第一节 应用文 参考范文
Physical or online bookstores, which do you prefer
Nowadays, opinions vary among people towards physical and online bookstores. From my perspective, I tend to opt for the latter. The reasons are as follows.
First and foremost, online bookstores offer a wide range of selections, even some classic editions that are hard to find in physical ones. What’s more, just with a click on the screen, we can pick and purchase books anywhere and anytime, which saves us a large amount of time. Additionally, besides the pocket-friendly discounts online, what seems unique about online bookstores is the frank book reviews from other readers, which may also surprise us!
All in all, I prefer online bookstores for their extensive options, time economy and high efficiency.
第二节 读后续写 参考范文
After much hesitation, I called Mom for help. I told her about the old lady murmuring “My … daughter …” and my concern that she might be lost. Hearing what I said, Mom arrived in a hurry, her nursing home uniform still on. She gently approached and held the lady’s hands softly. “Auntie, I’m from Greenfield. Do you live there ” With her eyes lighting up, she nodded slightly. After checking with her workmates, mom confirmed she was actually from the nursing home where she worked. She then carefully took her by the arm and whispered comforting words in her ear.
Mom’s gentle care for the old lady inspired me to do something for the nursing home. The next weekends, I often went to Greenfield with Mom. I helped comb their hair and listened to their stories, just as Mom did. I also sang the songs for the seniors, who clapped warmly. Seeing their bright smiles, I finally understood Mom’s choice—to devote herself to caring for those in need. Now, I become a volunteer there, deeply realizing that love and kindness are the warmest companions for everyone, and that helping others brings a profound joy which enriches my soul.

【答案解析】
A篇主题语境：人与社会——旅游、交通与通讯
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文 。文章介绍了Skyjet航空公司的舱位等级、对应权益，以及夏季促销活动的不同优惠政策、适用时间与条件。
第21题.B 细节理解能力。解析：表格中“Premium Economy（超级经济舱）”对应的“Includes” 列，明确该舱位包含“2 checked bags, meal, priority boarding（2 件托运行李、餐食、优先登机）”。B项 Priority boarding（优先登机）符合超级经济舱的服务内容，故选B。
第22题.C 细节理解+简单计算。解析：促销信息中明确“Buy before June 15 and get: 25% off Business Class fares（6月15日前购票，商务舱享75折）”。6月2日在6月15日之前，可享受该折扣。商务舱原价为 $480，折后价格为：480×(1 25%)=480×0.75=360，故选C。
第23题.D 推理判断能力。解析：文本是航空公司的机票促销、舱位介绍类信息，属于旅游出行范畴。D项A travel magazine（旅行杂志）是旅游出行信息的常见载体，符合文本场景，故选D。
B篇主题语境：人与社会——文学与艺术
【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章作者通过引用马克·吐温的名言和自身经历，阐述重写对文学创作的重要性，强调精准用词与持久热情是完成优秀作品的关键。
