PS VR2会是他的第一选择。故选C项。
B
When I bought a house in Portland four years ago, I immediately began designing my dream garden,
intending to remove the weeds and plant some vegetables or long-lasting flowers. I soon discovered, however, that
the soil was unproductive, clay-heavy and littered with stones. In previous, much tinier gardens, I’d fix it with a
few bags of high-quality soil from the nursery.
Replacing this vastly greater quantity of dirt was neither practical nor financially possible. Instead, I decided
to remediate (补救) what I already had.
The challenge before me was to revive the soil. Two core principles of modern agriculture can guide this
shift: minimizing soil disturbance and emphasizing biodiversity. In practice, growing crops by turns; prioritizing
organic inputs over chemical fertilizers; integrating crops, trees and livestock; and sheltering soil from being
washed away with cover crops, often work.
I tried to apply such methods in my garden. Where once there was only grass, I made a pond, a rock garden,
a wildflower field and raised beds for vegetables. I let plants grow and decompose by themselves in a natural way. I
also introduced different plants and revived its ecological communities.
In May, I decided to relocate a flowering plant. As I dug the plant out, all manner of life emerged.
Earthworms swung from the roots. A daddy longlegs hurried for shelter. Below the plant I even noticed the fine
试卷第8页，共27页white fungal mycelium (真菌菌丝).
Running my fingers through the soil, I understood, more clearly than ever before, that I transformed much
more than my yard - it completely changed the way I think about soil. It’s not simply as a medium for life, but as a
living entity (个体) in its own right. Although science still lacks an agreed definition of life, textbooks highlight
criteria widely considered to differentiate the living and nonliving. Soil meets many of them: It has a highly
organized structure. It has a capacity for active self-preservation. It grows. It breathes. And it can die.
24．What was the soil problem in the author’s garden?
A．Wet and salty. B．Poor and stony.
C．Dry and sandy. D．Acidic and weedy.
25．What was the focus of the author’s gardening methods?
A．Limiting plant variety. B．Adopting a high-tech approach.
C．Giving more intervention. D．Creating a sustainable environment.
26．Why does the author mention the replanting in May?
A．To introduce different species. B．To prove the garden shelters insects.
C．To show the soil has come to life. D．To explain the transplanting process.
27．What is conveyed in the last paragraph?
A．Soil has a soul. B．Life is well defined.
C．Life has complexity. D．Soil is the source of life.
【答案】24．B 25．D 26．C 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者改造花园土壤的过程，通过可持续方法恢复土壤生机，
并领悟到土壤如同有生命的存在。
24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“I soon discovered, however, that the soil was unproductive, clay-heavy and
littered with stones. (然而，我很快发现土壤贫瘠，粘土多，到处都是石头。)”可知，作者花园里的土壤问题
是贫瘠且多石的。故选B。
25．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Two core principles of modern agriculture can guide this shift: minimizing
soil disturbance and emphasizing biodiversity. (现代农业的两个核心原则可以指导这一转变：尽量减少对土壤
的干扰并强调生物多样性。)”以及后续描写作者尝试应用这些方法，包括让植物自然生长和分解，引入不
同的植物和恢复其生态群落等，可推断出作者园艺方法的重点是创造一个可持续的环境。故选D。
26．推理判断题。根据第五段“In May, I decided to relocate a flowering plant. As I dug the plant out, all
manner of life emerged. Earthworms swung from the roots. A daddy longlegs hurried for shelter. Below the plant I
even noticed the fine white fungal mycelium (真菌菌丝). (五月份，我决定移栽一株开花的植物。当我把这株植物挖出来时，各种各样的生命出现了。蚯蚓从根部悬垂下来，一只长腿蜘蛛急忙寻找遮蔽处。在植物下
方，我还注意到了细小的白色真菌菌丝。)”以及最后一段中“Running my fingers through the soil, I
understood, more clearly than ever before, that I transformed much more than my yard - it completely changed the
way I think about soil. (我用手指划过土壤，比以往任何时候都更清楚地意识到，我改变的不仅仅是我的院
子——它完全改变了我对土壤的看法。)”可推知，作者提到五月的重新种植是为了展示土壤已经恢复了活
力。故选C。
27．主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“It’s not simply as a medium for life, but as a living entity (个体) in its own
right. Although science still lacks an agreed definition of life, textbooks highlight criteria widely considered to
differentiate the living and nonliving. Soil meets many of them: It has a highly organized structure. It has a capacity
for active self-preservation. It grows. It breathes. And it can die. (它不仅仅是一种承载生命的介质，而是一个独
立的生命体。尽管科学界对生命的定义尚未达成一致，但教科书强调了一些广泛用于区分生物与非生物的
标准。土壤符合其中的许多标准：它具有高度有序的结构，具备积极自我保护的能力，能够生长，能够呼
吸，并且也可能会死亡。)”可知，最后一段传达的是“土壤有灵魂”的意思。故选A。
C
Past research has shown the negative effects of too much sugar intake on health, which has informed
recommendations to limit consumption of “free” or added sugar to less than 10% of a person’s daily caloric intake.
