A
With so much beauty of the globe, it’s tough to choose which natural wonders you should visit. Therefore, here are some great national parks that should go to the top of your priority list.
Guilin and Lijiang River National Park
It impresses tourists with its foggy peaks and quiet, peaceful river scenes. You’ll encounter pointed hills with sharp edges, as well as caves and cliffs across the park. Explore by boat for the best views of can’t-miss sights like Elephant Trunk Hill, which looks like an elephant bending over the river to drink water with its trunk.
Arches National Park
You’ll find a great number of natural arches in this eastern Utah national park. The most symbolic of these stone structures are Landscape Arch and Delicate Arch. However, visitors are equally amazed by Balanced Rock and The Windows Section, the latter of which is home to the largest arches in the park.
Rocky Mountain National Park
Including more than 265,000 acres of scenic mountain landscape, the park is home to more than 350 miles of hiking paths, 140-plus lakes and the 48-mile-long Trail Ridge Road, which reaches an altitude of over 12,000 feet. Adventurous visitors will want to choose must-see spots like Longs Peak for splendid views.
Banff National Park
Situated in southwestern Alberta, Canada’s oldest national park is also one of its most beautiful. Visitors can explore Banff National Park on foot along more than 1,000 miles of hiking trails, or drive the scenic Icefields Parkway for breathtaking views of glaciers. For an unforgettable experience, go to the summit of mountain, where you will find a viewing boardwalk, a restaurant, and a theater.
1．Which park is the best for people who enjoy taking a boat tour
A．Guilin and Lijiang River National Park. B．Arches National Park.
C．Rocky Mountain National Park. D．Banff National Park.
2．What can visitors do in Arches National Park

