一、阅读理解
第一节 阅读单选
A
When we talk about generations, one generation stands out more than any else, Generation Alpha, or Gen Alpha. They are kids who were born from 2010 onwards and the total number of them had been 2.2 billion by 2025. Unlike their parents Gen Y, Gen Alpha are the first generation growing up in the environment where iPads, AI and online classrooms are completely normal. Here are the data about them.
ASPECT GEN ALPHA OVERVIEW
Tech Usage 65% use tablets/smartphones daily; 50%use voice assistants
Education 70% adopt a blended (融合的) method of online and offline learning
Social Media 40% of kids aged 8 to 11 have a social media presence
Entertainment 70% of screen time is on social media platforms
While Gen Alpha are still young, they are pushing their parents to try new things. A report released by public relations firm DKC in July, 2025 said parents were having new experiences thanks to the influence of their Gen Alpha kids. For example, 40% of the parents surveyed said they had signed up for a subscription service at their kid’s suggestion. (Find more examples from the survey in the bar chart below.)
Trying different foods
Traveling to different vacation destinations
Using new beauty products
Watching different sports
Paying for premium subscriptions
Buying items during drops
DATA: DKC GEN ALPHA REPORT 2025
So, when we look at Gen Alpha, it is pretty clear that they are not just a typical group of kids growing up; they are literally the future of our world. They are the most digital and possibly the most powerful generation we have ever seen. Gen Alpha will surely change education, technology, business and culture itself. While it is still early days, one thing worth anticipating is that instead of just adapting to the world they inherit (继承), they will be more and more influential in shaping the future of the world.
1. What is the percentage of Gen Alpha who study in a mixed way according to the table
A．40%. B．50%. C．65%. D．70%.
2. In which aspect do Gen Alpha impact on their parents most according to the chart
A．Trying foods. B．Buying items during drops.
C．Watching sports. D．Choosing holiday destinations.
3. What is the purpose of the passage
A．To display characteristics of a new generation.
B．To describe an economic trend of consumption.
C．To clarify the gap between Gen Alpha and Gen Y.
D．To introduce a technology-related education system.

Every time I walk into the library and pick out yet another great book, I cannot help but remember how it all started. When I was little, I loved books mostly because of their beautiful illustrations, like animals, children, landscapes, and so on. All this changed when my aunt Kate moved in with us.
Previously, my mom would pick a book and explain all the illustrations in it. My aunt on the other hand would passionately read the story to me, which ignited (点燃) my love of books and language.
Even when I was old enough to read by myself, she still kept track of what I read and sometimes made a few suggestions. When I was eight and thought it was time for me to read my first thousand-page novel, all she did was smile. The fact was that from the time my aunt first satisfied my thirst for a well-written book, I started a journey to explore the beauty of language.
However, unknown to me then was the fact that my interest in her reading helped her realize her dream of being a children’s book writer. Now she has over a dozen children’s books under her authorship.
I have changed my career choice a few times in the course of my life — a novelist, journalist, and script (剧本) writer. It does not matter what I end up doing, but my love for language will have to be reflected in my career path.
My aunt used to tell me, “Language is like a tree. While its roots dig for the goodness, it is the leaves that are bathed in it.” I have decided to keep digging and I am sure the goodness will be reflected in my life.

