第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分 50 分)
第一节(共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Many countries are considering reducing speed limits on motorways and in urban areas. Fuel savings and reductions in CO2 emissions are just two of the reasons for doing so.
Fuel consumption decreases the slower you drive, because the moving car has to overcome fewer physical forces such as air resistance and rolling friction (摩擦) between tyres and road. Air resistance increases with the square of the speed. This means that a car experiences 28% more air resistance at a speed of 130km/h than at 110km/h.
Slower speed is not the only way to reduce the CO2 emissions from your car. There are three automotive tips to help the climate else.
STREAMLINE THE CAR
1. Unevenness (不均匀) increases the air resistance of your car, and so its CO2 emissions. Four open windows increase fuel consumption by up to 27%.
GET UP THE GEARS (齿轮) QUICKLY
2. Petrol and diesel (柴油) cars should always be driven in the highest possible gear: the engine then has as few revolutions as possible. Fuel consumption between two gears can vary by up to 20%.
MAINTAIN TYRE PRESSURE
3. Car tyres at the recommended pressure ensure ideal driving. If the tyre pressure drops to 75% pressure, fuel consumption increases by 2%. If it drops by half, the increase is as much as
10%.
Here’s the breakdown of fuel consumption impact of driving habits and vehicle adjustments from the Federation of Danish Motorists (FDM).
试卷第 4 页，共 14 页
21 ．Why does driving at a lower speed help cut fuel use
A ．It weakens the physical forces the car must fight against.
B ．It changes the way air resistance affects the car.
C ．It lightens the weight of the moving vehicle.
D ．It makes the engine work at a higher speed.
22 ．What will happen if a car’s windows are wide open while driving
A ．It’ll lower the car’s air resistance.
B ．It’ll reduce the car’s CO2 emissions.
C ．It’ll lead to a sharp rise in fuel use.
D ．It’ll make the car run more smoothly.
23．What is the fuel-saving effect of reducing speed from 130km/h to 110km/h according to FDM data
A ．10%. B ．16%. C ．Up to 20%. D ．Nearly 28%.
B
About a year ago, my mother turned on the dishwasher and went to the airport to drop off my father who was headed overseas on a work trip. By the time she got back, there was water all over the kitchen floor. We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be
试卷第 5 页，共 14 页
replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after
dinner.
I soon found myself faced with a pile of thankless dishes in the sink, urging me to get on
with it and deliver on my duty. At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student
taking a tough course load. Gradually, I realized that, for about 15 minutes every day, I could slow down time and forget everything in the world as my mind, eyes and hands focused on a simple
task that would always result in success.
We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother immensely.
Washing dishes by hand has been more educational than I could have ever imagined. I’m running around stressed most of the day. There are homework assignments, projects, quizzes and tests competing for my attention and time. I’ve caged myself in a prison of my ambitions and
expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world.
However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing
dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots ofthe changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and meditated on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me.
24 ．Why did the author start washing dishes by hand
A ．The old dishwasher broke down. B ．His mother requested him to do so.
C ．He attempted to please his father. D ．The new dishwasher was over budget.
25 ．What did the author think of dish-washing initially
A ．It was a stress-reliever. B ．It was complicated.
C ．It was a money-saver. D ．It was burdensome.
26 ．What does the underlined word “perplexing” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A ．Offending. B ．Puzzling. C ．Discouraging. D ．Inspiring.
27 ．What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs
A ．He grew more sensitive to the beauty of nature.
B ．He regretted devoting too much time to study.
试卷第 6 页，共 14 页
C ．He decided to abandon some of his ambitions.
D ．He desired to move to a house with a larger yard.
C
For decades, beluga whales, known for their white skin and gentle nature, have been
beloved symbols of Canada’s marine life. Unfortunately, a heartbreaking crisis in Ontario has
exposed the broken bond between humans and animals: 30 captive (被囚禁的) belugas at
Marineland, once famous but now ruined by bankruptcy, have been abandoned and are struggling to survive.
Marineland, located by Niagara Falls, shut down in 2024 due to rising debts. Without
income for whale care, the park could no longer provide proper care for its 30 belugas. Most were born in captivity; consequently, they lack essential survival skills, making their release into the
wild a death sentence.
In 2025, in a desperate attempt to save the belugas, the park begged the Canadian
government to allow their transfer to a foreign marine facility — a last hope for their safety.
Unexpectedly, however, federal officials turned down the request flatly. They cited laws that ban the use of cetaceans for entertainment, arguing that relocating the whales would only keep them confined (受限) in tanks, which went against the spirit of the law.
This refusal put the park in a cruel dilemma: without support or relocation approval, it might have to euthanize the whales. Once kept for human amusement, these belugas now face
being forgotten — a tragic “selective abandonment,” unlike well-known species that draw public concern.
Above all, their suffering reveals a painful truth: humans often use animals for pleasure and profit, only to cast them aside when they are no longer useful. In fact, protecting animals
means keeping our promise to care for those we have taken in, especially when they are at their most vulnerable. These belugas did not choose to be confined to tanks; they were brought into captivity by humans. Thus, we owe them a chance to live a decent life, not a lonely and
unnecessary death.
28 ．Why are the belugas at Marineland unable to survive in the wild
A ．They are physically too weak for the wild. B ．They are afraid of human activities.
试卷第 7 页，共 14 页
C ．The wild ocean is badly polluted. D ．They lack basic survival skills.
29 ．Why did the Canadian government turn down the relocation request
A ．It conflicted with the spirit of related laws. B ．The cost of relocation was too high.
C ．The foreign facilities were not safe. D ．The whales might face a death sentence.
30 ．What does the underlined phrase “selective abandonment” most probably mean
A ．Giving up animals for economic reasons.
B ．Deserting animals in a careful way.
C ．Ignoring some animals while caring for others.
D ．Abandoning animals without official permission.
31 ．What message does the author mainly want to convey
A ．Animals should never be kept in captivity.
B ．Humans must take responsibility for the animals they use.
C ．Governments should pass stricter animal protection laws.
D ．Marine parks should be closed for ecological reasons.
D
Digital reading appears to be destroying habits of“deep reading”. Astonishing numbers of people with years of schooling are in effect illiterate. This month’s Ljubljana Manifesto (宣言)
explains: “The digital field may promote more reading than ever in history, but it also offers many temptations to read in a superficial and scattered (零散的) manner — or even not to read at all.
This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.”
That’s frightening, because “higher-level reading” has been essential to civilization. It
enabled the enlightenment and an international increase in empathy. Without it, we would suffer a lot. As the Ljubljana Manifesto notes, “as much as one-third of Europeans struggle even with
lower-level reading skills.” More than one-fifth of adults in the US “fall into the
illiterate/functionally illiterate category”. Separately, post-pandemic reading scores for American 13-year-olds are the lowest in decades. And the Washington-based Center for Global
Development recently estimated that literacy in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa among those with five years of schooling has decreased by 10% this past half century.
Experts in the Ljubljana Manifesto record the demerits of digital reading: “Recent studies of
试卷第 8 页，共 14 页
various kinds indicate a decline of critical and conscious reading, slow reading, non-strategic
reading and long-form reading.” When you read a book on paper, you can be entirely inside the experience, absorb hundreds of pages of details thoroughly and begin to capture the world’s
complexity. Online, says Maryanne Wolf of UCLA, we are “skimming, scanning, scrolling”. The medium is the message: doing deep reading on your phone is as hard as playing tennis with your phone. Recently, a bright 11-year-old told me I was wasting time on books: he absorbed more
information faster from Wikipedia. He had a point. But digital readers also absorb more misinformation and seldom absorb fine perspectives.
In short, as professors from Northwestern University foresaw in 2005, we are returning to the days when only an elite (精英) “reading class” consumes long texts, which is worrying.
32 ．What can we learn about digital reading from paragraph 1
A ．Digital reading has solved the problem of illiteracy.
B ．Digital reading has lessened the practice of deep reading.
C ．Digital reading has made deep reading accessible to wider readers.
D ．Digital reading has aroused a greater appreciation for deep reading.
33 ．What is the purpose of the figures used in paragraph 2
A ．To display the popularity of digital reading.
B ．To highlight the advantages of deep reading.
C ．To present the unfavorable situation of literacy.
D ．To stress the illiterate’s lower-level reading skills.
34 ．What does the underlined word “demerits” in paragraph 3 mean
A ．Effects. B ．Depths. C ．Features. D ．Drawbacks.
35 ．What might be talked about in the following paragraph
A ．Advantages of digital reading. B ．Benefits of higher-level reading.
C ．Ways to encourage digital reading. D ．Measures to practice deep reading.