Still, researchers in China and the United States felt that before developing detailed policies for sugar
restriction, the quality of existing evidence needs to be comprehensively evaluated, according to a study published
in the journal The BMJ.
In a big study that looked at 73 reviews and 8,601 smaller studies, eating a lot of added sugar was linked to a
much higher chance of 45 bad health problems, including diabetes (糖尿病), obesity, high blood pressure, heart
attack, cancer, depression, and early death.
Free sugars are those added during the processing of foods, packaged as table sugar, and naturally occurring
in honey, fruit juice, vegetable juice and similar products in which the cellular (细胞的) structure of the food has
been broken down, according to the FDA．This category does not include sugars naturally occurring in dairy or
structurally whole fruits and vegetables.
“Whole food carbohydrates (碳水化合物) take longer to break down into simple sugars,” said Dr. Maya
Adam, a professor at Stanford University School of Medicine. “This means that whole grains don’t cause the same
increases in blood sugar that we experience when we eat simple sugars. Blood sugar increases are the basic cause
试卷第10页，共27页of health problems in the long run.”
The findings suggest people should circumscribe free sugar intake to less than 25 grams per day. There are
some changes you can make. Be aware of what you’re putting in your body by reading nutrition labels when
shopping — even the ones on foods you might not think of as sweet, such as bread and yogurts. These foods
usually have lots of added sugar, and it adds up, Adam said.
Cooking and baking at home more often is one of the best ways to reduce sugar intake, said Brooke
Aggarwal, a professor at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. Getting enough good-quality sleep on a
regular basis would also help “as we tend to choose foods higher in sugar when we’re tired,” she added.
All in all, we should cut back on our consumption of added sugar to less than 10% of a person’s daily caloric
intake. After all, eating too much “free sugar” has many negative health effects.
28．What needs to be done before making detailed policies to restrict sugar?
A．Make a detailed category. B．Investigate the sugar market.
C．Check the existing evidence. D．Monitor products containing sugar.
29．What can be inferred from Dr. Maya Adam’s words in paragraph 5?
A．Whole grains are more nutritious. B．Whole food carbohydrates don’t break.
C．The rise of blood sugar is a long process.D．Simple sugars raise blood sugar rapidly.
30．What does the underlined word “circumscribe” in paragraph 6 mean?
A．Limit. B．Increase. C．Ignore. D．Promote.
31．What is the author’s attitude to the consumption of added sugar?
A．Supportive. B．Critical. C．Doubtful. D．Cautious.
【答案】28．C 29．D 30．A 31．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项研究：摄入太多糖分对健康的危害。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段“Still, researchers in China and the United States felt that before developing
detailed policies for sugar restriction, the quality of existing evidence needs to be comprehensively evaluated,
according to a study published in the journal The BMJ.(不过，根据发表在《英国医学杂志》上的一项研究，中
国和美国的研究人员认为，在制定详细的限糖政策之前，需要对现有证据的质量进行全面评估)”可知，在
制定详细的限糖政策前，需要综合评估现有证据的质量。故选C。
29．推理判断题。根据第五段““Whole food carbohydrates (碳水化合物) take longer to break down into
simple sugars,” said Dr. Maya Adam, a professor at Stanford University School of Medicine. “This means that
whole grains don’t cause the same increases in blood sugar that we experience when we eat simple sugars. Blood
sugar increases are the basic cause of health problems in the long run.”(‘全食物碳水化合物需要更长的时间才能分解成单糖，’斯坦福大学医学院教授玛雅·亚当博士说。‘这意味着全谷物不会像我们吃单糖那样导致血
糖升高。从长远来看，血糖升高是健康问题的根本原因。’)”可知，全谷物碳水化合物分解成单糖的时间
更长，因此全谷物不会像我们食用单糖时那样引起相同程度的血糖升高。由此推测出，单糖会使血糖快速
升高。故选D。
30．词句猜测题。根据第一段“Past research has shown the negative effects of too much sugar intake on health,
which has informed recommendations to limit consumption of “free” or added sugar to less than 10% of a person’s
daily caloric intake.(过去的研究表明，摄入过多的糖会对健康产生负面影响，因此建议将‘游离’糖或添加
糖的摄入量限制在每日卡路里摄入量的10%以下)”提到过多糖摄入对健康有负面影响，建议将‘游离’或
添加糖的摄入量限制在每日热量摄入的10%以下。下文“free sugar intake to less than 25 grams per day(游离
糖的摄入量在每天25克以下)”提到游离糖摄入量每天少于25克，结合语境，“circumscribe”在此处表示对
游离糖摄入量进行限制，此句指游离糖的摄入量限制在每天25克以下，划线词 circumscribe 意思是“限
制”。故选A。
31．推理判断题。根据最后一段“All in all, we should cut back on our consumption of added sugar to less than
10% of a person’s daily caloric intake. After all, eating too much “free sugar” has many negative health effects.(总
而言之，我们应该将添加糖的摄入量减少到每日热量摄入的 10%以下。毕竟，吃太多的‘游离糖’对健康
有很多负面影响)”以及文章强调了过量摄入糖分对健康的负面影响并建议限制摄入量可知，作者对添加糖
的摄入持谨慎态度。故选D。
D
“Neurons (神经元) that fire together, wire together.” Perhaps you have heard this oft-quoted phrase of
psychologist Donald Hebb and wondered what it means.
