第四部分 写作 第一节
Today, I’d like to talk about network and information security. With the rapid development of the Internet, our lives have
become more convenient, but new challenges have also emerged.
Firstly, we must avoid visiting unsafe websites but protect our personal data by accessing authoritative ones. Secondly, we
should always remember to be polite online and use the Internet in a civilized way. And it is also important to check facts before
sharing information, for spreading false news can cause serious harm.
In conclusion, let’s work together to create a safer and more respectful digital world. Thank you.
第二节
Taking a deep breath, Eva and Adam stepped into the boardroom together. Facing the group of funders, Adam kicked off
the presentation with solid data, his voice steady and confident. Just as the atmosphere became a bit dry, Eva smoothly took over,
weaving the touching stories behind the old photographs into her speech. She noticed the funders leaning forward, their
expressions softening as they connected with the faces in the pictures. Adam didn’t interrupt her this time. Instead, he nodded
encouragingly, clicking the slides in perfect time with her words. For the first time, their different strengths weren’t in conflict
— they were working in harmony, blending cold facts with warm hearts.
As they walked out of the room, Joanna, their manager, was waiting for them with a bright smile. She announced excitedly
that the foundation was so impressed by their combined approach that the funding was officially theirs. Eva and Adam looked
at each other, a wave of relief and victory washing over them. Adam turned to Eva, his eyes twinkling, and joked that they had
finally passed the media studies project years ago. Eva laughed, realizing that her “school enemy” had turned into her best partner.
She hadn’t just found a perfect job, but also a friendship she once thought impossible, proving that even the strongest competitor
could make the finest team.
部分详解：第二部分 阅读 第一节
A【语篇导读】说明文，文章介绍了英国四座具有代表性的高层建筑，讲述了它们的建造背景、设计特点、社会影响及
争议，展现了高层建筑如何深刻塑造现代英国。总分结构：开头总述高层建筑是兼具创新、成功与争议的革命性住宅，
深刻影响现代英国；随后分四段依次介绍四座标志性高层建筑的具体情况。
21.A 细节信息题。根据文章第三段“This poorly built tower collapsed just two months...killing 5 people and injuring 17”可
知，罗南角大楼因结构缺陷（无坚固内部框架、接缝填充劣质材料）发生坍塌，造成人员伤亡的悲剧，A 项“其结构
缺陷导致了一场悲剧性事故”符合原文；B 项“其建筑以可持续材料为特色”、C 项“其设计针对富人的豪华住房”、
D 项“其失败彻底解决了类似缺陷”均与原文不符。
22.A 细节信息题。根据文章第二段“Kensal House... it was a pioneering model that inspired thousands of estates later”和
第四段“Trellick Tower... set high standards for public housing”可知，肯萨尔大楼是开创性的典范，特雷利克塔是建筑杰
