A self-described “girly girl”, nine-year-old Zandra Cunningham was constantly begging her parents for the latest beauty products. One day her dad simply told her “no”, which inspired her to make her own.
Zandra has been recognized by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the youngest millionaires in America. When asked about her experience as a child entrepreneur (企业家), Zandra says, “It wasn’t frightening. When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality. ‘Maybe it’s not going to work’ never really crossed my mind.” For Zandra, it became a challenge to separate her personal interests from what her customers actually wanted. “There were a lot of things that I felt were a good idea, but it wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers.
It started as a hobby for Zandra and her mom. They’d play around with different ingredients until they found formulas they liked “through a lot of trial and error”. Slowly, they started transforming the pastime into a brand. Zandra began selling her products at local markets, and a few years later — when Zandra was 12 years old — the family started a shop for Zandra Beauty. At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price. The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand — but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.”
“There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” Zandra says. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.”
24．Why was Zandra not scared when she started her business according to herself
A．She was always very daring. B．Her parents supported her greatly.
C．Her young mind made her fearless. D．She had much previous experience.
25．Which of the following is the most important in Zandra’s opinion
A．The need of customers. B．Changing the market.
C．The quality of an idea. D．Sharing her personal interests.
26．What kind of product does Zandra mainly pursue
A．The one that is cheap and useful. B．The one that is enjoyed by her mom.
C．The one that is created by trial and error. D．The one that is reliable and eco-friendly.
27．What is Zandra’s attitude towards the future of her brand
A．Concerned. B．Hopeful. C．Doubtful. D．Relieved.
Casio, perhaps known for watches, is expanding its product line to include “Moflin”, an adorable AI-powered robotic pet. According to the company’s October 10 announcement, this fur ball “becomes attached to its owner.” While currently only accepting pre-orders in Japan ahead of a November 7 release, the device is based on the concept of “Always by your side in your heart.”
A promotional video showcases an owner turning to her Moflin in times of stress or relaxation, cuddling with it. Available in either gold or silver fur, the palm-sized companion sort of resembles a rabbit without ears. It doesn’t seem to be able to really walk, and instead wriggles in place depending on the interaction. Still, its movements are less robotic than those of mechanical pets from the past.
The earliest hints at Mollin Moment first arrived in 2021 through a Kickstarter from the company Vanguard Industries. Since then, it appears the endeavor caught Casio’s eye, who is now hyping the 59, 400 yen (roughly$400)device. Each Moflin also includes an official “MofLife” dedicated app, as well as an additional paid subscription service offering discounted “hospitalization” and “fur care” fees. But the overall costs are likely far less than owning a living pet which demands frequent feeding, cleaning, walking and playing.
The artificial animal’s internal programming allows it to “build a deeper bond” with an owner through voice and gesture-based recognition software. It takes a couple of months for Moflin to develop a simulacrum of affection and emotion. Talking or smiling earns positive responses, while ignoring or frightening Moflin triggers negative emotions.
Right out of the box, Moflin’s movements and voice are still childish. By day 25, however, Casio promises that “you will start to become attached to the animal.” Around day 50 is when owners can expect their fully matured Moflin to offer unique noises and wriggling movements from a range of 4 million different combinations.
But as TechRadar noted, there is a distinct drawback with this product — namely that Moflin’s 5-hour battery life doesn’t really hold up to, say, a cat’s battery reserves. Recharging takes around 3.5 hours in a bed-like cradle.
Will Mollin become the Furby of the Future Only time will tell. It’s certainly less creepy than its 90’s ancestor.
28．What can we infer about Moflin
A．It can walk and play like a real pet. B．It looks like a gold or silver fur ball.
C．It was initially put forward by Casio. D．Its movements are still quite robotic.
29．Why does Moflin cost comparatively less than a real pet
A．It includes a discounted subscription. B．It requires less maintenance and care.
C．It requires no hospital visits or fur care. D．It just takes several months to grow up.
30．What does the underlined word “simulacrum” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Instant feedback. B．Natural response.
C．Random act. D．Artificial imitation.
31．What is the biggest problem of owning Moflin
A．Inability to recognize different owners. B．Negative emotions towards its owner.
C．Short battery life and long recharging time. D．Complex programming for communications.
Working with ARIA Research, a startup developing vision for the blind, Phoebe Peng is using technologically advanced human echolocation (回声定位) that enables blind users to perceive their surroundings in precise detail.
The process uses event cameras which, unlike normal cameras that take complete images of a scene, track changes in an image over time, making them ideal for the observation of small objects like table tennis balls. The images are then processed into sound using a specialised algorithm (算法). This is then communicated back to the player via a lot of loudspeakers, ultimately with the aim of allowing players to track the ball and movements using sounds.
According to Peng, table tennis makes a perfect test case for the kind of technology being developed by ARIA Research. “Table tennis has been played for decades as a more accessible version of tennis. The sport is beginner-friendly while maintaining a rich level of competitive play. However, like many sports, it remains difficult for people who suffer vision loss or have low vision,” said Ms Peng, who will soon complete a Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering.
“The small size of the ball and table, along with the movement of the ball in 3D space, are things that make table tennis difficult to play for those with low vision and complete blindness,” said Peng, who is completing the work for her degree. “Making this sport more accessible while also exploring the potential of event cameras were my two biggest motivators,” she said.
In one study, using two perfectly positioned cameras, Ms Peng was able to identify and track a ball in three dimensions in real time. She then fed that data into an algorithm controlling the loudspeakers standing along the sides of the table, which created a sound field matching the position of the ball.
While the results are promising, more experimentation will be needed before the system will be ready for actual play. “There are limitations on how accurately people can perceive sound localisation. What type of sound should be used Should the sound be continuous This is what we’ll be tackling in the next stage of development,” said Ms Peng.
32．How are event cameras different from normal ones
A．They can have sounds located.
B．They are linked with loudspeakers.
C．They constantly follow image changes.
D．They take complete images of a scene.
33．What makes table tennis a perfect test case for the research
A．Its unique feature. B．Its fierce competition.
C．Its technical complexity. D．Its beginner-friendliness.
34．What is the last paragraph mainly about concerning the study
A．Its inspiring results. B．Its promising future.
C．Its practical applications. D．Its technological challenge.
35．What could be the best title for the text
A．Technology Opens up Blind Table Tennis
B．Blind People Work Wonders in Table Tennis
C．Event Camera Reshapes Future for the Disabled
D．Algorithm Helps Translate Imagination to Sound
How to Do Things You Don’t Like
We all have to get through things we don’t like in life, be it small or big, perhaps having to go through a tough set of exams, a driving test or a holiday with someone you really don’t like. In many cases, there’s little we can do to change outside factors. 36 .
Be aware of the task. Often, what we think is challenging turns out not to be such a big deal. Write down what it is you have to do, ask people who’ve gone through it before and evaluate how bad it truly is.
Prepare yourself in advance. Once you’ve identified what it is you have to do, plan ahead and get ready. 37 . If it’s for going on a terrifying trip, find things which can make it more enjoyable.
38 . We all have to go through hard times in life, but often our greatest joys come as a consequence of our worst pain. Visualize the achievement you will make once you’ve finished the task, think about what you’re going to do afterward, and use this as a stimulus to keep on going.
Don’t be too harsh (严厉的) on yourself. Don’t be too hard on the way you’re coping with the task. 39 . We’re only human after all. Of course, try to see where you can improve, but overly high standards are just ineffective.
Reward yourself. Give yourself treats where you can. 40 , and do something you enjoy. Perhaps you can avoid doing certain things you love in your everyday life and save them for such moments.
A．See the goal
B．See the bigger picture
C．If it’s for public exams, write yourself a timetable
D．If you’re trying your best, leave out small mistakes
E．You should feel worse about anything that goes wrong
F．However, we can certainly get through them all in a less stressful way
G．You can buy the snack you have once in a while, watch a funny film