To find this out, you need to understand “neuroplasticity“ first. Your brain can change, and that process is
called neuroplasticity. Stimuli (刺激) cause a response and changes in your brain. The stimuli can be external, such
as taking up a new hobby, or internal, such as a golfer imagining the perfect putt (推杆) just before actually
stepping up and putting. Every time your brain responds to stimuli, an electrical impulse (脉冲) causes either the
formation of a new synaptic (突触的) connection or the strengthening of an existing connection. This is what Hebb
meant with his theory about firing and wiring together. By contrast, if you stop doing an activity, the synaptic
connection can reduce through a lack of use.
There is a healthy competition always going on inside your brain to maintain synaptic connections. This is
healthy because the connections being used “win” and maintain their strength. Strong connections make a task
试卷第12页，共27页easier.
This competition helps explain why 10, 000 hours of practice is presented as a path to expertise. You will
have repeated an action so often and for so long that it simply becomes second nature and feels effortless. In
comparison, trying a task for the first time, or picking up an old task after a long break, can feel challenging or
energy-consuming at first. Why? Because the synaptic connections don’t exist or have weakened. You have to work
harder to perform that task.
The good news is that your healthy brain-at any age-can learn, grow, and adapt to the changing world around
you. Stated differently, the old idea that you peak by 40 or 45 and from that point onwards, your mind and life go
downhill is not supported by 30 years of neuroscientific research revealing a very different story about your brain’s
continued growth and development through all ages. Simply put, you can be more adaptive and resilient (有复原力
的) throughout your entire life if you make the right choices and take positive actions.
32．What does paragraph 2 mainly discuss?
A．How Hebb’s theory works. B．Where stimuli come from.
C．How an electrical impulse happens. D．Why neuroplasticity causes synaptic connection.
33．Which of the following reflects neuroplasticity?
A．Rome wasn’t built in a day. B．Practice makes perfect.
C．Every cloud has a silver lining. D．United we stand, divided we fall.
34．What causes beginners to find new tasks hard according to paragraph 4?
A．A lack of synaptic connections.
B．Limited access to necessary information.
C．Poor preparation for potential difficulties.
D．The huge amount of energy required for the tasks.
35．What can be concluded from years of neuroscientific research?
A．Mental decline is unavoidable.
B．People become less adaptive as they age.
C．People can have lifelong brain development.
D．Strong adaptability helps people stay positive.
