My family had a room that we called the Library, but even back then I knew it was just our dining room with a few bookshelves around a small table. When I was a kid, I was told that all these books are precious things—they must never be folded, bent, or broken. Any dirty marks or notes on a book are banned and our reading should always be a clean activity since it’s what separates us from the beasts. Preservation of all texts was the most important thing in the world.
Years later, when I began reading everything I could in my early teens, I tiptoed into the Library one day and discovered, to my horror, that all the books were still extremely new. It was row after row, shelf after shelf. Something clicked and I knew I had found a horrible secret about my family: they had bought these books to be displayed like jewellery, rather than to be read.
In that moment I knew that all those silly rules around reading and books were dead wrong and that there was nothing sadder in this world than an unused book—clean, without any trace of the reader at all.
Now here’s the secret: good reading is messy reading. If I want the kind of novel that gets deep into my bones, the sort of non-fiction mystery that stays with me years after the fact, then I must bring sticky notes(便利贴) and let my books get scuffed(磨损) along the way. I should always walk away from a book with visible progress of my reading.
After years of treating my books as if they ought to be preserved in a museum, I now believe that you should honour the books by breaking them. Read them all so messily! Truly read the books, anytime and anywhere, no matter how much we fold them, bend them, or tear them! Throw them into your backpack or leave them open by the side of your bed. Don’t worry about stains or torn edges after years of reading. That is what a book is. That is what a book is for.
24．Where did the author’s family store their books
A．In the study. B．In the dining room.
C．In the bedroom. D．In the living room.
25．What does the author imply about his family’s book collection
A．It was piled in a mess. B．It was mainly for decoration.
C．It was large and various. D．If was kept for a good price.
26 What does the underlined part “Something clicked” mean
A．I clicked the mouse. B．I suddenly felt puzzled.
C．Something made a sound. D．Something occurred to me.
27．Which opinion may the author agree on
A．Good books are valuable jewelry. B．Books are the ladder of human progress.
C．Read thousands of books regardless of their state. D．Protect books as they’re the source of knowledge.
C
Theatre has a culture of its own and is a powerful medium for exposing problems. Plays are sometimes attempting to spread awareness about problems like racism, sexism, etc. These plays help our society better function because they cause individuals to realize what is happening and take action. It builds a passion in people since they realize what is really important to them and that they have the power to make a change.
The main reason people go to theatre or even attend a show is to discover themselves. This means they want to come to a self-understanding and fulfilment. Human nature leads us to be original and theatre is the perfect outlet for people to be original and to understand themselves.
For many people, theatre also gives a purpose for life. Human beings naturally want to express themselves, and theatre is the most expressive art form. “This is why theatre is important: because it presents a reflective vision of a life that is vastly more fascinating than the one in which we’re stuck.”— Lemony Snicket.
Live theatre is as significant today as it was millennia(数千年) ago when our distant ancestors would gather around the fire to hear stories. Today we still gather in groups to hear stories being told, listen to music and put our demons in perspective. As a species, we have always turned to theatrical presentations to explore the unknown and explain our fears and concerns in an entertaining way. Theatre can also simply entertain, but there are few light “entertainments” which don’t include an underlying message.
Today we are surrounded by other options for entertainment, like film, video, and online streaming. But theatre is a very different experience. While cinema is prerecorded, perfected by thousand shots of the same scene and editing effects, one might say what you see in theatre is raw, more organic. You surely can’t make Avengers: Endgame the same in a live event. But, the connection of the actor to the audience that makes lago’s speech, or Hamlet’s speech what it is, is just not the same on film.
28．What can theatre bring to society
A．Solutions of racial issues. B．Development of media.
C．Fulfilment of individuals. D．Exposure of social problems.
29．Why did the author quote the words from Lemony Snicket
A．To show the purpose of life. B．To express the nature of humans.
C．To strengthen the function of theatre. D．To present a different point of view.
30．What can we know from the last paragraph
A．People tend to watch films than plays. B．Cinema and theatre have a lot in common.
C．Films feature an original way of art. D．Theatres bring people live experience.
31．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．The types of theatre. B．The power of theatre.
C．The challenges of theatre. D．The evolution of theatre.
D
Dog owners often believe that their pets understand commands such as “sit” and “stay”, and even associate words with their favorite objects. “Bring me your ball” will often result in exactly that.
But science has had trouble determining whether dogs and other animals truly create a mental image in their minds upon hearing the name of an object, a relationship with language called referential understanding, which would suggest a deeper understanding of language, like the kind that humans have.
A recent study conducted in Hungary, appearing in Current Biology, explores this issue. It involved 18 dogs and employed a non-invasive EEG procedure to measure their brain activity. Researchers played audio clips of their owners saying the names of objects, such as “ball” or “frisbee”, and then showed the dogs either the corresponding object or a different one to see if dogs would show a distinct brain response when the object matched the word compared to when it did not.
Boros, a co-lead writer of the study, said “A different brain pattern appeared when the dogs were shown an object that matched the word compared to when it did not, indicating that they might create a mental image of the object upon hearing its name. That was previously unproven.”
Lilla Magyari, another co-lead writer, noted that while other animals have shown some level of referential understanding, they often require extensive training. In contrast, the study suggests that in dogs, such cognitive(认知的) abilities appear to be inborn and require no special training or talent. This finding supports that referential understanding is not necessarily unique to humans.
Despite the study’s promising results, some experts are skeptical. Clive Wynne from Arizona State University argued on Facebook that the study only demonstrates dogs’ responses to stimuli(刺激物), rather than an understanding of specific words. He doubts whether dogs grasp the exact meaning of words.
Scientists believe the first dogs began to be kept by humans up to 30,000 years ago. The animals have lived closely alongside us ever since. However, whether this long history of cohabitation contributed to their ability to understand referential language remains an open question.
32．What does “referential understanding” refer to
A．Associating words with emotions. B．Responding actively to commands.
C．Forming mental images of objects. D．Learning objects through training.
33．How did researchers test dogs’ brain responses
A．By using different audio tones. B．By adjusting shapes of objects.
C．By matching objects with words. D．By comparing different objects.
34．Which does Clive Wynne agree with about the study
A．It overestimates dogs’ cognitive abilities. B．It is widely accepted by the scientific field.
C．It proves dogs know specific words very well. D．It provides a new insight about dogs’ evolution.
35．What’s the text mainly about
A．What dog owners’ belief about their pets is. B．What dogs’ response to the different objects is.
C．Whether we can train dogs to follow commands. D．Whether referential understanding exists in Dogs.