阅读下面短文，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。
The time of day and length of time you nap (打盹儿) can provide benefits or create
试卷第 9 页，共 14 页
problems. Knowing when to nap and providing yourself with a suitable napping environment will produce the greatest benefits. 36 Take a nap if you’re experiencing new tiredness, if
you’re about to experience sleep loss, such as a long travel day or workday or if you want to make naps a part of your daily routine. Here are four tips to make your naps more effective:
Set aside a certain amount of time. If you wake up feeling groggy (昏沉) after a nap, you’re sleeping too long. 37
Plan to take naps in the afternoon. 38 This is because you’re likely to experience a lower level of sleepiness following lunch. You’re also more likely to avoid interference (打扰) with nighttime sleep if you nap around this time. However, some people may adjust their napping time to fit their work or school schedules.
Create a quiet environment. Some people struggle to sleep during the day, but there are
measures you can take to help become more relaxed. Turning off any screens, such as your phone, will make you avoid interference. 39 Adjusting the room temperature to what is
comfortable for you also can make your space more comfortable.
40 Allowing yourself enough time to wake up before continuing activities after your nap is important, as you may feel groggy.
A ．Give yourself time to wake up.
B ．The best time to nap is around 2 p.m. or 3 p.m.
C ．A physical exam or sleep study may be necessary.
D ．Talk with your health care team if you nap too much.
E ．The proper nap length is between 15 and 30 minutes.
F ．Find a quiet space with little light to improve your naps.
G ．There are certain times when a nap may be more beneficial to your health.

When Jessica Watkins was seven years old, she told her parents she wanted to become an astronaut. They smiled, 56 (encourage) by her determination, but thought it was just a
child’s dream. Twenty years later, Watkins proved them wrong.
Growing up in a small town, she had limited access 57 science museums or space camps. Yet she never gave up. Every night, she would study under the dim light, 58
(complete) her homework before helping her younger siblings.
Her hard work paid off. She earned a scholarship to a top university, 59 she studied geology. After graduation, she applied to NASA’s astronaut program — twice. The first time, she was turned 60 . But she didn’t let failure define her. She gained more experience, earned a doctorate, and applied again.
In 2026, Watkins finally received 61 call she had been waiting for. She was selected as one of twelve 62 (candidate) for the Mars mission training program. When asked about her journey, she said, “Success is not about never 63 (fall). It’s about getting up one more time than you fall.”
Her story 64 (share) widely on social media, inspiring millions of young people.
Today, she serves as a powerful reminder that with persistence, even the 65 (far) dreams can become reality.

