（2025·永州模拟）During my undergraduate years in Kerala, India, a severe flood changed my life. One morning, I was urgently awakened by a friend informing me that heavy rain had caused flooding in our area. Outside, the scene was chaotic: families trapped on rooftops, children crying for help, and hospital patients being evacuated (疏散). My friends and I immediately joined the rescue efforts, distributing food to those affected. This experience had a profound impact on me, leading me to a new career path.
I had initially pursued civil engineering, inspired by my dream of designing buildings. However, as my studies progressed, I became more interested in research. The flood clarified my direction. After volunteering in affected communities that summer, I decided to focus on natural disasters. I applied for a master's program in development studies, a multidisciplinary (多学科的) course covering sustainable development, geography, and economics, with hands-on community projects. This decision greatly surprised my friends and family, who questioned why I was leaving engineering for social sciences. They worried about my job prospects, but I was determined to follow my passion.
The program exposed me to projects helping communities plan for climate change, strengthening my belief in this path. I then applied for a Ph. D., despite financial uncertainty and the challenge of switching fields. Many universities preferred candidates with consistent academic backgrounds, and I faced rejections and skepticism during interviews. However, one program accepted me, allowing me to study how better water resource management and policy can help vulnerable populations adapt to climate change uncertainties.
Starting the Ph. D. was exciting but challenging. Now, three years into my program, I am confident in my decision. The challenges are worth it, as I can dive into an issue I care deeply about and potentially help people. My journey has taught me that following your heart, even on an unconventional path, is the right choice.
4．What does the writer want to show by mentioning the flood experience
A．The urgency of rescue efforts.
B．The necessity of distributing food.
C．Its significant effect on his career path.
D．Its disastrous consequences for the residents.
5．How did the writer's friends and family feel about his career decision
A．They felt happy and proud. B．They felt angry and confused.
C．They felt doubtful and dismissive. D．They felt shocked and concerned.
6．Which of the following best describes the writer's application process for a Ph. D.
A．Eventful. B．Unbearable. C．Delightful. D．Effortless.
7．What can we learn from the text
A．Challenges are unavoidable.
B．We should think before we act.
C．We should pursue our dreams despite conventions.
D．Following others' advice helps make right decisions.

（2025·永州模拟）Being struck by lightning is something humans generally try to avoid. But for at least one tropical tree species, this might be a good thing.
Scientists have long believed that being hit by lightning could have only negative effects on trees. "Your best-case scenario (设想) is that you're kind of okay, and your worst-case scenario is: you explode in a million bits," says Evan Gora, a forest ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies in New York State. But after spending many years studying the effects of lightning on rainforests, Gora began wondering whether trees could not only survive this usually deadly event but also actually get some kind of advantage from it.
To find out, he and his colleagues spent several years following the fate of 93 trees from various species in the rainforest of central Panama when they were directly struck by lightning. Nine were from a species known as the almendro (油蜡豆树), a forest giant native to Central and South America that can grow up to 165 feet tall. After the trees were struck, the researchers continued to monitor the ones that survived the shock, checking their overall condition.
The results showed that the almendro trees were very resistant to lightning and minimally damaged. A few other large species also survived the strikes and might have benefitted as well, but lightning had not struck enough of these species for the researchers to be certain. The researchers also assume that the almendro might have evolved to attract lightning — or at least not to avoid it, as most other trees have. Almendro trees' wide crown (树冠) and tall height. which enhance its chance of being hit, make it a living lightning rod (避雷针). Gora thinks similar abilities to benefit from lightning might be widespread across other species and types of forests.
Allan Carroll, a disturbance ecologist at the University of British Columbia, who wasn't involved in the research, says, "The findings of the study are quite novel and make a significant contribution to our knowledge of plant evolution."
8．Why does the author quote Evan Gora
A．To show a fact. B．To support a point.
C．To explain a concept. D．To illustrate a phenomenon.
9．How did researchers study the effects of lightning on trees
A．They checked the related data yearly.
B．They tracked the subjects for a long time.
C．They compared the height of different trees.
D．They recorded the frequency of lighting occurrences.
10．What can we learn from paragraph 4
A．Almendro trees are likely to attract lightning.
B．The result of the research is totally convincing.
C．Being resistant to lightning is common to trees.
