第一部分 阅读理解
第一节 阅读理解（每题2分，共30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Northern Europe has stunning natural scenery and unique cultural sites. Here’s a simple guide to four top attractions you won’t want to miss.
The Little Mermaid (Copenhagen, Denmark)
This 1.2-meter-tall bronze (青铜) statue is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s famous fairy tale. It sits quietly on a rock by Langelinie Pier — and the best part It’s free to visit. To avoid crowds around this popular spot, arrive early, between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m. The ideal time to go is from April to September, when the weather is mild and snow won’t ruin your trip.
Geirangerfjord (More og Romsdal, Norway)
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it’s famous for its deep blue waters and amazing waterfalls like the Seven Sisters. The best way to see its beauty up close is a two-hour boat tour, which costs about 300 NOK per adult. June to August is the perfect time to visit: the ice melts these months, so boat tours run regularly — you won’t miss this unforgettable experience.
Skansen Open-Air Museum (Stockholm, Sweden)
If you love history and culture, go to Skansen Open-Air Museum — the world’s first open-air museum. It shows what Swedish life was like from the 18th to the 20th centuries. Inside, you can walk through old farmhouses, watch traditional crafts like weaving, and even meet gentle animals such as moose — all for free. But adults need to pay an entry fee of 180 SEK: kids under 7 get in for free. Visit from May to October, when the museum’s outdoor exhibits are fully open.
Santa Claus Village (Rovaniemi, Finland)
Located right on the Arctic Circle, this village is known as Santa Claus “official home.” Here, you can take photos with Santa (about 25 EUR per person, and reservations are recommended), send postcards with special Arctic Circle stamps, and even step across the clearly marked Arctic Circle line for a fun souvenir (纪念品). November to February is magical: the village is covered in snow, filled with a cozy Christmas feel, and you might even see the Northern Lights.
1. Which spot can visitors visit for free
A．The Little Mermaid. B．Geirangerfjord.
C．Skansen Open-Air Museum. D．Santa Claus Village.
2. What makes Santa Claus Village especially attractive in January
A．Free photos with Santa Claus. B．Postcards with special stamps.
C．Fun souvenirs made in Finland. D．Chances to see the Northern Lights.
3. What do the four attractions have in common
A．They offer free entry to all visitors. B．They have an ideal time for visiting.
C．They are related to fairy tale stories. D．They allow visitors to take boat tours.
B
Artificial intelligence has persuaded educators that we need to undertake a reform of education. Now that chatbots can speedily access information and answer complex questions, why bother memorizing historical facts or quotations Shouldn’t we instead teach kids to think critically and solve problems and leave the boring duties to computers
There’s a problem with these arguments: humans require knowledge to think creatively. Outsource (把……外包) our memory and cognition (认知) to Google and AI risks making us less intelligent and more subject to false information.
In 2000, American educator E.D. Hirsch noted in his essay: “The Internet places information at our fingertips, but using it demands existing knowledge stores.” This principle drove the UK’s 2014 curriculum reform with the aim of children achieving Multiplication Table Mastery (乘法口诀表) by age nine — not merely for calculation skills, but to build the neural (神经的) frameworks enabling complex reasoning. As former schools minister Nick Gibb stressed, “‘Google it’ effectively depends on what’s stored in long-term memory.”
“The suggestion that we should outsource our memory to ‘free up’ limited space for more creative thinking is based on a misconception (误解) — we’re likely to overestimate our intelligence, mistaking knowledge found on the Internet for our own,” writes Nicholas Carr in The Shallows. “When we start using the Web as a replacement for personal memory, skipping the inner processes of consolidation (巩固), we risk emptying our minds of their richnesses.”
Indeed, looking information up on Google often results in us not being able to recall it later — either because our brains are conditioned to think we don’t need to remember it, or because the Internet, mobile phones and social media distract our attention, or both. If students come to rely on machines not just to recall facts but to think for them, it might not just be memory that suffers: cognition and creativity could atrophy, too.
The solution lies not in rejecting technology, but in rebalancing its role. The UK’s knowledge-rich curriculum, despite disagreements, recognizes this truth: human intelligence advances when technology adds to rather than replaces learning.
4. What is the author’s concern about AI’s influence on education
A．Students avoid complex questions. B．Teachers ignore students’ creativity.
C．Teachers focus on memorizing facts. D．Students develop poor analysis and judgment.
5. What do E.D. Hirsch and Nick Gibb emphasize
A．The reduction of Internet usage. B．The importance of knowledge storage.
C．The necessity for technology improvement. D．The replacement of complex reasoning.
6. What does the underlined word “atrophy” in paragraph 5 mean
A．Decrease. B．Disappear. C．Explode. D．Develop.
7. Which of the following may the author agree
A．Limit AI to education. B．Avoid referring to AI in study.
C．Search online for solutions beforehand. D．Use technology as an assistant.
C
Save the gorilla (大猩猩)! Protect tigers! Help the giant kangaroo rats! You’ve probably heard the first two slogans but maybe not the last one. We’re often interested in supporting the protection of animals like gorillas and tigers but less concerned for creatures like rats. Are our stereotypes (刻板印象) affecting which animals we choose to protect
Researchers have studied how people view animals based on two qualities: “warmth” (how friendly we think they are) and “competence” (how capable they seem). Animals we see as companions, such as dogs and monkeys, score high in both warmth and competence. This makes us eager to protect them. Predators (捕食者) like tigers and bears are seen as competent but not very warm. While some people admire these animals, others may fear or hunt them. Animals viewed as prey (猎物), like cows and rabbits, often receive less attention, but people are prepared to actively harm those considered pests, such as rats and mice.
