Passage 1（2025·全国一卷·高考真题）
In my ninth-grade writing class last year, I met a cowboy who saved his town, a strict father who demanded his son earn straight A’s, and a modern-day Juliet who died of heartbreak after her parents rejected the love of her young life. More than once, I found myself wondering just how my students, who’d created these people, knew their subjects so well.
But things were different for their first essay, which was about the question: “Why is writing important ” Most of the essays filled less than one page, and few contained a sentence that could be interpreted as a thesis (论点) statement. I was shocked. Then I realized that the problem was the question itself. They could have written pages on the necessity of computers, but writing, in and of itself, simply didn’t strike them as important. This would have to change.
As a new unit started, I asked everyone to write a persuasive piece on a health-related topic of their choice. This time they found the exercise much more interesting. For the next two assignments, a personal-narrative unit followed by a creative-writing workshop, I only required that the piece meet the specifications of its genre (体裁) and that it contain a thesis. The results were staggering. The students took on diverse topics and turned in stories, 10 to 20 pages each, with characters that broadened my view and touched my heart.
I walked into class believing that writing is important as a means of communication. However, my students demonstrated something more important to me. When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a yearbook full of messages about writing’s most powerful significance — the ability to connect people, to put us in another’s skin, to teach us what it means to be human.
1．Who are the people mentioned at the beginning of paragraph 1
A．Ninth graders. B．Students’ parents.
C．Modern writers. D．Fictional characters.
2．Why did the students perform poorly in writing their first essay
A．They were not given enough time. B．They had a very limited vocabulary.
C．They misunderstood the question. D．They had little interest in the topic.
3．What does the underlined word “staggering” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Mixed. B．Amazing. C．Similar. D．Disturbing.
4．What does the author’s experience show
A．Teaching is learning. B．Still waters run deep.
C．Knowledge is power. D．Practice makes perfect.
Passage 2（2025·北京·高考真题）
Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements Or will they see the big word “fail” in red The shadow of this mysterious (神秘的) institution steals away what success means to us.
My first step of redefining success began with course registrations. It is a well-known fact, especially in my school, that Junior year is the time of packing many AP classes into the schedule. When asked why they chose so many AP classes, my friends responded: “I don’t know.” They themselves don’t know why they are following the crowd and longing for the pressures of academic difficulty. Therefore, they do not feel the satisfaction of being academically challenged.
Completing many courses no longer brings out the feeling of success because more than four AP classes per year is a norm set by top universities. Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. The feeling of success was no longer attached to what grade I received but to the pure joy of learning.
Even my failures are attached to a feeling of success; after I take a step back and look at the big picture, I see them as a launching pad (平台) for my next big achievement. In the ninth grade, I went in for my first group interview for a leadership position as a shy girl. Not standing a chance against competitive applicants, I came out of the interview with an upset look. Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself.
This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little.
5．Throughout the Junior year, what was the author’s major concern
A．Pressure from choosing AP classes. B．Performance in group interviews.
C．Competition with seniors. D．Recognition by colleges.
6．The author chose fewer AP classes because of _______.
A．her own understanding of success B．her desire for academic challenges
C．her strong urge to follow the crowd D．her dream of entering a top university
7．Which would best describe the author’s first group interview
A．Dignifying. B．Rewarding. C．Engaging. D．Relaxing.
8．What can we learn from this passage
A．Everyone is the maker of their own success.
B．Success favours those with a golden heart.
C．Success knocks at your door only once.
D．A college holds the key to success.
Passage 3（2025·浙江宁波·二模）
My fingers trembled as I signed the pre-medical application form. The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads.
Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”—something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic ” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate.
The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something—the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings.
Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed—graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your ‘impractical’ skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops.
Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out—they just multiply possibilities.
9．What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1
A．She had given up the hobby of drawing. B．She was excited about studying medicine.
C．She felt torn between art and medical study. D．She regretted not practicing painting earlier.
10．Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’ s “hidden skills” as ______.
A．a plus. B．a leisure. C．a distraction. D．a burden.
11．How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her
A．It helped develop her surgical skills. B．It directed her toward doctor training.
C．It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D．It convinced her of art’s role in healthcare.
12．What message does the author want to convey
A．Follow the beaten track to success. B．A picture is worth a thousand words.
C．Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D．Two strings to your bow light the way.
Passage 4（2024·北京海淀·一模）
At my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me plainly: “Now I will teach you how to write your name. And to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. I was curious.
Growing up in Singapore, I had an unusual relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese, so they asked fortune tellers to decide my name, aiming for maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nonsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, roughly, “old”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.
When I arrived in America for college at 18, I put on an American accent and abandoned my Chinese name. When I moved to Hong Kong in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage I thought.
In calligraphy, the idea is to copy the old masters’ techniques, thereby refining your own. Every week, though, my teacher would give uncomfortably on-the-nose assessments of my person. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Have confidence. Try to produce a bold stroke(笔画).” For years, I had prided myself on presenting an image of confidence, but my writing betrayed me.
I was trying to make sense of this practice. You must visualize the word as it is to be written and leave a trace of yourself in it. As a bodily practice, calligraphy could go beyond its own cultural restrictions. Could it help me go beyond mine My teacher once said to me, “When you look at the word, you see the body. Though a word on the page is two-dimensional, it contains multitudes, conveying the force you’ve applied, the energy of your grip, the arch of your spine.” I had been learning calligraphy to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. Now I have sensed that the pleasure out of calligraphy allows me to know myself more fully.
During a recent lesson, my teacher pointed at the word I had just finished, telling me: “This word is much better. I can see the choices you made, your calculations, your flow. Trust yourself. This word is yours.” He might as well have said, “This word is you.”
