The 2025 Spring Festival Gala had a special guest. He is Evan Kail, an American shop owner and content creator.
In 2022 Kail received a photo album from one of his 200, 000 online followers. It contained photographs of the killings of Chinese civilians by Japanese troops during World War II. Kail realized that these could be evidence of war crimes. He posted a TikTok video featuring images from the album, hoping to find a museum that would like to examine them.
The video went popular within hours and received over 25 million views in a week. Many Chinese viewers expressed their thanks to him. However, his decision not to publish or sell the photographs of the killings later caused a wild storm of online hate against him. Some people accused him of making the whole thing up and trying to get famous. He even receives serious life threats.
Despite physical danger and emotional suffering, Kail was determined to give the album to China. He eventually donated it to the Consulate General (总领事馆) of China in Chicago. In response, he received a gift. It was a beautiful porcelain tea jar along with a letter thanking him for his contribution. The tea jar was present at the 2025 Spring Festival Gala as well.
Two years after making the donation, Kail went on a two-month trip to China, visiting Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Nanjing, Heilongjiang and Wuhan. He hoped that he could be an ambassador (大使) of peace and help the people of both countries get to know each other.
It was in Wuhan, the last stop of his journey, where he received his Gala invitation, making him the first American ever invited.

On the Loess Plateau (黄土高原) of northern China, around 40 million people still live in traditional caves called yaodong, combining perfectly with the region’s unique landscape.
These cave houses are built with vaulted (有拱顶的) rooms and thick earthen walls. The entrances are decorated with beautiful wooden windows. Inside, you’ll find large, heated beds known as the kang, which provide warmth during cold winters. Small tunnels connect the rooms, creating a comfortable living space.
The design of yaodong is closely tied to the environment of the Loess Plateau. The region has a dry climate with strong winds, making above-ground houses less practical. By contrast, yaodong are built into the earth, offering protection from bad weather. The soil in this area is thick and fine, making it easy to dig while providing strong support for the structure. This natural material also acts as excellent insulation, keeping the homes cool in summer and warm in winter. Additionally, because wood and other building materials are little, yaodong are a low-cost and sustainable choice for the local people.
Yaodong come in different forms, each adapted to the local landscape. One type is the cliff-side yaodong (靠崖式窑洞), which is carved directly into the hill-sides. These homes have open fronts that allow natural light and air to flow in. Another type is the sunken yaodong (下沉式窑洞), which is built by digging a large rectangular pit (矩形坑) into the ground. Rooms are then carved into the walls of the pit, creating an underground courtyard. This design provides extra insulation and privacy. Finally, there are stand-alone yaodong, which are built above ground using materials like earth, stone and mud. These houses are common in areas where digging into the earth is not possible.
8 Which paragraph is mainly about the structure of yaodong
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
9. What does the underlined word “insulation” refer to in the text
A. A material to make rooms cooler. B. A material to make rooms warmer.
C. A material to stop heat getting in and out. D. A material to prevent water coming in.
10. What do we know about the sunken yaodong
A. It has an open front yard. B. It stands on strong stones.
C. It is dug directly into the hill-sides. D. It is built under the ground.
11. What can we learn from this text
A. We should be at one with nature. B. We should live in low-cost houses.
C. We should make the most of space. D. We should build more yangdong for people.
D
Last month, a series of wildfires broke out in southern California, killing dozens of people. The clouds of smoke can even be seen from space.
People of many fire-prone (容易起火的) areas as well as those far downwind have grown familiar with the thick, orange smoke. Such smoke can contain an unpredictable chemicals linked with heart and lung diseases and even cancer. Here’s what makes wild-fire smoke so dangerous.
When organic matter like trees burns, it releases CO2, water, heat and, depending on the available fuel, various chemicals and particles (颗粒) . Those tiny particles, which float in the air, can include metals, dust and more. If they’re smaller than 2.5 micrometers in diameter (直径), they can get through our body’s natural defenses when breathed in and go deep into the lungs, causing many health problems. Such particles, called PM2.5, is a common pollutant. It’s also created by motor vehicles and industrial plants. But the type present in wildfire smoke can be much more harmful to the human body.
When a fire breaks out in an urban area, it destroys homes, offices, cars and other facilities. In other words, more stuff is burned. Paints, metals and more can release many kinds of harmful chemicals. A 2023 study found that the quantity of harmful chemicals released during urban wildfires was more than 1,000 times larger than that in fires happening in woodland areas.
What’s worse, over time, the smoke is exposed to sunlight. The radiation can cause a set of reactions that usually result in other pollutants. Then, as smoke containing these chemicals travels and settles over other cities, it can mix with even more local pollution. Research also suggests that those chemicals and particles, both possibly harmful, can combine to make their respective health risks even worse.
12. What is the main topic of the text
A. The causes of wildfires. B. Climate change impact.
C. Preventing urban wildfires. D. Health risks of wildfire smoke.
13. Why is PM2.5 from wildfire smoke dangerous
A. It enters the lungs. B. It travels far.
C. It’s larger in size. D. It’s only from fires.
14. What’s a key difference between urban and woodland wildfires
A. Urban fires affect more trees. B. Urban fires burn less material.
C. Urban fires release more pollutants. D. Urban fires produce less smoke.
15. What will probably happen when wildfire smoke is exposed to sunlight
A. It changes color. B. It becomes harmless.
C. It quickly disappears. D. It forms other pollutants.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）
根据短文内容，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。
I feel guilty every time I receive a new package on my doorstep. I know that buying more new things isn’t good for the planet — the production and use of household goods and services was found to have driven 60 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. ____16____
Actually, the desire to keep buying things isn’t just a personal imperfection — it’s actually part of how our brains evolved.
Long ago, our ancestors survived by learning which choices led to good things, like moving toward food or backing away from dangers. ____17____ They help strengthen rewarding behavior by releasing dopamine (多巴胺), a feel-good chemical, whenever we do something good. Over time, we learn to repeat the actions that give us good feelings.
____18____ When we get an unexpected reward, our brains release even more dopamine. That’s why we feel excited when we find something unexpected while shopping.
Over time, though, the original unexpected joy of that first purchase fades. The dopamine hit gets smaller with each repeat action. That’s why we’re constantly drawn to new things. ____19____
So, how do we break the cycle The solution isn’t to stop buying things completely. Instead, we can replace the old rewards with new rewards. Just like changing chocolate for a healthier snack, we can find ways to satisfy our desire to shop without hurting the planet. ____20____ You still get something that is new to you, and that same good feeling of an unexpected reward, but without the need for a company to take more resources from the earth.
A. Our brains love surprises.
B Buying used items is a smart and elegant choice.
C. Our brains long for that original unexpected joy.
D. Today, our brains still work that way, but they’re more complex.
E. However, all humans are different, and our brains work differently.
F. Still, every time I make a purchase, I get a small burst of joy that’s hard to resist.
G. Creating social rewards can also encourage more people to change their behavior.

“Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” Do you ____21____ that old saying Probably not, because you know words can sometimes hurt more than a ____22____ arm. The words we speak show how we feel, and unkind words hurt both the person who ____23____ and the person who says them.
On the other hand, kind words encourage others and ____24____ the people who say them. If you become a good ____25____, you’ll win more friends. You’ll ____26____ your teachers and parents, and you’ll even have a better ____27____ of getting a job in an interview. It makes sense to learn to communicate clearly and ____28____.
If you throw a stone into the ocean, the stone comes back to you. Words are ____29____ that. What you throw out comes back to you. It’s ____30____ that sometimes people won’t answer your kind words with kindness. But over the long run, if you communicate kindness, you’ll attract kind words in ____31____.
We communicate in more than just words. Any ____32____ you make with your body, any sound that comes out of your mouth, the expression you ____33____, and even the thoughts you have can ____34____ a message to someone. Therefore, it’s vital to master the art of communication, which builds positive connections and creates a wave of kindness that ____35____ our lives and the lives of others.

Due to my unhealthy eating habits, I became fatter and fatter after college. My good friend Anoush was a running enthusiast. So he advised me to lose weight by running and he promised to accompany me to run.
Seven years later, I got more serious about running. And I dreamed to participate in Boston Marathon. Anoush wanted to attend the same marathon with me. Every day we spared our time to practise hard, during which time Anoush gave me much professional guidance and encouragement. And then one day, both of us qualified for the 2017 Boston Marathon. We were excited but unfortunately, several weeks before the marathon, we had a serious quarrel. I didn’t talk with him anymore.
The day came. Anoush and I stood at the starting line. He said, “Good luck! You will certainly finish the marathon.” Hearing his words, I looked at him, saying, “It’s none of your business.”
Then we started running. Soon, I passed Anoush.
But I struggled in the heat starting at mile 16. I felt most of my oxygen went to the muscle in my legs and less in my brain, which made me feel a bit light-headed and dizzy (眩晕的). I continually encouraged myself, “Just get to the finish, run bold, and you will win.” But all phrases that I say to myself didn’t work.
Gradually I felt out of breath and had to slow down my pace. As I ran down the famous last stretch of the Boston Marathon on Boylston Street, I fell down on the ground.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；

【答案】
Dear Tom,
I’m thrilled that you’re interested in the “My Dream” topic on our school’s WeChat column!
My dream is to become a teacher. The reason why I choose this dream is that I’ve always been inspired by my own teachers, who have not only taught me knowledge but also shown me how to be a kind and responsible person. What I want to do, which is what my teachers did for me, is to guide and inspire future generations. To achieve this dream, I will study hard to gain more knowledge and skills.
I believe that what I learn now will lay a solid foundation for my future teaching career.
Yours,
Li Hua

【47题答案】
【答案】
Just then, I felt that someone picked me up. Turing around, I found it was Anoush who helped me up. A wave of embarrassment swept over me and I was even at a loss at that moment. “Just stand up and go on to run. I will keep you company.” Anoush encouraged me with a big smile on his face. Looking into his faithful eyes, I realized that he was not cheating me and that he was really helping me. He just forgot the quarrel between us. I stood up and began to run with him.
When Anoush and I crossed the finish line, the audience at present applauded. Without any preparation, I was hugged by Anoush tightly. Suddenly, I felt regretful to break up with him. Then, I mustered up my courage to say sorry to Anoush. “Thank you and I am so sorry to you, my dear friend. I should not have quarreled with you.” “Just forget it. You know, we are good friends.” Anoush said. I felt more than happy and lucky to have such a friend in my life. Though quarrels between friends could not be avoided, as long as we have him/her in our mind, we would be good friends forever.
