二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5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
The British Museum, in London, recently planned to make digital(数字的) copies of all the objects it keeps. The project to deal with about 8 million objects will take five years. The reason for this is that the museum said in August that about 2, 000 objects had been stolen or missing.
The museum is one of the busiest in the world. It holds objects such as the Rosetta Stone, the Parthenon Marbles — known as the Elgin Marbles — and ancient stones and jewelry(珠宝).
The leader, or chair of the museum, is George Osborne. He recently told the Culture, Media and Sport Committee of Parliament that he believed a person who worked at the museum was responsible. Osborne called it “an inside job by someone who the museum had put trust in.” He said the person took objects from the museum little by little.
The museum’s manager at the time was German art historian Hartwig Fischer. Fischer left the job in August after serving since 2016. He said he must be responsible for the thefts(盗窃) in the end. He added the museum did not react as it should have when concerns first came up that someone had been stealing.
The museum head said about 350 of the 2, 000 objects have been found and are in the process of being returned. Stolen objects included gold rings, earrings and other jewelry from the ancient Greek and Roman times.
The manager of the museum at present is Mark Jones. He said the museum is confident “that a theft of this kind can never happen again.” Jones added that one way to improve the museum’s safety is to show more objects to the public instead of, as he said, “simply locking objects away.”
In September, the museum asked for help in finding the missing objects. The organization offered a phone number for people to call if they had information.
21. Who stole the objects according to George Osborne
A. A visitor B. An artist. C. An art dealer. D. A museum worker.
22. Why did Hartwig Fischer feel sorry about the missing objects
A. He shouldn’t have trusted any worker. B. He didn’t deal with the stealing in time.
C. He did not notice objects were missing. D. He shouldn’t have shown valuable objects.
23. What does Mark Jones want to do to protect their objects
A. Lock their objects away. B. Call on the public to help.
C. Make more objects known. D. Keep visitors away from objects.
B
Lila Marquez gently places a tiny wild goose with an injured wing into a soft cotton box. “Take it easy, little Dewdrop,” she whispers, adjusting the warm lamp above the box. For the past eight years, the retired biology teacher’s balcony in Buenos Aires has been a safe haven for injured or abandoned wild geese. With her careful care, more than 200 geese have regained strength and returned to the nearby wetlands.
Lila’s journey with wild geese began in 2015, two years after her husband passed away. She felt lost and lonely until one rainy afternoon, when she found a weak gosling trembling under a tree — its wing broken by a stray cat. “I couldn’t leave it there,” Lila recalls. She named the gosling Dewdrop and spent weeks nursing it back to health: feeding it nutrient-rich goose feed, cleaning its wound daily, and teaching it to swim in a small basin. As Dewdrop grew stronger, Lila found joy she hadn’t felt in years. “That little goose gave me a reason to get up every morning,” she says.
Soon, neighbors and passersby started bringing her injured wild geese — some with broken legs, others weakened by pollution or hunger. Lila dug into her old biology textbooks and searched online for goose care tips. A local vet even offered free advice to help her improve her nursing skills. Last year, a student posted a video of Lila feeding the geese on Instagram, and it quickly went viral with over 800,000 views. People from nearby areas began donating goose feed and medical supplies.
Yet the wild geese still face great plight in the city. The wetlands they depend on are shrinking due to urban construction; stray animals and water pollution pose constant risks. But Lila never loses hope. She has started a small community group to plant native water plants and advocate for wetland protection. “Caring for these geese isn’t just about saving them,” she says. “It’s about reminding people that we share this city with all living things.”
Every time a healed goose flies off to the wetlands, Lila stands on her balcony, watching proudly. For her, these geese are more than just rescued creatures — they are symbols of comfort, hope, and the power of small acts of kindness.
