二、閱讀理解
When 17-year-old Syrian refugee Hadi Al-Masri arrived in Berlin’s Tempelhof refugee (難民) shelter in 2018, he noticed two problems: the center’s poor WiFi left 300 students unable to do online schoolwork, and piles of abandoned smartphones filled donation bins. Then he had an idea that would change his community.
Using skills learned from repairing phones in war-torn Aleppo, Hadi began resurrecting broken devices. He turned a storage closet into a “tech clinic”, replacing cracked screens with plastic cut from water bottles and teaching himself Linux to revive motherboards. Within months, 40 repaired phones were circulating among students.
But his real innovation came when he discovered the shelter’s unused satellite dish. “It looked like a giant metal flower,” Hadi recalled. From YouTube, he learned to redirect the signal. Using cable from abandoned TVs and a router (路由器) made from three damaged units, he built “NetHope” — a network that boosted WiFi coverage to 95% of the community.
The system wasn’t pretty, but it worked. Refugee children could finally attend virtual classes uninterrupted. German teachers noticed improved grades, particularly among girls who previously had to choose between studying and waiting in food lines.
Hadi’s breakthrough went viral when a visiting journalist posted photos of his setup. Tech companies sent equipment, but Hadi insisted on teaching others first. His “Build Your Own Internet” workshops now train both refugees and elderly Germans in digital literacy (素養) . “The cables connect more than devices,” he said. “They connect people who think they’re different.”
Now studying computer engineering at TU Berlin, Hadi still volunteers at the shelter every weekend. His latest project A solar-powered charging station built into an old supermarket trolley. When praised, he shrugs, “In Syria, we say necessity sharpens the mind. I just had good teachers — YouTube and desperation.”
21．What does the underlined word “resurrecting” mean in paragraph 2
A．Throwing away. B．Selling for profits.
C．Repairing and reusing. D．Collecting for future use.
22．What was probably the MOST significant result of Hadi’s “NetHope” project
A．It attracted tech companies to offer donations.
B．It made the refugee shelter famous on social media.
C．It aroused the community’s awareness of recycling and reusing.
D．Refugee children could attend online classes without interruption.
23．Why did Hadi insist on teaching others about the Internet first
A．To follow the journalist’s advice.
B．To further improve his digital literacy.
C．To bridge the digital divide among people.
D．To show off his talent in computer engineering.
24．Which of the following best describes Hadi
A．Talented but selfish. B．Brave and generous.
C．Knowledgeable but rude. D．Creative and warm-hearted.
Everywhere one enters cities, skyscrapers are being built or planned. Even Paris is getting one such high building. The French capital recently supported plans for a 180-metre-high triangular tower by Herzog & de Mcuron of Switzerland, its first in four decades.
Today, every huge global city, together with many a second or third level one, wants to put itself on the map with an iconic (標志性的) tower, or several. This creates plenty of strange shapes on the skyline. A firm of architects in Melbourne has just released plans for a 68-storey apartment and hotel block inspired by the fabric-covered dancers in a Beyonce video.
Such expressions of architectural individuality have the unexpected effect. Cities look more and more like each other. Once upon a time, Chicago and New York were modern skyscraper cities, while European capitals such as Paris and London had antique streetscapes. Now, many are turning to cities sharing one face.
This worries designers. Moshe Safdie, the architect who has designed towers in various cities, says some skyscrapers are more like giant sculptures than buildings forming parts of a public space. Many cities are filled with these boring towers intended to attract attention rather than to respond to the local setting. The best architecture is often the quietest, taking the High Line park in New York and King’s Cross station in London. You would not notice either from a distance, but they matter.
Fortunately, impressive new designs appear as a result of meeting the need of today’s clients with high taste. Take the cities’ rising forces — media and technology companies as an example. They do not appreciate those shiny tall buildings but expect something smarter. For better or worse, this is the era of tailored command, with clients controlling the design of their own towers.
25．What concerns architecture designers according to the text
A．Too many skyscrapers in cities of different levels.
B．Cities’ gradually losing their unique features.
C．Cities’ following the trend of seeking their individuality.
D．Architects’ eagerness to design skyscrapers of strange shapes.
26．Which of the following would Moshe Safdie agree with
A．City buildings are designed to draw people’s attention.
