Recently, I was talking with the mother of a student I taught nearly 15 years ago. “He still has his magazine! I know exactly where it is,” she said. It might be surprising that a young adult has kept a middle school English
assignment for over a decade, but I often hear this about my favorite activity: the magazine project.
Originally, this project was designed to solve a common problem in teaching writing: How can we fully
engage students so that they will take the time to edit, revise, and polish their work I know that letting students
choose their writing topics can improve engagement, so I created a project that asks students to choose a topic of
personal interest and spend most of a semester writing, designing, and publishing their own magazine on that topic. The combination of topic choice and a final published magazine greatly improves my students’ investment in their writing all semester long.
When I introduce the project, this big choice usually attracts students, but many don’t believe that they really do get to choose. They fire questions at me, asking if their whole magazine can be about adventure rides, or the vast mystery of space. I always assure them that they can write about whatever interests them. I can’t possibly anticipate what kinds of writing might engage every eighth grader, and giving them a free choice is the best way to do that.
Consequently, our classroom becomes lively as writers eagerly share ideas.
Twenty-five years ago, students stuck their pages together. But now we give them the option of creating an
online magazine using modern technology. This eliminates printing expenses while developing valuable computer skills. We usually schedule the final due date just before our school’s open house so that the magazines can be
第 5页/共 23页
displayed for the community.
These unique magazines make a powerful statement about what matters to our students. And every time a former student tells me they still keep their magazine, it confirms the true meaning of this project.
4. What was the students’ main problem in writing
A. Low confidence. B. Limited techniques. C. Weak motivation. D. Insufficient materials.
5. What made students highly engaged in the project
A. Chances for adventures. B. Personal choice of topics.
C. Talks with famous writers. D. Discussion of mysteries.
6. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. Academic pressure limits creativity. B. Good habits should be formed early.
C. Modern technology transforms education. D. Personal involvement creates lasting value.
7. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Innovative and supportive. B. Thoughtful and brave.
C. Energetic and competitive. D. Humble and responsible.
C
A household washing machine can generate up to 500 grams of microplastics each year, with much ending up at wastewater treatment plants and ultimately spread onto fields.
Scientists have been seeking ways to remove microplastics before they enter the environment. “Existing filter (过滤) systems, however, have serious disadvantages,” explains Dr. Leandra Hamann of the University of Bonn. “Some quickly become blocked, others do not work efficiently.”
To find a better solution, Hamann turned to biology for ideas. The team focused on fish that feed by filtering water — the result of evolution. Their gill arch (鳃弓) system forms a structure that is widest at the mouth and narrows towards the gullet (食道). The structure is covered in tiny teeth, creating a natural filter network. “During food intake, the water flowing through it is filtered, and the microplastic-free water is then released back into the environment,” explains Hamann. “However, some organisms are too big for this. Thanks to the shape, they then roll towards the gullet, where they are collected until the fish swallows, which empties the system.”
This nature-inspired design prevents blockages and traps nearly all microplastics — exactly the two key advantages needed for a washing machine microplastic filter. To build a version for washing machines, the
researchers recreated the gill arch system and tested various filter sizes and opening angles. After comparing
different structural dimensions, ultimately, the team identified a combination of parameters, which enabled the system to separate more than 99% of the microplastics without blockage in lab experiments. With no complex moving parts, the design is low-cost. Captured microplastics could be pressed inside the machine to squeeze out remaining water, with the resulting tiny plastic balls removed and thrown in the ordinary garbage.
The researchers hope companies will refine the design for potential commercial application, which could at least partially reduce microplastic spread. The need is pressing: studies suggest microplastics may pose severe
health risks, and they’ve already been found in breast milk — and even human brains.
8. What do the researchers aim to do
A. To remove microplastics completely. B. To overcome the existing drawbacks.
C. To upgrade wastewater treatment plants. D. To improve washing machine efficiency.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. What problems plastics bring to fish. B. Where some organisms are collected.
