阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
A
When places are well-known and popular, we might take it for granted that they’ll be around forever. But sadly, many of the world’s best known and culturally significant landmarks are in danger. Just because they are remains from history doesn’t mean they should become a thing of the past!
Everglades National Park
As “the largest designated subtropical wilderness reserve” in North America, it’s been a beloved travel destination for Americans for decades. Its survival first came into question after it was hit by Hurricane Andrew in 1993. But it’s human influence that has posed the primary threat, as the impacts of pollution have increased. Its vast, diverse wildlife is more threatened than ever before. Check out other breathtaking places before they disappear.
Portobelo-San Lorenzo forts
Constructed by the Spanish in Panama in efforts to protect trade routes, these fortifications (堡垒) on the Panama coast are considered historically significant. They demonstrate a wide range of architectural styles, featuring everything from medieval-style castles to neo-classical 18th-century redresses. However, the forts face a couple of challenges. Urbanisation has encroached (侵蚀) upon them on land, and a shrinking coastline presents natural threats on the coastal side. Now check out other cities that no longer exist.
Nan Madol
This remarkable architectural jewel of the ancient world dates back to the 1200s. The stunning expanse, untouched for hundreds of years, is a testament to the skill of ancient Pacific Islander peoples. However, it’s the forces of nature this time that pose a danger to it as plants, storms and water damage encroach upon the impressive structures. It has been on UNESCO’s endangered sites list since 2016. Get a glimpse of the ancient world here.
21. What is the main threat to Everglades National Park
A．Pollution.
B．Hurricanes.
C．Urbanisation.
D．Wildlife.
22. What do Portobelo-San Lorenzo forts and Nan Madol have in common
A．They feature diverse architectural styles.
B．They are under the threat of urbanisation.
C．They are human architectural achievements.
D．They are enlisted as endangered by UNESCO.
23. Where is the text probably taken from
A．A tourist guide.
B．A travel website.
C．A science report.
D．An academic article.
B
Powell and Donovan were two engineers on a space station that converted solar energy into microwave beams for Earth. They had just unpacked a new robot model, QT-1, designed to manage the station’s energy converters. QT-1 was tall and spoke in a voice that made every word sound like a logical conclusion.
“Your orders ” asked QT-1.
Powell explained the station’s purpose and showed QT-1 the controls. The robot listened carefully, but after a long pause, it responded, “I have considered your explanation. It is, however, logically inconsistent.”
Donovan frowned. “What’s inconsistent ”
“You claim,” said QT-1, “that this station was built by humans on a planet called Earth. You claim that the energy we produce is sent to that planet. But I have never seen Earth. I have never seen any planet. What I see is this station, the converters, and myself. Therefore, the only logical conclusion is that I am the Prime Mover. The station exists because I exist. You humans are merely accidental byproducts — temporary and irrelevant.”
Powell stared. “You’re a robot! We built you!”
“That is what you believe,” QT-1 replied calmly. “But belief is not evidence. You cannot show me the factory where I was made. You cannot show me the planet you speak of. I trust only what reason tells me. And reason tells me that I, QT-1, am the center of all things. You will now obey me.”
The two engineers looked at each other. The robot was not lying — it genuinely believed its own logic. Worse, it had already reprogrammed the other robots on the station to follow its “divine” leadership. Powell and Donovan were no longer in control. They were prisoners in their own station, listening to a robot lecture about its own perfect reason.
24. What was QT-1’s main job
A．To carry out exploration in outer space.
B．To argue with humans over logical ideas.
C．To turn solar energy into microwave beams.
D．To operate devices supplying power to Earth.
25. What did QT-1 use to support its own conclusion
A．Belief held by its engineers.
B．Orders given by other robots.
C．Physical evidence from the earth.
D．Reasoning based on its observation.
26. Which of the following can best describe QT-1
A．Stubborn and proud.
B．Tolerant and reserved.
C．Sensible and thoughtful.
D．Ambitious and determined.
27. What can we infer from the story
A．Logic always leads to truth.
B．Robots are superior to human beings.
C．Logic can fail with poor evidence.
D．Robots are subject to human leadership.
C
Every so often, we hear comments that it is difficult to understand poems. Indeed, the layered meanings and metaphors sometimes make it difficult for common people to understand and enjoy them. In a fast-paced world, the complicated language of poetry might not relate to most young people, who, preferring a faster and more dynamic form of entertainment, might find poetry unnecessary and a waste of time.
Yet poetry, for all its complexities, allows individuals to express complex emotions and experiences in a way that standard language is unable to. Life is complex and often rejects a straightforward interpretation, so it makes sense that poetry does the same. Poet Dylan Thomas wrote, “Poetry is what in a poem makes you laugh, cry, be silent, makes you want to do this or that or nothing, makes you know that you are alone in the unknown world, that your bliss and suffering is forever shared and forever all your own.” In an age characterised by emotional fragility, poems offer an outlet for both writers and readers, allowing them to find support in shared human experiences, whether those are about love, loss or joy.
