to clear traps and install and maintain infrared cameras all year round. Even freezing cold and harsh natural conditions during the long winter season couldn't stop them. At the end of 2020, Li became the head of the rangers' team. So far, Li and his team have dismantled over 10,000 hunting tools and helped catch poachers(盗猎者) many times.
As China-Russia cooperation is vital to the protection of Siberian tigers, Li and his team also exchange experiences with Russian colleagues. Rangers from both countries compete in the protection of the rare tigers in its habitat in a bid to improve monitoring and patrolling techniques. In 2019, national parks of China and Russia—— the Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park and Russia's Land of the Leopard National Park signed a three-year cooperative action plan to strengthen cooperation in the protection of Siberian tigers and Amur leopards.
According to the latest data from the park's management bureau, the number of wild Siberian tigers and Amur leopards inhabiting the park has increased from 27 and 42 to 50 and60 respectively since 2017
As of now, Li has recruited more than 400 volunteers via the Internet. They brave harsh natural conditions not only to protect the rare “big cats”, but also to protect the common home of humanity.
24. According to the text, what may be a factor in Siberian tigers becoming endangered?
A. Climate change.B. Illegal-hunting.
C. Lack of food.D. Destruction of their habitats.
25. What is the meaning of the underlined word “dismantled” in paragraph 3?
A. Picked up.B. Taken down.
C. Put back.D. Taken advantage of.
26. What is the main idea of paragraph 4?
A. How to improve monitoring and patrolling techniques is vital.
B. China is playing a leading role in the protection of Siberian tigers.
C. Rangers from China and Russia are competing against each other.
D. Cooperation between China and Russia plays a critical role in protecting Siberian tigers.
27. What can we say about Li and his teammates' work?
A. It is quite dull and painstaking.
B. Their efforts to protect Siberian tigers were in vain.
C. It takes both bravery and skills to protect Siberian tigers.
D. Chinese rangers gained little in the cooperation with Russian ones.
C
Suppose you' re preparing for a tennis match. Your mind wanders, envisioning every possible outcome. Do you picture yourself in control? Or does your imagination toy with the idea of failure? The answer matters because it could affect your confidence and, ultimately, how well you will perform in the upcoming match. Although people don't take such moments spent in their imagination as seriously as they should, it can be just as vital as any physical practice, directly impacting your chances of success.
This is especially the case in high-pressure situations where what's happening inside your mind outweighs what's happening outside. Your imagination shapes how you interpret the world around you and is capable of causing the same physiological and emotional responses that are caused by external, real-life events. To take just one example, just as emotional pictures and sounds can cause the pupils to widen, so can emotional mental images in the mind.
Another phenomenon highlighting the significance of the imagination is called functional equivalence(对等), which refers to the way the brain doesn't always distinguish between imagining an action and physically doing it. For instance, when athletes vividly imagine running a race or sinking a basket, their brain scans reveal that the same neural circuits are activated as if they were physically performing the task. Other research with athletes using functional MRI(磁共振成像) has shown that mental practice engages regions of the brain involved in controlling the body and also activates areas linked to focus, motivation and emotional regulation.
The principle of functional equivalence extends beyond sports. In one study, pianists were asked to picture moving their fingers across the keys, hearing the tune, and seeing the sheet music. Astonishingly, the same motor areas in their brains lit up as when they actually played.
Many studies like this have proved the connection between mental imagery and real world performance. Whether you' re aiming to build confidence or prepare for a challenge, using your imagination with more intention could make all the difference. The key is to switch your mental channel to an image of capability, control and empowerment.
28. How does the author start the text?
A. By presenting a contextB. By explaining an opinion.
C. By giving a definition.D. By sharing an experience.
29. In which aspect can mental imagery cause the same effect as actual occurrences?
A. Requiring body movements.B. Initiating visual stimulations.
C. Affecting physical functions.D. Causing emotional responses.
30. In which case may functional equivalence occur?
A. A learner conducts a discussion with a professor.
B. A doctor imagines the procedure of an operation.
C. A pianist videos finger movements for perfection.
D. A speaker practices deep/ breathing before a speech.
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Mental imagery boosts your success.
