It was my birthday, and I was celebrating it as I had for years: Watching the annual Perseid meteor shower (流星雨). But this time, as the meteors flashed across the sky, I, a junior girl, began to question, “Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby ”
I grew up in a small town, where even graduating from high school was not a given for many students. But I was driven to pursue my education, and like my best friend’s dad----a pharmacist (药剂师), one of the few professional role models in my neighborhood, therefore, I chose to major in pharmacy, the science of preparing medicines, at the University of North Carolina.
The university was only a 3.5-hour drive away, but it felt across the universe. In the weeks since I began my pharmacy degree, I had met people with jobs and PhDs in different branches of science I had never considered----neuroscience, archaeology, and even astrophysics. Their passion and knowledge opened my eyes to worlds I had never imagined. As my birthday and the Perseid meteor shower approached, I was faced with a decision: Should I stick to my long-standing plans or take a step into the unknown
Ultimately, a solar eclipse (日食) helped me make my decision. As the Moon gradually shaded the Sun, the world darkened around me. The stillness of the water, the desperate calls of birds, and the fading sunset deeply moved me. I knew what I had to do. I dropped out of pharmacy school to pursue previously unimagined options.
Facing years of challenges and growth, I worked odd jobs before earning a second degree in physics, starting a PhD in astronomy, and realized that the night sky’s vastness inspired me to overcome doubts and follow my dreams. As I approach the final year of my PhD, I realize that growing up with the night sky gave me a valuable gift. It gave me an insight into life: On the scale of our vast universe, our individual needs, desires, fears, and insecurities shrink to insignificance, bringing humanity together. It liberated me from allowing earthly worries, shame, or self-doubt to stand in the way of pursuing new dreams.
24. What motivated the author to major in pharmacy
A. Her ambition to become a doctor. B. The encouragement of her friend.
C. Her childhood passion for pharmacy D. The influence of her best friend’s father.
25. How did the author’s experience at university shape her
A. It helped her stick to her belief. B. It opened her mind to new ideas.
C. It enhanced her pharmacy study. D. It developed her thinking abilities.
26. What can we learn from the author’s understanding of life
A. Accepting insecurities helps us handle challenges.
B. Personal problems still matter in the vast universe.
C. It’s vital to pursue dreams despite personal challenges.
D. It is small and unimportant things that mean a lot to us.
27. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Caring and patient. B. Modest and honest.
C. Generous and helpful. D. Curious and determined.
C
Scientists with the BrainGate research center have developed a breakthrough brain-computer interface (BCI). The system aims to restore communication for individuals with speech disabilities caused by conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which lead to the gradual loss of mobility and speech. It uses implanted sensors to interpret brain signals when a user attempts to speak, transforming them into text that is read aloud by a computer. The study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine on August 14, was led by David Brandman and Sergey Stavisky, faculty members at UC Davis Health.
ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, affects nerve cells controlling muscle movement. BCI technology can restore communication for those affected. In this study, Casey Harrell, a 45-year-old man with ALS, regained the ability to communicate effectively within minutes of using the system. Harrell described the experience as life-changing, saying, “My past condition was so demoralizing. Not being able to communicate seems as if you were trapped. Something like this technology will help people get back into life and society.”
The BrainGate clinical trial, led by Dr. Leigh Hochberg from Brown University, has made major progress in interpreting brain signals to help people with paralysis (瘫痪) communicate. In July 2023, the UC Davis team implanted a BCI device into Harrell’s brain, focusing on the left precentral gyrus, a part of the brain that controls speech. The system translates brain activity into phonemes (音素) and words, enabling real-time communication. Harrell’s BCI generated speech with a voice similar to his own, using software trained with existing voice samples of his voice before he developed ALS. This allowed him to connect with his loved ones in a deeply personal way.
Over 32 weeks and 248 hours of use, the system achieved remarkable results, with 99.6% acéuracy for a 50-word vocabulary in 30 minutes of training and 90.2% accuracy for a 125,000-word vocabulary after 1.4 additional training hours. “This is transformative technology,” Brandman said. “It provides hope for people who want to speak but can’t.” Dr. John Ngai, director of the NIH’s BRAIN Initiative, highlighted the milestone as a major step in restoring communication for individuals locked in by paralysis.
28. What do we know about the BrainGate BCI
A. It is used to treat speech disabilities.
B. It translates brain signals into speech.
C. It helps people with ALS move and speak.
D. It connects brains to make computers smarter.
29. What does the underlined word “demoralizing” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Discouraging. B. Demanding. C. Comforting. D. Eye-opening.