C. Why the gill arch system has tiny teeth. D. How fish trap microplastics from water.
10. What does the underlined “parameters” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Lab methods. B. Mechanical tools. C. Processed data. D. Replacement parts.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the design
A. It can end microplastics spread. B. It will pose potential health risks.
C. It will revolutionize home appliances. D. It may have application prospects.
D
“I just need you to validate (认可) my feelings.” It’s a phrase constantly heard · — and it reveals something fascinating about our cultural moment. Validation has become the currency of care, the thing we believe we need most from others. But what if the deepest human need is to know we matter — regardless of whether others see things our way
Validation came into psychology as a corrective tool. In the mid-20th century, Carl Rogers advocated
empathetic listening and unconditional positive regard, reacting against then mainstream practice, which often
interpreted, corrected, or reframed clients’ experiences. To him, validation meant: your feelings exist, they make sense within your internal world, and they deserve to be heard.
However, as psychological language migrated into (融入) popular culture, validation gradually detached from its clinical roots. It changed into a broader moral expectation: if I feel something, others should validate it. This
shift has had profound consequences and validation becomes an exhausting test, a relational chore, a skill to perform.
In fact, what most of us are really looking for when we fish for validation is being valued. Being valued does not depend on moment-to-moment agreement, nor does it require constant confirmation. Being valued means being seen as a whole person and accepted regardless of the experience one is having.
When someone is valued, they can be corrected without being devalued; they can be disagreed with without feeling rejected. A parent who values their child can say, “I love you, and I’m not buying you that toy.” Validation may ease an emotional state, but being valued shapes the self. Validation can be spoken; value is felt.
The exit from endless validation-seeking is clear: learn to distinguish between having emotions and being
defined. A mature sense of worth comes from internalized experiences of being valued: by others first, and
eventually by yourself. It grows when you can reflect on your emotions, differentiate past from present, and remain solid even when your perceptions are challenged. This is what allows both connection and growth.
12. Why did Carl Rogers stand for validation
A. To follow mainstream opinion. B. To correct patients’ conclusions.
C. To make validation a destination. D. To value clients’ inner experience.
13. What does the underlined “this shift” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The unwillingness to reflect. B. The fear of moral expectation.
C. The enthusiasm for popular culture. D. The strong desire for full agreement.
14. What does the author agree with about being valued
A. It helps construct self-concept. B. It provides constant agreement.
·
C. It offers psychological security. D. It avoids various forms of correction.
15. What enables people’s connection and growth
A. The constant challenge of validation. B. The pursuit of a realistic sense of self.
C. A rejection of internalized experiences. D. A changeable and questioning mindset.
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
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。
William Shakespeare may have written that “all the world’s a stage”, but sadly theaters witness a decline in school visits due to budget pressures. ____16____
The most obvious benefit is academic. Students watching a live play outperform those seeing the same play as a film adaptation on knowledge of content and vocabulary. ____17____ When seeing it brought to life, they can
build a thorough understanding in discussing the staging and interpretations of stage directions.
Live theater also teaches how to develop relationships. People’s heart rates synchronize (同步) in a theater audience. This is a behavior that has been shown to enhance social bonding. ____18____ In fact, the common heightened emotion of watching a play also teaches students that it’s ok to feel and express emotions such as
sadness.
____19____ Schools really welcome using theater and plays to open up difficult discussions where students can explore diverse perspectives and accept others with an open mind. As a result, students are more likely to
accept statements such as “I think people can have different opinions about the same thing”.
Finally, theater helps open students’ eyes up to the range of jobs available within the industry. ____20____ There are many backstage roles, which often don’t become obvious until you experience a live performance.
Given these significant benefits — academic, emotional, social, and occupational — schools should guarantee that students never miss outon these transformative experiences.
A. Plays don’t just require actors.
B. Live theater makes class discussion intolerable.
C. The actual journey to the theater also boosts social tolerance.
D. A synchronized audience is perfect for building social tolerance.
E. The shared experience of something moving helps people connect.
F. Yet, live theater experiences remain vital for students’ development.
G. For those studying English plays, a text of a play is merely a blueprint.

Then the kids grew up and ____24____ home. My daughter volunteered in Bulgaria, and my son was away for college. Realizing it would be my first birthday without them, I began to ____25____ them.