B. Positive emotion prepares your life.
C. Imagination enhances your creativity.
D. Physical practice unlocks your potential.
D
In the challenging frontier of regenerative biology, scientists strive to uncover how complex organisms repair and reconstruct damaged tissuesThe starfish, an exceptional model in this field, has long captivated researchers with its ability to regenerate an entirely new individual from a tiny severed limb. This process is far from simply filling a wound; it involves a series of transformations in cell fate, governed by a complicated molecular network.
Recently, by integrating cutting-edge genetic lineage tracing and single-cell sequencing technologies, researchers have successfully shown the core driver of this remarkable regenerative capacity. They discovered that an ancient and highly conserved cellular communication system, known as the Wnt signaling pathway, acts as the “master regulatory core” in this process. When a starfish's arm is severed, cells at the injury site rapidly raise the expression of specific ligands(配体), thereby activating this pathway. Subsequently, the activated Wnt pathway functions like a dynamic three-dimensional genomic instruction set, precisely reprogramming the surrounding cells. It guides these cells to initiate an orderly sequence of increasing, directed migration, and ultimately drives their differentiation into all necessary cell types—— such as those forming muscles, nerves, and skeletons—— thereby perfectly restoring the lost organ- both structurally and functionally.
The profound significance of this breakthrough research lies in its potential value. It not only answers a fundamental question in developmental biology concerning forming the shape, but, more importantly, provides an enlightening natural example for the field of human regenerative medicine. The ultimate vision of scientists is to deeply decode this regenerative “source code” and, by drawing inspiration from its principles, design revolutionary strategies capable of reawakening the born-with repair potential of human tissues. This opens up new possibilities for addressing injuries and degenerative diseases that are currently incurable in medicine.
32. What controls starfish regeneration?
A. A complex molecular network.
B. A simple wound-healing process.
C. External environmental factors.
D. Random cell growth patterns.
33. How does the Wnt pathway work during regeneration?
A. It accelerates the renewing rate to supply energy for repair.
B. It constructs a physical framework to support new tissue growth.
C. It functions as an active genomic instruction set for cell reprogramming.
D. It primarily removes damaged or unnecessary cells from the injury site.
34. What is described as the ultimate objective of this line of research?
A. It enhances the survival rates of injured starfish.
B. It aims to document all genetic sequences in marine life.
C. It focuses on comparing different species regenerative abilities.
D. It seeks to translate a natural model into clinical solutions for humans.
35. What is the author's attitude toward the research on starfish regeneration?
A. Cautious and skeptical.
B. Objective and neutral.
C. Enthusiastic and hopeful.
D. Critical and dismissive.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines viral marketing as a method of marketing where consumers are encouraged to share information about a company's goods or services via the Internet.36For example, someone buys your product—— if they like it, they tell their friends how good it is. Then the friends go and buy the same product and like it and tell their friends until you have reached a huge market without spending anything on advertising.
Viral marketing provides enormous potential for companies to promote their products with minimal spending. An excellent example of how successful viral marketing can be is the case of Hotmail.
Hotmail was originally launched in 1996 and it grew faster than any other company in the history of the world. Within the first 18 months of its launch it had already signed up over 12 million subscribers.37: How do they do it? Well, according to Dr Ralph Wilson there are a number of elements that contribute towards a successful campaign.
● 38 . This may not seem like sound business practice as there is no immediate profit from the action, but viral marketing campaigns rely on patience. Once you have your potential customers using your free product you have the opportunity to sell them other desirable things, not to mention the possibilities you have for generating revenue through advertising.
●You must scale your supply. You are able to scale the campaign from small to large very rapidly. If your campaign is to be successful you must ensure that you can meet rapidly growing demand for your product or service.39, instead of increasing your business, your viral campaigns will start to kill it.
●You identify and exploit common motivations and behaviours. Most people are driven by a desire to be loved or popular or even financially better off. 40 ____
A. If demand exceeds your ability to supply them
B. You give away some form of free product or service
C. Basically, this isn't much different from word of mouth.
D. If it cannot put links on other people's websites or supply content to others
E. Internet is a reliable source of your product
F Many companies have since successfully used the power of the Internet to advertise
G. These desires are part of what generates the huge amount of Internet communication each day

Melody balanced on the half-pipe's edge, her heart pounding: The steep, concrete ramp challenged her to go down. She leaned forward and zoomed down. With her knees bent and arms out, she soared up the other side before swooping back.
