阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

What Is a Soup Kitchen
A soup kitchen is a place where free food (usually soup and bread) is served to the homeless without judgment or discrimination(歧视). These places are usually run by charitable(慈善的) or religious organizations and staffed by volunteers. In reality, however, a soup kitchen is so much more than that.
What Does a Soup Kitchen Do
Soup kitchens have become a place of refuge (避难所) for those less fortunate souls. It gives them hope that all is not lost and there are still people who care for them. Here, they are not judged, discriminated against, or made to feel like they’re worthless. Instead, they are cared for and treated as equals.
The most important thing a soup kitchen does, however, is providing the homeless with a sense of belonging. For someone who doesn’t have a place of their own, this is a big deal.
How Do Soup Kitchens Help the Community
Throughout history and in most cultures, the sharing of food to the less fortunate is a common practice. Society has always felt a moral obligation(道德义务) to help its most vulnerable(脆弱的) members.
Not only does it encourage charity, but it also brings the community together. It helps break social boundaries as rich and poor, young and old gather together to share a meal. More importantly, it teaches young children the importance of empathy(同理心).
Why Is a Soup Kitchen Called a Soup Kitchen
Since ancient times, charitable organizations have been serving soup to the poor and hungry. A hot soup can be very filling, making it the ultimate(最终的) food choice for relief organizations with limited resources. Then during the Great Depression, these types of food assistance places became more well-known in the US. People would line up in these places (which usually featured large kitchens) to get their daily ration(定量) of soup and bread. And that’s how the term “soup kitchen” came about.
A soup kitchen is a place where ________.
A. Homeless people act as volunteers. B. Charitable organizations hold activities.
C. Free food is served to the homeless. D. People are judged by what food they eat.
22. What is the most important thing a soup kitchen provides
A. Life value. B. Racial equality.
C. Health care. D. Social acceptance.
23. What is mentioned about a soup kitchen in the last paragraph
A. The reason for its popularity. B. The origin of its name.
C. The change of its resources. D. The variety of its food.
B
It’s often said that people who are born blind or lose their sight, especially when young, can touch, taste, smell, and hear better than those who can see. Donna Posont, who is blind, helps others use their enhanced hearing(增强的听力) to detect(探测) thousands of bird songs.
Posont is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Dearborn. She leads a monthly program she founded at the college. It’s called Birding by Ear and Beyond. It’s held on Saturday each month. During the program, Posont leads visually-impaired(视力受损的) people through 120 acres(英亩) of campus forest. They listen for the sounds of many birds. These include crows, geese, chickadees, woodpeckers, robins, and red-winged blackbirds.
Participants learn to tell the sometimes subtle differences between bird species(物种). They also learn how each bird fits into their habitat(栖息地). “The world is designed for sighted people(视力正常的人), but nature is a special place where it’s okay to be blind,” Posont told The Washington Post. “You can use your other senses to learn why birds and nature are important and how it all works (as one). To me, that’s the beauty of it.”
Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions(认知) and embrace the world through a different point. The ability to identify birds by ear becomes a gateway(门户) to understanding the relationships within ecosystems(生态系统) and the value of nature.
What does Posont’s program focus on
Helping blind people identify birds by sound.
Leading blind people to protect campus forest.
Training blind people to be nature guides.
Providing blind people a safe outdoor space.
25. Why does Posont think nature is a special place for blind people
A. Nature helps people learn about birds’ habitat.
B. Nature benefits blind people’s physical health.
C. Blind people can study the behavior of wildlife.
D. Blind people can experience nature with other senses.
26. What can you infer from the last paragraph
A. The challenge of Posont’s program. B. The process of Posont’s program.
C. The importance of Posont’s program. D. The development of Posont’s program.
27. Which would be the best title for the text
A. Natural Sound: A Journey to the Unknown. B. Birding by Ear: A Program for the Blind.
C. Beauty of Nature: A Journey of Discovery. D. Donna Posont: A Volunteer for Bird Protection.
C
China has become the world’s largest producer and market of EVs(电动汽车). According to a report, 9.58 million Chinese-made EVs were produced and 9.49 million were sold in 2023. Among the total sales, 1.2 million EVs were exported(出口).