On my birthday morning, I was somewhat ____26____ to find two pieces of mail, one from each of them. I was eager to see what kind of birthday ____27____ they had for me.
I opened my daughter’s envelope first, and caught my breath as a bright red leaf ____28____. Stuck to the leaf was a post-it note. I read it, unable to contain my ____29____. “Dad, this is a Bulgarian leaf. The residents helped me ____30____ your tradition. Don’t forget, I’m still part of our family.” My son’s envelope had a golden leaf in it. ____31____ for him, there was no note. Yet I could ____32____ him simply putting a leaf in an envelope, knowing I would understand.
That morning I finally understood family traditions: security, ____33____, and an identity larger than themselves. They are the ____34____ that holds families together. Since that day, I have never doubted the ____35____ and meaning of valued family traditions.

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。
“1, 2, 3, FIRE DRAGON!” I shouted, my voice cutting through the sweat-filled air as our team followed the call. But beneath the surface of our harmonized cheers, a gap was growing.
We were preparing for the Chinese Cultural Evening (CCE), our biggest performance of the year, and the
pressure hung heavy over us like a storm cloud. Two-hour practices were like endless marathons: holding the
dragon’s bamboo spine (脊椎) until our hands bled, bending our bodies to follow the dragon head’s lead until our muscles screamed, with pains on our knees and exhaustion in our bones. Nine of us — those inside the dragon’s body — pushed each other harder, perfecting every movement, while the tenth member, Emma, who held the
pearl (宝珠), now stood off to the side.
The pearl was supposed to be the dragon’s guiding light — the force that guided the dragon forward,
symbolizing wisdom and purpose. But Emma, once eager to lead our dance, now stayed away from the group
during practices, her movements slow, her eyes locked on the floor. She thought holding the pearl was not as
important as being part of the dragon body. The conflict worsened when, during a practice for a key trick —
where the dragon was supposed to “follow” the pearl in a graceful movement — Emma’s slow, unenthusiastic
waves upset the entire team. The dragon head fell, the body fell apart, and the tail hit a pile of chairs, making all the
decorations crash loudly onto the floor.
“Emma, can you please focus and keep up ” Jake, our dragon head, shouted, his voice sharp with frustration. “We’re not here to waste time — this is CCE, not a casual practice!” Emma’s face turned red, and she held the
pearl tighter. The rest of the team whispered in agreement, their glances fixed between Emma and me, waiting for me to take charge.
As team leader, I felt a knot (结) in my stomach: I could have scolded Emma, demanded she do better, but that would only increase our tension.
注意：
（ 1 ）续写词数应为 150 左右；
（ 2 ）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
I called a break, determined to bring us closer together.

Recently, I was talking with the mother of a student I taught nearly 15 years ago. “He still has his magazine! I know exactly where it is,” she said. It might be surprising that a young adult has kept a middle school English
assignment for over a decade, but I often hear this about my favorite activity: the magazine project.
Originally, this project was designed to solve a common problem in teaching writing: How can we fully
engage students so that they will take the time to edit, revise, and polish their work I know that letting students
choose their writing topics can improve engagement, so I created a project that asks students to choose a topic of
personal interest and spend most of a semester writing, designing, and publishing their own magazine on that topic. The combination of topic choice and a final published magazine greatly improves my students’ investment in their writing all semester long.
When I introduce the project, this big choice usually attracts students, but many don’t believe that they really do get to choose. They fire questions at me, asking if their whole magazine can be about adventure rides, or the vast mystery of space. I always assure them that they can write about whatever interests them. I can’t possibly anticipate what kinds of writing might engage every eighth grader, and giving them a free choice is the best way to do that.
Consequently, our classroom becomes lively as writers eagerly share ideas.
Twenty-five years ago, students stuck their pages together. But now we give them the option of creating an
online magazine using modern technology. This eliminates printing expenses while developing valuable computer skills. We usually schedule the final due date just before our school’s open house so that the magazines can be

displayed for the community.
These unique magazines make a powerful statement about what matters to our students. And every time a former student tells me they still keep their magazine, it confirms the true meaning of this project.