第24题.A 细节理解与隐喻解读。解析：马克·吐温将“正确的词”比作“闪电”，将“接近正确的词”比作“萤火虫”，强调用词精准的极端重要性。后文提到“重写是真正作家的诞生过程”，并描述其为“崎岖之路”，可见其隐含意义是 “修改是一条崎岖之路”。故选A。
第25题.D 作者观点态度。解析：文中用“tiring process”“hard part”“exhausting session”等词描述重写，且提到作者曾想放弃，说明这是一个 “费力的、艰辛的” 过程。故选D。
第26题.D 段落主旨概括。解析：第四段详细叙述作者在重写中陷入自我怀疑，通过电影《时间规划局》联想到时间投入的恐惧，最终与自我达成和解——通过逐页自问“是否喜爱”来重燃热情。因此段落核心是 “如何重燃对重写的热情”。故选D。
第27题.B 文本主旨与建议意图。解析：作者建议“逐页审视作品，重燃热情”，并再次强调“正确的词是追求卓越的关键”，呼应开篇马克·吐温的观点。因此 advice 的核心是 “强调恰当措辞的重要性”。故选B。
C篇主题语境：人与自然——环境保护与生态平衡
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章以斑马贻贝为例，介绍了外来入侵物种对生态系统和人类生活造成的危害，并提出了防治措施。
第28题.A 文章结构意图题（开篇作用）。解析： 首段先列举常见的环境问题（污染、资源过度开发等），再引出“物种入侵”这一容易被忽视的问题，并点明斑马贻贝为例。这是典型的“由一般到具体”的引题方式，旨在自然导入主题，而非强调影响或论证观点。故选A。
第29题.C 细节理解与信息筛选。解析：A错：原文第二段指出斑马贻贝生活在淡水及低盐度海域（less salty），并非需要高盐水。B错：它们已通过船只传播到欧洲和北美，并非只存在于欧亚。C对：第三段首句明确说明它们破坏生态系统平衡。D错：文中只说它们捕食浮游植物效率高，并未与其他物种比较食量。故选C。
第30题.B 词义猜测题（通过上下文推断）。解析： 第四段提到斑马贻贝附着在管道内壁，导致清洁饮用水供应受阻。根据“prevent... from getting clean drinking water”可推知“obstruct”意为“阻塞、阻碍”，与“block”同义。故选B。
第31题.C 段落主旨题。解析： 末段首句指出清除斑马贻贝困难，因此重点应转向防止扩散；后续内容具体说明政府和个人应采取的措施（清理船只、排空晾干等）。全段核心是防治手段，而非强调危害或繁殖速度。故选C。
D篇主题语境：人与社会——科学与技术（人工智能的社会影响与人类认知）
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是芬兰阿尔托大学的研究发现，使用人工智能（如ChatGPT）会削弱甚至逆转“邓宁-克鲁格效应”，导致所有用户过度信赖AI答案，且经验丰富的用户尤其明显，这可能损害人们的元认知能力与决策质量。
第32题.C 细节理解。解析：第一段明确指出，研究显示使用聊天机器人时，“每个人都倾向于过度相信答案的质量”，与C选项一致。故选C。
第33题.B 段落主旨。解析：第二段描述了研究的具体步骤：选取受试者、分组、完成任务、测试AI素养与自我评估等，属于研究过程的说明，故选B。
第34题.A 因果推断。解析：文章第四段明确指出，研究发现用户普遍高估自身能力的原因在于“LLMs在某种程度上帮助每个人都表现得更好”。这是研究结论中直接陈述的因果关系，故选A。
第35题.C 逻辑预测。解析：最后一段重点讨论了AI使用可能带来的风险，包括元认知能力下降、决策失误增多、技能退化等。按照行文逻辑，接下来最可能探讨的应是应对这些风险的方法，即如何防止用户的认知能力下降，故选C。
七选五主题语境：人与社会——人际关系与家庭互动
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Becca最初对家庭春假旅行（去大弯曲国家公园）感到失望和抵触，但在亲眼目睹自然奇观后态度发生转变，并从中领悟到保持开放心态的重要性。
第36题.G 上下文逻辑衔接（因果解释）。解析：前文提到Becca对旅行不感兴趣，只知道朋友说的两个缺点；后文描写她扔行李、翻白眼等动作，说明她对父母的决定不满。G项“她从心底质疑父母的决定”正好衔接前后，解释她行为的原因。
第37题.B 情绪递进与反应描写。解析：前文母亲回答车程五小时，后文Becca抱怨“沿途风景好吗”，说明她情绪更糟。B项“听到这个，她的心情更差了”准确承接了“五小时车程”带来的负面情绪升级。
第38题.F 行为动作的顺承。解析：前文是Becca的抱怨，后文写她靠枕头睡觉。F项“Becca一言不发地不情愿地跳进后座”既呼应了不满情绪，又自然引出上车后睡觉的行为。
第39题.C 场景描写与情感转折。解析：前文全家惊讶地盯着美洲狮，后文Becca主动表达赞叹。C项“Becca被这令人惊叹的景象震撼了”准确描述了她的心理状态，并引出下文的态度转变。
第40题.A 主题升华与道理总结。解析：前文父母强调“保持开放心态”“自然总有新发现”，后文需要一句积极总结。A项“我们一定能在自然中发现奇迹”既呼应前文“发现新事物”，又点明文章主旨，符合父亲说话的语气。
完形填空主题语境：人与自我——生活与学习
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位女性年轻时申请摩托车特技骑手未果，转而学习飞行并成为飞行员，49年后意外收到当年录用通知的故事，展现了人生充满可能、不应自我设限的主题。

Mark Twain’s words strike a deep chord（心弦）with writers, “The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug. ” This quote shows the tiring process of rewriting a novel. The first draft feels like an exciting first date—full of promise and relaxation. You finish with a broad smile, imagining readers applauding your brilliance.