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Chinese hit video game Black Myth: Wukong, 56 action role-playing game developed by Game Science, 57 (come) top of the “most-played games” list on Steam, a leading gaming platform, merely an hour after its launch on Tuesday morning.
58 (adapt) from the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, the game has succeeded in “telling China’s story with world-class quality”. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, a monkey following in the footsteps of the Monkey King on an 59 (adventure) journey to collect the six Relics 60 once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court (天庭). Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult 61 (understand) for many players, especially those from Western countries.
For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting 62 repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. To bridge these cultural divides, numerous Western fans have devoted 63 (enthusiastic) great time and effort. One player wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West, and another fan immersed 64 (he) in the epic by checking out TV shows, 65 (essay) and online encyclopedias. Through this process, Western players have not only refined their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and this classic book.

六、书面表达（本大题共1小题）
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。
Knock-knock-knock. “Hello ” I called timidly through my cousin Anita’s bedroom door. No answer. There’s no way she forgot I was moving in today, right I thought. “Anita It’s me, Norah! ” I called again.
I had only met my cousin once a couple of years ago when Anita and Aunt Sonam had flown to California to visit. Mom had hoped Anita and I would be friends. But all Anita wanted to talk about was soccer, which was practically a foreign language to me. Secretly, I had felt relieved when the visit was over.
Now, I was standing in my aunt’s tiny apartment in New York City, and there was still no answer from Anita. I knocked again, a little louder this time. Finally, Anita opened the door. She apologized, saying she had been listening to music. But instead of inviting me in, Anita frowned at my massive suitcase.
Behind her, I could see a blue beanbag chair crowded next to a bunk bed (上下铺). In my old room in California, I’d had a double bed all to myself, and my original artwork had covered all the walls. Anita’s walls, on the other hand, were covered with posters of the U. S. women’s soccer team. I didn’t see any free space to hang anything else.
“C-can I come in ” I asked, blushing. Anita nodded, but she barely moved. I had no choice but to squeeze by her into the room. I put my stuff against the wall and Anita started bouncing the soccer ball from her foot to her knee and back again. Suddenly, her foot kicked the ball at an odd angle, and it accidentally flew toward me. “Whoops! ” Anita called. “Think fast!”
But I was still taking in the surroundings, so the ball caught me off guard and bounced off my shoulder. Forcing a smile, I pretended it didn’t bother me. Unsure of what to do, I took out my sketchbook (素描本) and colored pencils and sat down. Just holding my sketchbook made me feel more at ease. I started sketching aimlessly while Anita went back to bounce her ball.
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I could draw Anita in action. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Anita studied the drawing carefully.

M: Sure. Firstly, when giving feedback, be clear about what the students did well or what they need to improve.

Thirdly, if a student needs to improve in a particular area, offer suggestions for how to do so.

M: Use positive language of course. For example, instead of saying, “You’re doing this wrong,” say, “Let’s try it this way.”

M: You’re welcome.
W: By the way, would you like to have dinner with me this weekend
M: Thanks, but I try to avoid eating restaurant food because I have a weak stomach.
W: I’ll cook. I’m good at Chinese food.

【听力材料】
W: Good evening. I’m your old friend Lisa Brown. Tonight, I’d like to tell you about a new site for tourists in the northern Philippines. A long-lasting drought has caused water in a dam there to disappear. As a result, the ruins of a centuries-old town showed up. The dried-up dam has exposed the foundations of some old buildings. This new-found sight immediately drew the attention of the locals. Residents like Aurea Delos Santos, a retired nurse, express excitement at the sight. It has become an attraction for them and foreign tourists. Therefore, it serves as an additional source of income in an area relying on agriculture. Some locals, like the fisherman Nelson Dellera, have taken the opportunity to profit by taking tourists to the site. The old town had been moved somewhere else in the 1970s during the dam’s construction. The dam now plays an important role in providing water to the region, so the appearance of the site has also caused some concerns. Locals hope the dam will be filled with water again. That’s all for tonight’s program. Thank you for your listening.

