A
Children may act out in verbally and physically aggressive ways as a result of feeling threatened or when they have difficulty in managing emotions, controlling actions, or understanding social situations. If your child shows similar behaviors, as a parent, you may wonder if you should be concerned.
Characteristics of an Aggressive Child
An aggressive child is generally not a happy child. An aggressive child may be fearful or falsely perceive threats in the environment. In these situations, the aggressive behavior may represent self-defense in anxiety-provoking situations, also known as the fight response to stress. In older children, physical aggression may be the result of poorly controlled impulses or inability to control emotions.
Causes of Aggressive Behavior
Underlying reasons for aggression in children may include neurodevelopmental disorders (神经发育障碍) like autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit, anxiety disorder, depressive disorder. Family factors that may contribute to aggression in children may include harsh parenting, abuse, neglect, parental substance use or untreated mental health conditions, and family conflict. External environmental factors that may cause aggressive behaviors in children range from being bullied at school, the influence of aggressive peers, or exposure to violence in the community or on TV, in video games or other media.
Strategies to Address Aggression
Research shows that children learn best through praise and rewarding good behavior, while punishment can be harmful and less effective or even ineffective in some children. Parents and teachers may benefit from “catching them being good” and using reward charts to encourage positive behaviors. It’s important for parents to work with their child’s school so that all adults involved with the child are on the same page and are able to support the child consistently.
1. What may cause a child to be aggressive
A. Feeling physically weak. B. Lacking self-protection.
C. Rejecting parental support. D. Suffering peer bullying.
2. How can parents handle aggression in children
A. Encourage good actions with rewards.
B. Use effective punishment approaches.
C. Ask schools to separate their children.
D. Ban students from using social media.
3. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A medical journal. B. A parenting guide.
C. A psychology blog. D. A children’s storybook.
【答案】1. D 2. A 3. B
B
After graduating from high school, the three of us girls kept in touch. But as we got older, years passed without seeing each other. We changed careers, circumstances and addresses.
In the spring of 2014, after Rich and Chris spent a weekend biking trails together in Virginia, Chris suggested the three of us plan a tour. I had worried some before that first tour. How well did we know each other after all these years Did we have as much in common as we used to Would we have enough to talk about We would be on trails for hours at a time for days. Some days we’d be riding in bad weather. We might get tired and cranky. What if none of these were fun
I needn’t have worried. We have plenty to talk about. We know each other better, now, than ever. We get tired and cranky. Yes, it’s fun. On the trail we talk about friends we have in common and friends we don’t, books, movies, and music. We talk about places we’ve lived or traveled, and other places we might tour. We talk about the things we can’t let go of — things we did, or failed to do; opportunities we missed, or took; choices, good and bad. We circle back to certain conversations and revisit what we heard or said.
Moving through a changing landscape, following the rivers or the coast, seems to open us to wider, if not deeper, thinking. Having no goal other than to reach our lodging (借宿) before dark presents an unanticipated opportunity to stretch our understanding of each other and ourselves. Unhurried days in nature in the company of friends turn out to be conducive to reflection.
The pleasures that we don’t anticipate stay with us longest and get richer over time. Among these are friendships that persist despite life’s weather, or because of it.
As I write, Chris and Rich are preparing to fly to California, where we’ll ride the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur, near my home. Already, Tour 3 is under way. In our messages we joke with one another, testing out our lines. We plan, we disagree and complain, we express enthusiasm, and we start conversations, knowing they’ll continue on the trails.
4. Why did the author ask lots of questions before the tour
A. She worried whether the biking trip was worthwhile.
B. She wondered if they still shared the same interests.
C. She doubted whether they prepared everything ahead.
D. She wasn’t sure if they were physically strong enough.
5. What did the author and her friends do when they toured together
A. They had deep conversations about life experiences.
B. They recalled childhood friends vividly and repeatedly.
C They enjoyed unhurried reflection with new friends.
