第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Bookmark these Paris neighborhoods that look straight out of a postcard for your next trip to the romantic city.
Montmartre
As you approach this storybook village, you’re instantly taken aback by its charm. Live musicians and painters liven up the streets, while people enjoy meals on outdoor tables and watch the world go by. It was once the home of famous artists Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, and Claude Monet, a testament to the enduring inspiration of the atmosphere, both then and now.
Le Marais
The Marais was built on the former marshes (沼泽). The cobblestone streets are lined with classic restaurants as well as private 17th-century houses boasting striking architecture. Travel down Rue Fran?ois Miron to see the oldest houses in Paris, and then walk through the H?tel Salé, home to the Picasso Museum. Victor Hugo, the author of Les Misérables, owned a house in the Marais that has been finely preserved.
La Mouza?a
The Mouza?a neighborhood feels like a secret garden in Paris. Small homes line narrow roads; their walls wrapped in vines (藤蔓) and bursts of colors from a mixture of flowers. Once built for miners, it has blossomed into a community with old-fashioned village appeal. Walking through Mouza?a Village feels like stepping into the countryside, even though it’s less than an hour’s walk from the crowds of the Louvre.
La Campagne à Paris
La Campagne à Paris reveals itself like a treasure just waiting to be discovered. Narrow paths curl around grand brick houses, their walls spilling over with climbing plants and leafy terraces (露天平台), softening every edge. Built to house the working class in the early 1900s, it has since transformed into a peaceful escape from the city.
1. What can visitors experience in Montmartre?
A. Admiring climbing plants on brick walls. B. Touring preserved 17th-century houses.
C. Watching live street performances. D. Exploring historic mining facilities.
2. Which neighborhood has the oldest residential buildings in Paris?
A. Montmartre. B. Le Marais.
C. La Mouza?a. D. La Campagne à Paris.
3. What do La Mouza?a and La Campagne à Paris have in common?
A. They once accommodated workers.
B. They inspired famous literary works.
C. They feature the oldest houses in Paris.
D. They house museums in honor of artists.
B
My best friend and I were headed to Italy for travelling. When we started packing for the trip the week before, she said, “We are told to only take our smallest suitcase, and we have to use it for ten days. So, think small.” I’d never packed this light for a trip before, and I’d been big on fashion and I loved clothes. I would have to learn to re-wear clothing for the ten days we were there. It would be a challenge.
I looked at my wardrobe (衣橱) stuffed with so many items. How had I accumulated so much clothing that I didn’t even wear? I picked out basic pieces, finding tops, shorts, pants, and skirts that I could mix and match for the warm June weather we would be enjoying. To my utter disbelief, they all stowed away in my suitcase with my toiletries (洗漱用品). I wondered why I needed all the rest of my stuff. I decided I’d think about that after the trip.
Off we went, and as we sipped delicious drinks on rooftop restaurants in Italy, we talked about our suitcase packing. Even though we chose far fewer clothing items than we were used to, we were having the best time. It was like taking a worry off our backs by not having to think about what to wear every day. Was this just travel happiness that wouldn’t last as soon as I got home? Could I live this minimally at home and be happy with it once the vacation was over?
As soon as I got home, I began eliminating non-necessities from my wardrobe. Afterward, getting ready for the day was no longer a chore. I lived for relationships and experiences rather than things, and I’d never been happier.
Who knew that a trip to Italy with a small suitcase would show me the freedom I had yet to explore? It was one small suitcase, but it was a world of freedom.
4. Why did the author find packing for the trip challenging?
A. Her friend set strict requirements for the journey. B. She had difficulty choosing from her wardrobe.
C. She lacked suitable clothes for summer weather. D. She was informed to travel with limited luggage.
5. What does the underlined phrase “stowed away” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Faded. B. Emerged. C. Fit. D. Hid.
6. What did the author find during her stay in Italy?
A. She regretted her overpacking for the trip. B. Fewer clothing choices proved refreshing.
C. Her clothing mismatched her dining experience. D. Her true happiness came from being on vacation.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Trip Changed My Relationship with Stuff. B. A Lasting Friendship Forming During a Trip.
C. A Fashion Lover’s Useful Guide to Minimalism. D. A Memorable Trip Brought a Lesson in Fashion.
C
With their bright green eyes and slim bodies, gulper sharks are odd-looking, prehistoric creatures that used to be found worldwide in waters from 200 to 1,500 meters deep. But now, they face a crisis. Three quarters of the species are threatened with extinction, targeted for their liver oil, which is particularly rich in a chemical compound known as squalene (角鲨烯), commonly used in beauty products for its antioxidant and moisturizing (保湿) properties.
