第一节（满分 15分）【答案】
One possible version:
From what Gorky said, I believe true beauty springs from labor and human wisdom. Last summer, I joined a
community garden project. At first, I doubted my ability to grow anything. Yet as I dug soil, planted seeds, and
watered daily, I witnessed tiny sprouts pushing through earth. My rough hands and sunburned skin felt like badges
of honor when we finally harvested fresh tomatoes. That moment taught me: labor changes both land and spirit.
The sweetness of those tomatoes came not just from sunshine, but from patience and effort.
第二节续写作文【答案】
That night, Leo lay in the dark, the secret weighing heavily on him. The moonlight cast shadows that seemed
to mimic the web of cracks on the lens. He imagined Baron’s disappointed face, a vision far worse than any
scolding. Finally, just before dawn, he rose with a heavy heart and shuffled to his brother’s room. Gently shaking
him awake, Leo confessed in a choked whisper, “I broke the telescope… I tried to track a satellite.” In the pale
morning light, he braced himself. Baron was silent for a long moment, then sat up and sighed, placing a hand on
Leo’s shoulder. “I already knew,” he said softly. “The tripod was out of place. I was waiting for you to tell me.”
The forgiveness in his voice was as clear and calming as the dawn itself.
“We have to buy parts to fix it,” said Baron. Together, they ordered the precise replacement lens. When it
arrived, the real work began. Evenings were spent at the workbench, Baron patiently guiding Leo’s uncertain hands
through the delicate disassembly. They fumbled with tiny screws, consulted manuals, and recalibrated (校准) the
alignment over and over. After days of meticulous effort, the final screw was secured. They shared a look — a
weary but triumphant smile that needed no words. That very night, they carried the restored telescope outside.
When Baron carefully aimed it skyward and Leo peered through the eyepiece, the majestic rings of stars
shimmered into view, more brilliant than ever, a silent testament to their shared effort and repaired trust.

office.
M: Ah, I see. So what do you think of the Cambridge tour so far
W: Before this tour, all I knew about Cambridge was that it’s home to some of the world’s top universities
and intellectuals. But this tour really takes me through the history of Cambridge, from the city’s beginnings
to its current position as a world-famous seat of learning and culture. That’s quite attractive to me.

Text 10 灾后捐书项目
W: On a sunny Saturday in late February, Rohan unpacked 10 boxes of children’s books with his family.
Rohan, 13, was giving them away. It was part of a charity program he started called Reading Among Ruins,
which was part of a larger effort — Together We Rebuild.
Just weeks earlier, wildfires had torn through Los Angeles. More than 16,000 structures were destroyed,
including Rohan’s home as well as his beloved book collection. “I was heartbroken,” he said. ” It made me
wonder how other kids felt about losing their books.” That question pushed Rohan to take action. “I wanted
to help,” he said. And he went all out to get books to kids who were affected by the fires.
The program gave away more than 1,000 books to kids in the first month. Veeren Mehra was one of them. He
said he learned a powerful lesson: “If you are in a tough situation, people will be there for you.”沈阳市回民中学 2024级高二下学期 4月月考