作、为公共住房树立了高标准，二者的共同点是都成为了理想范例，A 项符合；B 项“它们提供私人花园”与文中信
息不符；C 项“它们用顶级材料建造”仅特雷利克塔提及；D 项“它们受严格管理”仅肯萨尔大楼提及。
23.C 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Cascades... it was the first private luxury high-rise here... It created a clear contradiction:
social housing high-rises are seen as signs of poverty, while new luxury ones stand for success”可知，此前英国高层建筑多
为面向工薪阶层的社会住房，而卡斯卡德大楼是首个私人豪华高层建筑，反映出英国高层建筑从公共住房向私人豪华
住房的转变，C 项符合；A 项“后现代设计取代了现代主义设计”、D 项“后现代主义成为主流设计风格”原文未提及；
B 项“豪华设施成为高层建筑的标准”过于绝对，原文仅说卡斯卡德大楼有泳池和健身房，并非所有高层建筑。
B【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文，讲述了全科医生普娜姆·克里尚源于对他人的关怀之心的职业选择，也描述了她侦探
般乐趣的日常工作和因个人经历而致力于向儿童普及急救知识的信念。
24.A。推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Dr. Punam Krishan is a general practitioner—a GP—one of the doctors who stand on
the front line of medicine.(普娜姆·克里尚医生是一名全科医生，奋斗在医疗一线。)”以及“Beyond her work in clinics,
Dr. Krishan is also a familiar face on television and the author of several books...(除了诊所的工作，她还活跃在电视荧幕上，
并且是多本书的作者……)”可知，普娜姆·克里尚医生身兼数职，有多重身份。因此，选项 A 最符合第一段所传递的
信息。故选 A。
25.D。细节理解题。根据第二段的描述：“She often noticed when someone looked unwell and felt driven to ask why. That
quiet curiosity led her deeper into science...”可知，普娜姆·克里尚深入科学的初衷源于对观察到的现象的好奇——看到
别人不舒服时，她迫切想探究背后的原因。结合上下文，D 选项“为她观察到的现象寻找解释”是对原文最合理的解
读。故选 D。
1 / 4
{#{QQABQQQpwwCwgJYACI7bEwEYCgiYsJMTLIgOARAUKAQCCRNAFAA=}#}
26.A。推理判断题。根据第三段克里尚医生对 GP 工作的描述“one of the most incredible jobs”“With only ten minutes
per patient, she must listen closely, read between the lines, and uncover the truth behind their symptoms.”以及“finding the
right answer brings a sense of excitement that never fades”可知，这份工作繁忙但是“不可思议”且能带来“永不消退的
兴奋感”。因此 A 选项“Fast-paced but fulfilling(节奏快但令人满意的)”最贴合。B 选项中“stable(稳定的)”未体现；
C 选项中“well-paid(薪水高的)”未体现；D 选项中“promising(有前途的)”也并未体现。故选 A。
27.B。推理判断题。最后一段的核心信息是：克里尚医生因祖父去世的遗憾，形成了“识别疾病是一项救命技能”的
坚定信念，并为此向儿童传授急救知识，以便在紧急情况下采取行动，强调了“在问题发生前就做好准备”的预防思
想，B 选项“Fix the roof before it rains.(未雨绸缪。)”正符合此意。A 选项（亡羊补牢）强调事后补救；C 选项（时不
我待)强调珍惜时间；D 选项（机会青睐有准备的人）强调准备以抓住机遇。故选 B。
C【语篇导读】本文是一篇科普类说明文，介绍了一项关于莱茵河垃圾污染的最新研究。文章揭示了莱茵河已成为向北
海输送大量垃圾的“传送带”，重点说明了革命性的新研究方法如何更准确地监测垃圾量，分析了垃圾的主要来源（个
人消费），并最终呼吁采取行动应对污染。
28.C 细节理解题。根据原文第一段最后一句“...this historic river now acts as a massive conveyor belt for rubbish, carrying
between 3,000 and 4,700 tons of large garbage into the North Sea every single year.”可知，研究的主要发现是莱茵河成为了
大量垃圾的输送带。选项 A（其历史重要地位）和 D（失去生态水道作用）并非该研究的核心新发现；选项 B（每年
流入北海）是地理事实，并非这次新研究揭示的问题。
29.D 细节理解题。根据原文第二段最后两句“The data showed enormous changes...accounting for why short-term
observations failed to get the full picture.”可知，旧方法（短期观测）失败的原因在于未能捕捉到垃圾量在短期内的巨大
