At 76 years old, Zhang Guohui is not a man who spends his days in quiet retirement. Instead, his hands, rough
and work-worn from sixty years of labor, continue to shape wood into floating history. He is one of the last living
masters of the ancient art of building traditional Chinese sailing ships using “watertight-bulkhead” technology. This
method was so important that it was once a carefully kept secret of Chinese shipbuilders. Today, it is recognized as
a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage.
Zhang’s journey began at the young age of 16, when he first started learning at a shipyard in Quanzhou. Long
ago, Quanzhou was the starting point of the Maritime (adj. 海的) Silk Road. In those days, building a wooden ship
was a huge task that required the whole community’s help and the master’s deep knowledge of the sea. “You don’t
just follow a drawing,” Zhang explains in his local way of speaking. “You have to feel the wood, understand its
lines, and know how it will bend to the power of the waves.” The watertight-bulkhead method divides the ship’s
body into several separate parts. This was a wonderful invention of ancient engineering. If one part of the ship was
broken, it would not sink.
Today, the loud noise of motor boats has long replaced the rhythmic sound of hammers in Quanzhou Bay.
People no longer need large wooden sailing ships. However, Zhang’s love for his craft has not faded; it has only
found a new direction. He now spends his time creating beautiful, small-scale models of the very ships he once
helped build. His workshop has become a place full of maritime history, filled with careful copies of Fujian trading
ships. Each model has working doors and perfectly fitted wooden pieces. “The size has changed,” he says, carefully
painting a tiny rudder (n. 舵) , “but the heart, the skill, the spirit. It’s all the same.” For Zhang Guohui, these
models are not just objects, they are carriers of an old tradition moving into the future. They show a lifetime of hard
work dedicated to making sure that the wisdom of the past is not lost to the passing of time.
4. What do we learn about the “watertight-bulkhead” technology
A. It was a method known only to Chinese shipbuilders.
B. It is a modern technology first used in motor boats.
C. It was invented by Zhang Guohui when he was young.
D. It is still widely used to build large ships in Quanzhou today.
5. What is the advantage of the watertight-bulkhead technology
A. It is a method that anyone can easily learn.
B. It made ships much safer and less likely to sink.
C. It is a modern technology now used in motor boats.
D. It allows builders to work without following drawings.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards Zhang Guohui’s work
A. Negative B. Uninterested C. Admiring D. Doubtful
7. Which of the following words best describes Zhang Guohui’s character
A. realistic and profit-driven B. kindhearted and considerate
C. hardworking and devoted D. casual and easy-going
C
We were promised a future of easy living, where our homes would know what we need before we ask. The
refrigerator would order milk before it ran out, the temperature control would learn our preferred setting, and we
would control it all with a simple voice command. This is the attractive promise of the smart home, a central part of
our imagined high-tech future. But for many people who tried it first, the reality has been less like a science fiction
dream and more like a stress test.
The idea is exciting: connected sensors creating an energy-saving, safe, and perfectly responsive environment.
In theory, your home becomes an intelligent being, learning your daily habits and likes. You come home, and the
lights gently turn on to show a path to the kitchen, where your favorite music is already playing. The main idea is to
use technology to make life simpler, to make it smooth and natural.
However, the current reality is often broken into pieces and frustrating. Consumers find themselves dealing
with a messy collection of devices that don’t work well together. To complete a simple task automatically, one
might need to use three different apps: one for the lights, one for the locks, and another for the music. This
complexity creates a digital wall, turning a promised convenience into a boring task. This problem has been called
the “fake intelligence” of smart homes. A refrigerator with a big touchscreen might look impressive, but its main
job is still keeping food cold. When that screen is used to make shopping lists or look at the internet, but the door
seal breaks after a year, the “smart” feature becomes a useless, and often costly, extra.
