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

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds profound promise to transform education, from personalizing learning to boosting teaching efficiency. Yet even as a growing number of educators embrace its potential, it raises critical ethical concerns and requires conscious, responsible adoption. Below is a quick overview of these key concerns, rooted in real-world AI integration in today’s classrooms.

To guide the systematic integration of AI, institutions worldwide have been developing policies tailored to their unique needs, outlining best practices for its application in educational settings.

As we continue to monitor AI’s evolving role in education, navigating through the challenges of its integration remains a top priority. UNESCO, a leading international organization, emphasizes that sound AI education policy requires global educational communities to truly understand the nature, functions and potential of AI before its further promotion. Premature policy-making without this foundation risks ineffectiveness.

21. What’s the gap in “Concern 4” from 2024 to 2025?

A. 3%.

B. 8%.

C. 61%.

D. 74%.

22. Which country’s policy addresses “Concern 1”?

A. The United States.

B. Australia.

C. Canada.

D. China.

23. According to UNESCO, what should AI education policy stress?

A. Basic understanding.

B. Global cooperation.

C. Commercial promotion.

D. Initial effectiveness.

B

I first encountered the classics at 19, when I studied English literature at university. But a lack of life experience, combined with exams, essay deadlines and an obsession with good grades, left me little time to truly sink in. Middlemarch, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Pride and Prejudice, Madame Bovary: 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 colleague 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 parallels 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 the 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 endure 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 is implied about the first encounter with classics?

A. It was mainly for academic success.

B. It enriched the author’s experience.

C. It proved too difficult for the author.

D. It failed to obtain full appreciation.

25. What does the underlined word “intrigued” in paragraph 2 mean?

A. Hesitant.

B. Interested.

C. Refreshed.

D. Overwhelmed.

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 enduring 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

Between Durban and Pietermaritzburg in South Africa, a 55-mile Comrades Marathon is unfolding with nine medals, each tied to a strict time limit. Hundreds of runners may fall short even after giving their all, yet they remain excited, proud, and eager to return next year.

This scene stands as the most authentic reflection of the “paradox (悖论) of effort”. First coined by University of Toronto psychologist Michael Inzlicht, the concept refers to a seemingly contradictory human tendency that we often pursue things not for ease, but precisely because their difficulty draws us in.

Inzlicht and his team credit this persistence to two main factors: first, rewards are more valued because of the effort put in; second, effort itself functions as its own reward. When we invest heavily in something without getting equal returns, we tend to convince ourselves that “the result is worth it.” Over time, like Pavlov’s dogs responding to a bell, we gradually relate effort to positive outcomes.

A new study published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General in 2025 further uncovered the mystery of the paradox of effort. When considering the future, participants assigned greater value to cash than to mugs (马克杯) that required climbing stairs to obtain, but after actually completing the stair-climbing task, they raised the value of the mugs due to the effort invested. Behind this hides a general principle of timing: future effort takes the shine off the appeal, but past effort gives a brilliance to perceived value.

The shift in value perception, however, relies on a critical balance between “within reach” and “out of sight”. While people like something more as it gets more challenging, this appeal fades when it becomes overly difficult. That’s why the marathon has different medals: everyone needs a goal that feels possible with a little extra effort.

The paradox of effort never encourages blind suffering; instead, true value often emerges from those “optimal challenges”. Neither should you shy away from toil and trouble, nor should you chase hardship for hardship’s sake. Just as Inzlicht said, “It’s the struggle within the right bounds that fulfills your life and brings lasting happiness.”

28. What does the Comrades Marathon suggest?

A. Failure can be a source of pride.

B. Strict rules boost participants’ passion.

C. Difficulty can be a motivator.

D. Physical endurance ensures final success.

29. Which of the following best reflects the factors behind the “paradox of effort”?

A. A chef uses pre-made meals for instant profits.

B. A researcher abandons project despite potential gains.

C. A shopper values self-crafted items over finished ones.

D. A student jumps to quick conclusions without thinking.

30. What does the 2025 study show about the “paradox of effort”?

A. Future task elevates financial appeal.

B. Stair-climbing devalues invested effort.

C. Past effort reduces mug’s value.

D. Effort shifts perception of its value.

31. What does Inzlicht advise about effort?

A. Seek maximum difficulty.

B. Bear unnecessary hardship.

C. Embrace attainable challenge.

D. Pursue effortless happiness.

D

Sunscreen is a literal lifesaver for humans, protecting us from dangerous ultraviolet (UV) rays (紫外线) and skin cancer. However, the same cannot be said for its effects on marine life. Every year, thousands of tons of commercial sunscreens wash off swimmers and wind up in the planet’s oceans. Studies indicate that the chemicals from commercial sunscreens can cause pollution and lead to coral bleaching, threatening marine habitat.