30. Why was the speech composed in Harrell’s pre-ALS voice
A. To enable his communication in real time.
B. To make his speech emotionally meaningful.
C. To improve the accuracy of speech translation.
D. To help interpret his brain signals more easily.
31. What is Dr. John Ngai’s attitude towards the BrainGate BCI
A. Favorable. B. Unclear. C. Cautious. D. Dismissive.
D
It might surprise you to learn that dogs are playing an increasingly important role as conservationists. For centuries, they have been known as man’s best friends. Now, their unique. abilities are being made use of to help protect some of the world’s most threatened species.
Quick and loyal, dogs possess many qualities that make them ideal for fieldwork, but it’s their extraordinary sense of smell that makes them invaluable for conservation work. With around 220 million olfactory receptors (嗅觉受体) compared to just 5 million in humans, dogs can detect scents (气味) and analyze them with astonishing accuracy, devoting 40 times more of their brain to scent analysis than we do.
Thanks to this incredible ability, some dogs are now being trained to save at-risk animals by sniffing (嗅) out their droppings. At the University of Washington’s Conservation Cannes facility,20specially trained dogs have successfully tracked killer whale droppings, which only float briefly on the ocean’s surface. Analyzing these samples enables scientists to monitor the health of killer whale populations, which are under significant stress from food shortages, pollution, and boat traffic.
Beyond tracking animal droppings, conservation dogs are also trained for live animal detection, further showcasing their abilities. They can locate rare species in their natural habitats. Additionally, they are now used to tackle the non-native species that threaten the survival of the local wildlife. Dogs also take on other important roles. For example, at Kenya’s Mombasa port, dogs sniff out illegal wildlife products such as rhino horns and ivory. Across Africa, they work on the frontlines against illegal hunting, serving as a powerful security force enhancer.
While dogs may not be the ultimate solution to every conservation challenge. their incomparable abilities make them invaluable companions in the fight to protect our planet’s biodiversity.
32. Why are the figures mentioned in the second paragraph
A. To highlight the superiority of dogs’ sense of smell.
B. To suggest the amazing accuracy of dogs’ analysis.
C. To recognize the importance of conservation work.
D. To show dogs’ impressive achievements in fieldwork.
33. How do dogs help protect killer whales
A. By tracking their movements. B. By detecting their droppings.
C. By monitoring their populations. D. By analyzing the collected samples.
34. What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 4
A. Wildlife products are popular in African countries.
B. Non-native species affect the survival of local wildlife.
C. Dogs are used to detect and prevent illegal wildlife trade.
D. Dogs can accurately locate the natural habitats of rare species.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To appeal to people to protect biodiversity.
B. To report various environmental challenges.
C. To introduce dogs’ roles in conservation efforts.
D. To prove the conventional claim of dogs’ qualities.
第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
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。
When others outperform us, should we feel threatened or inspired Should we fear or respect those who are more capable, more skilled or more successful than us 36
A study conducted by educational psychologists at Brown University explored how kindergartners in the U. S. and China tell stories about peers who perform better than others. 37 Chinese children often expressed respect for high achievers and a desire to imitate their success. In contrast, U. S. children’s stories typically focused on negative reactions, including envy and being left out.
The findings reflect the cultural narratives (叙述) surrounding achievement in each society. In American culture, the “self” is defined by qualities, and abilities, which are largely fixed. Thus, while the achievement of others reflects their high ability, it becomes a mirror to reveal one’s own lack of ability. 38 As a result, Chinese children tend to view others’ achievements not as signs of natural superiority, but as opportunities for learning and self-improvement.
39 In China, students’ overall performance may be publicly recognized to encourage success and motivate further improvement. Teachers even invite outstanding graduates to share their experiences and lessons with current students to promote learning. In the U. S., such phenomena are less common as they can be seen as threats to self-esteem.
Ultimately, our perceptions and reactions to others’ success are profoundly shaped by cultural narratives surrounding achievement. 40 These narratives, in other words, determine whether we feel threatened or inspired, fearful or respectful, annoyed or eager to copy others.
A. It can be a source of motivation.
B. These cultural differences extend to educational practices.
C. Education facilitates personal growth and social progress.
D. They influence our motivations, relationships and actions.
E. Both groups told detailed stories but showed clear differences in content.
F. Different responses can lead to constructive or destructive reactions and actions.
G. However, Chinese culture stresses abilities and qualities can improve through efforts.

