The chaos of travel through Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) calms down when you walk
into the Orchestrina. At the start of a 1,000-foot-long hallway connecting Tom Bradley International
Terminal’s (航站楼) Great Hall to its west gates, the light softens to blue. What amazes passengers is the
gentle waves of music that greets them as they are carried through the terminal by the moving sidewalk.
Along the way, the music shifts between 30 compositions from well-known artists.
The Orchestrina, a piece of public art equipment from L.A. radio and Dublab, is part of a new three-
year contract for the station to program live music and sound art at LAX. It’s an introduction to L.A.’s
experimental music and art scenes. As passengers are on edge over the many things going wrong in the
skies these days, the Orchestrina offers an experience of tasteful, mental peace.
“That’s absolutely the intention, to offer, like, a break from the fast-paced urban schedule,” said
Cohen, executive director of Dublab, “There’s a really interesting effect when you enter the hallway,
coming down this long set of stairs and entering this blue light that completely surrounds you with music
and field recordings where you can hear birds and wind passing through grass.” There are many events
planned for the three years to come, as Dublab tries to make one of the most awful locations in the county
somewhere you might intend staying longer and listening.
“We desire to reflect our city, and I think we’ve got to include the arts programming as part of that.
At the end of the day, we’re all just human beings using these public spaces.” explained Sarah Cifarelli,
LAX Art Program Director. “That’s part of the point — to show off the city for anyone looking closely
and make it gentler for anyone passing through. These are the things that you kind of live and work for,
being part of the heartbeat of the city,” Cohen said, “It’s another step towards being integrated into the
city whether intentionally or not.”
24. What impresses the passengers when they walk into the Orchestrina
A. The long hallway. B. The blue light.
C. The moving sidewalk. D. The relaxing music.
25. What will Dublab’s three-year project bring according to Cohen
A. A refreshing interaction with nature.
B. A momentary escape from busy routine.
C. The increase in LAX’s commercial value.
D. The promotion of local artists and their music.
26. What is the arts programming aimed at
A. Making full use of public spaces. B. Attracting travelers to settle in the city.
C. Displaying the city’s identity. D. Speeding up the city’s development.
第3页/共8页
27. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. Dublab’s Music: a Relief from Stress
B. Exploring LAX: Finding Peace in Light
C. LAX’s New Art Program: Peace in Chaos
D. Orchestrina: a High-tech Design in the City
C
Bacteria (细菌) know how to rough it out all over the earth. Ask most of them where they’d truly
prefer to settle, though, and a kitchen sponge (海绵) would probably top the list. Yes, it turns out that the
very tool we use to clean our plates, which is warm, damp, and full of nutritious food pieces, is packed of
tiny life.
Lingchong You, a biologist at Duke University, along with his team, used computers to model the
complex environment of a sponge for a 2022 study. He found that sponges featuring pockets of varying
sizes are something that really matters for promoting bacterial growth. This holds significance as certain
bacteria tend to grow independently while others demand the companionship of others. Within a sponge
filled with holes and pockets, there exist such an abundance of diverse structures that everyone attains a
state of satisfaction.
Nevertheless, it does not necessarily follow that these tools present a health risk to us as well.
Bacteria exist everywhere and not all are harmful; in fact, many perform vital jobs. The important
question is, therefore: are the bacteria found in sponges even worth worrying about
In 2017, Jennifer Quinlan, a professor of food safety, and her colleagues, collected kitchen sponges
from 100 homes, finding that only 1-2% of those sponges contained bacteria linked to food poisoning in
humans and the ones that did contained only small amounts of harmful bacteria. “The vast majority of
bacteria on sponges do not cause illness, and they’re just going to make them smell.” says Quinlan.
“Having said that, there is a possibility that if you use a sponge to wipe up raw meat, you could have
some of those disease-causing bacteria on there, and studies have found that those bacteria can be
detected from kitchen sponges.”
This is not the whole story yet. If dangerous bacteria happen to arrive on the scene, the sponge’s
special make-up makes it an ideal place for them to grow and multiply. And there’s evidence this is the
case.
28. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Sponges are perfect tools in the kitchen.
B. Bacteria prefer to live in dry environment.
C. Kitchen sponges are good home for bacteria.
D. Bacteria affect kitchen sponges’ performance.
29. What did Lingchong You find in his study
A. How sponges are exactly structured.
B. What encourages bacterial growth.
C. How bacteria react to the environment.
D. Why bacteria keep company with each other.
30. What does Quinlan think of bacteria on sponges
A. Relatively harmless. B. Poorly adaptive.
C. Surprisingly unpleasant. D. Widely distributed.
31. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph
第4页/共8页
A. Proofs of bacterial threat.
B. The classification of bacteria.
C. The ideal environment for bacterial growth.
D. Research into applications of bacteria.
D
“Shhh!” This is the demand that eco-acousticians (生态声学) researcher Jér me Sueur makes of
humanity. The noises of technology spread across even the remotest corners of the planet. Sueur explores
the impact of the ever-present sound on the animal world in Natural History of Silence.
Between travelogue-style (游记式的) chapters and philosophical reflections, the book covers many
key terms and theories, such as the acoustic niche hypothesis (声学生态位假说), which assumes that
each species has its own acoustic space to improve communication with its own kind and limit sound
competition from other species. Sueur’s point is this: silence is a crucial resource, like food or water,
which species compete for to survive. “Making sound is important,” he writes. But humans need to “make
sure we are not more alive than others”.
When the COVID-19 pandemic unexpectedly put human activities on hold, noise-monitoring
organizations in France recorded a 60-75% drop in sound levels in many cities. Globally, wildlife
communication changed during lockdowns. Fish and dolphins off the coast of New Zealand extended the
range of their calls by 65% owing to a sharp reduction in boat travel. However, when humans emerged
from their homes, so did all human-generated sounds and their harmful effects on natural systems, Sueur
writes.
Sueur calls for a greater awareness of the need to preserve zones where noise is not welcome,
effectively proposing a global network of silent shelters for wildlife. The book, thus, highlights an
imaginary dividing line between humanity and nature — an approach to conservation that has thwarted
contemporary environmentalists who believe true conservation success comes from building a
harmonious bond with nature. Some even argue against it in public and attempt to seek more all-around
solutions that involve local and indigenous (本土) communities.
To encourage readers to act, the book could have included stories about successful no-fly zones
where communities are working to address the problem. But the focus on solutions is narrow. Plus, his
winding and wordy writing often carries a tone of anger, which could drive away the people he wants to
reach.
32. What’s the point Sueur emphasizes in the book
A. Travel helps us understand nature.
B. Silence is a resource humans must share.
C. Sound is key to species communication.
D. Noise is unavoidable in modern life.
33. Why are fish and dolphins mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To show the destruction caused by the pandemic.
B. To stress the role of animals in the local ecosystem.
C. To illustrate the impact of human activities on wildlife.
D. To compare responses of different animals to lockdowns.
34. What does the underlined word “thwarted” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Enlightened. B. Transformed.
C. Misled. D. Discouraged.
第5页/共8页
35. What can we learn about the book from the last paragraph
A. It is written in an objective tone.
B. It serves its writing purpose well.
C. It fails to relate to certain readers.
D. It conveys rather shallow ideas.