13．What did the author initially think of her name “Chen Yiwen”
A．It was lucky so she gladly accepted it.
B．She felt proud of its symbolic meaning.
C．She understood the intention but still disliked it.
D．Its strange pronunciation made her embarrassed.
14．The author decided to learn calligraphy to ______.
A．pick up a new hobby B．reconnect with her origin
C．gain insights into a new culture D．fit in with local community
15．From the teacher’s words, the author learns that calligraphy ______.
A．reflects the creator’s spirits B．comes from creative energy
C．highlights the design of strokes D．depends on continuous practice
16．What does the author intend to tell us
A．Appreciate what our culture offers. B．Find beauty from your inner self.
C．A great teacher leads you to truth. D．We are the sum of what we create.

Passage 1（2025·安徽合肥·一模）
It was my birthday, and I was celebrating it as I had for years: Watching the annual Perseid meteor shower (流星雨). But this time, as the meteors flashed across the sky, I, a junior girl, began to question, “Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby ”
I grew up in a small town, where even graduating from high school was not a given for many students. But I was driven to pursue my education, and like my best friend’s dad — a pharmacist (药剂师), one of the few professional role models in my neighborhood, therefore, I chose to major in pharmacy, the science of preparing medicines, at the University of North Carolina.
The university was only a 3.5-hour drive away, but it felt across the universe. In the weeks since I began my pharmacy degree, I had met people with jobs and PhDs in different branches of science I had never considered — neuroscience, archaeology, and even astrophysics. Their passion and knowledge opened my eyes to worlds I had never imagined. As my birthday and the Perseid meteor shower approached, I was faced with a decision: Should I stick to my long-standing plans or take a step into the unknown
Ultimately, a solar eclipse (日食) helped me make my decision. As the Moon gradually shaded the Sun, the world darkened around me. The stillness of the water, the desperate calls of birds, and the fading sunset deeply moved me. I knew what I had to do. I dropped out of pharmacy school to pursue previously unimagined options.
Facing years of challenges and growth, I worked odd jobs before earning a second degree in physics, starting a PhD in astronomy, and realized that the night sky’s vastness inspired me to overcome doubts and follow my dreams. As I approach the final year of my PhD, I realize that growing up with the night sky gave me a valuable gift. It gave me an insight into life: On the scale of our vast universe, our individual needs, desires, fears, and insecurities shrink to insignificance, bringing humanity together. It liberated me from allowing earthly worries, shame, or self-doubt to stand in the way of pursuing new dreams.
17．What motivated the author to major in pharmacy
A．Her ambition to become a doctor. B．The encouragement of her friend.
C．Her childhood passion for pharmacy D．The influence of her best friend’s father.
18．How did the author’s experience at university shape her
A．It helped her stick to her belief. B．It opened her mind to new ideas.
C．It enhanced her pharmacy study. D．It developed her thinking abilities.
19．What can we learn from the author’s understanding of life
A．Accepting insecurities helps us handle challenges.
B．Personal problems still matter in the vast universe.
C．It’s vital to pursue dreams despite personal challenges.
D．It is small and unimportant things that mean a lot to us.
20．Which of the following best describes the author
A．Caring and patient. B．Modest and honest.
C．Generous and helpful. D．Curious and determined.
Passage 2（2025·山东·二模）
At 17, Toronto’s Sheriauna Haase has already carved an extraordinary path as a world-class paraathlete, dancer, and actress. In November 2023, she secured dual bronze medals in the 100m and 200m races at Santiago’s Parapan American Games — a striking achievement for a teen who began paraathletics training just one year earlier. Born with a congenital limb reduction (先天性肌肉萎缩), Haase credits her success to resilience (复原力), self-belief, and the transformative power of support.
Haase’s athletic success is extended by her vibrant artistic pursuits. A dancer since age two, Haase channels self-expression through movement, landing roles in TV series like Circuit Breakers and The Next Step. Through acting, she advocates for disability representation, transforming dance into a celebration of identity, empowering her to accept her uniqueness.
Childhood bullying (欺凌) once shook her confidence, but her family, especially her mother, became her anchor. “They taught me to love myself as I am,” she says. This self-acceptance fueled her determination to master ballet routines and sprinting techniques alike.
Guided by coach Bob Westman, Athletics Canada’s lead para coach, Haase shaped her raw talent into medal-winning precision within two months. Westman, with over a decade of Paralympian training experience, praised her “focus, drive, and maturity”.
Now an ambassador for Holland Bloorview Children’s Rehabilitation Hospital, Haase champions inclusivity, inspiring others to accept their potential. Coach Westman predicts she’ll become a household name, not only for her athletic excellence but for her infectious enthusiasm for life. Her story highlights the power of self-love, support, and an unyielding spirit, urging others to celebrate uniqueness and unlock their boundless potential. “I want people to feel empowered,” she affirms.
21．What can we learn about Haase from paragraph 1
A．She gained remarkable results despite short training.
B．Her medals came from many years of focused practice.
C．Her training covered different fields from an early age.
D．She stressed more on hard training than improving skills.
22．What does the underlined word “anchor” in paragraph 3 refer to
A．A noticeable pride. B．A competitive challenge.
C．A reminder of duty. D．A source of strength.
23．Which of the following best describes Sheriauna Haase
A．Confident and reserved. B．Independent and humble.
C．Talented and tough-minded. D．Knowledgeable and inspiring.
24．What can be learned from Sheriauna Haase’s story
A．Talent in a field is the key to success. B．Disabilities set boundaries to our life.
C．Self-acceptance helps to beat barriers. D．Achievements result from creativity.