D. They raced competitively along coastal landscapes.
6. How does the author feel about the upcoming Tour 3
A. Anxious about potential disagreements.
B. Indifferent due to the familiarity of the route.
C. Excited for another opportunity to bond.
D. Hopeful because of the physical demands.
7. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Road trips help to fix broken relationships.
B. Traveling together creates new friendships easily.
C. A cycling journey deepens long-term friendships.
D. Biking adventures reconnect childhood companions.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. C

Some foods are highly processed or ultra-processed. Ultra-processed foods (UPF) have become increasingly popular and range from chips to microwave meals and even bread. Even just a casual glance at supermarket shelves reveals a collection of UPF offerings in delicate and attractive packaging. Besides their affordability, UPF not only offer time-saving convenience, but also momentary satisfaction filled with fat, sugar, salt and additives. After all, who can resist enjoying a tasty snack when lost in a football game or an exciting new TV series
Although much is discussed about the direct negative impact of these products on our health, including obesity, heart diseases and diabetes, little has been said about the impacts of UPF on the environment. The most serious environmental impacts of UPF-rich diets mainly come from the post-farm stages, especially from the final product creation and packaging processes.
One specific additive that has the most environmental impact is palm oil. Palm oil is responsible for deforestation of some of the world’s big forests, which have diverse animals and plants. It is one of the world’s most consumed vegetable oils that can be found in half of our food. The massive waste generated by over-packaged UPF is another factor to consider. Their plastic packaging doesn't degrade in landfills or in nature and has a dramatic impact on soil health and life in the sea. One recent study published in Nature Sustainability demonstrates that UPF processing and packaging stages have the greatest environmental impacts of the whole system and are a major source of environmental waste worldwide.
The environmental impact of ultra-processed foods cannot be ignored any longer. While producers must take action, it is our growing awareness of what we buy and how it is produced that drives real change. By choosing wisely — whether by rejecting heavily processed options or supporting sustainable brands — we exercise the power to shape a better food system, a responsibility we must embrace.
8. What can be learned about UPF from the first paragraph
A. They are primarily consumed during casual leisure activities.
B. They are carefully produced to be environmentally friendly.
C. They are filled with various kinds of healthy added nutrients.
D. They are favored by many for their fancy packages and flavors.
9. Why palm oil was introduced in the text
A. To compare it with some other vegetable oils.
B. To explain UPF's harmful environmental effects.
C. To show its relationship with animals and plants.
D. To discuss factors of UPF's packaging-related pollution.
10. What does the author think of the role we play in fighting UPF
A. Tiny. B. Essential. C. Replaceable. D. Limited.
11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. From Shelf to Soil: the Hidden Journey of UPF
B. Fast and Cheap: UPF Take Over Our Daily Diets
C. Beyond the Shelf: UPF Are Harming the Planet
D. Convenience at a Cost: the Health Damage of UPF
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C
D
It’s 2025, and you just ride in a robotaxi for the first time. Getting a ride is as easy as hailing a taxi, and the ride itself is better: you control the music and don’t need to make small talk. Above all, the trip is safe.
If you decide to buy a new car today, chances are the vehicle you’d drive off the lot would have some autonomous capabilities — it might be able to parallel park itself, for example, or hit the brakes if the car in front of you suddenly slows. For the foreseeable future, though, if you want to check your emails on your way to work, your only option might be to hail a robotaxi owned and operated by someone else.
Instead of trying to sell autonomous cars directly to consumers, autonomous vehicle developers plan to use their vehicles like self-driving taxis, providing rides to customers on demand once hailed via apps. This gives developers control over where and how their autonomous vehicles are used, helping avoid some potential liability (责任) issues. Because the autonomous vehicles themselves are on the road a lot more than private cars tend to be, the robotaxi model also gives developers the opportunity to collect more data — the kind needed to improve the systems — more quickly. It also allows them to generate income continuously from the expensive vehicles, rather than having them mostly sit parked in driveways and lots. It may not be enough to offset research and development or hardware costs right now, but if the robotaxi industry grows the way many experts predict, the market could end up being huge.