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。
In my freshman year of college, I had a habit of sitting in the same spot every day in my economics
class. It was a comfortable little corner near the window, where the sunlight would stream in and warm
the desk. I loved this spot because it gave me a sense of routine and comfort during the busy college life.
One day, as I settled into my usual seat, I noticed a new face sitting next to me. She was a foreign
exchange student named Mia, who had just arrived from Italy. Her English was basic, and the most
complex sentence I had heard her say was, “I love this sunny weather!” Despite the language barrier, Mia
always greeted me with a bright smile and a cheerful “Morning, Alex!” every day.
Mia had a habit of spreading her belongings across my desk space. Her notebooks, snacks, and even
her colorful scarf would somehow find their way onto my side. Each time I walked into class, Mia would
quickly realize her mistake, flash an apologetic smile, and say, “Oh, Alex! Sorry, sorry!” while hurriedly
clearing my space. She would then give a nod and ask, “Ready for class, yeah ”
Initially, I found this routine mildly annoying. I thought to myself, “Why can’t she keep her things
on her side Doesn’t she know I sit here every day ” The last thing I wanted was to deal with a guy who
barely spoke my language at eight in the morning. Just get your stuff off my desk!
One particularly busy morning, I arrived a few minutes late for class. As I stood outside the
classroom, finishing a quick phone call, I noticed through the window that my desk was, as usual,
occupied by Mia’s things. However, before I could enter, another student, also running late, walked into
the room and headed straight for my seat.