B．Meeting clients’ tailored demand really matters a great deal.
C．The best architecture is expected to exist in the quietest place.
D．Eye-catching designs need to be in harmony with local environment.
27．What’s the author’s attitude toward cities’ skyline in the future
A．Hopeful. B．Doubtful. C．Unclear. D．Disappointed.
Plastic is everywhere, but it’s not great for our health or the planet. In the past, a common box from Amazon, an online shopping platform, arrived packed with plastic air pillows (塑料充氣枕) made from flexible plastic film. When the plastic film is thrown away, it often ends up in the environment, including the oceans, where it can injure and kill marine life.
In studies of 80 marine species that died after swallowing a variety of plastic rubbish, flexible plastic proved to be the deadliest. Now Amazon announced that by October 2024, it had removed all plastic air pillows from its delivery packaging. “We want to make sure the final package is easy to recycle at home,” says Pat Lindner, Amazon’s vice president of sustainable packaging.
To make the change, the company had to make sure that a replacement would work as well as the plastic version. Amazon worked with supplies to find a lightweight, 100% recycled paper that’s easier to wrap around an object to protect it. It turned out to perform better. The number of packages that get damaged in shipment was reduced. The paper also takes up less space, so now more items fit in a smaller box. That translates to using less gas or electricity, in the case of the company’s electric vans to make a delivery.
Plastic is cheap, but the new system saves the company money since there’s less risk that something will break during shipping and need replacement, Lindner says. “And so the fact that we can deliver packages more safely and with less damage is a cost saving to us.”
It’s a welcome change following years of pressure from environmental groups to stop plastic pollution flooding into oceans. “The fact that the world’s largest e-commerce company has made plastic air pillows a thing of history is fantastic news for the world’s oceans,” the nonprofit Oceana said in a statement in response to Amazon’s announcement.
28．What is probably the biggest advantage of Amazon’s new delivery packaging
A．Its recyclability. B．Its safety. C．Its price. D．Its flexibility.
29．What can be inferred from the third paragraph
A．Plastic outperforms paper for packaging.
B．Paper is more expensive than plastic for packaging.
C．Amazon’s paper packaging is a win-win approach.
D．Amazon was the first company to use recycled paper.
30．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．Plastic air pillows will never be used again globally.
B．Amazon was forced to make the change by environment groups.
C．Large companies can significantly impact environmental progress.
D．Paper packaging will completely solve the problem of ocean pollution.
31．Which would be a suitable title for the text
A．Plastic Air Pillows: A Thing of the Past.
B．Plastic Packaging: Threat to Marine Life.
C．Amazon’s Paper Packaging: A Great Discovery.
D．Amazon’s Eco-friendly Change: Saving Costs and Oceans.
In the 1960s and 1970s, the greatest fear was that the human race, and possibly all advanced life forms on the planet, could be wiped out by nuclear missiles. 32 Scientists are thinking of ways to lower this risk, such as replacing coal and oil with forms of renewable energy. But they are also preparing for the worst: what can we do if the earth can no longer sustain us
33 The most likely choice is Mars, which is relatively close to Earth and has an environment more friendly than that of other planets. Mars has fascinated people since ancient times, and today our interest in Martian exploration is greater than ever before. Since the 1960s, we have been sending unmanned spacecraft to Mars. 34 Our robots have explored the Martian surface, testing the soil and searching for resources, water and signs of life.
However, sending people there will require all the skill, courage and intelligence of the human race. While the Moon can be reached within days, it would take months to reach Mars, travelling through dangerous solar radiation. And even if the first settlers do reach Mars safely, they may not be able to return to Earth — ever. 35 As early as the 1980s, scientists were building Biosphere 2 in the Arizona desert, consisting of a closed space in which people, animals and plants could live together. Although the two-year experiment was a failure, it did provide us with a better understanding of how humans might be able to live on another planet.
Anyway, human settlement of Mars is still decades away. In the meantime, scientific research shows that the planet Earth is getting warmer. This change is being caused by human activity and is having a terrible effect on the globe. 36
A．That definitely is a big step forward.
B．Right now, it’s the only one we have.
C．One option is to explore other planets to see if we could live on them.
D．Staying alive will be a daily challenge, but isn’t impossible, as proved by scientists.