New international trade protections, announced at the 20th conference of parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), could turn the fate of these deepwater sharks around. Gulper sharks have been listed on CITES Appendix Ⅱ, which regulates trade of the species across international borders and improves monitoring, while endangered whale sharks are among those that have been uplisted to CITES Appendix Ⅰ, which bans all commercial trade of the species and their products.
According to a 2024 study, nearly two-thirds of threatened deepwater sharks have been used in liver oil products. Gulper sharks are particularly prized because their liver oil contains over 70% squalene, the highest percentage of any shark family. As a result, populations of gulper sharks have dropped by more than 80% in some regions. This could be disastrous for gulper sharks, which mature late in life and have slow reproductive rates. Once their populations decline, it can take years for them to recover. By one scientific estimate, the dumb gulper shark is a species that has been severely overfished in Australia, and would take 86 years to recover just 25% of its original population size.
Before today, despite there being more than 100 sharks and rays listed in CITES Appendix Ⅰ and Appendix Ⅱ, few were deep-water species. Luke Warwick, director of shark and ray conservation at the Wildlife Conservation Society, said, “Sharks are the second most endangered group of species on the planet, and many are running out of time… The latest decision could not have been more urgent.”
8. What has caused the sharp decline in gulper shark populations?
A. Their prehistoric appearance.
B. Their slow reproductive ability.
C. The loss of deep-sea habitats.
D. The rising demand for squalene.
9. What do we know about the new CITES decision?
A. Gulper sharks face tighter control over international trade.
B. International trade in gulper sharks is completely banned.
C. Gulper sharks’ liver oil can no longer be used in products.
D. Gulper sharks are better protected within national borders.
10. Why are the dumb gulper shark in Australia mentioned?
A. To prove the achievement of protecting gulper sharks.
B. To show it’s hard to rebuild gulper shark populations.
C. To explain why gulper sharks have high squalene content.
D. To present the similar situation of other deepwater sharks.
11. What is Luke Warwick’s attitude towards the new CITES decision?
A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Dismissive.
D
There comes a point in many a parent’s life when their sweet child begins to fire back with cutting remarks and sarcastic (嘲讽的) behaviour that’s enough to make parents want to go into hiding for the foreseeable future.
Why are teens mean sometimes? According to Counselling Directory member Ana Hristov, teens still lack emotional control, and the part of the brain that deals with reasoning and planning is still developing. That can result in poor filtering (过滤) and general directness that may come across as rude, touchy and sometimes even mean. On top of all, their nervous system is maturing, meaning teens can experience a heightened sensitivity to stress, which can make them overreact to the situations, with small stimuli leading to big reactions.
Another factor for the big change around this time has to do with the normal process of slowly distancing from family in favour of peers (同龄人), where they go through great efforts to fit in and avoid being perceived by their peers negatively. Social media and study pressure add an extra layer of complexity to the mix.
It’s OK to let this kind of behaviour slide occasionally for the sake of not getting into a constant cycle of negative interactions. But Hristov cautioned that if the rude behaviour is directed at siblings (兄弟姐妹), for instance, parents need to pull up on it immediately as your other children need a visible demonstration of you taking a firm stand, and it must be made clear that such behaviour will not be tolerated in your home.
However, immediate punishment can sometimes escalate the situation further. Similarly, responses rooted in further shaming or sarcasm will increase defensiveness rather than encourage reflection. Hristov’s advice for parents in this position is to respond, rather than react. Try to remain calm, reflecting on what might be underneath the comment. Revisit the conversation when everything’s calm. Lastly, parenting teens is hard work so it’s vital that you take time out to recharge your batteries.
12. What does Ana Hristov say about teenagers’ rude behaviour?
A. It results from their immature brain.
B. It is mainly affected by social media.
C. It is a reminder of improper parenting.
D. It reflects their desire for independence.
13. What can be inferred about teens’ distancing from family?
A. It potentially brings about study pressure.
B. It leads to long-term family breakdown.
C. It results from negative peer judgement.
D. It is a natural part of their development.
14. What is Ana Hristov’s view about teenagers being mean to their siblings?
A. They may be trying to fit in with their peers.
B. They will eventually grow out of it naturally.
C. They require parents’ immediate intervention.
D. They want to demonstrate their firm stand.
15. What is Ana Hristov’s advice about parenting teenagers?
A. It ought to be strictly disciplined.
B. It requires empathy and self-care.
C. It involves always maintaining distance.
D. It demands constant negative interactions.

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。
As a university lecturer, I cannot deny the widespread use of AI, which has already become an essential tool in education today. ____16____ I am deeply disappointed to see that some of our students use AI to complete their assignments. I observe that they are telling AI to think for them, rather than thinking with AI. I believe this trend will, over time, blunt (使……变钝) the minds of our youth, consequently weakening the value of our young generation’s human capital. AI has the potential to transform the way we learn, work, and think when used thoughtfully.
