At my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me plainly: “Now I will teach you how to write your name. And to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. I was curious.
Growing up in Singapore, I had an unusual relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese, so they asked fortune tellers to decide my name, aiming for maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nonsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, roughly, “old”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.
When I arrived in America for college at 18, I put on an American accent and abandoned my Chinese name. When I moved to Hong Kong in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage I thought.
In calligraphy, the idea is to copy the old masters’ techniques, thereby refining your own. Every week, though, my teacher would give uncomfortably on-the-nose assessments of my person. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Have confidence. Try to produce a bold stroke(笔画).” For years, I had prided myself on presenting an image of confidence, but my writing betrayed me.
I was trying to make sense of this practice. You must visualize the word as it is to be written and leave a trace of yourself in it. As a bodily practice, calligraphy could go beyond its own cultural restrictions. Could it help me go beyond mine My teacher once said to me, “When you look at the word, you see the body. Though a word on the page is two-dimensional, it contains multitudes, conveying the force you’ve applied, the energy of your grip, the arch of your spine.” I had been learning calligraphy to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. Now I have sensed that the pleasure out of calligraphy allows me to know myself more fully.
During a recent lesson, my teacher pointed at the word I had just finished, telling me: “This word is much better. I can see the choices you made, your calculations, your flow. Trust yourself. This word is yours.” He might as well have said, “This word is you.”
24．What did the author initially think of her name “Chen Yiwen”
A．It was lucky so she gladly accepted it.
B．She felt proud of its symbolic meaning.
C．She understood the intention but still disliked it.
D．Its strange pronunciation made her embarrassed.
25．The author decided to learn calligraphy to ______.
A．pick up a new hobby B．reconnect with her origin
C．gain insights into a new culture D．fit in with local community
26．From the teacher’s words, the author learns that calligraphy ______.
A．reflects the creator’s spirits B．comes from creative energy
C．highlights the design of strokes D．depends on continuous practice
27．What does the author intend to tell us
A．Appreciate what our culture offers. B．Find beauty from your inner self.
C．A great teacher leads you to truth. D．We are the sum of what we create.

When instant cake mixes first appeared in the 1950s, American housewives were doubtful. These mixes, promising easy cake-baking, felt too easy. The manufacturers discovered that requiring the addition of an egg in the baking process was just enough to make the housewives happy with their work. The greater sense of effort gained from a little extra labor is believed to have been essential to the later success of the cake mix.
This reflects the IKEA effect (宜家效应), which is identified by psychologist Michael I. Norton and his colleagues, suggesting we place greater value on things we have worked to create. They conducted four studies in which they asked participants to fold paper cranes and frogs, assemble IKEA boxes, and build sets of Legos. They then asked the builders to bid (出价) for their creations, and compared the prices with bids from people who hadn’t built them. The builders consistently outbid the non-builders.
Interestingly, the IKEA effect works even when people have no opportunity to fully personalize their creations. While most participants’ folding skills left much to be desired, they loved their imperfectly personalized products all the more. Builders valued their wrinkled crane-like creations nearly five times as much as non-builders. Beauty, it seems, is in the eye of the builder.
Today, as cities are suffering from severe housing crises, the IKEA effect can give us insight into the well-being benefits of a self-building approach to housing development. Projects like WikiHouse and the “half-a-house” approach pioneered by Alejandro Aravena’s architecture company Elemental are working to make housing more affordable and sustainable by making it easier for people to build and personalize their own homes.
“The moment people are involved with their built environment, they have a totally different relationship to it,” WikiHouse co-founder Alastair Parvin explained. “When the roof starts leaking or a door starts creaking, they have the power to fix it themselves.”
28．What brought customers the joy of cake-baking according to paragraph 1
A．A better taste. B．An easy approach.
C．A detailed recipe. D．An additional effort.
29．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 imply
A．Creations are based on skills. B．Extra labor increases perceived value.
C．Beauty is found through contrast. D．Strict management brings good quality.
30．What is Alastair Parvin’s attitude towards public involvement in housing
A．Critical. B．Objective. C．Doubtful. D．Supportive.
31．What’s the purpose of this text
A．To promote a brand. B．To make a proposal.
C．To explain a concept. D．To introduce a study.

First-edition copies of Jane Austen’s completed novels are on display in the home where the beloved author spent years writing and revising. The rare books are part of a new Permanent exhibition, “Jane Austen and the Art of Writing”, at her family’s former cottage in Chawton, a village located some 50 miles from London. Austen lived in the house during the last eight years of her life. She wrote or revised all six of her completed novels there: Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion.
For the first time, all six first-edition novels will be on display together at Jane Austen’s House, which is now a museum. They include a copy of Emma, copies of Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, and a copy of Sense and Sensibility with the publisher’s original binding.
The novels appear on display in a 12-sided case built for the new installation, a tribute to Austen’s small 12-sided wooden table she often worked at. They deserve it. The rare books are part of the museum’s preparations for the beloved author’s 250th birthday celebrations in December 2025. Lizzie Dunford, director of the museum, is excited for visitors to have the unique opportunity to be quite literally surrounded by the books and objects that influenced Austen.
The show also features other objects from Austen’s life that are connected to her writing. Additionally, some of Austen’s letters are on view at the exhibition, which examines how her correspondence and love of letter-writing informed her fiction. Visitors will also see a film about The Watsons, one of Austen’s unfinished novels, and how the original manuscript (手稿) throws light on her writing process.
“This exhibition is a deep dive into Jane Austen’s creative process,” says Sophie Reynolds, the head of collections, interpretation and engagement at the museum. “We hope that it will unlock a new way for our visitors to understand Jane Austen as a dedicated, driven and professional writer, and to explore how her life and living arrangements affected her writing in the very house in which she lived and wrote.”
32．What is the focus of the exhibition
A．The history of the museum. B．The life and works of Jane Austen.
C．The design of Jane Austen’s House. D．The birth and evolution of English literature.
33．What does the underlined word “tribute” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Loss. B．Threat. C．Honor. D．Insurance.
34．What does Sophie Reynolds try to convey about the exhibition in the last paragraph
A．Its preparations. B．Its barriers. C．Its process. D．Its purpose.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．Reveal Jane Austen’s Family and Early Life.
B．Jane Austen’s Original Letters Are on Show.
C．Celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th Birthday with Exhibits.
D．Jane Austen’s Finished and Unfinished Novels Are Published.