E．Our probes have orbited the planet, sending back valuable data and stunning images.
F．Today, however, environmental problems have taken over as the greatest risk to life on Earth.
G．Until we are finally able to live on another planet, we need to take far better care of our own.

七、書面表達
73．閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一個完整的短文。
One afternoon, Tom’s father brought home five healthy Rhode Island Red chickens and presented them to Tom. “If you take good care of them,” his father explained, “I’ll buy all the eggs they lay at market price. But remember, you’re responsible for buying their feed.” Thrilled at the opportunity to earn his own money, Tom immediately agreed, his mind already racing with plans for his new “business”.
For the first few weeks, Tom was the picture of dedication. Every morning before school, he would carefully measure out the chickens’ feed — a nutritious blend of grains and seeds recommended by the local feed store. He made sure their water was always fresh and their cage clean. The chickens, well cared for, rewarded his efforts with a steady supply of eggs—four or five each day. Tom would collect them in a small basket, and his father would pay him a fair price. Proud of his earnings, Tom started dreaming bigger. He made plans for a larger cage and even researched how to raise more chickens to increase his profits.
But as the weeks passed, Tom noticed something unsettling. The number of eggs began to drop — first to three a day, then two, and sometimes even just one. Maybe the chickens were just having an off week, he thought. But when the trend continued, worry set in. He examined each chicken carefully, checking for signs of illness or stress, but they seemed perfectly healthy. Confused and frustrated, he finally approached his father one evening after dinner.
His father listened quietly, then asked, “Think about it — have you changed anything in how you care for them ” Tom hesitated. Then it hit him. A few weeks earlier, he had decided to cut costs by switching to cheaper feed and reducing the portions slightly. He’d figured the chickens wouldn’t notice, and the savings would add up. But now, his attempt to save a few dollars had backfired.
注意：
1．續寫詞數應為150左右；
2．請按如下格式在答題卡的相應位置作答。
A wave of guilt washing over him, Tom determined to make things right.

【原文】Good morning, everyone. Welcome to your first weekend painting class. My name is Kevin, and I will be your teacher for the next 12 weeks. I know you are from all walks of life, and for most of you, this is your first time painting, or even your first time doing anything artistic. Don’t worry, this course is designed to teach you the basics of drawing. In the first two weeks, you will get familiar with some very important drawing techniques, as well as understand how to use the equipment. On week three, I will start giving you weekly homework, so you can improve outside of these classes. It’s entirely your choice to complete the homework or not. It is not a course requirement, but obviously, it will really help you progress. After week eight, you have to submit a final piece of work. This artwork will require a lot of experimentation. After the twelfth week, we will hold an exhibition at a local gallery, which both you and your family are welcome to attend.
21．C 22．D 23．C 24．D
【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了敘利亞難民哈迪·阿爾馬斯里在柏林難民收容所，利用所學技能修復手機、搭建網絡，還開展培訓，如今仍堅持在收容所做志愿的故事。