Army ants are very aggressive,” says Isabella Muratore at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. But what’s
even more remarkable about them is their architectural expertise. Muratore has been studying how army ants build
bridges by linking their bodies, which could give scientists insights into control-ling swarms (一大群) of robots.
Commonly found in Central America, South America and Africa, the ants search forest floors in long foraging
(觅食) lines. When they encounter obstacles — like a gap between leaves or branches — they build a bridge,
linking themselves together like a group of monkeys. “The workers will string themselves across that gap, and then
other workers will walk on top of them,” Muratore said, “Basically, they create shortcuts to make things easier for
the other ants or just to allow them to cross something that they otherwise couldn’t.” But building bridges comes at
a cost to the group: the ants occupied with supporting the bridge aren’t available to hunt. Despite individually
having small brains, the ants collectively weigh the costs and benefits of a bridge, Muratore said. She found that the
ants build bridges where they get the greatest benefit for the smallest number of bodies.
“Just like people, we don’t just build one bridge, we have to decide: “How is this whole road going to look
like across many different obstacles ” says David Hu, a professor of engineering at the Georgia Institute of
Technology. He says this type of research is shedding new light on the collective intelligence of army ants. He
compares the individual ants to “neurons (神经元) in a big moving brain”, with no singular ant deciding where to
build bridges.
The collective decision-making of ants also has implications for human technology. Engineers have already
applied swarm behaviors learned from ant research to building algorithms (算法) for self-assembling (自组装的)
robots. “It was the grand challenge of robotics for a long time to take a bucket of robot parts and dump it out and
have that robot be able to piece itself together and solve sort of bigger problems,” Hu said. “Ants are kind of
existence proof that such a robot would actually be able to survive and have a lot of interesting problems to solve in
the real world. Ants are really capable of solving these things with really, really little brainpower.”
24. Why does Muratore study army ants’ act of bridge-building
A. To design advanced robots. B. To learn about controlling robots.
C. To know their architectural skills. D. To understand their behavioral pattern.
25. What can be inferred about the ants’ building a bridge
A. It makes foraging more efficient.
B. It depends on the strongest ants’ efforts.
C. Its cost outweighs its benefits.
D. Its building process is time-consuming.
26. What does the underlined phrase “shedding new light on” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Facilitating. B. Challenging. C. Clarifying. D. Tracking.
27. What does Hu intend to explain in the last paragraph
A. The need to learn from army ants.
B. The challenges in designing robots.
C. The problems to be addressed by future robots.
D. The comparison between ants and robots.
C
A team of engineers at the University of California, San Diego, has developed a new type of tactile sensor that
could revolutionize how robots interact with their environment. Unlike traditional sensors that simply detect
pressure, this innovative device can distinguish between different materials such as cotton, wool, and even human
skin.
The sensor, which mimics the human fingertip, uses a combination of thermal and mechanical sensing. It
contains a heating element and a temperature sensor. When the sensor touches a material, it measures how quickly
heat is conducted away — a property that varies between substances. Simultaneously, it records the surface
texture through tiny vibrations. By combining these two data streams, the sensor can identify materials with over
95% accuracy.
“What makes our sensor unique is that it processes information similarly to the human nervous system,” said
Dr. James Chen, the lead researcher. “This allows robots to make split-second decisions about how to handle
objects — whether to grip a fragile silk scarf gently or apply more force to a rough wooden surface.”
Potential applications range from advanced prosthetics that could restore realistic touch to amputees, to
industrial robots capable of sorting recyclables more efficiently. However, challenges remain. The current
prototype is still relatively bulky and expensive for mass production. The team is now working on miniaturizing the
components while maintaining sensitivity.
28. What is the main advantage of the new tactile sensor over traditional ones
A. It is much cheaper to produce.
B. It can detect both heat and pressure.
C. It identifies materials rather than just pressure.
D. It works faster than the human nervous system.
29. How does the sensor identify different materials
A. By analyzing their chemical composition.
B. By measuring heat conduction and surface texture.
C. By recording the color and shape of objects.
D. By using a built-in camera to scan materials.
30. The phrase “split-second decisions” in paragraph 3 indicates that the sensor ______
A. needs a long time to process data B. is capable of making quick judgments
C. often makes wrong decisions D. requires additional time to warm up
31. What is the main challenge for the future application of this sensor
A. Its accuracy is not high enough.
B. It can only be used on soft materials.
C. It is too large and costly for wide use.
D. It cannot distinguish between similar materials.
D
A recent survey by the National Education Association reveals a troubling trend: American teenagers are
reading for pleasure at the lowest levels in three decades. Only 37% of 13-year-olds report reading for fun daily, a
sharp decline from 54% in 2012. Educators warn that this shift has profound implications beyond literacy.
The decline coincides with the explosion of digital entertainment. Social media platforms, streaming services,
and mobile games now compete fiercely for young people’s attention. “Reading requires sustained focus and
imagination,” observes Dr. Linda Martinez, a child psychologist. “Digital content often provides quick, passive
gratification. Over time, the brain’s neural pathways adapt to shorter attention spans, making it harder to engage
with complex texts.”
Yet the problem is not purely technological. Critics point to standardized testing pressures that have narrowed
curricula. Many schools have reduced time for independent reading, replacing it with test preparation drills. “We’re
teaching students how to analyze excerpts but not nurturing a love for stories,” says high school librarian Mark
Williams. “Reading becomes a chore rather than a choice.”
The consequences may extend beyond academic performance. Studies show that regular fiction readers
develop stronger empathy, as literature allows them to inhabit different perspectives. A decline in reading could
therefore affect emotional intelligence and civic engagement. Some communities are fighting back through
initiatives like “book clubs for boys” and partnerships with local authors, but such efforts remain scattered.
Whether this trend represents a permanent cultural shift or a temporary challenge remains uncertain. What is
clear is that reversing it requires addressing both technological distractions and educational priorities.
32. What is the primary purpose of the survey mentioned in paragraph 1
A. To compare reading habits across different age groups.
B. To highlight a decline in teenagers’ reading for pleasure.
C. To promote the benefits of digital entertainment.
D. To criticize the content of modern literature.
33. According to Dr. Linda Martinez, how does digital entertainment affect reading
A. It provides more educational value than books.
B. It trains the brain to prefer short and passive content.
C. It helps improve attention spans through games.
D. It encourages young people to write more creatively.
34. What factor other than technology contributes to the decline in reading
A. The high cost of purchasing books.
B. The lack of interesting stories for teenagers.
C. The emphasis on test preparation in schools.
D. The absence of libraries in local communities.
35. What can be inferred about the efforts to reverse the trend
A. They have been highly successful nationwide.
B. They focus mainly on digital solutions.
C. They are not yet widespread or systematic.
D. They are led by publishing companies.
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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
From the moment humankind first closed its eyes and slipped into the shifting landscapes of sleep, dreams
have haunted (萦绕) and fascinated us. At night, images rise uninvited: loved ones long gone, gods who speak in
riddles, beasts both feared and admired, and journeys across impossible places. 36 . They were messages,
and visions — a secret language whispered by the universe to the soul.
In ancient China, the Zhou Li (Rites of Zhou) and other classical texts describe dream interpretation as a
means to predict the future. Dreams were believed to reveal disturbances in the balance of yin and yang, or it could
signal harmony restored. For example, a dream of flowing water might symbolize life’s continuity. 37 .
One of the most famous dream passages in Chinese philosophy comes from Zhuangzi. He once dreamed he
was a butterfly. Upon waking, he questioned whether he was a man who dreamed he was a butterfly or a butterfly
now dreaming he was a man. 38 . It vividly captured the Chinese view of dreams as a space which is a mix
of reality and illusion (错觉).
39 . Researchers in neuroscience explain dreams as patterns of brain activity, memory processing, and
emotional regulation. REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, where most vivid dreaming occurs, is now understood as
crucial for learning and psychological balance. Sigmund Freud suggested dreams were wish-fulfillments; Carl Jung
saw them as messages from the collective unconscious.
Though modernity explains dreams with science, it cannot remove their poetic charm. We are still dreamers,
still seekers, still interpreters of the night’s riddles. 40 . We walk with gods, with ancestors, with the
timeless mysteries of existence.
A. This dream has been retold for centuries.
B. Likewise, broken objects could warn of trouble.
C. To the ancients, dreams were never meaningless.
D. How dreams are interpreted varies from culture to culture.
E. Today, science throws light on the distinct roles of dreams.
F. The ancients remind us that even in sleep: we are not alone.
G. Dreams are inspirations that prepare us for real-life challenges.

