November 23 was the happiest day of last winter for Wang Xiaolong. On that day, he spotted nearly 400 white cranes (鹤) in his patrol (巡逻) area near Poyang Lake.
“I was thrilled. It was the largest number of migratory birds I had seen in months,” Wang said.
Wang has been a patrol officer at the Wucheng protection and administration station of the Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve Bureau for 38 years. Each morning, around 5 am, he rises early, has a simple breakfast, and sets off from the protection station.
“Protecting the birds of Poyang Lake is my duty. This work has become a significant part of my life and holds the utmost importance to me. By protecting nature’s spirits, I have found my life’s purpose,” Wang said.
Wang fondly recalls rescuing a young white crane 20 years ago on a winter’s day. He spotted the injured young crane during his patrol and brought it back to the protection station, where he fed it small fish and shrimp and took it to the bird hospital for treatment.
“I remember when we went to the hospital; I walked in front, and the young crane followed me. We entered the hospital together. After about a month, its injury healed, and I decided to release it back into the wild,” he said. “That day left a deep impression on me. The little white crane circled above my head for a long time before flying away. It felt like it recognized me and was reluctant to leave.”
Over the decades, Wang has rescued and released over 300 birds and participated in more than 180 projects involving the protection of migratory birds. He has received numerous honors, including being named “Jiangxi’s most beautiful environmentalist”.
What made November 23 a remarkable day for Wang last winter
He successfully completed his winter patrol. B．He achieved a personal milestone in his career C．He witnessed an extraordinary gathering of birds D．He received recognition for his conservation efforts.
How does the author develop Wang’s dedication to bird protection
By analyzing scientific data. B．By describing his daily routine. C．By comparing his work with others’. D．By quoting his personal statements.
What does Wang ‘s experience with the young crane reveal regarding his character
A．His scientific curiosity. B．His adventurous spirit. C．His professional ambition. D．His kind and caring nature.
What does the text imply about Wang’s work
It focuses only on local bird species.
He works alone without any partners.
It has been recognized and praised by others
D．His projects are funded by international organizations.

When you picture a zoo, what do you see A lone bear in a concrete cage, pacing aimlessly in front of tourists Or a group of volunteers, trying desperately to clean the body of the giant panda The role of zoos is unclear at first thought. On the one hand, funding from zoos comes from visitors and donors, so to attract the public, zoos must put on a good show. On the other hand, there is a growing cry to protect the animal kingdom from conservation-concerned individuals. That puts zoos in a dilemma.
London Zoo, which opened to members in 1828 as the first scientific zoo, opened its doors to the public 19 years later as it was not receiving sufficient funding. However, when the environmental movement was born in the late 20th Century, London Zoo began to change its focus. In the same year when the IUCN Red List was first published, London Zoo worked with Phoenix Zoo on a cooperative programme to boost Arabian oryx (大羚羊) numbers. London Zoo soon became the model on how to run a zoo that can satisfy both its visitors and its
inhabitants.
Some zoos did not follow suit.The reputation of SeaWorld declined, following the documentary Blackfish, an exposure on SeaWorld’s poor treatment of their killer whales. It is clear from their website that sea creatures’ wellbeing and conservation are not SeaWorld’s priority. They are happy to advertise their sea lion shows and penguin petting experiences, but their conservation “mission” is tucked neatly into a dusty corner of the website.
Knowing that places such as SeaWorld may not provide the best care for their animals, we continue to give them our money.
However, we should not stop visiting zoos. Zoos are essential to our education. Zoos are outdoors, soul-lifting, and in need of footfall to remain open and serving the animal kingdom. So research zoos before you visit them. Only pay for tickets to zoos that commit to conservation, aim to educate rather than entertain and have high animal welfare standards. Do not tolerate any less. Celebrate zoos which do it right.
What leads to the dilemma in paragraph 1
The protest from volunteers. B．The competition among zoos.
C．The pressure from funding and conservation. D．The conflict between visitors and zoo keepers.
Why is London Zoo mentioned
To give an example. B．To introduce an opinion.
C．To make a prediction. D．To recommend a destination.
What does the underlined word “tucked” in paragraph 3 probably mean
Written. B．Divided. C．Hidden. D．Combined.
What does the author suggest visitors do in the last paragraph
Celebrate the animal shows. B．Fund the poorly-managed zoos. C．Recognize zoos devoted to protection. D．Increase their visits to different zoos.

