第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节, 满分50分)

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。
A
Trendy vacation spots often come with big crowds and expensive price tags. To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities.
Maui vs. St. Lucia
Maui, Hawaii: $4,259
St. Lucia: $3,650
If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species in particular. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.
Barcelona vs. Mexico City
Barcelona, Spain: $3,819
Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319
Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine — but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts (文物) housed inside it.
Athens vs. Cuzco
Athens, Greece: $3,910
Cuzco, Peru: $3,042
Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.
1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui
A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike.
C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity.
2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum
A. It has a history of over 100 years.
B. It is made of wood and stone.
C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City.
D. It is as impressive as its collections.
3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August
A. Tickets must be booked early.
B. Visiting time is restricted.
C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins.
D. Hotel prices drop significantly.
B
German Sinologist Martin Woesler, who has devoted years to Chinese literature, recently visited Dunhuang, a historic Silk Road city in Gansu Province, China. His trip, part of attending the meeting — the Fourth Dialogue on Exchanges Among Civilizations (文明), became an unforgettable cultural discovery.
Beforehand, Woesler had learned Dunhuang’s role as a desert oasis (绿洲), a treasure house of art, and crossroads of Silk Road cultures. Yet seeing it firsthand amazed him. Standing in front of the Mogao Grottoes, he was attracted by the mixed cultures in Cave 285. There, Greek gods Apollo and Diana, Chinese stories about Fuxi and Nyuwa, Indian Buddhist flying figures, and Daoist immortal beings all appear together in frescoes (壁画).“Different traditions come together here to make a 1,000-year-old wonder,” he said, amazed by Dunhuang’s spirit of inclusiveness.
Woesler’s journey with Chinese culture began 38 years ago in his hometown of Münster, Germany, when a Chinese poem at a poetry reading awakened his curiosity. He devoted himself to narrowing the cultural gap between China and Germany. Then he studied at Peking University and spent over thirty years in China. As a translator and educator, he launched workshops to promote Chinese literature in Germany, aiming to address the imbalance in cultural translation — where far fewer Chinese works reach German readers compared to foreign ones in Chinese.
Dunhuang’s experience also inspired his thoughts on digital-age dialogue. He believes technologies like digital protection and virtual (虚拟的) exhibitions can make ancient treasures accessible, helping people welcome differences with openness. “We can achieve win-win progress only by learning from each other,” he notes, stressing how Dunhuang’s age-old wisdom holds the key to modern global harmony.
As his trip ended, Woesler carried away more than memories — he got renewed confidence in the power of civilizational dialogue. “Dunhuang is not just a place; it’s a lesson in how diversity can create something timeless,” he concludes, hoping its spirit will guide modern efforts to build a more connected world.
4. Why did Woesler visit Dunhuang
A. To explore the ancient Silk Road.
B. To take part in a cultural exchange activity.
C. To study the role of Dunhuang as a desert oasis.
D. To launch cultural workshops on Chinese literature.
5. What impressed Woesler in Cave 285
A. The mystery of Chinese stories.
B. The larger collection of foreign artworks.
C. The peaceful coexistence of diverse cultures.
D. The advanced digital protection technologies applied.
6. What did Woesler do to bridge China-German cultural divides
A. He translated German literature into Chinese.
B. He promoted Chinese literature in Germany.
C. He set up art workshops in Peking University.
D. He teamed with educators to explore Chinese culture.
7. What can be the best title for the text
A. The History of the Silk Road Art Treasures
B. Digital Technology: Renewing Ancient Dunhuang
C. A Journey to Dunhuang: Discovering Cultural Mix
D. Martin Woesler’s Lifelong Study of Chinese Culture
C
The Plastic Problem: A Global Challenge
Environmental scientist Dr. Sarah Johnson once joked that if aliens (外星人) visited Earth, they might think plastic bags were the planet’s dominant species. “These lightweight creatures cover land and sea, threat wildlife, and never truly disappear,” she said. Her words highlight a serious issue: humanity’s addiction to single-use plastics.