____17____ In the past, we had to go to bookstores to find reference books and workbooks to test our understanding. Even then, some workbooks were too difficult, while others were too easy and did not challenge our abilities. Based on our conversations with AI, it can alleviate this problem by tailoring specific learning materials and self-assessments to our level of understanding and ability.
AI can be our debate opponent. Doing so not only sharpens our ability to argue effectively but also strengthens our capacity for critical thought. Numerous reports indicate that critical thinking ranks as the most vital skill across all industries in the 21st century. To further develop this skill, we can use AI to assess how deeply we understand an issue. ____18____
AI can provide feedback. ____19____ After doing exercises and debating with AI, it can summarize our progress by providing constructive feedback. Traditionally, we only receive feedback from teachers, however, the quality of feedback is dependent on a person’s mood as human feedback can change according to the situation and atmosphere. ____20____ AI doesn’t have moods like humans do.
A. AI can help us personalize learning.
B. But with AI, the feedback is more objective.
C. This complements the points mentioned earlier.
D. Therefore, we must set clear boundaries in the use of AI.
E. AI can’t be an excellent tool to recognize our learning styles.
F. It can also evaluate how capable we are of defending our position.
G. However, AI is increasingly used to finish a given task by irresponsible users.

47. 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。
My mother was an amazing person. She was amazing not because of any major achievements or honors. She was amazing because of the quiet intensity of her love for her husband, children, and grandchildren. Their needs came before her own.
The one pleasure she allowed herself was her garden. It was there that she found her joy. Yet, even there, the flowers, herbs, and vegetables were not for her but for others. Mom would arrange roses and lilies for a friend’s wedding and sweeten our house with her favorite yellow and white daffodils (水仙花), until the day she had to leave her garden behind.
She had been diagnosed with cancer and could no longer live alone. She came to live with me, my wife and our 7-year-old daughter. Between treatments, my mother would work in my garden, which, though not as spacious or inclusive of varietals as hers, became a source of comfort. She planted varieties on every exposed piece of earth she could find. Our house became a veritable botanical garden, the envy of the neighborhood.
However, as winter came, my mother’s health continued to fail. One day, I returned from work to find she was slowly digging small holes in the garden and putting something into them. “What are you planting, Mom?” I asked. She smiled with a hint of mystery, “I left you something. You’ll know when you see it.” I didn’t think much of it at the time.
After that planting, she was unable to do any of her gardening work. And then, one day, she was gone. In the following days, my family was absorbed in the seemingly endless details associated with her. There were tears, laughter and nostalgic (怀旧的) gatherings, during which no plants bloomed (开花) and my garden returned to bare earth. Weeks passed. The coolness of the winter gave way to the richness and warmth of spring.

Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m writing to apply for the overseas exchange program. Having long dreamed of experiencing life in a different cultural context, I believe this opportunity will broaden my horizons and help me grow into a more open-minded, independent individual.
I’m a suitable candidate: I have a solid command of English for confident, effective communication, and my active participation in school cultural activities has honed my adaptability and teamwork skills. Most importantly, I’m eager to act as a cultural ambassador, sharing Chinese traditions with international peers.
I’d be grateful if you could consider my application. I look forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】参考范文：
And then something amazing happened. One rainy morning, my daughter burst through the back door, her face flushed with excitement. “Daddy! Come look! The garden is full of green shoots!” I followed her outside. Green shoots emerged from the soil in every part of the garden. My daughter knelt down, touching one tenderly. “Grandma planted these, didn’t she?” she whispered. I nodded, unable to speak, as tears mingled with raindrops on my cheeks. My mother had been planting her parting gift on that cold winter day, knowing she wouldn’t be there to see it bloom. In the days that followed, we attended to them carefully, hoping they would grow well.
With our attentive care, the green shoots(幼苗) revealed themselves. The first golden blossoms appeared on a warm morning — daffodils, my mother’s favorite flowers, nodding their cheerful heads in the sunlight. Soon the entire garden transformed into a sea of yellow and white, their bold, irresistible fragrance spilling from our house, our lawn and our garden, over the fence into the surrounding neighborhood. And then, I remembered my mother’s words, “I left you something. You’ll know when you see it.” She had planted them in the winter, knowing well that they would bloom in the spring. When she was gone, there was a final gift and love for her children and grandchildren.
