Since 1975, the Ironguard has been a long-standing tradition in the Long Beach Junior Lifeguard Program. Each year, the last week of the program is marked by this event. Junior lifeguards(JGs), parents and swimming enthusiasts alike gather at 1st Place and race all the way to the end of the sand at 72nd Place in the beach.
●The course is made up of four miles of running and two miles of swimming. Registration begins at 8:00 am for all participants.
●Participants swim around 14 buoys(浮标), one at each lifeguard tower, plus running all the way around the pier(码头).
●Participants who complete the race in under 2 hours will receive an event hat. A perpetual trophy (永久的奖杯) for the top finishers of the A, B and C divisions was created in 2009.
●We will have different lines for A's, B's and C's. Be sure every participant is listening for their time as they cross the finish line! Right after they cross, there will be tables for each age group where they report their time.
●We will have a celebration at the finish line for all competitors, where we provide a free meal for all JGs.
Important Note
If for some reason your children do not finish the Ironguard, they are required to tell a lifeguard on the beach before they leave. For safety reasons, we need to make sure every child is accounted for.
Many experienced parents or other supporters will run the course with their children. Don't worry, you can also choose to rest while they swim. If you do run with your JG, please stay out of the way of other participants.
21. What can we learn from the Ironguard

Change is something that has always excited Dr Lori Piowlski, who embraced new online methods of teaching. However, she didn't always want to be a teacher. “I often said I would never be a teacher,” says Piowlski. “I grew up where a lot of my family members were teachers. I honestly didn't want to do what everyone else in my family had done. I wanted to be a lawyer.”
Despite her wish to follow a career in law, she couldn't ignore her “true” calling in life. “I started teaching piano when I was in high school,” says Piowlski. “I loved every minute that I spent with my students, watching them grow and struggle. I think you learn the most when you face your struggles and that is one of the things I want to instill(灌输) in my students. I want to say it's OK to struggle. It's OK to have that conflict inside of you that says this is hard, learning hard— but that's when you grow the most. So I think that piano teaching gave me that and instilled the love of teaching in me.”
While at college, she reflected on her time as a piano teacher and realized she had to follow her calling to teach. “I gave in to my calling and became an educator,” says Piowlski. “After graduating, I found a contract and taught my first class in first grade in California.”
Piowlski stayed there for 14 years, teaching special education and general education to students from pre-K level all the way through to 12th grade. She then moved back to Minnesota to raise her children. While taking this career break, Piowlski decided to study for her PhD.
“I got my PhD because that's something I'd always wanted to do and I wanted to show my kids that with perseverance(坚持) you can do anything,” says Piowlski. “They were in school, so' it wasn't easy.” Anyhow, she managed to graduate with determination and support from family members.
24. What contributed to Piowlski's decision to be a teacher
A. Her family influence. B. Her experience in teaching piano.
C. Her duty as a mother. D. Her failed attempt to be a lawyer.
25. What attitude did Piowlski hold towards struggles
A. Tolerant. B. Skeptical.
C. Dismissive. D. Critical.
26. Why did Piowlski move back to Minnesota
A. To care for her children. B. To find a better-paid job.
C. To make a change. D. To pursue her PhD.
27. What did Piowlski want to convey to her children
A. Time and tide waits for no man. B. Education is the key to success.
C. Love lifts barriers. D. Sticking to dreams pays off.

