• Partial marks may be awarded for incomplete but valid responses.

Section A: 阅读理解一 — [20 marks]

Question 1 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

"阅读的本质并未改变"这句话的含意是：无论阅读的载体如何变化（从纸质书到电子屏幕），阅读的核心目的——获取信息、理解意义、进行思考——并没有发生根本性的改变。载体只是外在形式，而阅读的内在过程（理解、分析、判断）才是本质所在。（2 marks）

作者在第①段提出这一观点的写作意图是：先呈现两种对立的观点（忧虑 vs. 乐观），以引起读者的思考和兴趣，同时为后文的深入讨论——探讨数字阅读对认知能力的影响——作铺垫。这种"先立后破"或"先呈现争议再逐步深入分析"的手法，使文章更具说服力和层次感。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for accurate interpretation of the phrase "阅读的本质并未改变" with reference to the passage.
• 2 marks for identifying the author's writing intention (e.g., presenting contrasting views to engage readers / setting up the discussion / creating a balanced opening).
• Award 1 mark for partial or vague interpretation without textual grounding.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who only explain the literal meaning of the sentence without addressing the author's intention.
• Students who confuse "本质" with "方式" (method vs. essence).

Question 2 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

作者用来支持"屏幕阅读更容易导致注意力分散"这一论点的两项证据如下：

证据一： 神经科学研究表明，屏幕阅读与纸质阅读在大脑中的认知加工方式存在显著差异，读者往往采取"跳读"和"扫读"的策略，而非逐字逐句地深入理解。（2 marks）

证据二： 哈佛大学一项长达十年的追踪研究发现，习惯于数字阅读的学生在长文本理解测试中的得分，平均比习惯于纸质阅读的学生低百分之十五。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks per piece of evidence, correctly identified from the text.
• Both pieces of evidence must be clearly stated. Partial credit (1 mark each) if the student identifies only one evidence point or provides an incomplete summary.
• Students who paraphrase the evidence without referencing the source (神经科学研究 / 哈佛大学研究) may receive a maximum of 3 marks.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who quote the text verbatim without demonstrating understanding.
• Students who cite evidence from the wrong paragraph (e.g., citing Q3's philosopher reference).

Question 3 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

作者引用韩炳哲的观点的目的是：说明碎片化阅读不仅是一种技术现象，更是一种深层的精神状态问题。韩炳哲指出，现代人并非被外在力量压迫，而是被"自我剥削"的精神状态驱使——不断追求效率，却在这个过程中丧失了沉思的能力。（2 marks）

这一引用对论证文章主题的作用是：将讨论从"阅读方式的技术层面"提升到"人类思维和精神健康的层面"，使论证更具深度和说服力。它帮助作者说明，数字阅读的真正危害不在于屏幕本身，而在于它所代表的"即时满足"文化对人类深度思考能力的侵蚀，从而强化了文章"批判性思考能力比阅读载体更重要"的核心论点。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for explaining the purpose of the reference (connecting digital reading to a deeper philosophical / psychological issue).
• 2 marks for analysing how the reference strengthens the article's argument (adding depth, elevating the discussion, reinforcing the thesis).
• Award 1 mark if the student identifies the reference but does not explain its function in context.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who summarise韩炳哲's view without linking it to the passage's argument.
• Students who treat the reference as mere decoration rather than a rhetorical strategy.

Question 4 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

第②段的态度： 对数字阅读持较为批判的态度。作者引用神经科学研究和哈佛大学的追踪研究，强调屏幕阅读导致注意力分散、长文本理解能力下降，并指出碎片化阅读正在重塑思维模式，使人失去深度思考的能力。（2 marks）

第④段的态度： 对数字阅读持较为积极和辩证的态度。作者指出，将数字阅读一概而论地视为洪水猛兽"未免失之偏颇"，并举出优质数字内容平台推动深度阅读的例子（如"专注阅读"模式、在线读书社区），说明关键在于如何使用工具，而非工具本身。（2 marks）

作者如何通过对比推进论述： 作者先在第②③段呈现数字阅读的负面影响（"破"），再在第④段指出其积极可能性（"立"），形成"先抑后扬"的结构。这种对比使论述更加全面和辩证，避免了片面否定数字阅读，也为最后一段的结论——"阅读的核心在于批判性思考"——提供了更扎实的基础。（This comparative structure is implicit in the 2 marks above; no separate marks for this part unless the student explicitly addresses the structural progression.）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for accurately identifying the attitude in Paragraph 2 (critical / negative).
• 2 marks for accurately identifying the attitude in Paragraph 4 (more positive / balanced / dialectical).
• Award partial credit (1 mark each) if the student identifies one paragraph's attitude correctly but mischaracterises the other.
• Students who only describe the content of each paragraph without addressing the "attitude" may receive a maximum of 2 marks.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who describe the content of the paragraphs without identifying the author's attitude.
• Students who fail to recognise the dialectical structure (先破后立).