Being an exchange student, I use my camera to bridge cultures and capture moments from the country I call

Traditional Minnan-style houses, with roofs 56 (distinct) curved and walls time-honored, stood
shoulder to shoulder. The 57 (rhythm) calls of free-range chickens provided background music for our
shoot, occasionally interrupted by the distant laughter of villagers passing along the paths.
What 58 (strike) me most was such plain warmth. A woman rode past with a basketful of leafy greens,
her feet barely touching the ground as she slowed 59 (exchange) greetings with neighbors. At the store, the
owner, 60 (wear) a gentle smile, wiped his hands carefully before weighing out dried mushrooms 61

In that instant, I felt I was carried 3,000 kilometers south to my grandmother’s village. Though the landscape
differed, the essence remained unchanged: that familiar village ecosystem 62 shopkeepers remember your
favorite childhood treats and 63 (local) catch up on the latest news.
This is the China I have come to know. It is not just through its high-rises and express trains, 64 in

完整的短文。
Baron and Leo stood side by side, gazing intently at the telescope showcased in the science store’s display.
“One day,” Baron said, his hand resting warmly on his younger brother’s shoulder, “we’ll use one just like this to
find a comet (彗星) together.” That conversation had taken place three months ago. Now, Baron’s own telescope
stood proudly in his room — a sophisticated instrument of black metal and silver accents, paid for with every bit
of his summer earnings.
“Remember, it’s not a toy,” Baron reminded Leo that day. “The lenses (镜头 ) are fragile.” Leo nodded
earnestly, though his fingers were secretly crossed behind his back. The moment Baron’s skateboard wheels faded
down the street, Leo carefully carried the heavy telescope outside.
Pointing the telescope skyward felt like unlocking a magic door. A small group of neighborhood children
gathered, their gasps of “Awesome!” filling him with a surge of pride. Emboldened, he attempted Baron’s favorite
maneuver: tracking a fast-moving satellite.
“Steady now,” he murmured to himself, making a slight adjustment. For a glorious moment, a fast-moving
object filled the eyepiece (目镜) — then the image suddenly twisted out of shape with a faint grinding sound from
inside the tube. “Oh no!” Leo exclaimed, instinctively turning the focus knob (旋钮) too hard. The telescope shook
violently on its tripod (三脚架), tipped over, and hit the ground with a sickening heavy sound. When he lifted it, his
heart sank: the primary lens was damaged by an intricate web of cracks.
Twilight was deepening as Leo carried the wounded instrument back inside, hiding the damaged lens under his
sweater. Scare settled in his stomach like cold stone at the thought of facing Baron. “Maybe I can find a