Forget to bring your charger What if your clothing could generate electricity from the heat your body naturally produces This futuristic concept is becoming a reality.
Scientists at Chalmers University and Link ping University in Sweden have developed a new yarn (纱线) that can generate electricity from body heat, using a polymer coating (聚合物涂层) applied to ordinary silk yarn. The principle is the thermoelectric effect (热电效应), where temperature differences between the human body and its surrounding environment create electrical energy. As the human body produces constant heat, the warmer side
of the thermoelectric material transfers electrons to the colder side, generating an electrical current.
“The polymers that we use are bendable, lightweight and easy to use in both liquid and solid form. They are also harmless,” says study first author Mariavittoria Craighero. Unlike previous attempts at creating thermoelectric textiles, this breakthrough solves a long-standing problem: the lack of air-stable polymers.
“The new type of polymer has outstanding performance stability in contact with air while at the same time having a very good ability to conduct electricity. By using polymers, we don't need any rare earth metals, which are common in electronics,” explains Craighero.
The new thermoelectric yarn could power sensors in clothing to monitor vital signs like heart rate and body temperature without needing battery changes or recharging. Beyond healthcare, it could enable lowpower functions in smart clothing, such as environmental sensing and location tracking. As power conversion efficiency improves, more power-demanding features can be supported.
While the new polymers mark a major step forward in thermoelectric textiles, it's important to note that the temperature differences in lab tests are much higher than those typically experienced in everyday clothing. As a result, real-world performance may be lower. Moreover, the yarn generates only 0. 67 microwatts at a 70-degree temperature difference, which is far too little to charge devices like smartphones. The manufacturing process is
also time-consuming, requiring four days of manual work to create one piece, making it impractical for large-scale commercial production.
How does the new approach generate electricity
By recycling the flow of air.
By absorbing the energy of sunlight.
By heating the surrounding environment.
By making use of temperature differences.
What advantage do the new polymers have over previous materials
Lower costs. B．Greater safety. C．Higher stability. D．Less weight.
What can we learn about the new yarn from paragraph 5
It needs to be charged regularly.
It has broad application prospects.
It is designed for medical treatment.
It will be launched into the market soon.
What is the last paragraph mainly about
The limitations of putting the polymers into practical use.
The standard of producing the new textile.
The potential of the polymers in powering devices.
The follow-up test plan of scientists.
第二节（共 5 小题, 每小题 2. 5 分, 共 12. 5 分）
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
First of all, we need to understand that handling interpersonal relationships is not as simple as treating others to meals or giving gifts. In today’s era, everyone seems to carry an invisible list of treating and gifting, from dinner parties to wedding banquets, from Mid-Autumn mooncakes to Spring Festival red envelopes, which all seem to be tightly wrapped in the “human relationship culture”. 36
The Mehrabian Principle
Psychologist Albert Mehrabian put forward a very interesting formula, which reveals the importance of the three major elements in communication: the content of words accounts for only 7%, the tone of voice accounts for 38%, and a high 55% of the information actually comes from non-verbal body language. 37
Whether your eyes are wandering or firm when you speak, whether your gestures are fluttering or quiet, these
subtle details that are easily ignored are the truth of interpersonal communication.
Non-verbal Communication
From the perspective of language psychology, a person’s speaking intonation, pitch, and speed will affect others’ understanding of his intentions. At the beginning of Martin Luther King’s speech, his tone was calm and low, with analysis and contemplation, telling the facts of racial inequality and gradually introducing hope.
38 Finally, it reached the peak in “Freedom forever”. The reason why this speech moved the audience was not only relying on the words, but also on the passion and hope conveyed by the tone.
Emotional Capital
The “emotional capital” in sociology can help us understand the role of the Mehrabian Principle in interpersonal relationships. 39 Treating others to meals can accumulate short-term goodwill, but only long-term emotional investment can make interpersonal relationships as stable as bank deposits and play a role at critical moments.
Facial Expression Management
As the saying goes, “You don’t hit a person who smiles at you”. A sincere smile can instantly shorten the distance between people. 40 A face that often wears a smile will make people feel that you are friendly and approachable, and they are willing to have in-depth communication with you.
However, in fact, the key to interpersonal communication does not lie in material things, but in the emotional transmission during communication.
When he said “I have a dream”, his tone rose, full of passion and expectation, and his voice became more powerful and rhythmic.
This means that non-verbal signals are far more influential than the words themselves in communication. D．Emotional capital is a relational asset accumulated through emotional interaction, which creates trust in long-term relationships.
