A
The gradual return of the private buyer to the new car market helped to push up sales as
number plates changed in March.
Most car buyers in March also changed their preferences for vehicle types, with a particular
focus on how the vehicles are powered. Electric vehicles, including fully electric cars and hybrids,
are gaining significant popularity. Sales of petrol cars now account for less than half of the market.
While the government policymakers have pushed people to buy fully electric zero-emission cars,
many consumers appear to choose hybrids instead, which are partly battery-powered but also carry
petrol engines. With the growing popularity, the sales of hybrids now are on the rise. Here is the
pie chart illustrating the sales proportion of vehicle types in March 2025.
3
Sales of fully electric cars hit a new monthly record, up to about 69,000 in March 2025, yet
their market share dropped to just over 20% for the first quarter, as the popularity of hybrids grew
even faster. That is a crucial number, because car makers have to sell 28 percent of their cars as
zero-emission models in 2025 or face fines of up to 15,000 for every car they fail to sell to meet
the government’s requirement.
Nick, an analyst in the local auto industry, believes electric car sales are being artificially
increased, mainly because car makers are cutting prices just to hit their sales targets. Meanwhile,
many people rushed to buy cars before a new tax on expensive cars started this week.
“Car makers remain committed to the market decarbonisation(碳减排) that the country and
the environment demand but we need sustained growth, not a short-term bubble driven by
unsustainable discounting and drivers rushing to avoid higher taxes,” said Nick. He also believed
that the government policymakers should consider the “natural demand” for electric cars.
21. What was the percentage of electric vehicles sales in March 2025
A. 19%. B. 45%. C. 28%. D. 20%.
22. What is the major reason for the increase in electric car sales according to Nick
A. A new tax on cars. B. The change of number plates.
C. Policies pushing for electric cars. D. The reduction of car prices.
23. What will Nick agree with about the government’s electric car policy
A. Ignoring the decarbonisation.
B. Taking the market needs into account.
C. Strengthening the discounting policy.
D. Setting a lower zero-emission sales standard.
B
Jason Haney is a construction worker from Indiana. When he began his current job as
foreman on a site opposite a children’s hospital, this awesome dad and hobby artist had a brilliant
idea.
Haney noticed that many of the sick kids at the Memorial Children’s Hospital in South Bend
could not go outside, and his construction site was the only view from their hospital rooms. So
together with his teenage daughter, Haney built a 2.5 meter tall plywood (胶合板) cut out of Waldo
from the famous Where’s Waldo books.
4
Every day, the workers hide Waldo in a different spot on the construction site, giving the
children a new challenge. As soon as Haney finds out that the kids have found Waldo, the cutout
gets moved to a new secret hiding spot and the game begins again.
Heidi Prescott, a spokeswoman for Beacon Health System, which runs the hospital, said the
project began one winter when the workers put up an inflatable (可 充 气 的 ) snowman for the
children. The kids loved the idea and from there it quickly developed into the Waldo cutout.
“It didn’t take long to catch on, the kids whether they are in the rooms or in a play area, they
look across as soon as they get to the window,” Prescott told ABC News. “They will look all over
the building, point and exclaim “I found him！”
Haney, meanwhile, simply enjoys knowing that he can brighten the children’s day and make
them forget that they are in hospital for a few minutes. Jason has said over and over again, “All I
did this for was to make the kids smile.”
Haney even created a Facebook group where he leaves clues as to where Waldo might be
hiding and the children can post photos of their findings. The project has been a huge success, with
hundreds of people sharing photos of Waldo and happy parents thanking Haney for making an
otherwise difficult visit to the hospital just that little bit more enjoyable.
24. Why did Jason Haney create the Waldo cutout
A. To advertise his construction site.
B. To bring joy to some sick kids.
C. To practice his hobby of art.
D. To attract more attention.
25. What can we learn about the Waldo game from paragraph 3
A. The kids need to find Waldo once a week.
B. The game ends when all kids find Waldo.
C. The game is kept going by moving Waldo regularly.
D. Everyone can hide Waldo if they find it on the spot.
26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs
A. Parents think highly of the Waldo project.
B. Haney’s next project will be more successful.
C. The Facebook group is where to find Waldo.
D. Haney posted photos online to encourage the ill kids.

