二、阅读理解
Elephant ReserveCountry: Thailand This is a working vacation at a wildlife centre. Anyone can become a volunteer if he/she agrees to help the elephant keepers with tasks. Daily tasks Gather the elephants at 6:30 am. Take them to look for food in the forest. Clean the enclosure(围场). Swim with the elephants in the lake in the afternoon. If volunteers want to relax after work, they can watch satellite television. How this vacation helps If these elephants hadn’t been rescued, they would still be living on the streets of Bangkok. The rural environment is much better for them than the urban environment where there is lots of pollution. Your Comment “I love working with these huge gentle animals.”
Gorilla safari(观赏野兽的旅行) Countries: Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda Departures(出发): 2—3 departures per month from Aug. to Dec. Extras: permit ￡220 If you’re lucky, you’ll see lions, elephants and rhinos during this safari. The highlight(最好的部分) of the trip is the opportunity to see gorillas in the mountain forests. However, you must be in good health — if a gorilla caught a cold, it would be extremely harmful to its whole family. How this vacation helps There are only about 600 gorillas left in the world as human activity has reduced the area where they can live. When you buy a permit, this will pay for the protection of the national park. Your comment “I’ll surely go back as soon as I have enough money!”
Polar bear watching Area & Country: Arctic, Canada Departures: sixty trips between Oct. 1—Nov.19. Every October and November groups of polar bears gather in Hudson Bay. As they are normally lonely creatures, this is unusual. The bears wait for the ocean to freeze so that they can hunt for seals, so this is the perfect opportunity to see them. Extra activities include dog sledding(狗拉雪橇) and a night trip to see the Northern Lights. How this vacation helps If the Arctic ice cap melts due to global warming, polar bears will be in danger. We give a share of our profits(利益) to the charity that protects polar bears. Your comment “These terrible bears get all the liquid they need from their food.”
21．What will elephant volunteers do
A．Sweep the enclosure of elephants.
B．Take food for elephants at 6:30 am.
C．Watch satellite television on elephants.
D．Wash elephants in the lake in the afternoon.
22．What do we know about the Gorilla safari
A．You can find gorillas in Kenya and Canada.
B．You will get a cold in the mountain forests.
C．Visitors need to pay $220 to see gorillas.
D．There are about 10 trips to visit gorillas.
23．What’s the aim of these activities
A．To help build more national parks.
B．To help protect the wild animals.
C．To help deal with the pollution in cities.
D．To help solve the problem of global warming.
Do plants listen to music How can a plant possibly respond to music Well, plants breathe through their many mouths, which are also known as stomata and it has been discovered that plant stomata respond to music!
A few years ago, scientists at the University of California, San Diego discovered what controls a plant’s stomata.The two cells that form the stoma consist of specialized cells adjusted to the resonant(共鸣的)frequency of calcium(钙). When exposed to this frequency the stomata close. However, if the frequency isn’t exactly right the cells will open again within an hour.This happens even if the concentration of calcium is high enough that the stomata would normally close.
When specific music or bird songs cause the plant to vibrate(颤动), but not at the exact frequency for calcium resonance, the stomata will open after a misjudgment of time, even though the plant would keep them closed under normal circumstances.
Testing has shown that a leaf fertilizer(肥料)applied to the plant will have more effect on the development and growth of the plant if its stomata are wide open. This is quite logical, because plants absorb the leaf fertilizer through their binations of frequency and leaf fertilizer are available for many different crops. However, if the stomata are forced to remain open, the plant won’t be able to control the amount of water lost and so it risks dehydration(脱水). As a result, exposing plants to music for over 3 hours a day could endanger their health.There could also be bad effects on plants if the volume or frequency is too high.
It isn’t exactly clear how music influences the development and growth of plants, but more and more is being discovered about resonance physics and we’re closer than ever to solid scientific proof and theories in this area. Maybe, in twenty years’ time people will laugh if you say plants don’t have ears!
24．Why does the author ask the questions in Paragraph 1
A．To express his doubts.
B．To present different ideas.
C．To describe the lifestyle of plants.
D．To introduce points for discussion.
25．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．The reopening of the cells.
B．The change in frequency.
C．The frequency of calcium.
D．The closing of the stomata.
26．It call be inferred from the text that .
A．future plants are likely to have ears
B．how music affects plant growth is widely known
C．growers must be careful when exposing plants to music
D．the stomata don’t affect the effect of leaf fertilizer on plants
27．Which can be the best title for the text
A．Benefits of Music to Plants
B．Influence of Music on Plants
C．How to Improve Plant Growth
D．How Do Plants Listen Without Ears
In his 1936 work How to Win Friends and Influence People, Dale Carnegie wrote: “I have come to the conclusion that there is only one way to get the best of an argument — and that is to avoid it.” This distaste for arguments is common, but it depends on a mistaken view of arguments that causes problems for our personal and social lives — and in many ways misses the point of arguing in the first place.
