When people ask about my experience of learning Cantonese，I recount a journey driven by unending curiosity and a strong desire to connect with a dynamic culture.
Growing up in a Russian family，my fascination with languages grew thanks to my father，a language expert.It’s during a cultural appreciation class in junior high that I was first introduced to the world of Hong Kong films，famous for their characteristic action-packed dramas and storytelling styles.However，what really amazed me was the uniqueness of the language，Cantonese，which sparked an urgent need within me to explore it and the rich culture behind.This marked the beginning of a thrilling linguistic journey.
Learning Cantonese posed challenges，such as unfamiliar characters，complex tones，and different grammar structures，yet I persevered.Immersed in textbooks and available online courses，I practiced the tones everyday until my pronunciation flowed naturally.Cantonese dramas and music also played a role in familiarizing me with its rhythm.
To truly grasp the essence of Cantonese，I knew that studying alone wasn’t enough—I needed firsthand experience.So，I took a gap year to pack my bags for Hong Kong，a city featuring the lively heartbeat of Cantonese culture.Buried in its busy streets and daily conversations，from casual chats to food ordering，I found myself enveloped in a linguistic wonderland.Within a few months，my Cantonese proficiency flourished，fueling a surge of confidence.
My explorations extended beyond the streets.I enrolled in formal language classes that offered professional guidance.Through hard work，I successfully completed all the courses in Cantonese Linguistics.From then on，I’ve been passionately committed to spreading the Cantonese culture，ensuring its richness reaches a wider audience.
Today，I continue my Cantonese voyage with unflagging enthusiasm.It has transformed into more than just a linguistic pursuit；it grants me a passport to sincere connections，profound insights，and heartfelt admiration for its one-of-a-kind culture.
24．What motivated the author to start his linguistic journey
A．His father’s intentional arrangement.
B．His teacher’s positive encouragement.
C．His strong interest in Chinese movies.
D．His great passion for cultural exploration.
25．Which best describes the author’s learning process of Cantonese
A．Demanding but strategic.
B．Effortless and enjoyable.
C．Challenging but creative.
D．Adventurous and eventful.
26．Why did the author head to Hong Kong during the gap year
A．To participate in a language workshop.
B．To take a bite of the diverse local food.
C．To fully comprehend the spirit of Cantonese.
D．To stay well informed about studying abroad.
27．What message does the text mainly convey
A．Education is the passport to the future.
B．Language is the road map of a culture.
C．Opportunity favors the prepared mind.
D．Success belongs to those with curiosity.
C
Britain’s got talent—but we’re still wasting it.That’s the main finding of a new report by researchers from Oxford University.Children of similar cognitive(认知的) ability have very different chances of educational success；it still depends on their parents’ economic，socio-cultural and educational resources.This contradicts a commonly held view that our education system has developed enough to give everyone a fighting chance.The researchers looked at data from groups of children born in three decades：1950s,1970s and 1990s.
They found significant evidence of a wastage of talent.Individuals with high levels of cognitive ability but with disadvantages in their social origins are unable to translate their ability into educational achievement to the same extent as their more advantaged counterparts(对照组)．The research，funded by the Nuffield Foundation，found that only about half of the difference in educational achievement between children from advantaged and disadvantaged parental backgrounds is due to differences in their cognitive ability.The other half is due to other factors(因素) associated with their backgrounds.
“If we compare the educational achievement of children born in the 1990s to those in the late 1950s and early 1970s，we see that parents’ economic resources have become a less important factor，but their socio-cultural and educational resources have grown in significance，” says Dr.Bukodi.“That means that your parents’ place in society and their own level of education still play a big part in how well you may do.”
These experts are now calling for policy-makers to acknowledge that formal qualifications are only one channel for upward mobility(流动性) for high-ability individuals of disadvantaged backgrounds.Dr.Bukodi says，“These findings show that there are limits to how far inequalities of opportunity can be reduced through educational policy alone.Changes in educational policy aren’t having the powerful effect we want.”
28．What is the main finding of the research
A．We’re wasting talent due to education system.
B．Children of similar cognitive ability have different chances of educational success.
C．Children’s cognitive ability depends on different educational resources.
D．Education system has developed enough to give children a fighting chance.
29．How did the researchers come to the conclusion
A．By making a comparison.
B．By discussing a result.
C．By giving examples.
D．By presenting reasons.
30．According to Dr.Bukodi，what affects children’s educational achievement greatly
A．Children’s cognitive ability.
B．Parents’ economic resources.
C．Educational policy.
D．Parents’ socio-cultural and educational backgrounds.
31．What is the author’s attitude towards the finding of the new report
A．Favorable. B．Objective.
C．Doubtful. D．Negative.