Whether it’s a workplace meeting or a social gathering, a smile is always the best icebreaker.
Many people believe that material gifts are the most direct way to maintain relationships.
It is difficult to build trust with others if you always show a cold or unfriendly expression.

Taihu Lake, China’s third-largest freshwater lake, has reached its best water quality in 30 years, 56
reflects China’s efforts in environmental protection alongside economic growth. Despite a population increase of nearly 7 million and a 3.6-fold economic expansion since 2007, the 57 (lake) water quality has improved from Grade V to Ⅲ.
Restoring large lakes that suffer from eutrophication (富营养化) is 58 global challenge, but the
experience of Taihu Lake has proved that it is possible. In the past two decades, around 55 million cubic meters of silt (淤泥) 59 (remove). In 2024, the intelligent dredging (清淤) ship Taihu Star began operation,
60 (process) up to 5,000 cubic meters daily.
Jiangsu has carried out a range of pollution control measures. It has shut down or restructured nearly 60,000 polluting factories. 190 wetland conservation areas have been established. In September 2024, an intelligent online platform was launched 61 (monitor) water quality.
Last summer, the blue-green algae growth area and the density dropped 62 (significant). The environmental measures have driven industrial transformation. In 2024, high-tech industries accounted 63
over half of the total output of industrial firms above the designated size in three cities of Jiangsu: Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou.
“The Taihu Lake experience shows that with proper policies and strong 64 (commit), lakes can be restored and economic development can go hand in hand with 65 (ecology) protection,” said an official of Jiangsu’s Department of Ecology and Environment.

Every child hopes for gifts for Christmas. But it seemed that my family didn’t have enough money to buy me the bike that I’d wanted for Christmas. After supper was over on Christmas eve, I sat at the table, feeling sorry for myself.
It was cold outside. Soon Dad came back. “Come on, Eric,” he said. “Put on warm clothes. It’s cold out tonight.” I was really upset then. Not only was I not getting the bike for Christmas, but now Dad was dragging me out in the cold. But anyway, I got up and followed him.
Outside, in front of the house, our old truck was ready. The cold was already biting at me. Dad went into the woodshed (柴房) and came out with an armload of wood. “Dad,” I asked, “what are you doing ” He said, “I passed by Ms. Black’s house today. She is a single mother of three kids. Her eldest son, 8-year-old Robert, was out digging around in the woodpile trying to find a few chips. He was just wearing an old thin shirt, trembling with cold. They’re out of wood, Eric.” That was all he said and then he turned and went back into the room for a
big ham. He handed them to me and told me to put them in the truck and wait. When he returned, he was carrying a bag of something in his hand. “What’s in the bag ” I asked. “Coats. They’re out of warm clothes. I got the children a little candy too. It just wouldn’t be Christmas without a little candy.”
We drove two miles to Ms. Black’s house. We stopped at the gate and unloaded the wood, then we took the other things to the door. Ms. Black opened the door and let us in. The room felt cold. Such a small fire could hardly give off any heat at all. So Dad asked me to add more wood to the fire.
注意：
续写词数应为 150 左右；

I soon made the fire burn brighter and everyone’s spirits rose high.

November 23 was the happiest day of last winter for Wang Xiaolong. On that day, he spotted nearly 400 white cranes (鹤) in his patrol (巡逻) area near Poyang Lake.
“I was thrilled. It was the largest number of migratory birds I had seen in months,” Wang said.
Wang has been a patrol officer at the Wucheng protection and administration station of the Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve Bureau for 38 years. Each morning, around 5 am, he rises early, has a simple breakfast, and sets off from the protection station.
“Protecting the birds of Poyang Lake is my duty. This work has become a significant part of my life and holds the utmost importance to me. By protecting nature’s spirits, I have found my life’s purpose,” Wang said.
Wang fondly recalls rescuing a young white crane 20 years ago on a winter’s day. He spotted the injured young crane during his patrol and brought it back to the protection station, where he fed it small fish and shrimp and took it to the bird hospital for treatment.
“I remember when we went to the hospital; I walked in front, and the young crane followed me. We entered the hospital together. After about a month, its injury healed, and I decided to release it back into the wild,” he said. “That day left a deep impression on me. The little white crane circled above my head for a long time before flying away. It felt like it recognized me and was reluctant to leave.”