Possible Version 1 (支持版):
Should Community Service be a Requirement for Graduation
When it comes to whether students should be required to complete community service to graduate, I am
firmly convinced of its benefits.
Firstly, participating in community events allows us to see firsthand the difference we can make. It
fosters a sense of social responsibility — an essential quality for any citizen. Moreover, engaging in
community service helps us develop skills like communication, teamwork, and leadership. These skills are
invaluable not only in academic settings but also highly sought-after in the job market, giving us an edge in
the competitive world.
In conclusion, making community service a graduation requirement better prepares us for life beyond
high school. It equips us with skills and values that will serve us well into the future. (120)
Possible version 2 (反对版):
Should Community Service be a Requirement for Graduation
Well-intentioned as it is, I don’t think making community service a requirement for graduation is a wise
choice.
To start with, volunteering should be motivated by a genuine desire to help others, not by obligation.
When it becomes a requirement, students may see it as just another item on their to-do list, which weakens
the heartfelt impact it should have. Moreover, considering the different challenges students face — such as
heavy schoolwork, family duties, or relationship issues — a one-size-fits-all requirement is not appropriate.
Therefore, schools should inspire students to get involved in community service instead of forcing them
to participate. Only in this way will students be more likely to engage in community service, creating a more
meaningful and lasting impact. (120)
读后续写
I watched as Mia’s eyes followed the newcomer. Just as he was about to sit down, Mia sprang into
action, her movements swift and purposeful. She jumped up and stepped slightly in front of the chair to
block his path. “Excuse me,” she said with a friendly yet determined tone. The student looked puzzled, his
eyebrows drawing together in confusion at the unexpected interruption. “My friend Alex sits here,” Mia
explained, gesturing towards the door where I stood, her expression softening into a warm smile as she
pointed me out. (82)
Then I realized Mia didn’t mean to inconvenience me. On the contrary, she was saving my seat every
day. My face burned with shame for misinterpreting her kindness. After a brief pause, I approached my seat
and said apologetically, “Thank you, Mia, for being so thoughtful.” From that day onwards, I started helping
Mia with her English and invited her to join our study group. That experience taught me to look beyond my
first assumptions and served as a reminder of how a simple act of kindness can go a long way in building
meaningful relationships. (87)

生物学家 Lingchong You的研究,他通过计算机模拟发现海绵中不同大小的孔洞对细菌生长的重要性。
文章还提到,尽管海绵上的细菌数量众多,但大多数细菌对人类无害,只有少数可能导致食物中毒。
此外,文章讨论了在特定情况下(如擦拭生肉后),海绵上可能携带的有害细菌及其传播风险。
28. C 细节理解题。根据“Bacteria know how to rough it out all over the earth. Ask most of them where
they’d truly prefer to settle though, and a kitchen sponge (海绵) would probably top the list.”可知,厨房海
绵是细菌的理想栖息地。因此,答案为 C。
29. B 细节理解题。根据“He found that sponges featuring pockets of varying sizes are something that really
matters for promoting bacterial growth.”可知,Lingchong You的研究发现,海绵中不同大小的孔洞对促
进细菌生长至关重要。因此,答案为 B。
30. A 推理判断题。根据“‘The vast majority of bacteria on sponges do not cause illness, and they’re just
going to make them smell.’ says Quinlan.”可知,Quinlan认为海绵上的大多数细菌相对无害,只是会让
海绵有异味。因此,答案为 A。
31. A 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“...And there’s evidence this is the case.”可知,接下来可能会讨论关
于细菌威胁的证据。因此,答案为 A。
D【语篇解读】文体: 议论文(生态学研究)
主要内容:本文探讨了人类活动对动物世界的影响,特别是噪音对动物生存和交流的影响。文章基于
生态声学研究者 Jér me Sueur的著作《Natural History of Silence》,介绍了“声学生态位假说”,即每个
物种都有其独特的声学空间,用于同类之间的交流并减少与其他物种的声音竞争。文章指出,人类活
动产生的噪音对动物的生存构成了威胁,并以新冠疫情封锁期间噪音水平的显著下降为例,说明了噪
音减少对动物交流的积极影响。此外,文章还讨论了 Sueur提出的保护野生动物免受噪音干扰的建议,
以及这一观点在当代环保主义者中引发的争议。最后,文章对书中提出的解决方案和写作风格做出批
判式评价。
32. B 细节理解题。A选项提到的是书中的游记式内容,但与 Sueur的核心观点无关;C选项的表述
虽然正确,但没有抓住 Sueur强调的安静是物种生存的重要资源的核心观点。第二段最后一句话反映
了 Sueur的观点:安静是一种关键资源,物种为了生存而竞争这种资源,而人类需要意识到自己的行
为对其他物种的影响,避免过度干扰。B项准确地反映了原文中 Sueur的核心观点,即安静是一种关
键资源,人类需要与其他物种共享这种资源。因此,选 B。
33. C 推理判断题。根据“Fish and dolphins off the coast of New Zealand extended the range of their calls
by 65% owing to a sharp reduction in boat travel.”新西兰海岸附近的鱼类和海豚因为船只旅行的急剧减
少而扩大了它们的叫声范围,这说明人类活动对野生动物产生了影响。这段文字通过具体的例子,清
晰地对比了人类活动对自然声音环境的影响,
强调安静环境对野生动物的重要性,警示人类活动对自然系统的潜在危害,通过具体数据和实例增强
论点的说服力。因此,答案为 C。
34. D 词义猜测题。根据“The book, thus, highlights an imaginary dividing line between humanity and
nature —— an approach to conservation that has thwarted contemporary environmentalists who believe true
conservation success comes from building a harmonious bond with nature.”可知,这本书强调了人类与自
然之间的想象分界线——这种保护方法阻碍了当代环保主义者,因为他们认为真正的保护成功来自于
与自然建立和谐的关系。这本书提出了一种将人类和自然分开的保护方法,这种观点与当代环保主义
者的观点相冲突。当代环保主义者认为,真正的保护成功应该是通过与自然建立和谐的关系来实现的,
而不是通过划分界限。因此,答案为 D。
35. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“...But the focus on solutions is narrow. Plus, his winding and wordy
writing often carries a tone of anger, which could drive away the people he wants to silence.”指出本书两个
缺点:对解决方案的关注过于狭窄;作者的写作风格冗长且带有愤怒的语气,可能会赶走他希望影响
的人群。D项是不完全准确的,“Shallow” 通常指缺乏深度或复杂性,而这段内容并没有提到书中
的想法本身是简单的或缺乏深度的。相反,它指出的是书中的方法、解决方案和写作风格存在问题,
这些问题阻碍了信息的有效传达和读者的参与。更准确的评价应该是关于书中方法和呈现方式的局限
性。因此,答案为 C。
七选五
【语篇解读】
主要内容:本文主要介绍了Mighty Roar这一组织的使命和特色服务,旨在激发读者参与其志愿者项
目,体验一种与众不同的旅行方式,同时为全球社区和环境保护做出贡献。文章通过多个段落,分别
从不同角度阐述了该组织的核心价值和优势。
36. E 36题所在位置要承上启下,E项不仅能够很好地将开头的热情描述与下文Mighty Roar项目的
具体工作方式联系起来,还为读者提供了一个清晰的因果关系,即团队的热情和目标是他们创建
“Mighty Roar”的原因。这样的过渡逻辑清晰,内容连贯,能够很好地引出下文对团队工作方式和
态度的进一步描述。
37. G 根据上文“...You can contact us through online chat, by email, text, social media or telephone.”以及
下文“...allowing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to all travelers.”可知,这里强调的是他们通过多种联
系方式,使志愿者项目尽可能对所有旅行者开放。因此,答案为 G。
38. D 38 题的位置说明要选择小标题。根据下文“...Not only do our volunteer programs directly help
within the local community, but we ensure that all tasks aid the local economy, respect all cultures and
support the development of the local infrastructure...”可知,这里强调的是他们的所有社区项目都是可持
续的,旨在帮助当地社区的同时,促进当地经济发展、尊重所有文化和支持当地基础设施的发展。因
此,答案为 D。B项“We are committed to conservation”虽然与文章开头提到的“help conserve animals”
相呼应,但是保护的范围较窄,主要集中在环境保护或动物保护上,无法全面涵盖下文提到的社区发
展和经济支持等内容。
39. A 上文提出团队的快速发展和项目推广依赖于志愿者们的好体验。志愿者们的积极体验会促使
他们留下好评,因此好评是团队成功的关键因素之一。下文又提及团队自豪于自己的 5星评分声誉,
因此使用 A项逻辑连贯。
40. C 最后一个自然段号召读者们选择该项目做志愿者服务,40题后一句罗列了诸多志愿者活动,
因此,答案为 C,“我们有完美体验在等着你”。

