The story of how Pretty Yende, a black opera singer, reached the peak of her career is an inspirational one. Born in a tiny rural town, South Africa, she had a
traditional upbringing. Her most direct link to music was church hymns (圣歌).
Yende says that as a shy child, she never considered a career in music. When her grandmother first invited her to sing in church, she knew how uncomfortable it would be to stand in front of people, but she didn’t want to disappoint her. She
overcame her shyness, and it became her first experience of performing in front of massive audiences.
Then one day she saw opera for the first time on TV at the age of 16. “Hearing this music and the power of it sounded like something supernatural.” she recalled. “I remember recording it and imitating it,” she said. “I would play the recording the
whole day. My gosh, my family were in trouble, because I wouldn’t stop practicing and shouting. ”
She started to gain popularity in South Africa while still a student at the
University of Cape Town, and in 2011, Yende began entering opera competitions. “The very first opera competition that I did was in Vienna, Austria, where I won everything possible,” she remembered. Her career took off internationally in 2013 with public performances across the world.
It has not been all without trouble. She continues to address the question of
opera’s white domination, and believes that she can use her fame and talent as an
opportunity to break prejudice. “The biggest challenge has always been being the
different one in the room,” She remembered. “Sometimes I would enter the rehearsal (排练) room, and what I could see in the room looks like, ‘Why are you here ’ And I would just smile. But once I start making music, all of us in that room agreed that I’m not there by mistake.”
4 ．What can be learnt from Yende’s church performing experience
A ．She loved performing on her first try.
B ．She always wanted to please her family.
C ．It was her dream to pursue a singing career.
D ．She was initially not keen on public singing.
5 ．What inspired Yende’s passion for singing
A ．Her grandma’s encouragement. B ．An exposure to opera on TV.
C ．Her success in opera competitions. D ．An experience of singing hymns.
6 ．How did Yende respond to others’ prejudice in her career
A ．She felt helpless. B ．She behaved confidently.
C ．She laughed about it. D ．She demanded a thorough change.
7 ．Which of the following best describes Yende according to the text
A ．Capable and cooperative. B ．Humble and sensitive.
C ．Talented and devoted. D ．Knowledgeable and ambitious.
C
Whether humanity expresses itself in paintings, books, movies, songs or any other creative media, art always finds its way back to the person who made it and
their life stories. It is hard to define what “good” art is, but to me, it means anything that somebody created with the intention of representing something that matters to them.
The one thing that I will never call “art”, however, is anything that was made with artificial intelligence.
Take painting for example. Most of the well-known painters of the past 200
years drew on the lives they lived to make their art. Claude Monet, for example, was inspired by the water garden that he would see daily at his estate (房产) in Normandy, France. This series included some of his most famous works made in the
impressionism style, which focuses on creating the illusion (幻觉) of movement to represent humanity.
The point is that painters drew on the places they lived in and their views of life to create art. They used their understanding of style, color and movement to create
lovely images and represent what mattered to them. That is something that AI is
unable to do. The AI program can only generate an image based on a collection of images from the websites. It cannot draw on its own experience at all.
Another common use of AI programs is to have them generate the written word. For me, there is no heart or soul in what the AI produces. The product requires no
thought or effort, both of which are key parts of meaningful written work. Author
Nora Roberts, who has had 68 of her romance novels appear on The New York Times bestseller list, once said that you have to love the written word to be capable of good writing. AI cannot feel emotions and love what it writes. Therefore, how could it ever
create good writing
The beautiful thing about life is that we all go through it differently, and art has the ability to bring us together with our unique experiences. Neither can AI replicate (复制) that, nor should we make it try.
8 ．What is considered essential for creating meaningful art
A．Artistic skills. B．Unique styles of art. C．Personal experiences.
D ．Advanced technologies.
9 ．Why does the author mention Monet’s artworks
A ．To highlight Monet’s talent for art. B ．To give an example of genuine art.
C ．To trace the beginnings of impressionism. D ．To describe famous painting techniques.
10 ．What is lacking in AI-produced writing
A ．Accuracy and detail. B ．Depth and persuasion.
C ．Structure and balance. D ．Emotion and passion.
11 ．What does the author wish to achieve in the text
A ．To criticize writers’ dependence on AI.B ．To show AI’s value in creative work.