21．詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞后“He turned a storage closet into a ‘tech clinic’, replacing cracked screens with plastic cut from water bottles and teaching himself Linux to revive motherboards. (他把一個儲藏室變成了一個‘技術診所’，用從水瓶上剪下的塑料更換破裂的屏幕，并自學Linux系統來修復主板)”中“replacing cracked screens with plastic cut from water bottles”和“revive motherboards”可知，哈迪利做的是修復工作，所以“resurrecting broken devices”指的是修復損壞的設備。劃線詞“resurrecting”意思是修理并重新使用，與C項“Repairing and reusing”意思相近。故選C項。
22．細節理解題。根據第三段中“Using cable from abandoned TVs and a router (路由器) made from three damaged units, he built “NetHope” — a network that boosted WiFi coverage to 95% of the community.(他使用廢棄電視的電纜和由三個損壞的單元制成的路由器，建立了“NetHope”網絡，將WiFi覆蓋率提高到95%)”和第四段中“The system wasn’t pretty, but it worked. Refugee children could finally attend virtual classes uninterrupted.(這個系統并不好看，但它有效。難民兒童終于可以不受干擾地上網課了)”可知，哈迪的“NetHope”項目最顯著的結果是難民兒童可以不受干擾地上網課。故選D項。
23．推理判斷題。根據第五段中“His ‘Build Your Own Internet’ workshops now train both refugees and elderly Germans in digital literacy (素養). ‘The cables connect more than devices,’ he said. ‘They connect people who think they’re different.’ (他的‘自己搭建網絡’工作坊現在為難民和德國老年人提供數字素養培訓。他說：‘電纜連接的不僅僅是設備，它們連接著那些認為彼此不同的人。’)”可推知，哈迪堅持先教別人使用網絡是為了連接著那些認為彼此不同的人，是為了彌合人們之間的數字鴻溝。故選C項。
24．推理判斷題。根據第二段中“Using skills learned from repairing phones in war torn Aleppo, Hadi began resurrecting broken devices. (利用在飽受戰爭蹂躪的阿勒頗學到的修理手機的技能，哈迪開始修復損壞的設備)”和第三段中“Using cable from abandoned TVs and a router (路由器) made from three damaged units, he built ‘NetHope’ — a network that boosted WiFi coverage to 95% of the community. (他用廢棄電視的電纜和由三個損壞的路由器組成的一個路由器，搭建了‘NetHope’——一個將社區WiFi覆蓋率提高到95%的網絡)”可知，哈迪很有創造力；再根據第五段中“Tech companies sent equipment, but Hadi insisted on teaching others first. (科技公司送來了設備，但哈迪堅持先教別人)”和第六段中“Now studying computer engineering at TU Berlin, Hadi still volunteers at the shelter every weekend. (現在哈迪在柏林工業大學學習計算機工程，他仍然每個周末在收容所做志愿者)”可知，哈迪很熱心。所以哈迪是有創造力且熱心腸的。故選D項。
25．B 26．D 27．A
【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章指出如今各城市熱衷于建造標志性摩天大樓，導致城市外觀趨同，設計師對此表示擔憂，但也有滿足高品味客戶需求的新設計出現。
25．細節理解題。根據第三段“Such expressions of architectural individuality have the unexpected effect. Cities look more and more like each other. Once upon a time, Chicago and New York were modern skyscraper cities, while European capitals such as Paris and London had antique streetscapes. Now, many are turning to cities sharing one face.(這種建筑個性的表達產生了意想不到的效果。城市看起來越來越相似。曾幾何時，芝加哥和紐約是現代摩天大樓城市，而巴黎和倫敦等歐洲首都則有著古老的街景。現在，許多城市正變得千篇一律)”和第三段中“This worries designers.(這讓設計師感到擔憂)”可知，建筑設計師擔心的是城市逐漸失去其獨特的特征。故選B項。
26．推理判斷題。根據第四段“Moshe Safdie, the architect who has designed towers in various cities, says some skyscrapers are more like giant sculptures than buildings forming parts of a public space. Many cities are filled with these boring towers intended to attract attention rather than to respond to the local setting.(在不同城市設計過塔樓的建筑師摩西·薩夫迪說，一些摩天大樓更像是巨大的雕塑，而不是構成公共空間一部分的建筑。許多城市都充斥著這些旨在吸引眼球而非與當地環境相呼應的乏味塔樓)”可知，摩西·薩夫迪認為許多城市都充斥著旨在吸引眼球而非與當地環境相呼應的乏味塔樓，由此推知，他會贊同“引人注目的設計需要與當地環境相協調”這一表述。故選D項。
27．推理判斷題。根據最后一段“Fortunately, impressive new designs appear as a result of meeting the need of today’s clients with high taste.(幸運的是，為滿足如今高品味客戶的需求，令人印象深刻的新設計出現了)”可知，作者認為令人印象深刻的新設計出現了，所以他對未來城市的天際線持樂觀態度，對其滿懷希望。故選A項。

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了亞馬遜公司為減少塑料污染，用100%再生紙替代塑料充氣枕作為快遞包裝，既節省成本又有利于海洋環境。
28．細節理解題。根據第二段中““We want to make sure the final package is easy to recycle at home,” says Pat Lindner, Amazon’s vice president of sustainable packaging.(亞馬遜可持續包裝副總裁帕特·林德納說：“我們希望確保最終的包裝在家中易于回收。”)可知，亞馬遜新快遞包裝最大的優勢可能是它的可回收性。故選A項。