It’s not just the US where robotaxis are being researched, tested, and even deployed. China is the other leader right now, and it is proceeding on roughly the same timeline as the US. In 2023, a few cities in China, including Beijing and Shanghai, received government permission to run robotaxis on the road. Robotaxis are being popularized at cut-throat prices in Wuhan. It has ambitions to become the world’s first driverless city.
12. How does the author introduce the topic of the robotaxi
A. By comparing it with regular taxis.
B. By quoting traffic safety reports.
C. By analyzing its smart functions.
D. By describing a riding experience.
13. Why do developers avoid selling autonomous cars directly to consumers
A. To maintain control over vehicle usage and avoid legal risks.
B. To make autonomous cars affordable for average consumers.
C. To speed up data transmission for systematic improvements.
D. To help most autonomous car companies make steady profits.
14. What does the underlined word “offset” in the third paragraph mean
A. Put up with. B. Make up for.
C. Cut down on. D. Take advantage of.
15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. Different nations are working together to develop robotaxi technology.
B. Robotaxi markets are expanding aggressively across China’s major cities.
C. Chinese governments are actively investing in the rising robotaxi industry.
D. Several Chinese cities are making rapid progress in robotaxi development.

【答案】Dear Chris,
Last Friday, our school organized a fascinating lecture about AI and future careers, which I believe you’d find interesting too!
The speaker, a tech expert, explained how AI is changing various industries. He mentioned that while some traditional jobs might disappear, new roles like AI trainers will emerge. What surprised me most was his emphasis on “human skills” — creativity and emotional intelligence will become even more valuable in the AI era.
This lecture really made me think. I used to worry that AI would replace humans, but now I see it as a tool we can master. Looking forward to your thoughts!
Best,
Li Hua

47. 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。
“Mommy, daddy!” young Matt screamed, running into the house. “Our lantern is gone,” he explained as he tried to catch his breath. Matt, with his mother and father following, walked outside and looked at the Spring Festival decorations adorning the front of their house. “It's gone,” his father sighed, noticing the missing lantern. “I bet it was stolen by a neighbor.” “That lantern was my favorite decoration,” Matt sadly noted. “Do you think we can get it back ” “I don't know, son,” his father replied in a frustrated tone. All three retreated (离开) back into the house. The atmosphere had changed from happy and cheery to somber and reflective. An uncharacteristic silence had smothered the holiday spirit.
Darkness fell with Matt and his father standing on the sidewalk gazing at the lighted decorations. Their eyes kept returning to the empty place where the lantern had been hung. Both Matt and his father remained void of any holiday cheer.
Matt’s mother came outside to join them. “Come on guys,” she pleaded, “cheer up... it’s Spring Festival.” “I miss my lantern, Mommy. We made it with our own hands. Not worth a lot of money but it does have a lot of memories,” Matt replied with a sad tone. “I just can't understand why someone would steal it,” Matt's father added. “Look,” Matt’s mother interrupted, “you two are letting this ruin your festival. We have each other, a beautiful home, and look at all those wonderful decorations on our house and the other houses on our street.” “I keep hoping my lantern will come home,” Matt sighed. “Well, I will go inside and turn on some good music and try to enjoy the evening,” Matt’s mother proclaimed (明确表示) as she walked away.
A distant crisp jangling of the bicycle interrupted the discussion. They looked at that direction as two figures approached. “It looks like a man and a boy,” Matt’s father observed. “and that’s our lantern behind their bicycle seat!”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
The man came over and asked politely, “Is this your house ”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The boy proudly handed back the beautifully restored lantern.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The man came over and asked politely, “Is this your house ” Matt’s father nodded cautiously, noticing their lantern. “We found it damaged on the sidewalk,” the boy explained shyly. “The frame was bent and the candleholder loose — we just wanted to fix it.” Matt’s eyes widened. “So you didn’t steal it ” Relief washed over the family as the boy shook his head. “Thank you,” Matt’s father said sincerely. “This means so much to us.” The man smiled warmly, “Spring Festival should be about kindness.”