C ．To discourage the use of AI in art. D ．To reveal AI’s importance to artists.
D
It is generally believed that coffee relates to increased watchfulness and faster
heart rates, so people with atrial fibrillation (AF) — the most common irregular (不规则的) heartbeat condition — are often told to avoid it. However, a new study suggests that advice may need a rethink.
Researchers followed 200 people in the US, Canada, and Australia who were
about to go through an operation for AF. All were present or former coffee drinkers.
Half agreed to avoid coffee for six months; the other half agreed to drink at least one cup per day. Across the six months, the researchers tracked AF recurrences (复发)
lasting over 30 seconds. In the coffee-drinker group, 47 percent had suffered from AF, compared with 64 percent of those who didn’t.
“The results astounded us,” says Christopher Wong, a professor from the
University of Adelaide in Australia. “Unlike traditional wisdom, we found the coffee drinkers experienced an obvious reduction in AF compared to those who avoided
coffee and caffeine (咖啡因).”
Lots of explanations for the finding are possible. We know coffee can improve exercise performance, which could protect against AF. It also contains something
acting to help reduce high blood pressure, a risk factor for AF. While it doesn’t show the direct cause and effect, the study adds some valuable evidence to the connection
between coffee and heart conditions. “It makes sense for health care professionals to let their AF patients consider experimenting with caffeinated drinks that they may
enjoy, such as caffeinated tea and coffee,” says Marcus, a medical researcher from the University of California, San Francisco.
This is the first attempt to look at the connection between caffeinated drinks and the happening of AF. The researchers now want to look at the effects on those who
weren’t coffee drinkers to begin with, and how other caffeine drinks might have an influence.
12 ．How did the researchers make the finding
A ．By explaining reasons. B ．By undertaking comparisons.
C ．By making interviews. D ．By reviewing former studies.
13 ．What does the underlined word “astounded” probably mean in Paragraph 3
A ．Shocked. B ．Troubled. C ．Discouraged. D ．Uplifted.
14 ．What does Marcus think of recommending caffeinated drinks to AF patients
A ．Impractical. B ．Uncertain. C ．Influential. D ．Reasonable.
15 ．What may the researchers do in the future
A ．Change measuring tools. B ．Apply the latest findings.
C ．Broaden research subjects. D ．Collect indirect evidences.

Indoor plants might look as if they just sit around not doing much, but in many ways they are the unsung heroes of the home. 16 , but studies have shown that they can promote people’s wellbeing by improving their mood (心情), reducing stress and helping their memory. What’s more, indoor plants are easy to look after and are
not very expensive.
What are indoor plants
Indoor plants, also known as houseplants or pot plants, are plants that like to
grow indoors. Many of these species (物种) are not ideally suited to growing outside in the UK, especially in the winter. 17 .
Why are indoor plants good for you
Will Spoelstra, who works at the Royal Botanic Gardens, says, “ 18 . I
find during the winter months, plants around the house can really lift your mood.”
Several studies have backed this up and found that indoor plants can improve
creativity, focus and memory. There is also research showing that pot plants can clean the air around them by removing harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide. They also
remove some harmful chemicals from paints or cooking. 19 .
Which plants can you grow
Aloe vera, peace lilies and spider plants are some of the species that are easy to grow indoors. You can buy plants from supermarkets, garden centres or online.
Younger plants are often cheaper than fully grown ones, and you get to care for them as they mature — which is part of the joy of owning plants. “ 20 ,” Spoelstra says. “It can bring a new interest and focus into people’s lives and help to make the link between home and nature.”
A ．All plants are different
B ．Not only do they look beautiful
C ．There are many benefits to growing plants indoors
D ．Instead, they grow better inside, where it is warmer
E ．Plants like peace lilies and devil’s ivy are among the best
F ．Changing the pot of your plant from time to time will also help
G ．Learning about the requirements of each plant can be very rewarding

的短文。
Lily was a bright and energetic girl with a heart full of dreams. She lived in a
small and comfort town where everyone knew each other. One sunny morning, Lily’s teacher announced a school talent show. The news excited Lily immediately, as she
had always loved singing and dreamed of performing on stage.
