The Museum of Classical Archaeology is an ideal destination for school trips. We offer a free education service tailored for students of all ages.
Our Cambridge museum is a great place to bring primary school groups, especially those studying the Ancient Greeks or Romans. We can also support both the Classics and the Art curriculum (课程) at secondary level: students studying the ancient world will benefit from student tours, while those studying art can improve their drawing skills.
Our Education Coordinator is happy to work with you to plan your school trip. We can lead the group or, if you prefer, you can self-lead.

When Martin Roth started as a forest ranger in the 1980s, his job was to care for the forest to ensure continuity for decades, even centuries. Now, with climate change, it's more about planning for an uncertain future. “It’s disaster management,” says Roth, for whom the 3,000 acres of forest serve as testing ground for high-tech solutions, earning him the nickname “digital forest ranger.”
After a severe storm, the clock starts ticking: Damaged trees should be removed before the arrival of bark beetles, which grow in dead trees and can destroy entire forests. While it once took Roth about 2.5 hours to cover an acre on foot, drones (无人机) now let him survey the entire 3,000 acres in several days, so he can quickly locate damaged trees, inform owners of affected plots, and send updates to workers.
Roth’s exploration goes beyond drones. His recent project is combining body camera with AL. “Usually you mark the trees, they’re cut down, and you have no idea how much wood you'll get, what quality, and which species,” he explains. AI now “sees” through his body cam, recognizes tree species, estimates wood production, and sends real-time information to his phone.
Since up to half of European tree species are unsuited to rising temperatures and extended dry periods, Roth has also begun experimenting with new species, planting them in small groups and keeping track of them in his system. As forest areas expand, interventions are needed, but there aren’t enough employees to keep it all straight. “Either I know it, or the computer knows it, or no one knows it and it's lost,” he says.
Roth’s expertise in tackling the challenges of modern forestry with technology is increasingly sought after - colleagues reach out for advice, and he lectures on the topic at universities. But he warns that technology can never replace a wander through the forest: “I should never believe that the digital twin is reality. I always have to do a reality check.”
24.What was Roth's job when he started his career
A. Sustaining forest health. B. Predicting the forest's future.
C.Managing disasters. D.Seeking high-tech solutions.
25. What does Roth use drones to do
A. Identify dead tree species. B.Remove harmful insects.
C. Collect data of forest damage. D.Inform owners of their loss.
26.What point is Roth trying to make with his words in paragraph 4
A. Forests are a cure for climate change.
B.Experienced workers are in great need.
C. Forest expansion is successfully controlled.
D. Technology is key to tracking forest information.
27.Why does Roth warn about the use of technology in forestry
A. It may replace human workers.
B. It may need too much checking.
C. It may provide false information.
D. It may deny chances of forest walks.

If you ever wondered what your child's drawings might reveal, keep on reading.
Imagine how you would feel when looking at Earth from outer space. That feeling of awe is what we call the Overview Effect, a feeling most astronauts report when they return to Earth, described as a transformative experience that changes their view of our planet and humanity-an experience that builds a sense of unity, interconnectedness, and responsibility for Earth’s well-being. Recently,40,000 children experienced a virtual reality(VR) space journey, becoming a unique group to have a chance to undergo this awesome feeling without leaving Earth.
To find out whether they had experienced the Overview Effect, we asked 100 children from this special group to draw self-images before and after the VR journey. In previous studies on adults, we found that after viewing a video to bring about the Overview Effect,participants tended to draw a smaller self. Apparently, going through the experience of awe and wonder makes one feel smaller, with a smaller drawing as the result. However, when we applied this method to children, we encountered unexpected results. The size of their drawings remained unchanged after the VR experience. This discrepancy led us to question: Were drawings by children simply not a good way to measure the Overview Effect Did what worked for adults simply not work for children
Upon closer analysis, we discovered that the key to measuring transformative experiences in children lies mot in the size of their drawings but in the richness of their content. Before the VR journey, the children's drawings were simple, often showing familiar elements from their daily lives. After the journey, their drawings became far more insightful, filled with vivid descriptions indicative of what they had learned during the VR journey - for example, the Earth's ecology.This discovery gave us a new way to understand children's responses to transformative experiences.
I’m not proposing that we replace tests in schools with children's drawings. But when it comes to transformative experiences, I’d recommend paying more attention to what children actually draw.
28. How can we describe the Overview Effect
A. It expresses man’s view of Earth and humanity.
B. It helps people get deeper insights into the world.
C. It brings about awesome feelings of the outer space.
D. It is a transformative experience unique to astronauts.
29.What does the underlined word “discrepancy” mean in paragraph 3
A. Problem. B. Progress. C. Doubt. Difference.
30. How did the children's drawings change after the VR journey
A. The self-images became larger. B.They described more details.
C.There were more familiar elements. D. They expressed richer emotions.
31.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A.To suggest a way of measuring children’s learning.
B. To compare adults’ and children’s Overview Effect.
C.To analyse the role of VR technology in child education.
D. To describe the psychological experience of space travels.
D
Getting into arguments, whether with family or strangers online, can feel like debating with a wall. We are probably all guilty of thinking we're right, even if we don't have all the facts. This phenomenon called the “illusion of information adequacy” is detailed in a recent psychology study.
“Interpersonal conflict is on the rise, driving increases in anger, anxiety and stress,” said Angus Fletcher, a neurophysiologist at the Ohio State University. “We wanted to look into those misunderstandings and see if they could be reduced.”
Fletcher’s team surveyed 1,261 Americans online.Participants were divided into groups and given articles about a fictional factory. One group read only reasons for the factory to merge (合并) with another factory, another only reasons for staying separate, and a Control group read all the arguments.
They found that the majority of the groups who only read the pro- or anti-merging arguments believed they had enough information to make a good decision, and would follow the article's recommendation, while about 55 and 45 percent of the control group recommended the factories merge or separate. The participants with the one-sided information also assumed that others would make the same decision they did.
The team calls this belief the illusion of information adequacy, as Fletcher describes it, “The less our brain knows, the more confident it is that it knows all it needs.” These findings add to research on naive realism, the belief that one's subjective understanding is objective truth.
While naive realism studies focus on different understandings of the same situation, Fletcher’s research shows people may share the same understanding, if given sufficient information.When the participants from the one-sided groups were asked to read all the arguments, some would change their minds. The mix of opinions was comparable to the control group - about 55 to 45 percent.
“One of the best ways to fight the illusion of information adequacy when disagreeing with someone is to stop and ask, “Is there something I’m missing that would help me see their points better ’ This can help avoid unnecessary interpersonal conflict, allowing us to focus on working through key differences between ourselves and others,” said Fletcher.
32.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.The academic background of Angus Fletcher.
B. The cause and effect of interpersonal conflicts.
C. The importance of reducing misunderstandings.
D.The significance and purpose of Fletcher’s study.
33.What were all three groups asked to do during the study
A. Defend their own views. B. Discuss before making decisions.
C.Read all the arguments. D.Recommend the best article.
34.What does Fletcher’s research find
A. People with the same information make similar decisions.
B. People from the control group are better decision-makers.
C. People less informed are more likely to change their minds.
D. People with partial information overestimate their judgments.
35.What does Fletcher suggest people do when disagreeing with others
A. Work through key differences together.
B Check for extra facts to understand others.
Stop arguing to avoid interpersonal conflict.
D. Get more evidence to support their own point.