波动。选项 A（未涉及当地志愿者）是新旧方法都可能存在的问题，但非原文指出的旧方法失败的主因；选项 B（缺
少先进工具的记录数据）和 C（仅从水面收集水）并非文中描述的旧方法（brief visual surveys）的确切特点。
30.C 细节理解题。根据原文第三段第三句“More importantly, over 56% of all rubbish was linked directly to the choices of
individual consumers...”可知，超过 56%的垃圾来源于个人消费。选项 A（烟花是最污染的活动）错误，文中说烟花垃
圾占 10.7%，并非“最”；选项 B（吸烟对环境几乎没有影响）错误，烟草相关垃圾占 6.5%；选项 D（塑料占重量的绝
大部分）错误，文中指出塑料仅占总重量的 15%。
31.B 写作意图题。通读全文可知，文章首先揭露了莱茵河严重的垃圾污染问题（第一段），接着介绍了揭示该问题的
新研究方法（第二段），然后分析了垃圾来源（第三段），最后在结尾段强调这是“一个紧迫的行动呼吁”（an urgent call
to address...）。因此，文章的主要目的是强调污染问题并敦促采取行动。选项 A（分析河流垃圾来源）和 C 解释清理
垃圾的新方法）是部分内容，非最终目的；选项 D（赞扬志愿者的项目）是细节，非全文主旨。
D【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，探讨了视频营销策略。研究发现，消费者更信任包含真人的视频，AI 生成的内容
可能会降低品牌信任度。因此，营销专家主张平衡技术与人性，让 AI 辅助而非取代真人，从而保持品牌真实感并建立
信任。
32. A 细节理解题。根据第一段“Nearly 78% of consumers trust videos with real people”以及“people still want to see other
people”可知，消费者依然信任并希望看到视频中有真人出现。由此可知，建立信任最有效的视频营销策略是制作以真
实人物为特色的视频。故选 A。
33. C 细节理解题。根据第三段“This trust loss appears regardless of whether audiences correctly identify AI content.”以及
“Perception alone affects how they view the brand.”可知，无论观众是否正确识别出 AI 内容，只要感知到内容是 AI 生
成的，信任缺失就会发生。故选 C。
34. B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“AI can enhance storytelling as long as the brand still keeps a human touch. The key is
balance: Technology should support the message, not replace the genuine voice behind it.”可知，营销专业人士认为 AI 应该
作为辅助工具来增强叙事效果或支持信息传达，而不是替代人类或直接控制品牌声音。故选 B。
35. D 主旨大意题。文章开头指出尽管 AI 视频工具普及，但人们仍偏爱真人视频以建立信任; 中间部分论述了 AI 内
容可能会导致信任缺失; 最后一段指出营销专业人士希望在利用 AI 技术提高效率的同时，保留人文关怀，强调技术应
支持而非替代人类。因此，文章主要讨论了在视频制作中如何在技术(AI)和人性(真人)之间取得平衡。由此可推知，D
项最适合作文章标题。故选 D。
第二节【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了求职信（cover letter）的重要性、类型及写作建议，强调其能
补充简历信息、展示个人优势，并建议根据职位定制内容，语言简洁明了。
36.G。前句给出 cover letter 的定义：提供“额外信息”。G 项用 This 回指 information，立即点明“这些额外信息应是
技能与经历”，完成“定义→内容”的顺承，同时引出下文“因此它很重要”的评价。故选 G 项。
37.C。后文用“On the one hand”和“On the other hand”并列两大好处，是典型的“总—分”结构。C 项(There are two
key reasons for its importance.)充当总起句，概括“两大原因的重要性”，与后文形成清晰对应。故选 C 项。
38.E。前句强调“不同公司、不同目标，内容随之变化”，需要一句总结“没有固定模板”。E 项用 That's to say 作同义
解释，顺承前文，逻辑最紧密。故选 E 项。
39.D。前文刚介绍 cover letter of interest 是“写给想去的公司”，紧接着需要指出它“不针对具体职位”。D 项用 However
转折，并引出下句“Instead, it inquires about...”，代词 it 指代明确，衔接最顺。故选 D 项。
2 / 4
{#{QQABQQQpwwCwgJYACI7bEwEYCgiYsJMTLIgOARAUKAQCCRNAFAA=}#}
40.B。后文提到“沟通要简洁，别用复杂词”。B 项“此外，尽量简化你的信件”先给出“简化”总建议，后文再解释
原因，形成“先总后分”的推荐顺序，最为贴切。故选 B 项。
第三部分 语言运用 第一节 语篇主题：艺术家 Lito在落叶上雕刻，疗愈自己并分享快乐。
41. B。根据 “transforms... into delicate artworks” 可知，艺术家是将普通的落叶变成精致艺术品，ordinary（普通的）