Another skater, Patrick, cheered for her sidelines. He was a year ahead of Melody in the school, an effortless talent on the board , whom she had admired from afar before their friendship blossomed at this very skate park. “That was clean!” he called out.
“I got it on video!” Mom said, waving her phone proudly as Melody rolled to a stop. Behind her was the skate park's big back wall, painted with the iconic words, NO FEAR.
Melody smiled. She hoped to give an excellent performance at the school anniversary six weeks later, “Maybe I can be a role model for the younger students,” she thought. Nearby, a new girl named Achenyo was practicing basic moves, but her tries often ended in a fall.
Wanting to improve quickly, Melody went for another run. But just as she started, her board suddenly shot out from under her! Her arms swung wildly, and she hit the ground hard. A sharp pain immediately shot through her wrist. “Ow! My wrist!” she cried.
Patrick rushed over. “Are you okay?”
Mom was there seconds later. “Let’s get you to the doctor right away, sweetie,” she said softly but firmly.
At the clinic, Dr. Das carefully finished putting on the white cast(管型石膏).“Rest it for five weeks, and you should be as good as new,” he explained kindly. As they left, Melody glanced back and saw Achenyo still practicing in the distance, not giving up.

By the time the cast came off, Patrick came to ask Melody to the skate park together.
Finishing her run, Melody skated over to Achenyo, who was also practicing the skateboard nearby but just wiped out(跌落).
【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了获得高中毕业文凭所需满足的学分要求、新增的读写能力毕业要求以及社区参与活动的具体规定,
21.A.细节理解题。根据“Compulsory(必修的)credits”部分列出的具体学分,英语(4)+数学(3)+三门小组课程(3)十科学(2)一加拿大历史(1)+加拿大地理(1)+艺术(1)+健康与体育(1)+法语(1)+职业学习(0.5)+公民教育(0.5),总计18个必修学分;再根据“Optionalcredits”部分中的“Studentsmustearn12optionalcredits…(学生必须获得12个选修学分……)”可知,获得文凭所需的总学分最低为18+12=30个学分。Note中的“twoonline learningcredits”是包含在30个学分里。故A选项正确。
22.C。细节理解题。根据“Theliteracygraduationrequirement”部分明确指出的“InSeptember2024,theliteracy graduationrequirementwasintroducedanditbecameeffectiveimmediately.(读写能力毕业要求于2024年9月推出并立即生效。)”可知,读写能力毕业要求从2024年9月起生效。故C选项正确。
23.D。细节理解题。根据“Communityinvolvement”部分可知,所有学生在进行社区活动前都应“makesuretheyknow whichactivitiessatisfythecommunityinvolvementrequirement(确保他们知道哪些活动满足社区参与要求)”。而关于“haveadiscussionwiththeirparents…(与父母讨论……)”的要求,括号内特别注明“studentsunder18year soldonly(仅限18岁以下学生)”,因此,成年学生(18岁及以上)在活动前需要做的只是清楚了解合格的活动内容,而不需要获得父母许可故D选项正确。B、C选项文中未提及,A选项仅适用于未成年学生。