Two pig farmers in Suffolk, East England have succeeded in feeding one million bees after participating in a project that saw them turn over half of their land to wildflowers. Four years ago, brothers Mark and Paul Hayward decided to fill 81 acres of their farm land with wildflowers. This week, a study was carried out monitoring insect activity on the flower-covered land, which found they were feeding one million bees at any time.
“This was our target when we started, to grow enough flowers to feed a million bees on a single day.” Mark said. “We are acutely aware that bees are under threat from modern farming methods and that East England is one of the worst places where bees are seriously suffering from lack of foraging (觅食) diversity,” he continued.
“Every third bite of food you eat can come from bees and we wanted to create an operation on our farm that did not push nature out but rather hugged it—as a central part of our ecology system and our food cycle,” he said.
The farm uses all kinds of seeds which can produce many different wild plants and of course, the bees can get food from different wildflowers.
“We are taking a very small role in helping society restore a balance and this starts with plant diversity to encourage insects, bees, small mammals（哺乳动物）, and birds,” said Paul. “At the end of the day, we see ourselves as caretakers of this land. Between us we have six children and we owe it to them to farm sustainability（持续性）and set an example for the generations to come, ” added Paul.
According to the Bee Conservation Trust, many types of bees have seen their populations decline by 70%, and two species have become extinct in the last century.
Gill Perkins, CEO of the Bee Conservation Trust said, “Thanks to Mark and Paul, at least here, 1 million bees can keep living — a beacon（灯塔）of hope demonstrating what’s possible, which is of great significance for humans now and future.”
4. What can we know about the brothers from the first paragraph
A. They have about 160 acres of land.
B. They grow wild flowers for pigs.
C. They are not good at growing wild flowers.
D. They have to support 1, 000, 000 bees on their land.
5. Why are bees under threat in East England according to Mark
A. They are affected by climate change.
B. There are not enough wildflower varieties for food.
C. Modern farming methods use too many pesticides.
D. They are hunted by other animals.
6. What does Paul mean by saying “we see ourselves as caretakers of this land”
A. They feel responsible for protecting the land sustainably.
B. They are paid to take care of the land by the government.
C. They want to pass the land to their children as inheritance.
D. They believe caring for the land is their job as farmers.
7. What does Gill Perkins think of the brothers’ action
A. It has little impact on bee conservation.
B. It’s a significant contribution to the world.
C. It should be criticized for being too small-scale.
D. It is only beneficial for the brothers’ farm.
C
When you are in another country, it is important to know the language, but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally. Before saying anything, people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation(调查), only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.
In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you”.
In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his/her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right.” However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting and should not be used there.
In the United States, raising your clasped(握紧的) hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made his gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.
There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America, touch is important. Friends touch each other on the arm, for example. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “hello” or “goodbye”.
8．It is very important to know how to communicate nonverbally when you are in another country because ______.
A．most people speak different languages
B．people usually make gestures before saying anything
C．it’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures
D．much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions
9．If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him, his motion means”_____”.
A．yes B．no C．I’ve heard you D．that’s all right
10．The gesture of putting one’s thumb up shouldn’t be used when you are travelling in______.
A．Greece B．Italy C．the United States D．Southeast Asia
11．When the Russian leader put up his clasped hands after the meeting at the White House______.
A．he meant Russia was the winner B．he was insulting America
C．he in fact meant nothing at all D．he made a show of friendship to America
D
A viral (adj.信息迅速走红的) video recently surprised Internet users: a kangaroo holding a plane ticket waited in line at an airport, only to be told by an airline worker that pets couldn’t board. With millions of likes, many shared it as real—until tech experts revealed it was AI-generated. This fun scene shows a key issue: "AI hallucination," when AI creates false but convincing information.
AI hallucination happens because AI systems learn from huge data and "fill in gaps" using patterns. They might invent events, people, or data. For example, some AI has cited fake research papers from top universities. While the kangaroo video is harmless, such "hallucinations" can be risky. A lawyer once used AI to write a legal document with made-up court cases, causing professional troubles. In healthcare, AI trained on inaccurate data could give dangerous advice, misleading students or people seeking online facts.
To avoid being tricked, experts suggest steps. Always cross-check AI answers with trusted sources like textbooks or official websites. Use free fact-checking tools, and most importantly, stay critical. Remember: AI doesn’t "think" like humans. If something seems odd—like a kangaroo at an airport—question it logically. In China, new rules require clear labels on AI-generated content to help people distinguish real from fake.
As AI evolves, it’s crucial to balance AI’s advantages and risks. By verifying information and thinking critically, we can make the most of AI’s innovations while staying alert to its pitfalls(n.陷阱；隐患).
12. The underlined phrase "AI hallucination" probably refers to ______.
A. AI’s ability to generate creative content
B. AI’s production of fake but convincing information
C. AI’s failure to recognize real events
D. AI’s training on inaccurate data sets
13. What can we infer about AI systems from the passage
A. They create fake information to fill data gaps.
B. They think logically like human beings.
C. They always cite non-existent research.
D. They perform better with inaccurate data.
14. What is the main purpose of the third paragraph
A. To explain how AI hallucination works.
B. To warn about the risks of AI hallucination.
C. To compare different cases of AI misuse.
D. To suggest solutions for AI problems.
15. Which of the following best represents the author’s attitude toward AI
A. Suspicious: AI should be banned due to risks.
B. Optimistic: AI’s benefits outweigh its disadvantages.
C. Critical: AI hallucination is uncontrollable.
D. Balanced: Use AI wisely with caution.