Passage 3（24-25高三上·湖南·月考）
Somewhere in California, just up a hill from the beach is a high school, where students will meet before traveling to neighboring San Clemente High School on a Saturday fora 2-mile walk to raise money to build a well in a Kenyan village.
Most Kenyans live where clean water is hard to access. The good news is that water that falls in the rainy season is stored far underground, sometimes as deep as 900 feet. But bringing it to the surface can be a challenge. Sometimes, it requires heavy-duty equipment. Shallower wells are less costly but still require manpower and technology to work. A single well can supply water to an entire village, and this can be life-changing.
Weeks before the first annual Healing Hands for Water Walk Fundraiser event in 2012, students walked in the beach town and asked for donations from businesses. They covered a lot more distance than the 2 miles they would cover during the event as student organizers Branner Grimsley, Klara Gundelach and Solveig Erngren pounded on the boardwalk. “But it was worth it to make a difference by helping these people in Africa,” Grimsley said.
Standing on the boardwalk and looking out over the sand to the horizon and beyond, you can see a lifeline reaching from a few dedicated kids to a similar group of kids in an African village. The connection was hard to imagine at first but now seems so real. Students on both sides of the world walk under the same sun. On other days, they would have different places to go, but today, they walk for the same reason: to share the bond of being one human family.
In another Kenyan village, a well was completed. As the villagers excitedly operated the hand pump, the anticipation built. Within minutes, a trickle of clean water flowed, then a gush. It was a miracle in such a dry village. Buckets were filled, and children splashed water. The tears of joy flowed as easily as the well water.
25．What can we know about building wells in Kenya from paragraph 2
A．It’s costly and useless. B．It’s easy and interesting
C．It’s challenging but cheap D．It’s difficult but worthwhile.
26．Why does paragraph 4 mention the connection
A．To praise the event’s participants. B．To show the difficulty of the event.
C．To share the bond of the human family. D．To highlight the significance of the event.
27．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The excitement of building a well.
B．The requirement for completing a well.
C．The joyous sight of drawing water from a well.
D．The quality of the water from a local village’s well.
28．Which of the following may be the best title for the text
A．From the Beach to Kenya B．Students’ Walk on the Beach
C．Walking to a Neighboring School D．Kenya’s Struggle for Clean Water
Passage 4（25-26高二上·广东·期中）
In my high school English class, I often witness the magic power of writing. At the beginning of the semester, I assigned a topic for the students to write about: “What is your dream ” I expected to read some inspiring and creative essays, but to my surprise, most of the papers were rather dull and lacked depth. The students seemed to struggle to express their true thoughts and feelings, and the essays were filled with clichés (陈词滥调) and general statements.
I realized that I needed to change my teaching approach. Instead of simply assigning topics, I decided to guide the students through the writing process step by step. We started with brainstorming sessions, where the students were encouraged to share their ideas and experiences about the topic. Then, we worked on organizing their thoughts and creating an outline. Finally, they began to write their first drafts.
As the students progressed through the writing process, I noticed a significant improvement in their work. They became more confident, and their essays were filled with vivid descriptions, personal experiences, and impressive reflections. One student, in particular, wrote about her dream of becoming a doctor. She shared her experience of visiting a hospital and seeing the doctors and nurses working hard to save lives. Her essay was so touching and sincere that it brought tears to my eyes.
Through this experience, I learned that writing is not just a skill to be taught; it is a powerful tool for self-expression and personal growth. As the semester came to an end, I asked the students to write a final essay reflecting on their learning experience. Many of them wrote about how much they had grown as writers. Reading their essays, I felt a sense of pride and satisfaction. I knew that I had made a difference in their lives, and I was grateful for the opportunity to be a part of their learning journey.
29．How did the author feel about the students’ first essays
A．She was moved by their true feelings.
B．She was deeply inspired by their creativity.
C．She felt disappointed by their lack of depth.
D．She was satisfied with their general statements.
30．What did the author do to help the students
A．She assigned more topics for them. B．She encouraged them to brainstorm.
C．She organized more activities for them. D．She provided them with detailed guidance.
31．Which of the following is NOT true about the students’ essays in paragraph 3
A．They were significant. B．They were impressive.
C．They were written in vivid language. D．They were true feelings and thoughts.
32．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Writing is mainly a skill to be taught.
B．The author felt proud of her students.
C．Students made a difference in their lives.
D．Students felt grateful for their learning journey.