The basic problem lies in a lack of common rules across the industry. Devices from different makers often
refuse to talk to each other, creating a situation where nothing connects in our living rooms. The dream of a truly
connected, intelligent home remains just out of reach, stopped by compatibility (n. 兼容性) issues and a focus on
fancy features over real problem-solving. The question is no longer just “Can we make it smart ” but “How do we
make it work together smoothly, reliably, and simply ” Until that question is answered, the smart home risks
remaining a collection of clever, but ultimately separate, gadgets, rather than the natural, life-improving companion
we were promised.
8. The underlined word “stress test” in Paragraph 1 probably means _________.
A. A scientific experiment on smart home devices.
B. A situation testing one’s patience and causes frustration.
C. A training program for learning to use new technology.
D. A medical check-up designed for people who are stressed.
9. What is the “exciting idea” of smart homes
A. Homes will become larger and more expensive.
B. Homes will no longer need electricity to function.
C. Homes will be controlled by robots instead of humans.
D. Homes will use smart sensors to learn habits and respond.
10. Why does the author mention the example of using three different apps
A. To show smart homes are convenient.
B. To prove smart devices lack flexibility.
C. To explain smart home setup procedures.
D. To illustrate the complexity of current smart homes.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. Smart Homes: The Gap Between Promise and Reality
B. Smart Home: The Reality Check
C. Smart Refrigerators: A Guide for Buyers
D. Smart Homes: A Dream Come True
D
How did life begin A team of Harvard scientists has brought us closer to an answer by creating artificial
cell-like systems that display key features of life, including metabolism, reproduction, and evolution. These
systems represent a major breakthrough in understanding how life might have emerged from simple chemistry.
The research was led by Juan Pérez-Mercader at Harvard University. To explore how life might have begun,
his team designed an experiment that copied conditions on early Earth. They placed four simple carbon-based
molecules (分子 ) in glass containers filled with water, surrounded by green LED lights. When the lights flashed
on, the mixture reacted and formed special molecules with both water-repelling (adj. 防水的) and water-attracting
parts. These molecules then came together on their own into ball-like structures. Inside these structures, the trapped
fluid developed a different chemical makeup, and the balls slowly turned into cell-like structures filled with fluid,
very similar to living cells.
What happened next was even more amazing. The structures began to release smaller structures. Some burst
open, and their parts formed new generations of cell-like structures. Importantly, the new generations were not
exactly the same as their “parents”. Some proved more likely to survive and reproduce, showing what researchers
call “a mechanism of loose heritable variation,” which is the very basis of evolution. According to Pérez-Mercader,
this is the first time anyone has created a structure that has the features of life from something completely simple at
the chemical level.
Other experts praised the work. A chemistry professor at Oxford noted that previous experiments achieved
similar results only with much more complex methods. This suggests that the path from simple chemistry to living
things may be shorter than we once thought.
Pérez-Mercader believes the experiment shows how life might have begun around 4 billion years ago. “What
we’re seeing is that you can easily start with molecules that are nothing special,” he said, “That simple system is
the best way to start this business of life.” The discovery brings science one step closer to answering the oldest
question: Where did we come from
12. What have the Harvard scientists achieved in their new study
A. They have created fully living organisms in the laboratory.
B. They have proved that life began exactly 4 billion years ago.
C. They have found the oldest fossil evidence of early life on Earth.
D. They have developed artificial systems that display key features of life.
13. According to the passage, what happened after the cell-like structures formed
A. They turned back into simple molecules again.
B. They quickly died under the LED light conditions.
C. They produced new generations with slight differences.
D. They remained completely unchanged for billions of years.
14. What can be inferred about previous attempts to create living things
A. They required more complex methods to succeed.
B. They focused only on evolution, not reproduction.
C. They were all conducted by the same research team.
D. They achieved perfect copies of living cells.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. LED lights are key to creating artificial life.
B. Scientists have created living organisms in labs.
C. The origin of life remains unknown despite research.
D. Simple chemicals can be made to show lifelike behaviors.

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。
At sixteen, Marco was the fastest kid in his school. He won every race without even breathing hard. His
bedroom wall was covered with medals, and his teachers all said the same thing: “That boy is going places.” Marco
believed them.