22．细节理解题。根据Jigsaw Puzzles from Rottz Games部分的“Or, if none fit your fancy, you can create custom puzzles by uploading images of your own.(或者，如果没有一个符合你的喜好，你可以通过上传自己的图片来创建自定义拼图。)”可知，Rottz Games允许玩家创造自己的拼图游戏。故选D。
23．细节理解题。根据Washington Post Online Jigsaw Puzzle部分的“Some of the latest puzzles include a sandy volleyball scene, a cat on a blanket, and landmark structures from around the world, including the Colosseum in Rome and the Sydney Opera House.(最新的拼图包括沙滩排球的场景，毯子上的猫，以及世界各地的地标建筑，包括罗马斗兽场和悉尼歌剧院。)”可知，Washington Post Online Jigsaw Puzzle提供以世界地标为特色的拼图游戏。故选A。
【答案】24．C 25．A 26．D 27．B
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了9岁女孩 Zandra推出了自己的美容产品，被《企业家》杂志评为美国最年轻的百万富翁之一。
【解析】24．细节理解题。根据第二段“When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality.(当你年轻的时候，你不会有那种恐惧的心态)”可知，赞德拉自己创业的时候一点都不害怕是因为她年轻的头脑使她无所畏惧。故选C。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段““There were a lot of things that I felt were a good idea, but it wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers.(她说：“有很多东西我觉得很好，但不适合市场。”作为市场的一部分，赞德拉觉得她有一个独特的视角，使她能够真正倾听和回应她的客户)”可知，赞德拉认为应该把顾客的需求放在首位。故选A。
26．细节理解题。根据第三段“At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price.The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand — but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.”(当时，赞德拉美容是第一个以可承受的价格提供植物性和有机美容产品的品牌之一。这位21岁的女孩基本上是和她的品牌一起成长的，但她的目标一直保持不变：“我们的主要重点是推出对每个人和地球都安全的神奇产品。”)”可知，赞德拉追求的是可靠和环保的产品。故选D。
27．推理判断题。根据最后一段““There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” Zandra says. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.”(赞德拉说：“有很多品牌在做类似的事情，但仍有很大的增长空间。你的客户就在那里，你只需要找到能让你与众不同的东西。”)”可推知，赞德拉对自己品牌的未来持乐观态度。故选B。
【答案】28．B 29．B 30．D 31．C
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了Casio公司的新产品Molfin这一新一代智能宠物。
【解析】28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Available in either gold or silver fur, the palm-sized companion sort of resembles a rabbit without ears. (有金色或银色皮毛可选，这个手掌大小的伙伴有点像没有耳朵的兔子。)”可知，Moflin有金色或银色的毛，看起来像没有耳朵的兔子，所以它看起来像一个金色或银色的毛球。故选B项。
29．细节理解题。根据第三段中“But the overall costs are likely far less than owning a living pet which demands frequent feeding, cleaning, walking and playing. (但是总体成本可能远低于养一只活的宠物，活宠物需要频繁喂食、清洁、遛弯和玩耍。)”可知，它不需要像真宠物那样进行这些频繁的养护活动，即它需要的维护和照料更少。故选B项。
30．词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The artificial animal’s internal programming allows it to ‘build a deeper bond’ with an owner through voice and gesture-based recognition software. It takes a couple of months for Moflin to develop a simulacrum of affection and emotion. (这种人造动物的内部程序使其能够通过基于声音和手势的识别软件与主人“建立更深的联系”。莫夫林需要几个月的时间才能培养出一种情感和情绪的……。)”可知，Moflin是一个人工智能驱动的机器宠物，它本身并没有真正的情感，而是通过编程在几个月的时间里形成一种类似情感的东西。这里的simulacrum应该是指一种人工的、模仿出来的情感状态，而不是真实的情感反应，simulacrum的意思是“人工模仿”。故选D项。
31．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But as TechRadar noted, there is a distinct drawback with this product — namely that Moflin’s 5-hour battery life doesn’t really hold up to, say, a cat’s battery reserves. Recharging takes around 3.5 hours in a bed-like cradle.(但正如TechRadar指出的那样，这款产品有一个明显的缺点——即Moflin的5小时电池续航时间并不能真正承受猫的电池储备。在床状摇篮中充电大约需要3.5小时。)”可知，Moflin的电池续航时间只有5小时，相比之下较短，而且充电需要大约3.5小时，这是它存在的明显缺点，也就是拥有它的最大问题。故选C项。
【答案】32．C 33．A 34．D 35．A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research合作，利用先进的人类回声定位技术，为盲人用户开发一种能够帮助他们准确感知周围环境细节的系统。特别地，该系统通过事件相机和专门算法，将乒乓球运动的图像信息转化为声音，然后通过扬声器传达给盲人玩家，使他们能够通过声音来追踪球的运动。
【解析】32．细节理解题。根据第二段“The process uses event cameras which, unlike normal cameras that take complete images of a scene, track changes in an image over time, making them ideal for the observation of small objects like table tennis balls.(该过程使用事件相机，与拍摄场景完整图像的普通相机不同，事件相机可以跟踪图像随时间的变化，使其非常适合观察像乒乓球这样的小物体。)”可知，事件相机与普通相机的不同点在于他们不断地跟随图象的变化。故选C。
33．推理判断题。根据第三段“Table tennis has been played for decades as a more accessible version of tennis. The sport is beginner-friendly while maintaining a rich level of competitive play.(几十年来，乒乓球一直是一种更容易上手的网球运动。这项运动对初学者是友好的，同时保持了丰富的竞技水平。)”可知，让乒乓球成为这项研究的完美测试案例的是它的独特之处：对初学者友好，同时保持竞技水平。故选A。
34．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“There are limitations on how accurately people can perceive sound localisation. What type of sound should be used Should the sound be continuous This is what we’ll be tackling in the next stage of development(人们感知声音定位的准确度是有限的。应该使用什么类型的声音？这个音应该是连续的吗？这是我们下一个发展阶段要解决的问题)”可知，最后一段关于研究的主要内容是它的技术挑战。故选D。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Working with ARIA Research, a startup developing vision for the blind, Phoebe Peng is using technologically advanced human echolocation (回声定位) that enables blind users to perceive their surroundings in precise detail.(Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research(一家为盲人开发视力的初创公司)合作，使用技术先进的人类回声定位技术，使盲人用户能够准确地感知周围环境的细节。)”和第四段““The small size of the ball and table, along with the movement of the ball in 3D space, are things that make table tennis difficult to play for those with low vision and complete blindness,” said Peng, who is completing the work for her degree. “Making this sport more accessible while also exploring the potential of event cameras were my two biggest motivators,” she said.(Peng，正在完成她的学位研究，说：“乒乓球和乒乓球台的尺寸太小，再加上球在3D空间中的运动，使得那些视力低下和完全失明的人很难打乒乓球。”“让这项运动更容易获得，同时探索赛事摄像机的潜力是我最大的两个动力，”她说。)”可知，本文主要讲的是Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research合作，利用先进的人类回声定位技术，为盲人用户开发一种能够帮助他们准确感知周围环境细节的系统。特别地，该系统通过事件相机和专门算法，将乒乓球运动的图像信息转化为声音，然后通过扬声器传达给盲人玩家，使他们能够通过声音来追踪球的运动，因此本文最好的题目是A选项“Technology Opens up Blind Table Tennis(科技开启了盲人乒乓球)”。故选A。
【答案】36．F 37．C 38．A 39．D 40．G
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何去做不喜欢的事情给出了一些建议。
【解析】36．根据上文“We all have to get through things we don’t like in life, be it small or big, perhaps having to go through a tough set of exams, a driving test or a holiday with someone you really don’t like. In many cases, there’s little we can do to change outside factors.(在生活中，我们都要经历一些我们不喜欢的事情，无论是小事还是大事，也许必须通过一系列艰难的考试，驾驶考试或与你真的不喜欢的人一起度假。在很多情况下，我们几乎无法改变外部因素)”可知，结合文介绍的一些方式减少困难事情的方式可知，空处指出可以从另外角度应对压力。故F选项“然而，我们当然可以用一种压力较小的方式来完成它们”符合语境，故选F。

