2．细节理解题。根据“2024 Tuition & Fees per Session (Lunch Included)”部分中“Full day: $1075”（全天：1075美元）可知，两个不寄宿的全天营员需要支付的费用是2150美元（1075*2）。故选C。

5．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“She has become a film star. Sitienei travelled to Paris last year for the launch (发布) of a film about her journey.(她已成为一名电影明星。Sitienei去年前往巴黎参加一部关于她旅程的电影的发布会。)”可知，Sitienei去巴黎是因为她的电影会在那里上映。故选C项。
6．推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“She said, “I also enjoy school activities, including physical education classes. They keep me fit. I get to jump around, even though not as much as they do, but I at least move my body. That is my joy.”(她说：“我也喜欢学校的活动，包括体育课。它们使我保持健康。我可以跳来跳去，虽然没有他们跳得那么频繁，但我至少可以动一动身体。这就是我的快乐。”)”可知，99岁高龄的Sitienei喜欢上体育课，说明她很活跃，结合选项可知，用“充满活力”这个词最能描述Sitienei。故选D项。
7．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Her teachers also use her experience to keep the peace during lessons. Her class teacher, Leonida Talaam, said, “I use Sitienei to help control the class. And it works! When I go outside, the class remains silent.”(她的老师也用她的经验来维持课堂上的平静。她的班主任Leonida Talaam说：“我用Sitienei来帮助控制班级。而且很有效!当我走出去时，全班保持沉默。”)”可知，Sitienei帮助她的老师维持课堂秩序。故选A项。

9．推理判断题。根据第三段“Only four to eight minutes of pure factual lecture can be tolerated before the brain seeks other information, either internal (daydreaming) or external (Who is that man walking down the hall ). If the teacher is not providing that novelty, the brain will go elsewhere(只有4到8分钟的纯事实性演讲是可以容忍的，然后大脑就会寻找其他信息，要么是内部信息(做白日梦)，要么是外部信息(走在大厅里的那个人是谁 )如果老师不能提供这种新鲜感，大脑就会转向别处)”可知，大脑渴望新奇的事物以保持学习的参与度。故选C。
10．推理判断题。根据第二段“As Judy Willis, MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best, a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System (RAS) filters(过滤) incoming information,(正如医学博士朱迪·威利斯(Judy Willis)在《你的孩子如何学习得最好》一书中解释的那样，大脑中有一个叫做网状激活系统(RAS)的部分过滤传入的信息)”和第三段“In his article How the Brain Learns Best, psychiatrist and child psychologist Bruce Perry explains why repetitive classroom activities, such as lectures or worksheets, limit the brain’s desire for novelty and can interfere with learning.(精神病学家和儿童心理学家布鲁斯·佩里在他的文章《大脑如何最好地学习》中解释了为什么重复的课堂活动，如讲座或工作表，限制了大脑对新鲜事物的渴望，并可能干扰学习。)”可知，文章通过引用专业人士的观点来展开论述。故选B。
11．主旨大意题。根据第一段“But what will happen when the new information doesn’t “fit” with the existing understanding That’s when the brain really gets excited. The brain doesn’t just detect new information— it needs novelty.(但是，当新的信息与现有的理解不“吻合”时，会发生什么呢 那是大脑真正兴奋的时候。大脑不只是检测新信息——它还需要新奇的东西。)”可知，文章主要介绍了新奇在教育中的重要性，以及如何通过新奇来吸引学生的注意力和提高学习效果。所以短文的最佳标题为“新奇在教育中的重要性”切题。故选A。
12．B 13．C 14．B 15．A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究，科学家们发明了一种可以跟随太阳移动的双面太阳能电池板。
12．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Most solar panels (太阳能电池板) acquire sunlight from only one side, meaning they can get more or less of it depending on where the sun is in the sky.(大多数太阳能电池板只从一侧获得阳光，这意味着它们可以根据太阳在天空中的位置获得更多或更少的阳光。)”可知，大多数太阳能电池板需要根据太阳在天空中的位置获得更多或更少的阳光。故选B。
13．词义猜测题。根据划线词前句“Basically, these panels can acquire sun from not only their sun-facing side but also from the light reflected off the ground onto their dark undersides.(基本上，这些面板不仅可以从它们朝向太阳的一面获得阳光，还可以从地面反射到它们黑暗的底部的光线中获得阳光。)”以及划线单词所在句“move on an axis(轴) from east to west in order to always be pointed at a best angle to acquire the sun’s rays.(从东到西沿轴(轴)移动，以便始终指向最佳角度以获取太阳光线。)”可推测，them指的正是双面太阳能电池板。故选C。
14．推理判断题。根据文章第四段““This means that investing in double-sided and tracking systems should be a safe bet for the future, ” Carlos Rodriguez-Gallegos, the study’s lead author, said.(该研究的主要作者Carlos Rodriguez-Gallegos说：“这意味着投资于双面和跟踪系统应该是未来的安全赌注。”)”可知，Carlos Rodriguez-Gallegos认为对这种双面太阳能电池板的投资是安全的，由此可知，他对于双面太阳能电池板的抱有支持的态度。故选B。
15．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In a new study published in the journal Joule on Tuesday, scientists introduce a way to increase that percentage even higher: double-sided solar panels that can move to follow the sun.(在周二发表在《焦耳》杂志上的一项新研究中，科学家们介绍了一种将这一比例提高到更高的方法：可以跟随太阳移动的双面太阳能电池板。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一种新型的可以跟随太阳移动的双面太阳能电池板。故选A。

47．参考答案：
1．One possible version:
Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. She found herself approaching math problems with a newfound curiosity instead of anxiety. The once confusing numbers and symbols began to become patterns she could understand. Mr. Jenkins continued to teach her in his unique way. Emily started to enjoy the challenge, and her once hesitant hand now moved steadily across the paper. The joy she felt when a solution clicked into place was something she had never expected to experience with math.
Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. She sat in the classroom, her hands trembling slightly as she received her test paper. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she saw the grade – a solid A. Tears of relief and happiness welled up in her eyes. She looked up at Mr. Jenkins, who stood at the back of the classroom, watching her with a proud smile. In that moment, Emily knew that she had not only conquered her fear of math but also discovered the power of perseverance.
