Growing up in Ghana, Kofi was fascinated by Chinese movies like Journey to the West, which sparked his curiosity about Chinese language and culture. Determined to understand more, he enrolled in a Chinese studies program at a top university in Ghana in 2017.

The beginning was challenging. The unfamiliar characters, tones, and grammar made him consider quitting after his very first lesson. Fortunately, his Chinese teacher offered consistent encouragement and even invited him to spend a vacation fully engaged in language practice. It was then that he received his Chinese name, Wang Chenggong, meaning “King of Success”.

To deepen his cultural understanding, Kofi volunteered at the Confucius Institute, where he learned calligraphy, paper-cutting, and dragon dance. His efforts were recognized with several awards. In 2019, he was elected president of his university's Chinese Students Association and later won the national Chinese Bridge competition, which earned him a scholarship to study in China. Although the pandemic delayed his plans, he persisted, working as a teaching assistant and volunteer Chinese teacher in Ghana.

Finally, in September 2023, Kofi arrived in China. Beyond the language and culture he had long studied, he experienced firsthand the realities of Chinese-style modernization: efficient high-speed railways, mobile payment systems, and Al-enabled services. What struck him most was the sense of safety-leaving his laptop in the library or forgetting his diary on the subway never led to loss,thanks to the honest and systemic socialorder.

Reflecting on his journey, Kofi often says, “Wo de ren sheng yin zhong wen er mei li"-"Mylife is beautiful because of Chinese." From movie-inspired curiosity to life-changing cross-cultural immersion、hisstoryillustrateshowpassionandperseverancecan bridgecontinentsandcreatenew beginnings.

24.What initially motivated Kofi to learnChinese?

A.A scholarship to studyin China.B. Encouragement from hisfamily.

C. Awards from theConfucius Institute.D. Chinese movies he watched inchildhood.

25.What does Kofi's experience in paragraph 2 mainlyshow?

A.Thevalue of a teacher5ssupport.B. The importance of a Chinese name.

C. Thechallenges of adifferent culture.D. The difficulty of learning a language.

26.What left the deepest impression on Kofi after he arrived inChina?

A.Thesmoothhigh-speed trains.B. The convenience of payment.

C. Thesecurity of modernChinese society.D. Services powered by artificial intelligence.

27.What does the underlined word cimmersion"in the last paragraphmean?

A.Planning.B.Mobility.C. Safety.D. Involvement.

Have you ever been in mid-conversation with someone, when you look over and find them standing in exactly the same pose as you, or holding the same facial expression? It may seem like they have consciously copied you, but it is more likely that this is the chameleon（变色龙）effect at play. The chameleon effect is the non-conscious mirror of another person's gestures or mannerisms.

The chameleon effect was demonstrated in an experiment by psychologists John Bargh and Tanya Chartrand. The first part included 78 people, each speaking with an experimenter for 10 minutes. Bargh and Chartrand studied whether participants would mimic（ 模 仿 ）the actions of someone they hadn5t met before-such as touching the face and moving a foot. When these gestures were performed by the experimenter, participants increased face touching by 20% and foot movement by 50%. The mimicry was unconscious. The second part involved half of the participants being mimicked by an experimenter. The results showed that those who were mimicked rated the experimenter more favorably.

Why do we do it? To understand the empathetic theory, think about how you would respond if your close friend tells you he has just passed an exam. If your friend tells you in an excited manner, chances are you respond in a similar tone. Another theory is an adapted survival trait. Being able to fit in with those around you may have helped when under threat. In modern life, the brain may react similarly when moving abroad or into a newgroup.

In some instances, the chameleon effect targets speech. If you spend enough time talking to someone using a particular phrase, you may unintentionally use it in your own speech. In a French interview, Joe Banton, an English football player displayed French pronunciations instead of his native Scouse accent. He later explained that he was unaware of this change at the time.

The main reasons behind social mimicry are positive. However, too much of the chameleon effect can be damaging. Some people carry this trait to the extreme, causing them to completely change in different social settings. These people can lose their sense of self One study found that most people felt they had to suppress（抑制）some aspect of their personality at work to appear professional.

28.What is the chameleon effect according to thetext?

A.Copying others'behaviorsunconsciously.B. Changing color to match the environment.

C. Revealing the true innerfeelings purposely.D. Holding the same facial expression asothers.

29.How did the participants being mimicked respond in theexperiment?

A.They becamemore self-aware.B. They lost interest in the conversation.

C. They rated theexperimenter higher.D. They tried to mimic theexperimenter.

30.Why does the author use the example of a friend sharing examresults?

A.To showthe excitement.B. To explain a survivaltrait.

C. To highlightinterpersonal bonds.D. To support the idea of empathy.

31.What does the author imply about extreme mimics in the lastparagraph?

A.They tend to change socialsettings.

B.They are more likely to beprofessional.

C.They may fell to keep their personalidentity.

D.They may ignore the positivity of socialmimicry.

A wildfire burns in the hills of a Los Angeles suburb, moving quickly from dry brush toward a cluster of homes. The landscaping at the first house catches fire, but the house itself stubbornly refuses to burn. Any small flames that start along its walls quickly die out. Surprisingly, there is no water in sight. The flames are being put out by sound waves. This type of sound-based fire control may soon play a vital role in fighting wildfires. Understanding this requires knowing fire5s nature.

