In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America's beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut(首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. Critics quickly spoke out, calling her early performance a disappointment for the No. 1 overall pick.
But the struggles didn't last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever's fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year's total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark's leadership that powered the team's comeback. Against Seattle, Clark finished with 23 points, five rebounds and nine assists, but it's her confidence that leaps out. The former Hawkeye has regained not just her shot, but her charisma(魅力) and control. On the court, almost all of the action is again flowing through her as she creates opportunities for others. Her vision—her ability to find teammates moving quickly up the court—remains impressively precise.
By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women's basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark's play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. Though Paris gold was still won by the U.S., I agree with Staley: a chance to lift the sport was missed. Oh well. Clark will use the rejection for fuel, and Los Angeles 2028 awaits her.
Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark's comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league's ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory—Clark is ready for even greater success.
24. What caused Clark’s poor performance at the start of her WNBA career
A. A stronger opponent. B. Pressure from critics.
C. A shift of environment. D. Her decline in fitness.
25. What was the key to the Fever's win over the Storm
A. Clark's competence in leading. B. Clark's adjustments in strategy.
C. Fever's enhancement in teamwork. D. Storm’s turnaround in performance.
26. What is Staley's attitude to Clark
A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Unconcerned. D. Supportive.
27. Which of the following words best describe Clark
A. Adaptable and determined. B. Considerate and resourceful.
C. Talented and patient. D. Creative and confident.
C
Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated, but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a real-world setting such as a live concert.
In her study published in PLOS ONE, she tested how well a group of 90 healthy adults, ranging in age from 18 to 86, were able to recognize familiar and unfamiliar musical themes at a live concert. The study focused on three music pieces: Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart, which most participants were familiar with, and two experimental pieces. One of these was tonal and easy to listen to; the other was more atonal(无调的) and didn't follow the typical melodic(旋律的) standards of Western classical music. A short melodic phrase from each of the three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they recognized that theme in the piece.
The melodic phrase from the Eine kleine Nachtmusik was equally well recognized across all ages, with no toss of recognition as age increased. All participants were less confident in recognizing the theme in the unfamiliar tonal piece, and even less confident with the unfamiliar atonal piece. This patter, too, did not vary with age.
Steffen Herff, a cognitive(认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to age- related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in memory.“We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit like an important stamp," he says.
The study collected limited data on some participants’ cognitive health, and so didn’t provide detailed insights into how cognitive disorders affect memory recall. But it revealed the great interest in using music as a memory aid for other information in individuals with neurogenerative conditions such as dementia(痴呆).
28. What can be inferred from previous research
A. Age increase affects musical memory. B. Music recall in real life proves challenging.
C. Ageing influences memory in every respect. D. Established knowledge benefits recognition.
29.What should participants do in Sarah Sauvé's experiment
A. Compare the rhythms. B. Identify specific phrases.
C. Recognize the composers. D. Memorize complex themes.
30.Why does Steffen Herff mention “an important stamp” in paragraph 4
A. To stress the positive impact of music. B. To explain the reason for cognitive decline.
C. To illustrate the role of emotions in memory. D. To emphasize the emotions’ resistance to age.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Masic: A Powerful Memory Aid B. Musical Memory: Free from Ageing
C. Familiarity: Key to Ageless Memory D. Memory and Emotion: Cognitive Twins
D
In a grassland in Cambridge, Ont., a low hum fills the air. It's a warm spring day and eastern bumblebee(大黄蜂) queens are busy with pollination(授粉). But take a closer look and you'll notice some of them are wearing...backpacks
These backpacks are actually a tool used by post-doctoral fellow Amanda Liczner of the University of Guelph to learn more about the bees’ movement, behaviour and habitat choices. Instead of GPS collars normally used for tracking larger species, Liczner's team attached tiny trackers to the queens' backs. Once attached, these tiny trackers transmit radio signals to a collection of 44 radio towers which process the signals to record precise whereabouts. Liczner can then download the data from the towers to figure out how the bees are spending their time.