38．空处为本段主旨句。根据本段内容“We all have to go through hard times in life, but often our greatest joys come as a consequence of our worst pain. Visualize the achievement you will make once you’ve finished the task, think about what you’ re going to do afterward, and use this as a stimulus to keep on going.(我们都要经历人生中的艰难时刻，但我们最大的快乐往往来自于我们最大的痛苦。想象一下完成任务后你将取得的成就，想想之后你要做什么，并以此作为继续前进的动力)”可知，后文提到“想想之后你要做什么，并以此作为继续前进的动力”，即看到将来更大的目标，作为前进的动力。故A选项“看目标”符合语境，故选A。
39．根据上文Don’t be too hard on the way you’re coping with the task.(不要对你处理任务的方式太苛刻)”以及后文“We’re only human after all. Of course, try to see where you can improve, but overly high standards are just ineffective.(毕竟我们只是凡人。当然，试着看看你可以改进的地方，但过高的标准只是无效的)”可知，上文提到不要对自己太苛刻，后文提到过高的标准只是无效的，说明尽力就好，允许自己犯错。故D选项“如果你已经尽了最大的努力，就不要在意犯小错误”符合语境，故选D。
40．根据上文“Reward yourself. Give yourself treats where you can.(奖励自己。尽可能犒劳自己)”以及后文“and do something you enjoy(做一些你喜欢的事情)”可知，本段的主旨是奖励自己，故本句具体说明有哪些奖励自己的方式。故G选项“你可以偶尔买点零食，看部有趣的电影”符合语境，故选G。

【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了《黑神话：悟空》这款电子游戏深受玩家喜爱，并且激发了西方粉丝学习中国文化的热情。
【解析】56．考查冠词。句意：中国热门电子游戏《黑神话：悟空》，这是由Game Science开发的一款动作角色扮演游戏，在周二上午发布仅一小时后，就荣登领先游戏平台Steam“最受欢迎游戏”榜首。此处表示《黑神话：悟空》是Game Science开发的一款动作角色扮演游戏，表泛指，且action的发音以元音音素开头，所以应加不定冠词an。故填an。
57．考查动词的时态。句意参考上题。空格处为句子谓语。根据“merely an hour after its launch on Tuesday morning”可知，此处讲述的是过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。故填came。
58．考查非谓语动词。句意：该游戏改编自中国经典小说《西游记》，成功地“以世界级的品质讲述了中国的故事”。句子已有谓语has succeeded且逗号前后无连词，故空处为非谓语动词。adapt意为“改编”，逻辑主语the game与动词adapt之间是被动关系，所以此处应用过去分词，作状语。故填Adapted。
59．考查形容词。句意：在游戏中，玩家扮演“天命人”的角色，这是一只追随美猴王脚步的猴子，踏上了一段冒险之旅，收集曾经属于孙悟空的六件遗物，挑战天庭。此处应用形容词修饰journey。adventurous意为“勇于冒险的，惊险的”。故填adventurous。
60．考查定语从句。句意参考上题。空处引导定语从句，指代先行词the six Relics，且在从句中作主语，所以应用that/which引导从句。故填that/which。
61．考查非谓语动词。句意为：这款游戏汲取了近1000年中国文化的丰富遗产，其故事情节和人物角色对于许多玩家来说理解起来比较困难，尤其是来自西方国家的玩家。句中proven为系动词，其后形容词difficult作表语，其后跟不定式，构成常见用法系动词+形容词+to do的结构。故填to understand。
62．考查介词。句意：例如，一位玩家在社交媒体上分享说，他们对《西游记》不熟悉，导致他们一直错过隐藏的宝藏，最终导致第2章中的一场终极决斗一再失败。result in为固定搭配，意为“导致”。故填in。
63．考查副词。句意：为了弥合这些文化鸿沟，众多西方粉丝热情地投入了大量的时间和精力。此处应用副词修饰have devoted。enthusiastically意为“热情地”。故填enthusiastically。
64．考查代词。句意：一位玩家写了一份200页的大纲，详细介绍了孙悟空在《西游记》所有100章中的能力，另一位粉丝通过观看电视节目、散文和在线百科全书沉浸在这一史诗中。immerse oneself in sth.为固定用法，意为“沉浸在，深陷于”。故填himself。
65．考查名词的单复数。句意参考上题。此处泛指与《西游记》有关的文章，essay 表示“文章，短文”时是可数名词，且其前没有限定词，所以此处应用复数形式essays。故填essays。

Dear Mike.
How is everything going I am writing to tell you something about the class meeting concerning mental health we had last week.
To raise our awareness of mental health, a class meeting was held in our classroom at 4:00 pm last Tuesday. First, an expert in this field gave us a lecture on the knowledge of mental health. After that, we were asked to share our sources of stress and ways to relieve it, from which all of us learned a lot.
I think it is both interesting and instructive to hold a class meeting like this. Have you had similar class meetings in your school I'm curious about it. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

67．【答案】范文
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I could draw Anita in action. Quickly turning to a blank page, I broadly outlined the shape of my cousin bouncing the soccer ball. My spirits rose with each new line I drew. It was true that I didn’t enjoy playing sports, but I was really enjoying the challenge of trying to sketch my cousin in action! Although it was my first attempt at something like this, I was pleased with the way I’d captured the energy of Anita’s movements. As I was examining my drawing, I didn’t notice the soccer ball was no longer bouncing. I glanced up to see Anita curiously eyeing my drawing. Nervously, I handed the sketchbook to her.
Anita studied the drawing carefully. I resisted the urge to grab the sketchbook and hide. She must think it was totally weird. However, Anita said it was awesome and asked if she could have it. Before I could respond, she had already ripped the drawing out of the sketchbook. Then Anita rummaged through a drawer for a tape, saying that she wasn’t really into art, but thought the drawing should definitely be on display in “our room”. After taping the drawing over one of her posters, Anita said a few changes needed to be made around the room if I was moving in. With a broad smile, I picked up Anita’s soccer ball and tossed it toward my new roommate. “Think fast! ”
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了主人公诺拉搬到纽约姨妈家与表妹安妮塔同住，尽管两人兴趣不同且初次相处略显尴尬，但通过一次意外的素描交流，两人的关系开始有了转机，诺拉为安妮塔画了一幅素描，而安妮塔也对房间布置提出了建议，故事展现了两人之间初识的微妙变化和可能的新友谊。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“突然，我意识到我可以画出安妮塔的动作。”可知，第一段可描写虽然作者不喜欢运动，但是作者尝试使用画画的方式捕捉了表弟运动的动作，并且也尝试着画出安妮塔的动作。当作者在检查自己的画作时，安妮塔发现了作者所创作的画。
②由第二段首句内容“安妮塔仔细研究那幅画。”可知，第二段可描写安妮塔非常喜欢作者的所作的画，并指出虽然自己对艺术不感兴趣，但是对作者创作的这幅画作很感兴趣，并与作者提议将这幅画贴在自己的一张海报上，并且在自己搬进来之前，房间布置需要做一些改变。
2.续写线索：
作者先勾勒出表弟踢球的样子——捕捉到安妮塔的动作——安妮塔好奇并发现了作者的创作——安妮塔称赞作者的画——安妮塔对房间布置提出建议——安妮塔同意与作者成为室友