Over the decades, Wang has rescued and released over 300 birds and participated in more than 180 projects involving the protection of migratory birds. He has received numerous honors, including being named “Jiangxi’s most beautiful environmentalist”.
What made November 23 a remarkable day for Wang last winter
He successfully completed his winter patrol. B．He achieved a personal milestone in his career C．He witnessed an extraordinary gathering of birds D．He received recognition for his conservation efforts.
How does the author develop Wang’s dedication to bird protection

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍王小龙在鄱阳湖保护候鸟 38 年的经历及贡献。
细节理解题。根据第一段“November 23 was the happiest day of last winter for Wang Xiaolong. On that day, he spotted nearly 400 white cranes in his patrol area near Poyang Lake.(11 月 23 日是王小龙去年冬天最开心的一天。那天，他在鄱阳湖附近的巡逻区域发现了近 400 只白鹤。)”可知，11 月 23 日对王小龙来说意义非凡，是因为他目睹了大量候鸟聚集。故选 C 项。
推理判断题。根据第四段““Protecting the birds of Poyang Lake is my duty. This work has become a significant part of my life and holds the utmost importance to me. By protecting nature’s spirits, I have found my life’s purpose,” Wang said. (“保护鄱阳湖的鸟类是我的职责。这份工作已经成为我生活中重要的一部分，对我来说至关重要。通过保护自然界的精灵，我找到了人生的目标，”王说。)”可知，作者通过引用王小龙的个人陈述来体现他对鸟类保护的奉献。故选 D 项。
推理判断题。根据第五段“He spotted the injured young crane during his patrol and brought it back to the
protection station, where he fed it small fish and shrimp and took it to the bird hospital for treatment.(他在巡逻时发现了这只受伤的幼鹤，把它带回了保护站，在那里喂它小鱼小虾，并带它去鸟类医院治疗。)”及第六段中幼鹤康复后不舍离开的描述可知，这段经历体现了王小龙善良且有爱心的性格。故选 D 项。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“He has received numerous honors, including being named “Jiangxi’s most beautiful environmentalist”.

When you picture a zoo, what do you see A lone bear in a concrete cage, pacing aimlessly in front of tourists Or a group of volunteers, trying desperately to clean the body of the giant panda The role of zoos is unclear at first thought. On the one hand, funding from zoos comes from visitors and donors, so to attract the public, zoos must put on a good show. On the other hand, there is a growing cry to protect the animal kingdom from conservation-concerned individuals. That puts zoos in a dilemma.
London Zoo, which opened to members in 1828 as the first scientific zoo, opened its doors to the public 19 years later as it was not receiving sufficient funding. However, when the environmental movement was born in the late 20th Century, London Zoo began to change its focus. In the same year when the IUCN Red List was first published, London Zoo worked with Phoenix Zoo on a cooperative programme to boost Arabian oryx (大羚羊) numbers. London Zoo soon became the model on how to run a zoo that can satisfy both its visitors and its
inhabitants.
Some zoos did not follow suit. The reputation of SeaWorld declined, following the documentary Blackfish, an exposure on SeaWorld’s poor treatment of their killer whales. It is clear from their website that sea creatures’ wellbeing and conservation are not SeaWorld’s priority. They are happy to advertise their sea lion shows and penguin petting experiences, but their conservation “mission” is tucked neatly into a dusty corner of the website.
Knowing that places such as SeaWorld may not provide the best care for their animals, we continue to give them our money.
However, we should not stop visiting zoos. Zoos are essential to our education. Zoos are outdoors, soul-lifting, and in need of footfall to remain open and serving the animal kingdom. So research zoos before you visit them. Only pay for tickets to zoos that commit to conservation, aim to educate rather than entertain and have high animal welfare standards. Do not tolerate any less. Celebrate zoos which do it right.
What leads to the dilemma in paragraph 1
The protest from volunteers. B．The competition among zoos.
C．The pressure from funding and conservation. D．The conflict between visitors and zoo keepers.
Why is London Zoo mentioned
To give an example. B．To introduce an opinion.
C．To make a prediction. D．To recommend a destination.
What does the underlined word “tucked” in paragraph 3 probably mean
Written. B．Divided. C．Hidden. D．Combined.
What does the author suggest visitors do in the last paragraph
Celebrate the animal shows. B．Fund the poorly-managed zoos. C．Recognize zoos devoted to protection. D．Increase their visits to different zoos.