Without hesitation, Lily signed up for the show. She chose her favourite song and started practising right away. Every day after school, she would go to the park and sing her heart out, imagining the big stage and the cheering audience. However, as the days passed, Lily faced a big problem. She found it difficult to reach some of the high notes in the song. No matter how hard she tried, her voice just wouldn’t
cooperate.
Lily started to feel discouraged. She thought about giving up and withdrawing from the talent show. But deep inside, she knew that giving up was not an option. She remembered the words her father always told her, “When life gives you challenges,
face them with courage and never give up.”
Determined to overcome the obstacle, Lily decided to ask for help. She went to her music teacher, Mrs. Brown, and explained her problem. Mrs. Brown was very
kind and patient. She listened to Lily sing and then gave her some useful tips on how to control her voice and reach the high notes. She also encouraged Lily to practise
regularly and believe in herself.
With Mrs. Brown’s guidance, Lily practised even harder. She spent hours every day working on those difficult notes. Sometimes she felt tired and depressed, but she always reminded herself of her dream. Finally, the day of the talent show arrived. Lily was nervous but excited. As she stepped onto the stage and saw the audience looking at her expectantly, her heart raced. But as soon as the music started, she took a deep
breath and began to sing.
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。
Lily poured her heart and soul into the song.

remember recording it and imitating it, ’ she said. ‘I would play the recording the whole day. My gosh, my family were in trouble, because I wouldn’t stop practicing and shouting.’(后来有一天， 16 岁的她第一次在电视上看到了歌剧。‘听到这种音乐和它的力量听起来像超自然的东
西。’她回忆道。‘我记得我把它录下来，然后模仿它，’她说。‘我会放一整天的录音。我的天哪，我的家人有麻烦了，因为我不停地练习和大喊大叫。’)”可知，一次在电视上看到歌剧激发了 Yende 对唱歌的热情。故选 B。

9 ．推理判断题。根据第三段的内容，作者先提出过去的著名画家从自身生活中汲取灵感创作艺术，随后以莫奈为例，说明莫奈的作品灵感来源于他在法国诺曼底庄园里每日所见的水景园。结合第四段首句“The point is that painters drew on the places they lived in and their views of life to create art (关键在于，画家们从自己生活的环境和对生活的见解中汲取灵感进行创
作)”可知，作者提及莫奈的作品是为了举例说明什么是真正的艺术。故选 B 项。
10 ．细节理解题。根据第五段中的“For me, there is no heart or soul in what the AI produces (在我看来，人工智能生成的文字缺乏灵魂与内核)”以及“AI cannot feel emotions and love what it writes (人工智能无法感受情感，也不会热爱自己写下的内容)”可知，人工智能生成的文字缺少的是情感与热忱。故选 D 项。
11．推理判断题。通读全文， 作者开篇点明真正的艺术与创作者的个人经历相关，接着明确表示不会将人工智能生成的内容称为“艺术”，随后从绘画和文字创作两个方面对比人类创作与人工智能生成内容的本质区别，最后强调人工智能无法复制人类独特的生命体验，不应让其尝试创作艺术。由此可知， 作者写这篇文章的目的是反对在艺术创作中使用人工智能。故选 C 项。
12 ．B 13 ．A 14 ．D 15 ．C
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新研究发现饮用咖啡或能降低房颤复发率，颠覆了房颤患者需避免咖啡的传统认知，并阐述研究过程、结果及后续研究方向。
12 ．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Half agreed to avoid coffee for six months; the other half
agreed to drink at least one cup per day. Across the six months, the researchers tracked AF
recurrences (复发) lasting over 30 seconds. In the coffee-drinker group, 47 percent had suffered
from AF, compared with 64 percent of those who didn’t. (一半人同意六个月内不喝咖啡；另一 半人同意每天至少喝一杯。在这六个月里，研究人员追踪了持续 30 秒以上的房颤复发情况。喝咖啡的组别中，47%的人出现了房颤，而不喝咖啡的组别这一比例为 64%)”可知，研究人员将研究对象分为两组做对比实验，通过对比两组的房颤复发数据得出研究发现。故选 B
项。
13 ．词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“It is generally believed that coffee relates to increased
watchfulness and faster heart rates, so people with atrial fibrillation (AF) — the most common
irregular (不规则的) heartbeat condition — are often told to avoid it. (人们普遍认为，咖啡会让人变得更警觉，同时加快心率，因此房颤患者——这是最常见的心律不齐病症——通常会被建议避免饮用咖啡)”以及第三段中的“Unlike traditional wisdom, we found the coffee drinkers experienced an obvious reduction in AF compared to those who avoided coffee and caffeine.(与传统认知不同，我们发现喝咖啡的人相比那些不喝咖啡和咖啡因的人，房颤发生率明显降低)”可知，研究结果与传统认知相悖，超出研究人员的预期。由此推知，“astounded”意为“震惊的” ，与 shocked 意义相近。故选 A 项。
