A
Summer camps everywhere are filling up fast, but opportunities remain open for camps where fun and games come around food- growing it, that is. Your kids will learn how to tend to vegetables and livestock (家畜) and almost certainly taste the fruits of their labor. Here’s a small sampling of what’s out there.
Muscot, New York
This farm, offers a half-day Wangler Camp for kids (a livestock-centred experience) and a two-week long Young Farmers camp for kids in grades one through eight. Camps range from $150 for weeklong half-day sessions to $350 for full-day sessions
Sproutai’ Up, Colorado
An agriculture farm with a focus on education, Sprout’ Up offers skill-building programs for teens throughout the year, but their summer camp for kids is all about fun. In addition to farm activities the kids spend time at a local climbing gym. Three weekly half-day sessions are available for half-day sessions are available for $200 each.
Humboldt, California
Located north of San Francisco, this sleepaway camp spreads out over several hundredacres in the coastal hills of Sonoma County. The lodging (住处) is tent-style, with outdoorshowers. A range of farm activities are available throughout the summer.
Alegre, Georgia
Your kids will clean and brush a horse, and learn to milk a goat at this camp. Three-daysessions (mornings only) cost $125, and parents can attend with their children for an extrafee.
1. Which camp best suits kids who enjoy climbing
A. Museum. B. Sproutai'Up. C. Humbold. D. Alge.
2. What can kids do in Alegre
A. Interact with animals. B. Have sessions in the afternoon.
C. Sleep in tents at night. D. Enjoy the scenery of coastal hills.

B
They got ready for parties and shared countless laughs as freshmen in the dormitories of the University of Maryland. They bonded over being black women at a university where, in 1971, only 4% of the students was black. Friends called the tight-knit group of women Sugar Hill, and the name sustained.
But that wasn’t the end of the friend group. For the past 50 years, the women have met at least once a year for dinners, sleepovers and vacations. The 16 women of the Sugar Hill Sisterhood, as they now call themselves, have leaned on one another through decades of milestones: weddings and graduations, baby showers and funerals. “There’s no challenge too big for the sisterhood,” says Everene Turner, a member of the team, “I could call in the troops in a minute.”
While many people have friendships that span decades, the women of Sugar Hill are something of a case study in what it takes to maintain them. Although the bond among them was forged during college, they’ve worked hard to stay connected and nurture their relationships. A group chat helps them stay in touch daily, as do phone calls, video chats and remote group activities like a 90-day fitness challenge. They are committed to their annual reunions and have maintained unwavering support for one another.
In the late 1970s, one of the group members, Dawkins whose boyfriend died in a car accident, was mourning the loss when another Sugar Hill sister persuaded Dawkins to live with her. They stayed roommates for the next few years. Dawkins says, “Time and friends are two things that become more valuable the older you get.”
Their group name has become part of their identity and now extends to family members. The friends support one another’s children and grandchildren, and the children of the sisterhood also spend time together. “It’s a great feeling knowing that we’ve passed the Sugar Hill legacy to our offspring and they are passing it down to their offspring,” Jonetta says. And before Dawkins got married in 1985, Jonetta’s husband joked to her fiance that his commitment would extend beyond Dawkins, “Just make sure you want to do this — you’re marrying her, but you’re marrying 15 other sisters as well.”
4. What do we know about the women of the Sugar Hill
A. They were enthusiasts of parties.
B. They graduated from university in 1971.
C. They came from different racial backgrounds.
D. They developed a tight-knit relationship at university.
5. What can be inferred from Everene Turner’s words in paragraph 2
A. She has a pack of soldiers to back her up.
B. They have never encountered big problems.
C. They can unite as a whole whenever they are needed.
D. She can help make emergency calls when help is needed.
6. According to the text, how do the women probably think of maintaining a distance relationship
A. It presents challenges but is rewarding.
B. It takes equal investment among them.
C. In-person interaction is unnecessary with telecommunication.
D. Physical distance increases their appreciation for the time spent together.
7. What is the writing purpose of the text
A. To demonstrate women’s power. B. To illustrate the significance of friendship.
C. To share a sisterhood that lasts a life time. D. To entertain readers with an unusual anecdote.
C
“What’s special about our species ” is a question scientists have wrestled with for centuries. Now an evolutionary anthropologist Thomas Morgan has a new theory that could change the way we perceive ourselves and the world.