The boy proudly handed back the beautifully restored lantern. Its frame straightened, silk polished, with a new tassel gleaming. “It’s better than before!” Matt gasped. His mother clasped her hands, “You've given us more than a decoration.” Touched, Matt’s father invited them in for snacks. As laughter filled the house, Matt realized the true festival magic wasn’t in decorations, but in the kindness that made them special. Outside, neighborhood lights twinkled like stars, mirroring their joy.浙江强基联盟2025年5月高二联考

A
Children may act out in verbally and physically aggressive ways as a result of feeling threatened or when they have difficulty in managing emotions, controlling actions, or understanding social situations. If your child shows similar behaviors, as a parent, you may wonder if you should be concerned.
Characteristics of an Aggressive Child
An aggressive child is generally not a happy child. An aggressive child may be fearful or falsely perceive threats in the environment. In these situations, the aggressive behavior may represent self-defense in anxiety-provoking situations, also known as the fight response to stress. In older children, physical aggression may be the result of poorly controlled impulses or inability to control emotions.
Causes of Aggressive Behavior
Underlying reasons for aggression in children may include neurodevelopmental disorders (神经发育障碍) like autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit, anxiety disorder, depressive disorder. Family factors that may contribute to aggression in children may include harsh parenting, abuse, neglect, parental substance use or untreated mental health conditions, and family conflict. External environmental factors that may cause aggressive behaviors in children range from being bullied at school, the influence of aggressive peers, or exposure to violence in the community or on TV, in video games or other media.
Strategies to Address Aggression
Research shows that children learn best through praise and rewarding good behavior, while punishment can be harmful and less effective or even ineffective in some children. Parents and teachers may benefit from “catching them being good” and using reward charts to encourage positive behaviors. It’s important for parents to work with their child’s school so that all adults involved with the child are on the same page and are able to support the child consistently.
1. What may cause a child to be aggressive
A. Feeling physically weak. B. Lacking self-protection.
C. Rejecting parental support. D. Suffering peer bullying.
2. How can parents handle aggression in children
A. Encourage good actions with rewards.
B. Use effective punishment approaches.
C. Ask schools to separate their children.
D. Ban students from using social media.
3. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A medical journal. B. A parenting guide.
C. A psychology blog. D. A children’s storybook.
B
After graduating from high school, the three of us girls kept in touch. But as we got older, years passed without seeing each other. We changed careers, circumstances and addresses.
In the spring of 2014, after Rich and Chris spent a weekend biking trails together in Virginia, Chris suggested the three of us plan a tour. I had worried some before that first tour. How well did we know each other after all these years Did we have as much in common as we used to Would we have enough to talk about We would be on trails for hours at a time for days. Some days we’d be riding in bad weather. We might get tired and cranky. What if none of these were fun
I needn’t have worried. We have plenty to talk about. We know each other better, now, than ever. We get tired and cranky. Yes, it’s fun. On the trail we talk about friends we have in common and friends we don’t, books, movies, and music. We talk about places we’ve lived or traveled, and other places we might tour. We talk about the things we can’t let go of — things we did, or failed to do; opportunities we missed, or took; choices, good and bad. We circle back to certain conversations and revisit what we heard or said.
Moving through a changing landscape, following the rivers or the coast, seems to open us to wider, if not deeper, thinking. Having no goal other than to reach our lodging (借宿) before dark presents an unanticipated opportunity to stretch our understanding of each other and ourselves. Unhurried days in nature in the company of friends turn out to be conducive to reflection.
