The program, called “Read & Win,” offered prizes for students who r ead a certain number of books during the school year. The prizes ranged from small gadgets to gift cards for local bookstores.Sarah’s initiative paid off. The number of young people visiting the library increased significantly.

You will find the answers immediately after each question.Passage:In an age where technology seems to be taking over every aspect of our lives, there remains one activity that has not been overshadowed by digital advancements: reading traditional books. Despite the popularity of e-books andaudiobooks, many people still prefer the tactile experience of holding a physical book and turning its pages. This preference for traditional books is not only due to nostalgia but also because of the unique benefits they offer.A recent study conducted by the National Reading Agency found that individuals who read physical books tend to have a better memory of the content compared to those who read the same material on digital devices. Furthermore, there is a growing concern about the impact of screen time on sleep patterns, with research suggesting that reading from screens before bedtime can negatively affect the quality of sleep. Physical books, on the other hand, do not emit blue light which can disrupt melatonin production, thus helping readers get a good night’s rest.Moreover, libraries and bookstores continue to thrive as communal spaces where people gather to share ideas and engage in discussions about literature. The atmosphere in these places fosters a sense of community and a love for reading that cannot be replicated online. While digital media offers convenience and access to a vast amount of information, it does not replace the unique experience of visiting a library or bookstore.In conclusion, while technology offers many conveniences, the tradition of reading physical books remains strong. It provides a way to disconnect from the digital world, improve memory retention, and foster social connections within communities.End of PassageQuestions:1、According to the passage, what is one benefit of reading physical books over digital devices?Answer: Better memory retention of the content.2、What potential negative effect on health is associated with reading from screens before bedtime?Answer: Disruption of sleep quality due to blue light affecting melatonin production.3、How do libraries and bookstores contribute to community life according to the text?Answer: They serve as communal spaces where people gather to share ideas and engage in discussions about literature.4、What does the passage suggest about the future of physical books despite technological advances?Answer: Physical books will remain significant as they offer ways to disconnect, improve memory, and foster social connections.四、阅读第二节(12.5分)Title: The Art of MeditationReading Passage:Meditation has been a part of human culture for thousands of years, serving as a means for relaxation, stress reduction, and spiritual growth.

While the internet is undoubtedly a valuable tool for learning and communication, it requires users to develop critical thinking skills to discern fact fromfiction. This ability is particularly important for young people who have grown up with easy access to technology but may lack the experience necessary to judge the 1 of the information they encounter.In addition to being able to evaluate the credibility of online content, digital literacy involves understanding the importance of privacy and security measures when using the web.

person.The fact is that failure is common.In this article,you'll learn a little about how to overcome failure through having the right attitude.Expect mistakes.(36)To expect life to be always smooth (顺利) is not practical.Failure helps to create balance in your life and presents an opportunity for personal growth.Accept the fact that things won't always go your way.Learn to love finding out that you're wrong about something.That's not failure;it's the path to finding the right way.(37)Whatever you're feeling about a failure,keep cool.Look at it this way---it won't make any difference to the result itself whether you blow your top or stay calm,but it will take a lot less energy if you choose the latter response.If you're really angry,channel these emotions to motivate yourself to start again.(38)It's not good to bottle up feelings,but you can't take out your anger on those around you for no good reason.Go for a run or a swim to give yourself space to think.Just do something to distract (使分散注意力) yourself from the strong feelings until you calm down.(39)Not only will your failure soon be yesterday's news,but if you think other people are judging you,it won't be long before they're busy worrying about their own failures.After all,everyone is going to fail now and then.So does it really matter what others think?Stop worrying,start laughing.The sun will come up again tomorrow.Things might be terrible for a little while but how will worrying help?Think back to a time when you worried a lot.(40)Most likely not,apart from giving you more wrinkles (皱纹) and gray hair.The greatest thing you can do for yourself during failure is to use humor.A.Focus on trying again.B.Remain calm.C.Don't take your anger out on others.D.Did it make any difference?E.Forget about how other people view you.F.Life's hard knocks are as common as life's successes.G.It is a good thing to set out to do something that you know will fail.第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节)第一节 完形填空(满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.15.(30分)Earthquakes are (1);thousands of them happen each day.But most are too weak to feel.During a (2)earthquake,there is often a great noise first.Then the earth shakes terribly;many houses(3)down.Railway tracks break and trains go (4)lines;a great many factories are (5);thousands of deaths are caused,and many more lose

