With pet ownership becoming more popular, being saddened by the loss of a beloved pet is becoming a terrible headache. Li Peng, a woolen felt (织物) craftswoman, has found a unique way to preserve the memory of dead pets by creating realistic woolen images.
Li’s journey into this craft is accidental. During her college years, she majored in e-commerce and worked part time at a pet store. One day, while visiting a website, she came upon a small fox made entirely of wool. Astonished at its delicacy, she set off on a self-taught journey in this art form. In late 2019, Li Peng made the firm decision to start her own business and pursue wool felting as a full-time profession.
While a video showcasing the work may only take a few minutes to watch, the actual process is far more intricate. The three-dimensional creations feature genuine fur, lifelike glass eyes and tiny whiskers (胡须), each one individually secured by hand. To achieve a vivid effect, she repeatedly sticks layers of wool with a needle, winding the loose fibers together to create solid felted shapes. The key is massive patience.
The handcrafted creations satisfy her desire to convey love. The majority of her customers are pet owners who have experienced the loss of their beloved companions. They send Li photographs and even their pets’ hair, hoping to freeze the appearance of their furry friends through her wool felting models. Fascinated by the deep bond between people and their pets, she is committed to grabbing and investing these emotions in her artworks. And it turns out that the career is a success. Orders are often scheduled for one year later, and she has gained substantial attention through social media.
Reflecting on her work, Li expresses her desire to create meaningful pieces using the warm material, offering a heartfelt gift of warmth to the beautiful souls of this world.
4. What inspired Li Peng to take up wool felting as a career
A. A temporary job at a pet shop. B. Her self-study art course.
C. A discovery of an alternative to fiber. D. A woolen creation online.
5. What does the underlined word “intricate” mean in paragraph 3
A. Confusing. B. Efficient. C. Complicated. D. Effortless.
6. Who are Li Peng’s primary clients
A. Conservationists of animal rights. B. Individuals fond of furry toys.
C. Distributors providing personalized service. D. People suffering from pet loss.
7. What’s the crucial factor behind Li Peng’s success
A. Fair product pricing. B. Human-pet attachment.
C. Smart network marketing. D. Hunger for a fine reputation.