符合；decorative（装饰性的）、symbolic（象征性的）、broken（破损的）均不符合“落叶”的属性。
42. D。后文 “青蛙撑伞、动物欢跳、海浪” 是其作品中的场景，scenes（场景）符合；reviews（评论）、secrets（秘
密）、challenges（挑战）均与语境无关。
43. A。句意为“他的作品获得了国际认可”，gain recognition（获得认可）为固定搭配；invitation（邀请）、explanation
（解释）、qualification（资格）均不符。
44. C。根据后文他患有注意力缺陷障碍，而雕刻帮助他改善状况，可知雕刻是他平静和专注的源泉，focus（专注）符
合；confusion（困惑）、anxiety（焦虑）、doubt（怀疑）均为负面情绪，与语境相反。
45. B。患有注意力缺陷障碍让他意识到自己可能做事与众不同，differently（不同地）符合；officially（正式地）、seriously
（认真地）、casually（随意地）均无原文依据。
46. D。雕刻是细致的慢过程，与 “slow” 并列，detailed（细致的）符合；similar（相似的）、occasional（偶尔的）、
natural（自然的）均不贴合雕刻的特点。
47. C。句意为“细致的雕刻过程帮助他应对自己的状况（注意力缺陷障碍）”，condition（状况）符合；tradition（传统）、
reward（奖励）、promise（承诺）均不符。
48. B。句意为“通过艺术，他不仅应对了自己的困境，还希望给他人带来快乐”，approach（应对，处理；靠近）符合；
identify（识别）、remove（去除，移开）、record（记录）均不符。
49. A。句意为“在视频中，Lito 展示了他创作的过程”，show（展示、显示）符合；face（面对）、review（回顾）、predict

50. C。句意为“他首先给叶子涂抹化学物质防止干枯”，apply...with...（给…涂抹…）为固定搭配；select（选择）、deliver
（递送）、measure（测量）均不符。
51. D。“涂抹化学物质” 之后接着是画设计图、雕刻，followed by（接着，随后）为固定用法；delayed（推迟）、misled

55. B。句意为“这是我未来前行的动力”，driving force（动力）为固定搭配；limiting（限制的）、opposing（反对的）、
disturbing（令人不安的）均不符。
第二节 语篇主题：马年春晚“合肥时间”压轴登场，“徽风皖韵”惊艳亮相。
56. a 此处表示“一个国家科教中心”，是泛指，且“national”以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词 a。
57. shared 此处为过去分词作后置定语，修饰“The news”，表示“在社交媒体上被迅速传播的消息”，故用 shared。
58. approval 形容词“widespread”后应接名词，“approve”的名词形式是 approval，意为“认可、赞同”。
59. have been made “Over the past decade”是现在完成时标志，主语“significant technological breakthroughs”为复数且与动
词 make 为被动关系，故用 have been made。
60. which 此处是非限制性定语从句，指代前面整个句子的内容，在从句中作主语，故用 which。
61. that 此句为强调句型“It is...that...”，被强调的部分是“due to its blend of innovation and cultural heritage”，故用 that。
62. expectations 物主代词“their”后应接名词，“expect”名词形式是“expectation”，此处表示“期望”，常用复数 expectations。
63. on 固定搭配“concentrate on”意为“集中精力于、专注于”，故用 on。
64. deserves 句子描述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，主语“Hefei”为单数，故用 deserves。

听力录音稿
(Text 1) W: The guests are leaving for New York today. We need someone to get them to the airport on time.
M: I’d be happy to, but my car is under repair now.
W: In that case, I have to call a taxi.
(Text 2) W: Would you like some drink
M: Yes, a glass of orange juice. Could I have a few cookies with that
W: Of course. I’ll be back to take your order in a minute.
(Text 3) M: I’m planning on changing jobs.
3 / 4
{#{QQABQQQpwwCwgJYACI7bEwEYCgiYsJMTLIgOARAUKAQCCRNAFAA=}#}
W: Really Why
M: This one is too far away from my family and my mother hasn’t been well recently.
W: Oh! I was in the same situation with my father when I was working in Chicago.
