Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher I do—mine was Mrs. White. I always thought she must be some distant relative of Walt Disney’s Snow White, with her bright blue eyes, short dark hair, red lips and fair skin.
I don’t remember much about what we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we used to write a lot. Every time I brought my writings home, mom would notice many mistakes. Bu no red corrections and always a star. Somotimes-even a Good! It made my heart soar with happiness, but it worried my mom. One day when she met Mrs. White, she asked her why she never corrected my mistakes—why she never red-penciled in the right spellings or pointed out grammatical errors.
Mom said Mrs. White replied, “The children are just beginning to get excited about using words, about forming sentences. I-don’t want to dampen that onthusiasm with red ink. Spelling and grammar can wait. The wonder of words won’t.” Maybe those weren’t her exact words—this was long ago, and mom could only recall the gist. The rest I added in. I grew up learning to use words with loving confidence like that.
Now it occurs to me that if Mrs. White had used her red pen more precisely, I probably wouldn’t be telling you about this now. I look back and think she must have been a rather extraordinary teacher—for exercising such red-pen restraint, to allow the pleasure, wonder, and excitement of expression to flower—however faultily—like that.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot—even after I entered high school. I’d often put the “a” before the “e”—a mistake that always fiustrated my teacher. But I’m glad I never stopped using it. “Pretty” is easier to spell, but it doesn’t hold as much meaning as you want to convey sometimes. Thanks to Mrs. White, I never hesitate to write what I mean—even with imperfect spelling. Because life isn’t “pretty”—it’s “baeutiful”: flawed yet truly wonderful.
4. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The author’s attitude to schoolwork. B. The teacher’s response to the writings.
C. The author’s academic performance. D. The teacher’s disservice to the students.
5. What can we know from Mrs. White’s reply
A. She was too busy to mark every paper. B. She believed spelling was unimportant.
C. She couldn’t correct all the students’ mistakes. D. She was careful not to ruin the joy of expression.
6. What does the author think of Mrs. White’s way of teaching
A. Far-reaching. B. Contradictory. C. Conventional. D. Practical.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To honor a respected kindergarten teacher.
B. To share an unforgettable learning experience.
C. To tell how early encouragement fuels lifelong confidence.
D. To prove technical accuracy is less important than creativity.
C
One of the most remarkable aspects of the human brain is its ability to recognize and describe patterns. However, some patterns are incredibly difficult to understand, such as the concept of turbulence (湍流). Turbulence is a complex phenomenon that is hard to describe mathematically. But artists like Wincenty Van Gogh have caught its essence in their paintings.
In June 1889, Van Gogh painted “The Starry Night,” which shows a blue night sky filled with spinning clouds and whirls (旋涡) of stars. Unlike their earlier painters, Van Gogh and other Impressionist artists represented light differently. They seemed to catch its movement; like the shining of stars or the wavy-light travels across water. This effect is caused by brightness, the strength of light in the colors on the canvas.
In 1941, Russian mathcmatician Andrey Kolmogorov put forward a mathematical model for turbulence. This model is very close to how a turbulent flow works, though a full understanding of turbulence is still not achieved. In 2004, scientists using the Hubble Space Telescope saw whirls in a far-away cloud of dust and gas that were like Van Gogh’s “Starry Night”.
This discovery motivated scientists from Mexico, Spain, and England to study the brightness in Van Gogh’s paintings. They found that many of his works, especially those from his times of great worry and anxiety, contain patterns of turbulent fluid structurcs similar to Kolmogorov’s model. The researchers turned the paintings into digital form and measured the changes in brightness. They concluded that the paintings are like fluid turbulence in behavior.
It’s appealing to say that Van Gogh’s genius enabled him to describe turbulence.
However, it’s also incredible to think that during a period of intense suffering, Van Gogh was able to perceive and represent one of the most challenging concepts in nature. His unique vision united the mysteries of movement, fluid, and light in a way that continues to inspire both scientists and artists.
8. What made Van Gogh and other Impressionists unique
A. They painted more night scenes. B. They preferred to use brighter colors.
C. They focused more on light’s movement. D. They were better at representing turbulence.
9. Why does the author mention Kolmogorov’s model in paragraph 3
A. To introduce a scientific breakthrough.
B. To criticize the limitations of 20-century physics.
C. To compare different mathematical models of turbulence.
D. To provide a framework for analyzing the paintings’ patterns.
10 What can be inferred from paragraph 4
A. Van Gogh’s mental state might have influenced his creation.
B. Van Gogh was inspired by scientific discoveries of his time.
C. Van Gogh had a deep understanding of mathematical models.
D Van Gogh’s later works showed less connection with turbulence.
11. What is the best title for the passage
A. Art and the Mystery of Turbulence
B. The Impressionists and the Science of Light
C. Catching the Light: Van Gogh’s Artistic Genius
D. Art Meets Science: Van Gogh’s Turbulent Vision
D
Have you ever felt that mosquitoes love you more than others While your friends remain untouched, you find yourself constantly hunted by these annoying insects. Well, it’s not your imagination. Science confirms that around 20% of people are naturally high attractors, or mosquito magnets, who are more often targeted year after year — and biology is to blame.
The primary signal that draws mosquitoes from a distance is the carbon dioxide (CO ) we breathe out. Capable of spotting a stream of CO from up to 30 meters away, mosquitoes use this gas as a “dinner bell” signaling that a warm-blooded host is nearby. Once they pick up this clue, they start moving toward the source.
