BLast summer at a bookstore, my son Henry was fascinated by the cover of the first novel from Peter Brown's middle-grade trilogy （三部曲）. He then finished it in just two days. "Dad, why did The Wild Robot have to be so sad?" He tearfully asked me. The story is set on a remote island, where a robot named Roz learns to survive and communicate with the island's creatures, and becomes part of the community. For my son, it was the first book he discovered on his own; the first to impact him with the mix of tragedy （悲剧） and joy. When I finished the book, I knew why Henry loved it. In our book club discussion, he described how Brown's pictures and words had made the story feel real. When talking about its final scenes, where Roz leaves to find repairs for her injured body, Henry cried again. His previous reading experiences had cheerful, "happily-ever-after" endings, but this book introduced him to the beauty of complex emotions. I tried to explain low sadness can enhance the meaning of happy moments, but failed to fully convince him. Once our discussion ended, Henry requested to buy The Wild Robot Escapes and instantly fell in love with it. He read the first two books repeatedly, so you can imagine his excitement when we finally got a copy of The Wild Robot Protects. We both agree il is worth the wait. Roz leaves the island again to stop an underwater threat: "the poison tide. " Brown expertly balances between breathtaking adventure and unsettling ideas-not just happiness and sadness, but also, given the climate-change undercurrents, hope and despair. And, here's something special about Roz: her physical clumsiness and confusion about life, conveyed through her expressive eyes' and downturned mouth. Her story reflects the challenges of surviving in a strange place, much like a child's journey. Readers love Roz. They learn from her. Even better, they learn alongside her. Roz gave Henry the power to push through the first book's sad parts, getting him ready to appreciate that, sometimes, sadness isn't a bad thing to feel. 24. What drove the author to read The Wild Robot?A. Its tragic ending. B. Henry's tearful recommendation. C. Its attractive cover. D. Henry's emotional response to it. 25. What is one theme of The Wild Robot Protects?A. Family and community. B. Concerns of global issues. C. Exploration of the ocean. D. Man-robot relationship. 26.

Which message does this text seem to communicate?A. Misfortune inspires great literary works. B. Robot stories work like magic on children. C. Book discussions help kids survive tragedies. D. Reading literature facilitates personal growth. C When adult humans meet a baby, many can't help speaking in a higher-pitched （更高音的）, sing-songy voice. This shift, known as parentese, is not unique to humans it has also been observed in animals like monkeys and gorillas. Now, scientists are adding one more species to that list: bottlenose dolphins. Dolphins are intelligent animals that live and hunt in groups. They communicate in a unique way: every individual produces its own signature sound that acts much like an ID card, usually by its first birthday. But how does each come up with its distinctive whistle? For babies, it might have something to do with listening to Mum. To solve this mystery, researchers examined the sounds mother dolphins, make. Scientists studied 34 years' worth of recordings of sounds made by 19 female bottlenose dolphins. When the mother dolphins were near their young, they continued to make their signature sound, but at a higher frequency. They also used a wider range of frequencies than they did when their babies were not nearby. This discovery suggests that using these modifications mother dolphins assist their young in learning how to produce these calls themselves. Since dolphin babies often spend some years with their mothers before living on their own, it makes sense that this adaptation would help them learn to communicate. At the very least, the higher-pitched whistle likely gets the babies' attention. "It's important for a baby to know, "Oh, Mum's talking to me now, " says marine biologist June Mann. This kind of research could help us understand how language developed in humans. "It is absolutely essential to have basic knowledge about other species and how they communicate, " says Mann. "I would be really interested to see whether dolphins also change their sounds when interacting with babies of others, which is what happens in humans. "28. What do the underlined words "this mystery" refer to in paragraph 2?A. Why dolphins live and play in groups. B. How dolphins develop their unique sounds. C. What aspects of intelligence dolphins possess. D. Whether dolphins can use parentese like humans. 29. How did the researchers carry out their study of dolphins?A. By analyzing mother dolphins' sound features. B. By recording parent-child interaction frequency. C. By measuring the distance between parent and child. D. By examining the speech organs of mother dolphins. 30. What is a suggested reason why dolphin mothers use parentese with their young?A. To help them learn to talk. B. To teach them bunting skills. C. To express worry and care. D. To distract their attention. 