【答案】28．C 29．A 30．C 31．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了动物园处境两难，需吸引游客又要保护动物。伦敦动物园转型成功，而海洋世界饱受诟病。建议选择注重保护、教育和福利的动物园参观。
细节理解题。根据第一段“On the one hand, funding from zoos comes from visitors and donors, so to attract the public, zoos must put on a good show. On the other hand, there is a growing cry to protect the animal kingdom from conservation-concerned individuals. That puts zoos in a dilemma.(一方面，动物园的资金来自游客和捐赠者，所以为了吸引公众，动物园必须表演得精彩些。另一方面，越来越多的人呼吁保护动物王国，以免受到那些出于保护动机的个人的破坏。这就让动物园陷入了两难的境地)”可知，导致第一段中所描述的这种
困境的原因是资金与保护方面的压力。故选 C。
推理判断题。根据第二段“London Zoo, which opened to members in 1828 as the first scientific zoo, opened its doors to the public 19 years later as it was not receiving sufficient funding. However, when the environmental movement was born in the late 20th Century, London Zoo began to change its focus. In the same year when the IUCN Red List was first published, London Zoo worked with Phoenix Zoo on a cooperative programme to boost Arabian oryx (大羚羊) numbers. London Zoo soon became the model on how to run a zoo that can satisfy both its visitors and its inhabitants.(伦敦动物园于 1828 年作为首家科学动物园向会员开放，19 年后因资金不足而向
公众开放。然而，在 20 世纪末环保运动兴起之时，伦敦动物园开始转变其发展方向。在《世界自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名录》首次发布的同一年，伦敦动物园与菲尼克斯动物园合作开展了一项合作项目，以增加阿拉伯大羚羊的数量。伦敦动物园很快成为了如何运营既能满足游客需求又能照顾动物的动物园的典范)”可知，提到伦敦动物园是为了举例说明。故选 A。
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“They are happy to advertise their sea lion shows and penguin petting experiences, but their conservation “mission” is(他们乐于宣传海狮表演和企鹅亲密接触活动，但其“保护使 命”……)”以及后文“into a dusty corner of the website (在网站的一个不起眼的角落里)”可知，上文中 but 表示转折，后文提到了在网站的一个不起眼的角落里，说明“保护使命”被隐藏起来。故划线词意思是“隐藏”。故选 C。
细节理解题。根据最后一段“So research zoos before you visit them. Only pay for tickets to zoos that commit to conservation, aim to educate rather than entertain and have high animal welfare standards. Do not tolerate any less. Celebrate zoos which do it right.(所以在参观动物园之前，要先进行一番研究。只购买那些致力于保护工作、旨在教育而非娱乐、并且有高标准动物福利的动物园的门票。不要容忍任何低于标准的行为。要赞美

Forget to bring your charger What if your clothing could generate electricity from the heat your body naturally produces This futuristic concept is becoming a reality.
Scientists at Chalmers University and Link ping University in Sweden have developed a new yarn (纱线) that can generate electricity from body heat, using a polymer coating (聚合物涂层) applied to ordinary silk yarn. The principle is the thermoelectric effect (热电效应), where temperature differences between the human body and its surrounding environment create electrical energy. As the human body produces constant heat, the warmer side
of the thermoelectric material transfers electrons to the colder side, generating an electrical current.
“The polymers that we use are bendable, lightweight and easy to use in both liquid and solid form. They are also harmless,” says study first author Mariavittoria Craighero. Unlike previous attempts at creating thermoelectric textiles, this breakthrough solves a long-standing problem: the lack of air-stable polymers.
“The new type of polymer has outstanding performance stability in contact with air while at the same time having a very good ability to conduct electricity. By using polymers, we don't need any rare earth metals, which are common in electronics,” explains Craighero.
The new thermoelectric yarn could power sensors in clothing to monitor vital signs like heart rate and body temperature without needing battery changes or recharging. Beyond healthcare, it could enable lowpower functions in smart clothing, such as environmental sensing and location tracking. As power conversion efficiency improves, more power-demanding features can be supported.
While the new polymers mark a major step forward in thermoelectric textiles, it's important to note that the temperature differences in lab tests are much higher than those typically experienced in everyday clothing. As a result, real-world performance may be lower. Moreover, the yarn generates only 0. 67 microwatts at a 70-degree temperature difference, which is far too little to charge devices like smartphones. The manufacturing process is also time-consuming, requiring four days of manual work to create one piece, making it impractical for large-scale commercial production.