The Chinese government has been encouraging EVs as part of its effort for green, high-quality development. As a result, China’s EV industry develops very quickly. At Auto(汽车) China 2004, BYD was the only company showing EVs there. At Auto China 2024, there were 278 different EV models on show, including BYD, SAIC, Geely, Li Auto, Nio, Xpeng and other brands(品牌).
China’s EV industry is now facing both challenges and chances. It’s reported that 71% of EV brands cut prices in 2023. EV makers without the ability of innovation(创新) will face growing risks. In order to be both green and smart, Chinese EV makers are trying hard to improve technologies like battery quality and AI support. At the same time, the government is adding even more charging points(充电站). On the other hand, more Chinese people are aware of the environmental problems. It is encouraging more buyers to choose EVs.
EVs are the way of the future. In an ideal world, everyone benefits from innovation and green transport. Some might get there sooner than others, and will gain greater rewards. It is very likely that China will hold the lead.
28. How many Chinese-made EVs were sold in China in 2023
A. 8.29 million. B. 8.38 million.
C. 9.49 million. D. 9.58 million.
29. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2
A. To introduce different EV brands in China.
B. To give some information about Auto China.
C. To advise people to buy Chinese-made EVs.
D. To show the development of China’s EV industry.
30. EV makers can most probably reduce growing risks by ________.
A. Adding more charging points. B. Dealing with environmental problems.
C. Improving innovation ability. D. Winning the government’s support.
31. What’s the writer’s attitude(态度) towards the future of China’s EV industry
A. Doubtful. B. Uncertain. C. Hopeful. D. Worried.
D
In recent years, the concept of “slow travel” has appeared as a reaction to the fast-paced tourism that dominates(主宰) the industry. Slow travel encourages travelers to engage deeply with local cultures, stay longer in destinations, and form meaningful connections with local communities.
One of the key principles(原则) of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact(影响). By choosing to stay in locally-owned accommodations(住宿), eating at family-run restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can greatly decrease their carbon footprint. For instance, a study found that tourists who engage in slow travel produce up to 70% less greenhouse gas emissions(排放) compared to those on traditional package tours.
Slow travel also allows for a deeper cultural understanding. Instead of rushing through tourist attractions, slow travelers take the time to participate in local traditions, learn about historical importance, and interact with locals. This not only enriches the travel experience but also provides economic benefits to local communities. In some rural areas, “slow travel” has helped preserve(保存) endangered crafts(工艺) and save dying traditions.
However, slow travel is not without challenges. It requires more planning and flexibility(灵活). As travelers need to research local customs, transportation options, and authentic(真实的) experiences. Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget(预算) limit. For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic.
Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow. Travelers are becoming more aware of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable(可持续的) ways to explore the world. As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slow-travel options, such as longer home-stays and cultural experience programs.
Which is the benefit of slow travel
A. It can save money on traveling.
B. It can be more environmentally friendly.
C. It can increase the income of travel companies.
D. It can allow travelers to visit more places hurriedly.
33. What can we learn about slow travel from the third paragraph
A. It has little impact on local economies.
B. It focuses on interactions with travelers.
C. It discourages travelers from learning about history.
D. It may contribute to the preservation of traditional crafts.
34. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Attractive. B. Comfortable. C.Classical. D. Practical.
35. What can be inferred about the future of slow travel
A. It will cost less as time passes.
B. It will only be affordable for rich travelers.
C. It may become more popular in the future.
D. It will take the place of traditional tourism entirely.
第二节（共5小题； 每小题2. 5分, 共12. 5分）
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
School days mean homework, studying, exams, and social interactions(互动) — not to mention getting up early every morning. It’s understandable if you don’t always feel your happiest going to school during the week. 36 The following tips can help you feel happier on school days.