A self-described “girly girl”, nine-year-old Zandra Cunningham was constantly begging her parents for the latest beauty products. One day her dad simply told her “no”, which inspired her to make her own.
Zandra has been recognized by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the youngest millionaires in America. When asked about her experience as a child entrepreneur (企业家), Zandra says, “It wasn’t frightening. When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality. ‘Maybe it’s not going to work’ never really crossed my mind.” For Zandra, it became a challenge to separate her personal interests from what her customers actually wanted. “There were a lot of things that I felt were a good idea, but it wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers.
It started as a hobby for Zandra and her mom. They’d play around with different ingredients until they found formulas they liked “through a lot of trial and error”. Slowly, they started transforming the pastime into a brand. Zandra began selling her products at local markets, and a few years later — when Zandra was 12 years old — the family started a shop for Zandra Beauty. At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price. The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand — but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.”
“There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” Zandra says. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.”
24．Why was Zandra not scared when she started her business according to herself
A．She was always very daring. B．Her parents supported her greatly.
C．Her young mind made her fearless. D．She had much previous experience.
25．Which of the following is the most important in Zandra’s opinion
A．The need of customers. B．Changing the market.
C．The quality of an idea. D．Sharing her personal interests.
26．What kind of product does Zandra mainly pursue
A．The one that is cheap and useful. B．The one that is enjoyed by her mom.
C．The one that is created by trial and error. D．The one that is reliable and eco-friendly.
27．What is Zandra’s attitude towards the future of her brand
A．Concerned. B．Hopeful. C．Doubtful. D．Relieved.
Casio, perhaps known for watches, is expanding its product line to include “Moflin”, an adorable AI-powered robotic pet. According to the company’s October 10 announcement, this fur ball “becomes attached to its owner.” While currently only accepting pre-orders in Japan ahead of a November 7 release, the device is based on the concept of “Always by your side in your heart.”
A promotional video showcases an owner turning to her Moflin in times of stress or relaxation, cuddling with it. Available in either gold or silver fur, the palm-sized companion sort of resembles a rabbit without ears. It doesn’t seem to be able to really walk, and instead wriggles in place depending on the interaction. Still, its movements are less robotic than those of mechanical pets from the past.
The earliest hints at Mollin Moment first arrived in 2021 through a Kickstarter from the company Vanguard Industries. Since then, it appears the endeavor caught Casio’s eye, who is now hyping the 59, 400 yen (roughly$400)device. Each Moflin also includes an official “MofLife” dedicated app, as well as an additional paid subscription service offering discounted “hospitalization” and “fur care” fees. But the overall costs are likely far less than owning a living pet which demands frequent feeding, cleaning, walking and playing.
The artificial animal’s internal programming allows it to “build a deeper bond” with an owner through voice and gesture-based recognition software. It takes a couple of months for Moflin to develop a simulacrum of affection and emotion. Talking or smiling earns positive responses, while ignoring or frightening Moflin triggers negative emotions.
Right out of the box, Moflin’s movements and voice are still childish. By day 25, however, Casio promises that “you will start to become attached to the animal.” Around day 50 is when owners can expect their fully matured Moflin to offer unique noises and wriggling movements from a range of 4 million different combinations.
But as TechRadar noted, there is a distinct drawback with this product — namely that Moflin’s 5-hour battery life doesn’t really hold up to, say, a cat’s battery reserves. Recharging takes around 3.5 hours in a bed-like cradle.
Will Mollin become the Furby of the Future Only time will tell. It’s certainly less creepy than its 90’s ancestor.
28．What can we infer about Moflin
A．It can walk and play like a real pet. B．It looks like a gold or silver fur ball.
C．It was initially put forward by Casio. D．Its movements are still quite robotic.
29．Why does Moflin cost comparatively less than a real pet
A．It includes a discounted subscription. B．It requires less maintenance and care.
C．It requires no hospital visits or fur care. D．It just takes several months to grow up.
30．What does the underlined word “simulacrum” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Instant feedback. B．Natural response.
C．Random act. D．Artificial imitation.
31．What is the biggest problem of owning Moflin
A．Inability to recognize different owners. B．Negative emotions towards its owner.
C．Short battery life and long recharging time. D．Complex programming for communications.
Working with ARIA Research, a startup developing vision for the blind, Phoebe Peng is using technologically advanced human echolocation (回声定位) that enables blind users to perceive their surroundings in precise detail.
The process uses event cameras which, unlike normal cameras that take complete images of a scene, track changes in an image over time, making them ideal for the observation of small objects like table tennis balls. The images are then processed into sound using a specialised algorithm (算法). This is then communicated back to the player via a lot of loudspeakers, ultimately with the aim of allowing players to track the ball and movements using sounds.
According to Peng, table tennis makes a perfect test case for the kind of technology being developed by ARIA Research. “Table tennis has been played for decades as a more accessible version of tennis. The sport is beginner-friendly while maintaining a rich level of competitive play. However, like many sports, it remains difficult for people who suffer vision loss or have low vision,” said Ms Peng, who will soon complete a Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering.
“The small size of the ball and table, along with the movement of the ball in 3D space, are things that make table tennis difficult to play for those with low vision and complete blindness,” said Peng, who is completing the work for her degree. “Making this sport more accessible while also exploring the potential of event cameras were my two biggest motivators,” she said.
In one study, using two perfectly positioned cameras, Ms Peng was able to identify and track a ball in three dimensions in real time. She then fed that data into an algorithm controlling the loudspeakers standing along the sides of the table, which created a sound field matching the position of the ball.
While the results are promising, more experimentation will be needed before the system will be ready for actual play. “There are limitations on how accurately people can perceive sound localisation. What type of sound should be used Should the sound be continuous This is what we’ll be tackling in the next stage of development,” said Ms Peng.
32．How are event cameras different from normal ones
A．They can have sounds located.
B．They are linked with loudspeakers.
C．They constantly follow image changes.
D．They take complete images of a scene.
33．What makes table tennis a perfect test case for the research
A．Its unique feature. B．Its fierce competition.
C．Its technical complexity. D．Its beginner-friendliness.
34．What is the last paragraph mainly about concerning the study
A．Its inspiring results. B．Its promising future.
C．Its practical applications. D．Its technological challenge.
35．What could be the best title for the text
A．Technology Opens up Blind Table Tennis
B．Blind People Work Wonders in Table Tennis
C．Event Camera Reshapes Future for the Disabled
D．Algorithm Helps Translate Imagination to Sound
How to Do Things You Don’t Like
We all have to get through things we don’t like in life, be it small or big, perhaps having to go through a tough set of exams, a driving test or a holiday with someone you really don’t like. In many cases, there’s little we can do to change outside factors. 36 .
Be aware of the task. Often, what we think is challenging turns out not to be such a big deal. Write down what it is you have to do, ask people who’ve gone through it before and evaluate how bad it truly is.
Prepare yourself in advance. Once you’ve identified what it is you have to do, plan ahead and get ready. 37 . If it’s for going on a terrifying trip, find things which can make it more enjoyable.
38 . We all have to go through hard times in life, but often our greatest joys come as a consequence of our worst pain. Visualize the achievement you will make once you’ve finished the task, think about what you’re going to do afterward, and use this as a stimulus to keep on going.
Don’t be too harsh (严厉的) on yourself. Don’t be too hard on the way you’re coping with the task. 39 . We’re only human after all. Of course, try to see where you can improve, but overly high standards are just ineffective.
Reward yourself. Give yourself treats where you can. 40 , and do something you enjoy. Perhaps you can avoid doing certain things you love in your everyday life and save them for such moments.
A．See the goal
B．See the bigger picture
C．If it’s for public exams, write yourself a timetable
D．If you’re trying your best, leave out small mistakes
E．You should feel worse about anything that goes wrong
F．However, we can certainly get through them all in a less stressful way
G．You can buy the snack you have once in a while, watch a funny film