How does the new approach generate electricity
By recycling the flow of air.
By absorbing the energy of sunlight.
By heating the surrounding environment.
By making use of temperature differences.
What advantage do the new polymers have over previous materials
Lower costs. B．Greater safety. C．Higher stability. D．Less weight.
What can we learn about the new yarn from paragraph 5
It needs to be charged regularly.
It has broad application prospects.
It is designed for medical treatment.
It will be launched into the market soon.
What is the last paragraph mainly about
The limitations of putting the polymers into practical use.
The standard of producing the new textile.
The potential of the polymers in powering devices.
The follow-up test plan of scientists.
【答案】32．D 33．C 34．B 35．A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了能够利用温差产生电能的新型聚合物，可用于丝线。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“The principle is the thermoelectric effect (热电效应), where temperature differences between the human body and its surrounding environment create electrical energy. (原理是热电效应，这一原理下人体与其周围环境之间的温差产生电能)”可知，这一新产电方法是利用了温差。故选 D 项。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Unlike previous attempts at creating thermoelectric textiles, this breakthrough solves a long-standing problem: the lack of air-stable polymers. (与之前制造热电纺织品的尝试不同，这一突破解决了一个长期存在的问题：缺乏空气稳定的聚合物)”可知，这一新的尝试解决了一个长期存在的问题，即缺乏空气稳定的聚合物，也就是说这一新的尝试，得出来的聚合物更加稳定，同样，第四段第一句“The new type of polymer has outstanding performance stability in contact with air while at the same time having a very good ability to conduct electricity. (这种新型聚合物在与空气接触时具有出色的性能稳定 性，同时具有非常好的导电能力)”也指出这种聚合物的稳定性好，导电能力强。故选 C 项。
34．推理判断题。根据第五段“The new thermoelectric yarn could power sensors in clothing to monitor vital signs
like heart rate and body temperature without needing battery changes or recharging. Beyond healthcare, it could enable lowpower functions in smart clothing, such as environmental sensing and location tracking. As power

第二节（共 5 小题, 每小题 2. 5 分, 共 12. 5 分）
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
First of all, we need to understand that handling interpersonal relationships is not as simple as treating others to meals or giving gifts. In today’s era, everyone seems to carry an invisible list of treating and gifting, from dinner parties to wedding banquets, from Mid-Autumn mooncakes to Spring Festival red envelopes, which all seem to be tightly wrapped in the “human relationship culture”. 36
The Mehrabian Principle
Psychologist Albert Mehrabian put forward a very interesting formula, which reveals the importance of the three major elements in communication: the content of words accounts for only 7%, the tone of voice accounts for 38%, and a high 55% of the information actually comes from non-verbal body language. 37
Whether your eyes are wandering or firm when you speak, whether your gestures are fluttering or quiet, these subtle details that are easily ignored are the truth of interpersonal communication.
Non-verbal Communication
From the perspective of language psychology, a person’s speaking intonation, pitch, and speed will affect others’ understanding of his intentions. At the beginning of Martin Luther King’s speech, his tone was calm and low, with analysis and contemplation, telling the facts of racial inequality and gradually introducing hope.
38 Finally, it reached the peak in “Freedom forever”. The reason why this speech moved the audience was
not only relying on the words, but also on the passion and hope conveyed by the tone.
Emotional Capital
The “emotional capital” in sociology can help us understand the role of the Mehrabian Principle in interpersonal relationships. 39 Treating others to meals can accumulate short-term goodwill, but only long-term emotional investment can make interpersonal relationships as stable as bank deposits and play a role at critical moments.
Facial Expression Management
As the saying goes, “You don’t hit a person who smiles at you”. A sincere smile can instantly shorten the distance between people. 40 A face that often wears a smile will make people feel that you are friendly and approachable, and they are willing to have in-depth communication with you.
However, in fact, the key to interpersonal communication does not lie in material things, but in the emotional transmission during communication.
When he said “I have a dream”, his tone rose, full of passion and expectation, and his voice became more powerful and rhythmic.
This means that non-verbal signals are far more influential than the words themselves in communication. D．Emotional capital is a relational asset accumulated through emotional interaction, which creates trust in long-term relationships.
Whether it’s a workplace meetingor a social gathering, a smile is always the best icebreaker.
Many people believe that material gifts are the most direct way to maintain relationships.
It is difficult to build trust with others if you always show a cold or unfriendly expression.