【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文,文章讲述了护林员李冬伟及其团队在深山中巡逻,通过清除捕猎工具、安装红外相机、开展国际合作等方式,致力于保护野生东北虎(西伯利亚度),并取得了显著成效的事迹。
24.B.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Liandhisteamhavedismantledover10,000huntingtoolsandhelpedcatch poachers(盗猎者)manytimes.(李和他的团队已拆卸了超过一万个捕猎工具,并多次帮助抓捕盗猎者。)”可推断.非法盗错是导致东北虎演危的一个重要因素。文章未直接提及气候变化(A选项)、食物短缺(C选项)以及栖息地破坏(D选项)是东北虎濒危的原因。故B选项正确。
25.B,词义推测题。画线词“dismantled”出现在第三段,其宾语是“huntingtools(捕猎工具)”。结合上下文可知,李冬伟团队的巡逻工作包括“tocleartraps(清除陷阱)”,且后续提到“helpedcatchpoachers(帮助抓捕盗猎者)”,因此、“dismantled”在此语境下最合理的含义是“拆除、清除(这些非法设置的捕猎工具)”。B选项“Takendown(取下,拆除)”与之意思最接近。A选项“Pickedup(拾起)”、C选项“Putback(放回)”、D选项“Takenadvantageof(利用)”均不符合语境。故B选项正确。
26.D。段落主旨题。第四段首句“AsChina-RussiacooperationisvitaltotheprotectionofSiberiantigers…(由于中俄合作对保护东北虎至关重要……)”是该段的核心论点。后文具体描述了双方的经验交流、技术竞争以及签署三年合作计划,都是对这一核心的支撑。因此,本段主旨是强调中俄合作在保护工作中的关键作用。D选项准确概括了此意。A选项“改进技术的重要性”是细节,非段落中心;B选项“中国起主导作用”在文中未体现:C选项“竞争”是合作中的具体方式,并非主旨。故D选项正确。
27.C。推理判断题。综合全文信息:李冬伟团队需要常年深入山区巡逻(需要勇气和耐力),清除陷阱、安装维护高科技红外相机(需要技能),并与俄罗斯同行交流经验、提升监测巡逻技术(体现国际合作与专业能力)。这些描述共同说明了他们的工作需要兼具“bravery(勇敢)”和“skills(技能)”。C选项全面概括了这一特征。A选项“相当枯燥无聊且艰苦”中的枯燥无聊不符合事实;B选项“努力白费”与文末老虎、豹子数量增长的事实相反:D选项“与俄合作收获甚微”与第四段描述的积极合作事实不符。故C选项正确。
【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章通过运动等领域的实例,探讨了心理意象(想象)对实际表现的重要影响,阐述了”功能性等价”原理,并论证了积极的心理想象能够提升自信与成功率。
28.A。写作手法题。作者在开篇提出了一个假设性的具体情境:“Supposeyou’repreparingforatennismatch...(假设你正在准备一场网球比赛……)”,并描述了在此情境下内心可能的活动。这属于通过呈现一个具体的情境或背景来引人主题,而非下定义(C选项)、解释观点(B选项)或分享个人经历(D选项)。故A选项正确。
29. D。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“… is capable of causing the same physiological and emotional responses that are caused by external, real-life events.(……能够引起与外部真实事件相同的生理和情绪反应。)”以及后续瞳孔扩大的例子可知,心理意象在引发情绪反应方面能够产生与实际事件相同的效果。D选项“引起情绪反应”准确地概括了这一点。A选项“需要身体运动”、B选项“启动视觉刺激”和C选项“影响身体功能”均非文中强调的与“实际事件”相同的核心效应。故D选项正确。
30. B。推理判断题。文章介绍的“功能性等价(functional equivalence)”指大脑在生动想象一个动作时,激活的神经回路与实际执行该动作时相同。文中举了运动员想象比赛和钢琴家想象弹琴的例子。因此,当一个人在脑海中生动地想象一个操作过程时,就可能发生功能性等价。B选项“一位医生设想手术过程”符合这一特征,属于纯粹的心理想象活动。A选项“与教授讨论”是实际的语言交流、C选项“录制手指移动视频”是实际行为、D选项“演讲前练习深呼吸”是实际的身体准备活动,均不属于文中定义的“想象(imagining)”范畴。故B选项正确。
31. A。主旨大意题。全文围绕“心理意象(想象)对实际表现的影响”展开。开篇以运动为例说明想象影响信心和表现,接着用科学原理(功能性等价)和多项研究证明心理练习能激活相关脑区,最后总结指出有意识地运用想象(特别是积极想象)能改变结果。因此.文章核心观点是心理意象能够促进(或提升)你的成功。A选项准确概括了这一主旨。B选项“积极情绪为生活做准备”偏离核心,文章重点在“想象”而非一般性的“积极情绪”;C选项“想象力增强创造力”中的“创造力”并非文章讨论焦点:D选项“身体练习释放潜力”偏离文章要点。故A选项正确。
【躇篇导读】这是一篇科普说明文。文章介绍了海星令人惊叹的肢体再生能力,并揭示了其背后由古老且高度保守的Wnt信号通路作为“核心调控中枢”的复杂分子机制。这一基础生物学研究的突破,为人类再生医学领域利用自身修复潜力治疗损伤和退行性疾病带来了新的启示与希望。