Then came the accident. A car ran a red light. Marco’s right leg was broken in three places. The doctors said
he would walk again, but run They weren’t sure.
The first time Marco tried to jog, he fell after ten steps. The pain was so sharp that tears streamed down his
face, not from the pain alone, but from the sound of his dream shattering. He threw his medals into a box and
pushed it under his bed.
For months, Marco refused to talk about running. When friends asked, he changed the subject. When his coach
called, he didn’t answer. He told himself he was fine. He told himself he didn’t care.
But one afternoon, his little sister Sophia found the box. She was only seven, too young to understand. “Marco,
why are these in the dark ” she asked, holding up a medal. “They’re supposed to shine.”
Marco didn’t have an answer.
The next morning, Marco limped to the track behind the school. He walked at first, then tried a slow jog. It
hurt. Everything hurt. But he kept going — one lap, then another. When he finally stopped, he was crying again,
but this time, something felt different.
He went back the next day. And the next.
Slowly, the limp began to fade. The pain became manageable. By the end of the month, Marco could run a full
mile without stopping. It wasn’t fast. It wasn’t pretty. But he was running.
One year later, Marco stood at the starting line of the regional championship. He didn’t win. He came in fifth.
But when he crossed the finish line, he raised his arms anyway. Because he knew something the other runners didn’
t: winning isn’t always about being first. Sometimes, winning is simply refusing to stop.
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。
After the race, Marco’s coach approached him with a smile.

At 76 years old, Zhang Guohui is not a man who spends his days in quiet retirement. Instead, his hands, rough
and work-worn from sixty years of labor, continue to shape wood into floating history. He is one of the last living
masters of the ancient art of building traditional Chinese sailing ships using “watertight-bulkhead” technology. This
method was so important that it was once a carefully kept secret of Chinese shipbuilders. Today, it is recognized as
a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage.
Zhang’s journey began at the young age of 16, when he first started learning at a shipyard in Quanzhou. Long
ago, Quanzhou was the starting point of the Maritime (adj. 海的) Silk Road. In those days, building a wooden ship
was a huge task that required the whole community’s help and the master’s deep knowledge of the sea. “You don’t
just follow a drawing,” Zhang explains in his local way of speaking. “You have to feel the wood, understand its
lines, and know how it will bend to the power of the waves.” The watertight-bulkhead method divides the ship’s
body into several separate parts. This was a wonderful invention of ancient engineering. If one part of the ship was
broken, it would not sink.
Today, the loud noise of motor boats has long replaced the rhythmic sound of hammers in Quanzhou Bay.
People no longer need large wooden sailing ships. However, Zhang’s love for his craft has not faded; it has only
found a new direction. He now spends his time creating beautiful, small-scale models of the very ships he once
helped build. His workshop has become a place full of maritime history, filled with careful copies of Fujian trading
ships. Each model has working doors and perfectly fitted wooden pieces. “The size has changed,” he says, carefully
painting a tiny rudder (n. 舵) , “but the heart, the skill, the spirit. It’s all the same.” For Zhang Guohui, these
models are not just objects, they are carriers of an old tradition moving into the future. They show a lifetime of hard
work dedicated to making sure that the wisdom of the past is not lost to the passing of time.
4. What do we learn about the “watertight-bulkhead” technology
A. It was a method known only to Chinese shipbuilders.
B. It is a modern technology first used in motor boats.
C. It was invented by Zhang Guohui when he was young.
D. It is still widely used to build large ships in Quanzhou today.
5. What is the advantage of the watertight-bulkhead technology
A. It is a method that anyone can easily learn.
B. It made ships much safer and less likely to sink.
C. It is a modern technology now used in motor boats.
D. It allows builders to work without following drawings.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards Zhang Guohui’s work
A. Negative B. Uninterested C. Admiring D. Doubtful
7. Which of the following words best describes Zhang Guohui’s character
A. realistic and profit-driven B. kindhearted and considerate
C. hardworking and devoted D. casual and easy-going
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. C

We were promised a future of easy living, where our homes would know what we need before we ask. The
refrigerator would order milk before it ran out, the temperature control would learn our preferred setting, and we
would control it all with a simple voice command. This is the attractive promise of the smart home, a central part of
our imagined high-tech future. But for many people who tried it first, the reality has been less like a science fiction
dream and more like a stress test.