象，“the key to interpersonal communication does not lie in material things”点明核心在于情感传递，与前文形成对比。故选 A 项。
由上文“Psychologist Albert Mehrabian put forward a very interesting formula, which reveals the importance of the three major elements in communication: the content of words accounts for only 7%, the tone of voice accounts for 38%, and a high 55% of the information actually comes from non-verbal body language. (心理学家 Albert Mehrabian 提出了一个非常有趣的公式，揭示了沟通中三大要素的重要性：语言的内容仅占 7%，语调占 38%，55%的信息实际上来自非言语肢体语言。)”可知，数据突出了非语言信号的重要性。C 项 This
means that non-verbal signals are far more influential than the words themselves in communication. (这意味着在
沟通中，非语言信号比语言本身更具影响力。)是对前文数据的总结，“This means”呼应前文的公式结论， “non-verbal signals are far more influential”直接体现数据所揭示的规律。故选 C 项。
由上文“At the beginning of Martin Luther King’s speech, his tone was calm and low, with analysis and contemplation, telling the facts of racial inequality and gradually introducing hope. (马丁·路德·金演讲伊始， 语调平静低沉，带着分析与沉思，讲述种族不平等的事实，并逐渐引入希望。)”可知，前文描述了演讲开始时的语调，空格处应延续对演讲过程中语调变化的描述。B 项 When he said “I have a dream”, his tone rose, full of passion and expectation, and his voice became more powerful and rhythmic. (当他说出“我有一个梦想”时，语调上扬，充满激情与期待，声音也变得更有力、更有节奏。)符合语境，“When he said “I have a dream””
具体描述演讲中的关键部分，“tone rose”与前文“tone was calm and low”形成对比，体现语调变化。故选 B 项。
由上文“The “emotional capital” in sociology can help us understand the role of the Mehrabian Principle in interpersonal relationships. (社会学中的“情感资本”有助于我们理解梅拉比安法则在人际关系中的作用。)”可 知，前文引出“情感资本”这一概念，空格处应解释其含义。D 项 Emotional capital is a relational asset accumulated through emotional interaction, which creates trust in long-term relationships. (情感资本是通过情感 互动积累的关系资产，它在长期关系中建立信任。)符合语境，直接对“emotional capital”下定义，“accumulated through emotional interaction”和“creates trust”解释了其本质与作用，承接前文对概念的引入。故选 D 项。 40．由上文“A sincere smile can instantly shorten the distance between people. (真诚的微笑能瞬间拉近人与人之间的距离。)”和下文“A face that often wears a smile will make people feel that you are friendly and approachable, and they are willing to have in-depth communication with you. (一张经常面带微笑的脸会让人觉得你很友好，平易近人，他们愿意和你进行深入的交流。)”可知，上下文均围绕“微笑”的作用展开，空格处应进一步说明微笑在不同场景中的作用。E 项 Whether it’s a workplace meeting or a social gathering, a smile is always the best icebreaker. (无论是职场会议还是社交聚会，微笑都是最好的破冰方式。)符合语境， “Whether...or...”列举不同场景，“best icebreaker”呼应前文“shorten the distance”和后文“friendly and

第二节 （共 10 小题；每小题 1. 5 分, 满分 15 分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Taihu Lake, China’s third-largest freshwater lake, has reached its best water quality in 30 years, 56
reflects China’s efforts in environmental protection alongside economic growth. Despite a population increase of nearly 7 million and a 3.6-fold economic expansion since 2007, the 57 (lake) water quality has improved from Grade V to Ⅲ.
Restoring large lakes that suffer from eutrophication (富营养化) is 58 global challenge, but the
experience of Taihu Lake has proved that it is possible. In the past two decades, around 55 million cubic meters of silt (淤泥) 59 (remove). In 2024, the intelligent dredging (清淤) ship Taihu Star began operation,
60 (process) up to 5,000 cubic meters daily.
Jiangsu has carried out a range of pollution control measures. It has shut down or restructured nearly 60,000 polluting factories. 190 wetland conservation areas have been established. In September 2024, an intelligent online platform was launched 61 (monitor) water quality.
Last summer, the blue-green algae growth area and the density dropped 62 (significant). The environmental measures have driven industrial transformation. In 2024, high-tech industries accounted 63
over half of the total output of industrial firms above the designated size in three cities of Jiangsu: Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou.
“The Taihu Lake experience shows that with proper policies and strong 64 (commit), lakes can be restored and economic development can go hand in hand with 65 (ecology) protection,” said an official of Jiangsu’s Department of Ecology and Environment.
