There was no way to escape when they spotted a polar bear. Verena Mohaupt and a handful of colleagues were trapped on floating sea ice while the bear gazed at them, smelling the air — a dangerous sign.
“That’s when everything kicks in,” Mohaupt says, “and you focus on what’s important.” As a colleague fired into the sky as a warning shot, Mohaupt radioed their research ship a few kilometres away, whose helicopter luckily arrived quickly and Mohaupt didn’t have to use the gun that was hanging over her shoulder.
Keeping a lookout for bears was a regular duty for Mohaupt, the logistics coordinator (后勤协调员) for a year-long mission known as MOSAiC — the largest Arctic research exploration in history. The project, consisting of roughly 300 scientists, led by scientist Markus Rex, has collected massive measurements that will help better forecast how warming will transform the globe in the coming decades. For months, the exploration operated in constant darkness while polar bears wandered nearby, storms rocked the ship and the ice shifted and cracked. Then, when the Sun returned, the ice began to melt, creating a life-threatening risk and a nightmare for researchers who needed to keep their instruments from sinking.
Tasked with the security of the mission, Mohaupt designed an extensive training course for the participants in which they learnt how to avoid the danger, like storm-rocking and ice-cracking. They jumped into a Norwegian channel in their survival suits and climbed out of the freezing waters using only their ice picks. And they also discussed the psychological effects of being far from home.
Mohaupt didn’t expect a career in polar regions, but says she has always been drawn to the north. “She was there to make sure that we were protected,” says a scientist, “Mohaupt is certainly the champion in the field.”
24. Why does the author mention a polar bear in the beginning
A. To show the threat of bears. B. To tell an interesting story.
C. To introduce Mohaupt’s job. D. To describe the polar scenery.
25. What can we know from paragraph 3
A. The working conditions were tough. B. Mohaupt helped to collect massive data.
C. The exploration went on in total darkness. D. Mohaupt’s duty was to protect polar bears.
26. Which of the following best describes Mohaupt
A. Ambitious and brave. B. Passionate and dependent.
C. Considerate and modest. D. Professional and responsible.
27. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Potential Danger in the Exploration B. A Guardian Angel for Polar Researchers
C. A Great Scientific Exploration in History D. A Great Female Scientist in Polar Research

In an age when digital assistants complete our sentences before we fully form them, it is easy to believe that printed dictionaries have outlived their usefulness. Yet they remain essential, because no tool better reminds us that language is not simply corrected — it is crafted.
Before spell-check and AI, students and writers turned to dictionaries not only to check meanings but also to explore usage examples and word histories. A student drafting an essay, for instance, might look up “charge” and discover it can mean “accuse” “rush forward” or “fill with energy”. Choosing among these possibilities required thought, and that process often shaped the writer’s ideas. An AI assistant, by contrast, may simply replace the word with the most common option, leaving little room for personal intention.
Dictionaries have also played a guiding role in English. Johnson’s and Webster’s dictionaries, widely used by schools and publishers, helped establish spelling and meaning at times when regional dialects differed sharply. Even today, when dictionary makers update entries to reflect new expressions such as “ghosting” or “finsta”, they rely on everyday speakers for evidence. This back-and-forth — public use influencing dictionaries, dictionaries influencing public use — keeps language both flexible and shared.
But this balance is weakening. As online communication takes over daily life, formal English ebbs. Casual abbreviations, emojis, and speech-like sentences now appear in emails and even workplace reports. For many young people, writing “Sounds good!!!” reads more confident than a polished, formal sentence. The shift is understandable, yet it raises a question: If algorithms (算法) increasingly finish our sentences, do we still learn how to shape them ourselves
AI writing tools offer clean, quick suggestions, but they rely on fixed patterns. As George Orwell once warned, such ready-made phrasing can “think our thoughts” for us. When writers accept every suggestion, originality slowly disappears. Dictionaries, by contrast, push us to explore options and make deliberate choices.
Our ability to express ourselves shapes who we are. Losing the dictionary would mean losing not only a reference book, but a way of thinking — one that keeps language creative, thoughtful, and deeply human.
28. What does the example of “charge” show
A. Word histories are stressed a lot in dictionaries.
B. AI assistants are more efficient than printed dictionaries.
C. Printed dictionaries help users gain deeper insight into words.
D. Students struggle to choose the right meaning of certain words.
29. What does the underlined word “ebbs” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Withdraws. B. Arises. C. Improves. D. Stabilizes.
30. What can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. AI tools contribute much to creative works.
B. No convenience comes without a cost.
C. Dictionaries provide more fixed word choices than AI tools.
D. George Orwell encouraged the use of existing writing patterns.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. The History of English Dictionaries
B. AI Assistants Threaten Language Creativity
C. The Necessity of Formal English in Digital Age
D. Printed Dictionaries Are Still Essential in Digital Times
D
At one time, the inheritance (传承) of traditional drama was difficult. Many celebrities and big names went to communities to carry out public welfare performances of opera, and did everything possible to expand the coverage of traditional drama. In recent years, traditional Chinese culture and art have gained a foothold on short video platforms and attracted a large number of young followers thanks to the explosive growth of the short video industry. Relaxing and emotional, these video contents perfectly match the demands of the users. With the application of new technologies such as social communication and immersive (浸式的) experiencing, short video platforms are seeing more users, becoming a shining spot of new Internet media.
Recently, Huangmei Opera “Female Consort Prince” became a hit on short video platforms. The interactive platforms are expanding the charm of the traditional opera among young people. Beijing Opera was also well-received on short video platforms thanks to a series of augmented reality (AR) effects. Users love to film short videos with a set of virtual facial makeup, headwear and costumes. Data indicate that these effects were applied by more than 18 million users, most of whom were young.
