T. S. Eliot wrote of “Distracted from distraction by distraction /Filled with fancies and empty of meaning.” T. S. Eliot never had a smartphone.
Neither did I for a long time. No Facebook account; not even email. But according to my date of manufacture, I’m supposed to be a digital native. Perhaps it’s because by the age of 20 I was living in the Welsh countryside with no signal and no Wi-Fi.
When I finally fell into the digital world, I fell hard. Unlike my friends for whom social media and mobile technology had grown and flowered around them, for me it was a sudden immersion. I got Facebook, Twitter and Gmail accounts at the same time that I got an iPhone 4. I would check my phone; five minutes later I would check my phone again. I was addicted and it started to affect my relationships with friends and family
One night, without a word, I abandoned my iPhone and bought a Nokia 3310 and became the talk of the town. Soon I became aware that not only had I stolen secret time back from the hurried days, but somehow a secret space as well. I could stretch out, free to think again, to be wholly creative and to learn meaningfully.
But, wherever I went I got bloody lost. Wandering blindly around London, only to miss appointments, became a frequent pastime (消遣). What did we do before Google Maps I was useless. The change was worth it, though. I’ll sound like an overstatement but I think it changed my life. My choices are broader and healthier because I’m not being screamed at all day.
I bought a new Samsung phone last week. I had been scared of the rate of progress, crying: “Stop the train! Stop the madness.” But I want to be part of building the future, and to do that, you’ve got to swim in contemporary waters. Rejecting the modern world doesn’t help anyone. It slows you down and I need to be efficient. Time will tell whether I’ve mastered the wisdom to reject constantly checking my phone.
24. What can be learned about the author when she lived in the Welsh countryside
A. She read a lot of T. S. Eliot. B. She had no friends to talk with.
C. She had no access to the Internet. D. She was afraid of the digital world.
25. Why did the author buy the Nokia 3310
A. She thought she needed a spare phone.
B. She found her iPhone stopped working.
C. She wanted to attract people’s attention.
D. She hoped to break her smartphone addiction.
26. What happened after the author used the Nokia 3310
A. She led a simple and healthy life.
B. She found her life was in a mess.
C. She spent more time with her friends.
D. She became an example for other people.
27. For what purpose did the author buy the Samsung phone
A. To seek wisdom. B. To stop her madness.
C. To keep pace with the times. D. To get back to the real world.
C
Yuck! Chicken blood splashes onto the floor and insects fly everywhere in the market. The old Indian woman waves the butcher knife. You’re speechless. Your friend who moved to India a few months before you notices your horror. “It’s just something they do,” he clarifies.
You’ve heard living abroad is good for you. Experiences like this one make you say “Seriously ”
Yes. Seriously.
Researchers William Maddux and Hajo Adam have discovered not only that cultural experiences are good for you, but they’ve also discovered why they’re good for you. Cultural experiences can make you more creative.
Maddux and his team discovered that learning about new cultures you encounter deeply is key to obtaining cognitive rewards. The team did a series of experiments with people who had lived abroad for a long time. They asked the sojourners (旅居者) to recall experiences where they: learned something about the culture they lived in abroad; learned something about their own culture; did something unrelated (like visiting a supermarket). Those who recalled learning something about a new culture did much better on a creative problem-solving task immediately afterward.
Maddux and his team wondered, though. Does learning new cultures always help Is it enough to just notice that another culture is different In another experiment they had a group of people recall an experience where they learned something new about a foreign culture but hadn’t been able to learn about the reasons for it.
The people who later were made aware of the hidden reasons for the novel, different, or unexpected behaviors they had come across were much more creative afterward than those who weren’t.
This means that even though discovering cultural differences exist is great, it’s not enough to influence how you think in other situations. You have to learn why a cultural difference exists. That’s what helps you spot new connections later, in other aspects of your life.
28. Why is the scene mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To show us an appropriate example.
B. To prove the advantages of living abroad.
C. To provide evidence for the writer’s viewpoint.
D. To draw readers’ attention to the following exploration.
29. What did the researchers find by asking the sojourners to recall their experience
A. What is necessary to be creative.
B. What influence creativity has on people.
C. What benefits cultural experiences bring.
D. What they can learn from their own cultures.
30. What can be concluded from the experiment in Paragraph 6
A. Learning new cultures is always of great help
B. It’s not enough just to notice similarities between cultures
C. Knowing the reasons for the difference is the key to creativity
D. Culture difference has an impact on your way of thinking
31. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A research report. B. A geography textbook.