D．Almendro trees can get sheltered from lightning.
11．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．How do trees conduct electricity
B．How are trees protected from lightning
C．Can tree species benefit from lightning
D．Can lightning harm rainforest ecosystem
【答案】8．B
9．B
10．A
11．C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，科学家长期以来认为雷击对树木只有负面影响，但最新研究发现，中美洲和南美洲的本土巨树——油蜡豆树（almendro）不仅能耐受雷击，甚至可能从中受益。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和标题归纳三个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
8．推理判断题。根据第二段中的"Scientists have long believed that being hit by lightning could have only negative effects on trees.‘Your best-case scenario (设想) is that you're kind of okay, and your worst-case scenario is: you explode in a million bits,'says Evan Gora, a forest ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies in New York State. "科学家们长期以来一直认为，被闪电击中只会对树木产生负面影响。纽约州卡里生态系统研究所的森林生态学家Evan Gora说："最好的情况是，你基本没事，而最坏的情况是，你会被炸得粉碎。"可知，作者引用Evan Gora的话是为了支持一个观点，即长期以来科学家认为雷击对树木只有负面影响。故选B。
9．细节理解题。根据第三段中的"To find out, he and his colleagues spent several years following the fate of 93 trees from various species in the rainforest of central Panama when they were directly struck by lightning. "为了找到答案，他和他的同事们花了几年时间追踪巴拿马中部热带雨林中93棵不同种类的树木在直接被闪电击中后的命运。可知，通过长时间追踪被雷击的树木，研究人员研究雷击对树木的影响。故选B。
10．细节理解题。根据第四段中的"The researchers also assume that the almendro might have evolved to attract lightning — or at least not to avoid it, as most other trees have. "研究人员还假设，油蜡豆树可能已经进化到吸引闪电——或者至少不像大多数其他树木那样避免闪电。可知，油蜡豆树有可能吸引闪电。故选A。
11．标题归纳题。根据第一段中的"But for at least one tropical tree species, this might be a good thing. "但对于至少一种热带树种来说，这可能是一件好事；以及全文内容可知，本文探讨的是某些树种是否可能从雷击中获得益处，"树种能从闪电中受益吗？"概括文章主旨，适合作本文标题。故选C。
（2025·永州模拟）Since the beginning of human history, somewhere over 300,000 years ago, intellectual curiosity, the desire to learn more about the world and find answers to deeper questions, has paved the way for some of humankind's most innovative and transformative discoveries. From the advancements Homo sapiens (智人) made in tool design to our recent progress in renewable energy, intellectual curiosity has been a driving force.
There is strong evidence that curiosity aids information retention (记忆) and our ability to learn. A study published in the journal Trends in Cognitive Science suggests that if curiosity is aroused, it enhances learning via increased attentional processes during information seeking and retention via enhanced memory. Furthermore, neurological research has shown that curiosity makes our brains more receptive for learning, and that as we learn, we enjoy the sensation of learning, which in turn leads to us wanting to learn more and more. The value of these skills in the workplace is being clearly recognised by organisations and think tanks.
Presently our ability to exercise curiosity is challenged by our prioritisation of immediate answers over questions. Our constant access to technology has adapted us to seeking quick solutions rather than formulating deeper questions. This is compounded by the lack of time that so many of us experience day to day. Busyness seems to be a key characteristic of modern life as well as a glorified status symbol. The fear of missing out and the influence of digital culture, which promotes constant connectivity and the expectation of immediate responses, act as a barrier to taking the time to get curious about a subject.
Despite the barriers that exist and prevent us from exercising our intellectual curiosity to the fullest extent, the ability to stay curious may be one of the most important properties we have. If intellectual curiosity is like a muscle, then we need to be sure we are exercising it. If we don't, it might wither (枯萎). And without it, we run a risk of not experiencing the world and all of its possibilities for learning, new answers and unexpected experiences.
12．What does the writer intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A．Humans' progress in renewable energy.
B．The significance of intellectual curiosity.
C．The long history of intellectual curiosity.
D．Humans' intellectual development over time.
13．How does curiosity benefit our ability to learn according to researches
A．It aids our brain to organize information.
B．It helps us maintain our existing memory.
C．It develops our creative and critical thinking.
D．It enhances concentration and enjoyment in learning.