We all know at least one person who loves their food insanely hot.They insist that their hot wings “aren’t spicy enough unless I’m dripping with sweat.” From Latin America to Sichuan Province，chili peppers and their famous burning taste have become a worldwide sensation.But how could something that burns so hot possibly be any good for people
In a study by researchers at Marshall University in the US，scientists made the first complete description of capsaicin(辣椒素)—a chemical found in spicy chilis—and its anti-cancer properties.Although capsaicin is not normally a good medicine due to some negative properties such as its spicy flavor，the study found that there are ways to bring out its anti-cancer benefits while overcoming these negatives.
In nature，capsaicin evolved as a defense mechanism(机制) in plants to drive away unwanted animals while attracting those that could spread the seeds，such as birds which cannot taste or feel the spice.From a scientific point of view，capsaicin works by triggering(触发) a pain receptor called TRPV1，causing the body to react as if it had actually touched something hot and dangerous.Yet，this natural repellent(驱虫剂) for most animals has instead become a favorite food for many people，often called “chiliheads”．
So，what is it that attracts humans to capsaicin，chili peppers and spicy food in general？Besides its many health benefits—such as pain relief，weight loss，and body heat regulation—people love eating chili peppers precisely because it hits the pain receptors in just the right way.
As an article published by Scientific American noted：“People seem to enjoy—and actively seek out—many other sensations...the sensation of falling provided by roller coasters or skydiving，the feelings of fear and anxiety while watching horror movies，the physical pain experienced upon jumping into icy water，or even the feelings of sadness that come while watching a tearjerker.”
So，the next time you bite into a hot chili pepper，remember：it’s not just healthy，but fun too!
32．What does the underlined word “property” mean in paragraph 2
A．Tissue. B．Goal.
C．Possession. D．Quality.
33．What can we learn from the result of the study by researchers at Marshall University
A．The study describes capsaicin for the first time.
B．Capsaicin contributes to the prevention of cancer.
C．There is a chemical called capsaicin in spicy chilis.
D．The negative features of capsaicin cannot be overcome.
34．How does capsaicin benefit plants
A．It prevents birds from eating plants.
B．It causes more seeds to be produced.
C．It attracts some animals to distribute seeds.
D．It helps plants survive in hot or dangerous situations.
35．How does the author prove spicy food is fun
A．By giving an example.
B．By making a comparison.
C．By analyzing causes.
D．By conducting research.

How to Learn Several Languages at a Time
Learning a new language is a challenging and wonderfully rewarding experience.At some point，you may find yourself needing or wanting to learn several languages at the same time. 36 However，it also allows you to challenge your brain and take advantage of the similarities and differences between the languages you’re learning.
37 If you have a choice，choose to learn one language that is easier for you，and another or others that are more difficult.An easier language will be one that is similar to your native language or another language that you know，while a more difficult language will be one that is less similar.
Make one language your priority. 38 This way，at the end of your hard work，you are more likely to be skilled in at least one of your languages，rather than only knowing a small amount of each of them.
Translate between the languages you’re learning.One way to keep all the languages you are learning active in your mind is to try translating between them，rather than translating them back to your native language. 39
Add all of the languages to a language-learning app or website.Several language-learning apps and websites，such as Duolingo，Memrise，Clozemaster，Anki and Lingvist allow you to add several languages at once. 40 This way，when you are on-the-go，you have quick access to a way to study any of the languages you are trying to learn.
A．This process can be very difficult.
B．Choose languages that vary in difficulty.
C．Study the same topic in all of the languages.
D．You can use a website to find a group like this.
E．This can help you understand the languages on a deeper level.
F．It is helpful to give one of the languages the most time and attention.
G．Download an app，and then add all of your languages，if they are available on it.