【知识点】哲理感悟、记叙文、个人经历
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者作为一名写作课老师，通过教学实践逐渐认识到学生写作动力的来源以及写作真正意义的成长故事。
1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“In my ninth-grade writing class last year, I met a cowboy who saved his town, a strict father who demanded his son earn straight A’s, and a modern-day Juliet who died of heartbreak after her parents rejected the love of her young life. More than once, I found myself wondering just how my students, who’d created these people, knew their subjects so well. (去年，在我九年级的写作课上，我结识了一位拯救了自己小镇的牛仔、一位要求儿子门门功课全得A的严厉父亲，还有一位现代版的朱丽叶——她在父母拒绝其年少挚爱后心碎而逝。不止一次，我暗自琢磨，这些塑造了这些人物的学生，究竟是如何如此深谙他们笔下的角色的)”可知，这里提到的牛仔、严厉的父亲和现代版的朱丽叶都是学生在写作中创造出来的虚构人物。故选D。
2．推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Most of the essays filled less than one page, and few contained a sentence that could be interpreted as a thesis (论点) statement. I was shocked. Then I realized that the problem was the question itself. They could have written pages on the necessity of computers, but writing, in and of itself, simply didn’t strike them as important. (大多数文章篇幅不足一页，几乎没有包含可被视为论点的句子。我感到震惊。随后我意识到问题出在题目本身。他们本可以就电脑的必要性写下数页内容，但写作本身根本没让他们觉得重要)”可推知，学生们在写第一篇作文时表现不佳，是因为他们对写作这个话题本身不感兴趣。故选D。
3．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中划线词下文“The students took on diverse topics and turned in stories, 10 to 20 pages each, with characters that broadened my view and touched my heart. (学生们选取了多样的主题，交上来的故事每篇都有10到20页长，其中的人物拓宽了我的视野，也触动了我的心)”可推知，此处指学生们写出了内容丰富、打动人心的故事，与之前的表现形成强烈对比。划线词“staggering”意为“令人惊叹的、惊人的”，与B选项“Amazing (惊人的)”语义一致。故选B。
4．推理判断题。通读全文，再根据文章最后一段中“I walked into class believing that writing is important as a means of communication. However, my students demonstrated something more important to me. When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a yearbook full of messages about writing’s most powerful significance — the ability to connect people, to put us in another’s skin, to teach us what it means to be human. (我走进教室时坚信写作作为一种交流方式至关重要。然而，学生们向我展示了更为重要的东西。当六月的下课铃响起时，我带着一本满是留言的年鉴离开——这些留言诉说着写作最强大的意义：它能连接人与人，让我们换位思考，教会我们身为人类的真谛)”结合全文内容可知，文章通过作者的教学经历，说明她在教导学生的同时，自己也领悟到写作的真正意义，这一过程体现了“教学相长”的理念。选项A“Teaching is learning (教学相长)”符合文中描述的作者通过教学获得的新认识。故选A。

去年，在我带的九年级写作课上，我遇见了一位拯救了自己小镇的牛仔、一位要求儿子门门功课拿全优的严厉父亲，还有一位现代版的朱丽叶 —— 在父母拒绝了她年少的挚爱后，心碎而逝。不止一次，我暗自惊叹，这些塑造出鲜活人物的学生，究竟是如何如此深谙笔下角色的。
但他们写的第一篇作文，情况却截然不同。作文的题目是：“写作为什么重要？”大多数学生的作文篇幅不足一页，几乎找不到一句能称得上中心论点的句子。我倍感震惊，而后才意识到，问题出在题目本身。若是让他们写电脑的重要性，他们能洋洋洒洒写好几页，但写作这件事本身，在他们看来毫无分量。这种情况，必须改变。
新单元开启后，我让每位学生写一篇议论文，主题可以自选，只要和健康相关。这一次，他们明显对这个练习产生了浓厚的兴趣。在接下来的两次作业中，先是个人叙事单元，再是创意写作工坊，我只提出两个要求：文章要符合对应体裁的规范，且必须包含明确的中心论点。
结果超乎我的想象。学生们选取了五花八门的主题，交上来的故事每篇都有10到20页，笔下的人物既拓宽了我的视野，也触动了我的内心。
走进教室时，我始终坚信，写作作为一种沟通方式，有着不可替代的重要性。然而，学生们却让我明白了更珍贵的道理。六月，当学期末的下课铃响起，我带着一本写满留言的毕业年鉴离开，那些留言都在诉说着写作最强大的意义：它能连接人与人，能让我们换位思考、感同身受，能教会我们生而为人的真谛。

【知识点】哲理感悟、夹叙夹议、个人经历
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者在高三时对大学申请和成功定义的反思，不再盲目追随他人选择大量AP课程，而是基于个人兴趣选课，并从失败的小组面试中学习，通过自我调整最终获得领导职位。