How to Make Better Decisions
Having too many choices can cause anxiety, but you can overcome decidophobia (决策恐惧).
36 Shall I. shan’t I When you’re feeling overwhelmed (不知所措) with possibilities, it’s often easier to do nothing That’s not a long-term solution, so try to focus on the really important issues and avoid sweating the small stuff. Be organized in your daily life— decide what you’ re going to wear the night before, eat the same breakfast every day, and know when you’ re going to do certain chores. That cuts down the number of options you have to weigh at any one time.
Make it manageable. Follow a series of steps. First, write down the advantages and disadvantages of different options. 37 . Consider how you feel about them, instead. Abandon all but the three or four most realistic courses of action. Next, gather information that will help with the decision, then seek advice from just a few people. 38 .
Set deadlines. To avoid decision paralysis(决策无能), set yourself a firm but realistic date by which you need to have picked your preferred option. 39
Sleep on it. When you think you’ve come to the right conclusion, take a holiday or even just a day to think about something different before you actually commit.
Trust yourself. 40 . To give yourself confidence, list the decisions you’ve made in the past that have worked out well and consider whether choices you consider bad were really that disastrous.
A．Cut down your decisions
B．Make all possible decisions
C．This will also prevent you from being in a dilemma later
D．Making a decision is happy, but you’re the one who is suitable
E．Don’t simply think about the number of points for and against
F．It’s often helpful if they’re independent, rather than friends or family
G．Making a decision is scary, but you’re the one who knows yourself best