Flash floods can strike without warning. They can hit when you’re hiking in a river valley, walking through a canyon, or even simply driving to a remote destination. You can minimize your risk by knowing how to prepare for the worst and how to escape when a flood begins. 36
Before heading out, check the weather report, look at any flood warnings and take them seriously. 37 Dr Steven Kugath, an outdoor recreation professor, notes that when people plan to travel a long way for a hike or canyon exploration, they often feel that they must follow through with the activity even if the weather isn’t promising. The smart thing to do is cancel the activity or move it to a safer location.
Be careful of any visual signs of danger and your surroundings while walking or hiking in a tight space. 38 Besides, always know where you are and where the nearest escape routes can be found in the event of sudden flooding.
What if, despite your preparations, you find yourself stuck in a dangerous place when flooding begins Move to higher ground immediately, away from rivers and streams. If the situation is urgent, leave behind your possessions. 39 If you find yourself being carried away by powerful flood waters, fight as hard as you can to get to a tall tree, a street light or anything sturdy (结实) that you can hold onto until help arrives.
40 Currents can be deceptive (误导的), and shallow, fast moving water can knock you off your feet. Moreover, don’t swim through fast-flowing water — you may get swept away or struck by an object in the water.
A．Avoid walking through moving water.
B．No bag or equipment is worth your life.
C．It takes hours for the flood waters to move away.
D．Hundreds of people die due to drowning inside their vehicles.
E．Be careful not to let your excitement drive you to take any chances.
F．Keep these tips in mind the next time you head out for an outdoor adventure.
G．The sudden arrival of dark clouds during a perfectly sunny day is one obvious sign.

I was born with a genetic disease that causes severe weakness in my limbs. My disability means I’ve never been able to stand or walk, but in the water, I was weightless and could move more 41 .

But now I want to 50 myself for the first time. Like other disabled people who are always forced to fit in, I often feel a social 51 to push myself, to ignore my body’s needs, to be a high achiever, 52 miserable or exhausted. Giving up on swimming was a tough lesson about accepting the 53 of my body. It was the first big loss in my life, but I know there will be others as I age. I’ve learned it’s OK to 54 what my body could do before, but it’s also important to find ways to adapt and 55 what I can do.

67.阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I must admit, I haven’t always liked animals. In fact, I distrusted them greatly while growing up, and I still fear the ones I don’t know personally. What set my beliefs in stone was being attacked—not once but many times, including the summer after second grade when I was bitten by a rabbit. Then, when I was nine and riding my dirt bike down the road, a large dog charged me and tried to bite my ankle. After all those negative experiences, there was one thing I knew for sure: All creatures, great and small, were no friends of mine.
After college in California, I returned to live the single life in Las Vega. Then I met Lisa. In no time at all, we fell in love, married and moved into a new house. Despite my avoidance of animals, Lisa had a dog called Bailey. Bailey didn’t like me, but he tolerated my existence once he realized I wasn’t going anywhere.
Things changed as spring came. We welcomed a new member of our family: our son Evan. One evening Evan grabbed hold of the dog’s tail. The irritated dog paused and turned to look at his stuck tail but waited patiently until being released. Still the stories I’d heard of animals attacking babies worries me.
Then my worst fear occurred. I sat on the couch (沙发) reading after a long day while my wife worked at the dining-room table paying the bills. I saw Evan crawl across the family-room carpet as he made his way behind the couch. One minute, all was quiet and then Bailey entered the room and headed to where Evan had crawled. I nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard the dog start a fearful barking behind me.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Throwing the book away, I rushed around the couch with great fear.

第二节
Throwing the book away, I rushed around the couch with great fear. My heart pounded as I imagined the worst—Bailey attacking Evan. But what I saw stopped me short: Bailey was standing over Evan, barking fiercely at something on the floor. Evan, unaware of the danger, was reaching out his tiny hand. I quickly scooped Evan up, then noticed a scorpion scurrying near where he’d been crawling. Bailey lunged at it, killing it with a swift bite. He turned to me, tail wagging slightly, as if saying “I got it”.
Having witnessed our dog killing a scorpion and saving my son, I was speechless. All my past fears of animals melted away in that moment. Bailey, who’d merely tolerated me, had proven himself a protector. I looked at him with newfound respect. From that day on, I started to connect with him—throwing his toy, sharing treats. He became not just Lisa’s dog, but a member of our family. I learned that judging all creatures based on past experiences blinded me to their kindness. Sometimes, love and loyalty come from the most unexpected places.