【答案】32．A 33．B 34．A 35．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了神经可塑性的重要性及其对大脑的影响。
32．主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Every time your brain responds to stimuli,an electrical impulse (脉冲)
causes either the formation of a new synaptic (突触的) connection or the strengthening of an existing connection.This is what Hebb meant with his theory about firing and wiring together. (每次你的大脑对刺激作出反应时，一
个电脉冲会导致新的突触连接的形成或者现有连接的加强。这就是Hebb关于一起发射和连接的理论的意
思。)”可知，本段主要讨论Hebb理论的运作原理。故选A。
33．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“This competition helps explain why 10, 000 hours of practice is presented
as a path to expertise. You will have repeated an action so often and for so long that it simply becomes second
nature and feels effortless. (这场比赛有助于解释为什么10000小时的练习是通往专业技能的途径。你会频繁
地、长时间地重复一个动作，以至于它变成了你的第二天性，让你觉得毫不费力。)”可推知结论“熟能生
巧”体现了神经可塑性的原理。故选B。
34．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“In comparison, trying a task for the first time, or picking up an old task
after a long break, can feel challenging or energy-consuming at first. Why? Because the synaptic connections don’t
exist or have weakened. (相比之下，第一次尝试一项任务，或者长时间休息后重新拾起一项旧任务，刚开始
会感到有挑战或耗费精力。为什么？因为突触连接不存在或已减弱。)”可知，根据第四段内容，初学者发
现新任务困难是由于缺乏突触连接。故选A。
35．推理判断题 根据最后一段中“The good news is that your healthy brain-at any age-can learn, grow,
and adapt to the changing world around you. Stated differently, the old idea that you peak by 40 or 45 and from that
point onwards, your mind and life go downhill is not supported by 30 years of neuroscientific research revealing a
very different story about your brain’s continued growth and development through all ages. Simply put,you can be
more adaptive and resilient (有复原力的) throughout your entire life if you make the right choices and take
positive actions. (好消息是，你健康的大脑——在任何年龄——都能学习、成长，并适应你周围不断变化的
世界。换句话说，你在40岁或45岁时达到顶峰，从那以后，你的思维和生活开始走下坡路的旧观点，并
没有得到30年神经科学研究的支持，这些研究揭示了一个非常不同的故事，关于你的大脑在各个年龄段的
持续生长和发展。简单地说，如果你做出正确的选择并采取积极的行动，你可以在你的一生中更有适应能
力和复原力。)”可知，研究表明人类的大脑可以终身发育。故选C。

阅读下面短文, 从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Every time I drive somewhere, I rely on the GPS (Global Positioning System) on my phone to guide me to my
destination. 36 . It makes me wonder: Is there anything I can do to improve my skills in finding the way?
The answer is yes. If you also want to gain confidence on the road or be less reliant on GPS to get around, here are
试卷第14页，共27页some steps you can take to boost your sense of direction.
Use landmarks to orient(确定方位) yourself
If you are unsure of your direction relative to home, landmarks can help you orient yourself. According to
Mary Hegarty, a cognitive(认知的) psychologist, ideal landmarks for orientation are large and far-away structures.
37 . Mary Hegarty lives in Santa Barbara. She uses the mountains there as landmarks and knows they are north
no matter where she is in the city. 38
Whether you’re going somewhere new or to a place you’ve been to loads of times, it is a good habit to turn
around and observe the view behind you. According to Hegarty, it helps you memorize the details of your route.
39 .
Understand the layout of the city
If you’re trying to figure out where you are in a new place, it helps to understand the basic street layout—the
arrangement of streets. The street layout often follows a certain pattern, with the grid(网格) pattern being quite
common among cities. 40 . It is divided into four sections and has streets that run three ways: north-south,
east-west and at an angle. To orient yourself, locate your position relative to the main directions.
A．Always follow the familiar paths
B．Be curious about your surroundings
C．Washington, D．C．is a typical example
D．Without it, not only would I be lost, I’d feel lost
E．GPS currently consists of 24 operational satellites
F．Examples include big signs, tall buildings, and bridges
G．Moreover, it offers you visual clues for finding your way back
【答案】36．D 37．F 38．B 39．G 40．C
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了提高方向感的一些方法步骤。
36．根据前文“Every time I drive somewhere, I rely on the GPS (Global Positioning System) on my phone to
guide me to my destination.(每次我开车去某个地方，我都会依靠手机上的GPS（全球定位系统）来指引我
到达目的地。)”提到了一个现象：每次开车都依靠手机上的 GPS导航去目的地，由此推知，设空句紧跟其
后，对该现象进行评论，以使话题继续。D选项“Without it, not only would I be lost, I’d feel lost(没有它，
我不仅会迷路，还会感到迷失)”是对前文话题的评论，承接上文，说明了 GPS对作者的重要性，且句中
“it”指代前文提及的“GPS”，前后衔接紧密。故选D项。
37．设空前文“According to Mary Hegarty, a cognitive psychologist, ideal landmarks for orientation are largeand far-away structures.(认知心理学家Mary Hegarty认为，理想的定向标志是巨大而遥远的结构。)”说理想
的用于确定方位的地标是大型且较远的建筑物，由此推知，设空句应具体举例，以使读者更加清晰。F选
项“Examples include big signs, tall buildings, and bridges(例子包括大标志、高层建筑和桥梁)”是对前文所说
的大型且远的地标具体举例。符合语境。故选F项。