Focus on the good things about school. 37 Think about the bigger picture and how your education will have a positive impact on your life in the long run. If you’re having a bad day, tell yourself that you only have to be in school for a relatively short period of your life. After that, the sky is the limit!
Do something nice for someone. Making other people smile can improve your own happiness. 38 Or, thank a teacher for a fun activity or an interesting lesson. If you see someone else that looks like they might be feeling down, tell them you like their hair style or praise the work they have done.
39 If someone isn’t nice to you at school, it’s probably not your fault. Try to remember that nobody is perfect and think about what might be going on in their lives that makes them act negatively(消极地) towards you. Try your best to sweep away a dirty look or a bad comment and move on without getting angry and upset.
Reward yourself. Once you get that big A on your exam or work, don’t forget to go out and celebrate! It’s always great to reward yourself when you do something good especially when it will benefit your future in so many ways! Always believe that you can and you will go a long way! No one can change your future except you. 40
A. Smile more often.
B. Try not to take negativity from others too serious.
C. But it’s also something you can totally improve!
D. Give another student some positive encouragement.
E. Do the best of what you have, and try to have some fun along the way.
F. A little positive thinking can go a long way towards improving your mood.
G. Whether in school or at home, you look for ways to make learning more enjoyable.

Fleanor Love knows that weddings create a lot of leftover flowers. That means more opportunities for her to collect after-wedding bouquets(花束) and give them to her lonely hospital 41 , many of whom don’t often have visitors, let alone expensive 42 .
The flowers are still in good shape, and the patients are pleased to have them. “I was so 43 that I cried,” said patient Connie Melzer, who was recovering from a heart problem when Love walked into her room with a bouquet in early 2020.
Love worked at the Virginia Commonwealth University Hospital as a(n) 44 student. She wondered how she could help 45 the patients’ suffering besides learning how to treat them as a student doctor.
“One of the 46 of being a medical student is that it can be very difficult to 47 to the care team,” said Love. “You are there as a learner, who doesn’t have as much knowledge as doctors. But you want to 48 your patients. How can I at this stage in my training make a(n) 49 for them ”
In 2019, she started The Simple Sunflower in Richmond, and so far has 50 more than 760 bouquets to patients. She brought fellow students and other people into her project, and now has more than 200 51 on the email list.
When Love began the project, she called businesses such as wedding venues(场馆) and florists(花店) and asked them what events were scheduled. She then reached out to brides and grooms to ask them if they had 52 for their flowers after the big day.
For each wedding, she organized a team of eight people who helped 53 the flowers when the party was over and then spent time carrying them to individual patients.
People beyond the community have heard about Love’s project and become part of it. “Once the word got out, people around the city started 54 us,” Love said. She wanted to bring the project to more cities and maybe open branches at other medical schools.
“I feel 55 when I see the patients who receive our bouquets,” she said. “It reminds me why we do what we do.”
41. A. cleaners B. nurses C. patients D. doctors
42. A. flowers B. cakes C. cards D. fruits

Jacopo showed a strong interest in art in his childhood. While studying at the University of Milan, Jacopo took a master’s course in graphic design and printing technology. Before coming to China, Jacopo knew almost nothing about it. With a strong curiosity about this country, Jacopo moved to Beijing in 2001. “I planned to spend two weeks knowing about China, but later I found the time was far from enough, and I’ve been here for more than 20 years until now,” Jacopo said. He created some paintings with traditional colors to show his love for traditional Chinese culture. The happiest time for Jacopo was after enjoying his artworks, some visitors who didn’t understand art began to show interest in it and realized art is part of their life. Having lived in China for more than two decades, Jacopo said he was amazed by the country’s rapid development. Now, he has put down roots in Beijing. “China and Italy have something in common — we both value family. I was born in Italy and live in China. China is now my home and I will continue to live and work here,” he said.