C. A travel brochure. D. A science magazine.
D
On the Arctic ocean’s edge, polar bears stand on ice thinning from human-caused climate change. Without thick ice from which to powerfully attack seals, many of these symbols of the wild north can’t eat. Should we feed polar bears to right our wrongs Or should we leave them alone, even if that means they starve to extinction
Emma Marris’ Wild Souls encourages readers to reflect on this question and more. An absorbing mixture of philosophy and science, the book explores what we owe the nonhuman world. Like her 2011 book Rambunctious Garden, which challenged the idea of “undeveloped wilderness” in a world where humans touch everything, Wild Souls questions the very concepts of wildness and nature. The result challenges readers to reconsider how they relate to nonhuman animals, from caged creatures to polar bears in the warming north.
Marris guides readers through a series of case studies, from native hunting practices to local zoos, all brought to life through attentive on-the-ground reporting. Running through these examples is a central ethical (道德的) tension: How do we weigh the concrete moral value of an individual creature who has feelings and can suffer against the more abstract value of species or ecosystems, which is of course unfeeling but causes such depths of emotion in us when they are threatened or lost
Marris is frank on where she stands on certain issues, arguing, for example, that zoos are immoral. She also asks whether it’s ever right to save a species like the California condor (秃鹰) — which once flew high above most of North America but dwindled to just a handful of individuals in the 1080s — by caging them for captive breeding (圈养) .
In the end, Marris finds no easy answer to making ethical choices about animals’ fates. Instead, readers may realize something profound: There are no perfect ways to act ethically towards all animals and all species when the values crash. As we try to mend the mess we’ve made of nature, all we can do is act with thoughtful modesty.
32. What is the similarity between Wild Souls and Rambunctious Garden
A. They seek guidelines to coexist with wildlife.
B. They advocate minimum interaction with animals.
C. They explore right relationships to the nonhuman world.
D. They urge humans to restore nature to its prehuman state.
33. How does Marris make her point in the book
A. By asking moral questions.
B. By quoting previous studies.
C. By discussing individual cases.
D. By presenting unsolved problems.
34. Which is closest in meaning to “dwindled” in paragraph 4
A. Changed. B. Decreased. C. Restricted. D. Moved.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. What Do We Owe Animals
B. Are Wild Animals Really “wild”
C. What Impact Do We Have on This Planet
D. How Can We Help Earth’s Wildlife Grow

In the bustling (繁忙的) schoolyard of a primary school, a volleyball team trial (选拔赛) was taking place. Kids of all sizes and shapes had come forward to show their skills, most of them towering over six feet tall, like young giants.
Suddenly, the gym door creaked open, and a small figure appeared. It was Joseph, a boy who barely reached five feet in height. His appearance caused a ripple of giggles. He seemed like a lost elf (精灵) in a world of giants.
“Is this the volleyball trial ” Joseph asked. Despite the laughter, he squared his shoulders and prepared to show his skills. He wasn’t bad at bumping the ball and passing it, but not good enough to make the team. The coach took him aside and told him so. Joseph’s eyes flashed with determination. “I’m not the best at bumping the ball,” he said confidently. “I’m a hitter.”
The coach raised an eyebrow, skeptical. Hitters were the tallest players on the volleyball team. They jumped high, slamming the ball down on the other side with force. Joseph’s small size seemed an impossibility.
But Joseph was serious. The coach finally agreed and handed him a ball. Standing by the net, he set the ball into the air. Joseph’s small frame seemed to explode with energy. He ran forward, leaped into the air, and hit the ball with such force that it whistled through the air.
Everyone was stunned. Joseph’s jump was so high, it seemed as if he were flying. His small size didn’t matter; his skill and determination were enough. The ball slammed into the court with a resounding thud (砰的一声), and the crowd erupted into applause. Of course, he made the team. All the team members took pains to drill for the coming volleyball match. Two months later, the big day came. The match was very fierce. The players were tall and strong except Joseph, who just ran on the court, not yet given a chance to touch the ball. At the sight of Joseph, the other team were laughing, which made us mad. But Joseph just shook off their laughter with a confident smile. As the game progressed, it turned out to be a tough game. After the four sets, the score was 2:2.
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。
During a timeout (暂停) in the final set, Joseph’s team gathered to discuss their plan.