(Text 4) W: Are you going to join us for lunch
M: I’m afraid not. I’m up to my neck in work. I have to order a takeout and eat at my desk.
(Text 5) M: Do I look OK in this pair
W: I think you should put on another color, the brown one. Yeah, they look great on your feet.
M: And this color matches my trousers perfectly.
(Text 6) M: Teresa, I got a call from a client saying that the contract I asked you to mail last week never reached him.
W: The one for the Mercer Building
M: Yeah, that’s the one. Is there a way to check if the Postal Service delivered it
W: Sure, I still have the receipt with the tracking number on it. Let me pull up the record. Hmm... It looks like it got there on
Monday morning. Someone named John Gruban signed for it.
M: Really At least we know it arrived. I’ll get back to the client now who is very worried.
(Text 7) W: Hello. My name is Margaret. My friend Janet suggested I join your telephone service plan.
M: May I know which plan you are referring to
W: I hope it provides voice mailbox service. Sometimes I can’t answer the phone when I’m giving a lecture.
M: All the five plans in our price list provide it.
W: Really How about the mobile traffic
M: Do you mean Plan C It provides 10GB each month.
W: That’s not enough. I need 20GB. But $10 every month is attractive. By the way, I also want the plan to have long-distance
call service, since my sister lives in Canada.
M: I’m afraid you have to buy an extra service for long-distance calls. That’s $5 per month.
W: OK. Then just help me apply for Plan C and the long-distance call service you were talking about.
(Text 8) M: So when did you go to Tanzania
W: Last year, in March. They asked me to go there for the start of construction.
M: And how long did you stay there
W: Four months. I came back when the school had just been built. Besides, we finished it two months early and saved $10,000
on construction costs.
M: That’s great. So what other projects have you worked on
W: I’ve done a lot of construction projects, but I’ve also helped to set up a few training programs. M: And have you ever led a
team
W: No, not yet, but I’ve learnt a lot about managing people. I know I’m ready to do this job.
M: Why did you decide to work in this field
W: My mother lived in Africa when she was a child. She’s often talked to me about her life there. I wanted to discover it for
myself.
(Text 9) W: So Richard, tell us about what got you started as an independent film maker.
M: From an early age, I enjoyed watching films and was fascinated by directing and photography, but it never occurred to me
that I could do it myself until one day I picked up my father’s camera and started recording what was happening around me
every day. I then worked at a local video shop that had a section of unclassifiable films. These films made up their own rules
and always left me feeling as if something inside me had changed. They also proved that the medium of film could change
someone’s views of the world, and that made me more determined to pursue film making.
W: And yet you claim that you don’t make art films.
M: Even though I want to make this type of film, it is easy to produce a bad one. More importantly, I just want to express my
message through understandable films, using pictures and music, but not some abstract art concepts. By the way, I am not
interested in art films that follow a predictable pattern.
(Text 10)
W: Ladies and gentlemen, at the moment, all I want to do is thank our performers for the pleasure they’ve given us this evening.
And of course I must express our thanks to those who’ve worked behind the scenes, especially our producer. But most of all
I want to say “thank you” to all of you for coming here this evening and supporting this event, especially in such weather. I
think I perhaps should take this chance to make an apology to those sitting in the back rows. We’ve made some repair to the
roof, but unfortunately the wet tonight is unexpectedly heavy, and we’re thankful to you for your understanding and cheerful
good humor. We had hoped that the repairs would be enough. But we were recently told that the whole roof would have to
be replaced. We were sad to learn the news because it’s only five years since we replaced the roof of the church itself. And
so we shall be having another concert soon, I hope. Finally, I want to tell you the good news -- it is bright and a little windy
tomorrow. And I wish all of you would have a nice and relaxed day. You can go to the park or theater, etc.

A
How High-Rises Shaped Modern Britain
Eyesores and dangerously unsafe Or ideal housing for the working classes Holly Smith tells the stories
behind some of the UK’s most revolutionary homes—buildings that have deeply shaped modern Britain,
mixing novelty, success and painful debate.
