Dear Sherlock,
As the chairman of Student Union, I am, with heartfelt sincerity, writing to invite you to deliver a speech concerning daily exercise.
The speech is scheduled at 5:00 p. m. this Friday in the stadium. The reason why we choose this theme is, initially, students’ insufficient awareness of exercise in daily life. Burdened with loads of schoolwork, seldom do students spare time for doing exercise. Additionally, taking into account the national appealing to cultivate all-round students, practicing exercise enables us to be qualified graduates.
Your accepting the invitation would be highly appreciated, and you, a sport enthusiast, can undoubtedly juice the speech up and make it reach a wider audience.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. Each class Mr. Jenkins taught her turned into an adventure of discovery, where numbers and shapes combined to create a symphony of logic and imagination magically. She started to admire the elegance and harmony in variables and concepts, just as she would appreciate the balance in her paintings. Tolerant and firm, she began to tackle her homework with a newfound enthusiasm, keen to unveil the mysteries hidden in it. Not only was she now counting down the minutes until their next session, but her homework errors had witnessed an incredibly significant drop. Shortly, she completed the mid-term exams, with the results to be revealed sooner.
Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. Her stomach was a mix of butterflies and
anticipation, a feeling she had never experienced for a math test before. Her fingers were icy as she tightly grasped for her report card, heart pounding in throat. However, the moment she scanned the score, what caught her eye was a bold “A” in red ink. It was more than just a letter; it was a symbol of her transformation, a reward to the hours of hard work and the belief Mr. Jenkins had placed in her. Finally, Emily felt a total relief with a sweet peace flooding into her. Maths was just her cup of tea and no limits were impossible to break through with a strong will and proper guidance.
详细解析（仅供参考）
阅读理解
A篇
【语篇导读】本文是应用文,介绍了四处露营场地。
21.A。细节题。根据第一个小标题下的“Various group tours are at your service.(各类团体游的类型都有提供。)"可知,Madison对于团体游览最合适。
22.B。细节题。根据第二个小标题下的“Showers are beyond reach”以及第四个小标题下的“Showers are under maintenance.”可知,两处的洗浴服务都不可使用。
23.D。推断题。根据“Tips &Rules”小标题下的“ ..other than a designated campground is not permitted”可知,露营场地的停车有指定地点。
B篇
【语篇导读】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了Mohaupt 作为一个北极科研团队中的后勤人员却发挥着巨大的作用。
24.C。作者通过描述Mohaupt及同事的工作场景来引出主题。
25.C。根据第二段中的“Keeping a lookout for bears was a regular duty for Mohaupt, …MOSAiC----the largest Aretic research exploration in history.”以及“The project, consisting of roughly 300 people, including scientists and coordinators, has collected...”"等描述确定A,B、D为错误答案。由“For months, the exploration operated inconstant darkness while polar bears wandered nearby, storms rocked the ship and the ice shifted and cracked."得知该组织的工作条件很艰苦。
26.D。从倒数第二段中的“Tasked with the security of the mission, Mohaupt designed an extensive training course for the participants in which they learnt how to avoid the danger, like storm-rocking and ice-cracking.”以及最后一段中的""She was there to make sure that we were protected, ‘said one of them. ‘Mohaupt is certainly the champion in the field.’”的描述得出Mohaupt是很专业而且很负责任的人。