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。
Technology has revolutionized classrooms, offering tools that enhance both teaching and learning. AI-assisted tools create customized teaching plan easily and save preparation time. 16 For instance, virtual reality (VR) allows students to explore historical sites or dive into the human bloodstream, making abstract concepts tangible.
Traditional textbooks are rapidly becoming outdated relics of the past. Online platforms like Khan Academy have emerged as game-changers. These platforms offer a range of free courses, spanning various subjects from mathematics to history, thus enabling children in remote areas or those from poor families to access quality education. 17
Technology also promotes global collaboration. Tools like Google Classroom revolutionize how students interact and work together. 18 This fosters teamwork and prepares them for modem workplaces where global cooperation is the standard.
19 Many educators are far from skilled in technology. Teachers, especially those who have been in the profession for a long time, may find it difficult to adapt to new technology. They need comprehensive training to integrate tools like AI-driven analytics effectively. Without proper guidance, technology may become a distraction rather than an aid in classroom
Besides, it’s crucial to address ethical (伦理的) issues early. 20 It helps them navigate online information safely and promote network behavior norms. Still, making it clear for them to balance screen time with offline activities is equally vital.
A．However, as with any advancement, challenges exist.
B．This popularization of knowledge bridges educational gaps.
C．Schools are responsible to teach digital citizenship to students.
D．Student-centered apps are developed for entertainment purposes.
E．Over-reliance on devices may harm creativity and critical thinking.
F．Interactive applications make learning more engaging and absorbing.
G．They co-work on projects in real time, breaking down geographical barriers.

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。
During my final year of college, I shared a small dorm room with my classmate Kim. I was never a tidy person — my side of the room always looked like a disaster area, covered with books, shirts, and single socks. Kim, on the other hand, was extremely organized. She labeled each of her drawers and even color-coded her class schedule. She arranged her pens by color and folded her sweaters according to the season; everything had its own spot. Our contrasting habits often made us irritate (惹恼) each other.
One evening in the middle of October, things reached a breaking point. After evening self-study, I casually kicked off my basketball shoes. One of them accidentally slid under Kim’s bed. When she found it, her face turned bright red with anger. She picked up the shoe and threw it violently toward my side. It hit my desk lamp, knocking it over. The lamp fell to the floor, and the light bulb broke into pieces all over the pile of T-shirts I had intended to fold. I jumped up, shouting at her for being so disrespectful. She shouted back, complaining about my constant mess. We both rushed toward the door, each determined to be the first to slam (砰地关上) it shut.
We might not have come back that night if the phone hadn’t rung just then. I sat on my bed, still angry. Kim picked up the phone. From her brief, unsteady responses, I could tell something was wrong. After she hung up, she crawled (匍匐) into her bed, pulled the covers over herself, and began to cry. The room suddenly fell into a heavy silence, filled with a new kind of unease.

Jiuzhaigou National Park, which is located in the southwest of Sichuan Province, is considered one of the greatest natural wonders in China. Whichever and whatever you like, there is an incredible scenery that will appeal to you!
What is the most impressive is its many multi-level waterfalls and colorful lakes. Walking along the path in the park, you will have a chance to see various kinds of rare animals up to 54 species, including national protected animal giant pandas. Enjoying the fascinating park, feeling the peace brought by nature, I thought of an idea. People have benefited quite a lot from the natural park, such as fresh air, clean water and the great view .It’s time for us to repay the nature and protect it if we want people to live in harmony with nature.
If you want to feel the beauty of nature and join the ranks of protecting nature, come to Jiuzhaigou National Park!

As Kim's quiet crying reached my ears, something inside me shifted. The hot anger that had tightened my chest moments before began to dissolve, replaced by a cold, heavy weight of guilt. I stared at the shattered lamp at my feet, a physical representation of the mess I'd contributed to. Without a word, I stood up. I started to collect my odds and ends, clothes and shoes, swept the floor and tidied the table. I even cleaned her side. The simple, repetitive motions felt like a silent apology.
I was so focused that I didn't notice Kim had been watching me cleaning. A soft, watery voice broke the silence. "My mom... she's in the hospital," she whispered, her voice cracking. The reason for her earlier distress hit me with a wave of understanding and shame. "I'm so sorry, Kim," I said, "And I'm sorry about the mess. Really." She gave a weak nod. "And I'm sorry for... the lamp." To my surprise, she slid out of bed and cleaned up the rest of the broken glass with me, a silent partnership in the dim room. That night, we learned that understanding could sometimes grow from the most unexpected cracks.
