I first encountered the classics at 19, when I studiedEnglish literature at university. But a lack of life
experience, combined with exams, essay deadlines and an obsession (痴迷) with good grades, left me little
time to truly concentrate on them —— Middlemarch, ThePicture of Dorian Gray, Pride and Prejudice,
Madame Bovary etc. I loved these books, yet I never got the chance to deeply engage with them.
Some 40 years later, as an editor, it's now my job to figure out what makes a book tick or more
often,what it needs to make it tick. So, when a coworker suggested we deconstruct classics to find their
“secret to lasting appeal”, I was intrigued. I decided to reread Middlemarch, which I had loved before but
never fully grasped. I did hesitate a bit, though; could I, with my attention constantly distracted by
technology,handle its 900 pages of tiny print
Not wanting to hold back entirely, I tried the audiobook instead. The audio's vivid delivery certainly
drew me in, but what truly took me aback was the new understanding that came with age. Themes that felt
distant at 19 came into sharp focus at 60: ideas of marriage, ambition, and unmet expectations that had
flown over my younger head now echoed (回响) deeply within me. I also noticed striking similarities in
other classic characters; Emma's desire for an“ideal life” in Madame Bovary mirrors the social comparison
we see on social media today, and Dorian Gray's obsession with youth in The Picture of Dorian Gray
reflects our selfie-obsessed culture.
Then came the real work: taking them apart to see why they' re classics. Some were easy to
analyse,others tricky, but we gave them the attention they deserved —— more than I ever could at 19.
What struck me most was that classics last not for their age, but for capturing universal human truths;
desires, fears,and hopes that never fade. Rereading them isn't just about revisiting old tales; it reconnects us
to our unchanging human nature, enriches our understanding of time, and grows with us as we do.
24. What does the author imply about the classics in paragraph 1
A. They were mainly for academic success. B. They enriched the author's experience.
C. They proved too difficult for the author. D. They failed to obtain full appreciation.
25. What does the underlined word“intrigued” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Hesitant. B. Interested. C. Refreshed. D. Puzzled.
26. Why does the author mention Emma and Dorian Gray
A. To show classics' modern relevance. B. To criticize current social problems.
C. To present impressive analytical skills. D. To highlight their lasting popularity.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Busy Youth, Fading Truth B. Modern Whisper of Audiobooks C. Changing Trend, Unchanging Insight D. Time's Echo of Literary Classics
C
It is widely acknowledged that crows(乌鸦)are highly intelligent with cognitive abilities similar to
those of 5- to 7- year- old children. Past research has shown that they can count to four and distinguish
human voices and faces, and some species can even create tools for future use. Lately, a special study has
expanded this list further,revealing that crows can recognize basic geometric features, such as side lengths,
parallel lines, and right angles, and shapes like stars, crescents, squares, and irregular four- sided figures.
With the purpose of testing the crows' geometric skills, scientists showed two crows six shapes on a
digital screen and trained them to peck(啄 ) at the outlier—— the shape that looked different from the
rest.When the birds chose correctly, they were rewarded with a tasty snack. At first, the researchers made
the outlier obvious, such as one flower among five crescents. As the birds got used to the task, the shapes
became more similar including squares and irregular four- sided figures. Despite the increasing
difficulty,the crows continued to identify the outlier correctly.
The shape recognition ability of crows remains a topic of interest for researchers. They suspect this
ability may help them with navigation as they fly around. The birds may have also developed this ability to
help them search for food or identify other individual crows—— including potential mates—— based on
their facial features.“All these abilities, at the end of the day, from a biological point of view, have evolved
because they provide a survival advantage or a reproductive advantage,” says the study senior
authorAndreas Nieder, a neurophysiologist at the University of Tübingen in Germany.
In the future, researchers hope to explore which areas of the birds' brains are responsible for their
exceptional ability in geometry. Birds don't have a cerebral cortex(大脑皮层)—— at least, not in the same
way that humans do. But for us, that part of the brain is responsible for thinking and other complex
functions. Crows still have these abilities, so the researchers assume there must be something else going on
inside their heads.“Obviously, evolution found two different ways of giving rise to behaviorally flexible
animals,” Nieder says.