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。
In my free time, I like hiking challenges. It’s how I feed myself, physically, mentally, spiritually.
I looked over at my husband, Mike, and friends Emily and Jean, who’d joined me on this climb to the top of Nippletop Mountains. They were all fit, experienced hikers, though not as
enthusiastic about it as me, Mike especially. He’s more of a tech guy.
We’d set offin the morning, dressed in layers against coldness. It took us just less than five hours to cover the five miles to the peak of Nippletop, with more snow and ice on the rocky trail the closer we got to the top. It was almost 1:30 pm now. We started to head down soon before it
got dark.
A friendly young hiker waved to us. “Hey, want me to take your picture ”
“Absolutely!”
Mike gave the hiker his phone. That hiker snapped a few pictures for us.
We continued. I said, “I want to take a different trail so as to save time. It’s steeper (陡峭)
but shorter.”
I led the way. They followed me with some distance apart. Carefully I sidestepped down
the slope. A quarter mile down, I stopped and looked up the trail for the others. I couldn’t see
them. Then a scream broke the quietness. Mike! He sprawled (瘫坐) on a steep, narrow, wooded part of the trail, about 100 feet ahead of me. Ice everywhere. His hands were holding his right leg tightly.
试卷第 13 页，共 14 页
I shouted, “What happened ”
“I slipped on the ice,” he said. “Then I heard this crack. It hurts badly!”
Moments later, we got to Mike. “What should we do ” I asked. Jean checked Mike’s ankle. “We need to splint (夹板) it,” she said.
We fixed a hiking pole to Mike’s leg. What now There was no way the three of us women could carry him down this mountain.
I pulled out my cell phone and called 911. Nothing. No signal. It was the same with the other three phones.
”Can I help ” It was the guy who’d taken our picture at the mountain top.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150 词左右；

2 ．B
【原文】M: So what do you fancy tonight, Amber I’m pretty starving.
W: Well, Max, we haven’t tried that new Korean place across from the city library, so why don’t we check it out
M: Sounds perfect.
3 ．A
【原文】M: Excuse me, could you help me with the self-checkout
W: Of course, I’d be happy to help. Press the start button and scan your purchases, then press the pay button. We accept cards and mobile payments.
4 ．C
【原文】M: Hello, Miss Carter. Thanks for meeting me here at the apartment.
W: Oh, I’m excited to take a closer look.
M: This is one of our most popular listings. It is well maintained by the current owners, so you shouldn’t have to worry about major repairs anytime soon.
5 ．B
【原文】W: Have you seen the latest update on the school website The new plan looks great.
M: Yes, I like the idea of building a vegetable garden on the roof. It’s a very sustainable project.

【原文】W: How are you feeling about the volleyball next week Your team’s done brilliantly to get into the final.
M: Yeah, everyone’s pretty convinced we’ll be bringing home the winner’s cup, so there’ll be loads more fans at the game than we’re used to.
W: So will there be any challenges
M: Well, the team we’re playing against is a bit of an unknown quantity. We don’t really know what they’re capable of. I mean, if they happen to be on top form as they were earlier in the

tournament, we may struggle.
8 ．C 9 ．A 10 ．A
【原文】W: That new sleep tracker you recommended is fascinating and slightly terrifying.
M: How so
W: The data has been eye-opening for me. According to this, for 88% of the time, I don’t get into deep sleep.
M: What’s your sleep efficiency
W: 85% last night, but it ranges from 70% to 90%. Honestly, knowing this might be making my sleep problem worse.
M: Well, we monitor sleep to improve it, but the monitoring causes stress.
W: Exactly. Maybe ignorance makes it easier.
M: Try using it just weekly for sleep patterns like your average sleep time.
11 ．C 12 ．C 13 ．B
【原文】W: Doctor Evans, I’m not sure ifI should insist on my kids doing chores. Does it really matter
M: Absolutely. A study published in Child Development found that children who regularly take on household responsibilities are more likely to be ambitious and independent adults.
W: That makes sense, but how do I get them to do chores without constant arguing
M: The key is to match tasks to the child’s age. For younger kids, start with small jobs, like having a two- or three-year-old put away toys. Around 10 or 11, they can handle changing bed sheets.
W: And how do I keep them motivated
M: Start by making chores fun, turning them into a game. Also praise their effort. A star chart can work well. But most importantly, and this is often overlooked, be the example you want your
children to follow.

答案第 2 页，共 13 页
M: I started out creating designs and making logos, and then my older brother Spencer came to help me with the business. We got the ball rolling by selling to our classmates, relatives and the like.
W: What was the biggest challenge along the way
M: I’d say the biggest issue was the risk of buying large quantities of materials to be more
cost-efficient. We had to be confident that people would like and buy our products, so we ran online surveys among our early followers to get a better sense of what they wanted.
W: You’ve gained lots of publicity through celebrities and influencers, ranging from NBA athletes to singers. How did you go about creating such a wide base
M: I basically contacted many athletes, musicians and others with strong online influence. Having influencers wear our products has been one of the biggest drivers of growth. Now we have over
80,000 followers.