Frances McGlannan grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, and moved to Miami in the early 1950s with her husband. The couple had two children, Michael and Genevieve, and by the time Michael entered elementary school it was clear that he had difficulty reading.
She decided to tackle it and find out what it was herself because she wasn’t getting any answers to the questions she was asking. McGlannan searched the library for information and started working at the University of Miami Reading Clinic, where she tutored children and helped conduct research. She also founded the Dade Reading Foundation, a volunteer group that shared information about dyslexia (阅读障碍) with teachers, parents and the local school board.
In the early 1960s, McGlannan traveled to Europe, where she learned new techniques to help children overcome learning disabilities. She also adapted multi-sensory techniques to help dyslexic children learn to read. In 1964, MeGlannan founded the McGlannan School for children with dyslexia and related learning difficulties.
McGlannan did all of this while raising two children and often worked past midnight to get everything done. However, balancing work and family wasn’t the only challenge McGlannan faced. She was also ridiculed by educators and doctors who believed children with dyslexia couldn’t be taught. But McGlannan was not discouraged. In addition to running the school, she convinced a publisher to start a scientific journal devoted to the study of learning disabilities, where she served as one of the editors. She also helped pass the 1975 Education for All Handicapped Children Act, which established the rights of children with disabilities. And in the 1980s, McGlannan reached out to teachers and publications in Latin America to share information about dyslexia and teaching techniques in Spanish.
McGlannan’s tireless efforts affected thousands of children in South Florida. Her legacy (遗产) continues through her family and through her school. Her daughter Genevieve is an educator, and Michael and his wife help run the McGlannan School. One of her grandchildren, who has dyslexia, even attended the school as a child.
8. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs
A. McGlannan found a way to help her son out.
B. People knew little about dyslexia in the 1950s.
C. McGlannan was the first to study learning disabilities.
D. The Dade Reading Foundation funded research on dyslexia.
9. What was the attitude of experts to McGlannan’s work
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Tolerant. D. Uncaring.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The challenges that McGlannan had to face in her research.
B. McGlannan’s plans to change people’s attitude to education.
C. McGlannan’s efforts to help children with learning disabilities.
D. The measures that McGlannan took to teach children with dyslexia.
11. What is the purpose of the text
A. To introduce a special school. B. To raise awareness of dyslexia.
C. To show the power of teamwork. D. To remember an education pioneer.
D
Social media provides materialists with ideal opportunities to compare themselves with others, which makes them subject to passive and addictive user behavior. This stresses them out and, ultimately, leads to low life satisfaction, according to a new study.
The researchers headed by Dr. Phillip Ozimek from Germany employed 1, 230 people for their online survey. In order to participate, respondents had to visit at least one social media channel at least once a week. On average, the participants stated they spent just over two hours a day on social media.
The team used six different questionnaires to determine the extent to which the participants had a materialistic attitude and tended to compare themselves with others, whether they used social media more actively or passively, whether they were addicted to social media, how stressed and how satisfied they were with their lives.
“The data showed a stronger materialistic approach goes hand in hand with a tendency to compare oneself with others,” points out Ozimek. This comparison is easy to make on social media, primarily through passive use—by looking at the content posted by other users. Materialism and passive use were also linked to addictive use of social media.
“Users are constantly thinking about the respective channels and fear they’re missing out on something if they
aren’t online” explains Ozimek. “This in turn leads to poorer mental health like stress. The final link in the chain is reduced life satisfaction.”
“Overall, the study provides further evidence that the use of social media is associated with risks, especially for people with a highly materialistic mindset,” says the psychologist. “This is particularly worrying, because social media can stimulate and increase materialistic values through influence r marketing. Meanwhile, the platforms attract materialists anyway, as they’re a perfect way to satisfy materialistic needs.”
“It’s definitely a good idea to be aware of the amount of time you spend on social media and to reduce it,” recommends Ozimek, who advises against giving up social media completely. “If you did, you’re likely to over-correct.” He also suggests recording materialism and social media use in patients undergoing treatment for mental health disorders. “While these factors are often irrelevant, they can be a starting point for additional interventions patients can try out at home.”
12. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. The Virtual World, the Real Danger
B. Showing Superiority Causes Heavy Media Use
C. More Social Media Materialism, Less Happiness
D. Materialistic Values: A Stepping Stone to Discontent
13. To qualify for the survey, a participant must ______
A. be a big spender B. specialize in data analysis
C. be a regular social media user D. upload web surfing history
14. What kind of feeling is expressed by Ozimek in paragraph 6
A. Pessimism. B. Sympathy. C. Shock. D. Concern.
15. What does Ozimek propose concerning using social media
A. Restricting the duration. B. Logging onto well-rated websites.
C. Abandoning it for good. D. Prohibiting patients from using it.

French parenting isn’t perfect, but there’s a lot we can learn from this kind but no-nonsense style of parenting.
French children are allowed to handle difficult things themselves. ____16____ The early years are when they
discover all the cool ways their new body works and how to use it. To encourage this autonomy, French parents treat children more like adults-in-training than helpless babies. They believe kids feel confident when they’re able to deal with things on their own.
Fearful of hurting feelings, American parents tend to praise every child for everything. ____17____ However, all that praise eventually turns out to be pointless. By contrast, French adults give children appropriate praise, thus allowing them to feel a true sense of achievement and take pride in what they learn.
Painful experiences are the best learning opportunities and sheltering children from this fact of life will merely delay their emotional development. French doctors never say “sorry” when giving kids shots. The French believe undergoing hurts, is part of life and that there’s no reason to apologize for that. ____18____
Plus, the expectation of eye contact and a polite hello starts from the minute French children can say hello. They know saying “hello” and good manners are non-negotiable. Teaching them about that will benefit them for a lifetime. ____19____ Be patient with little ones as they learn.
All the above feels easier said than done, especially as a tired parent facing an intolerable child. ____20____ Your efforts will end up with children’s better behaviour overall.
A. They mean what they say.
B. This isn’t to say it’ll come easily.
C. It might save tears in the short term.
D. They wish children to suffer sometimes.
E. Bearing a few blow-ups is worthwhile, though.
F. Parents have to spare them such psychological discomfort.
G. “Me do it!” is little kids’ favorite phrase and for good reason.