I first picked up a racquet(球拍) and ball when I was four. Jim Joyce, my first tennis coach, was teaching me to play and think 41 .
One day, I started making 42 when I hit. He asked me if I was sick, and I said no. “I heard it would give me more power,” I 43 shyly. “Asho, that’s absolutely 44 ,” he replied. “You’re not doing any better with it. You’re concentrating on grunting(发出哼声) instead of 45 . If you grunt again, I’m walking off this court.”
Jim also found ways to get me into trouble I played my first competition when I was six. I’d been 46 for almost two years, and I was certain I was going to win. But Jim made me 47 . There aren’t many lessons to be learned from an easy win. He intentionally found an 48 girl to play me clean off the court.
This philosophy extended to everything I did. I remember climbing out of my age group 49 against a 14-year-old girl when I was 11．Jim went to her and told her how to beat me. “Play to her low forehand,” “Hit a short slice.” He 50 I would pay more attention to my 51 if they led to losses. I won anyway. From then on, I began winning quickly.
But there was one girl, Lyann Hoang. I was forever 52 her, endlessly losing to her. Jim loved seeing me 53 this way—until I cried. “Keep going,” he said. “One day you’ll catch her.” Finally, I did. And I 54 him with a surprised and yet satisfied look. Jim was as cool as ever. “Yeah, Asho, but it’s Just one match. Let’s practise again tomorrow.” These valuable 55 continuously influence me whether I win or lose.

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面的材料，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 told I needed glasses, I wasn’t a bit surprised. I had been struggling with poor eyesight for a while, and it was starting to affect my schoolwork. My teacher repeatedly said that I couldn’t complete my work accurately recently. It became clear to me that I simply couldn’t see the blackboard well from the back of the classroom. I remembered how my deskmate had to read the notes aloud to me so that I could copy them down, like a parrot, which made me feel embarrassed and dependent on others.
Finally, I got my first pair of glasses. They had pink frames(镜框), and I was excited to show them off at school. I expected to look different in a good way, but reality was a far cry from what I imagined. The boys in my class laughed, hiding their faces and giving me mischievous smiles as they teased me. Although the girls said the glasses looked good on me, I knew they were just telling white lies
Despite the teasing, wearing glasses changed my world. Everything looked clear, like stepping into a 3D movie. I could finally see the details I had been missing, and I felt at ease to see the blackboard clearly again. But after about a month, my excitement disappeared, and a sense of insecurity set in. I began to feel self-conscious about the glasses, and I would take them off whenever possible, hoping to fit in better. One day, my friend Zane, who didn’t wear glasses but often borrowed notebooks from others after class, asked if she could try them on. I handed them to her. Immediately she put them on, her mouth dropped open.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150个左右；
（2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
She looked around the classroom with the glasses on.

Dear Frank,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m excited to share with you the details of our school’s “Sunshine Break” activity.
The “Sunshine Break” is a program where students have a 30-minute break during the school day to go outside and enjoy the sunshine. Students can engage in various activities such as playing sports, reading under the trees, or simply socializing with friends. It aims to promote physical activity, mental relaxation, and social interaction among students.
Personally, I think the “Sunshine Break” is a fantastic initiative. It not only provides a much-needed break from academic studies but also encourages students to be active and enjoy the outdoors. I have found it to be a great way to recharge and destress during the school day.
Yours,
Li Hua

She looked around the classroom with the glasses on. She couldn’t believe how clear everything looked, and her genuine surprise made me realize that maybe wearing glasses wasn’t such a bad thing after all. She kept saying how amazing it was to see the world so sharply, which made me smile. That moment helped me change the way I thought about my own glasses. For the first time, I didn’t feel embarrassed about them. On Sunday, she invited me to go with her to get a pair of glasses.
On Monday, we walked into class, feeling different—more confident. Zane had her new glasses, and she was as happy as I had been when I first got mine. We both smiled, realizing how much had changed in such a short time. My classmates stopped teasing me after understanding the reason. Now, I’m proud to wear my glasses. With my vision clear, I could focus better in class, and my confidence started to grow. Together, Zane and I realize embracing what makes us different can actually make us stronger.