27．Which of the following words can best describe Jason Haney
A. Selfless and humorous. B. Kind-hearted and creative.
C. Talkative and generous. D. Considerate and serious.
C
In early February 2026, ByteDance’s latest AI video model, Seedance 2.0, captured global
attention. It is celebrated for its powerful capabilities, becoming one of the most discussed tech
topics.
What makes Seedance 2.0 stand out It can generate both video and synchronized (同步的)
sound simultaneously, producing remarkably natural results. Its key advantage is multi-lens
storytelling. From a short text or a single image, it can produce coherent scenes while maintaining
consistency in characters, lighting, and style. The model also supports 2K resolution and accepts
various inputs, making video creation more pared with competitors such as OpenAI’
s Sora, Seedance 2.0 demonstrates strong performance in both speed and output quality. Industry
experts view it as a powerful tool for creators rather than a replacement boosting sectors such as
media, short-term drama, and digital content creation.
However, its launch swiftly triggered intense ethical debates. A major concern arose when
tests showed that the model could generate realistic videos, including matching voices, from just a
portrait photo. This raised immediate alarms about impersonation (身份冒用) and privacy risks,
prompting ByteDance to quickly suspend the specific feature. Alongside these ethical challenges,
the technology still faces technical issues like occasional unnatural movement.
Seedance 2.0 marks a significant step in AI video development, highlighting the rapid
progress of the field and China’s rising role in global AI innovation. It underscores the critical
question of how to use such powerful technology safely and responsibly.
28. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The history of Seedance 2.0.
B. The global influence of ByteDance.
C. The immediate popularity of Seedance 2.0.
D. The detailed functions of AI video models.
29. What is Seedance 2.0’s key advantage
A. Its low cost for daily users. B. Its special way of telling stories.
C. Its ability to work without the Internet. D. Its adaptability to all video software.
6
30. Why did ethical debates break out after Seedance 2.0’s launch
A. It produced videos of poor quality.
B. It took the place of human creators.
C. It cost too much for ordinary companies.
D. It could create realistic videos using a photo.
31. What is the author’s attitude toward Seedance 2.0
A. Rational. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent.
D
Linguistics holds a basic premise (前 提 ) at its heart; all languages are equal. Each of the
world’s roughly 7,000 languages represents a unique way of seeing and understanding life, a
natural experiment in human thought. Judgments of a language’s worth come not from its
structure, but from the power and status of its speakers. Yet this profound diversity is collapsing.
Currently, about half of all languages have 10,000 or fewer speakers. The median number of
speakers per language on every continent is below 1,000. These figures signal acute
endangerment.
Languages are not a dying natural death; they are being forced out of existence. A few dozen
killer languages,” like English and Spanish, expand through political, economic, and cultural
conquest, while centuries of imperialism, capitalism, and nation-building squeeze out the rest. In
settler societies like the US and Canada, half of the indigenous (原住民的) languages are already
silent; in homes globally, families abandon mother tongues for dominant languages, losing not just
words but gestures and cultural knowledge.
Why does this loss matter Each language holds unique insights into human communication
— like the expressive clicks of Khoisan languages or the object-subject-verb order of Warao.
More crucially, languages carry poetry, oral histories, environmental wisdom, and lifestyles.
Research confirms that mother-tongue education and language maintenance are vital for mental
and physical well-being, especially for marginalized (被边缘化的) communities.
The organized effort to preserve languages is recent. Inspired by biodiversity and indigenous
rights movements, linguists and activists now race to document languages, creating dictionaries
and recording oral histories. However, linguists cannot “save” languages alone；that power lies
with the communities themselves. Revitalization is a challenging act of hope, often feeling like a
“wonderful madness” — an attempt to revive a worldview nearly lost. The fight for linguistic
7
diversity is ultimately a fight alongside its speakers, requiring real support from the majority world
that seldom notices this silent crisis.
32. What is the function of the first paragraph
A. To list global language statistics.
B. To present a current language crisis.
C. To argue against language superiority.
D. To compare various language structures.
33. What does the term “killer languages” refer to in the text
A. Those no longer spoken by any community.
B. Those passing on through words and gestures.
C. Those thriving at the expense of other languages.
D. Those simplifying complex sound and grammar rules.
34. Why does language loss matter according to paragraph 3
A. It degrades poetry and oral histories.
B. It threatens global environmental safety.
C. It damages well-being of all communities.
D. It hurts the sustainability of some knowledge.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Linguists are documenting dying languages.
B. Language loss results from social and historical forces.
C. Native languages are being replaced by dominant ones.
D. The collapse of language diversity is causing cultural loss.
第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
According to a 2024 attention study by King’s College London, 49% of the UK public are
experiencing “popcorn brain”, a mental state featuring divided attention and wandering thoughts.
36 In response to the findings, psychologist Tina Chummun gives her top tips.
Adopt the mind map method. To manage a distracted mind, write down everything, like
appointments, worries and to - dos, without organizing it initially. Once everything is on paper,
group these into life areas like work or emotional wellbeing. 37 This creates order and
gives your brain permission to concentrate.
8
Every time you feel your thoughts wandering, give yourself three seconds — breathe in,
name what you’re feeling, and redirect your focus. 38 By doing so, you may turn down
the heat when your brain is working overtime.
Minimizing tech is also the key to getting back on track in your daily life. A full digital
withdrawal is unrealistic. 39 Then it could be followed by a five-minute screen time
reward. It teaches your brain to tolerate stillness without feeling punished.
40 At first, you may feel bored, as popcorn brain likes being ‘go go go’ to feel safe.
“Go for a walk without music, or simply stare out your window,” suggests Tina. “Sit in silence
and observe your thoughts. Let your brain breathe. It is sometimes exactly what your nervous
system needs.”
So, are you ready to quiet the mental popcorn and get your focus back
A. Allow space in your day for doing nothing.
B. So, what’s making our brains pop like popcorn
C. Instead, go totally screen-free for 25-30 minutes.
D. Starving distractions and feeding focus is a nice idea.
E. Then ask yourself: what matters now and what can wait
F. They feel their attention less focused and deep thinking rarer.
G. This practice enables you to slow down and manage emotions.

