Yang Chen-Ning, a world-renowned physicist and Nobel Prize winner, passed away in Beijing at the age of 103. Tsinghua University, where he was a professor, described him as “immortal” in an obituary (讣告).
Born in Hefei, Anhui province, in 1922, Yang moved with his family to Tsinghua in 1929. He earned his master’s degree from Tsinghua University before going to the United States for further studies in 1945. There, he received his PhD from the University of Chicago in 1948 and remained for postdoctoral work. In 1966, he was appointed as the Albert Einstein Professor of Physics at the State University of New York, working there until 1999. From 1997, he served as the honorary director of the newly established Center for Advanced Study at Tsinghua University and became a Tsinghua professor in 1999.
Yang’s most celebrated achievement completed with his colleague Tsung-dao Lee, was the theory of parity non-conservation (宇称不守恒) in weak interactions. This groundbreaking work earned them the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957, making Yang one of the first Chinese Nobel laureates (获奖者). He was often ranked alongside Albert Einstein as one of the 20th century’s greatest physicists. Another of his major contributions, the “Yang-Mills Theory” developed with Robert Mills, is considered a cornerstone of modern physics.
Despite his international career, Yang always maintained a deep connection to his homeland. His first visit to China in 1971 was a pioneering act that encouraged many other overseas Chinese scholars to return. He actively advised the Chinese government on scientific policy, raised funds to support Chinese scholars studying abroad, and dedicated his efforts to building academic bridges between China and the world.
In his later years, Yang returned to Tsinghua University. He devoted himself entirely to the development of the Institute for Advanced Study and the cultivation of scientific talent. He worked tirelessly to advance physics education and research in China, leaving a lasting impact on the country’s higher education and scientific progress.
His life is remembered as an immortal legend—a century-long journey of exploring the unknown with a heart devoted to his nation.

B. It laid the foundation for the “Yang-Mills Theory”.
C. It inspired many Chinese academics abroad to come back.
D. It made him the honorary director of a newly founded center.

B. He earned the Nobel Prize for his “Yang-Mills Theory”.
C. He dedicated his later years to educating competent intellectuals.

