Local Hero
Local Hero digs into the conflict between a giant US oil company and a faraway Scottish village when the former plans to build an oil company. However, the exceptionally captivating landscapes and the firm attitude of the villagers impact the company’s decision. The story has been a lasting appeal to audiences, even after over four decades.
Kes
British director Ken Loach’s first successful film, Kes, describes the touching narrative of a young Yorkshire boy taking the journey of capturing and training an eagle. The film offers a unique description of Yorkshire, filled with engaging sights.

Calvary
Irish director Michael McDonagh’s films set in Ireland are undoubtedly enchanting, often including Ireland’s picturesque scenery into the story. Among these, Calvary, stands out. It records the difficult and tiring journey of a moral priest (牧师), dealing with the evil forces within his area.

One of the basic expectations the public have of doctors is honesty. But what would you think if I told you that research has shown that 70 percent of doctors admitted to lying to their patients
This seems unimaginable but I have told lies to several patients whose spouses (配偶) had died. Mrs. Walton was in her eighties and desperate to see her husband. She’d been in hospital after a fall and was in pain. She called out for him frequently and couldn’t understand why he wasn’t there to comfort her. She was becoming more upset and would try to get up to find him, in spite of being at risk of falling again. “He’s on his way, don’t worry,” the nurses would say and this would calm her down. She’d smile and roll her eyes and say how he was always late for things and tell the same story about him being late for their wedding nearly 60 years ago.
Part of the natural history of many of the dementias (痴呆), in particular Alzheimer’s disease which is what Mrs. Walton had, is that the sufferer loses their memory of recent events, but retains memories from the distant past. Sufferers are trapped forever in a puzzling past. It is strongly upsetting and tormenting. Many of the behavioral difficulties that I have seen in those with dementia relate to them feeling scared and confused that they are surrounded by strange people, even when they are surrounded by their family, because they have regressed back to decades ago. They look at their adult children confused and wonder who they could be because they think their children are still toddlers (幼童).
How does one address this I have had countless families break down in tears in clinics, not knowing what to say or how to react as their loved one moves further and further away from them back into their distant past and they are left behind in the present. The lies that doctors and nurses tell these patients are not big, elaborate lies — they are brief confirmations intended to comfort and allow the subject to be swiftly changed. It is, when done in the right way, kind and compassionate. Sometimes, honesty is simply not the best policy.
24.Why did the nurses lie to Mrs. Walton
A.To persuade her into taking medicine. B.To comfort her and change the subject.
C.To stop her complaining about her husband. D.To bring her back to memories of old times.
25.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word in paragraph 3
A.Painful. B.Frightening.
C.Regretful. D.Confusing.
26.What can we infer from the text
A.The majority of the doctors are absolutely honest with their patients.
B.People suffering from dementias are stuck in distant memories.
C.Patients with dementias are usually frightened by unfamiliar people.
D.Individuals undergoing dementias are left behind by their loved ones.
27.What’s the author’s attitude towards doctors telling lies to certain patients
A.Disapproving. B.Neutral.
C.Indifferent. D.Supportive.
Tourists across China have enjoyed a chain of cultural events from traditional to modern, and discovered new destinations during this year’s five-day May Day holiday.
Items on China’s traditional intangible cultural heritage list proved to be popular with travelers in many regions. In Lantian county, northwest China’s Shanxi Province, tourists were amazed by the art of Dawaz, which means aerial tightrope (空中钢丝) walking in the Uygur language. Meanwhile, in east China’s Changzhou City, music festivals attracted huge crowds of travelers, and local authorities introduced measures to ensure the comfort of visitors. They arranged 500 coaches for long-distance travel, set up more than 10,000 free parking spaces and extended the operation hours of the subway network until 11:30 p. m.
And it’s not just big cities that drew in visitors during this holiday. Holiday makers decided to go for natural views, less-crowded scenic spots, and cost-effective travel experiences. Data from Chinese travel booking platform Ctrip showed that orders for fourth-tier and below cities increased by 140 percent on a yearly basis, outperforming those in first and second-tier cities.
Wu Sa, deputy director of the Economic Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission, expressed belief that the popularity of usual major destinations like Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Hangzhou and Chengdu is not decreasing, but explained that a good number of travelers are looking to diversify the range of their travels, towards new and previously lesser-known places.
Scientific and space projects have also been a hit travel destination this week, from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China to the world’s largest single-dish radio telescope in the southwestern province of Guizhou. “I mainly wanted to take my child to appreciate some of China’s leading space technology and the development trend of big data, so that he can understand the advanced technology of our motherland,” said a tourist named Hu Wannping.
28.What attracted tourists to the Changzhou City
A.The launch of appealing music festivals.
B.The Aerial tightrope walking performance.
C.The celebration of traditional cultural events.
D.The measures to provide comfort for tourists.
29.What may account for people’s choice of fourth-tier and below cities