Plastic pollution is widespread and cause a lot of damage and destruction. Every year, over 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the oceans, killing millions of marine animals. Sea turtles mistake plastic bags for jellyfish, birds get tangled in fishing nets, and whales ingest microplastics that accumulate in their stomachs. Microplastics—tiny plastic particles smaller than a grain of rice—have even been found in human bodies, potentially harming our health. Studies suggest they could enter our bloodstream and organs, causing long-term risks. Plastic production also contributes to climate change: manufacturing and disposing of plastics release greenhouse gases, worsening global warming. In fact, if plastic production continues at current rates, the industry could account for 20% of global oil consumption by 2050.
The convenience of plastic has come at a high cost. In some countries, plastic bags are used for just minutes but take centuries to degrade. Many cities spend millions on cleanup efforts, while poorer regions struggle to manage waste. For example, in coastal towns in Southeast Asia, plastic waste blocks drainage (排水) systems during rainy seasons, causing floods. In some African countries, plastic bottles and bags litter streets and fields, attracting pests and spreading diseases. The economic costs are astonishing: a recent report estimated that plastic pollution costs the global economy $13 billion annually in environmental damage and cleanup expenses.
Solutions exist, but they require action. Bans on single-use plastics have been effective in some places. However, new technologies are emerging. Additionally, reusable alternatives are affordable and eco-friendly. “Change starts with individual choices,” says Johnson. “If we stop using disposable plastics and demand sustainable options, we can save our planet from becoming a plastic graveyard.” The time to act is now. But governments, businesses, and communities must also cooperate. Together, we can turn the tide against this global challenge.
8. What does the word “dominant” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean
A. well-controlled B. fastest-growing
C. most common D. highly intelligent
9. According to the passage, which of the following is a direct effect of plastic pollution
A. Global temperatures rise due to plastic production.
B. Recycling programs become more expensive.
C. Cities spend less money on waste management.
D. Floods occur frequently in all coastal areas.
10. What can be inferred from the example of Southeast Asia in Paragraph 3
A. Plastic waste is the main cause of floods worldwide.
B. Wealthier countries have better waste management systems.
C. Rainy seasons make plastic pollution more visible.
D. Poor regions face greater challenges in handling plastic waste.
11. What is Dr. Sarah Johnson’s attitude towards plastic pollution
A. She believes plastic is necessary for human convenience.
B. She is worried about its long-term effects on the environment.
C. She doubts the effectiveness of plastic recycling methods.
D. She is optimistic that plastic problems will solve naturally.
D
A slow-paced Citywalk is becoming popular across China. Different from rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has appeared as a popular choice to explore cities at a leisurely (悠闲的) pace.
Citywalk particularly attracts the younger generation who are often caught up in busy work schedules. As proved by the increasing popularity of hash tags (话题标签) like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohongshu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464,600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.
Citywalk can be a special guided trip for a small group of people, or simply a leisurely walk for one or two to explore new areas, sticking to the key point: avoiding famous scenic spots and big crowds to gain a more inclusive experience of the places you visit. It offers people a way to closely experience city culture and local traditions.
Citywalk routes are specially planned to the specific interests of both tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions center around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle.
As Citywalk extends beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation. Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential (潜力) of Citywalk, including it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced for Citywalk participants.
“By slowing down and exploring the city streets, observing people’s lives, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one has the chance to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism lover.
12. Why does the author mention the example of Xiaohongshu
A. To stress the importance of social media.
B. To illustrate the wide popularity of Citywalk.
C. To call on people to click to view Xiaohongshu.
D. To persuade readers to take part in “City walk for vacation”.
13. What’s the meaning of the underlined “staggering” in paragraph 2
A. Surprising. B. Frightening. C. Confusing. D. Embarrassing.
14. Which of the following is NOT Citywalk
A. A free walk to visit old hutong in Beijing.
B. A holiday group travel to tourist attractions of Qufu.
C. A trip for tourists to enjoy the teahouse culture in Chengdu.
D. A leisurely tour to experience city transformation of Guangzhou.
15. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk
A. Facilities in the museums have been improved.
B. Connection has been strengthened among cities.
C. More shopping centers have been built in third-tier cities.
D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
In a coastal village named Seaford, lived a brave young woman named Agatha, who was known for her adventurous nature. From the time she could walk, she would eagerly run towards the crashing waves, feeling the sand under her feet and the cool sea spray on her face. She had a strong will and a kind heart. Agatha loved the ocean deeply and spent most of her days exploring the beautiful beaches and sparkling waters that surrounded her house.