Yesterday, my 6-year-old son taught me a valuable lesson that stayed with me for hours. It might sound surprising, but he taught me a powerful lesson.
A few weeks ago, I had to travel for work, and I couldn’t spend much time with my son. Even though he is a bit stubborn (固执的), he’s growing up fast. That’s when the lesson happened. While I was eating dinner, he was in the bath, and suddenly he started crying. I asked him what happened, and he said, “Shampoo (洗发水) got in my eyes.”
I got really worried and rushed into the bathroom. I tried to help by splashing (泼) water on his eyes, but things got worse when he rubbed his eyes with his soapy hands. I was nervous, telling him not to use his hands.
Out of the blue, he said, “Calm down! Dad.” It amazed me. I realized I was making things worse. I stopped splashing water, washed his hands, and calmly told him to use his hands to clean his eyes while blinking (眨眼). It worked, and he felt better.
I’m not sure where he learned to stay calm, maybe from me or somewhere else. But the bigger lesson is that when we face problems, acting emotionally and quickly might not be best. Staying calm and thinking about the right solution is better.
In today’s tough job market with many people losing their jobs, it’s easy to feel worried. My son’s lesson reminded me that staying calm and taking a moment to relax can help us face challenges with a clear mind, more energy, and better solutions.
8. What happened to the author’s son yesterday
A. He argued with his dad. B. He fell in the bathroom.
C. He got angry due to the meal. D. He felt something in his eyes.
9. Why did the author worsen the situation at first
A. He missed an important step. B. He told his son to keep quiet.
C. His hands were covered with soap. D. His son disagreed with his advice.
10. How can we solve problems according to the author
A. By putting forward many ideas. B. By getting our thoughts straight.
C. By turning to friends for assistance. D. By finding out causes behind them.
11. What does the author’s experience show
A. Knowledge is power. B. Still waters run deep.
C. Parenting is learning. D. Actions speak louder.
D
People make a choice to volunteer for their community, but making it a graduation requirement takes away the meaning of volunteerism. Many states require students to perform a set number of volunteer hours to graduate. With recent talks about implementing (实施) this in Virginia City Public Schools, a critical question arises: if volunteering is mandatory (强制性的), is it truly volunteering
Required or not, volunteering helps other people who are in need and helps the community as a whole. Requiring students to volunteer will increase the number of people who serve their community, but people volunteer out of the kindness of their hearts. They should not be forced to volunteer by someone else. “When students are told what to do or think, they lose drive to do it because their beliefs are ignored,” according to Brillianto’s article “Why Volunteering Should Not Be a Requirement.”
Another problem with forced volunteerism is that not all students have transportation. “I don’t think it should be required to graduate. I think it should be a choice like it already is, because some people just don’t have the ability or transportation to do that,” said sophomore Leila Alpaugh.
“Quality over quantity” also comes into play when it comes to volunteering. If forced to volunteer, some students who don’t care about the cause will weaken the passion of others who do, and it can end up causing problems for the organization and others who volunteer there.
So, instead of making volunteering a requirement, schools should encourage students to talk to a guidance counselor (辅导员) about current service projects they could take part in.
12. What makes volunteering less meaningful
A. Limited service choices. B. Linking it to graduation.
C. Boring volunteer classes. D. Recording service hours.
13. What does the author imply in paragraph 2
A. Forced volunteering helps few people. B. Forced volunteering becomes common.
C. Volunteers’ real thoughts matter. D. Schools’ rules have bad effects.
14. What does the author show by mentioning “transportation”
A. The importance of enough choices. B. The challenge in serving strangers.
C. The trouble in reaching an agreement. D. The unfairness of forced volunteering.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward forced volunteering
A. Indifferent. B. Objective. C. Careful. D. Critical.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分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。
Smile: It Is Good For You
Research reveals that showing you’re happy can enhance both physical and mental health. And here is why.
Smiling is a stress reliever. A University of Kansas study found that participants who were asked to smile during stressful tasks had lower heart rates during stress recovery. So it seems even forcing yourself to look happy helps to manage tricky situations.
Smiling may lower blood pressure. The benefits of smile go beyond stress reduction. _____16_____ Another research has shown that blood pressure doesn’t rise when people are exposed to humour.
Smiling boosts immunity. A smile releases certain hormones in the brain, including serotonin, which is associated with an improvement in immune function. Depression, meanwhile, can weaken your immune system. _____17_____
A smile can reduce your pain. Being amused also prompts the release of endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. ____18____ In one study, participants who smiled while being injected reported 40 percent less pain.
_____19_____ It seems smiling really can boost your mood, rather than simply being a response to feeling happy. A 2022 study of 3,878 participants in 19 countries found people’s happiness rating was higher when they smiled.
Of course, smiling endears you to others and helps you to connect with them. _____20_____ Give yourself cues to remind you to smile — when you see someone laughing or you’re making a cup of tea — or put a note on your phone as a reminder. Think of something pleasurable, such as a favourite person, place or memory when you smile. You will harvest the rewards of your continuous efforts.
A. It not only releases endorphins but also boosts your immune system.
B. It is also likely to have a knock-on effect on blood pressure.
C. So, it makes sense to smile more if you want to stay well.
D. If you practise enough, it’ll become second nature.
E. Those who have the broadest smile live longer.
F. Endorphins are the body’s natural painkillers.
G. Looking happy encourages positivity.

It ____30____ me then: what feels ____31____ in life is actually a special right only the fortunate enjoy. But we ____32____ see these privileges until they’re taken from us.
I recognized life’s ____33____ nature while signing “informed consent (知情同意)” forms. At that moment, I learnt all we want is to live for those waiting at home. To hug our children and look after families is a ____34____ to be grateful for. Five days later, I came home with lifelong scars and ____35____.