考查冠词。句意：恢复遭受富营养化的大型湖泊是一项全球性挑战，但太湖的经验证明这是可能的。此处泛指“一项全球性挑战”，global 以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词 a。故填 a。
考查动词时态和语态。句意：在过去的二十年里，大约有 5500 万立方米的淤泥被清除。主语 silt 和谓语动词 remove 之间是被动关系，根据时间状语 In the past two decades 可知，此处应用现在完成时的被动语态，主语表示单数意义，助动词用 has。故填 has been removed。
考查非谓语动词。句意：2024 年，智能清淤船“太湖之星”开始运行，每天可处理多达 5000 立方米的淤泥。本句已有谓语动词 began，所以 process 为非谓语形式，和逻辑主语 the intelligent dredging (清淤) ship Taihu Star 之间是主动关系，用现在分词形式作状语。故填 processing。 61．考查非谓语动词。句意：2024 年 9 月，一个监测水质的智能在线平台上线。本句已有谓语动词 was
launched，所以 monitor 用非谓语形式，此处表示目的，应用动词不定式形式作目的状语。故填 to monitor。 62．考查副词。句意：去年夏天，蓝藻生长面积和密度显著下降。此处修饰动词dropped，应用副词significantly作状语。故填 significantly。
63．考查介词。句意：2024 年，在江苏的苏州、无锡和常州三个城市，高科技产业占规模以上工业企业总产值的比重超过一半。短语 account for，含义为（“ 在数量、比例上）占”，是固定短语。故填 for。 64．考查名词。句意：江苏省生态环境厅的一位官员表示：“太湖的经验表明，只要有适当的政策和强有力的承诺，湖泊可以得到恢复，经济发展可以与生态保护齐头并进。”此处和 proper policies 并列，应用名词 commitment“承诺”作介词 with 的宾语，commitment 是抽象名词，不可数。故填 commitment。 65．考查形容词。句意：江苏省生态环境厅的一位官员表示：“太湖的经验表明，只要有适当的政策和强有力的承诺，湖泊可以得到恢复，经济发展可以与生态保护齐头并进。”此处修饰名词 protection，应用形容词 ecological“生态的”作定语。故填 ecological。

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。
Every child hopes for gifts for Christmas. But it seemed that my family didn’t have enough money to buy me the bike that I’d wanted for Christmas. After supper was over on Christmas eve, I sat at the table, feeling sorry for myself.
It was cold outside. Soon Dad came back. “Come on, Eric,” he said. “Put on warm clothes. It’s cold out tonight.” I was really upset then. Not only was I not getting the bike for Christmas, but now Dad was dragging me out in the cold. But anyway, I got up and followed him.
Outside, in front of the house, our old truck was ready. The cold was already biting at me. Dad went into the woodshed (柴房) and came out with an armload of wood. “Dad,” I asked, “what are you doing ” He said, “I passed by Ms. Black’s house today. She is a single mother of three kids. Her eldest son, 8-year-old Robert, was out digging around in the woodpile trying to find a few chips. He was just wearing an old thin shirt, trembling
with cold. They’re out of wood, Eric.” That was all he said and then he turned and went back into the room for a big ham. He handed them to me and told me to put them in the truck and wait. When he returned, he was carrying a bag of something in his hand. “What’s in the bag ” I asked. “Coats. They’re out of warm clothes. I got the children a little candy too. It just wouldn’t be Christmas without a little candy.”
We drove two miles to Ms. Black’s house. We stopped at the gate and unloaded the wood, then we took the other things to the door. Ms. Black opened the door and let us in. The room felt cold. Such a small fire could hardly give off any heat at all. So Dad asked me to add more wood to the fire.

I soon made the fire burn brighter and everyone’s spirits rose high. The room felt warm now. The kids
started giggling when Dad handed them each a piece of candy and a coat. Ms. Black looked with a smile. “The children and I have been praying that angels would come to our help and here you come,” she said with tears running down her face. Dad took each of the kids in his big arms and gave them a hug before we left. Out on the truck I felt a warmth that came from deep within and I didn’t even notice the cold.
On the way back home, Dad turned to me and began to explain about the bike I had longed for. It turned
out that he and Mom had finally saved enough money to buy that bike for me. On his way to buy me the gift, Dad saw little Robert out of his house with an old thin shirt. “Son, I spent the money saved fo
