There are decisions we take on instinct, without even realising we are taking them.
Two years ago, I left Germany to do volunteering work. I had a couple of disappointing
experiences and a boring job in front of me. It was time to go. I found an interesting contact in a
small village in Portugal. In exchange for room and board,I would be working with animals in a
residence that hosted families with disabled people. And there I went, with just a backpack I was
ready to jump into a new adventure.
There, I cared for the pets living next to the residents, cleaning their yard, preparing food and
caring for them. Within a month I was in charge of all the other volunteers and the organization of
the daily work. After 5 months,I left again and moved to Catalonia, in Spain, to live with an Irish
family.They offered a roof and food on the passage of their house for abandoned animals I helped
care for.
During both experiences,I had the chance to discover beautiful little towns and lovely
villages.In Portugal, I walked on the coastline and explored those little towns on the top of the dry
hills. InSpain I visited Barcelona multiple times, discovering little by little all its corners.
Sometimes, my volunteering experience was complicated. I didn't speak any Portuguese and only a
bit of Spanish.But life out there was simple. It was so different from what I used to call“home”
before! Going back to previous habits took me time.
If you' re wondering if an international volunteering year gap is worth it, despite the uncertain
future and the social pressure, I say: go for it. Believe me, in various ways, you will be sure to return
transformed, perhaps even improved to a superior version of your former self. With a bit of luck, you
may also discover a new career path.
24. Why did the author choose to leave Germany to do volunteering work?
A. To make a change. B. To gain living skills.
C. To broaden his horizon. D. To add working experience.
25. What did the author mainly do during his trip?
A. Running an organization. B. Attending to animals.
C. Taking care of the disnbled. D. Preparing food for volunteers.
26. Which of the following can best describe the author's trip?
A. Simple. B、Romantic. C. Adventurous. D. Rewarding.
27. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Instinct, a key step for new career B. Backpacking,a jump to a new adventureC. Gap year, an escape from the reality D. Volunteering, a journey of self-discovery
C
Many companies have advertised a feature that enables users to employ AI as a recípe
generator assistant. In one demonstration, a user asks the virtual assistant for a meal plan with
ingredients (食材)they have, and the AI returns a list of recipes using those ingredients. In fact, the
employment of AI in the brainstorming stage is also gaining increasing popularity. While that seems
convenient, most of the press about the relationship between AI and cooking has been negative so
far.
For years, chefs on popular video platforms have staged cook-offs between“real” and AI
recipes,with the“real” chefs often winning. In 2022, Tasty, an online platform, compared a chocolate
cake recipe generated by an AI tool with one developed by a professional cook. While the AI recipe
baked up fine, the cook's recipe won in a blind taste test. The tasters preferred the cook's cake for its
not-too-sweet and juicer flavor compared to the AI cake.
Sarah and Kaitlin Leung are sisters who run a famous food blog. Their recipes go through a
long process. They brainstorm ideas, do research, and experiment a lot before testing each recipe up
to 40times. “We know that our readers are trusting us, so we try to make sure our recipe not only
works but is also easy to follow,” Sarah says. “The stories that surround these recipes and the
connections that we make with people through these recipes are priceless— it's so deeply human. By
comparison,the machine doesn't eat and the machine can't taste.”
“It's not all negative for me.” A software engineer Olson believes AI has a place in the recipe
development process. He adds, “but I don't think the technology is there to the point where you can
have an entirely AI-generated blog, although that would be a cool concept. Maybe someone should
try it and see how it goes.”
28. What can AI do in developing a recipe?
A. Planning the budget. B. Shortening cooking time.
C. Coming up with ideas. D. Demonstrating cooking methods.
29. What can we know about the competition launched by Tasty?
A. The AI tool was developed by a cook.
B. The result agrees with those of prior years.
C. The cook's cake tasted sweeter and juicier.
D. The comparison was based on the appearance.
30. How does the sisters ensure the quality of their recipes on their food blog?
A. By doing multiple trials. B. By learning the recipes from AI.
C. By using priceless ingredients. D. By following standard procedures.
31. What is Olson's attitude towards entirely AI-generated blogs?
A. Supportive. B. Concerned. C. Reserved. D. Critical.
D
In designing the robots of tomorrow, engineers have gained many of their inspirations from the
kingdom of creatures, with machines that mimic the way plants and animals move and sense theirenvironment.
In recent study, researchers at Cornell University have found that mycelia, the underground
parts of mushrooms, have the ability to sense chemical and biological signals and respond to
multiple inputs. By using the natural electrical signals of mycelia, the researchers found a new way
to control biohybrid (生物混合) robots, which can react to their surroundings better than traditional
man-made robots. With great efforts, two biohybrid robots were built: a soft robot shaped like a
spider and a wheeled robot. The robots responded to mycelia’ s signals by walking and rolling.They
also changed their position in response to light, demonstrating the mycelia's ability to react to outer
influences.
However, finding a way to integrate mushrooms and robots requires more than just gardening
and technical skills. “You have to have a background in mechanical engineering, electronics, some
neurobiology(神经生物学), and even some kind of signal processing. All these fields come together
to build this kind of system,” said Shepherd, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.
“Living systems respond to touch, light, heat and even some unknowns, like signals. This is
why we believe that if we want to build future robots, they must be able to work in unexpected
environments,” said Mishra, a research associate in the Organic Robotics Lab of Cornell
University.“By growing mycelia into the electronics of a robot, we were able to allow the biohybrid
machine to sense and respond to the environment. In this case we used light as the input, but in the
future it will be chemical. The potential for future robots could be to sense soil chemistry in row
crops and decide when to add more fertilizer(肥料),” said Shepherd.
32. What does the underlined word“mimic” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Control. B. Judge. C. Change. D. Copy.
33. Why are mycelia used in robot design?
A. For their mushroom shape. B. For their perception and response abilities.
C. For their chemical potential. D. For their chemical and biological influences.
34. What does Shepherd emphasize about the process in paragraph 3?
A. Technical skills. B. Scientific methods.
C. Subject integration. D. Innovative application.
35. Which of the following can be the potential application for future biohybrid robots?
A. Monitoring soil condition. B. Designing electronic systems.
C. Replacing human experience. D. Strengthening unknown signals.