But that honeymoon period lasts only about 48 hours. Soon, the sinking feeling sets in as you revisit your draft, realizing the hard part has just begun. Rewriting is where real writers emerge. It’s time to dig deep, pulling out the tools and techniques you’ve gathered over the years. You revisit your favorite authors, hoping they’ll offer guidance for navigating the rocky road of revision.
Rewriting demands you comb through each sentence, ensuring it contains the exact right word. Every character must earn its place in the story, and each chapter should contribute meaningfully to the narrative. Even your beloved pieces of dialogue may need to be cut.
I learned this while working on my novel. The rewriting process haunted（萦绕）me, and I often questioned if the effort was worth it. One night, nearing 2 a.m. after an exhausting session, I thought about abandoning my work. That’s when I came across the film In Time, which highlighted my deepest fear: the time invested in my novel. At that moment, I struck a deal with myself. I decided to cease the self-criticism and recapture the joy that fueled my writing. I committed to evaluating my work page by page, asking, “Do I love it ” If not, I replaced it.
Here’s my advice: reawaken your passion and examine your work one page at a time. Writing is a journey, and the rewriting period bridges inspiration and a satisfying finished product. Remember, the “right word” is the key to excellence.
24. What do Mark Twain’s words imply
A. Revising is a rocky road. B. Readers’ feeling matters.
C. Quoting precisely is a must. D. The first draft rarely falls short.
25. What does the author think of rewriting
A. Time-wasting. B. Labor-saving. C. Heartbreaking. D. Painstaking.
26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. Which word should be highlighted.
B. Why the writing process is questioned.
C. What the film In Time talks about.
D. How the passion for rewriting is fueled.
27. What does the author’s advice show
A. The role of inspiration in writing.
B. The importance of proper wording.
C. The reason for making rewriting unique.
D. The journey to creating an excellent product.
C
When we talk of human actions harming the environment, we often think of pollution, overuse of resources or destruction of habitats. But introducing new species into areas where they don’t naturally live can also be destructive. One such invasive（入侵的）species is the zebra mussel.
Zebra mussels live in fresh water and are native to the Caspian and Black Seas, which are found in between Europe and Asia. These seas are less salty than most, so a freshwater species like the zebra mussel can live there and in nearby lakes. By attaching onto ships, the mollusks（软体动物）have spread to much of Europe and North America, causing a problem for the environment and humans alike.
When species are abruptly introduced to a new ecosystem, they often damage the balance of that ecosystem, and zebra mussels are no exception. They feed by phytoplankton（浮游植物）and other nutrients out of the water when they pass through their shells, and they do so with striking efficiency. This means that when zebra mussels arrive in a new area, they consume so much phytoplankton that other species that also eat the same food source struggle to get a sufficient amount of food. Since those other creatures, in turn, are a food source for still other species, zebra mussels harm everything in the lake.
Zebra mussels also create problems for humans because they multiply so quickly. They often grow on objects made by humans, and groups of them can prevent these objects from functioning. For example, zebra mussels have been known to obstruct the flow of water through pipes, which can prevent communities from getting clean drinking water. They attach to these objects firmly enough that they can prove difficult and expensive to clean.
Removal of zebra mussels is incredibly difficult, so only by stopping them from spreading can people limit the troubles they cause.

Scientists at Finland’s Aalto University have found that using artificial intelligence (AI) almost removes and reverses（逆转）the Dunning-Kruger effect, a phenomenon that people who aren’t very good at a given task are overconfident, while people with high ability tend to underestimate their skills. Their research showed that when using common chatbots to solve problems, everyone (regardless of their skill level) tended to put too much faith in the quality of the answers, with the most experienced AI users doing so the most.
