One spring morning many years ago, I was on southeastern Alaska’s Kupreanof Island when I saw a huge wolf caught in a trap. From her appearance, I realized it was a mother wolf and that somewhere hungry pups （小崽）were waiting for her. I guessed she had been trapped only a few days. So her pups were probably still alive, hungry, surely no more than a few miles away. But I thought if I released the wolf, she would tear me to pieces.
So I decided to search for her pups instead. Following some footprints, I finally found four tiny pups. One by one, I placed them in a bag and headed back. When the mother wolf spotted me, she stood up, possibly picking up the smell of her young. I released the pups, and they raced to her.
What next I wondered. The mother wolf was clearly suffering. Yet each time I moved in her direction, she let out a threatening sound.
I put up a shelter for myself and was soon asleep nearby. At dawn, I was awakened by the four pups sniffing at my face and hands. I glanced toward the anxious mother wolf. If I could only win her confidence, I thought. It was her only hope. Over the next few days, I fed her, talked gently with her and played with the pups. But the big animal never took her eyes off me. When I was beginning to lose hope, at dusk on the fifth day, I saw a wagging （摇摆）of her tail. I moved within the length of her chain. She remained still. My heart in my mouth, I slowly placed my hand on the wolf’s injured leg. “OK,” I said, “We’ll have you out of there.” I pressed and the trap sprang open, the wolf pulled free.
Slowly, she headed toward me. She smelled my hands and arms and then began licking （添）my fingers. I was astonished. This went against everything I’d ever heard about wolves. Yet, strangely, it all seemed so natural.
24. What did the writer do after he discovered the mother wolf
A. He looked for the pups B. He set up a trap.
C. He put the wolf in a bag D. He frightened off the wolf.
25. Why did the writer stay with the wolves for 5 days
A. To study the habit of the wolves. B. To gain the trust of the mother wolf.
C. To witness the growth of the pups. D. To experience the charm of the wild
26. How did the writer feel when he was trying to remove the trap
A. Nervous. B. Proud.
C. Relieved. D. Hopeless.
27. The text delivers the message that ________.
A. creatures are born equal
B. having comes before giving
C. wagging wolves seldom bite
D. kindness deserves acceptance
C
Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don’t even notice that they’re doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.
A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won’t feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time Don’t keep your legs crossed.
Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis （麻痹）of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.
So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.
28. What can we learn about crossing one’s legs
A. It is a very bad social habit.
B. It can do harm to people’s health.
C. It is usually practiced deliberately.
D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.
29. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can ________.
A. affect your blood pressure B. resist gravity effectively
C. lead to heart attacks easily D. improve the function of legs
30. In the third paragraph “pins and needles” probably means ________.
A. being highly flexible B. being a little tired
C. serious muscle injuries D. slight sharp pains
31. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To compare common habits. B. To evaluate effects of an experiment.
C. To give readers some advice. D. To introduce research methods.
D
The rainforests of eastern Australia are home to a stinging （刺人的）tree known as Dendrocnide. Many people call it the gympie-gympie tree — a name given to the tree by indigenous Australians. It’s covered with sharp, needle-like hairs that carry poison. If you brush up against a gympie-gympie tree, you won’t forget it anytime soon. The pain can stay with you for hours, days or weeks. In some cases, it’s been reported to stay for months.
Scientists have long looked for the source of this powerful sting. Now researchers at the University of Queensland have discovered what makes this stinging plant so painful. After carefully studying different kinds of gympie-gympie trees, the scientists were able to separate out different chemicals that the trees produce. This allowed them to identify a group of chemicals that they believed was responsible for the pain.
The researchers created artificial versions of these chemicals, which they call “gympietides”. Sure enough, when the scientists injected mice with gympietides, the mice licked （舔）at the places where they’d been injected, indicating that they hurt in those places. When the scientists studied the way gympietides were built, they found that they formed a knot-like shape. The shape makes the chemical very stable, which helps explain how the pain lasts so long.
The knot-like shape of the gympietides was similar to the shape of poisons produced by poisonous spiders and con e snails. The scientists were surprised to see three very different kinds of life all use similar poisons. Spiders and cone snails carry poisons because they catch food by stinging other creatures. It’s not clear how stinging helps the gympie-gympie tree.
Though the tree’s sting may stop some animals from eating it, it doesn’t stop all animals. Beetles and pademelons （small relatives of the kangaroo）are able to eat the plant without trouble.
32. A touch on the stinging tree is unforgettable because ________.
A. it has an unusual appearance
B. it is extremely rare in nature
C. the pain caused by it remains long
D. touching it creates a quite strange feeling
33. What do scientists fail to find out about the stinging tree
A. What makes it so painful.
B. What poisons it produces.
C. The consequences of its sting.
D. How it benefits from the sting.
34. What does the text imply about the stinging tree
A. It produces the same poisons as spiders.
B. Poisonous as it is, it also has natural enemies.
C. Animals are wise enough to stay away from it.
D. Only one chemical in it causes pain to the toucher.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Stinging Trees’ Secrets Exposed
B. Warning: Trees That Can Poison You
C. Strange Tree Species Found in Australia
D. Ways to Avoid Being Hurt by Stinging Trees