“It was basically accepted that it was the ability of human culture — the shared body of knowledge passed down across generations — to accumulate and evolve that made us special, but our new discoveries are challenging that and forcing us to rethink what makes us as a species unique,” said Morgan.
Just as humans pass on knowledge to our children, when a new queen leafcutter ant hatches, she collects a little mouthful of her mother’s genetic material to start a new family. Even locusts use complex evolving systems to adapt to local conditions, relying on epigenetic changes — how factors like age and environment can change gene activity without changing DNA sequence — to quickly evolve between green or yellow-and-black forms based on overpopulation.
So, if animals do have evolving cultures, then what’s special about human culture Morgan pointed out that we humans are so special because of our “open-endedness” — our ability to communicate and understand an infinite number of possibilities in life, whereas animals’ inability to easily imagine complicated sequences or subgoals limits their way of thinking.
“For example, when I’m making my boys’ breakfast in the morning, it’s a nested, multi-step process. First, I need to get the bowls and pots and other equipment. Then I put the ingredients in the pot, all in the right amounts and order, cook it, monitoring temperature until it reaches the right consistency, and then serve it up. Each of these steps is a subgoal. This complex procedure is hard for animals to interpret,” said Morgan.
When it comes to the limit of this system, human brains just keep going, which allows us to perform a near-infinite set of behaviors — this is open-endedness.
8. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The human culture. B. The common belief.
C. The latest discovery. D. The new species.
9. What can be learned in paragraph 3
A The fittest are likely to survive best. B. DNA’s sequence is basically unstable.
C. Culture accumulation isn’t exclusive to humans. D. Parents attach importance to children’s education.
10. Why does Morgan cite the breakfast-making example
A. To display his superb cooking skills. B. To explain the complexity of cooking.
C. To stress the importance of goal-setting. D. To show animals’ struggle with subgoals.
11. Which can best describe the core of human open-endedness
A. Orderly. B. Boundless. C. Consistent D. Inclusive.
D
The idea that we need to eat meat to get enough protein and iron, a false assumption of some Paleo diet (原始饮食) advocates, is a common misconception. It ignores the abundance of protein and iron in many plant-based foods such as nuts and seeds. Likewise, while we typically associate omega-3 fatty acids with fish, fish themselves incorporate these into their tissue by eating seaweed, which we can consume directly without the concerns of exposure to microplastics in fish flesh.
Indeed, a whole-food, plant-based diet can provide all essential nutrients except for vitamin B12, made by bacteria in soil and ingested by animals, thereby incorporated into their tissue, milk, and eggs. While modern sanitation allows humans to consume clean produce unpolluted by dirt, we can easily and cheaply obtain oral B12 supplements.
Evidently, significantly reducing our consumption of meat would carry vast benefits. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death around the world. Eating highly processed foods and red meat has been repeatedly demonstrated to promote underlying mechanisms of cancer and cardiovascular disease, such as inflammation (炎症) and damage to the lining of blood vessels (血管).
Mounting evidence points to the benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet. Studies from 2017found that a vegetarian diet is associated with a 25 percent relative risk reduction for coronary heart disease and an 8 percent relative risk reduction for cancer, with a vegan diet related to a 15 percent relative risk reduction for cancer. The World Health Organization has classified processed meat as carcinogenic (致癌的), and (unprocessed) red meat as probably carcinogenic to humans.
In addition to harming ourselves, eating meat harms others. Factory farming practices often entail unspeakable cruelty to animals, and working conditions for human laborers are often unsafe and inhumane as well. Overcrowding of livestock and workers promotes the spread of disease among both people and animals, putting us all at risk for future pandemics. The overuse of “routine” antibiotics (抗生素) to accelerate animal growth and precautiously treat the infections anticipated as a result of living in unclean and overcrowded conditions can promote antibiotic resistance.
