A tree planting initiative in Kenya has seen over 30,000 trees being planted. The Green Generation Initiative is a Kenyan charity that has been planting trees to counter climate change and the reduction in forest in the East African nation since 2016.
Founded by climate activist Elizabeth Wathuti, the initiative's primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools and addressing food insecurity in the region through planting fruit trees. Since its foundation, over 30,000 trees have been planted in Kenya, while thousands of school children have not just planted trees but adopted them to ensure that young people learn the importance of acting as a guardian of the health of the environment. The trees have recorded a survival rate of over 98 percent, as they continue growing from young trees to maturity.
Speaking to world leaders at the recent UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (COP26)，Elizabeth issued a serious warning about the threat of climate change: “Over two million of Kenyans are facing climate related starvation. In 2025, half of the world's population will be facing water shortage. By the time I'm 50, the climate crisis will displace over 80 million people in sub Saharan Africa alone.”
Elizabeth said, “I have been doing what I can.Inspired by the great Wangari Maathai, I founded a tree growing initiative that enhances food security for young Kenyans. So far, we have grown 30，000 fruit trees, providing desperately needed nutrition for thousands of children.” “Every day we see that when we look after the trees, they look after us. We are the adults on this Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water, ”she added.
4. What is the initiative intended for
A. Making policies.
B. Raising money.
C. Educating adults.
D. Fighting climate change.
5. What crisis are Kenyans encountering at present