While we do know bumblebees need flowers, as Liczner will tell you, there's a lot we still don't know about bumblebees, especially about how pesticides(杀虫剂) affect bees' movement. This lack of information, says Liczner, makes it tricky to provide specific conservation recommendations.
So far, the team has made some interesting discoveries. In experiments focused on how different pesticides affect bee movement, the scientists learned that while using newer classes of pesticides may not kill bumblebees, "we have found that they're flying in significantly odd ways,” says Liczner. For example, pesticide-treated late-season queens, which would usually be resting and building up energy reserves for the winter, were moving "all over the place," potentially burning up the fat stores they need to survive the winter.
What’s more, 30% of flights are at night. That "blows everyone's mind," says Liczner. “And it’s at all times of night!" This is important and potentially perturbing information, she says, because some regulations allow farmers to use pesticides between dusk and dawn, when bees were previously thought to be inactive.
This late summer, Liczner and her team were able to follow the backpacked queens to the spots where they dug into the ground to spend the winter. When the queens emerge, unfolding their wings in the spring sunshine, Liczner hopes to be there to learn more from this understudied species.
32. What is the function of “backpacks” on bumblebee queens
A. To film bees' habitats. B. To reveal bees’ locations.
C. To attach GPS collars to bees. D. To receive signals from towers.
33. How do pesticides impact bumblebees
A. They disrupt bees’ flight patterns. B. They decrease bees' night activity.
C. They confuse bees’ perception of seasons. D. They limit bees' energy storage for winter.
34. What does the underlined word “perturbing” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Confusing. B. Exciting. C. Alarming. D. Comforting.
35.What might Liczner’s study help in the future
A. Develop effective pesticides. B. Discover unexplored species,
C. Promote agricultural policies. D. Conduct tailored preservation.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
As a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic(地道的). __36__
People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity. __37__ There home cooking is often the last way to show their identity, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was accused of trying to take advantage of positive feelings about Jamaica. His meal product had a Jamaican name, but was unlike genuine Jamaican cooking.
However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity. ___38___ It's common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting—restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures.
__39__ while large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries—China, India, Italy, Mexico and more—these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries. For instance, regional specialties in Mexico are assumed quite different from what people eat in America. But in essence, they can both be authentic examples of Mexican food.
A more controversial view of authenticity was stated by American Chef Andrew Zimmern, who claimed that he could present Chinese dishes in a more authentic way than existing restaurants. Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern. ___40___ So, while food and identity are closely linked, it makes sense to give a second thought about the whole idea of authenticity.
A. But is this a good thing
B. It's a symbol of cultural diversity,
C. That means adaptation is unavoidable.
D. They can generate severe consequences.
E. And unreasonable expectations are the core.
F. It's particularly true for migrant communities.
G. Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity.

While we were walking, a strange sound __45__ our attention—a rhythmic clinking breaking the ___46___ of the street. Around the corner rose a ___47___ workshop. Inside, common tools shone with uncommon beauty. A heavy silence filled the air as time slowed down, allowing me the space to __48___ every little detail.
Absorbed in his work, the welder didn't __49__ an eye at us. At that moment, all that was __50___ was his short hair and a figure __51__by years of manual(体力的) work. His hands ___52__ worked the metal as if he were a magician creating sparks and flames.
As the man continued welding, I felt a sudden feeling of__53___for his peace and satisfaction. I longed for the ___54___are embodied(体现).

Today I turn eight, so whatever I say goes.
Grandma was gardening when we pulled up for the party. I ran straight to her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!" She squeezed me into a hug, whispering about my favorite chocolate-strawberry cake she had made, and her intention to persuade my parents to let me play video games, which hadn't happened since I was six. Then, I noticed Grandpa, who, contrary to my grandma, always sits outside and complains that the air isn't as fresh as it is in the mountains where he used to go hiking for days when he was young, and that kids have no respect, claiming that all they do is play video games. Now on the porch sat Grandpa, like a sack of wrinkled onions, asleep in a rocking chair, snoring like thunder, on his only grandson's birthday!