15-minute Q&A session. During the talk, Doctor Martin will cover key strategies, including
setting clear goals, prioritizing tasks and using time blocking techniques. These methods are
designed to increase efficiency and create space for meaningful activities, and above all, to reduce stress, a benefit that many find both fresh and valuable. To make the most of this session, please type your questions into the chat box throughout the presentation. I will select some of the most
representative questions, and Doctor Martin will address them after her talk. Thank you again for being here. Let’s begin.
21 ．A 22 ．C 23 ．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了降低车速、优化车身设计、快速换挡及保持轮胎压力等可减少汽车燃油消耗和二氧化碳排放。
答案第 3 页，共 13 页
21 ．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Fuel consumption decreases the slower you drive, because the moving car has to overcome fewer physical forces such as air resistance and rolling friction (摩擦) between tyres and road.(你开得越慢，燃油消耗就越少，因为行驶中的汽车需要克服的物理阻力就越少，比如空气阻力和轮胎与路面之间的滚动摩擦力)”可知，以较低的速度行驶有助于减少燃油消耗是因为它削弱了汽车必须对抗的物理力。故选 A。
22 ．细节理解题。根据 STREAMLINE THE CAR 部分中“Four open windows increase fuel
consumption by up to 27%.(四个打开的窗户会使燃油消耗增加高达 27%)”可知，如果开车时车窗大开，会导致燃油使用量急剧上升。故选 C。
23．细节理解题。根据图表中“Speed:130→ 110 km/h (Fuel/CO Saving)(车速：130 → 110 公里/小时（燃油/二氧化碳节省）)”对应的“16%”可知，根据 FDM 的数据，将车速从 130km/h 降至 110km/h 的节油效果是 16% 。故选 B。
24 ．A 25 ．D 26 ．B 27 ．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因洗碗机故障而开始手洗碗碟，从最初觉得麻烦到后来将其视为一种放松和思考的时间，最终在洗碗的过程中获得了内心的平静和对生活的感悟。
24 ．细节理解题。根据第一段中“We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand
after dinner. (我们叫了修理工，却被告知洗碗机必须更换。我们订购了一台新的，但需要一个多月才能到货。由于母亲日程紧张，我别无选择，只好承担起晚饭后手洗碗碟的任务)”可知，作者开始手洗碗碟是因为旧洗碗机坏了。故选 A 项。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段中“At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student
taking a tough course load. (刚开始，我洗碗时感到很恼火。我急于尽快洗完，因为作为一名 课业繁重的高中生，我有做不完的事情)”可知，作者最初认为洗碗是一件令人厌烦的负担。故选 D 项。
26 ．词句猜测题。根据第三段中“We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I
continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother immensely. (我们终于把新 洗碗机安放好了。然而，我晚饭后继续手洗碗碟，这让母亲 perplexing 不已)”可知，尽管新洗碗机已经安装到位，但作者却仍坚持手洗，这种行为与常理不符，会让母亲感到“ 困惑”。
答案第 4 页，共 13 页
故划线词 perplexing 意为“使困惑” ，与“Puzzling” 同义。故选 B 项。
27 ．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“I’ve caged myself in a prison of my ambitions and
expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world.(我把自己囚禁在野心和期望的监狱里，与世界的许多方面隔绝了)”和最后一段中“However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken
snap-shots ofthe changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and meditated on the
passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me. (然而，每天站在厨房窗前同一个位置洗碗，让我找回了一部分这样的联系。我的脑海中捕捉着厨房窗外院子景色的变化，沉思着眼前这一方天地里时间的流逝)”可知，作者每天站在厨房窗前同一个位置洗碗，脑海中捕捉着厨房窗外院子景色的变化，对自然之美变得更加敏感。故选 A 项。
28 ．D 29 ．A 30 ．C 31 ．B
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要介绍加拿大海洋公园因破产遗弃白鲸，政府拒绝转移申请，作者借此呼吁人类对所利用的动物承担责任。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Most were born in captivity; consequently, they lack essential survival skills, making their release into the wild a death sentence.(大多数白鲸是圈养出生的，因此它们缺乏基本的生存技能，将它们放归野外无异于死刑。)”可知，这些白鲸无法在野外生存是因为缺少基本生存技能。故选 D 项。
29 ．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Unexpectedly, however, federal officials turned down the
request flatly. They cited laws that ban the use of cetaceans for entertainment, arguing that
relocating the whales would only keep them confined (受限) in tanks, which went against the
spirit of the law.(然而，出乎意料的是，联邦官员断然拒绝了这一请求。他们援引了禁止将鲸类用于娱乐的法律，认为转移这些鲸鱼只会让它们继续被关在水箱里，这违反了法律精神)”可知，政府拒绝申请是因为此举与相关法律精神相悖。故选 A 项。
30 ．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Once kept for human amusement, these belugas now face
being forgotten — a tragic “selective abandonment,” unlike well-known species that draw public concern.(这些白鲸曾经被圈养供人类娱乐，现在却面临被遗忘的命运——这是一种悲惨的 “selective abandonment” ，不像那些备受公众关注的知名物种”可知，这些白鲸被人遗忘，而另一些知名物种却能获得公众关注，二者形成对比，因此该短语指人们只关心部分动物，却忽视另一些动物。故选 C 项。
31 ．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“Above all, their suffering reveals a painful
答案第 5 页，共 13 页
truth: humans often use animals for pleasure and profit, only to cast them aside when they are no
longer useful. In fact, protecting animals means keeping our promise to care for those we have
taken in, especially when they are at their most vulnerable.(最重要的是，它们的遭遇揭示了一个
残酷的真相：人类常为娱乐和利益利用动物，无用时便将其抛弃。事实上，保护动物意味着信守承诺，照顾我们收养的动物，尤其是在它们最脆弱的时候。)”可知，作者核心想传达人类必须为自己所利用的动物承担责任。故选 B 项。
32 ．B 33 ．C 34 ．D 35 ．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了数字阅读对深度阅读习惯的破坏性影响，以及深度阅读在文明和人类发展中的重要性。
32 ．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Digital reading appears to be destroying habits of “deep
reading” . (数字阅读似乎正在破坏“深度阅读” 的习惯。)”和“The digital field may promote more reading than ever in history, but it also offers many temptations to read in a superficial and
scattered (零散的) manner — or even not to read at all. This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.(数字领域可能比历史上任何时候都促进了更多的阅读，但它也提供了许多诱惑，以肤浅和分散的方式阅读——甚至根本不阅读。这越来越危及更高水平的阅读。)”可知，数字阅读削弱了深度阅读的实践。故选 B 项。
33 ．推理判断题。根据第二段中“As the Ljubljana Manifesto notes, “as much as one-third of
Europeans struggle even with lower-level reading skills.” More than one-fifth of adults in the US “fall into the illiterate/functionally illiterate category” . Separately, post-pandemic reading scores
for American 13-year-olds are the lowest in decades. And the Washington-based Center for
Global Development recently estimated that literacy in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa among those with five years of schooling has decreased by 10% this past half century. (正如《卢布尔雅那宣言》所指出的，“ 多达三分之一的欧洲人甚至在较低水平的阅读技能上挣扎。”超过五分之一的美国成年人“属于文盲/功能性文盲” 。另外，大流行后美国 13 岁儿童的阅读分数是几十年来最低的。总部位于华盛顿的全球发展中心(Center for Global Development)最近估计，在过去的半个世纪里，南亚和撒哈拉以南非洲地区接受过 5 年教育的儿童的识字率下降了 10% 。)”可知，这些数字展示了目前读写能力的状况不容乐观。故选 C 项。
34 ．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Experts in the Ljubljana Manifesto record the demerits of digital reading: “Recent studies of various kinds indicate a decline of critical and conscious
reading, slow reading, non-strategic reading and long-form reading.” (《卢布尔雅那宣言》的专
答案第 6 页，共 13 页
家们记录了数字阅读的 demerits：“最近各种各样的研究表明，批判性阅读、有意识阅读、慢读、非战略性阅读和长篇阅读的数量正在下降。”)”中“a decline of critical and conscious
reading, slow reading, non-strategic reading and long-form reading”可知，这些都是数字阅读盛行带来的问题和弊端，所以划线词 demerits 与 drawbacks 同义，意为“缺点，弊端 ”。故选 D项。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“In short, as professors from Northwestern University foresaw in 2005, we are returning to the days when only an elite (精英) “reading class” consumes long texts, which is worrying. (简而言之，正如西北大学的教授们在 2005 年所预见的那样，我们正在回到只有精英“ 阅读阶层”才会阅读长文本的时代，这令人担忧。)”可知，文章最后表达了作者对现状的担忧，害怕我们会回到只有精英“ 阅读阶层”才会阅读长文本的时代。由此推知， 作者接下来可能会就如何练习深度阅读给出具体的建议。故选 D 项。
36 ．G 37 ．E 38 ．B 39 ．F 40 ．A