C. Water shortage. D. Economic risks.

Bullet comments—comments which fly across the screen on certain video platforms—represent a ·modern approach to communication that young people use in cyberspace to express their ideas, emotions and feelings. When looking back, however, they are a good reminder of what was hot or trending in the past year.
On Dec 15,2023, Bilibili, a Chinese video-sharing platform, picked “Ah ” as the Bullet Comment of the Year. In 2023, “Ah ” appeared more than 13.2 million times on Bilibili as a bullet comment, according to Dazhong Daily.
Today, young people in China use “Ah ” to express their surprise and amazement. User Mo Xin filmed himself writing down the ancient Chinese text Hard Is the Road to Shu (《蜀道难》) in one stroke (一笔) and subsequently uploaded the video to Bilibili. This feat (壮举) resulted in the video winning the most “Ah ”bullet comments on the platform.
China’s huge technological advancements have also generated “Ah ” comments from Bilibili users. In August, China made a breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion (可控核聚变) technology. Its new-generation “artificial sun” Huanliu-3 looks to open new doors in the world of nuclear fusion. Videos announcing this news were inundated (淹没) in “Ah ” comments.
Though simple and easily understandable, “Ah ” provides insights into young people’s interests. Their focus extends beyond mere entertainment, however. They also, use “Ah ” to engage mentaries, and scientific discoveries, indicating a deeper, more serious layer of interest. These “Ah ” comments reveal that young people are attentive to the world around them. “Ah ” has become their unique way of responding to contemporary events, using it as a tool to document today’s history.
Every year brings a new bullet comment of the year, but what never changes is how young people want their voices to be heard. Do you still remember which video got you to send an “Ah ” in 2023
8. What do we know about “Bullet comments” according to the text
A. They will remind others of your opinions.
B. They are an easy way to interact with others.
C. They enable us to think about the popular events.
D They are used in young people’s daily communication.
9. Why is Hard Is the Road to Shu mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To prove the function of “Ah ”. B. To argue for the benefit of “Ah ”.
C. To explain the popularity of “Ah ”. D. To clarify the development of “Ah ”.
10. What are the features of “Ah ”
A. Concrete and modern. B. Easy and accessible.
C. Abstract but popular. D. Unique but meaningless.
11. Which of the following is likely to get most “Ah ” on Bilibili according to the text
A. Huawei made a breakthrough in 5G.
B. Southern little potatoes poured in Harbin.
C. The Moutai-flavoured coffee came into the market.
D. China, Singapore mutual visa-free policies will boost tourism.
D
As I write this, a Bob Seger song is stuck in my head. It’s been playing on repeat ever since I heard it in a movie. I hated it a lot when it first came out years ago, and I still really hate it now. Why, oh why, does an earworm happen This phenomenon, known as an earworm, is both fascinating and annoying. Earworms are a type of auditory imagery, where we perceive a tone without actually hearing it. When a familiar song is heard and suddenly stopped, some areas of the brain become overly activated in expectation of hearing the rest of the song, and then it fills in the missing pieces.
Anyone can experience earworms, but certain personality characteristics, like openness to experience, may increase their frequency. You may have seen a popular TikTok recently of a guy saying earworms aren’t normal but are instead symptoms of ADHD (多动症) or OCD (强迫症). That’s generally not the case. “It is entirely normal to experience earworms: Over 90% of participants in large-scale surveys report having had earworms at least once a week, and they are not a symptom of any other underlying mental condition,” says Jakubowski. Interestingly, earworms aren’t all bad. Research indicates that they can enhance our ability to recall past events, as the repetitive nature of the song strengthens our memory.
There are several strategies to get rid of earworms. Listening to the entire song can help resolve the unfinished loop. Alternatively, distracting yourself with another melody or engaging in activities that require focus can also be effective. Chewing gum or eating something crunchy may interrupt the song playing in your head. Despite these strategies, sometimes the best approach is to simply accept the presence of the earworm and let it fade away naturally. In my case, trying to actively rid myself of the song only made it more persistent. It seems patience is key when dealing with these stubborn musical guests in our minds.
12. What is an earworm
A. A type of insect that affects hearing. B. A song that gets stuck in your head.
C. A medical condition related to the ears. D. An element missing in a song.
13. Which of the following statement is true about earworms
A. They cannot be controlled or stopped. B. They indicate underlying illness.
C. They only occur in certain individuals. D. They are normal phenomena.
14. What benefit can be expected of earworms
A. To enhance memory recall of earlier incidents.
B. To increase musical creativity and imagination.
C. To expand openness to new experiences.
D. To improve focus and concentration.
15. How does the author feel about earworms
A. Concerned and worried. B. Scientific but negative.
C. Annoyed but accepting. D. Excited and fascinated.
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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What motivates you to work or study harder Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve, or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you ___16___ But is one better than the other
A recent study looked at the effect of fear-based strategies on British secondary school students. It found that if a test is seen as important, and students are optimistic that they can succeed, then the fear of failure can be used successfully by teachers to motivate these learners. ___17___ In that case, it will in turn lead them to do worse on the test than they would have done otherwise. The study also found that if students are indifferent and don’t care about the test in the first place, then, unsurprisingly, the fear of failure is not likely to motivate them.
Entrepreneurs often run the risk of failure. It’s a fact that many new companies will fail. But does this motivate or hold back business people ___18___ The personal consequences of failure can be significant, and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them. A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving, as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues. ___19___ However, the study also showed that it can lead to increased delay of work, as people focus too much on what they personally fear, rather than what would be best, for the business. If someone is less confident about their business ideas, then they may find their decision-making negatively affected by their fears.
___20___ Fear can drive confident people to do better, but it can also expand our doubts and turn them into barriers.
A. Again, it’s not straightforward.
B. The answer, undoubtedly, is “yes”.
C. Taken together, fear-based motivation is complicated.
D. Generally speaking, good outcomes can be expected by teachers.
E. They may also be inspired to innovate and activate their business.
F. However, if students lack confidence, fear-based approaches could cause anxiety.
G. Leaders, managers and teachers often use one of these ideas to inspire people to achieve more.

47. 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。
When I was in middle school, my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest. I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil, so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did.
So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try.
I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice.
What did the horse think, as he sped through the night Did he get tired Have doubts Did he want to quit I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them.
When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care.
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。
A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news.

Founded by climate activist Elizabeth Wathuti, the initiative's primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools and addressing food insecurity in the region through planting fruit trees. Since its foundation, over 30,000 trees have been planted in Kenya, while thousands of school children have not just planted trees but adopted them to ensure that young people learn the importance of acting as a guardian of the health of the environment. The trees have recorded a survival rate of over 98 percent, as they continue growing from young trees to maturity.
Speaking to world leaders at the recent UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (COP26)，Elizabeth issued a serious warning about the threat of climate change: “Over two million of Kenyans are facing climate related starvation. In 2025, half of the world's population will be facing water shortage. By the time I'm 50, the climate crisis will displace over 80 million people in sub Saharan Africa alone.”
Elizabeth said, “I have been doing what I can.Inspired by the great Wangari Maathai, I founded a tree growing initiative that enhances food security for young Kenyans. So far, we have grown 30，000 fruit trees, providing desperately needed nutrition for thousands of children.” “Every day we see that when we look after the trees, they look after us. We are the adults on this Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water, ”she added.