“Wake up, sleepyhead!" I mounted the porch steps, only to be greeted by more snores. "Fine," I groaned, "we'll have the cake without you!” It was Grandma's request to wait ten more minutes that brought me to tears. An angry hurricane was spinning up inside me, and I exploded. My fists clenched, I had been sobbing and screaming until Dad held my shoulder firmly. Mom touched my hair, instructing me to take a deep breath and relax.
Finally, Grandpa was awake, coughing, snorting, and squinting right at me like an angry goat. "Boy,” he spoke in a rough, low voice, "come here." He was struggling to his feet when Grandma hurried over with his walker, which Grandpa usually pushes at about 0.3 miles per hour. “You and I,” said Grandpa, "are going on a walk." “NO!" I shouted. "You can't tell me what to do!” But Grandpa kept looking at me with that scary look on his face. Not even Grandma came to my rescue. Unwilling as I was, I gave in and dragged myself forward. Then we were inching down the path into the garden. I expected him to lecture me-about ceasing to be a spoiled child and respecting my elders, blah, blah, blah. Instead, he asked in a soft voice whether my parents were very busy. I was too confused to respond.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右:

第二节:(满分25分)
“Help me sit there ", he demanded, pointing to a bench. Considering that I can do whatever on my birthday, I was about to tum him down when his shaking legs and bent knees forced me to grip his arms and lower him down nice and slow. “Thank you!" he said, breathing hard like he had climbed a hill. Then he talked about his youth and his adventures in the mountains. I listened intently and asked good questions, realizing that there was more to him than just the grumpy old man I had seen earlier.
It hit me how selfish I was. I had been so focused on my own desires and frustrations that I had failed to see Grandpa as a person with his own stories and struggles. Thinking of all the attempts he had made to connect with me, I realized how impatient and disrespectful I was. It was then that I resolved to be more understanding and patient. When we returned to the party for the cake, I apologized to Grandpa and was responded with a big hug of forgiveness. In cheers of “happy birthday,” I shed tears again, but it somewhat felt more like my birthday than ever.

In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America's beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut(首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. Critics quickly spoke out, calling her early performance a disappointment for the No. 1 overall pick.
But the struggles didn't last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever's fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year's total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark's leadership that powered the team's comeback. Against Seattle, Clark finished with 23 points, five rebounds and nine assists, but it's her confidence that leaps out. The former Hawkeye has regained not just her shot, but her charisma(魅力) and control. On the court, almost all of the action is again flowing through her as she creates opportunities for others. Her vision—her ability to find teammates moving quickly up the court—remains impressively precise.
By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women's basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark's play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. Though Paris gold was still won by the U.S., I agree with Staley: a chance to lift the sport was missed. Oh well. Clark will use the rejection for fuel, and Los Angeles 2028 awaits her.
Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark's comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league's ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory—Clark is ready for even greater success.
24. What caused Clark’s poor performance at the start of her WNBA career
A. A stronger opponent. B. Pressure from critics.
C. A shift of environment. D. Her decline in fitness.
25. What was the key to the Fever's win over the Storm
A. Clark's competence in leading. B. Clark's adjustments in strategy.
C. Fever's enhancement in teamwork. D. Storm’s turnaround in performance.
26. What is Staley's attitude to Clark
A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Unconcerned. D. Supportive.
27. Which of the following words best describe Clark
A. Adaptable and determined. B. Considerate and resourceful.
C. Talented and patient. D. Creative and confident.
C
Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated, but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a real-world setting such as a live concert.
In her study published in PLOS ONE, she tested how well a group of 90 healthy adults, ranging in age from 18 to 86, were able to recognize familiar and unfamiliar musical themes at a live concert. The study focused on three music pieces: Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart, which most participants were familiar with, and two experimental pieces. One of these was tonal and easy to listen to; the other was more atonal(无调的) and didn't follow the typical melodic(旋律的) standards of Western classical music. A short melodic phrase from each of the three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they recognized that theme in the piece.