A.Abundant parking spaces. B.Famous scenic spots.
C.Low travelling expenses. D.Convenient booking platforms.
30.What can be inferred from the text
A.The growth of visitors is causing various social issues.
B.Scientific and space projects receive the least attention.
C.Orders for major destinations in big cities are decreasing.
D.Tourists are open-minded as to the choices of spending holidays.
31.What can be the best title of the text
A.Festivals and Celebrations across China B.New Trend for Labor Day Tourist Destinations
C.The Popularity of Well-known Destinations D.China’s Traditional Intangible Cultural Heritage
In a world of music streaming services, access to almost any song is just a few clicks away online. Yet, the live performance lives on. People still fill sweaty basements, dirty fields and crowded concert halls to hear their favourite musicians play. And now neuroscientists might know why live music attracts the brain’s emotion centers more than its recorded one.
Concerts are immersive social experiences in which people listen to and feel the music together through key changes and rhythmic drops. Moreover, they are dynamic — artists can adapt their playing according to the crowd’s reaction.
It was this last difference that led neuroscientists, based at the Universities of Zurich and Oslo, to study the brain responses of people listening to music. In the “live” experiment, participants lay in an MRI scanner (扫描仪) listening to the music through earphones, while a pianist was positioned outside the room. The pianist was shown the participant’s real-time (实时的) brain activity as a form of feedback. In the recorded condition, participants listened to pre-recorded versions of the same music.
The scientists were interested in how live music affected the areas of the brain responsible for processing emotions, particularly the amygdala, an area deep inside the brain. The results, just published in the journal PNAS, showed that live music had a significantly greater emotional impact. Whether the music expressed happiness or sadness, live performances led to increased activity not only in the amygdala but also other parts of the brain’s emotion processing network. The researchers also found that participants’ brain activity tracked the acoustic (声学的) features of the music, like tempo and pitch, far more closely when it was played live.
While the study didn’t fully recreate the live concert experience, the findings suggest that artists’ ability to adjust their performance in real time contributes to the emotional connection with live music. Some musical companies now attempt to recreate live concerts, such as ABBA Voyage, an immersive pre-recorded VR concert, but without artists’ capability to read audience’s emotions and respond accordingly, it will never quite match the real thing.
32.Why do people attend live shows despite music streaming services online
A.Because they prefer being with friends at a concert.
B.Because they enjoy the process of finding popular music.
C.Because they value the emotional connection live music brings.
D.Because they intend to meet their favorite musicians in person.
33.The role of the pianist in the “live” experiment is to_________.
A.observe the participants’ brain activity as a form of feedback
B.provide live music accompaniment to participants inside the MRI scanner
C.compare the effectiveness of live performances and recorded ones
D.show participants’ ability to read and respond to the audience’s emotions
34.What did the study published in PNAS find about the impact of live music on the brain
A.Live music affected only the amygdala of the brain.
B.The participants’ brain activity didn’t react to live music.
C.Live music had a reduced emotional impact compared to recorded music.
D.The participants’ brain responded more greatly to acoustic features of live music.
35.What does the author suggest by mentioning ABBA Voyage in the last paragraph
A.It lacks artists’ response based on audience’s feedback.
B.It matches the sound quality of live performances.
C.It greatly stirs up the audience’s emotional response.
D.It fails to create a perfect performing atmosphere.
People these days are posting about their lives on social media. But what if you’re a private and introverted person like me What if you want to live in the moment instead of sharing every bit of your life To be honest, it’s nobody’s business but your own. 36 Escape stalkers (跟踪者).
I’ve been a public person as a jazz vocalist for years. It exposed me to stalkers who felt they knew me, just because I was present everywhere. Needless to say, it brought me much anxiety and stress. At some point I asked myself — is being visible more important than my peace of mind 37 The answer is a clear NO. I just want to spend life doing what I love with the people I love. Protect privacy.
38 I need alone time to process what I’m struggling with and honest real talks with the people I trust. I might share a lesson learned from an experience, but now I won’t. I know that by keeping my life private on social media I may miss out on some connections, but I honor and respect the people in my life who value their privacy, so I am being mindful and protect that.
39
Another reason I keep my life private is that I prefer to be in the present moment and appreciate it fully. To be on your phone constantly, or to film everything you do, can be quite disrespectful to the people you spend your time with. You lose out on those spontaneous (自发的) moments and a deeper connection. I choose what I share and when I share it, and the rest is for experiencing life without expectations.
Live your life fully, regardless of whether the world knows it or not! 40 I just want you to know it’s OK if you don’t.
A.Experience a private life.
B.Live in the moment.
C.Don’t I really care about privacy
D.Are my followers more important than my friends and family
E.If you feel like sharing your life openly without hesitation, go for it.
F.Here are my reasons for not sharing my personal life on social media.
G.It can be quite challenging to go through tough moments with everyone watching.