36 ．上文“Knowing when to nap and providing yourself with a suitable napping environment will produce the greatest benefits.(知道什么时候小睡，并为自己提供一个合适的小睡环境将产生最大的好处。)”指出小睡对你有好处，空处承接上文，继续描述小睡的好处，G 项“有些时候，小睡可能对你的健康更有益。”符合，故选 G。
37．上文“If you wake up feeling groggy (昏沉) after a nap, you’re sleeping too long.(如果你在小睡后醒来感到头昏眼花，说明你睡得太久了。)”指出小睡的时间太久会让你感到头昏眼花，所以不要花太长时间小睡，空处承接上文，介绍合适的小睡时间，E 项“适当的小睡时间在 15 到 30 分钟之间。”符合语境，故选 E。
38 ．上文“Plan to take naps in the afternoon.(计划在下午小睡一会儿。)”是本段主题句，由此可知，本段主要介绍了小睡最好在下午，B 项“午小睡的最佳时间是下午 2 点或 3 点左右。”符合，具体介绍了下午小睡的时间，故选 B。
39．根据本段首句“Create a quiet environment.(创造一个安静的环境。)”和上文“Turning off any screens, such as your phone, will make you avoid interference. (关闭所有屏幕，比如手机，可以避免干扰。)”可知，要找一个安静，没有光线的地方小睡，F 项“找一个安静、光线不足的地方来改善你的小睡。”符合，故选 F。

67 ．My words came out in a rush. “Yes, please! Mike needs help. He fell on the ice and hurt his ankle. We don’t have any phone signal to call for help. We tried all our phones but couldn’t get a connection.” The hiker nodded. “I’ll go down and call 911. Don’t worry. I’ll be back with help.”
An hour went by, then another, and there was nothing we could do except wait for rescue in the coldness. Finally, we saw several rescue workers coming up the trail. They had blankets,
splints, and a stretcher for Mike. I thanked the hiker for his help. He smiled and said, “It’s no
problem. I’m just glad I was able to help.” Mike was taken to the hospital and was able to make a full recovery. I’ll never forget the kindness of that hiker, whose actions will stay with me forever. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开， 讲述了作者与丈夫迈克和朋友去尼普尔托普山徒步，在下山途中丈夫在冰上滑倒，脚踝受伤。一行人的手机没有信号，无法联系救援。这时一个徒步旅行者出现，询问是否需要帮助。