However, as mosquitoes get closer, your unique body smell becomes the deciding factor. Our skin is home to millions of microbes (微生物) that break down natural oils and sweat, producing a complex cocktail of chemical compounds. According to a significant study published in the journal Cell, individuals who are mosquito magnets tend to produce much higher levels of specific types of acids on their skin. These acids act like an irresistible smell to mosquitoes. In contrast, those less attractive produce more ketones, which seem to mask their smells, making them invisible to mosquitoes.
To test this, researchers designed an experiment in a large enclosed arena — about the size of a land-skating rink. They released mosquitoes and observed how they chose between different people. The results showed that mosquitoes consistently flew toward those with certain skin smells.
Other factors like body heat, sweat, and genetic makeup also play a role. Since our skin microbiome is largely genetically determined, being a mosquito magnet is often a matter of bad luck.
Importantly, this research isn’t just about avoiding itchy bites. Every year, millions of people die from mosquito-borne diseases. Understanding how mosquitoes find us can inspire scientists to find better solutions. So next time mosquitoes buzz around you, remember: it’s not a curse—it’s science. And soon, we might have smarter ways to outsmart these bothersome biters.
12. What function does carbon dioxide serve for mosquitoes
A. It acts as an appetizer. B. It provides a nutrient source.
C. It helps locate human’s presence. D. It distinguishes human skin types.
13. What is the key factor that makes some people more attractive to mosquitoes
A. The microbes living on their skin. B. The natural oils produced by their skin.
C. A great deal of CO breathed out by them. D. Large amounts of certain acids on their skin.
14. What can be inferred from the text
A. Body temperature is the most critical factor.
B. Being a mosquito magnet is largely unchangeable.
C. Diet and lifestyle habits influence mosquitoes’ choices.
D. People can improve their genetic makeup to avoid mosquitoes.
15. According to the text, what might be the significance of the research
A. Revealing how mosquitoes find targets.
B. Explaining why some people attract mosquitoes.
C. Contributing to how we battle against mosquitoes.
D. Proving that smell affects mosquitoes’ biting preferences.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有 两项为多余选项。
With life getting more demanding and hectic all the time, it seems there’s only one way to cope — multitasking! But can we actually multitask The term was first used in the 1960s to describe computer performance. ____16____ Our brain is not designed to handle too many tasks at the same time.
Some psychologists model visual attention as being like a spotlight. It can only be shone in one direction at any one time. Our primary focus — what we’re paying most attention to — is like the brightly lit area in the centre of the spotlight.
___17___ For instance, in the Counting Balls experiment, when concentrating on counting bouncing balls, most observers miss obvious elements like the smiley face on one of the balls. This shows just how powerful focused attention is, but it also means we can miss things that right under our noses — an effect known as inattention blindness.
The famous Invisible Monkey Experiment further confirms this. When asked to concentrate exclusively on how often basketball players in white pass the ball, most people completely miss the monkey walking across the screen. ____18____
This is a particular problem when we try to multitask. We can switch attention between tasks, but overloaded attention leads to mistakes. This doesn’t mean all dual-tasking is impossible, though. ____19____ for example, it’s achievable to read a book and listen to music at the same time. However, driving while on the phone even hands-free is risky: phone calls create mental images, using the same visual resources needed for driving, making us miss dangers.
___20___ If you’re feeling like you should be doing seventeen things at once, remember, that’s just not the way your brain is wired.
A. Divided attention results in errors.
B. Human attention is a very precious resource.
C. The human brain, however, functions differently.
D. It works if the two tasks rely on different mental resources.
E. Multitasking makes us inefficient at best, dangerous at worst.
F. People just don’t have the capacity to process everything at once.
G. Though we take in vast information, only a little catches our attention.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
It was a busy afternoon in a London restaurant. Sunlight streamed through the windows, spilling over the white tablecloths. Mia, an 11-year-old student, had just finished her school’s first-aid class and now sat in a corner, flipping through her notes from the lesson.
Her mom chatted on the phone nearby, tasting coffee. Laughter and clattering dishes filled the air. Suddenly, a strange sound cut through the noise. Mia looked up, curious.
A woman in a blue dress had been drinking bubble tea. Now she froze, her eyes wide. She couldn’t breathe, and panic flooded her face. She held her throat tightly with both hands — the exact universal sign of choking in Mia’s notebook.
She tried to nod toward her bubble tea, then attempted to cough — but no sound escaped. A waiter passing by noticed and leaned in, confused. “You alright Want some water ” He reached for her half-empty glass. Shc shook her head violently, tapping her chest in short bursts. But he just patted her back gently, thinking she’d swallowed wrong — unaware some hard food in the bubble tea was blocking her airway. Her face turned red, then purple, and she started to collapse forward.
Mia’s heart raced. This was exactly like her first-aid lesson at school. Another waiter hurried over. The two stood there, one grabbing a water glass, the other reaching for his phone to call an ambulance, both panicking. “What do we do ” one asked. “Pat her harder ” the other replied hesitantly, hands hanging uselessly in the air.
Mia shot to her feet, her chair making a loud noise against the floor. “I know first aid!” she shouted. The waiters spoke nervously, too panicked to hear. She stepped closer, voice cracking with urgency, “I can help—I learned this in school!” They glanced at her, then turned back to the woman, dismissing the 11-year-old out of hand.
The woman slid down in her chair her lips fading to a sickly blue. Mia’s eyes fixed on the woman’s worsening condition. Every second felt like a lifetime—she had to act, and fast.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“She’s choking — let me help!” Mia shouted, pushing past onlookers.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With a sudden cough, the food was instantly forced out.