5．推理判断题。根据第一段中“Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements Or will they see the big word “fail” in red (在整个高三期间，我和我的同学们一直担心，当大学将我们的整个人生故事浓缩成一篇200字的短文时，他们会看到什么。当他们回顾我们的成就时，脑海中会浮现出‘成功’这个金灿灿的词汇吗？还是会看到用红色标注的‘失败’这个醒目的大字？)”可知，作者在高三年级主要担心的是大学对他们的认可。故选D。
6．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. (我决心追随自己对成功的直觉理解，只选择了两门我确信自己会喜欢的课程。)”可知，作者选择较少的AP课程是因为她自己对成功的理解。故选A。
7．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself. (然而，这次面试并不是一次浪费的机会。我和一位高年级的申请者交谈，她回答问题的方式反映了她对自己的信心。)”以及最后一段中“This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little. (今年，我带着开放的心态和新的知识，再次走进集体面试的现场，告诉自己我就是那位自信满满的高年级学生。最终，我成功获得了一个领导职位。成功，就这样一点点地向我走来。)”可知，作者认为第一次面试是有收获的，因为它让作者从中学到了东西，并影响了她后来的面试表现。故选B。
8．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第三段中“Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. (我决心追随自己对成功的直觉理解，只选择了两门我确信自己会喜欢的课程。)”以及最后一段中“This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little. (今年，我带着开放的心态和新的知识，再次走进集体面试的现场，告诉自己我就是那位自信满满的高年级学生。最终，我成功获得了一个领导职位。成功，就这样一点点地向我走来。)”可知，作者通过自己的经历表明，成功并非由大学或外界标准定义，而是源于自我认知与努力。“Everyone is the maker of their own success. (每个人都是自己成功的创造者。)” 符合题意。故选A。
正文翻译
整个高三一年，我和同学们都在忧心一件事：当大学招生官把我们整个人生故事浓缩成一篇 200字的短文时，他们会看到什么？当他们审阅我们的履历，脑海中会浮现出“成功”这个金灿灿的词吗？还是会看到用红笔标注的、醒目的“失败”二字？这套神秘的招生体系带来的阴影，渐渐夺走了成功对我们原本的意义。
我重新定义成功的第一步，始于选课。这是一个众所周知的事实，尤其在我们学校，高三就是要把课表排满大学先修课程（AP）。当我问朋友们，为什么要选这么多AP课程时，他们的回答都是：“我不知道。”他们自己也不清楚，为什么要随波逐流，主动往自己身上套学业难度带来的压力。也正因如此，他们根本无法从学业挑战中获得成就感。
完成大量课程再也无法带来成功的喜悦，因为顶尖大学早已定下了标准：一年至少修四门以上的AP课程。我决心遵从本心，去追寻自己理解的成功，最终只选了两门我确定自己会真心喜欢的课程。那一刻，成功的意义不再和分数挂钩，而是源于学习本身最纯粹的快乐。
即便是我的失败，也与成功的喜悦紧密相连。当我退一步，纵观全局时会发现，这些失败都是我下一次取得重大成就的跳板。九年级时，我还是个腼腆的女孩，第一次参加了领导力岗位的小组面试。面对竞争力极强的对手，我毫无胜算，走出面试场时满脸沮丧。但这次面试并非毫无收获，我和一位高年级的申请者聊了很久，她回答问题的方式，处处彰显着发自内心的自信。
今年，我带着开放的心态和学到的经验，再次走进了小组面试的考场，不断告诉自己，我就是那个从容自信的学姐。最终，我成功拿下了这个领导力岗位。说到底，成功，从来都是一步一步走来的。

【知识点】生活故事、个人经历、记叙文
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了 Lora 在艺术和医学学习之间感到纠结，后来在学校职业招聘会、医院志愿者活动等经历的影响下，发现自己的艺术技能在医疗领域有独特的作用，从而将两者结合起来的故事。
9．推理判断题。根据第一段““Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads.(“艺术滋养灵魂，但会饿肚子”妈妈总是这么说。当我的生物课本慢慢把我的画本掩埋时，她的话萦绕在我心头)” 可知，Lora 在艺术和医学学习之间难以抉择，感到很纠结。故选C。
10．细节理解题。根据第二段“Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”—something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations.(哈佛大学的埃莉诺·惠特曼博士让我们列出自己的“隐藏技能”。当我写下“观察细节”时，我的手在颤抖——这是我从画花瓣中学到的。“这是医学研究最需要的技能！”她大声说道，并分享了一个学生如何将微生物学笔记变成教科书插图的故事)” 可知，Dr. Eleanor 认为 Lora 的 “隐藏技能” 是一个优势。故选A。
11．推理判断题。根据第三段“Watching surgeries, I noticed something—the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said.(在观看手术时，我注意到了一些事情 —— 医生稳定的手让我想起了我的绘画技巧。当一个男孩难以描述他的疼痛时，我在他的石膏上画了一条喷火的龙。护士说：“你让医学有了声音”)” 可推知，Lora 在医院的经历让她确信艺术在医疗保健中有作用。故选D。
12．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out—they just multiply possibilities.(如今，我的显微镜和画笔共用一张桌子。曾经在它们之间犹豫不决的手，现在为疫苗教育制作病毒的 3D 模型。有时我教年轻的病人画出他们的感受，而不是描述它们。我的故事不是关于内心和现实相互抵消 —— 它们只是增加了可能性)” 可知，文章主要传达了拥有两种技能（艺术和医学知识）可以照亮人生道路，带来更多可能性的信息。所以文章传达了“双管齐下，照亮道路”。故选D。
正文翻译
签下医学预科申请表时，我的手指止不住地颤抖。书桌上的水彩画笔，像被遗弃的朋友一样，静静望着我。我叫劳拉，今年18岁，当同学们在餐巾纸上画卡通画时，我总在偷偷画大脑结构图。妈妈总说：“艺术能滋养灵魂，却填不饱肚子。”当生物课本一点点掩埋我的画本时，这句话总在我脑海里挥之不去。