In addition to Chinese operas, intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) items, such as embroidery, paper-cutting, printing and dyeing, shadow play, oil-paper umbrella making, and bamboo weaving are also actively promoted on short video platforms. In a word, short video platforms are becoming an important channel to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.
Short video platforms, offering a fun, popular and easy way to explore the traditional art forms, are receiving a lot of positive feedback from China’s young generations. The seconds, or minutes long videos, along with unlimited possibilities as well as richness of styles, have produced remarkable achievements in promoting traditional Chinese culture.
32. What mainly made the inheritance of traditional drama difficult
A. The difficult techniques of drama. B. The slow growth of the art industry.
C. The poorly-met demands of the users. D. The shortage of good drama actors
33. What led to the popularity of Beijing Opera on short video platforms
A. The social communication. B. The application of new technologies.
C. The positive reviews from users. D. The set of virtual facial makeup.
34. Why are paper-cutting and bamboo weaving mentioned
A. To prove traditional art forms are actively promoted.
B. To illustrate the charm of traditional Chinese culture.
C. To show the current situation of intangible cultural heritage.
D. To offer new channels to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. The Bright Future of Traditional Chinese Drama
B. The Explosive Growth of the Short Video Industry
C. The Simple Way to Explore the Traditional Art Form
D. The Creative Combination of Culture and Technologies
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In literature, flat and round characters offer distinct approaches to character development. Flat characters are defined by a singular symbolic characteristic. 36 For example, the evil stepmothers in traditional fairy tales are flat characters, serving to drive the story with their simplicity.
By contrast, Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber exemplifies (是……典型) round characters, defined by inner conflict, contradictions, and personal growth. 37 They reflect the unpredictability of humanity, making them more relatable and dynamic to readers.
In earlier literary works, flat characters often symbolized heroic ideals, such as the brave heroes in The Odysey. As society moves away from idealized heroes, literature focuses more on characters’ personal struggles, reflecting how writers began to see humanity in a more complex way. With the rise of realism in the 19th century, round characters gained popularity, as seen in Jane Eyre, which allowed for the exploration of personal identity and internal conflict. 38
However, not every character that appears in a story needs to be deep. 39 Imagine the main character is taking a taxi to a hotel. If we make the taxi driver a round character, the focus could shift from the main character to the taxi driver, potentially taking attention away from the main plot.
40 They together create tension and richness in a literary work. Flat characters provide clarity and focus, simplifying themes and making them accessible to readers. Meanwhile, round characters reveal human complexity, showing life beyond black and white.
A. Neither type of character is better than the other.
B. Such characters stand out for complexity and depth.
C. We don’t get a heartfelt backstory to enrich the book.”
D. If flat characters are round, they may “steal the show”.
E. Round characters are more engaging than flat characters.
F. This shows how literature reflects changing social views.
G. They are more like a spotlight, drawing attention to one aspect.

第二节(满分25分)
When I arrived home from school, night was falling. I got a call from the local wildlife protection organization: a bird of unknown species was being attacked by a group of noisy children in a man’s front garden. He scared them off and grabbed the victim. I immediately called for my classmate Jack to the spot.
We were standing in front of a stranger’s house in an unfamiliar street, rescue box in hand. “The bird would be our first test as volunteer wildlife rescuers!” Jack said excitedly. We had completed the two-day intensive training course the previous month, in which we had learned the basic skills of rescuing animals in various situations.
But we were anxious too. After all, it was the first time for us to rescue a bird. Would I be able to transfer the bird neatly into my rescue box Many worries flashed in my mind. Sensing my unease about the act ahead, Jack said, “These things are pretty easy to deal with!”
I was wondering what kind of bird it was when a kind-looking man appeared and led us inside to see our very first patient. I lifted the edge of the shoebox very slightly to see an angry-looking bird standing inside on very thin and long legs, together with a slice of banana and some water. He didn’t know its true name but the folks called the creature Red Fan. “It’s eaten some bananas,” said the man proudly. The poor soul seemed rather nervous, so I decided not to grab it by hand but just transfer the whole shoebox into my rescue box.
Back home, we could only see some minor injuries in its left wing, but there was no blood on its feathers. Jack managed to treat the injuries with some iodophor (碘伏药水). We assessed its condition to find out if it was appropriate to release the bird the next day. How could we help it spend the night peacefully We hadn’t seen this species of bird before, let alone its habits.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Why not do a search on the Internet ” suggested Jack. The next day we were glad to see the bird was well enough.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear from you. Regarding your inquiry about whether high schools should offer a career planning course, I firmly believe it’s necessary.
First and foremost, career planning helps students understand their interests and strengths better, which can guide them towards a fulfilling future. In addition, it also enables them to make informed decisions on their academic path and potential career options. Therefore, I strongly suggest incorporating it into compulsory courses. This could be done through workshops, seminars, and guest speakers, offering students valuable information and guidance throughout their academic journey.
Thank you for considering my option, I’m confident that the course will benefit students in their future endeavors.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
“Why not do a search on the Internet ” suggested Jack. We acted quickly and surfed the Internet to figure out the relevant information about the bird, such as its species and habits. Following the given advice, we put some cotton at the bottom of the box to keep it warm and placed it near the fireplace. In order to help it recover its energy, we gave it some food and water. The bird looked a bit more comfortable, and soon it fell asleep. Having ensured the bird was in good condition, we felt relieved. The next day, we were glad to see the bird was well enough. It was singing and bouncing up and down in the rescue box. Obviously, it had regained its energy! Realizing it was fully ready for freedom, we took the box outside, placed the bird in my palm and petted it softly with mixed feelings. I held the bird up and let it go. The bird was circling above us as if to express its gratitude. Jack and I looked at each other with a broad smile, feeling that we were qualified wildlife rescuers now.