14．What does the underlined word "formulating" in paragraph 3 most probably mean
A．Raising. B．Discussing. C．Avoiding. D．Simplifying.
15．How is the necessity of exercising intellectual curiosity presented
A．By giving an example. B．By giving a definition.
C．By providing a reason. D．By making a comparison.
【答案】12．B
13．D
14．A
15．D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；段落大意；说明文；科普类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了智力好奇心作为人类探索世界、推动创新的核心动力，自智人出现以来始终引领着重大发现与进步。研究表明，好奇心能增强信息记忆与学习能力，并通过神经机制激发持续学习的欲望，其职场价值已获广泛认可。然而，现代社会的即时答案依赖、时间匮乏及数字文化导致的"错失恐惧症"，正削弱人们深入提问与探索的能力。尽管如此，保持好奇心仍是人类最重要的特质之一——它如同肌肉，需持续锻炼以避免退化，否则我们将错失认知世界、发现新知与体验未知的可能性。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和段落大意四个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
12．段落大意题。根据第一段中的"Since the beginning of human history, somewhere over 300,000 years ago, intellectual curiosity, the desire to learn more about the world and find answers to deeper questions, has paved the way for some of humankind's most innovative and transformative discoveries. "自从30多万年前人类历史的开端，智力好奇心，即了解更多关于世界和找到更深层次问题答案的欲望，已经为人类一些最具创新性和变革性的发现铺平了道路。可知，作者在第一段中主要想告诉我们智力好奇心的重要性。故选B。
13．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"A study published in the journal Trends in Cognitive Science suggests that if curiosity is aroused, it enhances learning via increased attentional processes during information seeking and retention via enhanced memory. Furthermore, neurological research has shown that curiosity makes our brains more receptive for learning, and that as we learn, we enjoy the sensation of learning, which in turn leads to us wanting to learn more and more. "发表在《认知科学趋势》杂志上的一项研究表明，如果好奇心被激发起来，它会通过增加信息寻求过程中的注意力过程来增强学习，并通过增强记忆来增强信息保留。此外，神经学研究表明，好奇心使我们的大脑更容易接受学习，而且随着我们的学习，我们享受学习的感觉，这反过来又使我们想要学习越来越多。可知，好奇心通过增强注意力和享受学习过程来提高我们的学习能力。故选D。
14．词义猜测题。根据第三段中的"Our constant access to technology has adapted us to seeking quick solutions rather than formulating deeper questions."我们不断地接触技术已经使我们适应了寻求快速解决方案，而不是formulating更深层次的问题)"可知，不断接触技术使得人们可以寻求快速解决方案，所以不会提出更深层次的问题，划线词formulating在此处意为"提出"，故选A。
15．推理判断题。根据最后一段"Despite the barriers that exist and prevent us from exercising our intellectual curiosity to the fullest extent, the ability to stay curious may be one of the most important properties we have. If intellectual curiosity is like a muscle, then we need to be sure we are exercising it. If we don't, it might wither (枯萎). And without it, we run a risk of not experiencing the world and all of its possibilities for learning, new answers and unexpected experiences. "尽管存在阻碍我们充分发挥智力好奇心的障碍，但保持好奇心的能力可能是我们拥有的最重要的特性之一。如果智力好奇心像肌肉一样，那么我们需要确保我们在锻炼它。如果我们不这样做，它可能会枯萎。没有它，我们就冒着无法体验世界及其所有学习、新答案和意外经历的可能性的风险。可知，将智力好奇心比作肌肉，它需锻炼，否则枯萎，说明锻炼智力好奇心和不锻炼的结果不同，所以作者通过进行比较来阐述锻炼智力好奇心的必要性。故选D。

六、第二节(满分25分)
47．（2025·永州模拟）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。
"Mom, please, please," I begged. "Please, let me do it by myself." I had never made cookies by myself before. But I'm nine and old enough to do many things. "Alana is going to cook Alone " my brother, Caleb, asked with a laugh. "That's going to be a disaster!" Caleb uses big words to act older and smarter than me. Having a big brother can be annoying.
My parents looked at each other. My dad lowered his eyebrows. Would they let me do it I held my breath. "OK," Mom said, "But Alana, please take your time. Be careful." Sometimes I think my parents have no faith in me. Sure, I've made a mess. I once accidentally dyed (染色) my hands purple, and it didn't wash off for a week. But that was before I turned nine. I would know better now. My parents should realize that!