The idea is exciting: connected sensors creating an energy-saving, safe, and perfectly responsive environment.
In theory, your home becomes an intelligent being, learning your daily habits and likes. You come home, and the
lights gently turn on to show a path to the kitchen, where your favorite music is already playing. The main idea is to
use technology to make life simpler, to make it smooth and natural.
However, the current reality is often broken into pieces and frustrating. Consumers find themselves dealing
with a messy collection of devices that don’t work well together. To complete a simple task automatically, one
might need to use three different apps: one for the lights, one for the locks, and another for the music. This
complexity creates a digital wall, turning a promised convenience into a boring task. This problem has been called
the “fake intelligence” of smart homes. A refrigerator with a big touchscreen might look impressive, but its main
job is still keeping food cold. When that screen is used to make shopping lists or look at the internet, but the door
seal breaks after a year, the “smart” feature becomes a useless, and often costly, extra.
The basic problem lies in a lack of common rules across the industry. Devices from different makers often
refuse to talk to each other, creating a situation where nothing connects in our living rooms. The dream of a truly
connected, intelligent home remains just out of reach, stopped by compatibility (n. 兼容性) issues and a focus on
fancy features over real problem-solving. The question is no longer just “Can we make it smart ” but “How do we
make it work together smoothly, reliably, and simply ” Until that question is answered, the smart home risks
remaining a collection of clever, but ultimately separate, gadgets, rather than the natural, life-improving companion
we were promised.
8. The underlined word “stress test” in Paragraph 1 probably means _________.
A. A scientific experiment on smart home devices.
B. A situation testing one’s patience and causes frustration.
C. A training program for learning to use new technology.
D. A medical check-up designed for people who are stressed.
9. What is the “exciting idea” of smart homes
A. Homes will become larger and more expensive.
B. Homes will no longer need electricity to function.
C. Homes will be controlled by robots instead of humans.
D. Homes will use smart sensors to learn habits and respond.
10. Why does the author mention the example of using three different apps
A. To show smart homes are convenient.
B. To prove smart devices lack flexibility.
C. To explain smart home setup procedures.
D. To illustrate the complexity of current smart homes.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. Smart Homes: The Gap Between Promise and Reality
B. Smart Home: The Reality Check
C. Smart Refrigerators: A Guide for Buyers
D. Smart Homes: A Dream Come True
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. A
D
How did life begin A team of Harvard scientists has brought us closer to an answer by creating artificial
cell-like systems that display key features of life, including metabolism, reproduction, and evolution. These
systems represent a major breakthrough in understanding how life might have emerged from simple chemistry.
The research was led by Juan Pérez-Mercader at Harvard University. To explore how life might have begun,
his team designed an experiment that copied conditions on early Earth. They placed four simple carbon-based
molecules (分子 ) in glass containers filled with water, surrounded by green LED lights. When the lights flashed
on, the mixture reacted and formed special molecules with both water-repelling (adj. 防水的) and water-attracting
parts. These molecules then came together on their own into ball-like structures. Inside these structures, the trapped
fluid developed a different chemical makeup, and the balls slowly turned into cell-like structures filled with fluid,
very similar to living cells.
What happened next was even more amazing. The structures began to release smaller structures. Some burst
open, and their parts formed new generations of cell-like structures. Importantly, the new generations were not
exactly the same as their “parents”. Some proved more likely to survive and reproduce, showing what researchers
call “a mechanism of loose heritable variation,” which is the very basis of evolution. According to Pérez-Mercader,
this is the first time anyone has created a structure that has the features of life from something completely simple at
the chemical level.