(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读理解Books to Read in Your 20sThe Kite Runner By Khaled HosseiniAs a Middle Eastern and North African Studies student, I have a great interest in books about what takes place in this area. I first read this book in high school and really enjoyed it because of its accurate language. If any of you is interested in reading this book and hasn't yet, I highly recommend it.Fire fly Lane By Kristin HannahThis is my favorite book. It is a story about friendship, love and life lessons. The story covers the lives of two best friends, Tully and Kate, from childhood to adulthood. I learned so much about friendship and life. So, read Firefly Lane! You'll laugh, you'll cry, and then you'll share this book to your best friend.Half the Sky By Nicholas KristofFor any person of any age, Half the Sky is a must-read. It describes the struggle of women and the most pressing human rights problems of our time: the common oppression of women and girls.The Little Prince By Antoine de SaintThis children's book is simple. It might seem like a wrong book to recommend to someone in their twenties, but perhaps that's what makes it a good choice. It sings praises to exploration and shows the importance of making friends. 1.Who is the writer of the book The Kite Runner?A.Khaled Hosseini.B.Kristin Hannah.C.Nicholas Kristof.D.Antoine de Saint.2.What can we learn about the book Firefly Lane?A.It's written by Tully and Kate.B.It talks about friendship and life.C.It's a simple book for children.D.It's a comic book with humorous writing.3.Which book will you read if you want to know about human rights problems?A.The Kite Runner.B.Firefly Lane.C.Half the Sky.D.The Little Prince.阅读理解There is an English saying that "Laughter(笑) is the best medicine." Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter can really improve people's health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works on several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐)the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter. 4.According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG?A.Laughter is good for healthB.Laughter can make you become old quicklyC.Laughter helps to reduce pain.D.Laughter, just like physical exercise, is good for our body.5.The underlined word "diminishes" in the third paragraph means "____".A.delays B.prevents C.increases D.reduces6.Why do some doctors hold laughter clinics?A.Because they want to earn more money.B.Because they think they will help the patients recover from illnesses.C.Because they want to improve their patients' condition.D.Because they want their patients to practice how to laugh7.What would be the best title for this passage?A.Both laughter and physical exercise are good for healthB.Laughter clinics help patients improve their conditionC.Laughter can reduce the effects of painD.Laughter is the best medicine.阅读理解Popcorn Park Zoo is not like most zoos. It is a very special place.This unusual place was not originally a zoo. At first it was called the Forked River Animal Care Center. The workers there looked after lost or unwanted cats and dogs. Today the center is part of the zoo, but now many other kinds of animals are helped there, too.The changes to the center began in 1977 when a raccoon(浣熊) needed help. One of its front paws(爪子) had been badly hurt. The workers cared for the animal. Finally it was better, but it could not care for itself. The raccoon was allowed to live there. Then a hurt deer was brought there for help. It, too, stayed there after it got well.Once people heard about the wonderful work being done at the center, they began taking all kinds of hurt or homeless animals there. Soon it was no longer just a home for cats and dogs. So many animals were living there that it became more like a zoo.Popcorn Park Zoo got its funny name because many of the animals there like to eat popcorn made without oil or salt. The popcorn is sold there to help make money to care for the animals. People buy the popcorn to feed the animals as a treat.Popcorn Park Zoo now looks after more than 200 kinds of animals. Many of them live freely there. Some of the gentler ones, such as goats, sheep, geese, and deer, walk among the visitors who come to see them. Others are kept in large closed areas almost like their natural homes. All the animals there get care and love.8.Before 1977, the center was a home for ____.A.lost or unwanted cats and dogsB.hurt or homeless raccoons and goatsC.lost or unwanted deer and sheepD.hurt or homeless raccoons and geese9.How did the workers in the center help the raccoon?A.They changed its front paws.B.They cured it and let it live there.C.They sent it back to its home.D.They built another home just for it.10.The popcorn is sold in Popcorn Park Zoo to ____.A.treat the visitors B.reward the workersC.trick the animals D.raise money11.What can we learn about animals in the zoo from the last paragraph?A.They all live in closed areas.B.Some of them can walk out of the zoo freely.C.All of them are taken good care of.D.Some of them have already returned to nature.