(2025·安徽芜湖高二上期中)
It was a bright spring afternoon along the Maryland coast，and Jonathan Bauer，a doctor，and his 13-year-old daughter，Ava，were driving home with the windows down on the Route 90 bridge，which spanned(横跨) the shallow waters of Assawoman Bay.Suddenly，the calm was disturbed by the scream of tyres.
Not far ahead of them，a black truck was sliding from one lane(车道) to the other.To their horror，it crashed into the concrete barrier(混凝土护栏)，jumped over the car directly ahead of them，and ended up hanging over the railing(栏杆) of the bridge.Bauer stopped his car in time to avoid other vehicles.
And then another scream appeared.It came from the truck，which had come to rest on its right side.The driver’s door was pushed open and a man climbed out.He dropped to the ground and then rushed to the railing.Bauer ran up beside him.The man pointed down，saying something in Spanish.In the water was a child car seat.There was a little girl next to it，about two years old.She was frightened，floating on her back，kicking and screaming.
From around the truck，more screams from others who had seen the accident came.Things quickly went worse when the girl rolled over.Bauer waited for the truck driver to do something，but he was in shock.Maybe he was quite fresh to the rescue.
Bauer was not sure about his chances of jumping from this height into such shallow water.And were there rocks that would cause cuts？But the truck driver didn’t move.Time ticking by，taking action was a must.“Ava，call the emergency group！” Bauer shouted，ready to remove his shoes.“And stay by the car！” Bauer added.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。

M：I’m with Karina Rogers，who’s training at a top restaurant to be a chef.Karina，where did your interest in cooking come from
W：Well，both my parents prepared food in their hotel kitchen，and although I helped them a bit，I never enjoyed that much. In fact，it wasn’t until I worked for two weeks at a restaurant that I realized cooking was for me.Before that，I’d just make salads for myself.
M：And the restaurant was really pleased with you.
W：Yes，and that gave me the confidence to enter a cooking competition. I wasn’t among the winners，but the judges really liked what I made.
M：Then a top chef noticed your cooking.
W：Yes，and he gave me a Saturday job at his restaurant.My first task was to prepare a salad.No one had told me the food was for someone famous，but it seemed she really liked it，so as a result the chef offered to train me full-time at the restaurant.
M： And do you eat out in your free time
W：I don’t do that anymore.
M：Because it is expensive
W：No. On my days off，I just like eating at home.It’s a good chance to be with my parents!

When people ask about my experience of learning Cantonese，I recount a journey driven by unending curiosity and a strong desire to connect with a dynamic culture.
Growing up in a Russian family，my fascination with languages grew thanks to my father，a language expert.It’s during a cultural appreciation class in junior high that I was first introduced to the world of Hong Kong films，famous for their characteristic action-packed dramas and storytelling styles.However，what really amazed me was the uniqueness of the language，Cantonese，which sparked an urgent need within me to explore it and the rich culture behind.This marked the beginning of a thrilling linguistic journey.
Learning Cantonese posed challenges，such as unfamiliar characters，complex tones，and different grammar structures，yet I persevered.Immersed in textbooks and available online courses，I practiced the tones everyday until my pronunciation flowed naturally.Cantonese dramas and music also played a role in familiarizing me with its rhythm.
To truly grasp the essence of Cantonese，I knew that studying alone wasn’t enough—I needed firsthand experience.So，I took a gap year to pack my bags for Hong Kong，a city featuring the lively heartbeat of Cantonese culture.Buried in its busy streets and daily conversations，from casual chats to food ordering，I found myself enveloped in a linguistic wonderland.Within a few months，my Cantonese proficiency flourished，fueling a surge of confidence.
My explorations extended beyond the streets.I enrolled in formal language classes that offered professional guidance.Through hard work，I successfully completed all the courses in Cantonese Linguistics.From then on，I’ve been passionately committed to spreading the Cantonese culture，ensuring its richness reaches a wider audience.
Today，I continue my Cantonese voyage with unflagging enthusiasm.It has transformed into more than just a linguistic pursuit；it grants me a passport to sincere connections，profound insights，and heartfelt admiration for its one-of-a-kind culture.