How to Help a Friend with a Broken Heart
It can be difficult to see a friend in pain, especially if she’s just suffered a broken heart. 36 While you can’t fix your friend’s problems or take away her pain, you can support her in her healing process.
Work out.
Working out is a healthy way for your friend to deal with his emotions, because it increases the chemicals in his brain that produce pleasing feelings. 37 Maintaining a schedule will help your friend to get through his issues.
Listen.
It’s important for your friend to have someone she can trust. People who are hurting can benefit from feeling heard and understood, aiding in their emotional problems. If you’re not sure how to be a good listener for your friend, ask her what she needs. 38
Help your friend make a list.
39 If you can help your friend make a list of how great he is, what his strengths are, or how great his life is, it can help him in the healing process. When you divert your friend’s focus away from his pain and toward something positive instead, you can help him start thinking and feeling more positive.
40
Sometimes you just need a moment to be a little funny, a little serious and a little healing. If you have a releasing ceremony with your friend, it can provide all of these aspects. What you do is take objects that remind your friend of something sad, have your friend write a letter to release it, or take a picture of the sad thing and throw it away.
A. Losing a friend has doesn’t mean losing everything.
B. Have a releasing ceremony.
C. Set up times to meet up with your friend at the gym.
D. Feeling sad is not a natural thing.
E. Lists are a great way to get your brain on a roll.
F. See if she wants advice and respect her answer.
G. She may have trouble finding enjoyment in life.

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。
Mrs. Miller was our next-door neighbor. Her husband died two years ago. She had no children and no relatives that we knew of. She was gentle and kind and my sister Laurel and I considered her our special friend.
One December, Mrs. Miller was ill in hospital. Laurel and I were busy making Christmas presents, and we wondered what to make for Mrs. Miller. We couldn’t bear seeing her come home before Christmas to an empty house with no holiday decorations. Then we lit upon the idea of decorating a small tree that would greet her with lights and cheer. We were wondering how to carry out our plan when the answer appeared.
I was in Miss Johnson’s sixth grade class that year, and we decorated a small tree with paper-link chains and ornaments （装饰物）we’d made in art class. It was beautiful. Best of all, it had to be removed from the classroom before Christmas vacation.
Miss Johnson said there would be a drawing （抽签）for the tree. We’d each write our name on a piece of paper and put it in the box she had prepared. On the last day of school before vacation, she’d draw a name from the box, and that student could take the tree home.
Great! That was exactly what I was longing for! So I wrote my name “Helen Wheeler” neatly on a piece of paper and folded it carefully. As I put it into the box, I whispered to Miss Johnson that I really hoped I’d win the tree because my sister and I wanted to give it to our neighbor who was sick and lonely. Though there were 30 children in the class and each might win the tree, I was somehow certain that I would get it because our cause was good: We wanted to make Mrs. Miller happy.
The day before vacation finally arrived. Laurel and I usually walked to and from school, but that day I persuaded Mom to pick us up in her car after school in case I really got the tree.
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。
Before school was over, Miss Johnson announced it was time for the drawing. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next evening we welcomed Mrs. Miller back at her door.

Dear fellow students,
I have noticed that many of us have developed a habit of relying on AI to solve problems. While AI can be helpful, it’s important to remember that it cannot replace critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
I suggest that we use AI as a tool, but let’s make sure we understand and analyze the information ourselves. We should also encourage each other to discuss and brainstorm solutions in study groups, which not only enhances our understanding but also improves our communication and teamwork skills.
Let’s take control of our learning process and not become overly dependent on AI.
The Students Union
One Possible Version:
Before school was over, Miss Johnson announced it was time for the drawing. My heart beat fast as Miss Johnson put her hand into the box and drew one folded piece of paper out. Then she unfolded the paper, looked at it and announced. “Helen has won the tree!” I was beside myself with excitement! And I’ll never forget the astonishment on my mother’s face as my sister and I carried the tree to her car. Since Mom had a key to Mrs. Miller’s house, we took the tree straight to her living room and set it up on a table. It looked so beautiful!
The next evening we welcomed Mrs. Miller back at her door. She slowly made her way into the house and turned on the lights, greeted by the sparkling Christmas tree. Mrs. Miller was rooted to the spot, looking surprised. Then a sweet smile appeared on her face and tears welled up in her eyes. “Thank you so much.” she said softly. While Laurel and I were excitedly telling the story to our parents, it suddenly dawned on me that Miss Johnson had helped me in a secret way: Though she had announced my name, she never showed anyone what was written on that piece of paper!