第一节(共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Many countries are considering reducing speed limits on motorways and in urban areas. Fuel savings and reductions in CO2 emissions are just two of the reasons for doing so.
Fuel consumption decreases the slower you drive, because the moving car has to overcome fewer physical forces such as air resistance and rolling friction (摩擦) between tyres and road. Air resistance increases with the square of the speed. This means that a car experiences 28% more air resistance at a speed of 130km/h than at 110km/h.
Slower speed is not the only way to reduce the CO2 emissions from your car. There are three automotive tips to help the climate else.
STREAMLINE THE CAR
1. Unevenness (不均匀) increases the air resistance of your car, and so its CO2 emissions. Four open windows increase fuel consumption by up to 27%.
GET UP THE GEARS (齿轮) QUICKLY
2. Petrol and diesel (柴油) cars should always be driven in the highest possible gear: the engine then has as few revolutions as possible. Fuel consumption between two gears can vary by up to 20%.
MAINTAIN TYRE PRESSURE
3. Car tyres at the recommended pressure ensure ideal driving. If the tyre pressure drops to 75% pressure, fuel consumption increases by 2%. If it drops by half, the increase is as much as
10%.
Here’s the breakdown of fuel consumption impact of driving habits and vehicle adjustments from the Federation of Danish Motorists (FDM).
试卷第 4 页，共 14 页
21 ．Why does driving at a lower speed help cut fuel use
A ．It weakens the physical forces the car must fight against.
B ．It changes the way air resistance affects the car.
C ．It lightens the weight of the moving vehicle.
D ．It makes the engine work at a higher speed.
22 ．What will happen if a car’s windows are wide open while driving
A ．It’ll lower the car’s air resistance.
B ．It’ll reduce the car’s CO2 emissions.
C ．It’ll lead to a sharp rise in fuel use.
D ．It’ll make the car run more smoothly.
23．What is the fuel-saving effect of reducing speed from 130km/h to 110km/h according to FDM data
A ．10%. B ．16%. C ．Up to 20%. D ．Nearly 28%.

About a year ago, my mother turned on the dishwasher and went to the airport to drop off my father who was headed overseas on a work trip. By the time she got back, there was water all over the kitchen floor. We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be
试卷第 5 页，共 14 页
replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after
dinner.
I soon found myself faced with a pile of thankless dishes in the sink, urging me to get on
with it and deliver on my duty. At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student
taking a tough course load. Gradually, I realized that, for about 15 minutes every day, I could slow down time and forget everything in the world as my mind, eyes and hands focused on a simple
task that would always result in success.
We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother immensely.
Washing dishes by hand has been more educational than I could have ever imagined. I’m running around stressed most of the day. There are homework assignments, projects, quizzes and tests competing for my attention and time. I’ve caged myself in a prison of my ambitions and
expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world.
However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing
dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots ofthe changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and meditated on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me.
24 ．Why did the author start washing dishes by hand
A ．The old dishwasher broke down. B ．His mother requested him to do so.
C ．He attempted to please his father. D ．The new dishwasher was over budget.
25 ．What did the author think of dish-washing initially
A ．It was a stress-reliever. B ．It was complicated.
C ．It was a money-saver. D ．It was burdensome.
26 ．What does the underlined word “perplexing” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A ．Offending. B ．Puzzling. C ．Discouraging. D ．Inspiring.
27 ．What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs
A ．He grew more sensitive to the beauty of nature.
B ．He regretted devoting too much time to study.

C ．He decided to abandon some of his ambitions.
D ．He desired to move to a house with a larger yard.

For decades, beluga whales, known for their white skin and gentle nature, have been
beloved symbols of Canada’s marine life. Unfortunately, a heartbreaking crisis in Ontario has
exposed the broken bond between humans and animals: 30 captive (被囚禁的) belugas at
Marineland, once famous but now ruined by bankruptcy, have been abandoned and are struggling to survive.
Marineland, located by Niagara Falls, shut down in 2024 due to rising debts. Without
income for whale care, the park could no longer provide proper care for its 30 belugas. Most were born in captivity; consequently, they lack essential survival skills, making their release into the
wild a death sentence.
In 2025, in a desperate attempt to save the belugas, the park begged the Canadian
government to allow their transfer to a foreign marine facility — a last hope for their safety.
Unexpectedly, however, federal officials turned down the request flatly. They cited laws that ban the use of cetaceans for entertainment, arguing that relocating the whales would only keep them confined (受限) in tanks, which went against the spirit of the law.
This refusal put the park in a cruel dilemma: without support or relocation approval, it might have to euthanize the whales. Once kept for human amusement, these belugas now face
being forgotten — a tragic “selective abandonment,” unlike well-known species that draw public concern.
Above all, their suffering reveals a painful truth: humans often use animals for pleasure and profit, only to cast them aside when they are no longer useful. In fact, protecting animals
means keeping our promise to care for those we have taken in, especially when they are at their most vulnerable. These belugas did not choose to be confined to tanks; they were brought into captivity by humans. Thus, we owe them a chance to live a decent life, not a lonely and
unnecessary death.
28 ．Why are the belugas at Marineland unable to survive in the wild
A ．They are physically too weak for the wild. B ．They are afraid of human activities.
试卷第 7 页，共 14 页
C ．The wild ocean is badly polluted. D ．They lack basic survival skills.
29 ．Why did the Canadian government turn down the relocation request
A ．It conflicted with the spirit of related laws. B ．The cost of relocation was too high.
C ．The foreign facilities were not safe. D ．The whales might face a death sentence.
30 ．What does the underlined phrase “selective abandonment” most probably mean
A ．Giving up animals for economic reasons.
B ．Deserting animals in a careful way.
C ．Ignoring some animals while caring for others.
D ．Abandoning animals without official permission.
31 ．What message does the author mainly want to convey
A ．Animals should never be kept in captivity.
B ．Humans must take responsibility for the animals they use.
C ．Governments should pass stricter animal protection laws.
D ．Marine parks should be closed for ecological reasons.
D
Digital reading appears to be destroying habits of“deep reading”. Astonishing numbers of people with years of schooling are in effect illiterate. This month’s Ljubljana Manifesto (宣言)
explains: “The digital field may promote more reading than ever in history, but it also offers many temptations to read in a superficial and scattered (零散的) manner — or even not to read at all.
This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.”
That’s frightening, because “higher-level reading” has been essential to civilization. It
enabled the enlightenment and an international increase in empathy. Without it, we would suffer a lot. As the Ljubljana Manifesto notes, “as much as one-third of Europeans struggle even with
lower-level reading skills.” More than one-fifth of adults in the US “fall into the
illiterate/functionally illiterate category”. Separately, post-pandemic reading scores for American 13-year-olds are the lowest in decades. And the Washington-based Center for Global
Development recently estimated that literacy in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa among those with five years of schooling has decreased by 10% this past half century.
Experts in the Ljubljana Manifesto record the demerits of digital reading: “Recent studies of
试卷第 8 页，共 14 页
various kinds indicate a decline of critical and conscious reading, slow reading, non-strategic
reading and long-form reading.” When you read a book on paper, you can be entirely inside the experience, absorb hundreds of pages of details thoroughly and begin to capture the world’s
complexity. Online, says Maryanne Wolf of UCLA, we are “skimming, scanning, scrolling”. The medium is the message: doing deep reading on your phone is as hard as playing tennis with your phone. Recently, a bright 11-year-old told me I was wasting time on books: he absorbed more
information faster from Wikipedia. He had a point. But digital readers also absorb more misinformation and seldom absorb fine perspectives.
In short, as professors from Northwestern University foresaw in 2005, we are returning to the days when only an elite (精英) “reading class” consumes long texts, which is worrying.
32 ．What can we learn about digital reading from paragraph 1
A ．Digital reading has solved the problem of illiteracy.
B ．Digital reading has lessened the practice of deep reading.
C ．Digital reading has made deep reading accessible to wider readers.
D ．Digital reading has aroused a greater appreciation for deep reading.
33 ．What is the purpose of the figures used in paragraph 2
A ．To display the popularity of digital reading.
B ．To highlight the advantages of deep reading.
C ．To present the unfavorable situation of literacy.
D ．To stress the illiterate’s lower-level reading skills.
34 ．What does the underlined word “demerits” in paragraph 3 mean
A ．Effects. B ．Depths. C ．Features. D ．Drawbacks.
35 ．What might be talked about in the following paragraph
A ．Advantages of digital reading. B ．Benefits of higher-level reading.
C ．Ways to encourage digital reading. D ．Measures to practice deep reading.

