I think I might be a NIMBY. This is rather hard for me to accept, because that shortened word(Not In My Back Yard) is typically used to criticize someone as self-centered. I even recall when I first heard the word—at school, some 30 years ago. My teacher explained it was thatUKproperty developers are frequently frustrated by hypocritical homeowners, who claim to be in favour of progress(new housing, for instance), but then object when actual proposals emerge to develop such things in their postcodes.
As a young adult I lived in London, so I never had cause to re vise my opinion. But thenImoved to the green belt where our house is surrounded by fields. Look out, and you see nothing man-made at all, unless the farmer is taking out his combine harvester (I A 4&&Jl). The view was the reason we bought here. Thanks to protective planning regulations introduced decades ago, here was a place where an authentic rural identity had been kept alive.
We could have headed 40 minutes further north, and settled upon another similar looking village with less threat of being swallowed up by the city. But then, that wouldn't be the same at all, would it Our village's closeness to London is the precise thing that elevates it above and beyond its wonderful views—because the fact that it might one day be destroyed and turned to concrete is what makes it most special. It's not just a place you live in. It's a place you feel an urge to protect.
Yet the planning applications come thick and fast, each application abandoning prior commitments to preservation. On a weekly basis, some leaflet drops through my door from local campaigners protesting 177 houses here, 231 houses there. I always sigh and attempt to evaluate these "NIMBY" flyers(17 ) properly, rather than just write a complaint to the council.After all, new houses need to be built somewhere, right
And if we didn't live where we do, these plans wouldn't upset me. It's because of their intention to build so close to my property-In My Back Yard-that I'm so aware of the changes that such developments would bring. So,I add my signature to the flyers.
24. What does the underlined word "hypocritical" in Paragraph l mean
A. Narrow-minded. B. Indifferent.
C. Two-faced. D. Indecisive.
25. Why does the author mention "combine harvester" in Paragraph 2
A. To emphasize the rarity of artificial elements.
B. To promote modern machinery in the village.
C. To explain the ongoing agricultural activities.
D. To indicate damage caused by regulations.
26. Why does the author prefer his village to another similar option
A. He is attracted to its beautiful landscape.
B. He sees the benefits of its urbanization.
C. He finds the convenience of living near London.
D. He feels a duty to save it from development threat.
27. What is the author's attitude toward NIMBYism according to Paragraph 5
A. Supportive. B. Dismissive.
C. Enthusiastic. D. Doubtful.
C
One of the biggest privileges of being a biologist is spending time in remote locations with monkeys and apes, living near these animals in their habitats and experiencing their daily lives. As a 2 Ist-century human, I have an immediate impulse to take pictures of these encounters and share them on social media.
Social media can help scientists raise awareness of the species we study, promote their conservation and obtain jobs and research funding. However, sharing images of wild animals online can also contribute to illegal animal trading and harmful human-wildlife interactions.
My research seeks to find ways for scientists and conservationists to better use the power of social media while avoiding its risks. My colleague, ecologist Cathry n Freund, and I think we have some answers. In our view, wildlife professionals should never include themselves in pictures with animals. We also believe that featuring baby animals and animals interacting with humans leads viewers to think about these creatures in ways that are counterproductive to conservation.
In a study published in 2023, my colleagues and I created two Instagram posts—— one showing a human near a wild gorilla, the other focusing on a gloved human hand holding a loris(蜂猴). Half of these photos carried basic captions(图注) like "Me with a mountain gorilla" or"Me with my research subject"; the other half included more detailed captions that also stated,"All animals are observed" or "captured and handled safely and humanely for research with the proper permits and training."
We showed over 3,000 adults one of these Instagram posts and asked them to complete a survey. The results shocked us. Viewers who saw the Instagram posts with the more detailed caption recognized that the picture was about research. But regardless of the caption, more than half of the viewers agreed or strongly agreed that they would want to seek out a similar experience with the loris or gorilla. Over half of the viewers agreed or strongly agreed that they would want these animals as pets and that the animals would make good pets.
So, the last thing that any responsible conservation biologist studying endangered species wants to do is - encourage this kind of human-wildlife contact.