The pleasures that we don’t anticipate stay with us longest and get richer over time. Among these are friendships that persist despite life’s weather, or because of it.
As I write, Chris and Rich are preparing to fly to California, where we’ll ride the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur, near my home. Already, Tour 3 is under way. In our messages we joke with one another, testing out our lines. We plan, we disagree and complain, we express enthusiasm, and we start conversations, knowing they’ll continue on the trails.
4. Why did the author ask lots of questions before the tour
A. She worried whether the biking trip was worthwhile.
B. She wondered if they still shared the same interests.
C. She doubted whether they prepared everything ahead.
D. She wasn’t sure if they were physically strong enough.
5. What did the author and her friends do when they toured together
A. They had deep conversations about life experiences.
B. They recalled childhood friends vividly and repeatedly.
C They enjoyed unhurried reflection with new friends.
D. They raced competitively along coastal landscapes.
6. How does the author feel about the upcoming Tour 3
A. Anxious about potential disagreements.
B. Indifferent due to the familiarity of the route.
C. Excited for another opportunity to bond.
D. Hopeful because of the physical demands.
7. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Road trips help to fix broken relationships.
B. Traveling together creates new friendships easily.
C. A cycling journey deepens long-term friendships.
D. Biking adventures reconnect childhood companions.
C
Some foods are highly processed or ultra-processed. Ultra-processed foods (UPF) have become increasingly popular and range from chips to microwave meals and even bread. Even just a casual glance at supermarket shelves reveals a collection of UPF offerings in delicate and attractive packaging. Besides their affordability, UPF not only offer time-saving convenience, but also momentary satisfaction filled with fat, sugar, salt and additives. After all, who can resist enjoying a tasty snack when lost in a football game or an exciting new TV series
Although much is discussed about the direct negative impact of these products on our health, including obesity, heart diseases and diabetes, little has been said about the impacts of UPF on the environment. The most serious environmental impacts of UPF-rich diets mainly come from the post-farm stages, especially from the final product creation and packaging processes.
One specific additive that has the most environmental impact is palm oil. Palm oil is responsible for deforestation of some of the world’s big forests, which have diverse animals and plants. It is one of the world’s most consumed vegetable oils that can be found in half of our food. The massive waste generated by over-packaged UPF is another factor to consider. Their plastic packaging doesn't degrade in landfills or in nature and has a dramatic impact on soil health and life in the sea. One recent study published in Nature Sustainability demonstrates that UPF processing and packaging stages have the greatest environmental impacts of the whole system and are a major source of environmental waste worldwide.
The environmental impact of ultra-processed foods cannot be ignored any longer. While producers must take action, it is our growing awareness of what we buy and how it is produced that drives real change. By choosing wisely — whether by rejecting heavily processed options or supporting sustainable brands — we exercise the power to shape a better food system, a responsibility we must embrace.
8. What can be learned about UPF from the first paragraph
A. They are primarily consumed during casual leisure activities.
B. They are carefully produced to be environmentally friendly.
C. They are filled with various kinds of healthy added nutrients.
D. They are favored by many for their fancy packages and flavors.
9. Why palm oil was introduced in the text
A. To compare it with some other vegetable oils.
B. To explain UPF's harmful environmental effects.
C. To show its relationship with animals and plants.
D. To discuss factors of UPF's packaging-related pollution.
10. What does the author think of the role we play in fighting UPF
A. Tiny. B. Essential. C. Replaceable. D. Limited.
11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. From Shelf to Soil: the Hidden Journey of UPF
B. Fast and Cheap: UPF Take Over Our Daily Diets
C. Beyond the Shelf: UPF Are Harming the Planet
D. Convenience at a Cost: the Health Damage of UPF
D
It’s 2025, and you just ride in a robotaxi for the first time. Getting a ride is as easy as hailing a taxi, and the ride itself is better: you control the music and don’t need to make small talk. Above all, the trip is safe.