七、书面表达
77.阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Oops. Colored rice poured out of Manju's paper cone (锥形) and showered across the floor. “I’m sorry.” he told his grandmother, Kamala. He rushed to clean up the spill. Would Kamala still let him help with the rangoli (印度地画艺术)
The rangoli was a good-luck charm. Kamala made one every Diwali (排灯节), the Hindu festival of lights and the start of the new year. First, she would draw on the floor with chalk. Then, she would fill the drawing with uncooked colored rice.
This year, Manju was old enough to help-to be a good assistant. But so far, he’d only made a mess.
“Don’t worry,” Kamala said, smiling at him. “It takes practice.”
Manju tried again. He rolled paper into a cone and filled it with rice. He paused before cutting the tip off the cone. Side by side, they made rice flow through the narrow cut slowly and carefully across the drawing. After a while, Manju glanced over at Kamala. He frowned. “You’ve finished a lot. I’ve done hardly any.”
“You’re doing a good job,” Kamala said. “Gaps (空白) bring bad luck. But your side looks nice and tight.”
Manju kept working. Sometimes his rice skittered (掠过) outside the drawing. Sometimes he used the wrong color. And sometimes he blurred the outline, so Kamala had to redraw it. But slowly, the bright rice transformed into a beautiful peacock (孔雀).
The phone rang. “I’ll be right back,” Kamala said as she left to answer it.
Manju admired the peacock. Then he spotted a pinprick of tile (地砖的光点) peeking through on Kamala’s side. A gap! Should he fix it
I’ll surprise grandma! He decided. He stretched his arm across, trying to reach the gap with his left leg inching up. Almost there! Suddenly, Manju began to wobble. He spared no effort to fight for his balance but in vain.
“No!” He crashed down onto the rangoli, scattering rice everywhere. Manju scrambled off and pushed the rice back. But the colors were mixed, which totally ruined the peacock.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为80词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When Kamala came back, Manju looked upset.

【原文】
M: Good afternoon, I want to thank Professor Johnson for giving me the chance to talk to you today about Alaska. One of the things that concern me most is the future of the Alaska environment. About twenty years ago, before going on some wilderness research, I visited Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It was a small city of 40,000 people surrounded by a quiet wilderness. When I made a recent trip there, I found amazing changes. Anchorage now has a hundred and eight thousand people. There’re tall buildings, shopping centers and all the crowds and traffic jams. The forests and mountains are still nearby, but they seem so small compared to the city’s great size. The discovery of oil in Alaska brought increased wealth to the state. However, there have been too many people moving to Alaska in a very short period to work on the pipeline. There is not enough housing or transportation.
I think Alaska must make important decisions soon. Alaskans need to decide how to develop their natural resources and mineral wealth without destroying the wilderness and harming the wildlife. What is decided on now will affect the generations to come. For today’s lecture, I’ve brought along many of the pictures I usually show in my environmental science classes in my own university. First, I’ll show you some pictures of Alaska’s wilderness as it is today. Then I’d like to outline my specific suggestions.

76.Dear Chris,
I’m thrilled to invite you to be part of something truly special! We’re putting together a charity concert next month with the goal of raising funds to support students from economically disadvantaged families. It’ll be a night filled with heartwarming music and shared smiles in our school auditorium.
Now, here’s where you come in. We’ve been fans of your performances, and we’d be absolutely excited to have you share your gift with us. Here are a few ideas that might suit your style: If you fancy taking center stage, how about a solo piano performance of a classical piece It would be a showstopper! Or, if you’re up for it, a duet with other student musicians could be a magical collaboration that our audience would love.
I’d like to hear what you think. Just let me know by the end of this week. Looking forward to your reply and hopefully seeing you on stage!
Yours,
Li Hua

When Nanima came back, Manju looked upset. His head drooping, he murmured in an apologetic tone, “I’m so sorry. I should have waited for you.” To his surprise, Nanima shook her head, “You saw a problem and tried to fix it. I’m proud of you.” Then she continued to comfort, “Let’s restore it together.” The next few hours witnessed their picking up the rice and sorting each grain by color. It was not until nightfall that they finished the restoration. Nanima lit candles around the rangoli. In the flickering light, the peacock seemed alive with mystical powers. Manju exclaimed, “We did it! I could be a good assistant!” The new year must be full of good luck, thanks to Nanima—and him.