32. A。细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“This process... governed by a complicated molecular network.(这个过程……由一个复杂的分子网络所调控。)”可知,控制海星再生过程的并非简单的伤口愈合(B选项),而是复杂的分子网络(A选项)。C选项“外部环境因素”和D选项“随机的细胞生长模式”在文中均未提及。故A选项正确。
33. C。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the activated Wnt pathway functions like a dynamic three-dimensional genomic instruction set, precisely reprogramming the surrounding cells(被激活的 Wnt通路就像一个动态的三维基因组指令集,精确地重编程周围的细胞)”可知,Wnt通路在再生过程中的作用正是作为一个活跃的基因组指令集来指导细胞重编程。C选项与此描述完全一致。A选项“加速代谢供能”、B选项“构建物理框架”、D选项“清除损伤细胞”、均非文中描述的 Wnt通路的核心功能。故C选项正确。
34. D。推理判断题。根据最后一段,尤其是“provides an enlightening natural example for the field of human regenerative medicine(为人类再生医学领域提供了一个具有启发性的自然范例)”以及“design revolutionary strategies capable of reawakening the born-with repair potential of human tissues(设计能够重新唤醒人体组织先天修复潜能的革命性策略)”可知,这项研究的最终目标是将从海星等自然模型中获得的知识,转化为能够应用于人类的临床解决方案。D选项准确概括了这一目标。受伤海星是研究的直接观察对象.“提高受伤海星存活率”并非最终人文目的,A选项错误。B选项“记录海洋生物基因序列”和C选项“比较不同物种再生能力”均非核心目标。故D选项正确。
35. C。作者在文中使用了如“profound significance ”“enlightening natural example ”“ultimate vision”和“opens up new possibilities”等积极且充满展望的表述,明确体现了其对这一研究的热情与抱有希望。故选C。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐释了病毒式营销的定义,并以 Hotmail为例说明其巨大潜力,接着详细分析了病毒式营销成功的三个关键要素,包括提供免费产品、快速扩大规模以及利用大众心理动机。
36. C。空格处位于首段定义之后,具体例子之前。前句是牛津词典对“病毒式营销”的学术定义,空格后则用“某人购买产品后告诉朋友”的例子进行具体说明。因此,空格处需要一个承上启下的句子,将抽象定义与通俗例子联系起来。C选项“Basically, this isn’t much different from word of mouth(基本上,这与口碑营销没有太大区别)”中, “this”指代前文的“viral marketing”,将之与更广为人知的“口碑营销”类比,自然引出下文的口语化解释和例子。故C选项正确。
37. F。该段以 Hotmail的成功案例为主体。空格前详细描述了 Hotmail在1996年推出后用户量激增的现象。空格后提出“How do they do it?”并引入 Wilson博士总结的成功要素。因此,空格处需要一个既能承接 Hotmail案例,又能引出下文“成功要素”讨论的过渡句。F 选项“Many companies have since successfully used the power of the Internet to advertise(此后,许多公司都成功地利用了互联网的力量进行广告宣传)”中的“since”与上文历史案例形成时间关联,“Many companies”将话题从 Hotmail的个案扩展到普遍现象,为下文总结通用成功要素做好了铺垫。故F选项正确。
38. B。空格处是本段的起始句.也是第一个要素的总结句。根据下文“This may not seem like sound business practice...”及“Once you have your potential customers using your free product”并结合常识可判断, “This”即指代“give away free product or service”这一行为,逻辑连贯。故B选项正确。
39. A。空格处位于第二个要素“快速扩大规模”的说明部分。前句强调必须“满足快速增长的需求(meet rapidly growing demand)”,空格后是一个负面结果“病毒式活动会开始损害你的业务(your viral campaigns will start to kill it)”。因此,空格处应是一个导致这一负面结果的条件假设。A选项“If demand exceeds your ability to supply them(如果需求超过了你的供应能力)”完美地构成了这个条件从句,其中“demand”与“supply”直接呼应上文的" growing demand”,并逻辑严密地引出下文的负面后果。故A选项正确。