27.B。由最后一段科学家的评价可以得出,他们对Mohaupt的态度是赞扬,感激的。
C篇
【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了情感勒索及其过程,最后提出面对情感勒索应该怎么做。
28.B。根据第二段“If you have had experiences with any of these cases, then you are the victim of emotional blackmail(勒索). This style of handle controls you through your emotions. Fear, obligation and guilt—FOG—are used by an emotional blackmailer to get what they want from people."可知, emotional blackmail 是指第一段描述的那些情形。这种行为是通过如害怕.责任感和内疚之类的情感来控制他人,以从他人身上得到自己想要的东西。
29.C。根据第四段中的“After this kind of statement is stage two: Resistance. The victim often avoids the blackmailer or suggests alternatives instead of saying no."可知, 第二阶段是反抗。受害者在此阶段一般会避免与情感勒索者碰面或者他们会提出其他的方案而不是直接拒绝。
30.A。根据画线词前“The victim doesn’t want the blackmailer to make good on their threats
so obedience(顺从), which is stage five, often leaves the victim feeling guilty or.."可知, 受害者不希望勒索者兑现他们的威胁, 所以服从, 而服从会让人感觉guilty(内疚的)或者愤愤不平的。这道题的关键是理清句子结构。
31.B。根据主题句“What can you do ”以及本段内容*First, recognize if you are being pressured, threatened or controlled. Stay calm, so you can consider other possibilities. Identify your triggers; don’t be pressured into an immediate response. Offer a compromise. Tell the blackmailer how you feel, and give them a chance to acknowledge their behavior and change. If they won’t, walk away from the relationship. Under no circumstances should you let your fears be used against you.”可知,这是作者提出的避免被情感勒索的具体步骤。
D篇
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。文章说明了科学家对Permian-Triassic时期的大灭绝的原因有了新的发现,即持续强烈的海洋厄尔尼诺现象出现,全球气候震荡数十年。
32.A。根据第一段最后一句“So, what wiped out almost all life on land, including plants and usually resilient insects, has remained a source of mystery." 可知, 使地球上几乎所有生物灭绝的真相一直是个谜。再根据第二段“One new study, published in the journal Science and co-led by the University of Bristol and China University of Geosciences (Wuhan), has shed new light. Tremendous ocean warming El Niio events were the key, with global conditions swinging wildly over decades."可知,全篇文章探讨了新发现的“巨大的使海洋升温的厄尔尼诺现象是导致了地球上几乎所有生物灭绝的真相,当时全球气候不稳定了几十年。”
33.D。根据第三段“The scale of Permian-Triassic warming was revealed by studying oxygen isotopes(同位素)in the fossilized(石化的) tooth material of tiny extinct swimming organisms called conodonts(牙形虫).By studying the temperature record of conodonts from around the world, the researchers were able to show remarkable temperature instability, especially in the low and mid latitudes."可知,科学家是通过研究一种微小的已灭绝的浮游微生物牙形虫的化石中的氧同位素来记录当时的温度,再通过广泛的采样得知这种温度不稳定覆盖了所有地方,尤其是低、中纬度地区。
34.D。根据第四段中的“Species were simply not equipped to adapt or evolve quickly enough.
”可知第①句错误,这些
物种没法适应或快速进化。根据第五段中的“The results of the climate modeling also help explain the abundant charcoal(木炭) found in rock layers of that age."可知第②句正确,在那个时期的岩石层里发现了大量的煤炭。根据“Wildfires became very common in a drought-prone climate."可知第③句正确,当时的气候干燥,野火发生频繁。根据“Earth got stuck in a crisis state where the land was burning and the oceans lifeless. There was nowhere to hide.”可知第④句正确,地球变成了一个炙热的星球。
35.B。根据最后一段中的“ In recent years El Nino events have caused major changes. 2023