The melodic phrase from the Eine kleine Nachtmusik was equally well recognized across all ages, with no toss of recognition as age increased. All participants were less confident in recognizing the theme in the unfamiliar tonal piece, and even less confident with the unfamiliar atonal piece. This patter, too, did not vary with age.
Steffen Herff, a cognitive(认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to age- related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in memory.“We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit like an important stamp," he says.
The study collected limited data on some participants’ cognitive health, and so didn’t provide detailed insights into how cognitive disorders affect memory recall. But it revealed the great interest in using music as a memory aid for other information in individuals with neurogenerative conditions such as dementia(痴呆).
28. What can be inferred from previous research
A. Age increase affects musical memory. B. Music recall in real life proves challenging.
C. Ageing influences memory in every respect. D. Established knowledge benefits recognition.
29.What should participants do in Sarah Sauvé's experiment
A. Compare the rhythms. B. Identify specific phrases.
C. Recognize the composers. D. Memorize complex themes.
30.Why does Steffen Herff mention “an important stamp” in paragraph 4
A. To stress the positive impact of music. B. To explain the reason for cognitive decline.
C. To illustrate the role of emotions in memory. D. To emphasize the emotions’ resistance to age.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Masic: A Powerful Memory Aid B. Musical Memory: Free from Ageing
C. Familiarity: Key to Ageless Memory D. Memory and Emotion: Cognitive Twins
D
In a grassland in Cambridge, Ont., a low hum fills the air. It's a warm spring day and eastern bumblebee(大黄蜂) queens are busy with pollination(授粉). But take a closer look and you'll notice some of them are wearing...backpacks
These backpacks are actually a tool used by post-doctoral fellow Amanda Liczner of the University of Guelph to learn more about the bees’ movement, behaviour and habitat choices. Instead of GPS collars normally used for tracking larger species, Liczner's team attached tiny trackers to the queens' backs. Once attached, these tiny trackers transmit radio signals to a collection of 44 radio towers which process the signals to record precise whereabouts. Liczner can then download the data from the towers to figure out how the bees are spending their time.
While we do know bumblebees need flowers, as Liczner will tell you, there's a lot we still don't know about bumblebees, especially about how pesticides(杀虫剂) affect bees' movement. This lack of information, says Liczner, makes it tricky to provide specific conservation recommendations.
So far, the team has made some interesting discoveries. In experiments focused on how different pesticides affect bee movement, the scientists learned that while using newer classes of pesticides may not kill bumblebees, "we have found that they're flying in significantly odd ways,” says Liczner. For example, pesticide-treated late-season queens, which would usually be resting and building up energy reserves for the winter, were moving "all over the place," potentially burning up the fat stores they need to survive the winter.
What’s more, 30% of flights are at night. That "blows everyone's mind," says Liczner. “And it’s at all times of night!" This is important and potentially perturbing information, she says, because some regulations allow farmers to use pesticides between dusk and dawn, when bees were previously thought to be inactive.
This late summer, Liczner and her team were able to follow the backpacked queens to the spots where they dug into the ground to spend the winter. When the queens emerge, unfolding their wings in the spring sunshine, Liczner hopes to be there to learn more from this understudied species.
32. What is the function of “backpacks” on bumblebee queens
A. To film bees' habitats. B. To reveal bees’ locations.
C. To attach GPS collars to bees. D. To receive signals from towers.
33. How do pesticides impact bumblebees
A. They disrupt bees’ flight patterns. B. They decrease bees' night activity.
C. They confuse bees’ perception of seasons. D. They limit bees' energy storage for winter.
34. What does the underlined word “perturbing” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Confusing. B. Exciting. C. Alarming. D. Comforting.