Chinese hit video game Black Myth: Wukong, 56 action role-playing game developed by Game Science, 57 (come) top of the “most-played games” list on Steam, a leading gaming platform, merely an hour after its launch on Tuesday morning.
58 (adapt) from the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, the game has succeeded in “telling China’s story with world-class quality”. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, a monkey following in the footsteps of the Monkey King on an 59 (adventure) journey to collect the six Relics 60 once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court (天庭). Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult 61 (understand) for many players, especially those from Western countries.
For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting 62 repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. To bridge these cultural divides, numerous Western fans have devoted 63 (enthusiastic) great time and effort. One player wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West, and another fan immersed 64 (he) in the epic by checking out TV shows, 65 (essay) and online encyclopedias. Through this process, Western players have not only refined their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and this classic book.

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。
Knock-knock-knock. “Hello ” I called timidly through my cousin Anita’s bedroom door. No answer. There’s no way she forgot I was moving in today, right I thought. “Anita It’s me, Norah! ” I called again.
I had only met my cousin once a couple of years ago when Anita and Aunt Sonam had flown to California to visit. Mom had hoped Anita and I would be friends. But all Anita wanted to talk about was soccer, which was practically a foreign language to me. Secretly, I had felt relieved when the visit was over.
Now, I was standing in my aunt’s tiny apartment in New York City, and there was still no answer from Anita. I knocked again, a little louder this time. Finally, Anita opened the door. She apologized, saying she had been listening to music. But instead of inviting me in, Anita frowned at my massive suitcase.
Behind her, I could see a blue beanbag chair crowded next to a bunk bed (上下铺). In my old room in California, I’d had a double bed all to myself, and my original artwork had covered all the walls. Anita’s walls, on the other hand, were covered with posters of the U. S. women’s soccer team. I didn’t see any free space to hang anything else.
“C-can I come in ” I asked, blushing. Anita nodded, but she barely moved. I had no choice but to squeeze by her into the room. I put my stuff against the wall and Anita started bouncing the soccer ball from her foot to her knee and back again. Suddenly, her foot kicked the ball at an odd angle, and it accidentally flew toward me. “Whoops! ” Anita called. “Think fast!”
But I was still taking in the surroundings, so the ball caught me off guard and bounced off my shoulder. Forcing a smile, I pretended it didn’t bother me. Unsure of what to do, I took out my sketchbook (素描本) and colored pencils and sat down. Just holding my sketchbook made me feel more at ease. I started sketching aimlessly while Anita went back to bounce her ball.
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I could draw Anita in action. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Anita studied the drawing carefully.

M: Sure. Firstly, when giving feedback, be clear about what the students did well or what they need to improve. Secondly, focus on effort: Rather than only praising or criticizing the result, focus on the effort to achieve it. Thirdly, if a student needs to improve in a particular area, offer suggestions for how to do so.
W: What kind of language do you think we should use when giving feedback
M: Use positive language of course. For example, instead of saying, “You’re doing this wrong,” say, “Let’s try it this way.”
W: Thank you, Mr. Brown. You’ve helped a lot.
M: You’re welcome.
W: By the way, would you like to have dinner with me this weekend
M: Thanks, but I try to avoid eating restaurant food because I have a weak stomach.
W: I’ll cook. I’m good at Chinese food.
M: How can I say no to that

【听力材料】
W: Good evening. I’m your old friend Lisa Brown. Tonight, I’d like to tell you about a new site for tourists in the northern Philippines. A long-lasting drought has caused water in a dam there to disappear. As a result, the ruins of a centuries-old town showed up. The dried-up dam has exposed the foundations of some old buildings. This new-found sight immediately drew the attention of the locals. Residents like Aurea Delos Santos, a retired nurse, express excitement at the sight. It has become an attraction for them and foreign tourists. Therefore, it serves as an additional source of income in an area relying on agriculture. Some locals, like the fisherman Nelson Dellera, have taken the opportunity to profit by taking tourists to the site. The old town had been moved somewhere else in the 1970s during the dam’s construction. The dam now plays an important role in providing water to the region, so the appearance of the site has also caused some concerns. Locals hope the dam will be filled with water again. That’s all for tonight’s program. Thank you for your listening.