Travel has become increasingly inconvenient and sometimes impossible over the last couple of years. However, museums around the world are digitizing their collections, enabling people to tour the museums from afar.
The British Museum, London
The British Museum contains objects from around the world, including the Rosetta Stone, with three versions of a text that helped researchers learn to read ancient Egyptian. The Great Court’s ceiling, in the middle of the museum, is composed of 3212 pieces of glass, none of which are alike. The virtual tour of the museum offers a 360-degree view of the room, allowing visitors to look at every piece.
MASP, S o Paulo
The first modern museum in Brazil, the Museu de Art e de S o Paulo includes art from the 14th to the20th centuries. The paintings, which are placed on glass panels, appear to be floating in mid-air This setup included in the virtual tour shows, makes the art appear almost magical.
National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea
This Korean museum includes four branches in different cities and features works of art from Korea and around the world. The art includes a variety of media such as print, sculpture and photography. There are also online exhibitions such as “Artists in Their Times” which traces trends in Korean art since the late1970s.

My family had a room that we called the Library, but even back then I knew it was just our dining room with a few bookshelves around a small table. When I was a kid, I was told that all these books are precious things—they must never be folded, bent, or broken. Any dirty marks or notes on a book are banned and our reading should always be a clean activity since it’s what separates us from the beasts. Preservation of all texts was the most important thing in the world.
Years later, when I began reading everything I could in my early teens, I tiptoed into the Library one day and discovered, to my horror, that all the books were still extremely new. It was row after row, shelf after shelf. Something clicked and I knew I had found a horrible secret about my family: they had bought these books to be displayed like jewellery, rather than to be read.
In that moment I knew that all those silly rules around reading and books were dead wrong and that there was nothing sadder in this world than an unused book—clean, without any trace of the reader at all.
Now here’s the secret: good reading is messy reading. If I want the kind of novel that gets deep into my bones, the sort of non-fiction mystery that stays with me years after the fact, then I must bring sticky notes(便利贴) and let my books get scuffed(磨损) along the way. I should always walk away from a book with visible progress of my reading.
After years of treating my books as if they ought to be preserved in a museum, I now believe that you should honour the books by breaking them. Read them all so messily! Truly read the books, anytime and anywhere, no matter how much we fold them, bend them, or tear them! Throw them into your backpack or leave them open by the side of your bed. Don’t worry about stains or torn edges after years of reading. That is what a book is. That is what a book is for.
24．Where did the author’s family store their books
A．In the study. B．In the dining room.
C．In the bedroom. D．In the living room.
25．What does the author imply about his family’s book collection

