A
These all-American routes offer unforgettable journeys.
Blues Highway
Travel along a 1,330-kilometer section of Highway 51 from Nashville, Tennessee, to New Orleans, Louisiana, and explore the birthplace of blues music. The Deep South has a rich cultural history, including homes of famous blues musicians and legendary recording studios. Clarksdale, Mississippi, proudly claims to be where the blues began. In Memphis, you can visit Graceland, once home to Elvis Presley. If there’s any trip that demands its own soundtrack, this is the one.
Pacific Coast Highway
Running from San Francisco all the way down to San Diego, this spectacular West Coast drive follows the dramatic California coastline. You’ll see steep cliffs, scenic beaches, towering Redwood forests, and maybe even elephant seals on the shore. Stop in charming towns like Santa Cruz and Monterey, or marvel at the wild beauty of Big Sur. The views around each bend are stunning, so be ready for picture-perfect moments.
Hāna Highway
Featuring over 600 curves, numerous narrow bridges, and high cliffs, this long road on Maui’s eastern coast can be both thrilling and awe-inspiring. Although it can be driven in 6 hours at the average speed of 50 kilometers per hour, many people take a whole day to enjoy the waterfalls, black sand beaches, and fruit stands along the way. The lush rainforests and ocean views make this route a true Hawaiian treasure.
Utah Mighty 5
Southern Utah’s five national parks are ideal for days of discovery. From the impressive red rock canyons of Canyonlands to the sandstone towers in Zion, each park offers breathtaking sights. At Arches, you can admire more than 2,000 natural stone arches, some formed millions of years ago. In Bryce Canyon, you’ll see pink cliffs and towering hoodoos, while Capitol Reef features remarkable rock art created by indigenous peoples.
Route 66
Often called the “Mother Road,” this historic highway stretches about 3,665 kilometers from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California. It typically takes three weeks to complete the journey, crossing Oklahoma’s plains, Texas’s farmland, and Arizona’s desert mesas before reaching the Golden State. Expect quirky roadside stops, friendly local diners, and a true taste of Americana along the way.21. What is special about the Royal Academy of Arts