Globalization has led to a sort of“melting pot” phenomenon. People from different cultures are
coming together like never before. Take food, for instance. You can find sushi in São Paulo, tacos
inTokyo, and pizza in Pakistan. It's amazing, right? But there's another side. 36 Their unique
traditions might start to disappear.
37 TV shows, movies, and music are consumed worldwide. But is this leading to culturalhomogenization(均匀化)? Are we all starting to dress, talk, and act the same way? It's a worrying
thought. But on the other hand, media can also provide a platform for diverse voices.
Language is another hot topic when it comes to globalization. English has become the lingua
franca(通用语) of the world. 38 But what does this mean for other languages? Some linguists
estimate that half of the world's more than 6000 languages will have disappeared by the end of this
century. That is what really needs our attention.
Education is also hugely impacted by globalization. Students are no longer limited to their
local schools or universities. 39 This leads to a more global perspective, but it also means that
educational standards are becoming more uniform. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
So, what's the conclusion on globalization and its impact on culture? Well, it's
complicated.There are definitely benefits —— increased diversity, greater understanding, and more
opportunities for cultural exchange. But there are also disadvantages —— cultural homogenization,
loss of traditional practices, and the threat of a global monoculture. 40 Globalization isn't a one-
way street. It's a process of giving and taking, of integrating and borrowing. And it's up to us to
shape it in a way that preserves the best of our cultures and also accepts the new.
A. The key is to accept the complexity.
B. They are influenced by globalization.
C. They can study anywhere in the world.
D. Small, local cultures might feel threatened.
E. Media plays a huge role in cultural globalization.
F. It's the language of business, science, and the internet.
G. However, the spread of English can also contribute to global issues.

Chinese opera, a special mix of music, dance, and dialogue, stands 56 a cornerstone of
traditional Chinese performing arts. 57 root of Chinese opera goes back to ancient celebrations
and folk dances during the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BCE) and it has developed into many different
local styles, each with its own unique charm. The most representative one is PekingOpera, which
58 (appear) during the Qing Dynasty (1644–1912) and is known for its stylized movements,
complex face painting, and unique vocal(唱腔) style. 59 (similar),Chaoju (Teochew Opera),
originating from Guangdong province, is famous for its graceful singing and lively performances,
often 60 (feature) stories of local legends and historical events.
Chinese opera helps pass down cultural values and traditions, with stories often 61 (draw)
from history and folk stories. The Legend of the White Snake, for instance, tells the story ofBai
Suzhen, the white snake spirit, falling in love with a human, through 62 themes of love and
betrayal (背叛) are explored. Costumes and makeup are also 63 (form) of visual storytelling.
Each color and pattern has specific meanings: red symbolizes loyalty (忠诚),while white represents
dishonesty. While preserving its heritage, Chinese opera also welcomes modernity. 64 (engage)
modern audience, adaptations combine traditional elements with new themes and technologies, suchas multimedia and special effects. This timeless art form continues to develop, reflecting China's
cultural 65 (deep) and social changes.