Playing a musical instrument or singing could help keep the brain healthy in older age, UK researchers suggest. In their report, published in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, they say music should be considered as part of a lifestyle approach to maintain the brain.
More than 1,100 people aged over 40, with an average age of 68, were studied. Scientists observed their brain function data, looking at the effects of playing an instrument, singing, reading and listening to music.
The researchers compared the cognitive(认知的) data of those in the study who engaged in music in some way in their lives, with those who never had. Their results showed that people who played musical instruments benefited the most, which may be because of the “multiple cognitive demands” of the activity.
“Playing the piano or keyboard appeared to be particularly beneficial. Simply listening to music did not appear to help cognitive health. The benefit seen with singing might be partly because of the known social aspects of being in a choir or group,” the researchers say.
“Because we have such sensitive brain tests for this study, we are able to look at individual aspects of the brain function, such as short-term memory, long-term memory and problem-solving,” lead author Anne Corbett said.
“Playing an instrument has a particularly big effect, and people who continue to play into an older age saw an additional benefit,” she said. “Our brain is a muscle like anything else and it needs to be exercised, and learning to read music is a bit like learning a new language.” In the study, people who read music regularly had better numerical memory.
“The message is around how people can proactively reduce their risk of cognitive decline or dementia(痴呆), and really thinking about engaging with music as a way of doing that,” Anne said. However, she added, “It would be naive to think taking up a musical instrument would mean you won't develop dementia.”
28. What does the research say about music
A. It takes constant practice. B. It improves long-term memory.
C. It does old people's brains a favor. D. It sharpens the language ability.
29. How is the research carried out
A. By conducting a survey. B. By exercising the brain.
C. By citing an expert. D. By making comparison.
30. Which best describes playing musical instruments
A. Emotionally disturbing. B. Cognitively demanding.
C. Physically challenging. D. Mentally pleasing.
31. Which word can replace the underlined word “naive” in the last paragraph
A. innocent B. complicated
C. realistic D. wise
D
Solar and wind energy are transforming how we power our world, but to fully use these renewable sources, we need reliable and affordable batteries to store energy. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison(UW-Madison) have taken a step towards this goal by inventing a water-soluble chemical additive that enhances the performance of bromide aqueous flow(溴化物水溶液) batteries, a promising energy storage solution.
Current large-scale energy storage relies on lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries, which have limitations like safety concerns, risk of fires and reliance on complex international supply chains. In contrast, aqueous flow batteries could offer a safer and more sustainable alternative. These batteries use water-based liquid that circulate over electrodes(电极) separated by a membrane(膜).They are scalable and less dangerous than lithium-ion batteries.
Bromide, a cheap and widely available ion, could replace expensive vanadium in flow batteries. However, bromide-based batteries face challenges: Bromide ions can pass through the membrane, reducing efficiency, or form a messy oil or poisonous bromine gas, making them impractical for large-scale use.
To tackle these issues, the UW-Madison team, including Patrick Sullivan and GyohunChoi, developed a new additive called a“soft-hard zwitterionic trapper”. This additive packages bromide ions, keeping them water-soluble while preventing them from passing through the membrane or forming harmful byproducts. As a result, the battery becomes more efficient and stable.
With the additive, the researchers achieved remarkable results: The batteries lasted almost two months without performance decay, compared to just one day without it. “For green energy storage, durability is critical. These batteries need to function for 10 to 20years,” says another researcher.
Moving forward, the team aims to refine their discovery. Choi will explore fundamental science, while Sullivan, now CEO of a renewable energy startup, will work on commercializing the additive, already proven to be producible on an industrial scale.
32. What problem does the new chemical additive solve
A. Advancing bromide aqueous flow batteries.
B. Producing more energy in smaller batteries.
C. Improving the safety of lithium-ion batteries.
D. Replacing vanadium with expensive materials.
33. Why are aqueous flow batteries safer than lithium-ion batteries
A. They rely on an international supply chain.
B. They are based on water-based liquid.
C. They have no membranes separating electrodes.
D. They use bromide ions instead of vanadium ions.
34. What is the new additive used to do
A. To allow bromide ions to form a stable gas.
B. To prevent bromide ions from causing inefficiency issues.
C. To increase the speed of energy transfer in batteries.
D. To remove the need for membranes in batteries.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. The Role of Solar and Wind Energy in the Future
B. The Benefits of Lithium-Ion Batteries in Energy Storage
C. Challenges of Large-Scale Renewable Energy Storage
D. A Breakthrough in Bromide-Based Flow Batteries

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。
A field trip is an educational excursion(远足) outside of the classroom environment. It's an opportunity for students to gain first-hand experience with the material they are learning in class. Field trips can take place at settings like museums, historic sites and nature centers. 36 With the development of technology, students now can explore faraway places without ever leaving their classroom.
37 They help students see how what they learn in books connects to the world around them. However, there are both benefits and challenges associated with field trips that must be considered before planning one.
The most obvious benefit of field trips is that they give students the chance to experience the material they are learning in class in a real-world setting. According to a study, “Field trips provide students with experiences that cannot be replicated(复制) in the classroom.” 38 It's found that students who go on field trips are more likely to remember the material they learn than those who don't go on the trip.
Despite their benefits, field trips can present some challenges. One of the biggest challenges associated with field trips is the cost. Depending on where you are traveling and the size of your group, the expenses can quickly add up. Additionally, finding the time to plan and conduct a successful field trip can be difficult for teachers. 39
Safety is another issue that must be considered when planning a field trip. 40 This includes having enough adults to accompany the students and making sure they are trained in first aid and emergency procedures.
A. They can also be conducted virtually.
B. Teachers are always having a full schedule.
C. Planning a successful field trip requires various abilities.
D. Field trips play an important role in school education activities,
E. Besides, field trips can also help to engage students’ interest in their study,
F. It's essential to have a plan to ensure that all students are monitored at all times,
G. Direct interaction with nature fosters a profound appreciation for the environment.

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。
On a bright and sunny Sunday, my husband, John, and I, along with our spirited daughter Lucy, decided to take advantage of the perfect weather and head out for some grocery shopping. Our plan was simple: stock up on essentials for the week and enjoy a leisurely lunch at the Oakwood Center, a busy shopping mall. Lucy, feeling excited for the family outing, chattered delightedly as we packed into the car.
As we drove through the tree-lined streets of our quiet suburb, the conversation turned towards the treats we might be mouth-watering about. Lucy was set on some creamy chocolate, while John wanted to try some exotic (异国风情的) fruits like dragon fruit or starfruit, adding a little of adventure to our grocery list. The atmosphere in the car was light and joyful, providing a perfect escape from our usual daily routines.
Upon arriving at the supermarket, we grabbed a cart(购物车) and began our expedition. The store was alive with the sounds of weekend shoppers and the colorful displays of fresh produce and seasonal goods. Each of us pointed out different items and playfully put them into the cart, with our carefully prepared shopping list quickly forgotten in favor of more spontaneous(自发的) selections.
After filling our cart with a mix of groceries, we headed to the checkout lanes. The lines were surprisingly long so we had to wait longer. I reached into my purse to get my wallet for payment, but my hand met with an unexpected emptiness. A quick, crazy search through my bag confirmed my worst fear: My wallet was not there. Panic set in as I tried to recall the last time I had used it.
Seeing this, John suggested we repeat our steps after paying for the groceries with his wallet, which, thankfully, he had remembered to bring. He comforted me with a calm look, and his presence was like a steady anchor in the sudden storm of anxiety that had overtaken me. I felt terrible because of losing the personal items and the inconvenience of replacing all the cards.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As I was sorting out the payment, John walked to the customer service desk.