Kensal House (1936, west London)
Co-designed by Maxwell Fry and Elizabeth Denby, it was intended for working-class families between
the two World Wars, when modernist homes for the rich were already popular. It offered bright, spacious flats
with private balconies, labour-saving kitchens and public gardens. Managed by residents with strict rules, it
was a pioneering model that inspired thousands of estates later—completely distinct from the dark, crowded
and poor areas people had to live in before.
Ronan Point (1968, east London)
This poorly built tower collapsed just two months after opening: a small gas leak on the 18th floor
2 / 8
{#{QQABQQQpwwCwgJYACI7bEwEYCgiYsJMTLIgOARAUKAQCCRNAFAA=}#}
destroyed a whole wing, killing 5 people and injuring 17. Its concrete panels were piled up without a strong
internal frame, and its joints were even filled with old cement (水泥) bags and wrinkled newspapers. The
public shock exposed widespread structural faults in high-rises, though hundreds of such blocks still lack
proper strengthening today.
Trellick Tower (1972, west London)
In sharp contrast, this high-rise is a masterpiece by Hungarian architect Ern Goldfinger. It used top
materials like marble lobbies and stained glass, as the designer believed high-rises could "free the ground for
gardens" and set high standards for public housing—turning homes from just simple shelters into spaces
where people could express their lives fully.
Cascades (1988, east London)
This flashy postmodern tower dominates the Thames, mixing ocean liner elegance and old storehouse
solidity while taking inspiration from local marine history. Nicknamed "Yuppie Towers," it was the first
private luxury high-rise here, with a pool and a gym. It created a clear contradiction: social housing high-
rises are seen as signs of poverty, while new luxury ones stand for success.
21. What can we learn about Ronan Point from the text
A. Its structural faults led to a tragic accident. B. Its construction featured sustainable materials.
C. Its design targeted luxury housing for the rich. D. Its failure helped completely address similar faults.
22. What do Kensal House and Trellick Tower have in common
A. They served as ideal examples. B. They provided private gardens.
C. They were built with top materials. D. They were under strict management.

Dr. Punam Krishan is a general practitioner—a GP—one of the doctors who stand on the front line of
medicine. GPs treat everyday illnesses, listen carefully to patients’ concerns, and decide when special medical
care is needed. Beyond her work in clinics, Dr. Krishan is also a familiar face on television and the author of
several books, including How to Be a Doctor and Other Life-Saving Jobs, You and Your Body, and her latest
release, The Superhero’s First Aid Manual.
Her journey into medicine began with caring for others. “It started off with me wanting to help people
understand themselves better,” she once explained. She often noticed when someone looked unwell and felt
driven to ask why. That quiet curiosity led her deeper into science, even when it was challenging, and
eventually toward a life dedicated to healing others.
To Dr. Krishan, being a GP is “one of the most incredible jobs in the world”. Every day, she meets
people from different backgrounds and at different stages of life. With only ten minutes per patient, she must
listen closely, read between the lines, and uncover the truth behind their symptoms. “It makes me feel a bit
like a detective,” she said. Patients may arrive with one problem or many, and finding the right answer brings
a sense of excitement that never fades. She describes her role as being “a bit of a best friend to people”.
Her newest book was shaped by a deeply personal loss. When she was a child, her grandfather died, and
for years she worried she had missed signs that he was unwell. That experience stayed with her and formed
a powerful belief: recognizing illness can be a life-saving skill, even for children. Through her book, she
teaches young readers to recognize emergencies such as allergic reactions or heart attacks, and to take simple

but vital steps—staying calm, calling 999, or placing someone in the recovery position. For Dr. Krishan,
heroism begins with care, courage, and knowledge. “Children should know the basics of how to be a
superhero in that moment,” she added.