However, this might not be the full story. National Geographic Magazine asked their readers which animals were the most important to save. Four of the top five fit the companion or predator types-elephants, tigers, whales and polar bears. But the most popular animal to save was the bee. It seems that apart from concerns around warmth and competence, people are aware how species can affect the wider ecosystem and value bees as pollinators (传粉者).
At present, 27,000 species are becoming extinct every year. How do zoos and protection projects decide which animals to support One factor is the importance of an animal to the wider ecosystem, but this can lead to some difficult choices. It’s reported that in Australia, koalas are much less important to the ecosystem than some lesser-known animals such as woylies. However, they also suggest a solution to this issue. To conserve cute animals, such as koalas, it’s important to protect their entire habitat-and this can save a wide variety of species. It could be that many animals can be sheltered by koalas’ cuteness.
8. What’s the focus of the research
A．How human views affect animal protection efforts.
B．What qualities different types of animal species have.
C．How human activities influence wildlife populations.
D．What characteristics affect public interest in species.
9. What do we know from paragraph 2
A．Companions are more capable than others.
B．Predators are always feared and hunted.
C．Animals seen as friendly are more protected.
D．Pests are generally well-liked by people.
10. Why are bees an important species to save
A．They are popular pets among humans.
B．They rank high in warmth and competence.
C．They are the largest pollinators in ecosystems.
D．They support species variety through pollination.
11. What’s the purpose of mentioning koalas in the last paragraph
A．To highlight the popularity of certain cute animals.
B．To offer suggestions on effective koalas protection.
C．To stress the difficulty of making conservation decisions.
D．To inform readers of the importance of habitat protection.
D
Everywhere I look, there are new buildings under construction. The neighborhoods that I knew as a boy, filled with beautiful old buildings, have mostly disappeared, and in their place, modern, high-rise buildings have appeared. There is good reason for this. Residents want all the conveniences of modern living. However, how can our children understand and maintain their cultural identity if we erase so much of the physical evidence of it
The arguments for preserving historic buildings are not simply about an emotional attachment to the past. There are also good economic arguments in favour of preservation. The renovation (修缮) and preservation of historic districts can become an economic engine, drawing tourists and small businesses to the area. For example, in Dubai, the historic Al Bastikiya district draws thousands of tourists every year from all over the world. It also attracts local residents, eager to learn about their city's past.
Some have argued that historic preservation is too expensive, but many recent projects have demonstrated that this is not necessarily the case. In fact, renovation of an existing structure for adaptive reuse can cost about 40 per square metre less than even the most basic new construction, while preserving the beauty of the original building. And, although it is often claimed that old buildings have a more significant environmental footprint than new construction because they aren’t very energy efficient, architects and environmental experts maintain that the greenest building is the one that is already built. New construction almost always has a more serious environmental impact (影响) because it requires the use of all-new materials that must be transported, often over long distances, instead of recycled materials that are already on site. We recycle so many other things. We can and should recycle buildings, too.
Historic preservation is an option that opens many possibilities; demolition (拆毁), in contrast, is irreversible. Once these treasures are lost, they are lost forever, an important link in our heritage that can never be recovered.
12. What drives people to replace old buildings with new ones
A．Their dislike of old buildings. B．Their pride in cultural identity.
C．Their concern about young generations. D．Their desire for modern comforts.
13. What does the example of Al Bastikiya show
A．Historic renovation costs much money. B．Local governments support small businesses.
C．Historic preservation brings economic benefits. D．International tourism promises economic recovery.
14. What can be inferred about renovating old buildings from paragraph 3
A．It uses green materials. B．It damages architectural beauty.
C．It reduces enviromental impact. D．It worries environmental experts.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards historic preservation
A．Positive. B．Doubtful. C．Disapproving. D．Objective.

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。
I still remember the day I got sent to the head teacher’s office for the third time that month. I’d messed up again — this time, I’d disagreed with my deskmate on a problem, got into a fight, and broke his workbook in anger. As I stood outside the office, I thought it would be just like before: a loud scolding (责骂), a call to my mom, and another “troublemaker” label (标签) stuck to me. Little did I know that day would be the turning point of my school life.
Ms. Lillian, my new head teacher, stood up. Instead of shouting at me, she just said softly, “Tom, let’s have a talk.” I was prepared for the worst. But she didn’t mention my mistake at all. Instead, she asked, “I heard you’re an excellent soccer player. Do you have a game schedule I’d love to watch you play.”
I was shocked. No teacher had ever said anything good about me before. All they saw was my endless mistakes. I told her about my next match. Her eyes lit up, “Great! I’ll be there to cheer you on.” At that moment, the anger in my heart disappeared. For the first time, someone saw me as more than just a troublemaker.
Ms. Lillian kept her promise. She came to my soccer match and cheered louder than anyone else. After that, she started noticing every little progress I made: when I paid attention in class for 10 minutes, when I helped a classmate pick up books, when I handed in my homework on time. She praised me in front of the whole class every time, and that made me want to do better.
Once, I almost lost my temper (脾气) again when a classmate laughed at me. But I thought of Ms. Lillian’s smile and held back. She found me after class and said, “I saw you control your temper just now. I’ll call your mom tonight to tell her about it.”
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。
That night, my mom really received Ms. Lillian’s call.

Feeling encouraged, I decided to make more progress.