31. What is the purpose of the text?A. To compare the parentese of humans and dolphins. B. To illustrate the development of dolphin intelligence. C. To share new findings about dolphin communication. D. To highlight the value of studying dolphins' language. DThere's a classic short story in which a young man travels years ahead and meets his future self. Narratives like this have always been related to science fiction. But what if you could meet your future self?I'm a psychologist and professor. My research over the past 15 years isn't far from this theme. I've largely focused on how people think about and relate to their future selves, and explored the reasons why we have such a hard time making long-terra decisions. In my research, I've learnt that we often imagine our future selves like strangers, which can impede us in making long-term choices. One way to bridge the emotional gap is to think of future selves in more concrete and vivid ways, like writing letters to and from one's future self, which can strengthen the connection between current and future selves. Admittedly, having people engage in an imagined conversation is a far cry from actually meeting one's future self. But it's believed that far richer interactions may happen in the near future through artificial intelligence （AT）. It wouldn't be predicting exactly what choices you'd make. It'd be more about showing your potential, based on the lives of people similar to you: not just one possible life for you, but rather, the most possible life path for you. Such interactions could offer valuable insights into our potential future selves. So, to return to my original question: if you could time-travel to meet your future self, what aspects of your life world you want to know more about? I realized, through thorough reflections, that the most powerful questions would be ones that helped me make better choices today - questions exploring personal growth, regrets and unfulfilled actions. Actually, you don't need to wait for time travel or advanced AI for answers that you can act on. Through my research, I've learnt that simply taking a bit of time to picture this meeting can help you make better choices now. All you need is a little imagination, and the willingness to put yourself in the shoes of a person you currently treat as a stranger. 32. Why is it difficult for people to make long-term decisions according to the author?A. Technology for time travel is not available. B. Strangers cannot help with decision-making. C. Writing letters to one's future self is impractical. D. People find it hard to connect with their distant selves. 33. What does the underlined phrase "a far cry from" mean in paragraph 3?A. contradictory toB. very different fromC. not as convenient asD. less popular than34. Which question would the author most likely ask his future self?A. Why hasn't my hard work ever paid off?B. What can AI do to help people become better persons?C. If given the chance, what would you have done differently?D. How can I succeed without going through all the difficulties in life?35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Time travel: What if you met your future self?B. My research: How do people view their future selves?C. Emotional gap: Why can't we talk with our future selves?D. Artificial intelligence: Is it possible to meet your future self?第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Physicist and Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman developed a clever learning method known as the Feynman Technique. It involves explaining what you're learning to others. By teaching what you've learned from memory, you engage in active recall. 36 It also ensures that you understand the topic, because you can only explain an idea if you truly understand it. The technique consists of four repeatable steps. To begin, choose a concept or topic you wish to fully understand. 37 The more interested you are, the faster you'll grasp it. Moreover, a personally interesting topic will keep you motivated and engaged. 38 Write notes and explain it in a way that makes sense to a five-year-old. If you'd rather avoid actually teaching someone, you can just teach it to an imaginary audience. But it works much better if you use a real person. They'll be able to let you know when something isn't clear. While leaching you may discover gaps in your understanding. 39 Review your notes, reread books, or seek external help to ensure you have a complete understanding of the context before moving forward. Now that you fully grasp the concept, test your understanding by trying to teach it to another person. This will help you identify any remaining areas of uncertainty you need to revisit. The Feynman Technique is a great way for kids and grown-ups to learn. 40 You need to actively think about the problem instead of passively reading or listening to someone else. However, with great efforts in mastering this method, you'll see your learning results improve quicker than ever before. A. It is mentally demanding. B. This helps the information stick in your mind better. C. Teach it to a five-year-old, who would give you direct feedback. D. Your curiosity about it will determine the pace of your learning. B. Once you have chosen a topic, you can teach it to someone else. F. Active engagement plays a key role in promoting deeper learning. G. When this happens, refer back to the original material for the missing pieces. 第三部分语言运用（共两节, 满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分, 满分15分）阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I was heading home after giving my colleague a lift.