People would line up in these places (which usually featured large kitchens) to get their daily ration (定量) of soup and bread. And that’s how the term “soup kitchen” came about.(自古以来，慈善组织就一直在为穷人和饥饿者提供汤食。热汤很有饱腹感，因此对于资源有限的救援组织来说，它是最理想的食品选择。在大萧条时期，这类提供食物援助的场所在美国变得更加为人所知。人们会聚集在这些场所（通常设有大型厨房）里，领取他们每天定量的汤和面包。就这样，“救济厨房”这个术语便应运而生了)”可知，救济厨房名字的由来。故选B。

These include crows, geese, chickadees, woodpeckers, robins, and red-winged blackbirds. (在这个项目中，波斯特带领视障人士穿过120英亩的校园森林。他们倾听许多鸟的叫声。这些鸟类包括乌鸦、鹅、山雀、啄木鸟、知更鸟和红翼黑鸟)”可知，Posont 的项目旨在帮助视障人士通过声音辨别鸟类。故选A项。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段中 Posont 所说“The world is designed for sighted people, but nature is a special place where it’s okay to be blind(这个世界是为视力正常的人设计的，但大自然是一个特殊的地方，在那里盲人也没关系)”以及“You can use your other senses to learn why birds and nature are important and how it all works.(你可以用你的其他感官来了解为什么鸟类和自然是重要的，以及它们是如何作为一个整体运作的)”可知，她认为自然界为视障人士提供了利用其他感官体验世界的机会。故选D项。
26.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different point. The ability to identify birds by ear becomes a gateway to understanding the relationships within ecosystems and the value of nature.(通过她的项目，Posont不仅帮助视障人士与自然联系，还激励他们挑战自己的认知，通过不同的视角拥抱世界。通过耳朵识别鸟类的能力成为理解生态系统内部关系和自然价值的门户)”可知，该段总结了Posont 的项目的重要意义，说明它不仅帮助视障人士与自然建立联系，更重要的是鼓励他们挑战感知，从不同的角度拥抱世界。通过辨别鸟类声音，他们能够理解生态系统中的关系和自然价值，从而实现自我成长。故选C项。
27.主旨大意题。根据第一段“It’s often said that people who are born blind or lose their sight, especially when young, can touch, taste, smell, and hear better than those who can see. Donna Posont, who is blind, helps others use their enhanced hearing to detect thousands of bird songs.(人们常说，天生失明或失明的人，尤其是在年轻时，比那些能看见的人在触觉、味觉、嗅觉和听觉方面都要好。唐娜·波森特是盲人，她帮助其他人利用他们增强的听觉来探测成千上万的鸟鸣)”及第二段“She leads a monthly program she founded at the college. It’s called Birding by Ear and Beyond.(她领导着她在学院创立的一个月度项目)”及最后一段“Through her program, Posont not only helps visually impaired individuals connect with nature but also inspires them to challenge their perceptions and embrace the world through a different point.(通过她的项目，Posont不仅帮助视障人士与自然联系，还激励他们挑战自己的认知，通过不同的视角拥抱世界)”并结合全文可知，本文主要讲述了 Donna Posont 为视障人士创办的Birding by Ear and Beyond项目，该项目以声音辨别鸟类为核心，并介绍了这个项目的具体安排及其意义。故选B项。
【C篇答案】28.A 29.D 30.C 31.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是中国电动汽车（EV）产业的发展现状、政策支持、面临的挑战与机遇，以及未来前景。
28．细节理解题。根据第一段“According to a report, 9.58 million Chinese-made EVs were produced and 9.49 million were sold in 2023. Among the total sales, 1.2 million EVs were exported (出口).(根据一份报告，2023年中国制造的电动汽车产量为958万辆，销量为949万辆。其中，电动汽车出口120万辆。)”可知，2023年在中国销售的中国制造的电动汽车是949万辆减去120万辆，等于829万辆，故选A。
29.推理判断题。根据第二段“The Chinese government has been encouraging EVs as part of its effort for green, high-quality development. As a result, China’s EV industry develops very quickly.(中国政府一直鼓励发展电动汽车，将其作为实现绿色、高质量发展的一部分。因此，中国的电动汽车产业发展非常迅速。)”可知，第二段的目的是展示中国电动汽车产业的发展。故选D。
30.细节理解题。根据第三段“EV makers without the ability of innovation (创新) will face growing risks.(没有创新能力的电动汽车制造商将面临越来越大的风险。)”可知，电动汽车制造商很可能通过提高创新能力来降低不断增长的风险。故选C。