28. What does the recent study reveal about crows A. They can draw simple figures with tools. B. They can tell basic geometric shapes apart. C. They can do pretty easy math calculations. D. They can recognize human voices and faces.
29. How did the researchers increase the difficulty of the shape- recognition task
A. By shortening the time to respond. B. By presenting more familiar shapes.
C. By showing figures with different colors. D. By enhancing the similarity among shapes.
30. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The role of crows' geometric potential in navigation.
B. Reasons for crows to evolve shape identification abilities. C. The various survival benefits of crows' cognitive talents.
D. Advantages of crows' food-searching skills over other birds. 31. What is the follow-up step for future study
A. Examining crows' brain areas related to geometric skills. B. Comparing the cerebral cortex of humans and crows. C. Exploring other complex functions of crows' brains.
D. Studying the causes of crows’ flexible behaviors.
D
A few weeks ago, an article by Nathan Heller in The NeiYorker indicated“the end of the English major”
, examining the trend of declining English department nationwide and the cultural factors that lead students
away from spending four years with the passion fcDickens and Shakespeare. Like every other
humanities-lover on a college campus that day, I was swep away in the mass panic. My major was,
according to a reputable English-major-loved publication, dead.
Heller focused on Arizona State University (ASU) and Harvard University, large“indicators”(higher
education. I initially thought he ignored small liberal arts(文科) colleges, assuming English major were safe
at Allegheny College, where students supposedly came for the love of learning, not for middl management
when they graduate. But data ruined this hope: Allegheny had 84 English majors (9% of al majors) in the
spring semester of 2003, but just 20 (2.5%) now —— a 72% drop in about 20 years matching the national
trend.
Allegheny's website fuels optimism, asking, “Why put your mind to just one thing ” and definin itself
as a“safe place of learning”, unlike ASU, which sees degrees as career stepping stones, or Harvard where,
according to Heller, even an“unusual major” finds work. Yet campus reality in Allegheny differsStudents
get locked into majors early, “mind over major” loses to closed-off departments, and Englis majors fear
unemployment, thinking they wasted time and money.
We need to reject the campus“disease”, Heller noted —— pressuring students to choose“safeguard
paths and dismissing humanities as“hobby-based”. The well-known author Kurt Vonnegut reminded u that
the arts may not be the best way to“make a living” but“make life more bearable” and“make soul grow”. Not
everybody can or should pursue a degree in chemistry, but it is increasingly clear to me tha everybody
would benefit from spending 20 credit hours reading, thinking about and discussing literature.While English
majors may decline, their lessons live on. As the novelist Jonathan Lethem wrote, “Time change and men
adapt.” Between“too bad” and“worst”, we can do better.
32. What phenomenon did Heller point out about English literature
A. Students' fading love for it. B. Its limited research visions.
C. Students’ confusion about it. D. Its declining literary works.
33. Why did the author's hope for Allegheny College fade
A. It closed most liberal arts majors. B. It valued career training more.
C. It admitted fewer English majors. D. It cared less about students’ likes.
34. What can be inferred from Allegheny's website
A. It tried to learn from Harvard. B. It didn't match its real situation.
C. It failed to ensure students' safety. D. It didn't promote critical thinking.
35. What does the author advocate in the last paragraph
A. Students should plan a unique life journey. B. Schools must make English more inviting. C. Students need to stick to their own purposes. D. Schools ought to look beyond practical values. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)

Move House Without the Waste
If you' ve got a house move coming up, then you' ll know that it can be a stressful experience. With
everything going on, reducing the environmental impact of moving may not be high on your list of
priorities.36 . Thankfully, there are a few clever ways to green your move and save some
money.
Firstly, it's always best to declutter (清理) before you even start thinking about packing. Getting rid of
stuff you don't need means you need fewer boxes and fewer packaging materials. 37 ,
saving money and reducing pollution.