【解析】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了Emma Marris的两本书——《荒野之魂》Wild Souls和《喧闹的花园》Rambunctious Garden，这两本书都致力于探索人们与非人类世界的正确关系。
32. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Emma Marris’ Wild Souls encourages readers to reflect on this question and more. An absorbing mixture of philosophy and science, the book explores what we owe the nonhuman world. Like her 2011 book Rambunctious Garden, which challenged the idea of “undeveloped wilderness” in a world where humans touch everything, Wild Souls questions the very concepts of wildness and nature. The result challenges readers to reconsider how they relate to nonhuman animals, from caged creatures to polar bears in the warming north. The result challenges readers to reconsider how they relate to nonhuman animals, from caged creatures to polar bears in the warming north.(艾玛·马里斯的《荒野之魂》鼓励读者思考这个问题以及更多。这本书融合了哲学和科学，探索了我们欠非人类世界的东西。她在2011年出版的《喧闹的花园》挑战了人类触碰一切的世界中“未开发的荒野”的观点，《荒野之魂》也质疑了荒野和自然的概念。这一结果促使读者重新思考他们与非人类动物的关系，从关在笼子里的动物到正在变暖的北方的北极熊)”可知，Wild Souls与Rambunctious Garden这两本书的共同点在于都探索了人们与非人类世界的正确关系。故选C。
33. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Marris guides readers through a series of case studies, from native hunting practices to local zoos, all brought to life through attentive on-the-ground reporting.(马里斯通过一系列案例研究指导读者，从当地的狩猎实践到当地的动物园，所有这些都通过细心的实地报道而变得栩栩如生)”可知，Marris通过讨论个案来说明她在书中的观点。故选C。

35. 标题归纳题。根据文章第二段“An absorbing mixture of philosophy and science, the book explores what we owe the nonhuman world.(这本书融合了哲学和科学，探索了我们欠非人类世界的东西。)”及最后一段“In the end, Marris finds no easy answer to making ethical choices about animals’ fates. Instead, readers may realize something profound: There are no perfect ways to act ethically towards all animals and all species when the values crash. As we try to mend the mess we’ve made of nature, all we can do is act with thoughtful modesty.(最后，马里斯发现要对动物的命运做出合乎伦理的选择并不容易。相反，读者可能会意识到一些深刻的东西：当价值观崩溃时，没有完美的方式来对待所有的动物和物种。当我们试图修复我们对自然造成的混乱时，我们所能做的就是表现出深思熟虑的谦虚)”可知，本文介绍了Emma Marris在书中思考的人与自然的关系，对动物的命运做出合乎伦理的选择并不容易，当价值观崩溃时，没有完美的方式来对待所有的动物和物种。A选项“我们欠动物什么？”最好地概括了本文探讨的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选A。

Dear David,
I hope you’re doing well. I am writing to share some feedback regarding the cooperative learning approach we’ve been using in our English class this semester.
Cooperative learning has been an integral part of our learning process. We’ve had group discussions, team projects, and various collaborative activities. It’s been a refreshing change from traditional teaching methods. From my perspective, the experience has been quite positive. I find that working in groups not only enhances our understanding of the material, but also improves our communication and teamwork skills. It’s a more engaging way to learn and has boosted my confidence in using English.
Overall, cooperative learning has been a valuable addition to our English class, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn English in this interactive and collaborative manner.
Yours,
Li Hua
【范文示例】
During a timeout in the final set, Joseph’s team gathered together to discuss their plan. “We need to create opportunities for Joseph to hit,” the captain said. “He’s the best hitter.” The strategy worked. The moment Joseph’s teammate passed the ball to him with precision, he hit the ball with all his might. Despite his small size, the ball flew over the net with surprising speed and power, straight into the other team’s court. Joseph’s teammates cheered. The game went on, and Joseph continued to surprise everyone. The other team soon realized that Joseph was not just a joke, but a force to be reckoned with. Then came the match point in the final set. It was Joseph’s powerful hit that sealed the victory for his team.
The whole audience cheered up. The noise was deafening, a combination of shouts, whistles and clapping that filled the stadium. Joseph’s teammates hugged him tightly, saying “I knew you could make it. You are the best!” They surrounded him and lifted him up, cheering and laughing. They knew that without his incredible jumping ability and powerful hits, they wouldn’t have been able to win. Joseph, with a confident smile, knew it too. He had proven that size didn’t matter, and that with skill and determination, anyone could be a star on the volleyball court. Joseph’s team went on to win more games that year, and Joseph was named the Most Valuable Player.