直到学校的职业招聘会，彻底改变了这一切。来自哈佛大学的埃莉诺 惠特曼博士，让我们写下自己的“隐藏技能”。我颤抖着手，写下了“细节观察”—— 这是我从画花瓣的过程中学到的本事。“这正是医学研究最需要的技能！” 她惊喜地说道，还和我们分享了一个学生如何把微生物学笔记做成教科书插画的故事。我的实验搭档小声说：“还记得我们做的光合作用漫画吗？” 那一刻，我人生中割裂的两个世界，第一次不再泾渭分明。
真正的惊喜，发生在医院做志愿者的日子里。观摩手术时，我发现了一件事：医生们稳如磐石的双手，像极了我握笔作画的样子。有个小男孩怎么也说不清楚自己的痛感，我就在他的石膏上画了一条喷火的巨龙。“你让医学有了温度。” 护士对我说。慢慢地，我的画本里，画满了像琉璃艺术一样的细胞，像抽象画一样排列的X光片。
我们的职业顾问道森先生，帮我把这些零散的点串联了起来。在他的白板上，我的医学知识和艺术技能，在一个明黄色的圆圈里完美重叠，圆圈里写着四个字：医学插画。他给我看了很多我从前闻所未闻的招聘信息：科学应用的平面设计师、解剖课的3D建模师。“你这项‘不实用’的技能，恰恰是你的核心优势。”他指着我画的巨龙说道 —— 如今，这幅画已经被用在了疼痛管理的工作坊里。
如今，我的显微镜和画笔，并肩摆在同一张书桌上。这双曾经在两者之间犹豫不决的手，如今正在为疫苗科普制作病毒3D模型。有时，我会教小患者们画出自己的感受，而不是勉强用语言描述。我的故事，从来不是理想与现实的非此即彼 —— 当两者相融，便会碰撞出无限可能。

【知识点】个人经历、记叙文
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了作者学习中国书法的经历和感悟，包括初次接触书法时的情景，名字的由来，在美国放弃中文名，回到香港学习书法的原因，老师对自己的评价，以及通过书法对自身的思考和认识等。
13．细节理解题。根据第二段“My parents are ethnically Chinese, so they asked fortune tellers to decide my name, aiming for maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nonsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, roughly, “old”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.( 我的父母是华裔，所以他们请算命先生给我取名字，希望能给我带来最大的好运。于是，我给自己取了一个毫无意义又尴尬的名字：陈薏温，意思大致是“陈旧”、“薏米”、“温暖”)”可知， 作者认为自己的名字“Chen Yi wen”是无意义且令人尴尬的，虽然父母是为了追求最大的运气才取这个名字，但她还是不喜欢。故选C。
14．细节理解题。根据第三段“When I moved to Hong Kong in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage I thought.(当我在美国生活了14年后，于2021年搬到香港时，我决定学习书法。为什么不跟我的传统联系一下呢？我想)”可知，作者决定学习书法是为了重新接触自己的文化根源。故选B。
15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“During a recent lesson, my teacher pointed at the word I had just finished, telling me: “This word is much better. I can see the choices you made, your calculations, your flow. Trust yourself. This word is yours.” He might as well have said, “This word is you.”(在最近的一次课上，老师指着我刚完成的字对我说：“这个字好多了。我能看到你所做的选择，你的计算，你的心流。相信自己。这个词是你的。”他还不如说：“这个字就是你。”)”可推知，从老师的话中，作者了解到书法反映了创作者的精神。故选A。
16．推理判断题。通读全文，特别是根据最后一段“During a recent lesson, my teacher pointed at the word I had just finished, telling me: “This word is much better. I can see the choices you made, your calculations, your flow. Trust yourself. This word is yours.” He might as well have said, “This word is you.”(在最近的一次课上，老师指着我刚完成的字对我说：“这个字好多了。我能看到你所做的选择，你的计算，你的心流。相信自己。这个词是你的。”他还不如说：“这个字就是你。”)”可知，作者最初学习书法是为了 “接触文化遗产（get back in touch with my heritage）”，但过程中逐渐意识到 “what I was really seeking was a return to myself（我真正寻求的是回归自我）”，最终感悟到 “the pleasure out of calligraphy allows me to know myself more fully（书法带来的乐趣让我更全面地了解自己）”。老师最后评价她的字 “this word is yours（这个字是你的）”，暗指 “字如其人”，作者通过书法探索自我、发现内在的价值与美好。故选B。
正文翻译
第一节中国书法课上，老师开门见山地对我说：“现在，我来教你写自己的名字，把它写得好看。” 我瞬间屏住了呼吸，心里满是好奇。
我在新加坡长大，和自己的中文名字之间，一直有着一段别扭的缘分。我的父母是华裔，当年请算命先生给我取了这个名字，只求能带来满满的好运。可最终，我得到的却是一个毫无意义、让我倍感尴尬的名字：陈薏温，字面意思大概是 “陈旧、薏米、温暖”。
18岁去美国读大学后，我刻意练出了美式口音，彻底抛弃了自己的中文名字。在美国生活了 14年后，2021年我搬到了香港，决定学习书法。我当时想，不如借此机会，重新触碰自己的文化根脉。
书法的核心要义，是临摹先贤的笔法，在这个过程中打磨出自己的风格。可每周上课，老师都会对我的性格做出一针见血、让我坐立难安的评价。有一次，他看着我的字说：“你要再勇敢一点，要有自信，下笔要果敢有力。”这么多年来，我一直以自己营造出的自信形象为傲，可我的字迹，却暴露了真实的我。