If you decide to buy a new car today, chances are the vehicle you’d drive off the lot would have some autonomous capabilities — it might be able to parallel park itself, for example, or hit the brakes if the car in front of you suddenly slows. For the foreseeable future, though, if you want to check your emails on your way to work, your only option might be to hail a robotaxi owned and operated by someone else.
Instead of trying to sell autonomous cars directly to consumers, autonomous vehicle developers plan to use their vehicles like self-driving taxis, providing rides to customers on demand once hailed via apps. This gives developers control over where and how their autonomous vehicles are used, helping avoid some potential liability (责任) issues. Because the autonomous vehicles themselves are on the road a lot more than private cars tend to be, the robotaxi model also gives developers the opportunity to collect more data — the kind needed to improve the systems — more quickly. It also allows them to generate income continuously from the expensive vehicles, rather than having them mostly sit parked in driveways and lots. It may not be enough to offset research and development or hardware costs right now, but if the robotaxi industry grows the way many experts predict, the market could end up being huge.
It’s not just the US where robotaxis are being researched, tested, and even deployed. China is the other leader right now, and it is proceeding on roughly the same timeline as the US. In 2023, a few cities in China, including Beijing and Shanghai, received government permission to run robotaxis on the road. Robotaxis are being popularized at cut-throat prices in Wuhan. It has ambitions to become the world’s first driverless city.
12. How does the author introduce the topic of the robotaxi
A. By comparing it with regular taxis.
B. By quoting traffic safety reports.
C. By analyzing its smart functions.
D. By describing a riding experience.
13. Why do developers avoid selling autonomous cars directly to consumers
A. To maintain control over vehicle usage and avoid legal risks.
B. To make autonomous cars affordable for average consumers.
C. To speed up data transmission for systematic improvements.
D. To help most autonomous car companies make steady profits.
14. What does the underlined word “offset” in the third paragraph mean
A. Put up with. B. Make up for.
C. Cut down on. D. Take advantage of.
15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. Different nations are working together to develop robotaxi technology.
B. Robotaxi markets are expanding aggressively across China’s major cities.
C. Chinese governments are actively investing in the rising robotaxi industry.
D. Several Chinese cities are making rapid progress in robotaxi development.

“Mommy, daddy!” young Matt screamed, running into the house. “Our lantern is gone,” he explained as he tried to catch his breath. Matt, with his mother and father following, walked outside and looked at the Spring Festival decorations adorning the front of their house. “It's gone,” his father sighed, noticing the missing lantern. “I bet it was stolen by a neighbor.” “That lantern was my favorite decoration,” Matt sadly noted. “Do you think we can get it back ” “I don't know, son,” his father replied in a frustrated tone. All three retreated (离开) back into the house. The atmosphere had changed from happy and cheery to somber and reflective. An uncharacteristic silence had smothered the holiday spirit.
Darkness fell with Matt and his father standing on the sidewalk gazing at the lighted decorations. Their eyes kept returning to the empty place where the lantern had been hung. Both Matt and his father remained void of any holiday cheer.
Matt’s mother came outside to join them. “Come on guys,” she pleaded, “cheer up... it’s Spring Festival.” “I miss my lantern, Mommy. We made it with our own hands. Not worth a lot of money but it does have a lot of memories,” Matt replied with a sad tone. “I just can't understand why someone would steal it,” Matt's father added. “Look,” Matt’s mother interrupted, “you two are letting this ruin your festival. We have each other, a beautiful home, and look at all those wonderful decorations on our house and the other houses on our street.” “I keep hoping my lantern will come home,” Matt sighed. “Well, I will go inside and turn on some good music and try to enjoy the evening,” Matt’s mother proclaimed (明确表示) as she walked away.
A distant crisp jangling of the bicycle interrupted the discussion. They looked at that direction as two figures approached. “It looks like a man and a boy,” Matt’s father observed. “and that’s our lantern behind their bicycle seat!”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