At Christmas, it's often the little things that hold the most meaning, as writer Harriet Minter shares in her piece “Filled with love”. Minter finds that while she's not fond of others choosing gifts for her, there's one aspect where she welcomes the gesture—the Christmas stocking.
Each year, Minter writes a Christmas list for her family, but she doesn't enjoy the surprise of a gift she wouldn't have chosen herself. However, the Christmas stocking is a different story. Her mother has been filling stockings for her, her sister, and the whole family for decades, and now Minter does the same for her partner.
The Christmas stocking is filled with a variety of small items. There are always chocolate coins, a pair of tights, and cotton wool pads. Seasonal decorations, a fun game from a cracker, and odds and ends like daily use makeup and self - care products such as shampoo and conditioner miniatures can also be found. There might even be dried herbs or spices and kitchen utensils.
Minter views the stocking as more than just a collection of small gifts. It's a chance for the filler to understand the recipient's life in detail and make their daily life a bit easier. Buying a woman a piece of jewelry according to her taste is difficult, but choosing ten small items that enhance her daily life shows a true understanding of her. Maybe being truly seen and appreciated through such a simple act is the gift we all secretly hope to receive.
24. Why doesn't Minter like the surprise of a gift
A. Because the gifts are always too expensive.
B. Because the gifts are usually not what she really wants.
C. Because she prefers to choose gifts by herself.
D. Because she doesn't like receiving gifts.
25. What can we know about the Christmas stocking from the passage
A. It only contains expensive items.
B. Minter started the tradition of filling stockings.
C. It is filled with a wide range of small items.
D. People don't value the items in the stocking.
26. What does Minter think is the true meaning of the Christmas stocking
A. It is a way to show off one's wealth.
B. It is a chance to exchange gifts with others.
C. It is a collection of various beautiful things.
D. It is an expression of understanding and care.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A. Christmas Gifts: Big or Small
B. The Tradition of Christmas Stockings
C. Filled with Love: The Magic of Christmas Stockings
D. Harriet Minter's Christmas Lists
C
Of the many patients who need an organ transplant（器官移植), most never receive one, which often leads to negative outcomes. Meanwhile, around 240 million people live with rare genetic diseases, the majority of which lack effective treatments. Each year, poor diets contribute to millions of premature deaths worldwide. In response to these enormous challenges, CRISPR gene editing offers promising new solutions—and smart regulation can help it succeed.
CRISPR works like a molecular(分子的) editor, capable of rewriting DNA to remove harmful mutations or insert protective ones. Using this technology, scientists hope to create pig organs that can safely be transplanted into humans, potentially saving countless lives. CRISPR-based therapies for blood disorders are already in development, and future treatments could address high cholesterol(胆固醇), a leading risk factor for heart disease. Moreover, CRISPR may enhance crop yields, guard plants against climate extremes, and even improve the nutritional quality of everyday foods.
However, to draw sustained investment, CRISPR must demonstrate real-world results that win public trust. Since its discovery in 2012, it has begun replacing older gene-modifying methods that failed to fulfill their early promise. Despite this, outdated regulations continue to restrict CRISPR’s potential. Rules designed for large-scale medicines hamper small-batch CRISPR therapies, especially for rare diseases with only a few patients. Although CRISPR can be tailored to target specific mutations（突变）, current approval processes remain costly and rigid（苛刻死板的).
Gene-edited crops face similar obstacles. In many regions, they are still classified as genetically modified organisms, even though they only tweak a plant’s existing DNA rather than adding foreign genes. Such rigid policies slow agricultural research and limit the technology’s contribution to food security. Ultimately, CRISPR’s success depends on thoughtful, flexible oversight that encourages innovation without neglecting safety. With wise regulation and continued scientific progress, CRISPR could transform medicine and agriculture alike.
28. What is CRISPR’s primary function as described in the passage
A. To supply large amounts of donor organs
B. To rewrite DNA by adding or removing specific genes
C. To replace outdated regulations on drug development
D. To prevent genetically modified organisms from spreading
29. According to the passage, what is one key obstacle CRISPR faces when treating rare diseases
A. Unavailability of modern laboratory equipment
B. Lack of public interest in new therapies
C. Rules designed for large-scale drug development
D. High cholesterol rates among certain patients
30. Why are gene-edited crops often treated the same as GMOs in many regions
A. They frequently use foreign genes to boost yields
B. They have not been approved for public consumption
C. They follow the same commercial strategies as other crops
D. They are regulated under outdated or inflexible policies
31. Which statement best summarizes the passage’s main idea
A. CRISPR should be limited to agricultural use only
B. CRISPR’s full potential depends on flexible regulation and ongoing innovation
C. CRISPR is already widely accepted and faces few obstacles
D. CRISPR’s technology is too expensive to develop further
D
In the book The Sounds of Life, author Karen Bakker explores the fascinating world of how animals sense sound, even those without ears. This exploration reveals the noises that strike fear into the hearts of elephants and explains why bats rely on echolocation.
Bakker takes readers on a journey through ten chapters, each focusing on a different organism, from singing whales and dancing honey bees to growing turtles. By introducing readers to the emerging field of digital bio-acoustics（生物声学), she helps us understand the meanings behind the sounds animals make. These sounds have become crucial keys to understanding and conserving species and ecosystems. For instance, the sounds made by bats are far more complex than we once thought.
Beyond just the functional aspects, some bat species even have behaviors similar to human ones. Young bats learn “courtship songs” from their fathers, much like human juveniles learning from elders. Meanwhile, real - time listening stations are playing a significant role in reducing the number of ship strikes on the North Atlantic right whale, one of the most endangered marine mammals in North America.
Bakker also looks to the future, imagining a time when artificial intelligence - enabled robots could monitor biodiversity in animal worlds through battery - less audio recording networks. Although the book's vocabulary might be a bit challenging for some, it offers a thought - provoking and rigorous look at our understanding of the animal pared to other books that touch on bioacoustics, The Sounds of Life meticulously researches and connects various aspects of the field, making it accessible to a wide range of readers. It combines elements of animal ecology, science - doing narratives, futurism, and accounts of Indigenous knowledge, presenting a rich and interdisciplinary view.
32. What is the main focus of the book The Sounds of Life
A. The language of different animal species.
B. How animals sense and make sounds.
C. The relationship between animals and humans.
D. The future of artificial intelligence in animal research.
33. Why are the sounds made by animals important according to the passage
A. They can be used to create new languages.
B. They help us understand and protect species and ecosystems.
C. They show the unique intelligence of each animal.
D. They are the only way to study animal behavior.
34. What can we know about the book The Sounds of Life from the passage
A. It only focuses on a few common animals.
B. Its vocabulary is too simple for most readers.
C. It combines multiple fields of knowledge.
D. It has been widely used in animal conservation.
35. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage
A. Bats' sounds are simpler than previously thought.
B. Real - time listening stations have no effect on protecting whales.
C. The book may inspire readers to think about the animal sound world.
D. Artificial intelligence - enabled robots are already widely used in animal monitoring.

