Debra Dolan was 21 and on her first trip alone when she first sent a postcard to herself. It was 1979, and Dolan, who grew up in central Canada, was visiting Vancouver for the first time. She was immediately blown away by the city’s beauty.
Although she was usually an enthusiastic diarist, Dolan was swept up in the excitement of the trip, and found she barely had a free moment. “I thought, ‘I don’t have time to write in my journal.’ And I didn’t travel with a camera,” Dolan said. “So when I went to Vancouver Island, or saw places in Vancouver, I determined, ‘I’ll just send a postcard to myself.’”
On the back of each card, Dolan wrote a paragraph or two about her impressions, thoughts and feelings, and then mailed it to her home address. Some 10 days later, Dolan returned home to a pile of postcards from herself. Receiving them, said Dolan, was “an absolute joy.”
“After I’d come to Vancouver, I realized, ‘Well, it’s easy to travel. And it’s easy to travel alone. I don’t have to be nervous about this,’” said Dolan. So she decided exploring the world was her first priority. From there, Dolan traveled on to Australia. Then she stayed on the road for months, traveling around the globe and writing postcards to herself.
Over about forty years, 64-year-old Dolan has sent hundreds of postcards to herself from trips across the world. Amazingly, they’ve all arrived. “They really tell me about—not only where I’ve been, but who I was that day,” said Dolan, who said looking over the postcard collection inspired her to reflect on “the experiences I’ve been able to have.”
For Dolan, the postcards to herself capture (捕捉) a moment and help enjoy it. “Those special moments in your life are uniquely yours. We may all see the same thing on our travels. But our experience of that day is all different,” said Dolan.
4. What do the underlined words “blown away” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Surrounded. B. Attracted. C. Connected. D. Attached
5. What did Dolan decide to do when seeing Vancouver’s beauty
A. Keep a diary. B. Give up writing. C. Take some photos. D. Send herself a postcard.
6. How did the trip to Vancouver affect Dolan
A. It awakened her love for travel. B. It made her an enthusiastic diarist.
C. She was afraid of traveling alone. D. She never took a camera along.
7. What can we know from paragraph 5
A. Some postcards failed to reach Dolan. B. Dolan stopped traveling due to her old age.
C. The postcards bring Dolan many memories. D. Dolan sent others postcards across the world.

When micro-plastics end up in farm fields, the pollution can damage plant growth. But two young researchers now report that combining fungi (真菌) with certain farm wastes can partly overcome that problem.
May Shin, 20, and Jiwon Choi, 18, met in a research design class at the Fryeburg Academy, a high school in Maine. May had desired to explore how micro-plastics might affect the ecosystem. Jiwon was crazy about plants and fungi. The young scientists cooperated to test how long-lived plastics might affect farm crops.
Scientists have shown certain fungi can aid root growth and a plant’s nutrient uptake. Those organisms are named arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Certain farm wastes, like straw, can provide nutrients to plants and help stabilize their roots. Such wastes are also known as mushroom substrate (基质) and people often grow mushrooms in them.
May and Jiwon planted over 2,000 scallion (大葱) seeds in pots of soil. Half the seeds got soil polluted with micro-plastics. The rest grew in plastic-free soil. The plants then were further divided into four groups. The young scientists added AMF to the soil in one group. Another group had a top layer of mushroom substrate. A third group got both treatments. The last group got none. For three weeks, the pair tracked how many scallions sprouted (发芽) in each group and measured the plants’ height once each week.
About twice as many scallions sprouted in clean soil compared to that containing plastic bits. But among plants surviving in the polluted soil, a combination of AMF and mushroom substrate helped them out. Those getting both treatments grew 5.4 centimeters per week. That was faster than either of the treatments alone or those getting none.
Jiwon and May then looked at the plant roots with a microscope. Where AMF had been added, it grew into those roots. That increased the scallion roots’ surface area, May said, which should promote their uptake of nutrients. So “I see this project as coming up with a sustainable solution for plant growth in polluted soils,” said May.