24. What can we learn about Dewdrop from the text
A. It stayed with Lila for eight years.
B. It was the reason Lila retired from teaching.
C. It helped Lila get out of loneliness.
D. It became famous on social media for its story.
25. Why does the author mention the facts of a local vet and people from nearby areas in Para 3
A. To prove Lila’s kind act inspired people around her to join in.
B. To show Lila was good at making friends with local people.
C. To explain how Lila learned professional nursing skills for geese.
D. To describe the development of the local animal protection industry.
26. Which words best describe Lila according to the text
A. Kind-hearted and determined.
B. Humorous and creative.
C. Brave and ambitious.
D. Honest and outgoing.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Lila and Wild Geese: Protection and Research
B. Lila and Wild Geese: Rescue and Comfort
C. Lila and Wild Geese: Friendship and Adventure
D. Lila and Wild Geese: Survival and Success
C
There are careers in popular music which proceed in a straight, glittering line, and there are others which are tested in fierce fire before they attain their full reputation. Lady Gaga belongs unmistakably to the latter order. To regard her merely as a provider of marvellous performances is to mistake the lightning for the storm. Behind the masks, the stunning concerts, and the uproar of fame, there has long stood a woman of uncommon endurance, who has had to earn, more than once, the right to remain herself.
The gravest trial of her middle career came with ARTPOP, issued in 2013, a record born with extravagant ambition and fashioned in ignorance of ordinary taste. Yet, though it opened strongly, it did not win the unanimous applause that had delivered her earlier triumphs. In time, Gaga herself spoke of that season as one of desolation. She recalled becoming deeply depressed, worn out by conflict, and haunted by a sadness so heavy that, in her own description, she could scarcely feel the beat of her heart. On another occasion, reflecting on the same period, she confessed that she had not wished to sing any more. Such words, from an artist built so visibly for the stage, carry the chill of true torture.
It was then that Tony Bennett entered not merely as a collaborator, but as a rescuer of the spirit. Their partnership on Cheek to Cheek did more than widen her range of music talents; it restored to her a simpler faith in music itself. Bennett, by her own repeated witnesses, wanted nothing from her but her friendship and her voice. In an industry governed by appetite, calculation, and noise, such generosity must have seemed almost antique. That an elder statesman of song could steady a younger artist at the brink of inward collapse is one of the more moving episodes in recent musical history. Gaga would say, with no hint of theatrical excess, he had saved her life.
What followed is the true measure of her greatness. She did not vanish into self-pity, nor did she allow one grievous chapter to define the remainder of her story. She worked, adapted, sang in new idioms, acted, endured, and returned. Most touching of all, perhaps, was the reconciliation that came in the summer of 2025, when The Mayhem Ball restored ARTPOP songs such as Aura and Applause to her live stage after years of her refusal to play them. It was not only a set-list alteration; it was an act of artistic pardon. She had gone back to the wounded province of her own past and lit it, at last, with acceptance.
For this reason Lady Gaga deserves admiration beyond fashion or fandom (饭圈). She has shown that greatness in art lies not in never falling, but in returning from humiliation with one’s voice enlarged, one’s dignity protected, and one’s courage made visible to the world.
28. What made Gaga’s ARTPOP period especially painful
A. Public reduction of her work to mere display.
B. Mental strain caused by conflict and sorrow.
C. Fading praise, mental collapse, refusal to sing.
D. Weakening and saddened belief in music.
29. What was Tony Bennett’s greatest importance to Gaga
A. Renewal of her trust in song. B. Enlargement of her artistic scope.
C. Repair of her public standing. D. Escape from a calculating profession.
30. What gave Gaga’s 2025 return to ARTPOP songs its special meaning
A. Recovery of a once-failed record.
B. Recognition of overdue public acceptance.
C. Peace with a painful career experience.
D. Correction of critical opinion on the album.
31. What is the main focus of the passage
A. The burden of fame in pop culture.
B. The healing force of artistic companionship.
C. The later defence of a troubled album.
D. The greatness of persistence through failure.
D
Like a literal breath of fresh air, so-called “micro-forests” represent a green practice, boosting the quality of life in many of the world’s polluted and overcrowded urban centers.
These small areas of densely (稠密地) planted woodland trees, also known as mini-forests or pocket forests, allow communities to manage the effects of climate change in a small way, but offer enormous benefits to the environment and local people, as they restore soil, air and water quality. These mini-forests are proving a magnet for various animal and plant species, which offer human beings the chance to learn more about nature. Magically becoming self-sustaining over time, they are a way to make reimagined urban life a reality.