阅读理解Fu Yuanhui is China's newest sweetheart. The 20-year-old swimmer from Hangzhou won a bronze medal at the recent Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. But it wasn't the medal that charmed people's hearts, it was Fu's honest remarks and bubbly personality.Climbing out of the pool after a semi-final heat, Fu looked tired and out of breath, and not very happy. She thought her time may not have been good enough to make the final. But the reporter told her otherwise. Fu had just swum a personal best! And it was Fu's reaction (反应) to this news that made everyone fall in love with her.Her eyes got big and smiled. "Wow, I'm so fast!" she said. And she joked with the girl reporter that she must have been helped by her "mystical powers." Later, after the final race, it was the same reporter who again surprised Fu by telling her she'd won a bronze medal. "What? Really?" she said, "That's not so bad, then."Fu worked hard to get to the Olympics and her training, she said, "Even though I did not win a gold medal, I surpassed (超过) myself and I am happy with that."12.What kind of medal did Fu Yuanhui win in the Olympic Games in Brazil?A.The gold medal.B.The silver medal.C.The bronze medal.D.None.13.Why didn't Fu Yuanhui feel happy after the semi-final heat at first?A.Because she didn't feel well.B.Because she thought she didn't do well.C.Because she wasn't satisfied with her reaction.D.Because the reporter asked her an unhappy question.14.The third paragraph tells us Fu Yuanhui ____.A.had an expressive faceB.was satisfied with herselfC.thought the game is unfair for herD.was sorry to get the bronze medal15.We can learn from the underlined words that Fu Y uanhui ____.A.thought she had tried her bestB.thought she was lucky enoughC.wanted to thank the reporterD.planned to win the gold medal二、第二部分,阅读理解,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以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In 2023, “Britain’s Got Talent” (BGT) uncovered a musical genius named Malaka i Bayoh who impressed the audience with perfect high-note singing.The London-based 13-year-old boy appeared for the show’s audition ( 海选) in April, 2023 and was accompanied by his mom and sister. “My big dream is to be an opera singer. I started singing at 7,” said Malakai to the BGT team. He then added jokingly, “My mom made me join the choir because she’s very bossy.” The teenager mentioned she was his biggest fan.Malakai’s mom was worried as he was about to perform and said, “It scares me because, on his first show, somebody heckled (对……起哄) him. It was sad to see someone boo a child on stage because it might destroy his confidence completely.” Contrary to his mom’s fear, Malakai set the stage on fire singing a beautiful song and the entire crowd was impressed by his amazing voice. As he ended hissong, the audience and the judges gave him a big round of applause. The performance won him Simon Cowell’s Golden Buzzer, sending him straight to the semi-finals of the show.The other judges called Malakai’s performance “perfect” and “heavenly” . His angelic voice blew the audience away and the judges thanked the teen for coming to the show. Malakai went on to become one of the finalists of the show and signed a record deal with Universal Music.Malakai’s audition at the BGT went viral on social media, “I’m a trained singer, and a music teacher by profession, and sang this song as a young performer myself. I can say with absolute certainty this is the best I’ve ever heard this song sung, with proper technique a nd proper breathing. This boy is a gifted singer,”@mayacorinne878 posted.24. What made Malakai’s mom feel worriedA. The judge’s expression.B. Her son’s performance on stage.C. A bad experience.D. Her son’s difficulty in singing in public. 25. What do es the phrase “set the stage on fire” in paragraph 3 imply about Malakai’s performance A. He accidentally caused a literal fire during his performance.B. His performance was extremely passionate and energetic.C. His performance received the lowest rating possible.D. He refused to perform unless certain conditions were met.26. What can be inferred about Malakai’s talentA. He has average talent but is well-received due to his age.B. He has exceptional talent that is recognized by both professionals and the public.C. He has talent, but his performance was not enough to send him to the semi-finals.D. He lacks talent, but his story touched the hearts of the audience.27. What is the text mainly aboutA. The rise of a young opera singer.B. The impact of social media on music talent.C. The history of “Got Talent” shows.D. The challenges faced by young performers.CFor adults who have struggled with understanding new math homework or surprised at how quickly kids can learn a second language, there is new evidence that shows kids can really learn things much faster than adults.A study published in Current Biology finds that children and adults have different concentrations of a key brain messenger called gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA. This messenger slows down the brain by blocking specific signals in the body’s central nervous system. It also produces a calming effect and is thought to play amajor role in controlling the overactivity of nerve cells associated with anxiety, stress and fear. All these contribute to the learning of new things.In the study, the researchers from Brown University usedneuro-imaging techniques to examine visual perceptive ( 视觉感知的) learning in elementary school-aged children and adults. Participants were shown a number of different images and were later asked questions about them following the test.Visual learning caused an increase of GABA in children’s visual cortex( 皮层), the area of the brain that processes visual information. However, GABA levels didn’t change in th e adults who took the same visual tests. In addition, children participants kept that GABA increase for hours after training ended, while the concentrations of GABA remained the same in the adults studied. “In subsequent behavioral experiments, we found th at children indeed learn more items within a given period of time than adults.” said Sebastian M. Frank, the co-author of the study. “Our results therefore point to GABA as a key player in making learning more efficient in children.”These results, the authors argue, should encourage teachers and parents to keep giving children opportunities to learn anything from riding a bike to playing an instrument throughout theirchildhood.The findings may also change neuro-scientists ’ conception of brain maturity i n children. “Although children’s brains are not yet fully mature and many of their behavioral and cognitive functions are not as efficient as in adults, children are not, in general, surpassed in their learning abilities by adults,” said study co-author Takeo Watanabe.28. What’s the function of GABAA. Send specific messages to the brain.B. Deal with complex math problems.C. Make the nervous system more active.D. Increase efficiency in learning new things.29. What do we know about the children taking the visual test A. Their GABA concentrations kept increasing after training. B. Their learning abilities still needed to be improved.C. They could remember more images than adults.D. They were surpassed by adults in learning abilities.30. How did the researchers do the researchA. By comparing participants ’ reaction.B. By analyzing statistics.C. By collecting relative evidence.D. By conducting online survey.31. What does Takeo Watanabe want to say in the last paragraphA. Neuro-scientists don’t fully understand brain maturity in children.B. Children are not mature in their behavior and cognition.C. It takes a long time for children’s brains to be fully mature.D. Children’s brain maturity does not affect their learning abilities. DArtificial intelligence(AI) models have long surpassed just creating text responses and images. Now, with only one sentence, Open AI’s latest text-to-video model, Sora, can turn your words into video with good visual quality while faithfully following your content instructions.Sora is said to be superior to many other existing models with similar functions. The AI model can create videos at suitable aspect ratios ( 屏幕高宽比) for different devices. It also lets users quickly test out content in lower quality before making the high-quality version, which helps speed up output according to the user’s requests.Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. Sora can create detailed scenes with several characters, specific types of motion, and accurate subject and background details. Beyond the user’s requests, it also understands how these elements exist in the real world. For example, reflections in the water change as a woman walks by. Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possibl e without itshelpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output. However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. The model might mix up directions and find it hard to describe events in the right order. One possible reason is that Sora learns each basic unit of a video, known as a spacetime patch (时空补丁), independently.Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting network security professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals.32. What is the main focus of paragraph 2 and 3A. Sora’s development.B. Sora’s diversity.C. Sora’s capabilities.D. Sora’s popularity.33. Why does the author provide the example in paragraph 5A. To highlight Sora’s potential safety risks.B. To illustrate Sora’s existing limitations.C. To showcase Sora’s perfect performance.D. To explain the concept of a spacetime patch.34. What can we know about Sora up to nowA. It has been made available to various industries.B. Its commercial release has been called off.C. It has exposed alarming security issues.D. It is undergoing testing and improvement.35. What’s the best title for the textA. Sora: Lead the way in creating videos.B. Sora: Surpass existing ChatGPT.C. Sora:Generate a rich variety of videos.D. Sora:A perfecttext-to-video AI model.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分12.5 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me."Soon the water rose to Smith's waist. At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck. "Grab the rope, "shouted the pilot. "I'll pull you up.""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me. "But after hours of struggling with water, poor exhausted Smith drowned and went to his reward. As he arrived at the Pearly Gates, Smith met God and complained about this.

Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.63. You can see the book because_______.A. your eyes are close to itB. it reflects some of the sunlightC. it has light of its ownD. your eyesight can get to it64. The underlined word “luminous” means_______.A. visibleB. all colorsC. giving off lightD. sunlight65. ________ have light of their own.A. The sun and the moonB. The stars and the earthC. The sun and the starsD. The moon and the earth66. Which of the following is true?A. All the things you can see give off light.B. Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.C. Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.D. The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.DMost of us know about the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Peace Prize, but few of us know anything about the man who set them up. His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize?Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund. He wanted the interest from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from.Alfred Nobel had given his whole life to his studies and work and to the benefits of mankind. He made money all by his own efforts, but he left the world share his wealth. His inventions and wealth stay with the world for ever.67. Alfred’s business was _____.A. making and selling explosivesB. not making and selling weaponsC. making explosives and selling weaponsD. making weapons and selling explosives68. Nobel wanted to set up the Nobel Peace Prize because _____.A. he made enough moneyB. he liked to live in a peaceful worldC. he hated warD. he wanted to get more interest from the fund69. Nobel Prizes come from _____.A. all Nobel’s money in the fundB. all Nobel’s money in his companyC. all the interest from the fundD. some of the interest in the fund70.