8. Why did May and Jiwon work together
A. To see the effects of long-lived plastics on farm crops.
B. To find the relationship between plants and fungi.
C. To design a research on the growth of plants.
D To explore the way that the ecosystem works.
9. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 3
A. To prove the existence of micro-plastics. B. To compare fungi with farm wastes.
C. To tell the advantages of farm wastes. D. To provide some related information.
10. What aspect of the study is the fourth paragraph mainly about
A. Its purpose. B. Its design. C. Its findings. D. Its reasons.
11. How can AMF and mushroom substrate make plants grow faster
A. By keeping the plants more resistant to pollution. B. By allowing the plants’ deep area more freedom.
C. By making nutrients more available to the plants. D. By exposing the roots to a larger surface area.
D
With new advances in AI and autonomous driverless cars and trains, it makes sense that this mode of transportation could be expanded to buses, too. Now a full-sized autonomous bus service is up and running in Scotland. The buses began running in May, 2023, and are carrying passengers between Ferrytoll Park and the Edinburgh Park train and tram exchange. This 14-mile route is the first of its kind in the UK.
The autonomous buses are being operated by Stagecoach, the largest coach operator in the UK. While the buses are autonomous, fully self-driving vehicles are not currently permitted in the UK so a driver has to be onboard at all times.
The vehicles are required to have a safety driver to monitor the technology and a bus captain that will help passengers board and purchase tickets. The driver can take control in case of an emergency situation. And the vehicles use sensors to travel on specific routes and can reach the top speed of 50 miles per hour.
It took almost 10 years of research and development to reach this milestone, which is considered the first full-size use of autonomous buses in Europe. Scottish transport minister, Kevin Stewart, said in a press release, “It’s really exciting to see the innovative and ambitious CAVForth project take to the roads after all the hard work of the partner organizations involved in bringing this world first to Scotland.” This project was one of six to receive funding from a joint UK government and industries undertaking to speed up the commercialization of self-driving technology, reported The Guardian. The government hopes the autonomous buses will be faster and more reliable to use than conventional buses since 88% of road accidents are caused by drivers’ errors.
Other countries in Europe are exploring using driverless buses. There have already been short trials in several cities in Italy, Finland and France and there’re plans for driverless electric minibuses to be introduced in Switzerland, Germany and Norway. An autonomous bus may be just around the corner in a city near you.
12. A driver is needed in an autonomous bus to ________.
A. monitor the route B. deal with emergencies
C. direct the bus D. help passengers buy tickets
13. What does the author indicate in paragraph 4
A. It is very easy to develop the driverless buses. B. The autonomous buses won’t cause accidents.
C. Scotland becomes popular for the driverless buses. D. The UK government values the autonomous buses.
14. Which of the following can best describe the future of autonomous buses
A. Promising. B. Hopeless. C. Worrying. D. Uncertain.
15. What could be a suitable title for the text
A. Autonomous Buses Are Widely Used in the UK B. Self-driving Technology Has Been a Hit
C. Autonomous Buses Hit the Road in the UK D. Conventional Buses Are Much Safer

“She needs me.” Those were the exact words I spoke to my husband when I spotted Dottie, a little dog we found at a local shelter eight years ago.
Dottie leaned (倾斜) away when I tried to pet her and refused to let me hold her. While the other dogs jumped and barked, Dottie returned to the back of the cage, curled up in a ball, hoping us to leave her alone.
On the entire drive home Dottie was in fear. So, upon arrival at our house, we got right to work. I held her as much as possible, touching her head and softly singing in her ear. We learned that she loved belly touch, so every time we passed by, we would offer a gentle touch. Eventually, we noticed her presenting her belly as we walked by her. I knew we were making real progress when I found her quietly sleeping on a chair one day, her head resting on one of my shoes. My heart melted (融化) as I realized she had brought it there because it contained my smell, and she wanted it nearby.