As I write this, a Bob Seger song is stuck in my head. It’s been playing on repeat ever since I heard it in a movie. I hated it a lot when it first came out years ago, and I still really hate it now. Why, oh why, does an earworm happen This phenomenon, known as an earworm, is both fascinating and annoying. Earworms are a type of auditory imagery, where we perceive a tone without actually hearing it. When a familiar song is heard and suddenly stopped, some areas of the brain become overly activated in expectation of hearing the rest of the song, and then it fills in the missing pieces.
Anyone can experience earworms, but certain personality characteristics, like openness to experience, may increase their frequency. You may have seen a popular TikTok recently of a guy saying earworms aren’t normal but are instead symptoms of ADHD (多动症) or OCD (强迫症). That’s generally not the case. “It is entirely normal to experience earworms: Over 90% of participants in large-scale surveys report having had earworms at least once a week, and they are not a symptom of any other underlying mental condition,” says Jakubowski. Interestingly, earworms aren’t all bad. Research indicates that they can enhance our ability to recall past events, as the repetitive nature of the song strengthens our memory.
There are several strategies to get rid of earworms. Listening to the entire song can help resolve the unfinished loop. Alternatively, distracting yourself with another melody or engaging in activities that require focus can also be effective. Chewing gum or eating something crunchy may interrupt the song playing in your head. Despite these strategies, sometimes the best approach is to simply accept the presence of the earworm and let it fade away naturally. In my case, trying to actively rid myself of the song only made it more persistent. It seems patience is key when dealing with these stubborn musical guests in our minds.
12. What is an earworm
A. A type of insect that affects hearing. B. A song that gets stuck in your head.
C. A medical condition related to the ears. D. An element missing in a song.
13. Which of the following statement is true about earworms
A. They cannot be controlled or stopped. B. They indicate underlying illness.
C. They only occur in certain individuals. D. They are normal phenomena.
14. What benefit can be expected of earworms
A. To enhance memory recall of earlier incidents.
B. To increase musical creativity and imagination.
C. To expand openness to new experiences.
D. To improve focus and concentration.
15. How does the author feel about earworms
A. Concerned and worried. B. Scientific but negative.
C. Annoyed but accepting. D. Excited and fascinated.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了耳虫症时有发生，一项研究表明，90%的人都有过这种经历。文章解释了为什么会发生这种情况以及对付该情况的一些方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段“This phenomenon, known as an earworm, is both fascinating and annoying. Earworms are a type of auditory imagery, where we perceive a tone without actually hearing it.(这种现象被称为耳虫症，既令人着迷又令人讨厌。耳虫是一种听觉意象，我们在没有实际听到的情况下感知音调。)”可知，耳虫症是一个与耳朵有关的疾病。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“It is entirely normal to experience earworms: Over 90% of participants in large-scale surveys report having had earworms at least once a week, and they are not a symptom of any other underlying mental condition,(经历耳虫症是完全正常的：在大规模调查中，超过90%的参与者报告每周至少有一次耳虫症，而且它们不是任何其它潜在精神疾病的症状)”可知，耳虫症是正常现象。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“Interestingly, earworms aren’t all bad. Research indicates that they can enhance our ability to recall past events, as the repetitive nature of the song strengthens our memory.(有趣的是，耳虫症并不全是坏的。研究表明，它们可以增强我们回忆过去事件的能力，因为歌曲的重复性增强了我们的记忆。)”可知，耳虫症能增强对先前事件记忆的回忆。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段“I hated it a lot when it first came out years ago, and I still really hate it now. Why, oh why, does an earworm happen (几年前它刚出现的时候我非常讨厌它，现在我仍然非常讨厌它。为什么，哦，为什么，会发生耳虫症？)”以及第三段“Despite these strategies, sometimes the best approach is to simply accept the presence of the earworm and let it fade away naturally.(尽管有这些策略，有时最好的方法是简单地接受耳虫症的存在，让它自然消失。)”可知，作者对耳虫症感到厌烦，但也能接受。故选C项。