31.推理判断题。根据最后一段“EVs are the way of the future. In an ideal world, everyone benefits from innovation and green transport. Some might get there sooner than others, and will gain greater rewards. It is very likely that China will hold the lead.(电动汽车是未来的发展方向。在一个理想的世界里，每个人都能从创新和绿色交通中受益。有些人可能会比其他人更早到达那里，并将获得更大的回报。中国很有可能保持领先地位。)”可知，作者对中国电动汽车行业的未来充满希望。故选C。
【D篇答案】32.B 33.D 34.D 35.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍“慢旅行”这一概念，阐述其减少环境影响、深化文化理解的优势，提及面临的挑战及未来发展趋势。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“One of the key principles of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact. By choosing to stay in locally-owned accommodations, eating at family-run restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can greatly decrease their carbon footprint. (慢旅行的核心原则之一是减少环境影响。通过选择入住当地经营的住宿、在家庭经营的餐厅用餐、使用公共交通或自行车，旅行者能大幅降低碳足迹。)”可知，慢旅行能减少环境影响、降低碳足迹，具备更环保的优势。故选B项。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In some rural areas, “slow travel” has helped preserve (保存) endangered crafts and save dying traditions. (在一些农村地区，“慢旅行”助力保护濒危手工艺，挽救濒临消失的传统。)”可知，慢旅行对传统手工艺的保护有积极作用，可能有助于传统手工艺的传承。故选D项。
34.词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget limit. For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic. (此外，受时间或预算限制，慢旅行可能并非对所有人都feasible。对于工作繁忙的职场人士或假期有限的家庭来说，在一个目的地待数周似乎不现实。)”可知，“unrealistic(不现实的)”是对“not feasible”的解释，由此可推测“feasible”意为“切实可行的”。故选D项。
35.推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow. Travelers are becoming more aware of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable ways to explore the world. As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slow-travel options. (尽管存在这些挑战，慢旅行趋势仍在持续发展。旅行者愈发意识到自身对环境和文化的影响，许多人在寻求更真实、可持续的探索世界的方式。因此，旅游公司正开始提供更多慢旅行选择。)”可知，慢旅行趋势在发展，旅行者需求增加且旅游公司积极配合，由此可推断其未来可能会更受欢迎。故选C项。

57.考查冠词。句意：根据历史记载，每年农历八月二十七日，是中国伟大的思想家孔子(公元前551- 479年)的生日，皇帝会到孔庙去向这位著名的哲学家表示敬意，许多朝廷官员也会随行。Confucius Temple是专有名词，意为“孔庙”，需用定冠词the表特指。故填the。

第五部分 写作（满分15分）
A Self-Discovery Journey at “Know Yourself”
Aimed at guiding freshmen in gaining a deeper understanding of themselves and promoting mental well-being, a series of activities themed “Know Yourself” were held by our school’s Psychology Club last Saturday in the school library, with the participation of psychology teachers, club members and students interested in self-exploration.
As scheduled, a variety of events were well organized, ranging from a lecture on understanding personality traits given by a psychology teacher to small-group discussions where we shared daily troubles. What impressed me most was the psychological test session. Through the carefully designed questions, we got a clearer picture of our strengths and weaknesses. However, it was the “sincere self-introduction” part that pushed the activity to a new height, where heartfelt introductions and sharing of personal stories were so inspiring and empathy-evoking.
This activity turned out to be a great success and was highly thought of by every participant.