Ever so slowly, our little dog came to life. She began to play with toys, enjoy walks, and rest on our laps. There was no special treatment, no fancy food or toys. All we did was love her. And she grew well. She was so broken when we first met her that we had no idea what her true personality would be. But now we found a sweet, playful, loving soul.
One day, a few years after her adoption, I was busy doing housework around the house, doing laundry and climbing the stairs from the basement up to the main floor. When I finished, I sat down and enjoyed a well-deserved break. That’s when I realized I hadn’t seen Dottie for a while. I called to her and began searching. My heart raced and my pace quickened as I began checking under beds and behind sofa.

Debra Dolan was 21 and on her first trip alone when she first sent a postcard to herself. It was 1979, and Dolan, who grew up in central Canada, was visiting Vancouver for the first time. She was immediately blown away by the city’s beauty.
Although she was usually an enthusiastic diarist, Dolan was swept up in the excitement of the trip, and found she barely had a free moment. “I thought, ‘I don’t have time to write in my journal.’ And I didn’t travel with a camera,” Dolan said. “So when I went to Vancouver Island, or saw places in Vancouver, I determined, ‘I’ll just send a postcard to myself.’”
On the back of each card, Dolan wrote a paragraph or two about her impressions, thoughts and feelings, and then mailed it to her home address. Some 10 days later, Dolan returned home to a pile of postcards from herself. Receiving them, said Dolan, was “an absolute joy.”
“After I’d come to Vancouver, I realized, ‘Well, it’s easy to travel. And it’s easy to travel alone. I don’t have to be nervous about this,’” said Dolan. So she decided exploring the world was her first priority. From there, Dolan traveled on to Australia. Then she stayed on the road for months, traveling around the globe and writing postcards to herself.
Over about forty years, 64-year-old Dolan has sent hundreds of postcards to herself from trips across the world. Amazingly, they’ve all arrived. “They really tell me about—not only where I’ve been, but who I was that day,” said Dolan, who said looking over the postcard collection inspired her to reflect on “the experiences I’ve been able to have.”
For Dolan, the postcards to herself capture (捕捉) a moment and help enjoy it. “Those special moments in your life are uniquely yours. We may all see the same thing on our travels. But our experience of that day is all different,” said Dolan.
4. What do the underlined words “blown away” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Surrounded. B. Attracted. C. Connected. D. Attached
5. What did Dolan decide to do when seeing Vancouver’s beauty
A. Keep a diary. B. Give up writing. C. Take some photos. D. Send herself a postcard.
6. How did the trip to Vancouver affect Dolan
A. It awakened her love for travel. B. It made her an enthusiastic diarist.
C. She was afraid of traveling alone. D. She never took a camera along.
7. What can we know from paragraph 5
A. Some postcards failed to reach Dolan. B. Dolan stopped traveling due to her old age.
C. The postcards bring Dolan many memories. D. Dolan sent others postcards across the world.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C

When micro-plastics end up in farm fields, the pollution can damage plant growth. But two young researchers now report that combining fungi (真菌) with certain farm wastes can partly overcome that problem.
May Shin, 20, and Jiwon Choi, 18, met in a research design class at the Fryeburg Academy, a high school in Maine. May had desired to explore how micro-plastics might affect the ecosystem. Jiwon was crazy about plants and fungi. The young scientists cooperated to test how long-lived plastics might affect farm crops.
Scientists have shown certain fungi can aid root growth and a plant’s nutrient uptake. Those organisms are named arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Certain farm wastes, like straw, can provide nutrients to plants and help stabilize their roots. Such wastes are also known as mushroom substrate (基质) and people often grow mushrooms in them.
May and Jiwon planted over 2,000 scallion (大葱) seeds in pots of soil. Half the seeds got soil polluted with micro-plastics. The rest grew in plastic-free soil. The plants then were further divided into four groups. The young scientists added AMF to the soil in one group. Another group had a top layer of mushroom substrate. A third group got both treatments. The last group got none. For three weeks, the pair tracked how many scallions sprouted (发芽) in each group and measured the plants’ height once each week.