40. G。空格处位于第三个要素“利用共同动机和行为”的段落末尾。前句列举了“被爱、受欢迎、经济状况更好(a desire to be loved or popular or even financially better off)”等几种常见的欲望驱动。空格处需要一个对这些“欲望”进行总结或引申说明的句子。G 选项“These desires are part of what generates the huge amount of Internet communication each day.(这些欲望是每天产生海量网络交流的部分原因。)”中, “These desires”精准指代前文列出的几种欲望,并进一步解释了这些心理动机与病毒式营销赖以实现的“网络交流/传播”之间的因果关系,有效地结束了本段论述。故G选项正确。
41. B。考查名词词义辨析。句意:一股寒风吹来,这是一个警告。A. pressure 压力,压强;B. warning 警告;C. prediction 预测;D. impression印象。前句描述寒风盘旋,结合南极极端环境及后文隐藏的危险(冰裂缝)可知,此处将这股寒风比喻为对潜在危险的“警告(warning)”最符合语境,能烘托紧张氛围并为下文遇险埋下伏笔。其他选项均无法准确体现环境与危险的关联。故B选项正确。
42. A。考查介词短语辨析。句意: Elaine知道天气可能瞬息万变。A. in a heartbeat 瞬息之间,立刻;B. in a row 连续地;C. in a hurry 匆忙地;D. in a way在某种程度上,某种意义上。根据南极气候特点及后文天气突变导致险情的情节可知,此处强调天气变化速度之“快”。“in a heartbeat”生动地比喻变化发生得极其迅速,符合语境。故A选项正确。
43. C。考查名词词义辨析。句意:尽管冰原看起来坚固,但其冰盖始终处于持续运动之中。A. evolution进化;B. consumption 消耗;C. motion 运动,移动;D. progression 前进,进展。根据冰川学常识,冰川是缓慢流动的,且后文提到隐藏的冰裂缝(crevasses),可知冰盖并非静止,而是“处于持续运动(in constant motion)”状态。故C选项正确。
44. B。考查动词词义辨析。句意:一排排蓝红色的旗帜在这片危险区域标记出一条安全路径。A. strengthened加强;B. marked标记;C. decorated 装饰;D. crossed 穿过,交叉。在极地科考中,常用旗帜“标记(mark)”出安全路线以避开冰裂缝等危险。B选项最符合语境和常识。A、C选项与“安全路径”的功能不符,D 选项“crossed”与“a safe path”搭配不当。故 B选项正确。
45. C。考查介词及短语辨析。句意:接近企鹅是违反规定的。A. for为了,赞成;B. among在……中;C. against 违反,反对;D. by在……旁边。此处需一个介词后接“the rules”表示“违反规定”。“against the rules”是固定搭配。among the rules表示“在规则中”, by the rules 表示“遵循/按照规定”,故C选项正确。
46. C。考查动词词义辨析。句意:她屏住呼吸,专注地看着那只摇摇摆摆向她走来的企鹅,心里默念着让它继续过来。A. considered 考虑;B. permitted允许;C. willed 意欲,决心(尤指通过意志力促使);D. forced 强迫。此处描述Elaine强烈的心理活动,她全神贯注.内心“祈望”或“想要,意欲(willed)”企鹅向她走来,C选项符合语境且与前文“concentrated”呼应。故C选项正确。
47. A。考查形容词词义辨析。句意:很快,这只企鹅就站在她面前,目光与她的目光齐平对视。A. level齐平的,水平的;B. parallel 平行的;C. opposite 相反的,对面的;D. equal 平等的。描述人与企鹅对视,目光“齐平(level)”最符合常理和语境,强调视线高度的一致。B选项“parallel”多指线条方向平行,用于视线不如“level”贴切。故A 选项正确。
48. D。考查副词词义(逻辑衔接)辨析。句意:下意识地,她顶着吹来的风,跟着这只企鹅往更远的冰面走去,远离了考察站。A. Fortunately 幸运地;B. Reluctantly不情愿地;C. Intentionally 故意地,有意地;D. Unconsciously 不知不觉地,下意识地。根据前文讲到 Elaine对企鹅的着迷和专注可知,此处的跟随更可能是一种被吸引后下意识的、未经理性权衡的举动,而非“幸运地”、“不情愿地”或“故意”,这也能解释其忽视潜在危险的行为。故D选项正确。
49. D。考查动词短语辨析。句意:如果她强硬突破此困局的话,就会落入冰缝,将无人能找到她。A. broke out突然爆发;B. broke down崩溃,瓦解;C. broke in 破门而人;D. broke through突破。D选项最能描述 Elaine此时的困境。故D选项正确。
50. A。考查动词词义辨析。句意:接着,风渐渐平息了。A. died 平息,消失(常与 down, away连用);B. followed跟随;C. returned 返回;D. worsened变得更糟。根据后文“In a sudden quiet(在突如其来的寂静中)”可知,风停了。“died(down)”特指(风、声音等)逐渐减弱至消失,最符合语境。故A选项正确。
51. B。考查动词词义辨析。句意:她周围像蜘蛛网一样布满了裂缝。A. declined 下降,拒绝;B. spiderwebbed 像蜘蛛网般扩散/密布;C. melted融化;D. accumulated 积累。此处描述脆弱的冰面上以 Elaine为中心“出现(遍布)”众多裂缝的景象。“spiderwebbed”作动词用,生动形象地描绘了裂缝快速蔓延、纵横交错的危险状态。故 B选项正确。