Once you' ve decluttered, you can move on to the packing stage. Many removal companies supply their
own brand-new boxes at an additional cost. To save resources (and a bit of cash), it's best to foster (培养) a
good relationship with local shops. 38 . However, you can ask the staff when the delivery
day is and then pop in that day to collect some cardboard boxes before they are sent for recycling.
39 — using suitcases instead of the boxes. Ask your friends and family if you can borrow some.
Laundry bags are also an excellent option. You can generally fit a lot in them and they are much easier to
carry than boxes.
And finally, you can't move your goods with cardboard boxes alone. Delicate items need some form of
protection during the move. 40 . If you find yourself short of recycled materials, you can
also use clean towels and clothes to wrap breakables in. This is also a clever space-saving technique!
A. They have a good supply of boxes
B. Yet moving can be quite a wasteful process
C. It may also mean you need a smaller removal truck
D. Moreover, get creative with items you are clearing out
E. Most of them won't store cardboard boxes as they' re a fire risk F. You can keep old newspapers or air-filled packaging beforehand
G. Alternatively, you can get crafty with the items you have around you 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 30 分) 第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

67. 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。
The bell above the bakery door sounded, marking the end of another long day. Six-year-old Ana watched her
mother, Elena, wipe flour-dusted hands on her apron (围裙)—the same faded blue one she wore every day. Her
mother’s dress, a simple grey shift washed thin at the elbows, was as constant as the sunrise.
Tomorrow was Mama’s birthday. A secret, heavy with love, sat in Ana’s chest. Mama never bought clothes for
herself. Her gifts were the warm bread on the table, the quiet mending of Ana’s socks, and the gentle song she
hummed while making bread. Ana’s biggest wish was to wrap her love in something beautiful: a new dress, the color
of the sky just after dawn.
But coins were for flour and eggs, not for dreams. As Elena locked the door, an idea started to form and grow in
Ana’s mind. She would grow her gift, like the seeds in the window box.
The next morning, Ana became a tiny, determined entrepreneur. She gathered fallen flowers from the geraniums
(天竺葵) by the step, threading them onto strings to make “necklaces”. She drew careful pictures of their bakery,
selling them to kindly neighbors for a penny. She even offered to carefully dust old Mr. Henderson’s collection of tin
soldier statues, her small face serious with effort. Her piggy bank began to whisper with a few lonely coins.
Days passed. Her piggy bank grew heavier, but not heavy enough. On the eve of the birthday, Ana poured the
coins onto her blanket. It wasn’t enough for a dress, not even a scarf. Downstairs, she found her mother at the kitchen
table, mending that same grey dress by lamplight. The sight was a quiet ache. “Mama,” Ana whispered, the coins held
firmly in her small fist. “I wanted to buy you a blue dress for tomorrow. But I only have this.”

How is everything going I'm excited to share that I'm organizing a short play based on one of China's Four
Great Classical Novels — Journey to the West. The story follows the Monkey King's adventure, full of courage and
wisdom, and we’re adapting it with a creative twist.
I sincerely invite you to take part in the performance! You could play a character like a foreign monk joining the
journey. It would be a fun cultural exchange. Let me know if you're interested!
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,

【67 题答案】
Ana’s voice trembled (颤抖) as she opened her hand. The coins, polished by her tiny palms, gleamed under the
lamplight. Elena’s eyes softened, and a gentle smile spread across her face. She reached out, cupping Ana’s face in
her flour-dusted hands. “Sweetheart, this is the most precious gift I’ve ever received. But let’s think of something else
we can do together to celebrate my birthday.” Ana looked at her mother, confusion and disappointment in her eyes,
but she nodded slowly.
“Oh, could you buy some multi-color threads for me ” Elena asked. Ana’s eyes lit up with curiosity. The next
day, Ana rushed to the store with the coins and bought the threads. Elena then taught Ana how to embroider. Together,
they worked on the grey dress, adding colorful patterns of flowers and stars. When it was done, the dress was a
beautiful piece of art. Elena put it on, and Ana saw that her mother looked more radiant than ever. This simple act of
creating together had made the birthday truly special.