In the study, scientists gave 500 subjects logical reasoning tasks, with half allowed to use ChatGPT. Both groups were later quizzed on both their AI literacy and how well they thought they performed, and promised extra rewards if they assessed their own performance accurately.
The reasons behind the findings are varied. Because AI users were usually satisfied with their answer after only one question or prompt（提示）, accepting the answer without further checking or confirmation, they can be said to have engaged in what Robin Welsch, an Aalto University computer scientist, calls “cognitive（认知）offloading”—exploring the question with reduced reflection, and approaching it in a more “shallow” way.
Such less engagement in our own reasoning means we bypass the usual feedback process of critical thinking, which reduces our ability to assess our performance accurately. Even more revealing was the fact that we all overestimate our abilities when using AI, regardless of our intelligence, with the gap between high- and low-skill users reducing. The study owed this to the fact that large language models (LLMs) help everyone perform better to some degree. Meanwhile, the Aalto team warned of several potential impacts as AI becomes more widespread.
Firstly, metacognitive accuracy overall might suffer. Without reflecting on results, error checking or deeper reasoning, we risk weakening our ability to source information reliably, the scientists said in the study. What’s more, the flattening of the Dunning-Kruger Effect will mean we’ll all continue to overestimate our abilities while using AI, with the more AI-literate among us doing so even more—leading to an increased climate of miscalculated decision-making and a drop in their skills.
32. What did Aalto University researchers discover about AI chatbot use
A. Low-ability users became less confident.
B. It strengthened the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
C. Users generally over-trusted the chatbot’s answers.
D. Only beginners often thought highly of their abilities.
33. Which aspect of the research is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The purpose. B. The process. C. The subjects. D. The findings.
34. Why do the users often overestimate their abilities
A. LLMs’ aid improves users’ task performance.
B. Users often skip the process of critical thinking.
C. AI tools contribute to users’ metacognitive accuracy.
D. The gap between high- and low-skill AI users is bridged.
35. What will be probably talked about in the following paragraph
A. Regulations for narrowing AI users’ skill gap.
B. Guidelines for sourcing information reliably.
C. Methods for preventing users’ cognitive decline.
D. Tips for improving the subjects’ performance.

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。
My mom, an experienced professional caregiver, works at a nursing home named Greenfield. Helping and caring for the seniors in need is her routine, the Alzheimer’s（阿尔茨海默症）patients in particular. And mom always says: “They need me, honey! I must keep a close eye on them in case they forget their way back or get into trouble!”
That really let me down. For thousands of times, how I wished mom could accompany me but not them, especially in the moments like my singing show, school open day,. . . . But “her empty seat” showed everything. Such is my Mom, who is always there for her beloved elders.
As scheduled on Monday morning, our singing contest themed “For Mama” arrived. This was no exception for her! With others’ moms seated, I took my turn standing on the stage, “the empty seat” igniting my eyes! “Need her again!” I thought to myself. The well-prepared song still at the tip of my tongue, I hurriedly finished my part, stepped off the stage, and rushed out of the hall. Anger washed over me nonstop all the time.
After school, head down, I dragged my feet on the road and couldn’t help complaining about mom’s absence. “My...daughter...my...”, an old lady out of nowhere came over to me. She repeated the same words, which added to my annoyance. “Out of my way!” popped out of my mouth, and I quickened my pace to avoid her intentionally.
And almost immediately, I felt a bit sorry for my rude behaviors. So, I slowed down, thinking to myself, “Why is the old lady always murmuring（低语）‘My...daughter...’ ” “Is she OK ” “Get lost ” or “Alzheimer’s ” A stream of questions flooded into my mind. Occupied with such guesses, I turned back to look for the old lady. Luckily, she was still standing where she had been. Nevertheless, apart from the repeated “My...”, I knew nothing more about her. I was totally at a loss what to do next.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
After much hesitation, I called Mom for help.
Mom’s gentle care for the old lady inspired me to do something for the nursing home.