28. What is one of the privileges of being a biologist, according to the passage
A. Preventing illegal animal trading.
B. Living in remote mountainous areas.
C. Sharing pictures of wildlife on social media.
D. Observing animal behaviors in their habitats.
29. What does the research mentioned in the article aim to achieve
A. To discourage scientists from using social media.
B. To guide scientists to take advantage of social media.
C. To find ways for scientists to use social media responsibly.
D. To raise the awareness of animal conservation among scientists.
30. What can we learn about the research results, according to the passage
A. Viewers showed sympathy for animals when seeing close human-wildlife contact.
B. Viewers desired similar experiences with the animals regardless of detailed captions.
C. Viewers understanding of these Instagram posts was not influenced by the captions.
D. Viewers were more interested in the loris than the gorilla due to the detailed captions.
31. What can be the most suitable title for the text
A. Wildlife selfies harm animals.
B. Post captions help preserve wildlife.
C. No more inhumane animal research.
D. Human-wildlife contact needs to
D
The book has a unique status as a symbol of human culture and civilization. It is a vehicle for sharing stories, spreading knowledge, examining the nature of our extraordinary species and imagining what lies beyond our known world. As Carlyle suggests, books ultimately provide an invaluable and comprehensive record of what it means to be human.
This volume takes a list of fifty of the most influential books of all time, putting each into its historical context. From ancient game-changers like the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Iliad,through sacred texts and works of philosophical reflection by the likes of Confucius and Plato,via scientific essays, historic 'firsts' and cultural works of enduring impact, these are volumes that are at once both products of their societies and vital texts in influencing those same civilizations.
What this selection isn't is a celebration of the literary canon(精品), a reaffirmation of the'best'books from the past. You will find no Austen or Dickens here, nor Dostoyevsky orGarciaMarquez. There is Shakespeare and Cervantes and Tolstoy, but not because they are somehow'better’than those others. Rather, this collection aims to select books that reflect the passage of human history. Most not only reflect, though, but themselves changed how we think and live. By definition, they are 'important'works and, in broad critical terms, 'great'works too. But this book is not concerned with which works are the greatest of all — there are plenty of other volumes that try to figure that out, and good luck to them.
Unavoidably, making a selection such as this is highly subjective. In selecting fifty titles,we can only hope to dip our toe into the vast pool of literature from ages gone by. In doing so, it is foolish to make any claim for definitiveness(确定性). Instead, we are playing a literary game. Which of the fifty choices are undeniable
Which are taking a place better deserved by some other work Everyone will have their own ideas. In the end, it matters little that we all agree. More important is that by turning our minds to the question in the first place, we might meet some unfamiliar works, revisit some old favorites, and gain some ins ight and pleasure in the process.
32. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about
A. The nature of civilization. B. Carlyle's invaltable suggestion.
C. Books' substantial role. D. The uniqueness of humanity.
33. The 50 books were selected for the volume because
A they are the greatest works C. they reflect literary evolution
B. they offer historical evidence D. they have impacted civilizatio
34. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4
A. Literary appreciation is a game for us. B. We select literary works subjectively.
C. Literature is too hard for us to explore. D. We should make claims definitively.
34. What is the ultimate goal of presenting the list of fifty books
A. To inspire literary exploration. B. To promote little-known books.
C. To seek agreement on literature. D. To rank literary works definitively.

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.
Think back to the last time you fell over in a public place. What did you do Perhaps you immediately got back up and carried on exactly as before. I be t you didn't , though. 36 If there were witnesses, then you may well have examined the ground. Or maybe you laughed to yourself of uttered a word like 'Oops!'.
These behaviors seem strange. If you weren't hurt, why do anything at all after the stumble For some reason, such public "disasters" —tripping over something or pushing a 'pull 'door ——cause an anxiety that forces us to engage in curious behaviors.37 Instead, we are always expected to show strangers around us that we are in control and pose no threat to the social order.