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。
Lily was a high school student who loved comparing herself with others. She always cared about the latest clothes, expensive phones, and designer bags. Whenever someone showed off a new item, she would feel jealous (嫉妒的) and want to buy something better. Her parents often told her, “True value isn’t in what you own,” but she never listened.
One day, Lily noticed a girl from another class whose name was Coco. Coco’s family was wealthy, but she always wore simple clothes and carried an old schoolbag. Unlike Lily, Coco never joined the students’ discussions about brands or prices. Instead, she spent her time helping classmates with math problems or volunteering in the school library. Her grades were always at the top of the class, and everyone respected (尊重) her.
Lily couldn’t understand why Coco didn’t care about material things. One afternoon, Lily saw Coco sitting alone under a tree, reading a book. She decided to talk to her. “Why don’t you buy nicer things ” Lily asked. “Your family has enough money.” Coco looked up with a smile. “I’d rather spend money on things that matter,” she said. “Like helping others or buying books.”
That night, Lily thought about Coco’s words. She realized that she had been looking for things that didn’t bring real happiness. The next day, she made a decision: she would stop comparing herself with others and start focusing on what was truly meaningful.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Yesterday, my 6-year-old son taught me a valuable lesson that stayed with me for hours. It might sound surprising, but he taught me a powerful lesson.
A few weeks ago, I had to travel for work, and I couldn’t spend much time with my son. Even though he is a bit stubborn (固执的), he’s growing up fast. That’s when the lesson happened. While I was eating dinner, he was in the bath, and suddenly he started crying. I asked him what happened, and he said, “Shampoo (洗发水) got in my eyes.”
I got really worried and rushed into the bathroom. I tried to help by splashing (泼) water on his eyes, but things got worse when he rubbed his eyes with his soapy hands. I was nervous, telling him not to use his hands.
Out of the blue, he said, “Calm down! Dad.” It amazed me. I realized I was making things worse. I stopped splashing water, washed his hands, and calmly told him to use his hands to clean his eyes while blinking (眨眼). It worked, and he felt better.
I’m not sure where he learned to stay calm, maybe from me or somewhere else. But the bigger lesson is that when we face problems, acting emotionally and quickly might not be best. Staying calm and thinking about the right solution is better.
In today’s tough job market with many people losing their jobs, it’s easy to feel worried. My son’s lesson reminded me that staying calm and taking a moment to relax can help us face challenges with a clear mind, more energy, and better solutions.

People make a choice to volunteer for their community, but making it a graduation requirement takes away the meaning of volunteerism. Many states require students to perform a set number of volunteer hours to graduate. With recent talks about implementing (实施) this in Virginia City Public Schools, a critical question arises: if volunteering is mandatory (强制性的), is it truly volunteering
Required or not, volunteering helps other people who are in need and helps the community as a whole. Requiring students to volunteer will increase the number of people who serve their community, but people volunteer out of the kindness of their hearts. They should not be forced to volunteer by someone else. “When students are told what to do or think, they lose drive to do it because their beliefs are ignored,” according to Brillianto’s article “Why Volunteering Should Not Be a Requirement.”
Another problem with forced volunteerism is that not all students have transportation. “I don’t think it should be required to graduate. I think it should be a choice like it already is, because some people just don’t have the ability or transportation to do that,” said sophomore Leila Alpaugh.
“Quality over quantity” also comes into play when it comes to volunteering. If forced to volunteer, some students who don’t care about the cause will weaken the passion of others who do, and it can end up causing problems for the organization and others who volunteer there.
So, instead of making volunteering a requirement, schools should encourage students to talk to a guidance counselor (辅导员) about current service projects they could take part in.
12. What makes volunteering less meaningful
A. Limited service choices. B. Linking it to graduation.
C. Boring volunteer classes. D. Recording service hours.
13. What does the author imply in paragraph 2
A. Forced volunteering helps few people. B. Forced volunteering becomes common.
C. Volunteers’ real thoughts matter. D. Schools’ rules have bad effects.
14. What does the author show by mentioning “transportation”
A. The importance of enough choices. B. The challenge in serving strangers.
C. The trouble in reaching an agreement. D. The unfairness of forced volunteering.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward forced volunteering
A. Indifferent. B. Objective. C. Careful. D. Critical.