29．推理判斷題。根據第三段中“It turned out to perform better. The number of packages that get damaged in shipment was reduced. The paper also takes up less space, so now more items fit in a smaller box. That translates to using less gas or electricity, in the case of the company’s electric vans to make a delivery.(結果證明它的性能更好。運輸過程中受損的包裹數量減少了。這種紙占用的空間也更小，所以現在更多的物品可以裝進一個更小的盒子里。這意味著在公司使用電動貨車送貨的情況下，消耗的汽油或電力更少)”可知，亞馬遜的紙質包裝既減少了運輸損壞又節省能源和成本，是一種雙贏的方式。故選C項。
30．推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“It’s a welcome change following years of pressure from environmental groups to stop plastic pollution flooding into oceans. “The fact that the world’s largest e commerce company has made plastic air pillows a thing of history is fantastic news for the world’s oceans,” the nonprofit Oceana said in a statement in response to Amazon’s announcement.(在環保組織多年來要求停止塑料污染流入海洋的壓力下，這是一個值得歡迎的改變。非營利組織Oceana在回應亞馬遜的聲明中表示：‘世界上最大的電子商務公司讓塑料充氣枕成為歷史，這對世界海洋來說是個好消息。’)”可知，最大的電子商務公司亞馬遜讓塑料充氣枕成為歷史，這將有利于減少塑料污染。由此推知，大公司可以對環境改善產生重大影響。故選C項。
31．主旨大意題。通讀全文，根據第三段中“It turned out to perform better. The number of packages that get damaged in shipment was reduced. The paper also takes up less space, so now more items fit in a smaller box. That translates to using less gas or electricity, in the case of the company’s electric vans to make a delivery.(結果證明它的性能更好。運輸過程中受損的包裹數量減少了。這種紙占用的空間也更小，所以現在更多的物品可以裝進一個更小的盒子里。這意味著在公司使用電動貨車送貨的情況下，消耗的汽油或電力更少。)”和第四段中“Plastic is cheap, but the new system saves the company money since there’s less risk that something will break during shipping and need replacement(塑料很便宜，但新系統為公司節省了資金，因為運輸過程中物品損壞并需要更換的風險更小)”可知，亞馬遜采用新的紙質包裝既節省了運輸成本，又降低了物品損壞風險；同時結合最后一段中“It’s a welcome change following years of pressure from environmental groups to stop plastic pollution flooding into oceans.(在環保組織多年來要求停止塑料污染流入海洋的壓力下，這是一個值得歡迎的改變。)”可知，這一改變有利于減少海洋的塑料污染。所以文章主要講述了亞馬遜用紙質包裝替代塑料充氣枕包裝的環保改變，既節省了公司成本又有利于海洋環境。D項“Amazon’s Eco friendly Change: Saving Costs and Oceans(亞馬遜的環保變革：節省成本與保護海洋)”能概括文章內容，最適合做文章標題。故選D項。

72．Dear Tom,
I hope this email finds you well!
Last week, I took part in a volunteer activity organized by our school to help the elderly in the community learn how to use smartphones. We taught them basic operations like making calls, sending messages and using WeChat. They were very excited to learn these new skills and some even practiced these operations over and over again with great enthusiasm.
This activity is really meaningful. It not only helps the elderly keep up with the digital age, but also makes me realize the importance of helping others.
Yours,
Li Hua
73．
A wave of guilt washing over him, Tom determined to make things right. He immediately went back to the local feed store and bought the high-quality feed he had used before. He also decided to give the chickens a bit more than the recommended amount. Every morning, he got up earlier to clean the cage more thoroughly and make sure the water was crystal clear. He spent extra time observing the chickens, talking to them gently as if to apologize for his previous neglect. He knew that it would take time for the chickens to recover, but he was patient and committed to restoring their egg laying ability.
Within a week, Tom noticed a change. The chickens seemed more energetic, pecking around the cage with enthusiasm. One morning, when he went to collect the eggs, he found three eggs in the basket. A wide smile spread across his face. As the days went by, the number of eggs gradually increased back to four or five a day. Tom was overjoyed. He realized that in business, as in life, taking shortcuts and cutting corners would only lead to failure. From then on, he was more responsible and dedicated, understanding that proper care and investment were the keys to success. His new-found wisdom would surely serve him well in his future endeavors.