2024 was one of the hottest years on record globally due to a strong El Niio in the Pacific, which was further worsened by increased human-induced CO driving catastrophic drought and fires around the world."可知,当前厄尔尼诺现象也造成了巨大的变化,2023—2024年成了有记录以来全球最热的一年。这归因于太平洋的强厄尔尼诺现象也进一步受到了全球大量的人类产生的二氧化碳驱动的灾难性干旱和火灾的影响。再根据*Fortunately, events like this so far have only lasted one to two years at a time."可知,幸运的是,像这样的现象目前一次只持续一两年。从而引申出来,现在没有Permian-Triassic时期的海洋温变现象那么严重,所以我们暂时不用那么悲观。”The cloud has a silver lining” 意思为在当前的糟糕的气候变化下,希望仍然存在。
七选五
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了怎样让自己的观点有影响力、说服力。
36.D。根据前文"Humans have a need to share their beliefs and values with other people.”"可知,人类都爱与他人分享自己的信仰和价值观念。且后文"This has a solid logic: Sharing emotions and opinions can lead to imitation(模仿), which can in turn create unity and enhance relationships.”在解释其中的原因,因此设空处与前文关系更加紧密,都是讲的是一种分享现象。
37.F。根据前文“Besides creating a bond, another reason you might want someone to model themselves on your feelings is to get them to alter their views.”可知,本段讲的是让人模仿你的感受的另一个目的是让他们改变自己的观点。选项中的"the goal"正是指的这个目的。且后文"The choice will depend on the other person ‘s situations. lf he/ she already agrees with you, then your negativity can raise the intensity of his/her views.”中的"the choice”即指的是选项中的“you can outline your views cither positively or negatively”。
38.A。根据全段“38_Sometimes, people you are talking to don’t already think the way you do. They will simply judge your statement to be hyperbolic(浮夸的) and biased. And you won’t get them to imitate you at all. To an even greater degree, if they disagree with you, what you say will harden their values against yours._39 When people are offended over the opinions they hold, they are much more likely to dig into their position against that of the other speaker."可知,这里是指的另一种情形,即如果对方与你并没有共识基础,则你的消极负能量的对话就会出现不一样的状况。”One size fits all” 意思是一概而论。
39.B。根据“To an even greater degree, if they disagree with you, what you say will harden their values against yours. 39 When people are offended over the opinions they hold, they are much more likely do dig into their position against that of the speaker.”可知,设空前后文意思相近,设空后的句子对前文具体情形上升到了理论方面的介绍。
40.C。根据前文“Imagine a person came to your house with a beautiful bunch of flowers. But when you opened the door, he/ she hit you with the flowers.”可知,作者在对上文逆火效应进行了一个假想场面的解释。因此设空处应该填的是把花当武器打人后的坏的结果,即你只想赶走他。
完形填空
【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文,主要介绍了作者在圣地亚哥的Bahia Resort Hotel度假期间偶遇了两只海豹Gracie和Billy ,经过细心观察它们,了解到了它们的身体状况以及它们的乐观精神。结合自己与眼疾作斗争的经历,作者很好地阐释了我们应该抱有积极乐观,活在当下和克服逆境等生活态度,去寻找生命中的喜悦和感激,以启迪人生。
41.C。根据后文“with severe visual disabilities”可知,海豹有视力问题,几乎不能看到东西。
42.A。根据前文"I later learned both of them could_ 4l _ see anything with severe visual disabilities.”和"However" 可知,这里是指海豹设法做到了在池子里开心地生活。
43.B。句意为“我每天都去看望它们,并被它们的热情和快乐所吸引。”
44.D。语境描述了Gracie对饲养员的存在作出反应的方式。考虑到Gracie有严重的视觉障碍,它可能通过非视觉方式感知到饲养员﹐比如:通过声音“感受”或触觉等。
45.D。句意为“察觉到饲养员的存在,Gracie想要顺利游过去,但它没有成功。"ease smoothly forward意思为“顺利向前移动”。
46.C。句意为“它不停地在水下潜来潜去,最后终于成功地游走了。”
47.B。文中描述了作者花费大量时间观察Gracie和 Billy的情景,可得出作者是“仔细观察”这两只海豹。
48.A。花了长时间观察海豹和与它们相处之后,作者与Gracic 和 Billy之间形成了某种强烈的情感“联系”。
49.A。此处语境说明了Gracie和 Billy的“适应”和找到爱的能力给作者留下了深刻的印象。
50.D。根据后文“Terrified of losing my vision…."可知,作者害怕失去视力,暗示了作者的担忧与视力有关。
51.A。作者因Gracie和 Billy 的生活态度而受启发,提醒自己“专注于”自己当下能做的事情
52.C。考虑到Gracie 和 Billy的适应能力和作者从中得到的正面启示, passion”描述了海豹对生活的积极态度。
53.D。根据前文“Terrified of losing my vision, l recalled the seals’ ability to thrive though visually-challenged. ‘51_what you can do,’l reminded myself, inspired by Gracie and Billy’s _52_ for life."可知,作者在向这两只海豹学习,享受生活的点滴与欢乐。