While large-scale, well-coordinated national and international action is undoubtedly needed to fight unscrupulous factory farming practices-and to ensure the availability of nutritious and healthy food for all citizens, those with greater influence, such as physicians, educators and policy makers, should consider the importance of acting as role models for healthy behaviors themselves as well as advocating for policies that ensure better nutritional access and education for others.
All of these should not be excuses for individuals to resist implementing change in their own lives and communities. Societies change when enough individuals within them alter their behavior, and it is up to each of us to act as a change agent in whatever capacity we can. We would all be well served to pull this lever in our own lives as well.
12. The author writes the first two paragraphs mainly to ________.
A. show the concerns of Paleo diet advocates
B. compare the differences between two diets
C. highlight the importance of nutrition intake
D. point out a misunderstanding in nutrition source
13. Which of the following logic chains is reasonable according to the passage
A.
B.
C.
D.
14. What does the underlined word “unscrupulous” in Paragraph 6 probably mean
A. Illegal. B. Unfair. C. Immoral. D. Unnecessary.
15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. A Meatless Diet Is Better for You B. Food Problems Call for Joint Efforts
C. Say No to Processed Meat Consumption D. Eatable Greens or Not That Is a Question

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。
It’s no secret that artificial intelligence is changing the way we work. With more and more simpler tasks being automated humans are left with more high-level cognitive work, such as idea generation, strategic planning, and creative writing. ____16____
The problem is that we still follow a mindset that resembles the era of assembly (组装) lines, which doesn’t foster or facilitate the type of work needed today. Leaders constantly measured productivity in terms of how many hours an employee spent at work or the number of abstract targets they reached. ____17____ This type of output doesn’t fit in the era of AI. Instead, we have to make a psychological switch, structuring each workday for quality instead of quantity.
Start by kicking the old method of continuous work throughout the day. Research shows that continuous work impairs creative idea generation and high quality, complex cognitive work. ____18____ It’s recommended that using work sessions that are about 90 minutes long, attacking the hardest part of the task in the first 20 minutes and moving to the slower, easier work during the remaining time.
____19____ Therefore, managers should consider the principal area that a team or individual is working on rather than imposing the same work schedule across a team or an organization. Data suggests that it’s better to work on tasks that involve creativity, imagination, and problem solving during the first few hours of the day and again right before you go to sleep. ____20____ In between the focused work sessions, make time for a nap or for easy work that doesn’t require much creativity or focus.
A. That’s because people tend to overwork.
B. The time of day will also make a difference.
C. As a result, quantity of work was prioritized.
D. To excel in the new era, we’ll need to transform how we work.
E. With every new technology comes fear and then new opportunity.
F. Because of that, it’s better to work in bursts, giving the mind a rest.
G. The middle of the day is better for something calling for concentration.

He also gave ____22____ to Henson, an African American explorer with ____23____ skills. “The team needed his knowledge of the Inuit, and Henson was fluent in their language. Also, he has shared all the physical hardships of my Arctic work,” Peary said.
____24____ winds blow. “Freezing of the face is a(n) ____25____ occurrence,” Henson wrote. “We could even lose finger’s or toes. When anyone’s foot began to freeze, another mam held the bare foot against his stomach to ___26___ it up. There was no other way to ____27____ the foot.”
After four journeys to the Arctic, Peary learned how to ____28____ better for the trip. This time, he had other teams go ahead and leave ____29____ along the way to provide for their final dash. They drove long hours every day. “Forced ____30____ all the time,” Peary explained.
They were ____31____ because they came across no open water to ____32____ the team. They spent 30 hours at the pole before they began their _____33_____.

第二节(共10题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
The success of Black Myth: Wukong, China’s first AAA video game, highlights the growing global appeal of authentic Chinese culture. By using pinyin-based terms like loong for dragon, and yaoguai for monster, the game ___36___ (preserve) the linguistic and cultural essence of its Chinese origins. These choices showcase the balance between cultural authenticity and international ___37___ (accessible), reflecting a shift in ___38___ Chinese cultural symbols are presented globally.