Significantly, mini-forests, as one of their nonprofit facilitators SUGi outlines, serve to build social bonds in communities as well, as they come together to enjoy and sustain new natural settings. They can also regenerate and beautify neglected (被忽视的) plots in cities such as former basketball courts, and disused parking lots and playgrounds, for instance.
According to the UN’s State of the World’s Forests Report from 2020, over 440 million hectares (公顷) of forest have been lost to other uses since 1990. Now, more than half of the global population lives in urban areas, but the access to green spaces is limited. The good news is that micro-forests in cities can offer an important chance to fight against deforestation and enlarge green spaces.
Euro News details some of the many exciting micro-forests that have taken root globally. Nonprofit Earthwatch Europe, for instance, has planted 285 of them since 2022. Their plots are made up of 600 trees. A tree-planting program aiming to restore biodiversity and reintroduce native species, SUGi, has created 230 pocket forests in 52 cities around the world, from Toulouse in France, to Madrid in Spain, and Saint George in Romania.
32. What does the underlined word “magnet” in paragraph 2 most probably mean
A. Something artificial. B. Something simplified.
C. Something innovative. D. Something appealing.
33. How do micro-forests benefit a city according to the text
A. They reduce traffic jams. B. They improve urban land use.
C. They popularize sports activities. D. They ensure citizens’ privacy.
34. What is the data in paragraph 4 intended to stress
A. The fast pace of urbanization. B. The need to control populations.
C. The importance of micro-forests, D. The harm caused by deforestation.
35. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Plans to further promote micro-forests. B. Benefits of sustaining micro-forests.
C. Examples of creating micro-forests in cities. D. Policies about micro-forest preservation.

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。
One week, we participated in a program that aimed to bring students fun and also strengthen their courage. On the third morning, we left our camp for a hike. We picked our way along a stream in a park. There were six of us. Tall and strong, Sam led the way.
After a while, we found a small waterfall and some smaller kids playing in the pool below together with their camp leaders. Forked ribbons of water (分叉的带状水流) leapt about three meters into the pool.
We settled ourselves on a large stone above the waterfall. We unpacked our bags and spread out food, eating and laughing. Minutes later, the others carried all the food and attempted to jump across the stream above the waterfall. Soon, they crossed the first narrow ribbon of water and were now standing on the rocks that bordered the second channel.
To me, the second channel looked so wide! Scared, I decided to stay right where I was. But they yelled back, “Come on over here! If you want any juice, that is!” I was thirsty. Slowly, I picked my way across a group of rocks till I reached a flat stone opposite where they were grouped. All had their backs to me; they were now busy aiming small stones at a fallen tree on the bank.
I glanced down. The very cold water was running past the stone, inches away from my feet. I looked across the belt of water towards the tempting fruit juice! This sight inspired me to take action. I bent down, tensed myself to leap, and then glanced towards the left side.
Barely two meters away was the waterfall. Although it was small and there were adults below, I still feared. My knees trembled; I drew back a couple of paces, staring at the running water.
“Come along, Jimmy!” Sam said in a gentle voice. I looked up. Sam stood on the other side, barely four feet away from me. He must have seen me hesitating on the edge of the stone and sensed my terror at jumping across this little stream! Embarrassed, I took off my glasses.
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。
I wiped them, searching for a reason to avoid crossing the water.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then I gathered my courage, took a step forward, and jumped lightly across the channel.

【答案】 I wiped them, searching for a reason to avoid crossing the water. After putting them on again, Sam was still there. “I don’t want any juice!” I said. Sam nodded understandingly. “Fine!” he spoke pleasantly and stood waiting. Frustrated by my own weakness, I took a deep breath, preparing myself to jump across the water. Once again, fear overwhelmed me. I looked towards where the others sat. Much to my relief, they still had their backs turned; only Sam stood opposite me, looking straight into my eyes, patiently.
Then I gathered my courage, took a step forward, and jumped lightly across the channel. A slight slip of my heel on a stone was quickly steadied by Sam’s strong forearm against my back. As I glanced up, I couldn’t help but notice Sam’s towering height — the tallest among us. “Well done, Jimmy!” he said, nodding in approval while praising me for my bravery. Meanwhile, he handed me a bottle of juice. While drinking it, I felt a sense of pride in myself and gratitude towards Sam for his kindness.