我开始试着理解这项技艺。落笔之前，你必须先在脑海中勾勒出字完整的模样，再把自己的痕迹，藏进笔墨里。作为一种身体力行的修行，书法能够跨越它本身的文化边界。那它，能不能帮我跨越自己内心的壁垒？老师曾对我说：“见字如见人。纸上的字虽是二维的，却藏着万千气象，能传递出你下笔的力道、握笔的气韵，甚至你脊背的弧度。”我当初学书法，本是为了触碰自己的文化根源，可最终真正追寻的，是回归自我。如今我真切地感受到，书法带来的愉悦，让我更完整地认识了自己。
最近的一节课上，老师指着我刚写完的字对我说：“这个字写得好多了。我能看到你做的取舍、你的考量、你的气韵流转。相信自己，这个字，是独属于你的。”他这话，无异于在说：“这个字，就是你。”

As my birthday and the Perseid meteor shower approached, I was faced with a decision: Should I stick to my long-standing plans or take a step into the unknown (在我开始药学学位的几周里，我遇到了一些从事我从未考虑过的不同科学领域工作的人们——神经科学、考古学，甚至是天体物理学——他们中有拥有博士学位的专业人士。他们的热情和知识为我打开了通往未曾想象过的世界的大门。随着我的生日和英仙座流星雨的临近，我面临着一个抉择：我是应该坚持长期以来的计划，还是迈出一步进入未知的领域？)”可知，作者遇到了从事不同科学分支工作的人们，这些经历打开了她的眼界，体现了她对新知识和领域的探索欲，作者在生日时观看一年一度的英仙座流星雨，并开始思考自己对天文学的热爱是否可以超越爱好，这显示了她对宇宙的好奇心；结合尾段或者的“Facing years of challenges and growth, I worked odd jobs before earning a second degree in physics, starting a PhD in astronomy, and realized that the night sky’s vastness inspired me to overcome doubts and follow my dreams.(面对多年的挑战与成长，我在获得第二个学位——物理学学位之前做过各种临时工作，随后开始了天文学的博士学位学习，并意识到夜空的广袤激励我克服了疑虑，追随自己的梦想。)”可知，作者意识到夜空的广袤激励她克服疑虑，追随梦想。这表明了她在追逐梦想道路上的坚定不移，综合以上信息可知，作者拥有一个既好奇又坚定的性格。故选D项。
正文翻译
那天是我的生日，我正像往年一样庆祝：观看一年一度的英仙座流星雨。但这一次，当流星划过夜空，我这个高三女生，突然开始问自己：“我这一生对天文学的热爱，难道只能止步于爱好吗？”
我在一个小镇长大，在这里，对很多学生来说，就连高中毕业都不是一件理所当然的事。但我一心想要继续求学，而我最好的朋友的父亲，是我们社区里为数不多的职业榜样之一 —— 一名药剂师。于是，我选择在北卡罗来纳大学主修药学，也就是研究药物配制的科学。
这所大学离家只有3.5小时的车程，却仿佛隔着整个宇宙。开始攻读药学学位的几周里，我遇见了形形色色的人，他们在我从未想过的科学领域拥有工作和博士学位 —— 神经科学、考古学，甚至天体物理学。他们的热爱与学识，为我打开了一个从未想象过的世界。随着我的生日和英仙座流星雨越来越近，我面临着一个抉择：是该坚持自己长久以来的计划，还是该迈步走向未知？
最终，一场日食，帮我下定了决心。当月亮一点点遮住太阳，周遭的世界渐渐暗了下来。水面的寂静、鸟儿慌乱的鸣叫、渐渐褪去的霞光，深深触动了我。我清楚地知道，自己该做什么了。我从药学院退学，去追寻那些从前从未想过的可能。
接下来的数年，满是挑战与成长。我打了各种零工，最终拿到了物理学的第二学位，开启了天文学的博士深造。我也终于意识到，夜空的浩瀚，激励着我战胜所有自我怀疑，去追寻自己的梦想。如今，我的博士生涯即将进入最后一年，我才明白，伴着夜空长大的经历，给了我一份无比珍贵的礼物。它让我对人生有了全新的领悟：在浩瀚的宇宙尺度面前，我们个人的需求、欲望、恐惧与不安，都变得微不足道，这恰恰让全人类紧密相连。它让我挣脱了束缚，不再让尘世的焦虑、羞耻与自我怀疑，阻挡我追寻新梦想的脚步。

17岁的谢丽奥娜 哈斯来自多伦多，身为世界级残疾人运动员、舞者和演员，她早已走出了一条非凡的人生道路。2023年11月，她在圣地亚哥泛美残疾人运动会上，一举拿下100米和200米两枚铜牌 —— 对于一年前才开始接受残疾人田径训练的少年来说，这无疑是一项惊人的成就。哈斯天生患有先天性肢体发育不全，她将自己的成功，归功于强大的复原力、坚定的自信，以及他人支持带来的改变人生的力量。
除了田径场上的成就，哈斯在艺术领域也有着蓬勃的追求。她从两岁开始学习舞蹈，通过肢体动作表达自我，还拿下了《断路器》《下一步》等电视剧的角色。通过表演，她为残障群体的荧幕发声奔走，将舞蹈变成了对自我身份的赞颂，也让自己更加坦然地接纳了这份与众不同。
童年时遭遇的校园霸凌，曾一度击垮了她的自信，但她的家人，尤其是母亲，成了她最坚实的精神支柱。“他们教会我，要爱原本的自己。”她说。这份自我接纳，化作了她的决心，让她既攻克了芭蕾舞的成套动作，也掌握了短跑的技术要领。
在加拿大残疾人田径队首席教练鲍勃 韦斯特曼的指导下，哈斯仅用两个月，就把自己未经打磨的天赋，练成了能拿下奖牌的精准技术。拥有十余年残奥会运动员执教经验的韦斯特曼，盛赞她“专注、有冲劲、心智成熟”。
如今，哈斯担任着荷兰布鲁维儿童康复医院的形象大使，始终为残障群体的包容性奔走，激励着更多人发掘自己的潜能。韦斯特曼教练预言，她终将成为家喻户晓的人物，不仅因为她卓越的运动成就，更因为她那极具感染力的、对生活的热忱。她的故事，向我们展现了自爱、他人支持与不屈精神的强大力量，也激励着我们每个人，拥抱自己的与众不同，解锁自身无限的潜能。“我想让每个人都感受到力量。”她坚定地说。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了加利福尼亚州一所高中的学生们一场2英里的步行活动，从而为肯尼亚一个村庄建造水井筹集资金。
25．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The good news is that water that falls in the rainy season is stored far underground, sometimes as deep as 900 feet. But bringing it to the surface can be a challenge. Sometimes, it requires heavy-duty equipment. Shallower wells are less costly but still require manpower and technology to work. A single well can supply water to an entire village, and this can be life-changing.(好消息是，雨季降下的雨水会被储存在地下深处，有时深达900英尺。但将这些水带到地表却是一项挑战。有时，这需要重型设备。较浅的水井成本较低，但仍需人力和技术来运作。一口水井就能为整个村庄供水，而这可能会彻底改变他们的生活。)”可知，将地下水带到地表可能是有挑战性的，但一口水井就能为整个村庄供水，可能会彻底改变他们的生活，这表明尽管有困难，但建井是值得的。故选D。