Question 5 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer (Model Response):

我同意文章最后一段的观点。在数字时代，信息的获取变得前所未有地容易，但这并不意味着人们真正"读懂"了这些信息。面对海量的碎片化内容，如果缺乏批判性思考的能力，读者很容易被虚假信息或片面观点所误导。（2 marks for agreeing/disagreeing with clear reasoning）

正如文章第④段所指出的，关键在于如何使用工具。同样地，教育的目标也不仅仅是传授知识或训练阅读技能，更重要的是培养学生质疑、分析和判断的能力。只有当学生能够独立思考，不盲从权威，不轻信网络信息，教育才算真正完成了其使命。（2 marks for connecting to personal understanding and the passage）

Marking Notes:

• 1 mark for clearly stating agreement or disagreement.
• 1 mark for providing reasoning based on the passage content.
• 1 mark for connecting to personal understanding or real-world examples.
• 1 mark for coherence and quality of expression.
• Award a maximum of 2 marks if the student only states agreement without reasoning or personal input.
• A well-argued disagreement (e.g., arguing that teaching reading skills is equally important) may receive full marks if the reasoning is sound and well-supported.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who only state "同意" or "不同意" without providing reasons.
• Students who write a generic response that does not engage with the passage.
• Students who exceed the recommended length significantly (this is not penalised but may indicate poor time management).

Section B: 阅读理解二 — [20 marks]

Question 6 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

Text A 的作者认为，年轻人和传统艺术之间的隔阂不在于他们"不知道"这些艺术形式的存在，而在于他们觉得这些艺术与自己的生活毫无关联。（2 marks）

他提出的建议是：与其强迫学生观看他们完全听不懂的传统艺术表演，不如思考如何用现代的语言和形式，让传统艺术重新焕发生命力。具体而言，可以借鉴一些成功的创新案例，如将电子音乐元素融入华乐演奏，或将经典粤剧故事改编成现代都市背景的短剧。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for accurately identifying the "gap" (not ignorance, but perceived irrelevance to modern life).
• 2 marks for identifying the suggested approach (using modern language/forms to revitalise traditional arts, with at least one example from the text).
• Award 1 mark if the student identifies the gap but not the suggestion, or vice versa.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who misidentify the gap as "年轻人不了解传统艺术" (the text explicitly says this is NOT the issue).
• Students who list the examples without explaining the underlying suggestion.

Question 7 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

例子： Text B 提到，粤剧本身就是在融合了多种地方戏曲的基础上形成的；华乐在新加坡的发展过程中也吸收了马来音乐和印度音乐的元素。（2 marks）

目的： 作者举这个例子的目的是说明，传统艺术从来不是"一成不变"的，它在历史上就不断地吸收新的元素来丰富自己。因此，今天对传统艺术进行创新，并非"背叛"传统，而是延续了传统艺术本身的发展逻辑。这一例子有力地反驳了"任何改编都是对传统的亵渎"这一保守观点，为作者"在尊重传统的基础上拥抱创新"的核心论点提供了历史依据。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for correctly identifying one example from the text (either 粤剧融合多种地方戏曲 or 华乐吸收马来/印度音乐元素).
• 2 marks for explaining the author's purpose (to show that innovation is consistent with the historical development of traditional arts / to counter the conservative view).
• Award 1 mark if the student provides the example but does not explain the purpose.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who provide an example from Text A instead of Text B.
• Students who quote the example but do not explain its rhetorical function.