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。
As an experienced teacher, I’ve come to understand the great value of hands-on activities. ____36____No other creature on Earth, not even our closest primate(灵长类) relatives, has hands structured quite like ours, capable of such precise grasping and control.
____37____A lot of modern life involves simple movements, such as touching screens and pushing buttons, and some experts believe our shift away from more complex hand activities could have consequences for how we think and feel.
Think about it: you're glued to your screen, typing out assignments or chatting with friends. Sure, that's a big part of how we live now. ____38____ Our brains are actually wired to respond to hand movements. When you do things like cooking or knitting, it gives you a huge sense of achievement.
Research backs this up. Studies have shown that when people -and even rats -- do things that require effort, they handle stress better, solve problems faster, and even remember things better. For example, rats that had to dig for their food were less stressed and better at solving problems than those that got food handed to them. ____39____Activities like gardening and crafting can help reduce anxiety and depression, making you feel a whole lot better.
In my classroom, I make sure my students get a mix of traditional and digital activities. I encourage them to do things using their hands. This makes learning more fun and helps them feel
emotionally and mental better.____40____And your brain and hands will thank you!
A. The same goes for us humans.
B. The human hand is a wonder of nature,
C. Now, why don't you join me in an exciting card game
D. Technology is constantly bringing new challenges to our hands.
E. However, we are doing less complicated hands-on work than we used to.
F. But nothing beats the satisfaction you get from doing something with your hands.
G. So next time you reach for a screen, consider picking up a pen, some clay or fabric.

Today, I visited my bank to put a cheque into my account. The process was straightforward, but I decided to 41 the details with the teller to avoid any issues.

This might 48 the teller’s asking for help again in the future, causing the manager to 49 leave his desk to manage the same issues. This would 50 his routine work and waste his precious time, which could 51 be better spent on his core duties. If the root cause of the problem is not solved, it will potentially affect customer 52 .
This situation reminded me of a saying, “Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” It emphasizes the significance of enabling people to handle tasks 53 of external assistance. The 54 of having a clear vision is evident in this case. It involves anticipating future needs and making the right moves to address them. Thus, we should begin with the 55 in mind, planning for long-term success.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Li Ming was a 17-year-old exchange student from China. With a heart full of dreams and a little bit of nervousness, he flew to the United Kingdom to start a new adventure. He had always imagined what it would be like to walk through the historic streets of England and meet people from different parts of the world. But as soon as he arrived at his new school, he felt a little unsure.
In his new class, Li Ming struggled to start conversations with his British classmates. They spoke so quickly and used words and phrases he didn't understand. When he tried to join their conversations, he felt shy about his accent and worried that he might say something wrong. He also noticed that British students seemed to value their personal space more than he was used to, which made it even harder for him to find the right moment to start a meaningful talk.
Group work was even harder. During a group project in literature class, Li Ming had trouble explaining his ideas clearly, feeling like his ideas were getting lost in translation. And he started to
doubt himself.
Social events outside of class were just as difficult. At a school party, Li Ming watched his classmates laugh, dance, and sing along to the latest pop songs. He felt left out, not knowing the songs or the dance moves. He wanted to join the fun, but the fear of looking silly kept him on the sidelines.
One day, the school announced a talent show, Li Ming, who practiced traditional Chinese kung fu, really wanted to try. While he was hesitating, a group of British students interested in cultural performances invited him to join them. Li Ming agreed.
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。
During their practice, the group was amazed by Li Ming’s Chinese kung fu.
After the show, Li Ming noticed some changes happening.