14 ．推理判断题。根据第四段中的““It makes sense for health care professionals to let their AF patients consider experimenting with caffeinated drinks that they may enjoy, such as caffeinated
tea and coffee,” says Marcus, a medical researcher from the University of California, San
Francisco. (医疗从业者让他们的房颤患者考虑尝试自己喜欢的含咖啡因饮品，比如含咖啡因的茶和咖啡，这是合理的)”可推知，Marcus 认为向房颤患者推荐含咖啡因饮品是合理的。故选 D 项。
15．细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The researchers now want to look at the effects on those who weren’t coffee drinkers to begin with, and how other caffeine drinks might have an influence.(研究人员现在想要研究该饮品对原本就不喝咖啡的人的影响，以及其他含咖啡因饮品可能产生的作用)”可知，研究人员未来会拓宽研究对象，将原本不喝咖啡的人纳入研究，同时研究其他含咖啡因饮品的影响。故选 C 项。

them as they mature-which is part of the joy of owning plants.(年轻的植物通常比成熟的植物便宜，而且你可以在它们成熟时照顾它们——这是拥有植物的乐趣之一)”可知，不同的植物需求是不同的。由此可知，G. Learning about the requirements of each plant can be very
rewarding(了解每种植物的需求是非常有益的)能够承接上文，同时引起下文，下文“It can bring a new interest and focus into people’s lives and help to make the link between home and nature.”(它可以为人们的生活带来新的兴趣和焦点，并有助于建立家庭与自然之间的联系。)”具体介绍了了解每种植物的需求的好处。故选 G。

46 ．Possible version 1:
Dear Mr. Smith,
Thank you for proposing the two wonderful ideas for English Week. I would recommend the English Song Competition for the following reasons.
First, singing English songs is a fun way to improve pronunciation and vocabulary
naturally. Many students enjoy music, so participation would be high. Second, this activity allows creative performances solo, duets, or even group acts, making it more engaging than a traditional contest. Lastly, we can invite judges to give feedback on both language skills and stage presence, adding educational value.
I’m sure this event will be both fun and educational for everyone. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
Yours, Li HuaPossible version 2:
Dear Mr. Smith,
Thank you for your thoughtful proposals for the English Week. I would like to express my preference for the English Word Spelling Contest.
I believe this contest would be highly beneficial. It would strongly motivate students to
expand their vocabulary and pay closer attention to spelling accuracy, which is a fundamental skill for English learning. Unlike a song competition, a spelling contest is more inclusive and
accessible to a wider range of students, including those who might be shy about performing. It
would create an atmosphere of focused and academic engagement.
We would greatly appreciate your guidance in organizing it.
Yours,
Li Hua
47 ．One possible version:
Lily poured her heart and soul into the song. Standing on the stage, her eyes closed, she
swung gently with the music. Her voice resounded powerfully and obviously, hitting every note perfectly, especially those high notes that once troubled her. Veins slightly bulged on her neck as she reached for the climax part, and her hands took fast hold on the microphone. The audience sat out of their mind, their eyes fixed on her. When she finished, the whole auditorium erupted into
thunderous applause. Lily’s face lit up, and she felt a sense of pride and achievement wash over her, a huge smile spreading across her cheeks.
After the show, Lily’s friends and teachers crowded around her. Her friends, eyes wide with
admiration, said, “Lily, that was incredible! Every move was so accurate and full of emotion.”
Teachers nodded in agreement, adding, “Your devotion really shone through. The countless hours of practice were evident.” Lily stood there, a shy smile on her face. Glancing around at their
supportive faces, she truly understood that through her own hard work, never-giving-up spirit and the encouragement she’d received, she was capable of reaching any goal. This performance wasn’t just an event; it was a life-changing lesson she’d treasure forever.