M: I don’t understand. I made a reservation.
W: Yes, sir. Unfortunately, we ran out of those cars.

M: Mrs. Brown, I want to speak to you about Billy’s work. I think Billy has made some good improvement
this year compared to last year.
W: Well, of course. Last year, we moved here and it wasn’t a very settled time for Billy. So, Billy probably
didn’t do his best work.
M: I see. We’ve put a story that he wrote back in March in the school newspaper. You should’ve read it. But
there were many words spelt wrong in his work.
W: Yes, we have tried at home to help him. His sister, Kathy, often tests him on words that he often gets

first to speak up.

M: Scientists in Germany have cast doubt on a previously believed assumption that the processing speed of
our brain starts to decline from the age of 20. Until now, it has been thought that our level of
understanding peaks when we are 20 and declines thereafter. Lead researcher doctor Mischa von Krause,
of Heidelberg University, offered hope to older people who worry about increasing forgetfulness or
reduced brainpower. He said mental abilities were still powerful at the age of 60 and do not decrease
before then. The study was based on data from over 1.1 million people aged between 10 and 80 years old.
The results showed that our mental processing speed remains relatively constant until the age of 60, but
does start to decline from our seventh decade. The researchers said people’s mental processing speed
actually increases in their 20s and remains high until 60. Dr. von Krause said until older adulthood, the
speed of information processing in the task they studied hardly changed. He added that older people do
take longer to make decisions, but said this was because we become more cautious and responsible as we
age. The study could cast light on diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