A Game of Growth
The gym was alive with the sounds of squeaking (嘎吱作响) shoes, bouncing basketballs, and teammates shouting plays. It was game day, and I should have been focused, but my mind was elsewhere. My thoughts dragged me down, and I couldn’t shake the heaviness I felt.
Every time I passed the ball, Ryan, one of our best players, would make some snide (挖苦的) remarks: “Can’t you aim better, Eliot ” or “Guess we know who won’t be taking the game-winning shot today.” His words cut deep, feeding my doubts. I wanted to fire back, but the energy wasn’t there.
Coach Rivera noticed something was off. “Eliot, can I talk to you for a second ” he said after practice. His voice was calm but firm, the way it always was when he saw something wrong. I sighed, knowing I couldn’t avoid the conversation. “Yeah, Coach ” He studied me for a moment, his eyes serious. “You’re not yourself lately. I’ve also noticed there’s tension between you and Ryan. What’s going on ”
I hesitated, then said, “Nothing, I’m fine.”
Coach didn’t buy it. “I’ve been around long enough to know when something’s weighing on a player. You’ re not just dealing with basketball issues, are you ”
I finally admitted, my throat tight and my eyes starting to water, “I have some family problems…my parents had an accident, and I’ve had to take care of them.”
Coach nodded, understanding. “That’s a lot to handle. But Ryan... he’s a tough guy, and you two are teammates, and the team only works if you’ re united. Let’s talk things through.”
The next day. Coach pulled Ryan and me aside. The conversation was awkward at first. Ryan explained that he felt I wasn’t pulling my weight in the games. I told him about my situation though I didn’t go into details.
Ryan’s expression softened. “I didn’t know you were dealing with so much. I’m sorry for pushing you too hard” he said. “I could’ve handled it better,” I admitted.
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。
With Coach’s help, Ryan and I started working together instead of against each other.
In the championship game, Ryan passed me the ball for the game-winning shot.

Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share my thoughts on the supplementary reading activity. I believe it’s a fantastic opportunity for us to improve our English skills and gain insights into different cultures. It will also help us develop critical thinking by exploring various themes beyond textbooks.
To maximize its effectiveness, I suggest incorporating a mix of fiction and non-fiction texts that cater to our interests and levels. Additionally, setting aside time for discussions or debates based on the readings could greatly enhance our comprehension and speaking abilities. Lastly, perhaps we can have a weekly sharing session where students present their favorite parts or reflections on the readings.
Looking forward to this enriching experience.
Yours,

应用文写作
Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share my thoughts on the supplementary reading activity. I believe it’s a fantastic opportunity for us to improve our English skills and gain insights into different cultures. It will also help us develop critical thinking by exploring various themes beyond textbooks.
To maximize its effectiveness, I suggest incorporating a mix of fiction and non-fiction texts that cater to our interests and levels. Additionally, setting aside time for discussions or debates based on the readings could greatly enhance our comprehension and speaking abilities. Lastly, perhaps we can have a weekly sharing session where students present their favorite parts or reflections on the readings.
Looking forward to this enriching experience.
Yours,
Li Hua

读后续写
With Coach’s help, Ryan and I started working together instead of against each other. We found a rhythm on the court that we hadn’t had before. Ryan made an effort to understand my situation off the court and offered his support. Our teamwork improved, and so did our performance. The atmosphere in the gym became more positive, filled with encouragement. It was about overcoming challenges together. Coach reminded us that growth often comes from facing adversity, and through this, we learned lessons beyond the sport.
In the championship game, Ryan passed me the ball for the game-winning shot. Time seemed to slow as I took the shot. It wasn’t just about scoring; it symbolized all we’d been through. The crowd cheered as the ball went in. This victory felt sweeter because it showed our growth and the strength gained off the court. Ryan’s trust during that moment proved we had turned a corner. We didn’t just win a game; we strengthened our bond as teammates and friends.

M: Good evening, ma’am. My name is Bob and I’ll be serving your table tonight. May I take your order
W: Yes, I’ll have the classic cooked chicken salad and my daughter would like the beef steak.
M: Great choices, but the steak might be a bit too much for a child. Just letting you know.
W: In that case, no steak. Could you recommend something else
M: Sure, How about the French fries They are a favorite among our younger guests.
W: Sounds good, she’ll have that, thanks.
M: It’s my pleasure. Any starters or desserts If you order both, you’ll have 10% off the total bill.

W: Good morning, what can I do for you
M: Good morning, it’s this jacket right here. I didn’t notice the tear on the inside until I put it on this morning.
W: Oh, I’m so sorry about that. Do you have your proof of purchase with you
M: Absolutely, here it is.
W: Thank you, let me take a look. Unfortunately, our store policy only allows returns within 28 days of purchase. It looks like you bought this over two months ago, so we can’t give you your money back.
M: But what about the tear I can’t wear it like this.
W: I completely understand, sir. How about offering you a replacement instead.
M: I do love the style, so in that case let’s do an exchange.
W: Well, it looks like we’re out of black in your size, but we have some available in brown. Would you like to try one on
M: En, now that you mention it, the brown one actually looks even better. I’ll take one.
W: I’m glad you like it, let me pack that up for you.
M: Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

M: Hi Eva, how’s the poster design for the tree planting day coming along
W: Hi Ben, things are actually moving along quite well. I’ve got some great ideas for the design.
M: Sounds good, maybe we could also add an appealing phrase to make it more powerful.
W: That’s a great point, how about growing a greener future It’s inspiring and easy to remember.
M: Love it. This phrase is sure to help get more people involved, and I believe the activity will definitely help raise more awareness of protecting nature.
W: Exactly, plus, it’s a great chance for us students to better connect with each other.
M: Definitely, it’s always nice to take a break from the daily routine. Anyway, after the event, all participants are asked to share photos and updates on how many trees they have planted.
W: Good idea. That’ll show the impact we’re making and encourage more participation in future events.
M: Let’s go together this Saturday one more time to finalize the details, including what and how many tools to purchase. I’m glad you’re on board, Eva.
W: Happy to help.

Hello everyone, my name is Michael and I’m excited to be back on campus today. I’d like to share a little about my company Hungry Harvest. Have you ever noticed that all the apples in the grocery store are almost the same size and color In reality, fruits and vegetables come in all sorts of funny shapes and sizes, but most stores don’t sell them because they don’t look perfect. As a result, tons of produce that’s good enough to eat goes to waste every day. That’s where hungry Harvest steps in. We collect these imperfect fruits and vegetables, produce that would otherwise be thrown away, and put them in boxes. We sell them at a lower price than what you’d find in most grocery stores, helping families eat healthily on a budget while reducing food waste. It creates a win-win situation. There’s an even bigger part of our mission for every purchase and delivery. Hungry Harvest donates healthy food to needy people. So far Hungry Harvest has recovered 300000 of produce and provided them all to those in need. I’m really proud of the work we’ve done. But what matters most is the impact we’re making on the community. My hope for all of you, after all these years of hard work in school, is that your goal isn’t just about what you’ve achieved for yourself, but what you’ve done to make the world a better place. Thank you.