Question 8 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

相同点： 两篇文章都认为传统艺术需要创新，不能固守旧有形式。Text A 主张以"活化"代替"保护"，Text B 也认为"任何形式的改编都是对传统的亵渎"这一观点忽略了传统艺术本身的历史发展逻辑。两篇文章都认同，传统艺术要在现代社会中延续，就必须与当代人的生活产生联系。（2 marks）

不同点： 两篇文章的侧重点有所不同。Text A 更强调创新的形式和手段（如融入电子音乐、改编成现代短剧），侧重于"如何让年轻人走近传统艺术"；Text B 则更强调创新必须建立在对传统有深入理解的基础上，并呼吁政府和社会提供更多资源和支持，侧重于"如何在制度层面保障传统艺术的生存和发展"。此外，Text B 对"原汁原味保存"的观点进行了更直接的驳斥，而Text A 则更多地通过成功案例来展示创新的可行性。（2 marks）

Marking Notes:

• 2 marks for identifying the similarity (both support innovation / both reject rigid preservation).
• 2 marks for identifying the difference (different emphasis: Text A on methods/approaches, Text B on institutional support and understanding-based innovation).
• Award 1 mark if the student identifies either the similarity or the difference but not both.
• Students who only summarise each text separately without comparing may receive a maximum of 2 marks.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who only summarise the two texts without making explicit comparisons.
• Students who claim the two texts have "completely different" views (they share significant common ground).

Question 9 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer:

"保护"与"活化"的不同：

"保护"意味着将传统艺术以原有的、固定的形式保存下来，尽量不对其进行任何改变，使其保持"原汁原味"。这种态度将传统艺术视为一种需要被"抢救"的脆弱遗存。（1 mark）

"活化"则意味着让传统艺术与现代生活重新建立联系，通过创新的形式和表达方式，使其焕发新的生命力。"活化"并不否定传统的价值，而是认为传统需要在与当代的对话中不断更新和发展。（1 mark）

作者更倾向于"活化"的原因：

根据两篇文章的内容，作者更倾向于"活化"，原因有二：

1. 传统艺术在历史上本身就经历了不断的创新和融合（如Text B所述，粤剧融合了多种地方戏曲，华乐吸收了马来和印度音乐元素），因此"原汁原味"本身就是一个不存在的概念。（1 mark）

2. 只有"活化"才能真正解决年轻人与传统艺术之间的隔阂问题。如Text A所述，年轻人并非不知道传统艺术的存在，而是觉得它与自己的生活无关。通过"活化"（如融入电子音乐、改编成现代短剧），传统艺术才能重新吸引年轻观众，实现真正的传承。（1 mark）

Marking Notes:

• 1 mark for distinguishing "保护" from "活化" (preservation vs. revitalisation).
• 1 mark for further elaboration of the distinction.
• 2 marks for explaining why the author prefers "活化" with reference to both texts.
• Award partial credit for incomplete but valid responses.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who only define one term without comparing the two.
• Students who explain the difference but do not reference the texts.
• Students who confuse "活化" with "商业化" (commercialisation is not the same as revitalisation).

Question 10 (4 marks)

Suggested Answer (Model Response):

亲爱的同学们：

我们即将迎来学校的"传统艺术体验周"！活动的目的是让同学们有机会亲身体验华乐、粤剧、书法等传统艺术，感受中华文化的魅力。

为了让大家真正乐在其中，我们精心设计了两项活动：

一、"当华乐遇见电子音乐"工作坊： 我们将邀请本地华乐团，现场演示如何将电子音乐元素融入传统华乐演奏。同学们还可以亲手尝试，用平板电脑为传统旋律添加现代节拍。设计理由：传统艺术并非遥不可及，当它与我们的日常音乐体验产生共鸣时，自然会变得有趣而亲切。

二、"我的粤剧新剧本"创作比赛： 同学们可以选取一个经典粤剧故事，将其改编成发生在校园里的现代短剧。获奖作品将在体验周上演出。设计理由：通过创作，我们不仅了解了传统故事的内核，更学会了用现代语言重新讲述它——这正是传统艺术延续的方式。

期待大家的参与！

Marking Notes:

• 1 mark for stating the purpose of the event clearly.
• 1 mark for describing at least one activity with a clear design rationale linked to the texts' ideas.
• 1 mark for describing a second activity with rationale (or a more detailed rationale for one activity).
• 1 mark for language quality, persuasiveness, and coherence (including staying within the 200-character limit).
• Award a maximum of 2 marks if the student lists activities without explaining the design rationale.
• Award a maximum of 2 marks if the response does not reference ideas from the two texts.
• The response should be ≤200 characters. If significantly over, deduct 1 mark.

Common Mistakes:

• Students who write a generic promotional message without specific activity designs.
• Students who design activities that are not linked to the texts' ideas about revitalising traditional arts.
• Students who exceed the 200-character limit significantly.