One sunny morning, while walking along the shore, Agatha noticed something unusual. A group of seagulls were circling above the crashing waves and making strange cries. Concerned for their well-being, she followed them, her instinct (本能) guiding her toward danger.
As she approached a high cliff (悬崖), Agatha stopped in shock. On a narrow ledge (岩架), high above the rough waves, lay a young dolphin trapped in a thick fishing net. Its shiny body shone under the golden rays of the sun, but the net held it tightly. With each struggle, the net tightened around its delicate body, leaving painful marks on its skin. Its tail moved helplessly, each movement a request for help, while its bitter cries for assistance echoed through the air.
A sense of urgency filled her, pushing her forward with determination. Realizing that the time was tight, Agatha knew she had to act immediately to free this poor creature from its difficult position before it became too tired or was swept away by the rising tide.

（1）续写词数应为150个左右；

【答案】Dear Zhang Ming,
I’m sorry to hear that you failed the recent exam and have been in low spirits these days. I am quite worried about you and hope you can cheer up soon.
Actually, failure is the mother of success. What matters most is not the result itself but your attitude towards it. It might be that you felt too nervous before the exam or didn’t master key knowledge firmly, which leads to your unsatisfying score. Don’t lose heart, for every failure is a chance to improve ourselves. I am always here to help you. We can go over difficult lessons together after class every day, and I will share my learning notes with you. It is by keeping trying and correcting mistakes that we can make steady progress.
Cheer up! I believe you can make progress soon.
Yours, Li Hua
答案】Version 1
Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help. Her bare feet stepped quickly on the soft sand, and the salty wind brushed her cheeks as she shouted for villagers at the top of her lungs. Several fishermen and young people who were mending nets by the shore immediately noticed her anxious look and followed her without hesitation. They carried thick ropes, sharp knives and simple rescue tools, rushing to the beach where the poor dolphin was trapped. Working together carefully, they cut the messy fishing net bit by bit, afraid of hurting the dolphin’s smooth skin. The dolphin seemed to feel their kindness, staying still and letting out soft, grateful sounds from its mouth.
Paragraph 2: As the dolphin was gently released into the waters, it hesitated for a moment. It swam slowly around Agatha and the villagers, its fin waving lightly as if saying thank you. Agatha reached out her hand and touched the dolphin’s warm body softly, with tears of joy shining in her eyes. After circling three times, the dolphin leaped high out of the water, drawing a beautiful arc in the golden sunset, then dived into the blue sea and disappeared gradually. Watching the dolphin swim freely again, Agatha smiled widely, knowing that this warm rescue would be the most unforgettable memory in her whole life because it served as a reminder that the true joy in life came from selflessly giving a hand to those in need.
Version 2
Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help. With every fiber of her body trembling with anxiety, she sprinted along the shore, her voice piercing / ripping the quiet seaside air as she cried out for assistance. Upon catching sight of her desperate expression, several experienced fishermen and warm-hearted villagers dropped whatever they were doing and rushed to follow her without a second thought. Armed with sharp knives and sturdy ropes, they approached the trapped dolphin cautiously, cutting the tangled fishing net with the utmost care to avoid injuring its delicate skin. The intelligent creature, sensing their goodwill, remained calm and let out soft, reassuring chirps throughout the rescue.
Paragraph 2: As the dolphin was gently released into the waters, it hesitated for a moment. It lingered beside Agatha and the villagers, gliding back and forth in a slow circle as if expressing its sincere gratitude. Agatha stretched out her hand, gently stroking its smooth and warm back, her eyes glistening with tears of relief and joy. Then, with a powerful flick of its tail, it leaped spectacularly into the air, carving a dazzling arc against the golden sunset before diving gracefully into the vast ocean. Watching the dolphin vanish into the blue waves, Agatha’s heart swelled with warmth, cherishing this touching moment as the most precious memory of her life.