Britain’s got talent—but we’re still wasting it.That’s the main finding of a new report by researchers from Oxford University.Children of similar cognitive(认知的) ability have very different chances of educational success；it still depends on their parents’ economic，socio-cultural and educational resources.This contradicts a commonly held view that our education system has developed enough to give everyone a fighting chance.The researchers looked at data from groups of children born in three decades：1950s,1970s and 1990s.
They found significant evidence of a wastage of talent.Individuals with high levels of cognitive ability but with disadvantages in their social origins are unable to translate their ability into educational achievement to the same extent as their more advantaged counterparts(对照组)．The research，funded by the Nuffield Foundation，found that only about half of the difference in educational achievement between children from advantaged and disadvantaged parental backgrounds is due to differences in their cognitive ability.The other half is due to other factors(因素) associated with their backgrounds.
“If we compare the educational achievement of children born in the 1990s to those in the late 1950s and early 1970s，we see that parents’ economic resources have become a less important factor，but their socio-cultural and educational resources have grown in significance，” says Dr.Bukodi.“That means that your parents’ place in society and their own level of education still play a big part in how well you may do.”
These experts are now calling for policy-makers to acknowledge that formal qualifications are only one channel for upward mobility(流动性) for high-ability individuals of disadvantaged backgrounds.Dr.Bukodi says，“These findings show that there are limits to how far inequalities of opportunity can be reduced through educational policy alone.Changes in educational policy aren’t having the powerful effect we want.”
语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了牛津大学研究人员发表了一份新报告，发现认知能力相似的儿童获得教育成功的可能性却不同，这取决于他们父母的经济实力、社会文化和教育资源。
28．What is the main finding of the research

B．Children of similar cognitive ability have different chances of educational success.
C．Children’s cognitive ability depends on different educational resources.
D．Education system has developed enough to give children a fighting chance.
答案　B

29．How did the researchers come to the conclusion
A．By making a comparison.
B．By discussing a result.
C．By giving examples.
D．By presenting reasons.
答案　A
解析　推理判断题。由第一段最后一句“The researchers looked at data from groups of children born in three decades：1950s,1970s and 1990s.”以及第二、三段可知，研究人员采用对比的方法来得出结论。故选A。
30．According to Dr.Bukodi，what affects children’s educational achievement greatly

(2024·重庆高二上期末)
We all know at least one person who loves their food insanely hot.They insist that their hot wings “aren’t spicy enough unless I’m dripping with sweat.” From Latin America to Sichuan Province，chili peppers and their famous burning taste have become a worldwide sensation.But how could something that burns so hot possibly be any good for people
In a study by researchers at Marshall University in the US，scientists made the first complete description of capsaicin(辣椒素)—a chemical found in spicy chilis—and its anti-cancer properties.Although capsaicin is not normally a good medicine due to some negative properties such as its spicy flavor，the study found that there are ways to bring out its anti-cancer benefits while overcoming these negatives.
In nature，capsaicin evolved as a defense mechanism(机制) in plants to drive away unwanted animals while attracting those that could spread the seeds，such as birds which cannot taste or feel the spice.From a scientific point of view，capsaicin works by triggering(触发) a pain receptor called TRPV1，causing the body to react as if it had actually touched something hot and dangerous.Yet，this natural repellent(驱虫剂) for most animals has instead become a favorite food for many people，often called “chiliheads”．
So，what is it that attracts humans to capsaicin，chili peppers and spicy food in general？Besides its many health benefits—such as pain relief，weight loss，and body heat regulation—people love eating chili peppers precisely because it hits the pain receptors in just the right way.
As an article published by Scientific American noted：“People seem to enjoy—and actively seek out—many other sensations...the sensation of falling provided by roller coasters or skydiving，the feelings of fear and anxiety while watching horror movies，the physical pain experienced upon jumping into icy water，or even the feelings of sadness that come while watching a tearjerker.”
So，the next time you bite into a hot chili pepper，remember：it’s not just healthy，but fun too!
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了辣椒为什么对人体有好处，以及人们为什么喜欢辣椒。
32．What does the underlined word “property” mean in paragraph 2
A．Tissue. B．Goal.
C．Possession. D．Quality.
答案　D
解析　词义猜测题。根据第二段中画线词后“Although capsaicin is not normally a good medicine due to some negative properties such as its spicy flavor...”可知，虽然辣椒素有一些负面的特性，比如辛辣的味道，但研究发现，有一些方法可以在克服这些负面影响的同时发挥其抗癌作用。由此推知，此处指辣椒素的抗癌特性，故画线词property意为“特性，性质”，和quality意思相近，故选D。
33．What can we learn from the result of the study by researchers at Marshall University
A．The study describes capsaicin for the first time.
B．Capsaicin contributes to the prevention of cancer.
C．There is a chemical called capsaicin in spicy chilis.
D．The negative features of capsaicin cannot be overcome.
答案　B
解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中“In a study by researchers at Marshall University in the US，scientists made the first complete description of capsaicin(辣椒素)—a chemical found in spicy chilis—and its anti-cancer properties.”可知，辣椒素是可以抗癌的。故选B。
34．How does capsaicin benefit plants
A．It prevents birds from eating plants.
B．It causes more seeds to be produced.
C．It attracts some animals to distribute seeds.
D．It helps plants survive in hot or dangerous situations.
答案　C
解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中“In nature，capsaicin evolved as a defense mechanism(机制) in plants to drive away unwanted animals while attracting those that could spread the seeds，such as birds which cannot taste or feel the spice.”可知，它吸引一些动物来传播种子从而使植物受益。故选C。
35．How does the author prove spicy food is fun
A．By giving an example.
B．By making a comparison.
C．By analyzing causes.
D．By conducting research.
答案　B
解析　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“many other sensations...the sensation of falling provided by roller coasters or skydiving，the feelings of fear and anxiety while watching horror movies，the physical pain experienced upon jumping into icy water，or even the feelings of sadness that come while watching a tearjerker”可知，作者通过比较来证明辣的食物是有趣的。故选B。