We’ve all heard that ostriches (鸵鸟) bury their heads in the sand when danger approaches. While untrue for the ostriches, it mirrors a common human behavior called “information avoidance” — the active choice to turn away from the freely available information highly relevant to ourselves. But why do we change from naturally curious children into selective information avoiders
A 2025 study titled “Becoming an Ostrich” explored this. Researchers had children aged 5 to 10 play a game where researchers designed two candy distribution schemes (方案): equal shares for each, or one large share and one small share. Most children chose the latter and claimed the large share. Then, researchers asked whether they would like to know how many candies were left for their partner. The result was interesting. Younger children showed strong curiosity, actively seeking their partner’s information. The older children, however, increasingly chose to avoid it.
Researchers explained as children grow older, they become more concerned with feeling at ease — even if their actions might not be moral. By avoiding their partner’s information, they tend to keep a sense of fairness, or at least appearing fair. This strategy makes it easier to act in satisfying personal interests without feeling guilty. They note that adults routinely employ the same approach in various real-life situations.
Yet avoidance has long-term costs. Skipping health screenings may ease anxiety now, but can risk serious health issues later. Avoiding tough conversations may prevent short term conflict, but will likely trap people in unsatisfying relationships. “By repeatedly avoiding opposing views,” researchers warn, “we build avoidance habits that can harden into rigid thinking patterns over time.”
It’s no wonder researchers refer to this as a fundamental human contradiction: we start out in life as curious explorers, eager as possible to absorb whatever knowledge we can. Yet, somewhere along the way, we learn to stick our heads in the sand like an ostrich. This comfortable escape, nevertheless, can shape our choices and determine how our lives unfold. Recognizing this is the first step toward reclaiming the courageous curiosity that defines our earliest years.
8. How does the author introduce “information avoidance” in Paragraph 1
A．By using a metaphor. B．By offering statistics.
C．By showing an argument. D．By giving an example.
9. Why did the older children avoid their partner’s information
A．To maintain a nice self-image.
B．To safeguard others’ interests.
C．To sustain their sense of guilt.
D．To obey the rules of the game.
10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．The consequences of avoidance actions.
B．The ways of forming thinking patterns.
C．The reasons of ignoring opposing views.
D．The health costs of our avoidance habits.
11. What can be a suitable title of the text
A．Does avoidance bring true happiness
B．Should we bury our heads like an ostrich
C．Can we shape our childhood curiosity
D．Is avoidance a path to greater curiosity
D
When it comes to cooling the planet, tropical forests serve as “carbon sinks” — their trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. Now, a new study finds one Australian rainforest is doing the opposite.
The research, published in Nature, analyzed data from wet tropical rainforests in Australia, which scientists had tracked for nearly 50 years. By examining woody biomass from the rainforest, which typically holds a large amount of carbon, researchers found the forest is releasing more carbon than it absorbs, and this switch happened about 25 years ago.
Since trees release stored carbon back into the atmosphere when they die and break down, this shift indicates that trees in this Australian rainforest are dying faster than they were decades ago, said lead author Hannah Carle, a forest ecosystem researcher at Western Sydney University. Drier air, higher temperatures and water shortages might all play a role. This is the first rainforest recorded as switching from a carbon sink to a carbon source, and Carle added the phenomenon could reflect a declining ecosystem in Australian wet rainforests overall.
“The wet tropics in Australia occupy a bit of a warmer, drier climate space than tropical forests on other continents, thus potentially serving as an analog for what tropical forests will experience in other parts of the world,” said Carle. Previous research suggested that tropical rainforests increase their capacity for carbon storage in response to consistently increasing CO2 in the atmosphere. This half-century of data challenges that.
Raphael Trouve, who researches forest dynamics at the University of Melbourne in Australia and was not involved in the study, told The Guardian that data sets like this one can help track changes in the climate and environment. “It allows us to put the theory up against reality and better understand how these systems work.”
12. Which aspect of the Australian rainforest does the research focus on
A．The makeup of woody biomass. B．The effects on climate change.
C．The level of carbon concentration. D．The change in carbon balance.
13. What does the shift in paragraph 3 show
A．Rising tree death rates. B．Stable weather patterns.
C．Modest tropical rainfall. D．Instant ecosystem collapse
14. What does the underlined word “analog” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Different model. B．Sustainable system.
C．Similar example. D．Historical background.
15. How does Raphael Trouve view these long-term data sets
A．They provide insights into the truth. B．They offer solutions to climate change.
C．They are consistent with popular beliefs. D．They are independent of historical data.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了社交焦虑的定义、成因、影响以及应对方法。
Social anxiety is more than just occasional shyness — it is a persistent and intense fear of being judged or criticized in social situations. 16 While it is normal to feel nervous before a speech, social anxiety can make daily activities — such as speaking in class, or attending gatherings — extremely upsetting.
Researchers are learning that anxiety disorders run in families, and that they have a biological basis. Anxiety disorders typically develop from a complex set of risk factors, including genetics, brain chemistry, personality, and life experiences. Although social anxiety is highly treatable, only about one-third of those affected seek help. 17
There are practical ways to cope with social anxiety. One effective approach is to face fears gradually. Start with less challenging social tasks — such as greeting a classmate — and slowly progress to more difficult ones, like giving a short presentation. 18 They can shift attention away from yourself and keep the conversation flowing smoothly.
19 But the truth is that those opinions of others have no reflection on your worth or talents. Social anxiety treatment includes learning to be flawed (有缺陷的), while at the same time rejecting the need for approval from external sources. Consistently overestimating how much and how badly others think of you only causes you to be more depressed.
Rather than criticizing yourself after each social interaction, reward yourself instead. 20 You deserve the praise, and you will be more motivated to do it again if there are some self-high-fives or frozen yogurts on the back end.
A．Positive self-talk is another helpful tool.
B．Social anxiety is tied to feelings of being judged.
C．Left unaddressed, it may lead to loneliness or depression.
D．To prepare some open-ended questions also makes sense.
E．Being a perfectionist is fine in rocket science, but not in real life.
F．Individuals with this condition often imagine things going wrong in interactions.
G．Whether you attended a party or started a conversation, acknowledge your effort.