About twice as many scallions sprouted in clean soil compared to that containing plastic bits. But among plants surviving in the polluted soil, a combination of AMF and mushroom substrate helped them out. Those getting both treatments grew 5.4 centimeters per week. That was faster than either of the treatments alone or those getting none.
Jiwon and May then looked at the plant roots with a microscope. Where AMF had been added, it grew into those roots. That increased the scallion roots’ surface area, May said, which should promote their uptake of nutrients. So “I see this project as coming up with a sustainable solution for plant growth in polluted soils,” said May.
8. Why did May and Jiwon work together
A. To see the effects of long-lived plastics on farm crops.
B. To find the relationship between plants and fungi.
C. To design a research on the growth of plants.
D. To explore the way that the ecosystem works.
9. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 3
A. To prove the existence of micro-plastics. B. To compare fungi with farm wastes.
C. To tell the advantages of farm wastes. D. To provide some related information.
10. What aspect of the study is the fourth paragraph mainly about
A. Its purpose. B. Its design. C. Its findings. D. Its reasons.
11. How can AMF and mushroom substrate make plants grow faster
A. By keeping the plants more resistant to pollution. B. By allowing the plants’ deep area more freedom.
C. By making nutrients more available to the plants. D. By exposing the roots to a larger surface area.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了当微塑料最终进入农田时，污染会损害植物生长。然而，两位年轻的研究人员现在报告说，将真菌与某些农场废物结合起来可以部分克服这个问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“May had desired to explore how micro-plastics might affect the ecosystem. Jiwon was crazy about plants and fungi. The young scientists cooperated to test how long-lived plastics might affect farm crops.”（May希望探索微塑料如何影响生态系统。Jiwon痴迷于植物和真菌。这两个年轻的科学家合作测试了塑料对农作物的长期影响。）可知，May和智元在一起工作是因为想观察长寿命的塑料制品对农作物的影响。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Scientists have shown certain fungi can aid root growth and a plant’s nutrient uptake. Those organisms are named arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Certain farm wastes, like straw, can provide nutrients to plants and help stabilize their roots. Such wastes are also known as mushroom substrate (基质) and people often grow mushrooms in them.”（科学家们已经证明，某些真菌可以帮助根系生长和植物的营养吸收。这些生物被命名为丛枝菌根真菌(AMF)。某些农场废物，如稻草，可以为植物提供营养，帮助稳定它们的根。这些废物也被称为蘑菇基质，人们经常在其中种植蘑菇。）可推知，作者写第3段的目的是提供一些相关信息。故选D项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“May and Jiwon planted over 2,000 scallion (大葱) seeds in pots of soil. Half the seeds got soil polluted with micro-plastics. The rest grew in plastic-free soil. The plants then were further divided into four groups. The young scientists added AMF to the soil in one group. Another group had a top layer of mushroom substrate. A third group got both treatments. The last group got none. For three weeks, the pair tracked how many scallions sprouted (发芽) in each group and measured the plants’ height once each week.”（May和Jiwon在花盆里种了2000多颗葱籽。一半的种子被微塑料污染了。其余的在无塑料土壤中生长。然后将这些植物进一步分为四组。年轻的科学家们在一组土壤中添加了AMF。另一组的表层是蘑菇基质。第三组同时接受两种实验方法。最后一组没有。在三周的时间里，这对科学家追踪了每一组中发芽的葱的数量，并每周测量一次植物的高度。）可推知，第四段主要讲的是研究设计方面的内容。故选B项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Jiwon and May then looked at the plant roots with a microscope. Where AMF had been added, it grew into those roots. That increased the scallion roots’ surface area, May said, which should promote their uptake of nutrients.”（Jiwon和May用显微镜观察了植物的根。在加入AMF的地方，它就会长成这些根。May说，这增加了葱根的表面积，这应该会促进它们对营养的吸收。）可知，AMF和蘑菇基质是通过将根暴露到更大的表面积从而使植物生长得更快。故选D项。
D
With new advances in AI and autonomous driverless cars and trains, it makes sense that this mode of transportation could be expanded to buses, too. Now a full-sized autonomous bus service is up and running in Scotland. The buses began running in May, 2023, and are carrying passengers between Ferrytoll Park and the Edinburgh Park train and tram exchange. This 14-mile route is the first of its kind in the UK.