22．细节理解题。根据Jigsaw Puzzles from Rottz Games部分的“Or, if none fit your fancy, you can create custom puzzles by uploading images of your own.(或者，如果没有一个符合你的喜好，你可以通过上传自己的图片来创建自定义拼图。)”可知，Rottz Games允许玩家创造自己的拼图游戏。故选D。
23．细节理解题。根据Washington Post Online Jigsaw Puzzle部分的“Some of the latest puzzles include a sandy volleyball scene, a cat on a blanket, and landmark structures from around the world, including the Colosseum in Rome and the Sydney Opera House.(最新的拼图包括沙滩排球的场景，毯子上的猫，以及世界各地的地标建筑，包括罗马斗兽场和悉尼歌剧院。)”可知，Washington Post Online Jigsaw Puzzle提供以世界地标为特色的拼图游戏。故选A。
【答案】24．C 25．A 26．D 27．B
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了9岁女孩 Zandra推出了自己的美容产品，被《企业家》杂志评为美国最年轻的百万富翁之一。
【解析】24．细节理解题。根据第二段“When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality.(当你年轻的时候，你不会有那种恐惧的心态)”可知，赞德拉自己创业的时候一点都不害怕是因为她年轻的头脑使她无所畏惧。故选C。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段““There were a lot of things that I felt were a good idea, but it wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers.(她说：“有很多东西我觉得很好，但不适合市场。”作为市场的一部分，赞德拉觉得她有一个独特的视角，使她能够真正倾听和回应她的客户)”可知，赞德拉认为应该把顾客的需求放在首位。故选A。
26．细节理解题。根据第三段“At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price.The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand — but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.”(当时，赞德拉美容是第一个以可承受的价格提供植物性和有机美容产品的品牌之一。这位21岁的女孩基本上是和她的品牌一起成长的，但她的目标一直保持不变：“我们的主要重点是推出对每个人和地球都安全的神奇产品。”)”可知，赞德拉追求的是可靠和环保的产品。故选D。
27．推理判断题。根据最后一段““There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” Zandra says. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.”(赞德拉说：“有很多品牌在做类似的事情，但仍有很大的增长空间。你的客户就在那里，你只需要找到能让你与众不同的东西。”)”可推知，赞德拉对自己品牌的未来持乐观态度。故选B。
【答案】28．B 29．B 30．D 31．C
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了Casio公司的新产品Molfin这一新一代智能宠物。
【解析】28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Available in either gold or silver fur, the palm-sized companion sort of resembles a rabbit without ears. (有金色或银色皮毛可选，这个手掌大小的伙伴有点像没有耳朵的兔子。)”可知，Moflin有金色或银色的毛，看起来像没有耳朵的兔子，所以它看起来像一个金色或银色的毛球。故选B项。
29．细节理解题。根据第三段中“But the overall costs are likely far less than owning a living pet which demands frequent feeding, cleaning, walking and playing. (但是总体成本可能远低于养一只活的宠物，活宠物需要频繁喂食、清洁、遛弯和玩耍。)”可知，它不需要像真宠物那样进行这些频繁的养护活动，即它需要的维护和照料更少。故选B项。
30．词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The artificial animal’s internal programming allows it to ‘build a deeper bond’ with an owner through voice and gesture-based recognition software. It takes a couple of months for Moflin to develop a simulacrum of affection and emotion. (这种人造动物的内部程序使其能够通过基于声音和手势的识别软件与主人“建立更深的联系”。莫夫林需要几个月的时间才能培养出一种情感和情绪的……。)”可知，Moflin是一个人工智能驱动的机器宠物，它本身并没有真正的情感，而是通过编程在几个月的时间里形成一种类似情感的东西。这里的simulacrum应该是指一种人工的、模仿出来的情感状态，而不是真实的情感反应，simulacrum的意思是“人工模仿”。故选D项。
31．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But as TechRadar noted, there is a distinct drawback with this product — namely that Moflin’s 5-hour battery life doesn’t really hold up to, say, a cat’s battery reserves. Recharging takes around 3.5 hours in a bed-like cradle.(但正如TechRadar指出的那样，这款产品有一个明显的缺点——即Moflin的5小时电池续航时间并不能真正承受猫的电池储备。在床状摇篮中充电大约需要3.5小时。)”可知，Moflin的电池续航时间只有5小时，相比之下较短，而且充电需要大约3.5小时，这是它存在的明显缺点，也就是拥有它的最大问题。故选C项。
【答案】32．C 33．A 34．D 35．A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research合作，利用先进的人类回声定位技术，为盲人用户开发一种能够帮助他们准确感知周围环境细节的系统。特别地，该系统通过事件相机和专门算法，将乒乓球运动的图像信息转化为声音，然后通过扬声器传达给盲人玩家，使他们能够通过声音来追踪球的运动。
【解析】32．细节理解题。根据第二段“The process uses event cameras which, unlike normal cameras that take complete images of a scene, track changes in an image over time, making them ideal for the observation of small objects like table tennis balls.(该过程使用事件相机，与拍摄场景完整图像的普通相机不同，事件相机可以跟踪图像随时间的变化，使其非常适合观察像乒乓球这样的小物体。)”可知，事件相机与普通相机的不同点在于他们不断地跟随图象的变化。故选C。
33．推理判断题。根据第三段“Table tennis has been played for decades as a more accessible version of tennis. The sport is beginner-friendly while maintaining a rich level of competitive play.(几十年来，乒乓球一直是一种更容易上手的网球运动。这项运动对初学者是友好的，同时保持了丰富的竞技水平。)”可知，让乒乓球成为这项研究的完美测试案例的是它的独特之处：对初学者友好，同时保持竞技水平。故选A。
34．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“There are limitations on how accurately people can perceive sound localisation. What type of sound should be used Should the sound be continuous This is what we’ll be tackling in the next stage of development(人们感知声音定位的准确度是有限的。应该使用什么类型的声音？这个音应该是连续的吗？这是我们下一个发展阶段要解决的问题)”可知，最后一段关于研究的主要内容是它的技术挑战。故选D。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Working with ARIA Research, a startup developing vision for the blind, Phoebe Peng is using technologically advanced human echolocation (回声定位) that enables blind users to perceive their surroundings in precise detail.(Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research(一家为盲人开发视力的初创公司)合作，使用技术先进的人类回声定位技术，使盲人用户能够准确地感知周围环境的细节。)”和第四段““The small size of the ball and table, along with the movement of the ball in 3D space, are things that make table tennis difficult to play for those with low vision and complete blindness,” said Peng, who is completing the work for her degree. “Making this sport more accessible while also exploring the potential of event cameras were my two biggest motivators,” she said.(Peng，正在完成她的学位研究，说：“乒乓球和乒乓球台的尺寸太小，再加上球在3D空间中的运动，使得那些视力低下和完全失明的人很难打乒乓球。”“让这项运动更容易获得，同时探索赛事摄像机的潜力是我最大的两个动力，”她说。)”可知，本文主要讲的是Phoebe Peng与ARIA Research合作，利用先进的人类回声定位技术，为盲人用户开发一种能够帮助他们准确感知周围环境细节的系统。特别地，该系统通过事件相机和专门算法，将乒乓球运动的图像信息转化为声音，然后通过扬声器传达给盲人玩家，使他们能够通过声音来追踪球的运动，因此本文最好的题目是A选项“Technology Opens up Blind Table Tennis(科技开启了盲人乒乓球)”。故选A。

38．空处为本段主旨句。根据本段内容“We all have to go through hard times in life, but often our greatest joys come as a consequence of our worst pain. Visualize the achievement you will make once you’ve finished the task, think about what you’ re going to do afterward, and use this as a stimulus to keep on going.(我们都要经历人生中的艰难时刻，但我们最大的快乐往往来自于我们最大的痛苦。想象一下完成任务后你将取得的成就，想想之后你要做什么，并以此作为继续前进的动力)”可知，后文提到“想想之后你要做什么，并以此作为继续前进的动力”，即看到将来更大的目标，作为前进的动力。故A选项“看目标”符合语境，故选A。