4. What was the students’ main problem in writing
A. Low confidence. B. Limited techniques. C. Weak motivation. D. Insufficient materials.
5. What made students highly engaged in the project
A. Chances for adventures. B. Personal choice of topics.
C. Talks with famous writers. D. Discussion of mysteries.
6. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. Academic pressure limits creativity. B. Good habits should be formed early.
C. Modern technology transforms education. D. Personal involvement creates lasting value.
7. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Innovative and supportive. B. Thoughtful and brave.
C. Energetic and competitive. D. Humble and responsible.

A household washing machine can generate up to 500 grams of microplastics each year, with much ending up at wastewater treatment plants and ultimately spread onto fields.
Scientists have been seeking ways to remove microplastics before they enter the environment. “Existing filter (过滤) systems, however, have serious disadvantages,” explains Dr. Leandra Hamann of the University of Bonn. “Some quickly become blocked, others do not work efficiently.”
To find a better solution, Hamann turned to biology for ideas. The team focused on fish that feed by filtering water — the result of evolution. Their gill arch (鳃弓) system forms a structure that is widest at the mouth and narrows towards the gullet (食道). The structure is covered in tiny teeth, creating a natural filter network. “During food intake, the water flowing through it is filtered, and the microplastic-free water is then released back into the environment,” explains Hamann. “However, some organisms are too big for this. Thanks to the shape, they then roll towards the gullet, where they are collected until the fish swallows, which empties the system.”
This nature-inspired design prevents blockages and traps nearly all microplastics — exactly the two key advantages needed for a washing machine microplastic filter. To build a version for washing machines, the
researchers recreated the gill arch system and tested various filter sizes and opening angles. After comparing
different structural dimensions, ultimately, the team identified a combination of parameters, which enabled the system to separate more than 99% of the microplastics without blockage in lab experiments. With no complex moving parts, the design is low-cost. Captured microplastics could be pressed inside the machine to squeeze out remaining water, with the resulting tiny plastic balls removed and thrown in the ordinary garbage.
The researchers hope companies will refine the design for potential commercial application, which could at least partially reduce microplastic spread. The need is pressing: studies suggest microplastics may pose severe
health risks, and they’ve already been found in breast milk — and even human brains.
8. What do the researchers aim to do
A. To remove microplastics completely. B. To overcome the existing drawbacks.
C. To upgrade wastewater treatment plants. D. To improve washing machine efficiency.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. What problems plastics bring to fish. B. Where some organisms are collected.
C. Why the gill arch system has tiny teeth. D. How fish trap microplastics from water.
10. What does the underlined “parameters” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Lab methods. B. Mechanical tools. C. Processed data. D. Replacement parts.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the design
A. It can end microplastics spread. B. It will pose potential health risks.
C. It will revolutionize home appliances. D. It may have application prospects.

“I just need you to validate (认可) my feelings.” It’s a phrase constantly heard · — and it reveals something fascinating about our cultural moment. Validation has become the currency of care, the thing we believe we need most from others. But what if the deepest human need is to know we matter — regardless of whether others see things our way
Validation came into psychology as a corrective tool. In the mid-20th century, Carl Rogers advocated
empathetic listening and unconditional positive regard, reacting against then mainstream practice, which often
interpreted, corrected, or reframed clients’ experiences. To him, validation meant: your feelings exist, they make sense within your internal world, and they deserve to be heard.
However, as psychological language migrated into (融入) popular culture, validation gradually detached from its clinical roots. It changed into a broader moral expectation: if I feel something, others should validate it. This
shift has had profound consequences and validation becomes an exhausting test, a relational chore, a skill to perform.
In fact, what most of us are really looking for when we fish for validation is being valued. Being valued does not depend on moment-to-moment agreement, nor does it require constant confirmation. Being valued means being seen as a whole person and accepted regardless of the experience one is having.
When someone is valued, they can be corrected without being devalued; they can be disagreed with without feeling rejected. A parent who values their child can say, “I love you, and I’m not buying you that toy.” Validation may ease an emotional state, but being valued shapes the self. Validation can be spoken; value is felt.
