第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Britain’s seaside towns, once badly hurt, are now coming back to life! Old buildings still stand, but new art centres, fun activities, and popular places are bringing back their past glory. Here are four towns to visit this summer.
Scarborough, Yorkshire
Scarborough may be Britain’s first seaside spot for vacation. In the 1600s, people came for its health-giving springs. After years of downturn, it’s now improving thanks to new plans: hosting everything from poetry readings to rock music festivals, while still welcoming visitors to its top-rated beaches.
Margate, Kent
Every coastal town wants to attract visitors all year, and Margate does this best. When bad weather keeps people from the beach, there’s lots of indoor fun-like old-fashioned games and the Turner Contemporary art centre. But what really helps Margate grow is the strong community spirit, everyone working together.
Barmouth, Wales
On the way to famous North Wales spots like Snowdonia, don’t miss Barmouth! This hidden town sits where a river meets the sea, with mountains behind its beaches. Its slogan (口号) is “mountain, sand & sea” — just look at the sunset over the water with mountains in the distance. Many visitors love it so much that they decide to move here and become residents!
Penzance, Cornwall
Penzance has recovered slowly, not suddenly. Over the last 10 years, many new projects have helped the town. The main events are the 10-day Golowan festival, which features parades and shows, and the Montol winter celebration. Visitors can take a sleeper train (a train with beds) from London, or fly by helicopter to nearby Scilly Isles. The local food is also very popular!
1. What attracted people to Scarborough in the 1600s
A. Poetry readings. B. Music festivals. C. Seaside attractions. D. Healthful springs.
2. What is the main factor for Margate’s growth
A. Warm weather. B. Indoor activities. C. Local teamwork. D. Modern facilities.
3. Which town has liveable natural conditions
A. Margate, Kent. B. Barmouth, Wales.
C. Penzance, Cornwall. D. Scarborough, Yorkshire.
B
Why does “bouba” sound round and “kiki” sound spiky (尖锐的) This perception, known as “bouba-kiki” effect, is reliable all over the world, and for at least a century, scientists have considered it a clue to the origin of language, theorizing that maybe our ancestors built their first words upon these associations between sound and shape. But a new study published in Science adds an unexpected finding: baby chickens make these same pairings, suggesting that the link to human language may not be so unique.
The study was led by Maria Loconsole, a comparative psychologist at the University of Padua. She and her colleagues placed chicks in front of two panels: one featured a flowerlike shape with gently rounded curves; the other had a spiky shape like a cartoon explosion. They then played recordings of humans saying either “bouba” or “kiki” and observed the birds’ behavior. When the chicks heard “bouba,” 80 percent of them approached the round shape first and spent an average of more than three minutes exploring it compared with an average of just under one minute spent exploring the spiky shape. When the chicks heard “kiki,” the opposite occurred.
One long-standing theory that these associations are inspired by the shape your mouth makes when you say each word can now be ruled out, since the chicks showed the effect despite being unable to speak. Instead the “bouba-kiki” effect may originate from the physical properties of objects themselves. When round objects hit the ground or roll, they typically produce more continuous, low-frequency sounds than spiky ones. A built-in grasp of those dynamics, linking sight and sound, could help newborn animals quickly make sense of their environment, possibly to locate food or avoid predators (食肉动物).
The “bouba-kiki” effect may have played a role in the emergence of language. But for chickens, this same tendency seems to serve a more evolutionary purpose. “Even if language is unique to humans,” Loconsole says, “that doesn’t mean that it comes from an ability that is unique to humans.”
4. What does the new study focus on
A. The origin of human language. B. Sound-shape connections in chicks.
C. Animals’ recognition of shapes. D. Brain-behavior relationships of birds.
5. In what way do the chicks respond differently to the two sounds
A. Sound localization. B. Reaction speed.
C. Exploration preference. D. Matching accuracy.
6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about concerning the effect
A. Its historical context. B. Its potential application.
C. Its overlooked limitation. D. Its possible explanation.
7. What does Loconsole say about the effect
A. It originated in birds. B. It shows evolutionary tendency.
C. It’s shared across species. D. It’s vital to language emergence.
C
Inference is like a secret key to unlock deeper meanings, whether in books or daily conversations. It helps us move beyond surface-level words to catch what is truly meant. For students, this skill is not just about passing exams — it shapes how they see the world through an author’s eyes. They look for clues (线索) that show what the writer really means. Without it, reading becomes a flat list of words, like trying to understand a song by only reading its lyrics.
Good readers act like detectives. They connect tiny clues in the text to their own lives. Such personal links deepen the reading experience. Imagine a story describing a girl “clenching her fists during an argument”. A skilled reader wouldn’t just see fists; they’d sense her anger or frustration, perhaps recalling a time they felt the same way.
In school, inference turns confusing texts into clear ideas. When a history story says, “The king’s decision caused whispers in the court,” students need to infer that people doubted the king. They draw information from their existing knowledge, and relate to the characters more deeply. This way, they learn to read between the lines everywhere. This skill even helps in science — like guessing an experiment’s purpose from its steps.
Inference is why books feel alive. Those who use it well don’t just read stories; they live them. Their minds add sounds, smells, and feelings to the text. A simple sentence like “The campfire died slowly” might make them smell smoke, hear crackling wood, and feel the loneliness of night — all without the author spelling it out.
8. What is the primary function of inference in reading
A. To understand new words. B. To help students pass exams.
C. To get underlying meanings. D. To write a summary of the text.
9. Why does the author compare good readers to detectives
A. To explain a sentence. B. To find the differences.
C. To highlight their roles. D. To show their similarities.
10. What can you infer from the underlined sentence
A. The king hated the people’s whispers. B. The people doubted the king’s decision.
C. The king made a loud announcement. D. The court was now a very noisy place.
11. What does the underlined word “live” mean in the last paragraph
A. Experience. B. Memorize. C. Comment. D. Compose.
D
After 25 years, of professional experience, Brandi Fields thought she wouldn’t get back to campus again — until her son Kyle’s transformation at Texas Christian University (TCU) made her see education in a new light. The mother and her son will strengthen their connection even more at this week’s spring graduation ceremony, as they honor their achievement of earning graduate degrees at the same time.
Brandi, 50, and Kyle,.22, will walk across the stage together to accept their respective graduate degrees, with their family and friends cheering them on from the audience. Kyle began his undergraduate studies at TCU in the fall of 2020. Soon after, his family moved to Fort Worth, motivated to be closer as a family. In May 2023, Kyle earned his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in communications and a minor in business. In fall 2023, both mother and son were back in the classroom — Brandi joined the EMBA program and Kyle began the master’s degree program with AddRan College of Liberal Arts.
Brandi said her new college experience brought immersive (沉浸式的) learning, late night readings and a transformative study abroad trip to South Africa. Through it all, she described feeling deeply supported by her family and the remarkable EMBA academic (学术的) team and staff who shaped her experience to be impactful and unforgettable. Outside the classroom, Brandi and Kyle found a lot of moments of connection. “Spending time together, just doing homework on the sofa gave us a lot of time, a lot of things to connect through,” Kyle shared.
About this week’s spring graduation ceremony, Brandi said she’s not yet sure how she’ll react on that day, but she knows there will no doubt be tears as she cheers on her son as he walks across the stage. For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever.
12. What made Brandi decide to return to school
A. The invitation from TCU.
B. A must for her career advancement.
C. A desire to strengthen family relationship.
D. Inspiration from her son’s academic journey.
13. What does paragraph 2 focus on
A. Adaptation challenges in college.
B. Completion of a bachelor’s degree.
C. Shared engagement in high education.
D. A relocation decision for family bonds.
14. Which of the following can best describe Brandi at college
A. She actively took part in various social activities.
B. She put academic excellence before family time.
C. She achieved family harmony and academic success.
D. She struggled with course demands more than Kyle did.
15. What message does the author want to deliver
A. Age is no wall for a learning call.
B. Learning together, bonding stronger.
C. Home environment shapes child’s growth..
D. Sharing interests, deepening understanding.