Drawing inspiration from nature, material scientists at Nanyang Technological University have developed the world’s first pollen-based sunscreen to address this critical issue. Pollen (花粉) grains have evolved strong outer layers that safeguard their internal components against unfavorable environmental conditions, including intense UV rays. Crucially, this natural protective characteristic remains effective during extraction, positioning pollen as a safer, eco-conscious sunscreen alternative.

Unlike commercial sunscreens that rely on harmful chemicals, the pollen-based sunscreen adopts a gentle, eco-friendly production process, using pollen’s naturally tough shell to form a lightweight natural microgel (微凝胶) that acts as a UV barrier. Laboratory tests confirm it achieves a sun protection factor (SPF) of about 30, blocking approximately 97% of UV rays. This matches the protection level of commercial alternatives, while being far gentler for sensitive skin.

Beyond its eco-friendliness, the pollen sunscreen offers cooling benefits even during peak UV hours (10 a.m. — 4 p.m.). In tests, skin treated with the pollen sunscreen stayed up to 5℃ cooler for as long as 20 minutes under intense UV radiation of 3200 μW/cm2, a level typical of midday summer sunlight. This cooling effect stems from pollen’s natural trait of absorbing less heat, which addresses the overheating discomfort common with regular sunscreens.

Despite its advantages and UV protection meeting commercial standards, the product remains unavailable to consumers. As Cho Nam-Joon, the study’s leading author, emphasized, “Official approvals and additional tests on its sustained reliability under various storage conditions are necessary before market launch.” This required process delays its arrival on store shelves, even as the pollen-based sunscreen shows great potential for reducing chemical pollution and protecting both human health and marine life.

32. What is the problem with commercial sunscreen?

A. The risk of skin cancer.

B. The inefficiency of UV protection.

C. The difficulty in washing off.

D. The threat to marine ecosystems.

33. What distinguishes the pollen-based sunscreen?

A. Its high SPF value.

B. Its natural ingredients.

C. Its marine-based components.

D. Its skin-repair ability.

34. How does the author explain the cooling effect of the pollen sunscreen?

A. By providing statistics.

B. By designing a test.

C. By making comparisons.

D. By describing a process.

35. What is the focus of the last paragraph regarding the pollen sunscreen?

A. Procedures of its official approval.

B. Outlook for its market performance.

C. Factors for its delayed launch.

D. Significance of its reliability tests.

The number of cars on UK roads is growing. Finding places for people to park their vehicles is often difficult. Problems include old, narrow roads with no parking bays; the increasing size of cars such as SUVs (cars that are generally bigger and taller than a standard car); and families often having more than one vehicle. _36_ Therefore, some people have turned to parking their cars on the pavement (人行道).

_37_ It is designed as a dedicated zone for pedestrians (行人), allowing individuals to travel to school, work, or shops. Is it ever OK to park on a pavement?

Some think people need cars and they have to park somewhere. It would be great if everyone could travel by public transport but that isn’t always practical. _38_ For most people, a monthly season ticket to a major city can cost hundreds of pounds.

Others argue parking on the pavement is not fair. It means people might have to walk out into busy roads to get past. _39_ For people with disabilities or blindness, this risk is even greater.

In fact, parking on pavements is simply not acceptable as it prioritizes driver convenience over pedestrian safety. The long-term solution lies with urban designers. Increasing the supply of parking must be a top priority for them. _40_ Additionally, improving reliable and affordable public transport would reduce our reliance on cars. Our streets need to be designed for everyone, not just for vehicles.