C．It was large and various. D．If was kept for a good price.
26 What does the underlined part “Something clicked” mean
A．I clicked the mouse. B．I suddenly felt puzzled.
C．Something made a sound. D．Something occurred to me.
27．Which opinion may the author agree on
A．Good books are valuable jewelry. B．Books are the ladder of human progress.
C．Read thousands of books regardless of their state. D．Protect books as they’re the source of knowledge.
C
Theatre has a culture of its own and is a powerful medium for exposing problems. Plays are sometimes attempting to spread awareness about problems like racism, sexism, etc. These plays help our society better function because they cause individuals to realize what is happening and take action. It builds a passion in people since they realize what is really important to them and that they have the power to make a change.
The main reason people go to theatre or even attend a show is to discover themselves. This means they want to come to a self-understanding and fulfilment. Human nature leads us to be original and theatre is the perfect outlet for people to be original and to understand themselves.
For many people, theatre also gives a purpose for life. Human beings naturally want to express themselves, and theatre is the most expressive art form. “This is why theatre is important: because it presents a reflective vision of a life that is vastly more fascinating than the one in which we’re stuck.”— Lemony Snicket.
Live theatre is as significant today as it was millennia(数千年) ago when our distant ancestors would gather around the fire to hear stories. Today we still gather in groups to hear stories being told, listen to music and put our demons in perspective. As a species, we have always turned to theatrical presentations to explore the unknown and explain our fears and concerns in an entertaining way. Theatre can also simply entertain, but there are few light “entertainments” which don’t include an underlying message.
Today we are surrounded by other options for entertainment, like film, video, and online streaming. But theatre is a very different experience. While cinema is prerecorded, perfected by thousand shots of the same scene and editing effects, one might say what you see in theatre is raw, more organic. You surely can’t make Avengers: Endgame the same in a live event. But, the connection of the actor to the audience that makes lago’s speech, or Hamlet’s speech what it is, is just not the same on film.
28．What can theatre bring to society
A．Solutions of racial issues. B．Development of media.
C．Fulfilment of individuals. D．Exposure of social problems.
29．Why did the author quote the words from Lemony Snicket
A．To show the purpose of life. B．To express the nature of humans.
C．To strengthen the function of theatre. D．To present a different point of view.
30．What can we know from the last paragraph
A．People tend to watch films than plays. B．Cinema and theatre have a lot in common.
C．Films feature an original way of art. D．Theatres bring people live experience.
31．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．The types of theatre. B．The power of theatre.
C．The challenges of theatre. D．The evolution of theatre.
D
Dog owners often believe that their pets understand commands such as “sit” and “stay”, and even associate words with their favorite objects. “Bring me your ball” will often result in exactly that.
But science has had trouble determining whether dogs and other animals truly create a mental image in their minds upon hearing the name of an object, a relationship with language called referential understanding, which would suggest a deeper understanding of language, like the kind that humans have.
A recent study conducted in Hungary, appearing in Current Biology, explores this issue. It involved 18 dogs and employed a non-invasive EEG procedure to measure their brain activity. Researchers played audio clips of their owners saying the names of objects, such as “ball” or “frisbee”, and then showed the dogs either the corresponding object or a different one to see if dogs would show a distinct brain response when the object matched the word compared to when it did not.
Boros, a co-lead writer of the study, said “A different brain pattern appeared when the dogs were shown an object that matched the word compared to when it did not, indicating that they might create a mental image of the object upon hearing its name. That was previously unproven.”
Lilla Magyari, another co-lead writer, noted that while other animals have shown some level of referential understanding, they often require extensive training. In contrast, the study suggests that in dogs, such cognitive(认知的) abilities appear to be inborn and require no special training or talent. This finding supports that referential understanding is not necessarily unique to humans.
Despite the study’s promising results, some experts are skeptical. Clive Wynne from Arizona State University argued on Facebook that the study only demonstrates dogs’ responses to stimuli(刺激物), rather than an understanding of specific words. He doubts whether dogs grasp the exact meaning of words.
Scientists believe the first dogs began to be kept by humans up to 30,000 years ago. The animals have lived closely alongside us ever since. However, whether this long history of cohabitation contributed to their ability to understand referential language remains an open question.
32．What does “referential understanding” refer to
A．Associating words with emotions. B．Responding actively to commands.
C．Forming mental images of objects. D．Learning objects through training.
33．How did researchers test dogs’ brain responses
A．By using different audio tones. B．By adjusting shapes of objects.
C．By matching objects with words. D．By comparing different objects.
34．Which does Clive Wynne agree with about the study
A．It overestimates dogs’ cognitive abilities. B．It is widely accepted by the scientific field.
C．It proves dogs know specific words very well. D．It provides a new insight about dogs’ evolution.
35．What’s the text mainly about
A．What dog owners’ belief about their pets is. B．What dogs’ response to the different objects is.
C．Whether we can train dogs to follow commands. D．Whether referential understanding exists in Dogs.

How to Make Better Decisions
Having too many choices can cause anxiety, but you can overcome decidophobia (决策恐惧).
36 Shall I. shan’t I When you’re feeling overwhelmed (不知所措) with possibilities, it’s often easier to do nothing That’s not a long-term solution, so try to focus on the really important issues and avoid sweating the small stuff. Be organized in your daily life— decide what you’ re going to wear the night before, eat the same breakfast every day, and know when you’ re going to do certain chores. That cuts down the number of options you have to weigh at any one time.
Make it manageable. Follow a series of steps. First, write down the advantages and disadvantages of different options. 37 . Consider how you feel about them, instead. Abandon all but the three or four most realistic courses of action. Next, gather information that will help with the decision, then seek advice from just a few people. 38 .
Set deadlines. To avoid decision paralysis(决策无能), set yourself a firm but realistic date by which you need to have picked your preferred option. 39
Sleep on it. When you think you’ve come to the right conclusion, take a holiday or even just a day to think about something different before you actually commit.
Trust yourself. 40 . To give yourself confidence, list the decisions you’ve made in the past that have worked out well and consider whether choices you consider bad were really that disastrous.
A．Cut down your decisions
B．Make all possible decisions
C．This will also prevent you from being in a dilemma later
D．Making a decision is happy, but you’re the one who is suitable
E．Don’t simply think about the number of points for and against
F．It’s often helpful if they’re independent, rather than friends or family
G．Making a decision is scary, but you’re the one who knows yourself best