Smile: It Is Good For You
Research reveals that showing you’re happy can enhance both physical and mental health. And here is why.
Smiling is a stress reliever. A University of Kansas study found that participants who were asked to smile during stressful tasks had lower heart rates during stress recovery. So it seems even forcing yourself to look happy helps to manage tricky situations.
Smiling may lower blood pressure. The benefits of smile go beyond stress reduction. _____16_____ Another research has shown that blood pressure doesn’t rise when people are exposed to humour.
Smiling boosts immunity. A smile releases certain hormones in the brain, including serotonin, which is associated with an improvement in immune function. Depression, meanwhile, can weaken your immune system. _____17_____
A smile can reduce your pain. Being amused also prompts the release of endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. ____18____ In one study, participants who smiled while being injected reported 40 percent less pain.
_____19_____ It seems smiling really can boost your mood, rather than simply being a response to feeling happy. A 2022 study of 3,878 participants in 19 countries found people’s happiness rating was higher when they smiled.
Of course, smiling endears you to others and helps you to connect with them. _____20_____ Give yourself cues to remind you to smile — when you see someone laughing or you’re making a cup of tea — or put a note on your phone as a reminder. Think of something pleasurable, such as a favourite person, place or memory when you smile. You will harvest the rewards of your continuous efforts.
A. It not only releases endorphins but also boosts your immune system.
B. It is also likely to have a knock-on effect on blood pressure.
C. So, it makes sense to smile more if you want to stay well.
D. If you practise enough, it’ll become second nature.

Dear Tom,
I’m Li Hua. I’m glad you’ll come to our school as an exchange student. Let me tell you something useful first.
There are some rules you should follow: wear school uniforms from Monday to Friday, don’t use phones in class, and be on time, which help our school run well. For learning Chinese, I have two tips. First, talk with classmates every day, because it’s the best way that can improve your speaking. Second, remember 5 simple words each day, like “ni hao” or “xie xie”, since what you learn little by little will add up.
I’m happy to help you if you have problems. Looking forward to seeing you!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
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。
Lily was a high school student who loved comparing herself with others. She always cared about the latest clothes, expensive phones, and designer bags. Whenever someone showed off a new item, she would feel jealous (嫉妒的) and want to buy something better. Her parents often told her, “True value isn’t in what you own,” but she never listened.
One day, Lily noticed a girl from another class whose name was Coco. Coco’s family was wealthy, but she always wore simple clothes and carried an old schoolbag. Unlike Lily, Coco never joined the students’ discussions about brands or prices. Instead, she spent her time helping classmates with math problems or volunteering in the school library. Her grades were always at the top of the class, and everyone respected (尊重) her.
Lily couldn’t understand why Coco didn’t care about material things. One afternoon, Lily saw Coco sitting alone under a tree, reading a book. She decided to talk to her. “Why don’t you buy nicer things ” Lily asked. “Your family has enough money.” Coco looked up with a smile. “I’d rather spend money on things that matter,” she said. “Like helping others or buying books.”
That night, Lily thought about Coco’s words. She realized that she had been looking for things that didn’t bring real happiness. The next day, she made a decision: she would stop comparing herself with others and start focusing on what was truly meaningful.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

The following week, Lily began to learn from Coco.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The following week, Lily began to learn from Coco. She started by organizing her own bookshelf, donating clothes she seldom wore to charity, and spending more time reading in the library. Gradually, she found joy in helping others too. When a classmate struggled with English, Lily offered to study together after school. She even joined Coco in the library volunteer team. Instead of checking social media for the latest trends, she now looked for opportunities to make a difference. Her parents noticed the change — she talked less about buying things and more about what she had learned or who she had helped. One afternoon, while walking home, Lily realized she hadn’t compared herself to anyone all week. For the first time, she felt truly content.
Months later, teachers and classmates all praised Lily. Not only had her grades improved noticeably, but she had also become one of the most kind-hearted and respected students in school. During a class meeting, her teacher mentioned Lily’s transformation as an example of “real growth.” Coco smiled at her from across the room, and Lily knew she had finally understood what her parents meant by “true value.” It wasn’t about what you had, but who you became. Lily still liked pretty things, but now she valued kindness, knowledge, and generosity far more. She had learned that happiness comes not from having more, but from being more — for yourself and for others.