35.What might Liczner’s study help in the future
A. Develop effective pesticides. B. Discover unexplored species,
C. Promote agricultural policies. D. Conduct tailored preservation.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
As a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic(地道的). __36__
People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity. __37__ There home cooking is often the last way to show their identity, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was accused of trying to take advantage of positive feelings about Jamaica. His meal product had a Jamaican name, but was unlike genuine Jamaican cooking.
However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity. ___38___ It's common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting—restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures.
__39__ while large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries—China, India, Italy, Mexico and more—these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries. For instance, regional specialties in Mexico are assumed quite different from what people eat in America. But in essence, they can both be authentic examples of Mexican food.
A more controversial view of authenticity was stated by American Chef Andrew Zimmern, who claimed that he could present Chinese dishes in a more authentic way than existing restaurants. Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern. ___40___ So, while food and identity are closely linked, it makes sense to give a second thought about the whole idea of authenticity.
A. But is this a good thing
B. It's a symbol of cultural diversity,
C. That means adaptation is unavoidable.
D. They can generate severe consequences.
E. And unreasonable expectations are the core.
F. It's particularly true for migrant communities.
G. Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity.

Inside, common tools shone with uncommon beauty. A heavy silence filled the air as time slowed down, allowing me the space to __48___ every little detail.

Today I turn eight, so whatever I say goes.
Grandma was gardening when we pulled up for the party. I ran straight to her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!" She squeezed me into a hug, whispering about my favorite chocolate-strawberry cake she had made, and her intention to persuade my parents to let me play video games, which hadn't happened since I was six. Then, I noticed Grandpa, who, contrary to my grandma, always sits outside and complains that the air isn't as fresh as it is in the mountains where he used to go hiking for days when he was young, and that kids have no respect, claiming that all they do is play video games. Now on the porch sat Grandpa, like a sack of wrinkled onions, asleep in a rocking chair, snoring like thunder, on his only grandson's birthday!
“Wake up, sleepyhead!" I mounted the porch steps, only to be greeted by more snores. "Fine," I groaned, "we'll have the cake without you!” It was Grandma's request to wait ten more minutes that brought me to tears. An angry hurricane was spinning up inside me, and I exploded. My fists clenched, I had been sobbing and screaming until Dad held my shoulder firmly. Mom touched my hair, instructing me to take a deep breath and relax.
Finally, Grandpa was awake, coughing, snorting, and squinting right at me like an angry goat. "Boy,” he spoke in a rough, low voice, "come here." He was struggling to his feet when Grandma hurried over with his walker, which Grandpa usually pushes at about 0.3 miles per hour. “You and I,” said Grandpa, "are going on a walk." “NO!" I shouted. "You can't tell me what to do!” But Grandpa kept looking at me with that scary look on his face. Not even Grandma came to my rescue. Unwilling as I was, I gave in and dragged myself forward. Then we were inching down the path into the garden. I expected him to lecture me-about ceasing to be a spoiled child and respecting my elders, blah, blah, blah. Instead, he asked in a soft voice whether my parents were very busy. I was too confused to respond.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右:
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: “Help me sit there ", he demanded, pointing to a bench.

“Help me sit there ", he demanded, pointing to a bench. Considering that I can do whatever on my birthday, I was about to tum him down when his shaking legs and bent knees forced me to grip his arms and lower him down nice and slow. “Thank you!" he said, breathing hard like he had climbed a hill. Then he talked about his youth and his adventures in the mountains. I listened intently and asked good questions, realizing that there was more to him than just the grumpy old man I had seen earlier.
It hit me how selfish I was. I had been so focused on my own desires and frustrations that I had failed to see Grandpa as a person with his own stories and struggles. Thinking of all the attempts he had made to connect with me, I realized how impatient and disrespectful I was. It was then that I resolved to be more understanding and patient. When we returned to the party for the cake, I apologized to Grandpa and was responded with a big hug of forgiveness. In cheers of “happy birthday,” I shed tears again, but it somewhat felt more like my birthday than ever.