To make delicious cookies, I reviewed the recipe carefully. After that, I raced to the kitchen and got everything ready like butter, salt, eggs, flour, baking powder, a baking sheet, and an oven (烤箱). I went to work. I opened eggs and put a cold stick of butter into the bowl. Using a mixer was easy. I turned on the mixer at medium speed — and whoa, whoa. Whoa! "WHOA!" I cried. What a disaster! I had to wipe butter off my face, then off the cabinets (柜子), countertop, and floor. Butter is really oily.
"Yuck! Alana's a mess! Alana's a mess!" my brother taunted (奚落). "Caleb, you just get out of here. Leave me alone!" I yelled, waving a spoon. Caleb laughed and walked away. However, I determined to prove to everyone that I was grown up and in control. I put down the cookie sheet and picked up the directions. What had gone wrong Then I saw it. I had forgotten to add two cups of flour before mixing well!
注意：
1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: I started again carefully.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: I brought a plate of cookies into the living room with pride.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A possible version:
Paragraph 1:I started again carefully. Cracking the eggs, I slid them into the bowl. With butter and salt added, two cups of flour were soon poured into the mixture before the mixer was turned on — this time, nothing went wrong. I breathed a sigh of relief. Next came a sprinkle of baking powder. I mixed everything together until it became a soft dough. Then I rolled it into small balls, which were then put on a baking sheet in the oven. Within minutes, a fantastic scent filled the kitchen — the smell of cookie success!
Paragraph 2:I brought the cookies into the dining room with pride. Hardly had I put them down when I asked my family to have a taste. Seeing the perfectly golden brown cookies, they wondered, their eyes widened. "You did it! All by yourself." mom said, smiling as she chewed. "Great job!" Dad said, finishing his second cookie. A wave of joy and accomplishment overwhelmed me. "Terrific!" Caleb shouted, shooting me a hearty smile. I couldn't hide my surprise at his change. The cookies, warm and fragrant, witnessed my growth.
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了九岁的作者首次尝试独自做饼干，虽然遭遇挫折被哥哥奚落，但最终决心克服困难，证明自己的成长与独立。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"我小心翼翼地重新开始。"可知，第一段可描写作者吸取教训，重新按照食谱小心操作，最终成功制作出饼干。②由第二段首句内容"我自豪地把饼干带进了餐厅。"可知，第二段可描写作者自豪地将饼干端给家人品尝，并收获家人赞扬和惊喜。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【点评】该续写紧扣前文冲突（兄长嘲笑、首次失败），通过"重新开始"和"成果展示"两个场景形成完整叙事链。第一段聚焦制作过程的细节修正（如按顺序添加面粉、控制搅拌速度），体现"吸取教训"的成长逻辑。通过动作分解（"滑动鸡蛋""撒烘焙粉""揉成球状"）和感官描写（"黄油的气味""饼干的香气"）强化画面感，使读者仿佛置身厨房；第二段以家人反应推动情感高潮，尤其是哥哥态度的转变（从奚落到称赞），形成戏剧性反差，增强故事张力。该段用家人表情特写（"眼睛睁大""露出微笑"）和味觉反馈（"嚼着饼干""吃完第二个"），将抽象的"成就感"转化为可感知的生活场景，增强情感共鸣。总之续写部分以"失败-修正-成功"为骨架，通过细节堆砌与情感递进，将一个普通的家庭生活片段转化为关于成长、亲情与自我认同的温暖故事，符合题目要求且富有感染力。

（2025·永州模拟）During my undergraduate years in Kerala, India, a severe flood changed my life. One morning, I was urgently awakened by a friend informing me that heavy rain had caused flooding in our area. Outside, the scene was chaotic: families trapped on rooftops, children crying for help, and hospital patients being evacuated (疏散). My friends and I immediately joined the rescue efforts, distributing food to those affected. This experience had a profound impact on me, leading me to a new career path.