52. B。考查形容词词义辨析。句意:她将双臂像翅膀一样摊开在冰上,保持身体平贴,将体重分散到脆弱冰面的各处。A. flexible 灵活的;B. flat平坦的,平贴的;C. twisted扭曲的;D. bent弯曲的。在薄冰上为分散压力、防止冰裂,需要将身体尽量“平贴(flat)”在冰面上,这是极地求生的常用技巧。故B选项正确。
53. C。考查非谓语动词词义辨析。句意:她用腹部推动身体前进,一寸一寸地挪动。A. rushing冲,奔;B. sliding 滑动;C. inching缓慢移动,渐进;D. diving潜水,俯冲。在易碎的冰面上移动必须极度缓慢谨慎。“inching”作动词,意为“一点一点地移动”,精确描述了缓慢匍匐的状态。故C选项正确。
54. A。考查动词短语辨析。句意:Elaine在后面艰难地跟随,当她专注于跟随企鹅的路线时,已经忘记了时间。
A. losing track of 忘记,失去……的线索;B. losing control of 失去对……的控制;C. taking note of 注意到;
D. running out of 用完。在极度紧张、全神贯注的求生过程中,“忘记时间(losing track of time)”是符合逻辑的心理描写。故A 选项正确。
55. D。考查名词词义辨析。句意:最后,Elaine用双臂最后一次拉拽/发力,跟着她的企鹅爬到了坚实、洁白的冰面上。A. raise 提高,增加;B. wave 挥动,波浪;C. shake 摇晃;D. pull 拉,拽。在冰面上匍匐前进,尤其是在脱离险境的最后关头;手臂的“拉拽(pull)”动作能更准确地描述她利用上肢力量将自己身体向前牵引的动作,比“raise”“wave”“shake”都更贴切。故 D 选项正确。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国“四大名陶”之一的建水紫陶,重点阐述了其融合多民族文化元素的独特技艺“阴刻阳填”及“断简残贴”风格,并探讨了这项传统手工艺在现代的可持续传承与发展,突显其作为文化桥梁连接过去与现在的价值。
56. has been shaped,考查动词时态和语态。句意:其历程可追溯至元代,迄今为止,一直深受汉族文化与当地民族传统融合的深刻塑造。分析句子可知,主语 Its journey与动词 shape之间为被动关系(被塑造)。根据时间状语“so far(迄今为止)”可知,动作从过去持续到现在并可能继续,需用现在完成时。故填现在完成时的被动语态形式 has been shaped。
57. The。考查冠词。句意:其典型技艺——“阴刻阳填”,涉及将书法绘画精心刻于陶坯。空格后“typical technique”指代前文已提及的建水紫陶的独特技艺,此处为特指,应用定冠词 The。故填 The。
58. inlaid,考查非谓语动词/形容词。句意:凹槽随后填入对比色的泥料,从而形成一种独特的、镶嵌式的艺术效果。空格处常用形容词修饰名词短语“artistic effect”。动词inlay的过去分词形式 inlaid可作形容词,意为“被镶嵌的”,符合语境。故填 inlaid。
59. Beyond/ Besides。考查介词。句意:除了技术(本身),这种陶器还充当了文化对话的载体。空格位于句首,后接名词“technique”,引导的短语作状语。根据上下文逻辑,前段讲技艺,本段讲其文化内涵,此处表示递进或补充,意为“除了……之外”。beyond强调超越技术本身,besides强调除了技术,都可以。故填 Beyond/ Besides。
60. where。考查定语从句。句意:这种风格视觉上呈现了当地文化的层次性与包容性,其中汉族的文学雅致与受彝族文字或哈尼梯田启发的生动图案共存。分析句子可知,空格后引导定语从句修饰先行词“the layered and inclusive nature of local culture”,且在从句中作地点状语(在这种文化性质/环境中),应用关系副词 where。故填 where。
61. that。考查强调句型。句意:正是这种结合,使得每一件作品都成为数个世纪民族交流与融合的见证。分析句子结构可知,“It is this combination 61 makes each piece…”为“It is/ was+被强调部分+ that/ who+其他”的强调句型,被强调部分为“this combination”(物),应用 that 引导。故填 that。
62. modernization。考查名词。句意:如今,面对现代化,这项工艺正在探索一条可持续的传承之路。facing 后需接名词作宾语。动词 modernize的名词形式为 modernization,意为“现代化”。故填 modernization。
63. steadily。考查副词。句意:匠人们正在探索当代应用,同时稳步地保护核心技艺。空格位于连词 while之后,修饰现在分词短语“preserving core techniques”,需用副词形式。形容词 steady的副词形式为 steadily。故填 steadily。
64. to be carried。考查非谓语动词。句意:其目标不仅仅是维持一项传统,更是确保其生命力,让这种历史智慧的载体得以传承至未来。分析句子可知,“allowing this representative of historical wisdom 64(carry) forward”中,allow的用法为 allow sb/ sth to do sth,且“this representative(这种代表物)”与“carry”之间为被动关系(被传承),故应用动词不定式的被动形式 to be carried。故填 to be carried。