38．该空属于一个小标题，需要概括后文内容。后文“Whether you’re going somewhere new or to a place
you’ve been to loads of times, it is a good habit to turn around and observe the view behind you.(无论你是去一个
新的地方，还是去一个你去过很多次的地方，转身观察身后的景象都是一个好习惯。)”提到不管去新地方
还是熟悉的地方，养成转身观察身后景象的习惯，也就是要对周围环境保持好奇。选项 B“Be curious about
your surroundings(对周围的环境保持好奇心)”可概括该部分内容，符合语境。故选B项。
39．根据前文“…it is a good habit to turn around and observe the view behind you. According to Hegarty, it
helps you memorize the details of your route.(……转身观察身后的景色是个好习惯。根据Hegarty的说法，它
可以帮助你记住路线的细节。)”提到转身观察身后的景色有助于记住路线细节，由此推知，设空句也是与
该话题有关，比如进一步说明这么做的好处。G选项“Moreover, it offers you visual clues for finding your
way back(此外，它为你提供了视觉线索，帮助你找到回去的路)”同样解释了好处，同时“Moreover”与前文
构成递进关系，前后衔接紧密。故选G项。
40．根据前文“The street layout often follows a certain pattern, with the grid pattern being quite common among
cities.(街道布局通常遵循某种模式，网格模式在城市中很常见。)”提到街道布局常常遵循一定模式，网格
模式在城市中很常见；后文“It is divided into four sections and has streets that run three ways…(它分为四个部
分，有三条街道……)”说它被分成四个部分且街道有三种走向等，说明设空句需要一个具体城市作为这种
布局的例子来进行说明。C选项“Washington, D. C. is a typical example(华盛顿特区就是一个典型的例子)”
提出了华盛顿特区作为例子，符合分析。故选C项。
第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)

had fun at their leisure.
On the ninety-minute 43 to our camp, we saw every animal that was in “The Lion King” and then

We saw zebras, leopards, wildebeests, and warthogs, all eating or resting or 45 on this grass-covered,
seemingly limitless plain.
“Have you seen a(n) 46 ?” people in other vehicles would ask.
“On our first day, we saw a lion eating a wildebeest.” I’d tell them.
That was like saying you’d seen one 47 a sandwich. It was 48 to watch him dive for his prey
(猎物), and tear its throat out. But such scenes were 49 ; most of the time, the animals were just following
their daily 50 .
The world can be a violent and cruel place, but that’s not the 51 you want to carry home with you.
Yes, wild animals are often 52 , but there’s still nature’s beauty to appreciate. Of course, not everyone can
53 with elephants, but look at that bird sitting on your feeder and at the spider that 54 got trapped in
your elevator. We’re all on a(n) 55 of one kind or another.

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。
On the eve of Thanksgiving Day, Emily, the proprietress of an inviting cafe, was in the process of concluding
her business operations subsequent to an eventful day. Since the demise of her spouse a few years prior, she had
consistently spent each Thanksgiving as a solitary individual, her progeny residing at a distance for college-level
education and merely making sporadic telephone calls.
As she rotated the signboard to display “Closed”, preparing to confront yet another desolate holiday
celebration, she observed a male individual seated on the frigid steps outside. He appeared to be in the latter part of
his fourth decade, attired in garments that had seen better days, his countenance etched with the marks of arduous
experiences. He raised his gaze, his eyes mirroring a blend of fatigue and unvoiced adversities. “Pardon me,
Madam,” he uttered in a low voice, “I have been deprived of a proper and satisfying meal for several days. Would it
be possible for you to spare a small portion?” Emily paused momentarily but promptly unlocked the door, gesturing
warmly to invite him in. “It is Thanksgiving Eve,” she declared with an amiable smile, “No individual ought to
experience hunger on this particular day.”
The male, who identified himself as James, expressed his gratitude and took a seat near the corner window.
Emily proceeded to prepare a substantial and nourishing repast: steaming hot pumpkin pie, freshly-baked bread,
and a roasted turkey. As James partook of the meal, he shared fragments of his life story — he had previously been
a truck driver, but had unfortunately lost his occupation, which subsequently led to the loss of his dwelling place
and compelled him to wander from one location to another. Emily listened with rapt attention, experiencing an
unforeseen surge of empathetic sentiment as she established a connection with this unfamiliar person.Upon the conclusion of the meal, James delved into his worn-out outer garment and produced a diminutive,
meticulously folded paper crane. “I crafted this an extended period ago,” he mentioned in a gentle tone. “It is the
final one in my possession. I desire for you to accept it, as a symbol of the benevolence you have demonstrated
today.” Moved by this gesture, Emily expressed her appreciation and, on a sudden impulse, proposed a part-time
employment opportunity at the cafe to James. James’s eyes filled with tears of thankfulness. “I would be honored to
accept,” he responded.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150左右；