The exit from endless validation-seeking is clear: learn to distinguish between having emotions and being
defined. A mature sense of worth comes from internalized experiences of being valued: by others first, and
eventually by yourself. It grows when you can reflect on your emotions, differentiate past from present, and remain solid even when your perceptions are challenged. This is what allows both connection and growth.
12. Why did Carl Rogers stand for validation
A. To follow mainstream opinion. B. To correct patients’ conclusions.
C. To make validation a destination. D. To value clients’ inner experience.
13. What does the underlined “this shift” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The unwillingness to reflect. B. The fear of moral expectation.
C. The enthusiasm for popular culture. D. The strong desire for full agreement.
14. What does the author agree with about being valued
A. It helps construct self-concept. B. It provides constant agreement.
·
C. It offers psychological security. D. It avoids various forms of correction.
15. What enables people’s connection and growth
A. The constant challenge of validation. B. The pursuit of a realistic sense of self.
C. A rejection of internalized experiences. D. A changeable and questioning mindset.

sadness.
____19____ Schools really welcome using theater and plays to open up difficult discussions where students can explore diverse perspectives and accept others with an open mind. As a result, students are more likely to
accept statements such as “I think people can have different opinions about the same thing”.
Finally, theater helps open students’ eyes up to the range of jobs available within the industry. ____20____ There are many backstage roles, which often don’t become obvious until you experience a live performance.

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。
“1, 2, 3, FIRE DRAGON!” I shouted, my voice cutting through the sweat-filled air as our team followed the call. But beneath the surface of our harmonized cheers, a gap was growing.
We were preparing for the Chinese Cultural Evening (CCE), our biggest performance of the year, and the
pressure hung heavy over us like a storm cloud. Two-hour practices were like endless marathons: holding the
dragon’s bamboo spine (脊椎) until our hands bled, bending our bodies to follow the dragon head’s lead until our muscles screamed, with pains on our knees and exhaustion in our bones. Nine of us — those inside the dragon’s body — pushed each other harder, perfecting every movement, while the tenth member, Emma, who held the
pearl (宝珠), now stood off to the side.
The pearl was supposed to be the dragon’s guiding light — the force that guided the dragon forward,
symbolizing wisdom and purpose. But Emma, once eager to lead our dance, now stayed away from the group
during practices, her movements slow, her eyes locked on the floor. She thought holding the pearl was not as
important as being part of the dragon body. The conflict worsened when, during a practice for a key trick —
where the dragon was supposed to “follow” the pearl in a graceful movement — Emma’s slow, unenthusiastic
waves upset the entire team. The dragon head fell, the body fell apart, and the tail hit a pile of chairs, making all the
decorations crash loudly onto the floor.
“Emma, can you please focus and keep up ” Jake, our dragon head, shouted, his voice sharp with frustration. “We’re not here to waste time — this is CCE, not a casual practice!” Emma’s face turned red, and she held the
pearl tighter. The rest of the team whispered in agreement, their glances fixed between Emma and me, waiting for me to take charge.
As team leader, I felt a knot (结) in my stomach: I could have scolded Emma, demanded she do better, but that would only increase our tension.
注意：
（ 1 ）续写词数应为 150 左右；
（ 2 ）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
I called a break, determined to bring us closer together.
___________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________
With a new sense of unity, the atmosphere of our practice changed.
【答案】 I called a break, determined to bring us closer together. I pulled Emma aside gently and asked what was really bothering her. Hesitantly, she poured out her feelings, saying she felt left out and thought holding the pearl was trivial compared to the dragon body members. I comforted her patiently and explained that the pearl was the soul of the dragon dance. Without its guidance, the whole performance would lose its charm and meaning. Every role in the team was equally important and irreplaceable.
With a new sense of unity, the atmosphere of our practice changed. Cheered up and motivated, Emma devoted herself to practice wholeheartedly, moving gracefully and confidently to lead the dragon. Other teammates also stopped complaining and began to encourage and cooperate with each other willingly. We practiced in perfect
harmony, polishing every movement together. On the night of CCE, our dragon dance turned out a great hit. We all realized only mutual understanding and teamwork could lead us to success.