When you fall over, you fail to behave yourself, and so immediately pose a threat. 'Is she dangerously out of control ’others might wonder. Fear of social punishment , ost possibly just a dirty look ——will drive you to engage in what is called 'remedial(补救式) work’, but you were affected by an unexpected obstacle. And smiling suggests that you see the incident "as a joke". Behaviors of this kind,even though they might seem like it, are not the results of excessive self-consciousness or awkwardness.39 .
The study, namely 'microsociology', reveals that even the smallest social interactions are of great theoretical interest.40 ; 'whether we interact with strangers or close friends, we'll find that social expectations play a significant role in shaping those interactions'
A. Every encounter is influenced by social rules and statuses
B. It's important to be calm and handle the situation gracefully
C. They're wise responses well adapted to the social world
D You must have first stolen a secretive gl ance at your surroundings
E. We express our identities not only in words but also in how we move
F. Looking at the ground signals that you didn't choose to move strangely
G. This is because there is nothing simple about passing through a public space

What drives people to travel - to leave the comfort of home for the uncertainty of a foreign country Why do we brave 56 unknown--subject ourselves to the stress and tiredness of long 57 (fly), buses, and trains
And what do we expect to find on the other side For many of us, the attraction of travel is change- change from our daily routines, our jobs, and the people and places in our lives. We desire something different, trading comfort 58 uncertainty, affluence(富足) for simplicity, and routine for the thrill of the unfamiliar. Simply changing our surroundings 59 (free) us from our everyday stresses,therefore changing the mindsets 60 our daily lives have shaped. Many travelers hit the road to create lasting memories during their short time on Earth. For such people, looking back on one's life will result in fewer 61 (miss) opportunities and regrets, or so the theory goes.
Given the widespread desire to travel and experience the 62 (novel) of other countries, it seems relevant to ask if there are any real benefits. Luckily for those 63 (experience)a strong desire to travel,it appears there are many. Recently, psychological studies have shown that experiences like overseas trips bring us more happiness 64 possessions do. Foreign experiences have also been shown to improve our cognitive (W kNE) flexibility- the ability of our brains 65(jump) between different ideas. But simply being abroad isn't enough to improve our brains in this way; we need to engage with locals and immerse ourselves in a different culture. Evidently, overseas travel seems to be worth investing our time and money in, if we can.

Returning to Roots
As the economic downturn cast a shadow, my life also took an unexpected tum. The company I had worked for over a decade laid me off, leaving me frustrated with the high cost of urban living. It was time to leave and return to my roots —a rural farmhouse I had inherited from my grandfather.
Driving back to the countryside recalled a flood of memories ——the country road, the wooden cottage, the back yard garden . .. Yes! The garden! As a child, that garden was a magic al place for me, an oasis(绿洲) bursting with colors and life. The bright sunflowers,elegant lilies and a wooden swing had been my playground, where my imagination ran wild among the fluttering(飞舞的) butterflies. I can well remember the gardening time spent with my grandfather. I would follow him around with a small watering can, often more water landing on my shoes than on the thirsty plants. Those were moments of pure joy and laughter,echoed by the splash (雪花) and my grandfather's gentle laugh.
However, as we approached, my heart sank. The house, once the Eden(伊甸园) of rural charm, stood neglected. Windows broken and faded paint falling off the walls, all filled with the unpleasant smell. I hesitated to take a step further. What would my loved oasis be like I da re not imagining.
In contrast, my children, Emma and Jack, were immediately attracted. With delight, they dashed into the house, exploring and playing just as I had at their age. When they opened the door of the back yard, something amazing happened. Through it lay the garden, untended and wild, yet undeniably beautiful. Overgrown with wildflowers and tall grasses, it had a purely natural beauty that seemed to be full of life. The sight sparked an immediate reaction from my kids. They dashed into the garden, with infectious laughter echoing through the air.
Just then, my wife came up, tapping my shoulder. "Nature always finds a way to start over,doesn't it " she said with a smile that warmed my heart. Her words, filled with wisdom and optimism, echoed around us, mixed with the chorus of rustling (沙沙声)) leaves and birdsong.
注意：
1.续写词数应为 150个左右：2.请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答.
The days that followed were filled with repairing and gardening.
In this unexpected return to my roots, I found a new strength and joy.