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 was a 22-year-old medical student from Sri Lanka, studying in a quiet university town in
Russia. For as long as I could remember, becoming a doctor had been my greatest aspiration —
one that had driven me to leave my family and home behind, to brave the harsh Russian winters
and endless hours of tiring study. I had always believed that with hard work, I could heal the sick
and make my parents proud.
But my financial situation took a sudden turn for the worse when my family back in Sri Lanka
could no longer send me money. With no savings left and bills piling up, I had no choice but to
pack my bags and return home, abandoning the dream I’d fought so hard for.
On the morning of my departure, I dragged my heavy suitcase to the bus stop, my steps slow
and heavy. The bus to Moscow was crowded and endless traffic jammed the roads for hours. By
the time I finally reached the city center, I could barely breathe from worry — I was already
running late for my flight. I grabbed my suitcase and rushed toward the underground station, my
breath coming in short gasps (喘气) as I weaved through the bustling crowds.
When I finally made it to the airport, my heart sank. The flight gate was shut tight. I
approached the counter, my voice trembling as I begged the staff for help. “You can take the
standby flight 3 hours later, Miss,” the staff lady said, “but you have to pay an extra one hundred
dollars for the rebooking fee.”
I had used up all my savings on the journey to Moscow and had no financial support from
home; I didn’t have that money. For me, it was an impossible amount. I wanted to be strong, to
hold back my tears, but I couldn’t. I broke down and cried uncontrollably right there in front of the
counter, my shoulders shaking as I thought of my wasted efforts and the uncertain future waiting
for me. People began to gather around me. Suddenly, I felt a gentle touch on my shoulder.

Dear Jerry,
How is everything going I’m thrilled to share with you that I received the first prize in our
school’s “Tell Chinese stories in English ” V-log making competition.
My video features the Chinese Knot and in the video I gave a detailed account of its historical
development, its uses in our daily life and its crafting procedures. I picked it up because it is not only a
handicraft but also a symbol of our culture. The Chinese knot shows excellent traditional skills and
carries Chinese people’s good wishes for good luck, happiness and family unity. As a time-honored
craft, it embodies the wisdom of Chinese people by blending aesthetics with practicality, reflecting
their creativity.
This experience filled me with pride in the profound history and culture of China and
strengthened my desire to introduce these incredible traditional crafts to more people.
Yours, Li Hua