54.B。结合文意,作者意识到海豹变成了她生活中的一束亮光,我们可以推断作者的身体状况有了“改善”。
55.B。根据前文可知作者也与眼疾抗争,本句句意为“随着我身体的好转,我意识到Gracie 和 Billy的生活就是我最黑暗的时刻的一束指引我前行的光,教我在当下寻找快乐。”
语法填空
【语篇导读】本篇介绍了中国人当前饮用咖啡的现状。
56. an。考查冠词。an hour’s drive指“一小时的车程”,注意“hour”发音为元音音素开头,故填不定冠词an。
57. where。考查定语从句的连接词。where指代前文chaguans 。
58. to spot。考查不定式。be likely to do是固定用法。
59. consumption。考查词形变化。coffee consumption指“咖啡消费量”。
60. rose。考查谓语动词时态。rise—rose—risen。
61. compared。考查非谓语动词。此处拿中国的咖啡饮用量和美国相比较, compare sth with sth.为固定用法,此处为被动关系,故填compared。
62. claiming。考查非谓语动词。此处claiming 作伴随状语。
63. and。考查并列连词。此处连接两个谓语introduced和 opened up。
64. to/for。考查介词的固定搭配。cater to/for表“迎合”。
65. affordable。考查词形变化。affordable意为“负担得起的”。

Verena Mohaupt and a handful of colleagues were trapped on floating sea ice while the bear gazed at them, smelling the air-a dangerous sign. As a colleague fired into the sky as a warning shot, Mohaupt radioed their research ship a few kilometers away, whose helicopter luckily arrived quickly and Mohaupt didn't have to use the gun that was hanging over her shoulder.
Keeping a lookout for bears was a regular duty for Mohaupt, the logistics coordinator(后勤协调员)for a year-long mission known as MOSAiC----the largest Arctic research exploration in history. The project, consisting of roughly 300 people, including scientists and coordinators, has collected massive measurements that will help better forecast how warming will transform the globe in the coming decades. For months, the exploration operated in constant darkness while polar bears wandered nearby, storms rocked the ship and the ice shifted and cracked.
Tasked with the security of the mission, Mohaupt designed an extensive training course for the participants in which they learnt how to avoid the danger, like storm-rocking and ice-cracking. They jumped into a Norwegian channel in their survival suits and climbed out of the freezing waters using only their ice picks. They learnt how to escape from a crashed helicopter. And they discussed the psychological effects of being far from home. Mohaupt brought knitting equipment, a yoga mat and an accordion for her own mental health----although having been prepared for the isolation.
Mohaupt didn't expect a career in polar regions. However, all the scientists approved that without her, the project could not have achieved so much. “She was there to make sure that we were protected,” said one of them. “Mohaupt is certainly the champion in the field.”
24.How does the author introduce the topic in the first paragraph
A. By making a list. of facts. B. By presenting arguments.
C. By describing a scene. D. By making a comparison.
25. What do we know about MOSAiC
A. It is the largest ever research exploration.
B. It is made up of about 300 scientists.
C. Its working conditions are quite tough.
D. Its duty is to keep a lookout for bears.
26. Which of the following best describes Mohaupt

You constantly find yourself apologizing to a friend when you've done nothing wrong. You feel you must obey someone's demands, fearing that he/she will reveal a secret or weakness. Or perhaps a relative is trying to make you feel obliged to do something by saying, “That's what friends or family do for each other.” They arouse feelings of guilt in you for not meeting their needs.