Carnegie would be right if arguments were fights, which is how we often think of them. Like physical fights, verbal (言语的) fights can leave both sides bloodied. Even when you win, you end up no better off. You would be feeling almost as bad if arguments were even just competitions — like, say, tennis tournaments. Pairs of opponents hit the ball back and forth until one winner comes out from all who entered. Everybody else loses. This kind of thinking explains why so many people try to avoid arguments.
However, there are ways to win an argument every time. When you state your position, formulate (阐述) an argument for what you claim and honestly ask yourself whether your argument is any good. When you talk with someone who takes a stand, ask them to give you a reason for their view and spell out their argument fully. Assess its strength and weakness. Raise objections (异议) and listen carefully to their replies. This method will require effort, but practice will make you better at it.
These tools can help you win every argument — not in the unhelpful sense of beating your opponents but in the better sense of learning about what divides people, learning why they disagree with us and learning to talk and work together with them. If we readjust our view of arguments — from a verbal fight or tennis game to a reasoned exchange through which we all gain respect and understanding from each other — then we change the very nature of what it means to “win” an argument.
28．What is the author’s attitude toward Carnegie’s understanding of argument
A．Critical. B．Supportive. C．Tolerant. D．Uncertain.
29．Why do many people try to avoid arguments
A．They lack debating skills. B．They may feel bad even if they win.
C．They fear being ignored. D．They are not confident in themselves.
30．What does the underlined phrase “spell out” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Defend. B．Explain. C．Conclude. D．Repeat.
31．What is the key to “winning” an argument according to the author
A．Sense of logic. B．Solid supporting evidence.
C．Proper manners. D．Understanding from both sides.
People’s tendency to follow trends, especially on social media, is definitely a common phenomenon. What does psychology say about trend following and is there a way to break free from the desire to follow the newest craze
According to psychologist Pamela Rut, following trends doesn’t fully show character weakness. Rather, it is an entirely natural behavior fixed firmly into humans’ basic need to belong to a social group and establish connections with others.
Historically, following trends was critical for our survival. Archaeologists have uncovered evidence that early humans worked together to transport stone tools over long distances about 2 million years ago in what is now Kenya—cooperation that allowed them to survive in a bad environment. And though following a trend on social media isn’t exactly as important as outrunning a saber-toothed tiger (剑齿虎), human evolution has programmed our brains to be receptive to social signals.
Another contributing factor the social cognition (认知)—the processes that determine what we notice and how we respond to others—largely takes place in the parts of the brain that oversee sight, pattern recognition, decision-making, and similar functions. “Thanks to our humans’ complex cognitive systems, our brains are really good at identifying patterns and motivating behavior that communicates our social status. As a result, you can use almost anything to signal your membership or connection with a social group. Giving off the right social signals lets others know which group you belong to or want to engage with and those signals are monitored and interpreted by others. Referred to as identity signaling, these behaviors can range from putting a bumper sticker on a car to selecting a brand of clothing,” said Rut.
Almost everyone follows trends in social groups, without exception. However, tweens, teens and young adults are especially likely to follow trends, including risky ones, due to their heightened desire for acceptance and belonging among peers. Therefore, it’s of great significance to guide them during their journey towards maturity.
32．What does Rut think of following trends
A．Risky. B．Funny. C．Strange. D．Reasonable.
33．What is the hidden meaning of identity signaling
A．A great thirst for belonging. B．Blind pursuit of novelty.
C．Good taste in fashion industry. D．A true reflection of personality.
34．Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage
A．Trend-following is a harmful behavior that must be stopped.
B．Social media makes trend-following essential for modern survival.
C．Trend-following is a natural human behavior driven by social needs.
D．Trend-following is an unchangeable human instinct proven by science.
35．What will the following-up paragraph most probably discuss
A．Insights into the coming trends. B．Tips on following trends sensibly.
C．Psychology behind trend following. D．Parental guidance in kids’ future jobs.
Creativity is here and there. We see it in the architecture of our buildings, the design of everyday objects like our phones, the clothes we wear, and the music we listen to. Being creative is enjoyable and productive. 36 So what can you practically do to help develop your creativity
Practice regularly and consistently. It is extremely crucial. One person who showed its importance was the artist Pablo Picasso. He is famous for creating daring new painting styles, but it wasn’t by accident. He spent years experimenting with the traditional rules of art. 37
Learn from others to stimulate your creativity. You can gain new insights and techniques by studying the works of other artists, designers, or professionals. 38 Additionally, interacting with fellow creatives can provide valuable feedback and support, helping you to grow and develop your skills.
Work in a field you love to be creative. 39 Thus, choose a field you enjoy rather than something you feel you ought to do. Then enjoyment becomes the reward, which in turn motivates you to keep being creative. If you know your field inside out you will have the confidence to take risks and allow your creativity to blossom.
40 From techniques that allow your mind to think more originally, to learning from past creative masters, there are practical ways to help you use your imagination to create something original. If you direct your energy thoughtfully, you can learn to be more creative.
A．Unlock your own creativity.
B．Apply creativity in all areas of life.
C．This can involve attending workshops or reading books.
D．You are more motivated by love of what you do than else.
E．Creativity is an essential engine that drives progress in every field.