读后续写评分细则
一、写作思路
1. 续写思路：
由续写第一段首句 “Through my tears, I noticed a hesitant old man watching me.” 可以预测：续写第一段主
要内容：老人主动上前询问“我”的困境，“我”哽咽着诉说了自己的遭遇，老人心生怜悯，主动帮“我”支
付了一百美元的改签费，“我”记下其联系方式承诺还款。
由第二段首句 “With his contact information in pocket, I watched him disappear in the crowd.” 可以推测：
“我”顺利回国后打多份工攒钱，并最终攒够钱，写信表示感激并寄回钱款。
2. 参考范文
Through my tears, I noticed a hesitant old man watching me. He came over slowly and patted
my arm gently, asking in soft English what was troubling me so deeply. Through choked sobs, I
briefed what had happened to me. He listened quietly, his eyes soft with sympathy, then nodded and
said softly, “Let me take care of this for you.” I hesitated, pride warring with desperation, before
nodding and adding in a shaky voice that I would definitely repay him and needed his contact
information. He smiled faintly and told me his address as I fumbled to note it down.
With his contact information in pocket, I watched him disappear in the crowd. Back in Sri
Lanka, I took on several part-time jobs. Every time I felt tired and wanted to give up, the old man’s
gentle voice echoed in my mind. After three months of hard work, I finally saved enough money. I
wrote a heartfelt letter, detailing how his kindness had pulled me from the abyss of despair, and then
sent the money and letter to his address. The moment I dropped the envelope into the mailbox, I felt
a warm feeling of relief and hope flooded my heart, knowing that honesty and gratitude were the
best way to repay his generosity.

W: Welcome to Speed Computer World. Can I help you with anything
M: I want to buy a new computer, but I don’t really know much about them. Could you give me some
suggestions
W: No problem at all. First off, are you looking for a desktop, a laptop, or a tablet
M: Actually, I have no idea what the differences are
W: Well, a laptop’s portable—you can take it anywhere with you. A desktop, on the other hand, is

better for more demanding tasks, like gaming or heavy editing. As for a tablet, it’s slim and
touchscreen, and you can even hook up a keyboard to use it like a laptop if you want.
M: Um, I don’t think I’ll need to take my computer around with me.
W: Got it. What do you plan to use the computer for mainly
M: Mostly just surfing the Internet, doing video interviews with businessmen, and sending articles and
photos to editors.
W: So mostly home-based work, huh Then a desktop should be totally enough for you. Laptops and
tablets are more convenient for on-the-go use, but they usually don’t have as much storage space as
desktops do.

W: Do you remember that really old house where we had that holiday in Scotland It is for sale
now! Look, it’s completely unchanged.
M: Yes, of course. It was great for playing hide-and-seek. Mom was always complaining there was no
hot water for showers. Dad used to make up scary stories about the people in the old paintings.
W: Yes. What I remember is lying awake at night thinking about the people who had lived there before.
M: I hope the person who buys the house won’t change it. I’d hate to see it lose its characteristics.
W: It’s likely to have a preservation order on it because it’s old. It won’t be turned into a hotel.
M: I expect you’re right. It’s awful to think of all the furniture and paintings being sold off or ending
up in a museum. I hope it remains the same and we can go there on holidays again.

M: Why do you buy so much food We can’t eat all this.
W: I am going to visit Terry—this is all for him.
M: You bought all the food for Terry
W: Yes. He lost his job half a year ago. He has been getting food from the food bank since last month.
M: Get some warm clothes for the kids.Their old ones must be too small for them.
W: I’ve already thought of that! I bought two suits for Laura and Jimmy online. They’ll be sent straight
to his place. And Laura’s been really sick.
M: I can’t imagine how he can handle it all by himself since Mary left him. We need to help him back
to work!
W: I’m browsing the job sites, but haven’t found proper ones as he masters no skills.
M: I will check with Kate about that. She is an excellent human resource manager and has many
friends in that field.
W: Thank you !

M: Good morning! I’m John White, and this is the 9 o’clock news report. I hope everyone is having a
fine Friday morning. It’s getting pretty wet out there, so take an umbrella and stay dry! I’m here
today with Matt Miller, who has completed his 29,000-mile journey in just six weeks, with a total of
180 hours in flight. Beginning in California, he made 25 stops in 14 different countries including
France, Italy, Greece, Egypt and Thailand. His final trip was a 16-hour flight from Hawaii back to
California, just half an hour less than his longest flight from Samoa to Hawaii. Born in South Dakota,
Matt said that as a child he was scared of flying. All of that changed when he received his pilot
license at just 17. After that, he spent a few years planning everything out before beginning his
journey around the world. Matt is here with us today for an interview. Welcome Matt! First, why don’