How to Learn Several Languages at a Time
Learning a new language is a challenging and wonderfully rewarding experience.At some point，you may find yourself needing or wanting to learn several languages at the same time. 36 However，it also allows you to challenge your brain and take advantage of the similarities and differences between the languages you’re learning.
37 If you have a choice，choose to learn one language that is easier for you，and another or others that are more difficult.An easier language will be one that is similar to your native language or another language that you know，while a more difficult language will be one that is less similar.
Make one language your priority. 38 This way，at the end of your hard work，you are more likely to be skilled in at least one of your languages，rather than only knowing a small amount of each of them.
Translate between the languages you’re learning.One way to keep all the languages you are learning active in your mind is to try translating between them，rather than translating them back to your native language. 39
Add all of the languages to a language-learning app or website.Several language-learning apps and websites，such as Duolingo，Memrise，Clozemaster，Anki and Lingvist allow you to add several languages at once. 40 This way，when you are on-the-go，you have quick access to a way to study any of the languages you are trying to learn.
A．This process can be very difficult.
B．Choose languages that vary in difficulty.
C．Study the same topic in all of the languages.
D．You can use a website to find a group like this.
E．This can help you understand the languages on a deeper level.
F．It is helpful to give one of the languages the most time and attention.
G．Download an app，and then add all of your languages，if they are available on it.

57．答案　left

It was a bright spring afternoon along the Maryland coast，and Jonathan Bauer，a doctor，and his 13-year-old daughter，Ava，were driving home with the windows down on the Route 90 bridge，which spanned(横跨) the shallow waters of Assawoman Bay.Suddenly，the calm was disturbed by the scream of tyres.
Not far ahead of them，a black truck was sliding from one lane(车道) to the other.To their horror，it crashed into the concrete barrier(混凝土护栏)，jumped over the car directly ahead of them，and ended up hanging over the railing(栏杆) of the bridge.Bauer stopped his car in time to avoid other vehicles.
And then another scream appeared.It came from the truck，which had come to rest on its right side.The driver’s door was pushed open and a man climbed out.He dropped to the ground and then rushed to the railing.Bauer ran up beside him.The man pointed down，saying something in Spanish.In the water was a child car seat.There was a little girl next to it，about two years old.She was frightened，floating on her back，kicking and screaming.
From around the truck，more screams from others who had seen the accident came.Things quickly went worse when the girl rolled over.Bauer waited for the truck driver to do something，but he was in shock.Maybe he was quite fresh to the rescue.
Bauer was not sure about his chances of jumping from this height into such shallow water.And were there rocks that would cause cuts？But the truck driver didn’t move.Time ticking by，taking action was a must.“Ava，call the emergency group！” Bauer shouted，ready to remove his shoes.“And stay by the car！” Bauer added.

参考范文
Then he climbed onto the railing.Taking a deep breath，he let go of the railing and jumped.The cold water surrounded him，but he managed to steady himself and began swimming towards the girl.As he got closer，he could see her face more clearly.She was crying，but her eyes were wide open，looking at him in fear and hope.Bauer reached out and gently took hold of her.When they broke through the surface，Bauer could hear shouts and cheers from above.
The rescue team rushed towards Bauer to take the girl from his arms.Bauer looked down at the girl.She was still crying，but her grip on him had loosened.She looked at him with wide，grateful eyes.“It’s okay，sweetie，” Bauer said，trying to comfort her.“You’re safe now.” And as he looked into her eyes，he knew that this moment，this rescue，would stay with him forever.It was a reminder of the power of love and courage，and the importance of being there for each other in times of crisis.