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。
Last year, 28-year-old Jane Bell moved to a suburb of Philadelphia for her newly found job and rent a house with a big yard in a village.
Jane had the habit of rising early for exercise. One cold morning, she was jogging through the nearby park when she spotted a weak husky lying by the path, seeming to have been deserted. She approached and checked it, only to find one of the dog’s legs severely broken. The pitiful dog looked at her with its sad blue eyes as if asking her for help. Blaming the dog’s previous owner for the selfish and irresponsible action, Jane, without hesitation, bent down and carried the dog home. Then she drove the dog to an animal clinic for a checkup and treatment, where a doctor told Jane it would take about 3 months before the dog got well.
Jane returned home with the dog, which she called Kobe. She made a comfortable den (窝) in the front yard and took great trouble to look after it. With time going on, Kobe gradually recovered and was able to get around with her. Every morning, Jane would take Kobe for a run. Every evening Jane came home from work, Kobe would welcome her, excitedly wagging (摇) its tail at her. Kobe kept Jane company and became her inseparable and loyal friend.
Jane’s furry companion was usually gentle and quiet. But one dawn Jane was woken up by Kobe’s loud barking and the constant noise of its pawing (用爪子抓) at the door. The moment she opened the door, Kobe pulled on her clothes with its mouth, attempting to lead her away from the yard. Initially dismissing it as typical dog behavior, Jane patted Kobe on the head to quiet it, saying firmly, “No, Kobe! Good boy, ca lm down!” However, the dog didn’t stop behaving strangely. It arched its back, its nose moving against a piece of ground in the yard anxiously. Jane was surprised and confused.
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。
Then Kobe began to dig the ground with its paws.

Dear Mary,
I really appreciate the activity “Pre-class 3-minute English Speech”, which boosts our speaking skills and confidence. However, I’ve noticed some problems needing to be solved.
The students crazy about English are always seizing the opportunity to present themselves, leaving shy students no chance. So I suggest making some adjustments. First, students can take turns giving presentations to guarantee everyone an equal chance to express themselves. Moreover, you can require students to review each
other’s speeches in groups, which will not only greatly reduces the error rate but also improves their writing skills.
I'd appreciate it if my advice could be considered.
Yours,
Li Hua

【47题答案】
【答案】
Then Kobe began to dig the ground with its paws. Before long, it dug a sizable hole in the yard. As the hole expanded, an old gas pipe appeared at the bottom, which concerned her. Given Kobe’s normally well-behaved nature, Jane suddenly realized that its unusual actions might mean a warning of danger. “Dogs usually have sharp noses and can accurately sense the presence of gas while we humans can’t. Something must have gone wrong with the pipe,” Jane thought to herself, nervous and scared. The next minute, she raced into the house and immediately contacted the local gas management department.
Soon gas workers came. Without delay, they got down to detection. Sure enough, there was gas leaking from the aging pipe. It was so dangerous that all the villagers were urged to leave right away. Meanwhile, repair operations were conducted. The workers worked tirelessly for hours to replace the broken pipe. When everything returned to normal, the villagers couldn’t thank Kobe enough. But for its timely warning, an explosion could have easily happened and left the whole village in ruins. As the saying goes, one good deed deserves another. Jane’s kindness brought safety to herself and even the whole neighborhood.