The autonomous buses are being operated by Stagecoach, the largest coach operator in the UK. While the buses are autonomous, fully self-driving vehicles are not currently permitted in the UK so a driver has to be onboard at all times.
The vehicles are required to have a safety driver to monitor the technology and a bus captain that will help passengers board and purchase tickets. The driver can take control in case of an emergency situation. And the vehicles use sensors to travel on specific routes and can reach the top speed of 50 miles per hour.
It took almost 10 years of research and development to reach this milestone, which is considered the first full-size use of autonomous buses in Europe. Scottish transport minister, Kevin Stewart, said in a press release, “It’s really exciting to see the innovative and ambitious CAVForth project take to the roads after all the hard work of the partner organizations involved in bringing this world first to Scotland.” This project was one of six to receive funding from a joint UK government and industries undertaking to speed up the commercialization of self-driving technology, reported The Guardian. The government hopes the autonomous buses will be faster and more reliable to use than conventional buses since 88% of road accidents are caused by drivers’ errors.
Other countries in Europe are exploring using driverless buses. There have already been short trials in several cities in Italy, Finland and France and there’re plans for driverless electric minibuses to be introduced in Switzerland, Germany and Norway. An autonomous bus may be just around the corner in a city near you.
12. A driver is needed in an autonomous bus to ________.
A. monitor the route B. deal with emergencies
C. direct the bus D. help passengers buy tickets
13. What does the author indicate in paragraph 4
A. It is very easy to develop the driverless buses. B. The autonomous buses won’t cause accidents.
C. Scotland becomes popular for the driverless buses. D. The UK government values the autonomous buses.
14. Which of the following can best describe the future of autonomous buses
A. Promising. B. Hopeless. C. Worrying. D. Uncertain.
15. What could be a suitable title for the text
A. Autonomous Buses Are Widely Used in the UK B. Self-driving Technology Has Been a Hit
C. Autonomous Buses Hit the Road in the UK D. Conventional Buses Are Much Safer
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了位于山西省谢州的关羽庙，这是全国众多关羽庙中最大的一座，正在得到保护和研究。
【36题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：关羽庙位于中国北部山西省谢州，是全国无数供奉这位将帅的寺庙中最大的一座，也是国家级重要的历史文化保护遗址。根据one among countless temples以及空前定冠词the可推知，此处表示“最大的”一座，应用形容词最高级largest。故填largest。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：2020年，谢州成立了一个研究民间关羽信仰背后文化的研究所，并聘请了8名研究生。分析句子可知，空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词a research institute，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which或that作引导词。故填which/that。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意：今年夏天，该研究所的研究人员正在为寺庙编年史，并研究寺庙中包含的传统文化精华。根据上文提到的a research institute可知，此处特指上文的这个“研究所”，应用the定冠词修饰。故填the。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在全国范围内，保护和研究历史文化遗产的目的是发现和学习中华传统文化，这是国家建设现代中华文明的努力之一。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词中的动词不定式to do作后置定语修饰efforts，the efforts to do“做出……的努力”为惯用表达。故填to build。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：全国重点文物保护单位共计达5058处。分析句子可知，此处为固定短语in total，意为“共计，总共”，且空处位于句首，in的首字母需大写。故填In。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这些历史文化遗址见证了中华民族过去多年的悠久历史和灿烂文化，在建设现代中华文明的过程中，为我们提供了丰富的“精神养分”。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作伴随状语，witness和逻辑主语the historical and cultural sites为主动关系，所以用现在分词形式，且空处位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Witnessing。
【42题详解】