A. This can probably cause accidents.

B. Safety is the main concern for this.

C. The issues have made finding somewhere to park a car tricky.

D. They should make proper schedules to limit pavement parking.

E. For example, they must invest in building more multi-storey car parks.

F. The primary function of a pavement is to provide a safe path for people.

G. Lots of places aren’t served by public transport and fares can be quite expensive.

Jane was busy in the kitchen, stirring eggs for her annual “Pancake Day” party. It was a tradition she had held for ten years — a casual get-together with friends, simple food, and lots of laughter. However, this year, things felt different.

Her daughter, Liz, walked in, looking hesitant. “Mum,” she said. “I know you haven’t seen the guest list, but our new neighbor, Marjory, is holding a huge party tonight, too.” Marjory had just moved into the big house next door. “It’s a French-themed fancy party,” Liz explained. “She has hired professional caterers (餐饮服务), and she’s even prepared a colorful piñata (彩罐) and a collection of sparkling masks. She wants to make a big impression on the village.”

Jane felt a wave of anxiety. “So, she’s trying to steal my guests?” Jane tried to sound lighthearted, but she was worried. Would her friends prefer Marjory’s luxury event to her simple pancakes?

The evening arrived. To Jane’s surprise and relief, the doorbell rang. Bob and other familiar friends flooded in, filling the kitchen with chatter. “We dropped in on the big house first,” Bob explained, grabbing a warm pancake. “But it was a disaster. The caterers didn’t turn up!” Bob continued, laughing, “The house was huge but empty. Marjory was standing there in a fancy purple dress, looking panic-stricken. So we made our excuses and came here. Your pancakes are much better anyway!”

Jane smiled, feeling a weight lift off her shoulders. Her tradition was safe. The kitchen was warm and lively, a stark contrast to the silence next door. Curious, Jane glanced out the kitchen window, which faced Marjory’s dining room. Through the glass, the scene was heartbreakingly clear. Marjory was sitting all alone at a long table set for twenty people. Her shoulders were shaking, and she was burying her face in her hands, surrounded by untouched decorations.

Bob followed Jane’s gaze and shook his head. “Well, that’s depressing,” he said, reaching for the switch of the window blind. “Let’s just close this so we don’t have to look at it and ruin our mood.”

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

But suddenly, Jane stopped him. ____

The Sound of Raindrops

One of the most beautiful sounds in life is the gentle sound of raindrops falling on the roof. It always brings me peace and comfort. 

I remember walking home from school on a rainy afternoon. The soft tapping on my umbrella made me feel calm, as if the world had slowed down. This simple sound reminds me to enjoy quiet moments and appreciate nature’s rhythm. Even now, when I feel stressed, listening to the rain helps me relax and think clearly. 

In short, this natural melody teaches me to find beauty in small things. (94 words)

 Beautiful Sound of Life: Dawn Bird songs

To me, the singing of birds in the city park at dawn is the most beautiful sound of the life.

As the sun peeks over the buildings, the birds’ clear, lively notes ring out, mixing with the fresh morning air. Unlike the noisy traffic later, this sound is pure and calming. It reminds me that even in a busy urban life, nature’s beauty still lingers. It cases my study stress and fills me with hope, making every new day feel warm and promising.

This simple yet lovely sound touches my heart deeply with its quiet charm. (96 words)

读后续写

Version 1:

   But suddenly, Jane stopped him. “Don’t close it,” she said softly. She could see how sad Marjory looked, and she knew that no one should spend such an evening alone. Without hesitation, Jane walked to the door, crossed the yard, and knocked gently. When Marjory opened the door with red eyes, Jane smiled and said, “We’d love to have you join us. Our party is small, but it’s full of warmth.” It was clear that Marjory didn’t expect this kindness, but she nodded slowly.  (79 words)

   Ten minutes later, Marjory arrived, carrying a big bag. She brought her masks and decorations, which made the kitchen look even more colorful. Everyone welcomed her, and soon she was laughing — a sound that hadn’t been heard in her house all night. As she ate her first pancake, she whispered, “Thank you for saving my night.” Jane realized that a simple act of kindness could mean more than any fancy party, which was something her heart would never forget. (71 words)

Version 2:

   But suddenly, Jane stopped him. “Don’t,” she said softly but firmly. The heartbreaking image of Marjory sitting amidst a ruined celebration while they feasted instantly erased her earlier jealousy. It wasn’t a competition anymore; it was just a neighbor in need of kindness. Turning to her daughter, Jane said, “Liz, please go and tell Marjory she is welcome here --- no, insist that she come.” The room fell silent as the guests realized their earlier insensitivity. Bob dropped his hand, looking ashamed, while others nodded in agreement, their chatter replaced by a warm sense of shared purpose. (92 words)

   Ten minutes later, Marjory arrived, carrying a big bag. She stood hesitantly in the doorway, her glittering purple gown looking comically out of place in the flour-dusted kitchen. Jane stopped forward to bridge the gap, welcoming her with a beaming smile. Relaxing visibly, Marjory opened her sack to reveal the colorful pinata and sparkly masks, which were quickly distributed among the cheering guests. The evening transformed into a delightful blend of extravagance and cozy pancake traditions, proving that shared company mattered far more than perfect catering. (77 words)

33.B 细节理解题。根据第二段“positioning pollen as a safer, eco-conscious sunscreen alternative”以及第三段“Unlike commercial sunscreens that rely on harmful chemicals, the pollen-based sunscreen adopts a gentle, eco-friendly production process , using pollen’s naturally tough shell to form a lightweight natural microgel”可知，这款微凝胶与传统 防晒霜的核心区别在于，它以天然花粉为原料，而非化学物质，故选B项。

34.A 写作手法题。根据第四段“stayedupto5℃coolerforaslongas20minutes under intense UV radiation of 3200 μ W/cm2”可知，作者通过列出具体的统计数据（降温幅度、持续时间、紫外线强度）来说明花粉防晒霜的降温效果。故选A。 35.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Despite its advantages and UV protection meeting commercial standards, the product remains unavailable to approvals and additional tests on its sustained reliability under various storage conditions are necessary before market launch”可知，该段核心围绕花粉防晒霜当前未上市的关键原因展开，故选C项。

七选五

36.C 上文列举了停车难的具体问题（道路老旧狭窄、汽车尺寸增人、家庭多辆车），下文指出因此有人将车 停在人行道上。C项“这些问题使得找到停车位变得棘手”自然承接上文问题并引出下文结果。

W: Oh no! Are you sure you didn’t leave it in your car? You mentioned you were finishing the slides there this morning.

W: Good morning listeners. Welcome to “Creative Voices.” I’m Chloe. Today we’re joined by Jeremy Lee, whose new photo exhibition has drawn wide praise and recognition. Jeremy, you’ve long been known as a writer why turn to photography now?

M: Hi, Chloe. Writing will always be part of me, but I started feeling that words sometimes stand between the viewer and the moment. With a camera, I can let people see life directly. Last winter, I spent weeks walking among city streets and buildings at dawn, seeing bakers baking, teachers teaching students. These aren’t dramatic scenes or famous cultural events, but they’re full of humanity.

W: Did you ask people to pose for you?

M: Rarely. Most shots were unplanned. I believe true stories happen when people aren’t performing. For example, my favorite photo is of a street musician who didn’t notice the camera while playing his violin in the rain.

W: What do yon hope viewers take away?

M: That common individuals matter. Many told me they saw their parents or neighbors in the photos. That’s the power of photography --- it invites you to feel first, then understand.

The Post-it Note, a widely used office product, has an interesting origin. In 1968, 3M scientist Spencer Silver aimed to create a super-strong sticky material that could attach firmly to any surface. However, the result was surprisingly weak --- it could stick to objects but peel off easily without leaving marks, and Silver put the unused invention aside. Six years later, a fellow 3M employee Arthur Fry struggled with paper notes falling out of his books. He recalled Silver’s weak sticky liquid coated small paper pieces with it, and found it worked perfectly --- no damage to pages. The pair teamed up, and 3M named the product “Post-it Note” through an internal contest. Officially launched in 1977, initial sales were slow as people saw no need for it. 3M then distributed free samples to U. S. office workers, and demand skyrocketed. Today, sold in over 100 countries, it proves “failed” experiments and daily problems can lead to life-changing inventions.