Of course, try to see where you can improve, but overly high standards are just ineffective.(毕竟我们只是凡人。当然，试着看看你可以改进的地方，但过高的标准只是无效的)”可知，上文提到不要对自己太苛刻，后文提到过高的标准只是无效的，说明尽力就好，允许自己犯错。故D选项“如果你已经尽了最大的努力，就不要在意犯小错误”符合语境，故选D。
40．根据上文“Reward yourself. Give yourself treats where you can.(奖励自己。尽可能犒劳自己)”以及后文“and do something you enjoy(做一些你喜欢的事情)”可知，本段的主旨是奖励自己，故本句具体说明有哪些奖励自己的方式。故G选项“你可以偶尔买点零食，看部有趣的电影”符合语境，故选G。

【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了《黑神话：悟空》这款电子游戏深受玩家喜爱，并且激发了西方粉丝学习中国文化的热情。
【解析】56．考查冠词。句意：中国热门电子游戏《黑神话：悟空》，这是由Game Science开发的一款动作角色扮演游戏，在周二上午发布仅一小时后，就荣登领先游戏平台Steam“最受欢迎游戏”榜首。此处表示《黑神话：悟空》是Game Science开发的一款动作角色扮演游戏，表泛指，且action的发音以元音音素开头，所以应加不定冠词an。故填an。
57．考查动词的时态。句意参考上题。空格处为句子谓语。根据“merely an hour after its launch on Tuesday morning”可知，此处讲述的是过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。故填came。
58．考查非谓语动词。句意：该游戏改编自中国经典小说《西游记》，成功地“以世界级的品质讲述了中国的故事”。句子已有谓语has succeeded且逗号前后无连词，故空处为非谓语动词。adapt意为“改编”，逻辑主语the game与动词adapt之间是被动关系，所以此处应用过去分词，作状语。故填Adapted。
59．考查形容词。句意：在游戏中，玩家扮演“天命人”的角色，这是一只追随美猴王脚步的猴子，踏上了一段冒险之旅，收集曾经属于孙悟空的六件遗物，挑战天庭。此处应用形容词修饰journey。adventurous意为“勇于冒险的，惊险的”。故填adventurous。
60．考查定语从句。句意参考上题。空处引导定语从句，指代先行词the six Relics，且在从句中作主语，所以应用that/which引导从句。故填that/which。
61．考查非谓语动词。句意为：这款游戏汲取了近1000年中国文化的丰富遗产，其故事情节和人物角色对于许多玩家来说理解起来比较困难，尤其是来自西方国家的玩家。句中proven为系动词，其后形容词difficult作表语，其后跟不定式，构成常见用法系动词+形容词+to do的结构。故填to understand。
62．考查介词。句意：例如，一位玩家在社交媒体上分享说，他们对《西游记》不熟悉，导致他们一直错过隐藏的宝藏，最终导致第2章中的一场终极决斗一再失败。result in为固定搭配，意为“导致”。故填in。
63．考查副词。句意：为了弥合这些文化鸿沟，众多西方粉丝热情地投入了大量的时间和精力。此处应用副词修饰have devoted。enthusiastically意为“热情地”。故填enthusiastically。
64．考查代词。句意：一位玩家写了一份200页的大纲，详细介绍了孙悟空在《西游记》所有100章中的能力，另一位粉丝通过观看电视节目、散文和在线百科全书沉浸在这一史诗中。immerse oneself in sth.为固定用法，意为“沉浸在，深陷于”。故填himself。
65．考查名词的单复数。句意参考上题。此处泛指与《西游记》有关的文章，essay 表示“文章，短文”时是可数名词，且其前没有限定词，所以此处应用复数形式essays。故填essays。

Dear Mike.
How is everything going I am writing to tell you something about the class meeting concerning mental health we had last week.
To raise our awareness of mental health, a class meeting was held in our classroom at 4:00 pm last Tuesday. First, an expert in this field gave us a lecture on the knowledge of mental health. After that, we were asked to share our sources of stress and ways to relieve it, from which all of us learned a lot.
I think it is both interesting and instructive to hold a class meeting like this. Have you had similar class meetings in your school I'm curious about it. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

67．【答案】范文
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I could draw Anita in action. Quickly turning to a blank page, I broadly outlined the shape of my cousin bouncing the soccer ball. My spirits rose with each new line I drew. It was true that I didn’t enjoy playing sports, but I was really enjoying the challenge of trying to sketch my cousin in action! Although it was my first attempt at something like this, I was pleased with the way I’d captured the energy of Anita’s movements. As I was examining my drawing, I didn’t notice the soccer ball was no longer bouncing. I glanced up to see Anita curiously eyeing my drawing. Nervously, I handed the sketchbook to her.
Anita studied the drawing carefully. I resisted the urge to grab the sketchbook and hide. She must think it was totally weird. However, Anita said it was awesome and asked if she could have it. Before I could respond, she had already ripped the drawing out of the sketchbook. Then Anita rummaged through a drawer for a tape, saying that she wasn’t really into art, but thought the drawing should definitely be on display in “our room”. After taping the drawing over one of her posters, Anita said a few changes needed to be made around the room if I was moving in. With a broad smile, I picked up Anita’s soccer ball and tossed it toward my new roommate. “Think fast! ”
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了主人公诺拉搬到纽约姨妈家与表妹安妮塔同住，尽管两人兴趣不同且初次相处略显尴尬，但通过一次意外的素描交流，两人的关系开始有了转机，诺拉为安妮塔画了一幅素描，而安妮塔也对房间布置提出了建议，故事展现了两人之间初识的微妙变化和可能的新友谊。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“突然，我意识到我可以画出安妮塔的动作。”可知，第一段可描写虽然作者不喜欢运动，但是作者尝试使用画画的方式捕捉了表弟运动的动作，并且也尝试着画出安妮塔的动作。当作者在检查自己的画作时，安妮塔发现了作者所创作的画。
②由第二段首句内容“安妮塔仔细研究那幅画。”可知，第二段可描写安妮塔非常喜欢作者的所作的画，并指出虽然自己对艺术不感兴趣，但是对作者创作的这幅画作很感兴趣，并与作者提议将这幅画贴在自己的一张海报上，并且在自己搬进来之前，房间布置需要做一些改变。
2.续写线索：
作者先勾勒出表弟踢球的样子——捕捉到安妮塔的动作——安妮塔好奇并发现了作者的创作——安妮塔称赞作者的画——安妮塔对房间布置提出建议——安妮塔同意与作者成为室友