F．For some of us, it comes naturally; however, others might need help.
G．He produced ground-breaking works like Les Demoisellesd’ Avignon in the end.

六、书面表达
67．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。
When I was in elementary school, I wasn’t very good at sports. I was always the last to be picked for teams, and I never won a race. I thought being slow and weak made me a failure. But one day, my P. E. teacher, Mr Harris, said something that changed my mind. He had been watching me struggle during a running drill, and after the class, he came over to talk to me.
“You may not be the fastest,” he said, “but you have something even more important. You don’t give up.” I didn’t really understand what he meant at the time. How could not quitting be better than winning In my mind, if you weren’t first, then you lost. But Mr Harris kept encouraging me. He told me that winning wasn’t everything and that sometimes trying hard and not giving up was even more valuable.
At first, I didn’t believe him, but then he suggested I start practicing a little every day after school. “Don’t focus on becoming the fastest,” he said. “Just focus on improving, even if it’s a little bit each day.” I decided to give it a try, although I wasn’t sure it would make a difference. I began running around the track after school, one lap, then two, slowly increasing my endurance. Over the next few weeks, I noticed small changes. I could run longer without getting tired, and I was improving, even if I wasn’t winning yet.
As the school’s annual race day approached, I wondered if I should sign up. I still wasn’t fast enough to win, but Mr Harris encouraged me once more. “The race isn’t about being first,” he reminded me. “It’s about showing what you can do when you don’t give up. That’s real success.”
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
A few days later, I signed up for the race.

W: Good idea. I still have two free ride tickets.
2．C
【原文】W: My parents set a 10 p. m. phone limit. I thought it was too strict.
M: Did it help
W: Actually, yes. I fall asleep faster, and my scores went up.
3．A
【原文】W: I tried an AI-powered store yesterday. You scan the phone at the gate, grab what you need, and just walk out - no queues.
M: The convenience is great, and the receipt appears in the app within seconds.
W: True, but I’m worried about my data - every item’s tied to my account.

【原文】W: Where’s my burger The app says “delivered” but my stomach says “liar”. I’ve been staring at the door like a dog waiting for a treat.
M: Chill, it’s probably stuck in the lift again. The lift thinks it’s a fridge. It is slower than a snail on a rainy day, especially around dinner time.
W: That lift eats more food than I do. It should pay rent.
M: Remember last week when the pizza rode up and down like a VIP with a free ticket
W: Yep, extra tour, cold cheese, no tip.
M: I’ll call the rider. He is probably chatting with the guard about the weather.
W: Tell him I’m hungry enough to eat my own shoe, socks included.
M: He’s on his way. He says he took a selfie with the doorbell and smiled wide.
W: Great, my dinner’s now Insta-famous and I bet it is proud of itself.
M: And let’s be real. Next time, we tip extra and beg for “rocket delivery”, so they run up the stairs instead. No more lift chaos.
18．B 19．B 20．A
【原文】Good morning, everyone! Last week, I was dead set on buying a new phone for Black Friday. I’d been eyeing the latest model for months, dreaming of its bigger screen and faster camera. I woke up early to score a deal online, but right when I clicked “buy,” the website crashed. Frustrated, I headed to the mall, figuring I’d get the phone in person. On the way, I passed a tiny pop-up repair shop. It was run by two teens. Curious, I held up my old phone — its screen was cracked, and it sometimes froze — and asked if they could help. For just ten bucks, they swapped the broken screen for a recycled one. When they handed it back, my “broken” phone felt brand-new. That night, I used my fixed phone to film my little sister’s dance recital. One small repair saved me hundreds of dollars, and let me hold onto a precious memory. So maybe this Black Friday taught me something: the real upgrade isn’t the newest model. It’s choosing to see the value in what we already have and using it with fresh love.

66． Green Campus Week: A Meaningful Practice
Last week, our school successfully held the “Green Campus Week” to raise environmental awareness.
The event included various activities such as waste sorting guidance, used item recycling, and campus cleaning. Students actively participated in collecting recyclables and cleaning up the schoolyard. They also learned how to classify different types of waste correctly.
The activity was highly praised by both students and teachers. Many said they not only gained practical knowledge but also felt a sense of achievement in contributing to a greener campus. We believe this event will inspire everyone to continue protecting the environment in daily life.
67．One possible version:
A few days later, I signed up for the race. On the race day, I stood nervously at the starting line, surrounded by faster runners. As expected, when the race started, the others sped ahead of me. About halfway through the course, one of the fastest runners tripped and fell. Without thinking, I stopped running and helped him get back on his feet. “Keep going, don’t worry about me,” he said, but I stayed with him. We crossed the finish line together, much slower than everyone else, but we finished side by side.
After the race, I went to see Mr Harris. He smiled when he saw me and said, “What you did today was more important than winning.” At first, I didn’t understand. I didn’t win the race, after all. But he explained, “You helped someone, and that’s something far greater than crossing the finish line first.” At that moment, I realized he was right. The race wasn’t just about speed; it was about determination and compassion. That day, I learned that real success comes from the heart, not from a gold medal.