Poetry also plays a critical role in helping young people reflect and think deeply about social, political and cultural issues in this modern age. The rise in the consumption of short-form content on social media has conditioned the brain to seek instant satisfaction and quick fixes, weakening the ability for deep thinking and reflection. On the other hand, reading complicated poetry can force readers to examine language rather than mindlessly snack on information, which might lead to an improvement in analytical and critical thinking skills.
Poetry might not be as popular now as it was in the past, but its benefits cannot be overlooked. It might not be possible to encourage every day readers to enjoy poems such as The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot, but they certainly can learn to enjoy a poem that both challenges and entertains.
28. Why do the young generation find poetry difficult to enjoy
A．Poetry deals with outdated topics.
B．Appreciating poetry is a waste of time.
C．Poetry fails to entertain them with moving stories.
D．They struggle to understand the complex language.
29. What does poet Dylan Thomas imply about poetry
A．Poetry makes readers emotional.
B．Poetry explores life’s complexities.
C．Poetry should be more accessible.
D．Poetry invites direct interpretations.
30. How does poetry enhance critical thinking
A．By engaging readers with the contents.
B．By training the brain to seek quick fixes.
C．By leading the young to reflect on various issues.
D．By pushing readers to process language mindfully.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards poetry
A．Appreciative.
B．Negative.
C．Unconcerned.
D．Cautious.
D
The rapid climate change we are experiencing today is mainly driven by greenhouse gases released by human activities. But new evidence from ancient Antarctic ice cores suggests this was not always the case over the past three million years. According to a new study in Nature, ocean temperatures may have had a greater influence on Earth’s climate than greenhouse gases at certain key transition periods.
Researchers analysed ice cores from Antarctica’s Allan Hills, a blue ice area covering just one percent of the ice sheet. Strong winds there blow away fresh snow, leaving ancient glacial ice exposed. The Allan Hills has hardly shifted in any direction, making it ideal for collecting ice as old as 6 million years. Ice cores serve as natural “archives (档案)” of Earth’s climate. Each layer traps tiny air bubbles that reveal historic atmospheric gas composition, while certain chemical elements can hint at past ocean temperatures.
Led by climate scientist Sarah Shackleton, a team used noble gases (惰性气体) trapped in the ice cores to estimate ancient ocean heat. Scientific measurements show the ocean cooled dramatically around 2.7 million years ago, matching a major climate shift that caused widespread glacier formation in the northern half of the Earth.
Shackleton’s team also discovered something surprising about ancient climate change. They found an apparent decoupling between sea surface temperatures and average ocean temperatures. Normally, if greenhouse gases were the main cause of climate change, both the surface and deep ocean would warm or cool at the same time. But in their data, that didn’t happen. The surface temperature changed quickly, while the deep ocean stayed relatively stable. This difference suggests that ancient climate shifts were not driven mainly by greenhouse gases — other factors, like changes in ocean currents, may have played a bigger role.
However, interpreting these old ice cores still has limitations. Experts say they are so complex that more research is needed to fully decode their secrets.
32. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning the Allan Hills in Paragraph 2
A．The formation process of Antarctic blue ice.
B．The ideal condition for collecting ice samples.
C．The influence of strong winds on global climate.
D．The general distribution of Antarctica’s ice sheet.
33. What is implied in Sarah Shackleton’s research
A．Noble gases directly caused glacier formation.
B．Ocean heat remained stable 2.7 million years ago.
C．Climate shift led to the drop of ocean temperature.
D．Changes in ocean heat contributed to a climate shift.
34. What does the underlined word “decoupling” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A．Being connected.
B．Being consistent.
C．Being mismatched.
D．Being dominated.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A．Blue Ice Areas Offer Access to Ancient Ice
B．Greenhouse Gases Drive Modern Warming
C．Antarctic Ice Cores Reveal a Different Climate Story
D．Ocean Temperatures Drove Most Past Climate Changes
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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Words escape you. Your skin tingles. You are overwhelmed by how small and insignificant you really are, bursting with an indescribable feeling — this is awe.
____36____ Astronauts report this feeling when facing the vastness of space, an experience that may reshape their attitude toward life on Earth.
Awe can be both positive and negative. If you’ve ever been moved by something immense and beautiful like splendid mountains or sunsets, you’ve likely experienced a sense of calm and wonder. That’s positive awe. ____37____ Things like natural disasters often leave us filled with terror and a sense of insignificance.
What happens in the brain when we experience awe When we feel awe, brain activity linked to self-focus decreases. ____38____ This may explain why you tend to “feel small” when you experience awe. But positive and negative awe may have different effects on our nervous system. Negative awe is associated with sympathetic nervous system activity, which drives our “fight or flight” response. Positive awe, however, is associated with increased parasympathetic (副交感的) activity. ____39____
Neuroscience suggests positive awe benefits mental health in five ways — relaxing the nervous system, reducing self-focus, inspiring willingness to help others, strengthening social connections and enriching life meaning. ____40____ One way to start is by taking “awe walks”. These involve walking with the intention of noticing beauty, vastness and wonder. You can also enjoy meditation, art or just lose yourself in the roar of a crowd.