24. What can we learn about Dr. Krishan from the first paragraph
A. She takes on multiple roles. B. She excels in detailed work.
C. She takes pleasure in reading. D. She aims for public recognition.
25. Why did Dr. Krishan dive into science

26. How does Dr. Krishan find her work as a GP
A. Fast-paced but satisfying. B. Stressful but stable.
C. Challenging but well-paid. D. Exhausting but promising.
27. What does Dr. Krishan’s experience indicate according to the last paragraph

For centuries, the Rhine River has been celebrated as the lifeline of Europe, a vital waterway for
commerce, culture, and ecology. However, a study published in January 2026 reveals a troubling modern
reality: this historic river now acts as a massive conveyor belt for rubbish, carrying between 3,000 and 4,700
tons of large garbage into the North Sea every single year.
How could such a vast amount of waste have been missed The answer lies in a revolutionary new
research method. For an entire year, researchers worked with local citizen scientists to operate a special
floating device called a litter trap. This device filtered water from the surface down to 80 centimeters deep.
Unlike older methods that relied on brief visual surveys, this long-term physical collection recorded the true,
disorganized flow of garbage. The data showed enormous changes, with the amount of rubbish collected in
a two-week period varying wildly from as few as 67 pieces to over 2,700, accounting for why short-term
observations failed to get the full picture.
The collected garbage tells a clear story about its origins. Detailed analysis showed that while plastic
items made up about 70% of all pieces, they were mostly lightweight, only 15% of the total weight. More
importantly, over 56% of all rubbish was linked directly to the choices of individual consumers, with items
like food wrappers and beverage bottles being most common. Specific activities also left their mark, with
litter from fireworks making up 10.7% of the total and tobacco-related waste like cigarette butts contributing
another 6.5%.
This year-long project, powered in part by dedicated volunteers, proves that long-term, hands-on
monitoring is essential to measure environmental challenges accurately. It provides a powerful model for
how communities and scientists can work together to gather the evidence needed for action. The Rhine’s
story is no longer just about its scenic beauty or economic importance; it is an urgent call to address the tide
of waste our modern lifestyle creates, before it all washes out to sea.
28. What is the main finding of the 2026 study on the Rhine River
A. It has an important status in history. B. It flows into the North Sea every year.
C. It becomes a carrier of massive rubbish. D. It loses the role as a waterway for ecology.
29. Which of the following contributed to old methods’ failure
4 / 8
{#{QQABQQQpwwCwgJYACI7bEwEYCgiYsJMTLIgOARAUKAQCCRNAFAA=}#}
A. Not involving local volunteers. B. Lacking recorded data of advanced tools.
C. Only collecting water from the surface. D. Missing dramatic changes in short surveys.
30. What can we learn from the figures in paragraph 3
A. Fireworks were the most polluted activity. B. Smoking had little effect on the environment.
C. Most rubbish came from personal consumption. D. Plastics made up most of the weight.
31. What is the primary purpose of the passage
A. To analyse origins of river garbage. B. To emphasize pollution and urge action.
C. To explain a new method to clear rubbish. D. To praise the project led by volunteers.
D
Brands have spent years perfecting video marketing strategies. Nearly 78% of consumers trust videos
with real people, according to research from video creation platform Animoto. That preference holds as AI
video tools flood the market and brands race to create more content faster. The finding comes from Animoto’s
State of Video 2026 report, based on a survey of 460 American consumers and marketers. As AI generates
full videos from text prompts (提示), the truth remains: People still want to see other people.
The preference for human faces isn’t just about aesthetics (美学). More than 82% of consumers report
watching videos that they believe were AI-generated, and among that group, 36% say it lowers their trust in
the brand behind it. This creates a problem for marketers. Even if AI tools can help produce videos faster, the
resulting content may raise doubt that destroys the entire purpose of making the video in the first place.
Separate research cited in the report found that 88% of consumers consider brand trust as important as
price and quality when making purchases. Three-quarters of US adults think it’s extremely or very important
to know whether images, videos, or text were created by AI or people. This trust loss appears regardless of
whether audiences correctly identify AI content. The survey showed that consumers believe they can spot
AI-generated videos based on “an entire set of signals” and contextual mismatches, according to the report
author Olga Mirkovic. Whether they’re right doesn’t matter. Awareness alone affects how they view the brand.