What motivates you to work or study harder Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve, or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you ___16___ But is one better than the other
A recent study looked at the effect of fear-based strategies on British secondary school students. It found that if a test is seen as important, and students are optimistic that they can succeed, then the fear of failure can be used successfully by teachers to motivate these learners. ___17___ In that case, it will in turn lead them to do worse on the test than they would have done otherwise. The study also found that if students are indifferent and don’t care about the test in the first place, then, unsurprisingly, the fear of failure is not likely to motivate them.
Entrepreneurs often run the risk of failure. It’s a fact that many new companies will fail. But does this motivate or hold back business people ___18___ The personal consequences of failure can be significant, and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them. A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving, as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues. ___19___ However, the study also showed that it can lead to increased delay of work, as people focus too much on what they personally fear, rather than what would be best, for the business. If someone is less confident about their business ideas, then they may find their decision-making negatively affected by their fears.
___20___ Fear can drive confident people to do better, but it can also expand our doubts and turn them into barriers.
A. Again, it’s not straightforward.
B. The answer, undoubtedly, is “yes”.
C. Taken together, fear-based motivation is complicated.
D. Generally speaking, good outcomes can be expected by teachers.
E. They may also be inspired to innovate and activate their business.
F. However, if students lack confidence, fear-based approaches could cause anxiety.
G. Leaders managers and teachers often use one of these ideas to inspire people to achieve more.
【答案】16. G 17. F 18. A 19. E 20. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了两种取得更多成就的心态，一种是对成功的憧憬，一种是对失败的恐惧。
【16题详解】
根据上文“What motivates you to work or study harder Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve, or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you (是什么激励你更加努力地工作或学习？是对成功的憧憬和你能实现的所有惊人的事情，还是对失败的恐惧和对所有可能出错的事情的担忧？)”以及后文“But is one better than the other (但是一个比另一个好吗？)”可知，上文提到了两种激励人们的方法，推测本句是在说明这些方法的应用。故G选项“领导者、管理者和老师经常使用其中一种想法来激励人们取得更多成就。”符合语境，故选G。
【17题详解】
根据后文“In that case, it will in turn lead them to do worse on the test than they would have done otherwise. (在这种情况下，这反过来会导致他们在考试中表现得更差。)”可知，本句是在说明会导致考试表现更差的情况。故F选项“然而，如果学生缺乏自信，基于恐惧的方法可能会导致焦虑。”符合语境，故选F。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Entrepreneurs often run the risk of failure. It’s a fact that many new companies will fail. But does this motivate or hold back business people (企业家常常冒着失败的风险。事实是，许多新公司将会倒闭。但这是激励还是阻碍了商人呢？)”以及后文“The personal consequences of failure can be significant, and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them. A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving, as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues. (失败对个人的影响可能很严重，因此创业者可能会更努力地工作以避免失败。一项针对英国和加拿大企业家的研究发现，对失败的恐惧可以提高解决问题的能力，因为人们有动力预测和解决潜在的问题。)”可知，本句主要回答上文失败是激励还是阻碍了商人的问题，且A选项中It对应上文this。故A选项“再次声明，这不是直截了当的。”符合语境，故选A。
【19题详解】
根据上文“A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving, as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues. (一项针对英国和加拿大企业家的研究发现，对失败的恐惧可以提高解决问题的能力，因为人们有动力预测和解决潜在的问题。)”可知，失败可以激励人们去预测和解决潜在的问题，推测本句承接上文，继续说明对失败的恐惧所带来的好处。故E选项“他们也可能受到启发去创新和激活他们的业务”符合语境，故选E。
【20题详解】
根据后文“Fear can drive confident people to do better, but it can also expand our doubts and turn them into barriers. (恐惧可以驱使自信的人做得更好，但它也可以扩大我们的疑虑，把它们变成障碍。)”可知，后文提到恐惧可以驱使自信的人做得更好，但也可以扩大我们的疑虑，把它们变成障碍，说明恐惧带来的动力具有两面性、复杂性。故C选项“综上所述，基于恐惧的动机很复杂。”符合语境，故选C。

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 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。
When I was in middle school, my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest. I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil, so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did.
So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try.
I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice.
What did the horse think, as he sped through the night Did he get tired Have doubts Did he want to quit I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them.
When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care.
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。

【答案】 A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news. I was informed that I won the first prize in the writing contest and that there would be an award presentation in two days. I was so happy to hear the news that I immediately shared it with my teacher. “I knew you’d win! I am proud of you. You made it!” he said excitedly. Then came the big day. When I was invited to the stage to receive the award, I expressed my thanks to my teacher. I said, “It’s you who make me fall in love with writing, my social studies teacher. Without your recognition and guidance, I couldn’t have written this article. Again thank you very much!”
I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation. My teacher was waiting for me. Holding my hands, he said “Congratulations! You are a good writer, so keep writing.” “You know I didn’t like writing before, but now I am crazy about it! I will try my best to create good works.” I said seriously. Since then, I have written many good works and now I am a famous writer. I owe my success to my social teacher who is a beacon in my life on the road to writing.