The key ingredients for a fire are heat, fuel, and oxygen. Remove any one, and the fire stops. Sound waves can stop a fire by pushing oxygen molecules away from the fuel, preventing the fire from getting the air it needs to continue its burning reaction. Geoff Bruder, an engineer who previously researched energy at NASA, co-founded Sonic Fire Tech (Sonic for short) to build a machine for this purpose.

He explains that the device vibrates the oxygen faster than the fuel can use it, which effectively blocks the chemical reaction. The company has successfully demonstrated fire control from distances up to 25 feet away. Using sound waves to fight fires isn't a brand-new concept. US research agencies and universities have studied the method for over a decade. However, Albert Simeoni, a fire protection expert, points out the real challenge: scaling up the technology without creating damaging sound effects. Sonic solves this challenge by using infrasound(}^^). Unlike previous efforts using 30-60 hertz waves, Sonic stays at or below 20 hertz. Therefore, these waves are inaudible(听不见的)to people and travel farther than higher-frequency waves.

This technology is practical because homes often catch fire from embers entering roof openings. Sonic5s system uses a device powered by an electric motor to create sound waves, which travel through metal pipes installed on the roof and under its edges. The system activates automatically when sensors detect a flame, creating a kind of force field of infrasound to stop it. Experts note that sound waves generally work best on small flames. Nevertheless, homeowners and public-service companies are eager to try it. Sonic is working with two California companies to demonstrate its technology, and aims to have 50 pilot installations by early 2026.

32.How did the author introduce the topic in paragraph1?

A.By describingascene.B. By listing numbers.

C. By makinga comparison.D. By introducing a concept.

33.What is the key to sound waves putting out a fire according to thetext?

A.Removing the burning materialphysically.

B.Keeping oxygen away from the burningfuel.

C.Reducing the surrounding temperaturerapidly.

D.Lowering the temperature of the flamesdirectly.

34.What can be inferred about Sonic Fire Tech's use ofinfrasound?

A.It pioneers the use of sound to fightfires.

B.It is designed to produce audible firealarms.

C.It significantly lowers the cost offirefighting.

D.It fixes a key problem in earlier soundmethods.

35.What is the main idea of thetext?

A.The growing threat of wildfires in thesuburbs.

B.An innovative sound technology forfirefighting.

C.The science behind putting out fires withsound.

D.A comparison between sound and water for firecontrol.

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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

FOBO is short for "Tear of a Better Option^^. We live in a world of overwhelming（过多的）

choices. 36Even the decisions that used to be simple, like choosing a restaurant or making everyday purchasing, are now filled with comparisons because of it.

When you can't make decisions with certainty, you waste precious time and energy. Luckily, there are ways to overcome FOBO.37This will determine your decision-making strategy.

When it comes down to it, you only really face three types of decisions in life: no-stakes, low-stakes and high-stakes.

Lefs start with no-stakes decisions.38A good example of this is choosing what to watch on TV. With thousands of shows, it is easy to get confused. However, no matter what you pick, there is no consequences. The key is to outsource them to the universe. For instance, you can narrow your choicesto just two and then flip（抛）the coin.

Then come the low-stakes decisions. These have risks, but none are earth-shattering, and there

are plenty of acceptable outcomes. Many routine things at work, like purchasing a printer, or booking a hotel, are classically low-stakesin nature.39Set some basic criteria, select someone to present a suggestion, and take hisadvice.

40_Thesearethingslike"whichhouseshould I buy" or "whichjobshouldI accept”

Since the stakes are high and there are long-term effects, you absolutely want to get it right. Start by picking out a front-runner, and then compare each of your options with the front-runner, one by one. Each time, choose the better of the two and abandon the other one. Now repeat the process until you get down to one final choice.

A.These are minor details oflife.

B.Here is the tip to avoidFOBO.

C.This time you outsource to aperson.

D.You first have to think about thestakes.

E.Technology has only made the problem morecomplicated.

F.Now you have the space and time to handle high-stakesdecisions.

G.Your personal and professional life will be negativelyinfluenced.

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。

Gerard worked as a mail sorter in the post office. It was an ordinary job, dull enough to make his enthusiasm fade away. However, there was always a way for him to find his passion back-play alittle magic with a goldcoin.

One day, Gerard was doing his routine work skillfully and responsibly, reading the addresses on the letters and placing them into specific boxes. After hours-long work, he got tired and settled back in his seat to have a rest. His hand reached for the coin habitually, which he put in his inner pocket. The coin immediately transported Gerard back to his innocent and sunny childhood, when he stood right in front of a legendary magician. And the old man's words were still ringing in his ears:

You see this coin I have here? Don 7 blink!

Now I'm sure you thought the coin was in this hand. Well, you would be right.

I have always found the most exciting trick is about finding magic in the least likely place. Well, there you go, Gerard.

You can keep that coin.

Keep it safe.

Maybe one day there yvill be a time -when you can create a little magic of your own on the stage.

How he wished that he were such a great magician like the old man! Gerard was so caught up in the memories that he tossed the coin unthinkingly, which flew out and was nowhere to be seen. All the scenes were witnessed by a little girl and she found the gold coin swiftly, but she just held andappreciated it herself. Aware of her reluctance and unwillingness to return the coin, Gerard offered to perform magic for her. The small girl handed it to Gerard, excitedly waiting for his tricks.

The little lady was awed that the coin disappeared mysteriously and appeared from the leastlikely places even though she didn't blink at all. Secretly, a seed was planted in her heart and she stretched out her hands in the hope of keeping the coin and creating her little magic.

注意： 

(1)续写词数应为150左右；

(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1: Looking at the small hands, Gerard &lt hesitant.