A Report On Daily Physical Activities
第二节 (满分25分)
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。
We sometimes take our loved ones' concern for granted and show our worst mood to the
family.During my growth, an experience in senior high school stood out in my memory.
As a taxi driver, my dad drove through chaotic streets with heavy traffic. Sometimes he had to
deal with rude passengers and struggle with thin income. Despite these, he never complained. Dad
was devoted to our family and cared much about us. The sunflower keychain I had given him as
aFather's Day gift in fifth grade had long lost its shine. Yet he had it attached to his leather belt
everywhere he went. Every day, he simply headed out early in his worn-out uniform with two
patches(补丁) and returned late with a tired but warm smile. When we joked about his“fashionable
patches”,he'd laugh and say, “These are my medals of honor!”
As I entered senior high school, my world became overwhelming. Math problems danced in
my head. My grades didn't improve but even declined. School pressures skyrocketed. Even small
things would set me off. Dad's daily“How's school today?” felt like another weight on my back. I
was mean to his inquiries, even though I knew he meant well.
One day after a frustrating exam, I returned home, my backpack strap(肩带) cutting into my
shoulder. Dad was calculating the taxi bills then. “Hey,” he said, with a smile on his face, “How is
……”
“STOP IT!” The words exploded out of me. “You' re always in my business! Can't youjust...leave me ALONE?”
He froze. The pen he was holding rolled off the table. His face fell, as if I'd thrown cold water
on him. Then he stood up slowly and walked to his room. The door shut softly— not a slam(砰地关
上), just a quiet click— that somehow hurt me worse.
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。
I was shocked myself and my eyes fell on the keychain, my mind racing.
I knocked at the door and it opened.

范文一：
A Report On Daily Physical Activities
In our school, students are called for/ urged to spend no less than 2 hours a day on physical
activities. Here come the results of a survey on the length of time for physical workouts in our class.To our delight, about two thirds of my classmates meet the recommended exercise duration, by
engaging in various physical activities, ranging from running to ball games like basketball and ping-
pong. However, the rest exercise for less than 1 hour per day, citing reasons such as heavy academic
workload or lack of interest.
From my point of view, regular and sufficient exercise not only improves fitness but also
enhances focus and mood.Our school can introduce engaging alternatives and reschedule sports
periods to help more students embrace healthy life styles.(126词)
范文二：
A Report On Daily Physical Activities
Our school attaches importance to students’ overall health, encouraging daily physical activities
for at least 2hours. So a survey was conducted to learn about how much time my classmates spend
on daily workouts and the results are less than satisfactory.
It is shown that only 30% of the students achieve the goal while over 60% spend less than 1 hour
on physical activities, mainly due to heavy academic burdens and limited access to sports facilities.
Additionally, some admit they prioritize study over exercise.
To improve this situation, in my view, our school can create more exercise zones as well as
organizing more class-based sports events and students should balance study and exercise. After all,
a strong body a strong body fuels a sharp mind!(125词)

I was shocked myself and my eyes fell on the keychain, my mind racing. I realized what I had
done. Dad had only asked out of care, yet I had yelled out at him. His kindness had been met with
my rudeness. The keychain, once a symbol of my love for him, now seemed a reminder of my
wrongdoing. My throat tightened and tears welled up. Iknew I had to make things right. I wiped my
eyes, took a deep breath, and walked to his door.
I knocked at the door and it opened. Dad stood there and Icould tell he was upset. “Dad, I'm so
sorry,” I whispered. “Ididn't mean to hurt you. I' ve been stressed and took it out on you. Please
forgive me.” Dad looked at me, his expression softening. He pulled me into a hug. “I know you' ve
been under pressure.” he said gently. “I love you,son.” At that moment, I understood how much his
love meant to me. I vowed to never take his kindness for granted again. (155词)
范文2：
I was shocked myself and my eyes fell on the keychain, my mind racing. The faded sunflower
had accompanied my father through countless dawns and dusks. I remembered his tired yet warm
smile every evening. Despite his exhausting job and the challenges he faced, he always showed me
love and concern. I realized how ungrateful I'd been. The quiet click of his door still echoed in my
ears, but louder was the voice in my heart: I had to make this right.
I knocked at the door and it opened. Dad stood there, his eyes weary but warm. I looked up at
him, tears misting in my eyes. “Dad, I'm so sorry.” I murmured, my voice trembling. “It's okay, kid. I
know you' ve been under a lot of stress.” Putting his arm around my shoulder, Dad said he was
always here for me. At that moment, I got to understand that family love should never be taken forgranted, and those who care for us most deserve our kindness. (147词)