65. bridging。考查非谓语动词。句意:因此,建水紫陶依然是文化延续性的永恒象征,以其永恒的美感和深刻的故事,连接着过去与现在。分析句子可知,空格处所在部分“65(bridge) the past and present…”为状语,表示伴随状态或结果。逻辑主语 Jianshui Purple Pottery 与 bridge 之间为主动关系,故用现在分词形式 bridging。故填bridging。

Food Waste: An Urgent Call for Change
Not until recently have I realized how alarming the food waste is around us, especially during festive gatherings. It is estimated that approximately 35 million tons of food are wasted yearly in China, accounting for nearly 6% of our total grain output.
What are the reasons behind this pervasive issue? It is often the desire to display hospitality that leads to excessive ordering, while a lack of awareness about resource scarcity further worsens the situation. Additionally, improper meal planning also contributes.
Therefore, it is crucial that we take collective action. Let's start by ordering wisely and embracing portion sharing during the upcoming Spring Festival meals. Moreover, developing a habit of packing leftovers can significantly reduce waste. Through our efforts, a thriftier society can be built.

【参考范文】
By the time the cast came off, Patrick came to ask Melody to the skate park together. The moment her board wheels touched the ground, a cold wave of doubt washed over her——— what if I fall again? The half-pipe stood beforeher, the bold “NO FEAR” on the wall now seeming a distant challenge. “Lean forward. Trust your board,” Patrick urged, his voice steady. Beside him, Mom's firm nod silently conveyed faith. No fear, Melody whispered inwardly. She took a deep breath and dropped in. With knees bent and arms balanced, she gained speed and soared. This time, the flight felt different——a triumph of will. Her heart hammered not with panic, but with purpose as she completed the run smoothly.
Finishing her run, Melody skated over to Achenyo, who was also practicing the skateboard nearby but just wiped out(跌落). The girl sat on the ground, frustration clear on her face.“Hey,” Melody said, kneeling beside her. “That was a brave try. I took a bad fall here too.” The girl looked up. Melody smiled, pointing to the towering wall. “See that sign? ‘NO FEAR.’ It doesn't mean having no fear; it means keeping going with it.” She offered a hand and demonstrated balancing techniques. For the next hour, patience and persistence filled the park. With each small success, the girl's confidence grew. In that moment, Melody understood deeply: true courage meant facing challenges head-on, whether conquering a ramp or helping someone up. And sometimes, the bravest act was extending a hand—to a stranger, or to one's own trembling self.