I had initially pursued civil engineering, inspired by my dream of designing buildings. However, as my studies progressed, I became more interested in research. The flood clarified my direction. After volunteering in affected communities that summer, I decided to focus on natural disasters. I applied for a master's program in development studies, a multidisciplinary (多学科的) course covering sustainable development, geography, and economics, with hands-on community projects. This decision greatly surprised my friends and family, who questioned why I was leaving engineering for social sciences. They worried about my job prospects, but I was determined to follow my passion.
The program exposed me to projects helping communities plan for climate change, strengthening my belief in this path. I then applied for a Ph. D., despite financial uncertainty and the challenge of switching fields. Many universities preferred candidates with consistent academic backgrounds, and I faced rejections and skepticism during interviews. However, one program accepted me, allowing me to study how better water resource management and policy can help vulnerable populations adapt to climate change uncertainties.
Starting the Ph. D. was exciting but challenging. Now, three years into my program, I am confident in my decision. The challenges are worth it, as I can dive into an issue I care deeply about and potentially help people. My journey has taught me that following your heart, even on an unconventional path, is the right choice.
4．What does the writer want to show by mentioning the flood experience

A．Challenges are unavoidable.
B．We should think before we act.
C．We should pursue our dreams despite conventions.
D．Following others' advice helps make right decisions.
（2025·永州模拟）Being struck by lightning is something humans generally try to avoid. But for at least one tropical tree species, this might be a good thing.
Scientists have long believed that being hit by lightning could have only negative effects on trees. "Your best-case scenario (设想) is that you're kind of okay, and your worst-case scenario is: you explode in a million bits," says Evan Gora, a forest ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies in New York State. But after spending many years studying the effects of lightning on rainforests, Gora began wondering whether trees could not only survive this usually deadly event but also actually get some kind of advantage from it.
To find out, he and his colleagues spent several years following the fate of 93 trees from various species in the rainforest of central Panama when they were directly struck by lightning. Nine were from a species known as the almendro (油蜡豆树), a forest giant native to Central and South America that can grow up to 165 feet tall. After the trees were struck, the researchers continued to monitor the ones that survived the shock, checking their overall condition.
The results showed that the almendro trees were very resistant to lightning and minimally damaged. A few other large species also survived the strikes and might have benefitted as well, but lightning had not struck enough of these species for the researchers to be certain. The researchers also assume that the almendro might have evolved to attract lightning — or at least not to avoid it, as most other trees have. Almendro trees' wide crown (树冠) and tall height. which enhance its chance of being hit, make it a living lightning rod (避雷针). Gora thinks similar abilities to benefit from lightning might be widespread across other species and types of forests.
Allan Carroll, a disturbance ecologist at the University of British Columbia, who wasn't involved in the research, says, "The findings of the study are quite novel and make a significant contribution to our knowledge of plant evolution."
8．Why does the author quote Evan Gora
A．To show a fact. B．To support a point.
C．To explain a concept. D．To illustrate a phenomenon.
9．How did researchers study the effects of lightning on trees
A．They checked the related data yearly.
B．They tracked the subjects for a long time.
C．They compared the height of different trees.
D．They recorded the frequency of lighting occurrences.
10．What can we learn from paragraph 4
A．Almendro trees are likely to attract lightning.
B．The result of the research is totally convincing.
C．Being resistant to lightning is common to trees.
D．Almendro trees can get sheltered from lightning.
11．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．How do trees conduct electricity
B．How are trees protected from lightning
C．Can tree species benefit from lightning
D．Can lightning harm rainforest ecosystem
（2025·永州模拟）Since the beginning of human history, somewhere over 300,000 years ago, intellectual curiosity, the desire to learn more about the world and find answers to deeper questions, has paved the way for some of humankind's most innovative and transformative discoveries. From the advancements Homo sapiens (智人) made in tool design to our recent progress in renewable energy, intellectual curiosity has been a driving force.
There is strong evidence that curiosity aids information retention (记忆) and our ability to learn. A study published in the journal Trends in Cognitive Science suggests that if curiosity is aroused, it enhances learning via increased attentional processes during information seeking and retention via enhanced memory. Furthermore, neurological research has shown that curiosity makes our brains more receptive for learning, and that as we learn, we enjoy the sensation of learning, which in turn leads to us wanting to learn more and more. The value of these skills in the workplace is being clearly recognised by organisations and think tanks.