Surveyed marketing professionals aren’t trying to remove humans from their videos. Despite pressure
to produce more content faster, marketers still want control over which footage to use, how to present their
brand voice, and when to put themselves on camera. Roya Safarian, a survey respondent, explained the
balance: “AI can enhance storytelling as long as the brand still keeps a human touch. The key is balance;
Technology should support the message, not replace the genuine voice behind it.”
32. What is the most effective trust-building video marketing strategy
A. Making videos featuring real people. B. Using AI to generate videos quickly.
C. Updating video production fashion. D. Producing true video content faster.
33. In what circumstances does the trust loss occur
A. When video aesthetics are poor. B. When video production speeds up.
C. When AI content is sensed. D. When brand trust is compared to price.
34. What do marketing professionals suggest AI should be used for in video-making
A. Generating videos automatically. B. Aiding in content creation as a tool.
C. Controlling brand voice directly. D. Replacing human presenters entirely.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Contrasting AI and Human-made Videos B. Building Consumer Trust with AI Videos
C. Facing Trust Crisis in AI-generated Videos D. Balancing Technology and Humanity in Videos

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。
A cover letter, also known as an application letter, is a document you send with your resume (简历) that
provides some additional information. 36 Frankly, a cover letter is essential.
37 On the one hand, such a letter can explain details in your resume in more depth and is the
first impression a hiring manager has of you. On the other hand, employers use cover letters to narrow down
the applicant pool and choose the group of candidates they want to interview.
The type of letter you write should depend on the requirements of each different company or employer.
And the information that is included in a cover letter will vary depending on the goals and purposes of your
application. 38
The most common types of cover letter we see are the application cover letter and the cover letter of
interest. The former is generally written in response to a vacancy that’s posted on a company’s website. The
latter is written by a job seeker and addressed to a company where he or she would like to work. 39
Instead, it inquires about open positions in general.
When composing a cover letter, you’d better include the hiring manager’s name. This gives your letter
a proper greeting. 40 Communicate clearly and briefly. Using complex words and sentences would
fail to convey your intentions to the company. After you’ve written the letter, go over it to ensure there are
no errors.
A. Be specific when needed.
B. Besides, try to simplify your letter.
C. There are two key reasons for its importance.
D. However, it is not aimed at a specific role or vacancy.
E. That’s to say, there is no set pattern for a cover letter.
F. A standard cover letter can be used with minor changes.
G. This should be about skills and experience related to the job you’re applying for.

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。
Eva started her new job at a small charity called “Caring for Carers.” While checking the shared
campaign folder, a name caught her eye: Adam Turner.
Memories suddenly flooded back. Adam had been her major opponent at school — a boy who always
carried a leather briefcase while everyone else had backpacks. He was extremely talented at maths, while
Eva excelled in English and history. They once failed a group project because they spent all their time arguing,
unable to combine his logic with her creativity.
When the office door opened, a tall, handsome man walked in. It was Adam. He smiled broadly, “You
do remember! Conker!” he teased, using her old nickname. Eva glared, but Adam quickly turned professional.
“The Simpson Foundation is offering funding. If we make a convincing speech next Friday, they’ll pay for
the whole campaign.”
As they worked together, the old disagreement remained. Adam was buried in precise budgets, while
Eva insisted on using “creative” ideas to move the funders. Eva complained that he was too obsessed with
figures, while Adam responded that her ideas were too impractical. They seemed to be back in their school
days, fighting over every detail.
However, as the deadline approached, their relationship began to shift. Eva made an effort to understand
his financial tables, and Adam started to appreciate the emotional power of Eva’s storytelling. One afternoon,
they discovered some old black-and-white photos of people the charity had helped. Eva suggested using these
to tell real stories, and Adam’s eyes lit up. He realized he could back those stories with data to prove their
impact.
The day of the presentation finally arrived, which was also the final day of Eva’s trial period. Standing
outside the boardroom, Eva felt her heart pounding. This wasn’t just about the funding; it was about whether
she and her old opponent could finally succeed as a team.
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。
Taking a deep breath, Eva and Adam stepped into the boardroom together. _____________________