26．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The connection was hard to imagine at first but now seems so real. Students on both sides of the world walk under the same sun. On other days, they would have different places to go, but today, they walk for the same reason: to share the bond of being one human family.(起初这种联系很难想象，但现在却显得如此真实。世界各地的学生们都在同一个太阳下行走。在其他日子里，他们可能会去不同的地方，但今天，他们为了同一个原因而行走：分享作为人类大家庭的一员之间的纽带。)”可知，文中提到这种联系虽然起初难以想象，但现在却显得非常真实和重要。接着提到学生们为了同一个原因而行走，这突出了活动的重要性和其带来的深远影响，即连接了不同地方的人们，共同为改善他人生活而努力。故选D。
27．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“In another Kenyan village, a well was completed. As the villagers excitedly operated the hand pump, the anticipation built. Within minutes, a trickle of clean water flowed, then a gush. It was a miracle in such a dry village. Buckets were filled, and children splashed water. The tears of joy flowed as easily as the well water.(在肯尼亚的另一个村庄里，一口水井建成了。村民们兴奋地操作着手摇泵，期待之情溢于言表。几分钟后，一股细流涌出，随后是一股洪流。在这个干旱的村庄里，这简直是个奇迹。水桶被装满了，孩子们在水花中嬉戏。喜悦的泪水像井水一样自然而然地流淌。)”可知，最后一段描述了村民们兴奋地操作手摇泵，随后清洁的水流出，孩子们嬉戏，喜悦的泪水流淌，这些都是从井里抽水后村民们表现出的欢乐景象。故选C。
28．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Somewhere in California, just up a hill from the beach is a high school, where students will meet before traveling to neighboring San Clemente High School on a Saturday fora 2-mile walk to raise money to build a well in a Kenyan village.(在加利福尼亚州的某个地方，海滩旁的一座小山丘上有一所高中，学生们会在一个周六聚集于此，然后前往邻近的圣克莱门特高中，参加一场2英里的步行活动，旨在为肯尼亚一个村庄建造水井筹集资金。)”以及全文内容可知，加利福尼亚州的学生们从海滩旁的学校出发，通过步行活动筹集资金，为肯尼亚的村庄建造水井。选项A“From the Beach to Kenya(从海滩到肯尼亚)”很好地概括文本的主题，体现了活动的起点和终点，以及活动的目的和意义。故选A。
正文翻译
在加利福尼亚州，海滩旁的小山丘上，有一所高中。这里的学生们即将集合，在一个周六前往邻近的圣克莱门特高中，完成一场2英里的步行活动，为肯尼亚一个村庄的水井修建项目筹集善款。
大多数肯尼亚人生活的地方，清洁水源极难获取。好消息是，雨季的降水会储存在地下深处，有时深度可900英尺。但要把这些水抽到地表，却是一项巨大的挑战，有时还需要重型设备。浅井的成本更低，但依然需要人力和技术才能正常使用。一口井，就能为整个村庄供水，而这，足以改变他们的人生。
2012年，首届“治愈之手 净水步行筹款活动” 举办前的几周，学生们走遍了这座海滨小镇，向各家商户募集捐款。学生组织者布兰纳 格里姆斯利、克拉拉 冈德拉赫和索尔维格 恩格伦，在滨海步道上挨家挨户奔走，走过的路程，远比活动当天要走的2英里长得多。格里姆斯利说：“但能帮到非洲的人们，为他们的生活带来改变，这一切都值得。”
站在滨海步道上，望向沙滩尽头的地平线，再往更远处看，你仿佛能看到一条生命线，从一群满怀热忱的孩子手中，延伸到非洲村庄里的另一群孩子手中。这份联结，起初难以想象，如今却无比真切。世界两端的孩子们，沐浴在同一片阳光下。平日里，他们去往不同的地方，奔赴不同的人生，但在这一天，他们为了同一个理由前行：共享身为人类大家庭一员的血脉联结。
在肯尼亚的另一个村庄，一口水井顺利完工了。村民们兴奋地操作着手摇水泵，满心期待。短短几分钟内，先是一股清澈的细流缓缓涌出，紧接着便是奔涌的水柱。在这个干旱的村庄里，这就是一个奇迹。水桶被一一装满，孩子们在水花中嬉戏，喜悦的泪水，像井水一样，肆意流淌。

正文翻译
在我的高中英语课堂上，我常常见证着写作的神奇力量。学期初，我给学生们布置了一个写作题目：“你的梦想是什么？”我本以为会读到一些鼓舞人心、充满创意的文章，可出乎意料的是，大多数作文都枯燥乏味、缺乏深度。学生们似乎很难表达出自己真实的想法与感受，文章里满是陈词滥调和空洞的套话。
我意识到，自己必须改变教学方法。我不再是单纯地布置写作题目，而是决定一步步引导学生走完整个写作流程。我们先从头脑风暴开始，鼓励学生们分享和这个话题相关的想法与亲身经历；接着，我们一起梳理思路，搭建写作大纲；最后，他们才开始撰写初稿。
随着学生们一步步推进写作流程，我发现他们的作品有了翻天覆地的进步。他们变得更加自信，文章里满是生动的描写、真实的个人经历，还有令人动容的思考与感悟。其中有一位学生，写了自己想成为一名医生的梦想。她分享了自己去医院的经历，看到医护人员拼尽全力拯救生命的场景。她的文字真挚动人，看得我热泪盈眶。
这段经历让我明白，写作从来都不只是一项需要教授的技能，更是自我表达、实现个人成长的强大工具。学期末，我让学生们写最后一篇作文，反思自己这一学期的学习经历。很多学生都写到，作为写作者，自己收获了巨大的成长。读着他们的文章，我的心里满是骄傲与满足。我知道，我给他们的人生带来了积极的改变，也无比感恩，能有机会参与他们的这段学习旅程。