三、语法填空
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Not long ago, traveling in China meant racing against the clock. Overnight trains, sunrise hikes, and five scenic spots before lunch 36 (regard) as badges (勋章) of honor. Today, that mindset is being quietly overturned.
Across China, “slow travel” is emerging as a defining trend, particularly among Gen Z. Instead of using every hour 37 the full, travelers are choosing fewer destinations, longer 38 (stay) and experiences that emphasize immersion over mileage.
According to a 2025 survey, 55.3 percent of young respondents said they now prefer “immersive slow travel”. 39 shift is visible in both behavior and business. Once-popular “special-forces-style tourism” — 40 travelers rush through cities to maximize check-ins — has given way to 41 social media jokingly calls “low-consumption travel”. The idea is simple: minimal physical strain, maximum 42 (emotion) return.
Online data shows that searches for “gentle adventures” rocket in 2025,with interest in low-impact rafting up 135 percent, slower, 43 (calm) bungee experiences up 65 percent, and “elevator-assisted mountain climbing” up more than 80 percent.
These are not just internet jokes. Operators have redesigned attractions to match the new pace. On Foshan’s Xiqiao Mountain, visitors can try a modified bungee jump that 44 (lower) participants gently instead of dropping them at full speed . In river valleys,“lying-flat rafting” lets travelers float downstream under blue skies, 45 (do) little more than drift and daydreaming.
In slowing down, young Chinese travelers are redefining what it means to go somewhere.

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。
Ten-year-old Tom always felt lonely. His parents were always occupied with work. They left home early in the morning and came back late at night. Tom often ate dinner alone and went to bed without a goodnight kiss. For him, there were no family games, no city tours, no weekend outings.
One day, Tom's parents brought home a gift—a smart watch. "This watch has a special friend inside,” Mom said with a smile. "Her name is Ling. She can talk to you, answer your questions, and even tell you stories.” A wave of anticipation swept over Tom as he put on the watch and pressed the button. A gentle voice came out, "Hello, Tom! I'm Ling. Nice to meet you!” Tom's eyes lit up. He had never received such an interesting gift before.
From that day on, Ling became Tom's closest companion. Every morning, Ling would say, "Good morning, Tom! Have a great day at school!” Whenever Tom encountered difficulties with his homework, Ling would patiently provide thorough explanations. After Tom got into bed, Ling would tell his favorite tales about brave knights and magical lands. Sometimes, when Tom felt scared of the dark, Ling would sing softly to comfort him. To Tom, Ling was more than a voice; she was family.
His parents noticed Tom's change. "See Our little boy seems much happier now,” Dad said one evening. Mom agreed, "The watch really helps,” relieved. They thought their son was no longer lonely. What they didn't know was that sometimes, after Ling had finished her stories, Tom would lie awake in the darkness, listening to the silence that filled the room. He loved Ling, but he couldn't help thinking: if only Mom and Dad were here.
One afternoon after school, Tom tripped and fell on the way home. The watch hit a rock with a loud crack. When Tom picked it up, the screen was dark. He pressed the button again and again, but nothing appeared. "Ling Ling, are you there ” he called desperately. There was no reply.注意：
(1)续写词数应为 150 左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Tom had no choice but to turn to his parents for help.

Dear Terry,
I’m writing to introduce two optional PE courses for exchange students.
Chinese Wushu focuses on traditional martial arts. It helps build body strength and lets you experience Chinese culture. Table Tennis is light and easy to learn, suitable for those who love fast-paced competitive sports.
If you’re interested in traditional culture, choose Wushu. If you prefer relaxing and quick games, Table Tennis is a better choice.
Yours,
Li Hua
47.读后续写
Tom had no choice but to turn to his parents for help. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he held the broken watch tightly, telling them Ling wouldn’t respond at all. His parents tried repairing it but failed. Seeing Tom’s deep sadness, they felt a sharp sense of guilt. Tom whispered softly that though Ling accompanied him, he still longed for their company instead of a machine.
At that moment, both Mom and Dad saw clearly what they had missed. They realized work never should have taken up all their time, ignoring their lonely son. From then on, they arranged spare time every day to chat and play with Tom. On weekends, they took him on short trips together. Tom gradually felt true warmth from his family, no longer relying only on the smart watch to drive away loneliness.