problems. Knowing when to nap and providing yourself with a suitable napping environment will produce the greatest benefits. 36 Take a nap if you’re experiencing new tiredness, if
you’re about to experience sleep loss, such as a long travel day or workday or if you want to make naps a part of your daily routine. Here are four tips to make your naps more effective:
Set aside a certain amount of time. If you wake up feeling groggy (昏沉) after a nap, you’re sleeping too long. 37
Plan to take naps in the afternoon. 38 This is because you’re likely to experience a lower level of sleepiness following lunch. You’re also more likely to avoid interference (打扰) with nighttime sleep if you nap around this time. However, some people may adjust their napping time to fit their work or school schedules.
Create a quiet environment. Some people struggle to sleep during the day, but there are
measures you can take to help become more relaxed. Turning off any screens, such as your phone, will make you avoid interference. 39 Adjusting the room temperature to what is
comfortable for you also can make your space more comfortable.
40 Allowing yourself enough time to wake up before continuing activities after your nap is important, as you may feel groggy.
A ．Give yourself time to wake up.
B ．The best time to nap is around 2 p.m. or 3 p.m.
C ．A physical exam or sleep study may be necessary.
D ．Talk with your health care team if you nap too much.
E ．The proper nap length is between 15 and 30 minutes.
F ．Find a quiet space with little light to improve your naps.
G ．There are certain times when a nap may be more beneficial to your health.

When Jessica Watkins was seven years old, she told her parents she wanted to become an astronaut. They smiled, 56 (encourage) by her determination, but thought it was just a
child’s dream. Twenty years later, Watkins proved them wrong.
Growing up in a small town, she had limited access 57 science museums or space camps. Yet she never gave up. Every night, she would study under the dim light, 58
(complete) her homework before helping her younger siblings.
Her hard work paid off. She earned a scholarship to a top university, 59 she studied geology. After graduation, she applied to NASA’s astronaut program — twice. The first time, she was turned 60 . But she didn’t let failure define her. She gained more experience, earned a doctorate, and applied again.
In 2026, Watkins finally received 61 call she had been waiting for. She was selected as one of twelve 62 (candidate) for the Mars mission training program. When asked about her journey, she said, “Success is not about never 63 (fall). It’s about getting up one more time than you fall.”
Her story 64 (share) widely on social media, inspiring millions of young people.
Today, she serves as a powerful reminder that with persistence, even the 65 (far) dreams can become reality.

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。
In my free time, I like hiking challenges. It’s how I feed myself, physically, mentally, spiritually.
I looked over at my husband, Mike, and friends Emily and Jean, who’d joined me on this climb to the top of Nippletop Mountains. They were all fit, experienced hikers, though not as
enthusiastic about it as me, Mike especially. He’s more of a tech guy.
We’d set offin the morning, dressed in layers against coldness. It took us just less than five hours to cover the five miles to the peak of Nippletop, with more snow and ice on the rocky trail the closer we got to the top. It was almost 1:30 pm now. We started to head down soon before it
got dark.
A friendly young hiker waved to us. “Hey, want me to take your picture ”
“Absolutely!”
Mike gave the hiker his phone. That hiker snapped a few pictures for us.
We continued. I said, “I want to take a different trail so as to save time. It’s steeper (陡峭)
but shorter.”
I led the way. They followed me with some distance apart. Carefully I sidestepped down
the slope. A quarter mile down, I stopped and looked up the trail for the others. I couldn’t see
them. Then a scream broke the quietness. Mike! He sprawled (瘫坐) on a steep, narrow, wooded part of the trail, about 100 feet ahead of me. Ice everywhere. His hands were holding his right leg tightly.