Other experts praised the work. A chemistry professor at Oxford noted that previous experiments achieved
similar results only with much more complex methods. This suggests that the path from simple chemistry to living
things may be shorter than we once thought.
Pérez-Mercader believes the experiment shows how life might have begun around 4 billion years ago. “What
we’re seeing is that you can easily start with molecules that are nothing special,” he said, “That simple system is
the best way to start this business of life.” The discovery brings science one step closer to answering the oldest
question: Where did we come from
12. What have the Harvard scientists achieved in their new study
A. They have created fully living organisms in the laboratory.
B. They have proved that life began exactly 4 billion years ago.
C. They have found the oldest fossil evidence of early life on Earth.
D. They have developed artificial systems that display key features of life.
13. According to the passage, what happened after the cell-like structures formed
A. They turned back into simple molecules again.
B. They quickly died under the LED light conditions.
C. They produced new generations with slight differences.
D. They remained completely unchanged for billions of years.
14. What can be inferred about previous attempts to create living things
A. They required more complex methods to succeed.
B. They focused only on evolution, not reproduction.
C. They were all conducted by the same research team.
D. They achieved perfect copies of living cells.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. LED lights are key to creating artificial life.
B. Scientists have created living organisms in labs.
C. The origin of life remains unknown despite research.
D. Simple chemicals can be made to show lifelike behaviors.

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。
At sixteen, Marco was the fastest kid in his school. He won every race without even breathing hard. His
bedroom wall was covered with medals, and his teachers all said the same thing: “That boy is going places.” Marco
believed them.
Then came the accident. A car ran a red light. Marco’s right leg was broken in three places. The doctors said
he would walk again, but run They weren’t sure.
The first time Marco tried to jog, he fell after ten steps. The pain was so sharp that tears streamed down his
face, not from the pain alone, but from the sound of his dream shattering. He threw his medals into a box and
pushed it under his bed.
For months, Marco refused to talk about running. When friends asked, he changed the subject. When his coach
called, he didn’t answer. He told himself he was fine. He told himself he didn’t care.
But one afternoon, his little sister Sophia found the box. She was only seven, too young to understand. “Marco,
why are these in the dark ” she asked, holding up a medal. “They’re supposed to shine.”
Marco didn’t have an answer.
The next morning, Marco limped to the track behind the school. He walked at first, then tried a slow jog. It
hurt. Everything hurt. But he kept going — one lap, then another. When he finally stopped, he was crying again,
but this time, something felt different.
He went back the next day. And the next.
Slowly, the limp began to fade. The pain became manageable. By the end of the month, Marco could run a full
mile without stopping. It wasn’t fast. It wasn’t pretty. But he was running.
One year later, Marco stood at the starting line of the regional championship. He didn’t win. He came in fifth.
But when he crossed the finish line, he raised his arms anyway. Because he knew something the other runners didn’
t: winning isn’t always about being first. Sometimes, winning is simply refusing to stop.
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。

fell. You got up. Day after day, you came back when it would have been easier to stay home.” Patting Marco on the
shoulder, he added in a firm voice, “That’s not just running. That’s living.” Marco nodded, words stuck in his
throat. It was precisely at this moment that he understood that the accident hadn’t taken anything from him — it
had given him something. A sense of quiet strength flooded into his heart.
That evening, Marco took the box out from under his bed. Slowly and deliberately, he opened it, running his
fingers over each medal. They felt different now — not as reminders of who he had been, but as markers of a
journey. He carried the box to Sophia’s room. Looking her in the eyes, he blurted out, “These belong to you now.”
His sister’s eyes widened. “But you earned them!” she protested. Marco smiled. “I know. And I want you to have
them — to remind you that the best medals aren’t always gold. Sometimes, they’re simply the ones you had to
fight hardest to keep.” From that moment, Sophia realized that true victory lies not in winning, but in never giving
up.