Presently our ability to exercise curiosity is challenged by our prioritisation of immediate answers over questions. Our constant access to technology has adapted us to seeking quick solutions rather than formulating deeper questions. This is compounded by the lack of time that so many of us experience day to day. Busyness seems to be a key characteristic of modern life as well as a glorified status symbol. The fear of missing out and the influence of digital culture, which promotes constant connectivity and the expectation of immediate responses, act as a barrier to taking the time to get curious about a subject.
Despite the barriers that exist and prevent us from exercising our intellectual curiosity to the fullest extent, the ability to stay curious may be one of the most important properties we have. If intellectual curiosity is like a muscle, then we need to be sure we are exercising it. If we don't, it might wither (枯萎). And without it, we run a risk of not experiencing the world and all of its possibilities for learning, new answers and unexpected experiences.
12．What does the writer intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A．Humans' progress in renewable energy.
B．The significance of intellectual curiosity.
C．The long history of intellectual curiosity.
D．Humans' intellectual development over time.
13．How does curiosity benefit our ability to learn according to researches
A．It aids our brain to organize information.
B．It helps us maintain our existing memory.
C．It develops our creative and critical thinking.
D．It enhances concentration and enjoyment in learning.
14．What does the underlined word "formulating" in paragraph 3 most probably mean
A．Raising. B．Discussing. C．Avoiding. D．Simplifying.
15．How is the necessity of exercising intellectual curiosity presented
A．By giving an example. B．By giving a definition.
C．By providing a reason. D．By making a comparison.

"Mom, please, please," I begged. "Please, let me do it by myself." I had never made cookies by myself before. But I'm nine and old enough to do many things. "Alana is going to cook Alone " my brother, Caleb, asked with a laugh. "That's going to be a disaster!" Caleb uses big words to act older and smarter than me. Having a big brother can be annoying.
My parents looked at each other. My dad lowered his eyebrows. Would they let me do it I held my breath. "OK," Mom said, "But Alana, please take your time. Be careful." Sometimes I think my parents have no faith in me. Sure, I've made a mess. I once accidentally dyed (染色) my hands purple, and it didn't wash off for a week. But that was before I turned nine. I would know better now. My parents should realize that!
To make delicious cookies, I reviewed the recipe carefully. After that, I raced to the kitchen and got everything ready like butter, salt, eggs, flour, baking powder, a baking sheet, and an oven (烤箱). I went to work. I opened eggs and put a cold stick of butter into the bowl. Using a mixer was easy. I turned on the mixer at medium speed — and whoa, whoa. Whoa! "WHOA!" I cried. What a disaster! I had to wipe butter off my face, then off the cabinets (柜子), countertop, and floor. Butter is really oily.
"Yuck! Alana's a mess! Alana's a mess!" my brother taunted (奚落). "Caleb, you just get out of here. Leave me alone!" I yelled, waving a spoon. Caleb laughed and walked away. However, I determined to prove to everyone that I was grown up and in control. I put down the cookie sheet and picked up the directions. What had gone wrong Then I saw it. I had forgotten to add two cups of flour before mixing well!

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了智力好奇心作为人类探索世界、推动创新的核心动力，自智人出现以来始终引领着重大发现与进步。研究表明，好奇心能增强信息记忆与学习能力，并通过神经机制激发持续学习的欲望，其职场价值已获广泛认可。然而，现代社会的即时答案依赖、时间匮乏及数字文化导致的"错失恐惧症"，正削弱人们深入提问与探索的能力。尽管如此，保持好奇心仍是人类最重要的特质之一——它如同肌肉，需持续锻炼以避免退化，否则我们将错失认知世界、发现新知与体验未知的可能性。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和段落大意四个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
12．段落大意题。根据第一段中的"Since the beginning of human history, somewhere over 300,000 years ago, intellectual curiosity, the desire to learn more about the world and find answers to deeper questions, has paved the way for some of humankind's most innovative and transformative discoveries.