I first picked up a racquet(球拍) and ball when I was four. Jim Joyce, my first tennis coach, was teaching me to play and think 41 .
One day, I started making 42 when I hit. He asked me if I was sick, and I said no. “I heard it would give me more power,” I 43 shyly. “Asho, that’s absolutely 44 ,” he replied. “You’re not doing any better with it. You’re concentrating on grunting(发出哼声) instead of 45 . If you grunt again, I’m walking off this court.”
Jim also found ways to get me into trouble I played my first competition when I was six. I’d been 46 for almost two years, and I was certain I was going to win. But Jim made me 47 . There aren’t many lessons to be learned from an easy win. He intentionally found an 48 girl to play me clean off the court.
This philosophy extended to everything I did. I remember climbing out of my age group 49 against a 14-year-old girl when I was 11．Jim went to her and told her how to beat me. “Play to her low forehand,” “Hit a short slice.” He 50 I would pay more attention to my 51 if they led to losses. I won anyway. From then on, I began winning quickly.
But there was one girl, Lyann Hoang. I was forever 52 her, endlessly losing to her. Jim loved seeing me 53 this way—until I cried. “Keep going,” he said. “One day you’ll catch her.” Finally, I did. And I 54 him with a surprised and yet satisfied look. Jim was as cool as ever. “Yeah, Asho, but it’s Just one match. Let’s practise again tomorrow.” These valuable 55 continuously influence me whether I win or lose.

阅读下面的材料，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 told I needed glasses, I wasn’t a bit surprised. I had been struggling with poor eyesight for a while, and it was starting to affect my schoolwork. My teacher repeatedly said that I couldn’t complete my work accurately recently. It became clear to me that I simply couldn’t see the blackboard well from the back of the classroom. I remembered how my deskmate had to read the notes aloud to me so that I could copy them down, like a parrot, which made me feel embarrassed and dependent on others.
Finally, I got my first pair of glasses. They had pink frames(镜框), and I was excited to show them off at school. I expected to look different in a good way, but reality was a far cry from what I imagined. The boys in my class laughed, hiding their faces and giving me mischievous smiles as they teased me. Although the girls said the glasses looked good on me, I knew they were just telling white lies
Despite the teasing, wearing glasses changed my world. Everything looked clear, like stepping into a 3D movie. I could finally see the details I had been missing, and I felt at ease to see the blackboard clearly again. But after about a month, my excitement disappeared, and a sense of insecurity set in. I began to feel self-conscious about the glasses, and I would take them off whenever possible, hoping to fit in better. One day, my friend Zane, who didn’t wear glasses but often borrowed notebooks from others after class, asked if she could try them on. I handed them to her. Immediately she put them on, her mouth dropped open.

Dear Frank,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m excited to share with you the details of our school’s “Sunshine Break” activity.
The “Sunshine Break” is a program where students have a 30-minute break during the school day to go outside and enjoy the sunshine. Students can engage in various activities such as playing sports, reading under the trees, or simply socializing with friends. It aims to promote physical activity, mental relaxation, and social interaction among students.
Personally, I think the “Sunshine Break” is a fantastic initiative. It not only provides a much-needed break from academic studies but also encourages students to be active and enjoy the outdoors. I have found it to be a great way to recharge and destress during the school day.
Yours,
Li Hua

She looked around the classroom with the glasses on. She couldn’t believe how clear everything looked, and her genuine surprise made me realize that maybe wearing glasses wasn’t such a bad thing after all. She kept saying how amazing it was to see the world so sharply, which made me smile. That moment helped me change the way I thought about my own glasses. For the first time, I didn’t feel embarrassed about them. On Sunday, she invited me to go with her to get a pair of glasses.
On Monday, we walked into class, feeling different—more confident. Zane had her new glasses, and she was as happy as I had been when I first got mine. We both smiled, realizing how much had changed in such a short time. My classmates stopped teasing me after understanding the reason. Now, I’m proud to wear my glasses. With my vision clear, I could focus better in class, and my confidence started to grow. Together, Zane and I realize embracing what makes us different can actually make us stronger.