The change is a process of cultural awareness and confidence. For instance Tang Xianzu, ___39___ Ming Dynasty playwright of The Peony Pavilion, is referred to as the “Oriental Shakespeare” in most cases. While this comparison aids recognition, it reduces Tang’s unique ___40___ (art) contributions and deepens the notion of Eastern art as secondary to Western counterparts. ___41___ cultural elements, like the tragic love story of The Butterfly Lovers, are compared to Romeo and Juliet, and water towns in Jiangnan are called the “Venice of the East.” Such translations stem from a time when Chinese cultural icons were less recognizable abroad, ___42___ modern audiences increasingly seek direct engagement with authentic cultural identities.
However, the change comes with no ease. A case in point is the ___43___ (oppose) voices over the adoption of the term xiqu instead of Chinese opera. Such a controversy illustrates the challenges of preserving cultural specificity while ensuring comprehensibility.
In recent years, efforts by industry associations and ___44___ (academic) have advanced standardized translations, reflecting the growing recognition of China’s cultural heritage. Translators and cultural practitioners have also been navigating these complexities to shape an ____45____ (include) yet authentic global presence for Chinese culture.

Special#2,Please
My flight arrived in San Diego around midnight, and by the time I drove home and got into bed it was nearly 2:00 a. m. I was tired and jet-lagged when I dragged myself out of the bed. Nevertheless,I had to be up bright and early that morning: I was the opening keynoter(主旨发言人) at a national conference.
In short, I needed to recover quickly. A hearty breakfast in the early morning sun was what I needed. I headed for Carlos & Annie’s, a popular restaurant located in the heart of the seaside town.
“I’d like steak and eggs, please,” I said to the waitress after I had finally found a table in the restaurant. “Oh, I'm sorry,” she apologized. “We're out of Special#2. We've served the last of our steaks. How about Special#14 ” “Oh, no steak and eggs ” I couldn't seem to accept it.
I'm not sure if it was my heartfelt sigh that caught Carlos, the owner's attention. His warm, caring brown eyes seemed determined to pinpoint the best solution. He then said, “You know, I think I did see one final steak back
there.”
Pressing my luck,I quickly declared, “Wow,that would be great. But you know, I’m not sure if I want a breakfast stenk at all. What I really want is a steak—one that’s two inches thick, tender and juicy, served medium rare.” “Not to worry,” Carlos assured meand left. The young waitress gave me a wink(眨眼) and said with a knowing smile, “Carlosis being Carlos again!” I did not give her words much thought.
Then, I noticed Carlos as he left the restaurant through the side door and walked into a neighborhood grocery store across the street. Carlos exchanged morning greetings with everyone he knew and even helped the owner of the bookstore next door by holding the items that filled her arms. Then he reentered the restaurant with a bag in his hand.
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。
Paragraph 1: Within minutes,an exact Special#2 was in front of me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: I was about to leave when I learned Carlos had already sold the restaurant.

【47题答案】
【答案】Within minutes, an exact Special#2 was in front of me, its sight and smell instantly lifting my spirits. If Carlos hadn't stepped in, my day might have continued in a haze of disappointment. As I took the first bite, I couldn't help but marvel at how a simple act of kindness could profoundly alter one's outlook. "In a world often filled with haste and indifference, gestures like these stand out," I thought to myself, savoring not just the meal but the warmth and care that came with it.
I was about to leave when I learned Carlos had already sold the restaurant, a revelation that made my heart sink. Had I known this would be my last encounter in this familiar setting, perhaps I would have lingered a bit longer, soaking in every detail. This unexpected change served as a poignant reminder that nothing in life is permanent, except the memories we hold dear and the impact we have on each other. "It's the moments of genuine connection that truly enrich our lives," I reflected as I walked away, grateful for the brief but meaningful interaction that would now be treasured in my collection of memories.