I shouted, “What happened ”
“I slipped on the ice,” he said. “Then I heard this crack. It hurts badly!”
Moments later, we got to Mike. “What should we do ” I asked. Jean checked Mike’s ankle. “We need to splint (夹板) it,” she said.
We fixed a hiking pole to Mike’s leg. What now There was no way the three of us women could carry him down this mountain.
I pulled out my cell phone and called 911. Nothing. No signal. It was the same with the other three phones.
”Can I help ” It was the guy who’d taken our picture at the mountain top.

M: I’d say the biggest issue was the risk of buying large quantities of materials to be more
cost-efficient. We had to be confident that people would like and buy our products, so we ran online surveys among our early followers to get a better sense of what they wanted.
W: You’ve gained lots of publicity through celebrities and influencers, ranging from NBA athletes to singers. How did you go about creating such a wide base

29 ．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Unexpectedly, however, federal officials turned down the
request flatly. They cited laws that ban the use of cetaceans for entertainment, arguing that
relocating the whales would only keep them confined (受限) in tanks, which went against the
spirit of the law.(然而，出乎意料的是，联邦官员断然拒绝了这一请求。他们援引了禁止将鲸类用于娱乐的法律，认为转移这些鲸鱼只会让它们继续被关在水箱里，这违反了法律精神)”可知，政府拒绝申请是因为此举与相关法律精神相悖。故选 A 项。
30 ．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Once kept for human amusement, these belugas now face
being forgotten — a tragic “selective abandonment,” unlike well-known species that draw public concern.(这些白鲸曾经被圈养供人类娱乐，现在却面临被遗忘的命运——这是一种悲惨的 “selective abandonment” ，不像那些备受公众关注的知名物种”可知，这些白鲸被人遗忘，而另一些知名物种却能获得公众关注，二者形成对比，因此该短语指人们只关心部分动物，却忽视另一些动物。故选 C 项。
31 ．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“Above all, their suffering reveals a painful
答案第 5 页，共 13 页
truth: humans often use animals for pleasure and profit, only to cast them aside when they are no
longer useful. In fact, protecting animals means keeping our promise to care for those we have
taken in, especially when they are at their most vulnerable.(最重要的是，它们的遭遇揭示了一个
残酷的真相：人类常为娱乐和利益利用动物，无用时便将其抛弃。事实上，保护动物意味着信守承诺，照顾我们收养的动物，尤其是在它们最脆弱的时候。)”可知，作者核心想传达人类必须为自己所利用的动物承担责任。故选 B 项。
32 ．B 33 ．C 34 ．D 35 ．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了数字阅读对深度阅读习惯的破坏性影响，以及深度阅读在文明和人类发展中的重要性。
32 ．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Digital reading appears to be destroying habits of “deep
reading” . (数字阅读似乎正在破坏“深度阅读” 的习惯。)”和“The digital field may promote more reading than ever in history, but it also offers many temptations to read in a superficial and
scattered (零散的) manner — or even not to read at all. This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.(数字领域可能比历史上任何时候都促进了更多的阅读，但它也提供了许多诱惑，以肤浅和分散的方式阅读——甚至根本不阅读。这越来越危及更高水平的阅读。)”可知，数字阅读削弱了深度阅读的实践。故选 B 项。
33 ．推理判断题。根据第二段中“As the Ljubljana Manifesto notes, “as much as one-third of
Europeans struggle even with lower-level reading skills.” More than one-fifth of adults in the US “fall into the illiterate/functionally illiterate category” . Separately, post-pandemic reading scores
for American 13-year-olds are the lowest in decades. And the Washington-based Center for
Global Development recently estimated that literacy in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa among those with five years of schooling has decreased by 10% this past half century. (正如《卢布尔雅那宣言》所指出的，“ 多达三分之一的欧洲人甚至在较低水平的阅读技能上挣扎。”超过五分之一的美国成年人“属于文盲/功能性文盲” 。另外，大流行后美国 13 岁儿童的阅读分数是几十年来最低的。总部位于华盛顿的全球发展中心(Center for Global Development)最近估计，在过去的半个世纪里，南亚和撒哈拉以南非洲地区接受过 5 年教育的儿童的识字率下降了 10% 。)”可知，这些数字展示了目前读写能力的状况不容乐观。故选 C 项。
34 ．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Experts in the Ljubljana Manifesto record the demerits of digital reading: “Recent studies of various kinds indicate a decline of critical and conscious
reading, slow reading, non-strategic reading and long-form reading.” (《卢布尔雅那宣言》的专
答案第 6 页，共 13 页
家们记录了数字阅读的 demerits：“最近各种各样的研究表明，批判性阅读、有意识阅读、慢读、非战略性阅读和长篇阅读的数量正在下降。”)”中“a decline of critical and conscious
reading, slow reading, non-strategic reading and long-form reading”可知，这些都是数字阅读盛行带来的问题和弊端，所以划线词 demerits 与 drawbacks 同义，意为“缺点，弊端 ”。故选 D项。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“In short, as professors from Northwestern University foresaw in 2005, we are returning to the days when only an elite (精英) “reading class” consumes long texts, which is worrying. (简而言之，正如西北大学的教授们在 2005 年所预见的那样，我们正在回到只有精英“ 阅读阶层”才会阅读长文本的时代，这令人担忧。)”可知，文章最后表达了作者对现状的担忧，害怕我们会回到只有精英“ 阅读阶层”才会阅读长文本的时代。由此推知， 作者接下来可能会就如何练习深度阅读给出具体的建议。故选 D 项。

67 ．My words came out in a rush. “Yes, please! Mike needs help. He fell on the ice and hurt his ankle. We don’t have any phone signal to call for help. We tried all our phones but couldn’t get a connection.” The hiker nodded. “I’ll go down and call 911. Don’t worry. I’ll be back with help.”