Writing is like running: It gets easier the more you train. ____16____ They also do stretches, strength and cross-training. As writers, we can also improve our writing skills by increasing the time we spend on writing and completing other related exercises. Here are some practices that may help you become a better writer. Let’s dive in.
Establish a regular writing routine. Household chores, family obligations, or even TV shows always seem more urgent. However, if you’re serious about writing, you have to go out of your way to make time for it. The trick is changing your mindset. ____17____ Schedule a set time in your day for writing and honour it even when you don’t feel like it.
____18____ Whether you’re writing a novel or a scientific journal article, becoming familiar with examples of excellent writing in your genre will help you improve your own writing. By immersing yourself in works by good writers, you will expand your vocabulary, build knowledge, and feed your imagination.

You’ll write faster and more clearly if you know that purpose before you start. Therefore, sum up your message in one line before you start. ____19____
Embrace constructive criticism. Seeking feedback (反馈) from the right people is one of the fastest ways to improve as a writer.

A. Pick up good books.

On a hot late afternoon, I saw an elderly woman struggling with a walker and heavy bags. I made a U-turn and offered to give her a ride. She thanked me and got in.
After a few blocks, we passed under a bridge where several homeless people were living. She asked me to stop. I hesitated, thinking to myself, “Could this be where she lives ”
Thankfully, it wasn’t. She rolled down her window and called out to them, “You all come by later. It’s spaghetti (意大利面) night tonight.”
Then, we continued on, chatting. Her name was Ida. She worked at a grocery (杂货店) store and had missed her bus. She had grandchildren. She even shared her spaghetti recipe with me.
It was getting dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old house where she lived. Several young men stood around the entrance. One, with long hair, stared (盯) at me with an unusual smile.
I felt nervous, but Ida seemed calm. I quickly helped her unload (卸货) and drove away. Soon, darkness fell. I got lost and had to rely on my GPS. Suddenly, I heard a motorcycle behind me. It was that young man with long hair!

【答案】例文
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m Li Hua, a tourist from China. During my visit to London recently, I noticed many translation mistakes in Chinese signs at scenic spots. Some expressions are even misleading, which may bring inconvenience to Chinese tourists and affects the city’s image.
I sincerely hope your department can check all public Chinese signs carefully. It would be better to invite professional translators to revise them. More accurate translations will help visitors better understand your culture and enjoy the tour.
Thank you for your attention and understanding.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【答案】One possible version:
He kept following me, waving for me to stop. My heart raced with fear. I tried to speed up, but he stayed close. In panic, I drove erratically as I reached down for my phone, which was in my wallet, to call for help — only to find my wallet gone! “The elderly woman must be the one who took it!” I thought angrily. Then I noticed a different wallet on the floor of my car. Meanwhile, the young man still followed, now holding up my wallet! Confused, I stopped the car.
The young man handed me my wallet through the window. “Grandma sent me. She picked it up by mistake. She’s very sorry.” His smile now seemed kind, not frightening. I was speechless as I handed him his grandma’s wallet and then he went off in a hurry. I waved at the young man to stop as I quickly got a few dollars from my wallet. I wanted to reward him ever so slightly, but he had disappeared into the night. I never had a chance to say I was sorry for my thoughts. Just because he looked like he was on the “wild side”, I assumed he was a bad man.