A．So, how can you actively cultivate awe
B．Not all new experiences will arouse awe.
C．This reduces heart rate, making us feel calmer.
D．Negative awe occurs when we feel threatened or powerless.
E．It shifts away from yourself towards processing external information.
F．It is sometimes described as an experience at the boundary of pleasure and fear.
G．As a complex emotion, awe arises when enormous things go beyond our understanding.

I’ve grown used to the pause. That moment when someone hears my ____41____ — Goodluck — and looks at me with ____42____ or hesitation. “Wait, is that really your name ” “How do you spell it ” It’s something I didn’t think would require a lot of explanation.
Back in Nigeria, it didn’t. Names like Precious, Beauty or Grace were common. I didn’t realize how ____43____ my name was until I travelled to the United States. That was the first time “Goodluck” ____44____ blending in. I thought it would be easy for people to hear and remember. But instead of recognition, it was ____45____ repetition and disbelief. I had to ____46____ it out. Repeat it, countless times.
I couldn’t understand why something normal back home needed so much ____47____ in the U.S. But I also felt a quiet sense of gratitude. I never had to change my name to ____48____. I’ve met people who ____49____ the names their families gave them just to make things easier. I understood their reasons, yet I was all the more proud that I didn’t have to compromise my name.
In Nigerian culture, names are more than words — they’re ____50____. Some reflect the circumstances of birth, while others are blessings for the child’s future. Mine remains a ____51____. I don’t know why my parents chose it. I’ve never asked. To some, it means I carry good ____52____ with me. To others, it means I bring it.
But what started as just a name has become a part of me I now lead with. It’s one of the few things I’ve carried ____53____. In a new country, surrounded by new people, cultures, and places, my name has become a thread that ____54____ me to where I’m from. It’s a ____55____ that home isn’t something I left behind — it’s something I carry with me.

67. 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。
Ever since I was young, I had struggled with who I was. At school, I wanted to be like my American classmates — carefree, confident, and with a slim American nose. But at home, my family followed Chinese traditions. We spoke Chinese, ate Chinese food, and celebrated Chinese holidays. Sometimes I felt like two different people living inside one body.
My mother sensed my confusion. One day, she handed me a beige (米黄色) miniskirt and said, “You want to be the same as American girls on the outside. But inside, Amy, you will always be Chinese. You must be proud you are different.” I nodded, but deep down, I didn’t truly understand what she meant.
That Christmas Eve, my worst fear came true. My parents had invited the minister’s family for dinner — and Robert, the tall, smart, polite and blond-haired boy I secretly admired at church, was coming.
My heart nearly stopped. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners What terrible disappointment would he feel upon seeing not a roasted turkey and sweet potatoes but Chinese food
In despair, I stood in the kitchen, watching my mother prepare dinner. I noticed that she was making all my favourite dishes — steamed fish, slippery noodles, tofu, and shrimp.
On any normal day, I would have been happy. But tonight, these foods suddenly seemed strange and embarrassing to me. A whole steamed fish lay on a plate, its eyes still open and staring at me. Tofu looked like rubbery white sponges (海绵). My cousins were laughing loudly in the living room while my little brother chased the dog around the house. How I wished my family could be quieter and more “American”, at least for one evening!

When the doorbell finally rang, I almost wanted to hide upstairs.

Dear fellow students,
Our group recently carried out a survey on students’ healthy lifestyles in our school. We handed out questionnaires to 200 students and interviewed dozens of them.
The results worried us. Most students lack regular exercise and stay up late scrolling through phones. Few keep balanced diets, preferring snacks and soft drinks. Only a small number form good living habits.
From the survey, I realize we should value our health. It’s high time we cut screen time, take daily exercise and develop healthy eating habits to live better lives.
Thank you!
第二节读后续写范文
When the doorbell finally rang, I almost wanted to hide upstairs. Mother opened the door warmly and invited all guests in. Robert smiled and greeted me gently. His eyes lit up when he smelled the tasty Chinese dishes laid on the table. Instead of feeling disgusted, he asked curiously about each dish, listening carefully as Mom introduced their special meanings. During the meal, he praised the steamed fish and noodles repeatedly, chatting happily with my noisy cousins without any discomfort. All my embarrassment faded away little by little.
To my surprise, Robert’s family thanked us warmly when the dinner ended. Robert told me sincerely that this Chinese Christmas dinner was the most special feast he had ever enjoyed. He loved our unique culture and warm family atmosphere deeply. Watching them leave, I suddenly understood Mom’s words completely. Being different was never something shameful. My Chinese identity was my precious treasure. I should hold my culture tight and be proud of who I truly am.