第二节：读后续写(满分25分)
About ten years ago, I was a high school student during some financially challenging years. There was a period of time when I couldn’t be bothered about hair in general, and I didn’t want to spend a fortune on cutting my hair. So, whenever I went home for the weekend, I would just borrow my dad’s shaver (剃须刀) and give myself a really short haircut.
One weekend, I decided it was time for my haircut. Unfortunately, I left it until about thirty minutes before I had to catch my train back to school. That would have been fine, except my dad’s shaver chose that exact moment to run out of batteries. So, there I was, with a half-cut head, in a rush to go, or otherwise, I would have missed my train. I decided, anyhow, to put on a hat, onto the train, and off to my dormitory.
After getting to my dormitory, my roommates informed me that we would be taking our graduation photos at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, including both group and individual shots. What should I do I had to walk a long way to find a barbershop in the street. I visited a few barbershops, but they refused me because I didn’t have an appointment (预约).
Finally, when I was almost desperate (绝望的), I caught sight of a barbershop. Although there was a guest waiting to be served, I finally decided to go in. I said, “Excuse me, I completely messed up my hair over the weekend. Do you have any drop-in appointments ” The barber replied, “Sorry, we’re fully booked right now. How about Tuesday ” I said, “No. I can’t wait. I need to have my graduation photo at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. And I mustn’t wear the hat to do it.” Hearing this, the barber felt sorry for me. He looked at me, then looked at the hat, and looked back at me. “How bad is it ”

1.续写词数应为150个左右；

Then I honestly took off my hat to show my half haircut to him.

Then I honestly took off my hat to show my half haircut to him. Seeing this, both the barber and the guest waiting for him to serve laughed. But then the barber’s eyes softened with sympathy. With the guest’s permission to serve me first, he said, “Let’s see what we can do.” He gestured for me to take a seat and quickly got to work, carefully cutting and styling my hair with skilled hands. As the minutes ticked by, I could feel the tension in my shoulders easing, replaced by a growing sense of relief.
Seeing my beautiful hair in the mirror, I was very satisfied and touched. The barber had transformed my messy attempt into a neat and stylish cut that suited me perfectly. “There you go,” he said with a smile, “all set for your graduation photos.” I expressed my heartfelt gratitude to him and the guest. The next morning, when I took the graduation photo with my classmates confidently, I realized that their act of kindness not only saved my graduation photos but also taught me a valuable lesson about the importance of compassion and going the extra mile for others.