13．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"A study published in the journal Trends in Cognitive Science suggests that if curiosity is aroused, it enhances learning via increased attentional processes during information seeking and retention via enhanced memory. Furthermore, neurological research has shown that curiosity makes our brains more receptive for learning, and that as we learn, we enjoy the sensation of learning, which in turn leads to us wanting to learn more and more. "发表在《认知科学趋势》杂志上的一项研究表明，如果好奇心被激发起来，它会通过增加信息寻求过程中的注意力过程来增强学习，并通过增强记忆来增强信息保留。此外，神经学研究表明，好奇心使我们的大脑更容易接受学习，而且随着我们的学习，我们享受学习的感觉，这反过来又使我们想要学习越来越多。可知，好奇心通过增强注意力和享受学习过程来提高我们的学习能力。故选D。
14．词义猜测题。根据第三段中的"Our constant access to technology has adapted us to seeking quick solutions rather than formulating deeper questions."我们不断地接触技术已经使我们适应了寻求快速解决方案，而不是formulating更深层次的问题)"可知，不断接触技术使得人们可以寻求快速解决方案，所以不会提出更深层次的问题，划线词formulating在此处意为"提出"，故选A。
15．推理判断题。根据最后一段"Despite the barriers that exist and prevent us from exercising our intellectual curiosity to the fullest extent, the ability to stay curious may be one of the most important properties we have. If intellectual curiosity is like a muscle, then we need to be sure we are exercising it. If we don't, it might wither (枯萎). And without it, we run a risk of not experiencing the world and all of its possibilities for learning, new answers and unexpected experiences. "尽管存在阻碍我们充分发挥智力好奇心的障碍，但保持好奇心的能力可能是我们拥有的最重要的特性之一。如果智力好奇心像肌肉一样，那么我们需要确保我们在锻炼它。如果我们不这样做，它可能会枯萎。没有它，我们就冒着无法体验世界及其所有学习、新答案和意外经历的可能性的风险。可知，将智力好奇心比作肌肉，它需锻炼，否则枯萎，说明锻炼智力好奇心和不锻炼的结果不同，所以作者通过进行比较来阐述锻炼智力好奇心的必要性。故选D。

47．【答案】A possible version:
Paragraph 1:I started again carefully. Cracking the eggs, I slid them into the bowl. With butter and salt added, two cups of flour were soon poured into the mixture before the mixer was turned on — this time, nothing went wrong. I breathed a sigh of relief. Next came a sprinkle of baking powder. I mixed everything together until it became a soft dough. Then I rolled it into small balls, which were then put on a baking sheet in the oven. Within minutes, a fantastic scent filled the kitchen — the smell of cookie success!
Paragraph 2:I brought the cookies into the dining room with pride. Hardly had I put them down when I asked my family to have a taste. Seeing the perfectly golden brown cookies, they wondered, their eyes widened. "You did it! All by yourself." mom said, smiling as she chewed. "Great job!" Dad said, finishing his second cookie. A wave of joy and accomplishment overwhelmed me. "Terrific!" Caleb shouted, shooting me a hearty smile. I couldn't hide my surprise at his change. The cookies, warm and fragrant, witnessed my growth.
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了九岁的作者首次尝试独自做饼干，虽然遭遇挫折被哥哥奚落，但最终决心克服困难，证明自己的成长与独立。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"我小心翼翼地重新开始。"可知，第一段可描写作者吸取教训，重新按照食谱小心操作，最终成功制作出饼干。②由第二段首句内容"我自豪地把饼干带进了餐厅。"可知，第二段可描写作者自豪地将饼干端给家人品尝，并收获家人赞扬和惊喜。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【点评】该续写紧扣前文冲突（兄长嘲笑、首次失败），通过"重新开始"和"成果展示"两个场景形成完整叙事链。第一段聚焦制作过程的细节修正（如按顺序添加面粉、控制搅拌速度），体现"吸取教训"的成长逻辑。通过动作分解（"滑动鸡蛋""撒烘焙粉""揉成球状"）和感官描写（"黄油的气味""饼干的香气"）强化画面感，使读者仿佛置身厨房；第二段以家人反应推动情感高潮，尤其是哥哥态度的转变（从奚落到称赞），形成戏剧性反差，增强故事张力。该段用家人表情特写（"眼睛睁大""露出微笑"）和味觉反馈（"嚼着饼干""吃完第二个"），将抽象的"成就感"转化为可感知的生活场景，增强情感共鸣。总之续写部分以"失败-修正-成功"为骨架，通过细节堆砌与情感递进，将一个普通的家庭生活片段转化为关于成长、亲情与自我认同的温暖故事，符合题目要求且富有感染力。