If you have had experiences with any of these cases. then you are the victim of emotional blackmail(勒索). This style of handle controls you through your emotions. Fear, obligation and guilt----FOG----arc used by an emotional blackmailer to get what they want from people.
Anyone----a friend, colleague, parent, partner or other family members----could be that person. Their demands are intended to control their victim's behavior in unhealthy methods.
Dr. Susan Forward identifies six stages in emotional blackmail. Implied or obvious demands come first. “l don't think you should do things with that person. They're not good for you.” After this kind of statement is stage two: Resistance. The victim often avoids the blackmailer or suggests alternatives instead of saying no. Stage three is persistent pressure by the blackmailer: “If we were really friends, you'd do it.” Stage four involves threats: “If you don't do this...then I will...” The victim doesn't want the blackmailer to make good on their threats, so obedience(顺从), which is stage five, often leaves the victim feeling guilty or resentful. In stage six the blackmailer backs off until the next demand.
What can you do First, recognize if you are being pressured. threatened or controlled. Stay calm, so you can consider other possibilities. Identify your triggers; don't be pressured into an immediate response. Offer a compromise. Tell the blackmailer how you feel, and give them a chance to acknowledge their behavior and change. If they won't, walk away from the relationship. Under no circumstances should you let your fears be used against you.

Scientists have long linked the Permian-Triassic mass extinction some 252 million years ago to vast volcanic eruptions in what is now Siberia. The resulting CO emissions rapidly accelerated climate warming, resulting in the collapse of ecosystems. But climate warming alone cannot explain because when the tropics become too hot, species migrate to the cooler, higher latitudcs(纬度). So, what wiped out almost all life on land, including plants and usually resilient insects, has remained a source of mystery.
One new study, published in the journal Science and co-led by the University of Bristol and China University of Geosciences ( Wuhan), has shed new light. Tremendous ocean warming El Nino events were the key, with global conditions swinging wildly over decades.
The scale of Permian-Triassic warming was revealed by studying oxygen isotopes(同位素) in the fossilized(石化的)tooth material of tiny extinct swimming organisms called conodonts(牙形虫). By studying the temperature record of conodonts from around the world, the researchers were able to show remarkable temperature instability, especially in the low and mid latitudes.
Dr. Farnsworth, who used pioneering climate modeling to evaluate the findings, said, “The changes responsible for the climate patterns were profound because there were much more intense and prolonged El Nino events than witnessed today. Species were simply not equipped to adapt or evolve quickly enough.”
The results of the climate modeling also help explain the abundant charcoal(木炭) found in rock layers of that age. “Wildfires became very common in a drought-prone climate. Earth got stuck in a crisis state where the land was burning and the oceans lifeless. There was nowhere to hide,” he added.
In recent years El Nino events have caused major changes. 2023-2024 was one of the hottest years on record globally due to a strong El Nino in the Pacific, which was further worsened by increased human-induced COR driving catastrophic drought and fires around the world. Fortunately, events like this so far have only lasted one to two years at a time.
32. What does the article mainly talk about
A. The exact cause of the Permian-Triassic mass extinction.
B. The impacts of volcanic eruptions on species on the earth.
C. The connection between El Nino events and CO2 emissions.
D. The survival skills of some ancient plants and resilient insects.
33. How did researchers know about the instable global temperature in the Permian-Triassic period
A. By making reference to previous climate models.
B. By comparing temperatures in low and mid latitudes.
C. By studying different sea creatures around the world.
D. By conducting scientific researches on relevant fossils.
34. What happened some 252 million years ago according to the researchers
①Threatened species made instant evolutions.
②Massive amounts of charcoal were formed.
③Disastrous wildfires happened frequently.