考查代词。句意：这些历史文化遗址见证了中华民族过去多年的悠久历史和灿烂文化，在建设现代中华文明的过程中，为我们提供了丰富的“精神养分”。由空前offer为谓语动词可知，此处应用代词宾格形式，构成动词短语offer sb sth“提供某物给某人”。故填us。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在山西，由于人手不足，当地的保护工作遇到了麻烦，2022年启动了一个项目，共招收600名学生，为期五年，专门为全省117个需要保护专业人员的地方招收。分析句子可知，此处为with的复合结构，动词trouble应为非谓语形式，trouble与protection work逻辑上是被动关系，所以用trouble的过去分词形式。故填troubled。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：在山西，由于人手不足，当地的保护工作遇到了麻烦，2022年启动了一个项目，共招收600名学生，为期五年，专门为全省117个需要保护专业人员的地方招收。分析句子可知，此处为副词specifically作状语，修饰后面介词短语。故填specifically。
【45题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：这些学生将在大学期间接受文物保护方面的通识教育。分析句子可知，空处为谓语动词，offer和主语students之间是被动关系，所以应用被动语态，结合空前will可知，空处应为be done形式。故填be offered。

47. 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。
“She needs me.” Those were the exact words I spoke to my husband when I spotted Dottie, a little dog we found at a local shelter eight years ago.
Dottie leaned (倾斜) away when I tried to pet her and refused to let me hold her. While the other dogs jumped and barked, Dottie returned to the back of the cage, curled up in a ball, hoping us to leave her alone.
On the entire drive home, Dottie was in fear. So, upon arrival at our house, we got right to work. I held her as much as possible, touching her head and softly singing in her ear. We learned that she loved belly touch, so every time we passed by, we would offer a gentle touch. Eventually, we noticed her presenting her belly as we walked by her. I knew we were making real progress when I found her quietly sleeping on a chair one day, her head resting on one of my shoes. My heart melted (融化) as I realized she had brought it there because it contained my smell, and she wanted it nearby.
Ever so slowly, our little dog came to life. She began to play with toys, enjoy walks, and rest on our laps. There was no special treatment, no fancy food or toys. All we did was love her. And she grew well. She was so broken when we first met her that we had no idea what her true personality would be. But now we found a sweet, playful, loving soul.
One day, a few years after her adoption, I was busy doing housework around the house, doing laundry and climbing the stairs from the basement up to the main floor. When I finished, I sat down and enjoyed a well-deserved break. That’s when I realized I hadn’t seen Dottie for a while. I called to her and began searching. My heart raced and my pace quickened as I began checking under beds and behind sofa.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, I remembered the door to the basement.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I held her in my arms tightly, telling her how sorry I was.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Suddenly, I remembered the door to the basement. I rushed downstairs, fear gripping my heart. And there she was, lying at the bottom of the stairs, her tiny body trembling. I scooped her up in my arms, her eyes filled with fright and confusion. For the next few days, Dottie was visibly shaken by the incident. She clung to me, refusing to let me out of her sight. I realized that she had developed a sense of dependency on me, relying on me not only for love and comfort, but also for her safety and security. With each passing day, her trust in me grew stronger, and she began to let go of her fears.
I held her in my arms tightly, telling her how sorry I was. In the days that followed, I showered Dottie with even more love and attention. I set up a comfortable and secure area for her in the house, making sure she had her own space where she could feel safe. I also started taking her to professional training classes to help build her confidence and trust in me. Slowly but surely, Dottie began to heal. She started venturing out of her safe space, exploring new areas of the house and even playing with toys again. Every day, she showed more signs of trust and happiness. Through this experience, I learned to appreciate the power of unconditional love and the importance of being a responsible and caring pet owner. Dottie not only brought joy and love into my life, but she also taught me valuable lessons about patience, forgiveness, and the resilience of the human-animal bond.