④The earth almost turned into a burning planet.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①②③ D. ②③④
35. What is implied in the last paragraph
A. History always repeats itself.
B. The cloud has a silver lining.
C. Every day is a leaf in history.
D. Nature is indeed what we see.

Humans have a need to share their beliefs and values with other people. 36 This has a solid logic: Sharing emotions and opinions can lead to imitation(模仿), which can in turn create unity and enhance relationships.
Besides creating a bond, another reason you might want someone to model themselves on your feelings is to get them to alter their views. 37 The choice will depend on the other person's situation. If he/she already agrees with you, then your negativity car raise the intensity of his/her views.
38 Sometimes, people you are talking to don't already think the way you do. They will simply judge your statement to be hyperbolic(浮夸的) and biased. And you won't get them to imitate you at all. To an even greater degree, if they disagree with you, what you say will harden their values against yours. 39 when people are offended over the opinions they hold, they are much more likely to dig into their position against that of the speaker.
Imagine a person came to your house with a beautiful bunch of flowers. But when you opened the door, he/she hit you with the flowers. 40
So, if you want to be more persuasive, consider the specific situations and share them more positively----in other words, turn your beliefs and values into a gift, rather than a weapon.
A. One size, however, won't fit for all.
B. This is the so-called back fire effect.
C. All you would want is to get the person out of the way.
D. When you feel strongly about something, it's hard not to talk about it.
E. This is essentially the result of using your flowers negatively as weapons.
F. To achieve the goal, you can outline your views either positively or negatively.
G. Positive emotions may be better at leading to imitation than negative emotions.

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。
Emily Harper sat at her desk, staring blankly at the math problems in front of her. Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't make sense of it.
Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The more pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Her parents decided to step in. “We need to find you some help,” her mother gently suggested one evening.
Then came Mr. Jenkins. a retired local teacher known for his unique teaching style. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change.
Their first session was tense. Mr. Jenkins sensing her frustration. didn't dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible(有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved.
However, progress was slow. Weeks passed with minimal improvement, and Emily's patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears, convinced she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said, “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas. Masterpieces aren't created overnight.”
Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, how each solution followed a logical path. Small victories in practice problems gave her some hope. Mr. Jenkins was always there, celebrating her successes no matter how minor.
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。
Gradually, Emily's confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins' help.
Emily's heart raced when the results day arrived.

Dear Sherlock,
As the chairman of Student Union, I am, with heartfelt sincerity, writing to invite you to deliver a speech concerning daily exercise.
The speech is scheduled at 5:00 p. m. this Friday in the stadium. The reason why we choose this theme is, initially, students’ insufficient awareness of exercise in daily life. Burdened with loads of schoolwork, seldom do students spare time for doing exercise. Additionally, taking into account the national appealing to cultivate all-round students, practicing exercise enables us to be qualified graduates.
Your accepting the invitation would be highly appreciated, and you, a sport enthusiast, can undoubtedly juice the speech up and make it reach a wider audience.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
读后续写
Gradually, Emily's confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. Each class Mr. Jenkins taught her turned into an adventure of discovery, where numbers and shapes combined to create a symphony of logic and imagination magically. She started to admire the elegance and harmony in variables and concepts, just as she would appreciate the balance in her paintings. Tolerant and firm, she began to tackle her homework with a newfound enthusiasm, keen to unveil the mysteries hidden in it. Not only was she now counting down the minutes until their next session, but her homework errors had witnessed an incredibly significant drop. Shortly, she completed the mid-term exams, with the results to be revealed sooner.
Emily's heart raced when the results day arrived. Her stomach was a mix of butterflies and
anticipation, a feeling she had never experienced for a math test before. Her fingers were icy as she tightly grasped for her report card, heart pounding in throat. However, the moment she scanned the score, what caught her eye was a bold “A” in red ink. It was more than just a letter; it was a symbol of her transformation, a reward to the hours of hard work and the belief Mr. Jenkins had placed in her. Finally, Emily felt a total relief with a sweet peace flooding into her. Maths was just her cup of tea and no limits were impossible to break through with a strong will and proper guidance.
