“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.”
As Robert Frost reminded us, choices are often difficult and will bring both a gain and a loss. Should I spend my Sunday playing golf or taking a day trip to the North Fork with my wife
If you are a golfer as I am, you will say “Certainly, go playing golf.” Golf is perhaps the greatest challenge to self-improvement. In golf, every swing is counted and can easily be recalled and reviewed by the golfers as they lie in bed that evening, and therefore, self-improvement is pursued.
Now let us return to the question at hand. You will not be surprised to hear that I did in fact go to the North Fork. But, how has that improved me Can this be quantified ( 量化) In golf, whose goal is to complete the game with as few shots as possible, if I average 80 and I shoot a 76, I know that for that day at least I have improved upon my former self and thus feel satisfied.
You may argue that travel is not about self-improvement at all but just about having grand experiences. I beg to differ. It does matter how these things change and improve me. Seeing the folks dancing in the streets should change you. And talking to the manager of the biscuit shop, ought to change you. I think travel does change us, but it’s very hard to say just how. How does one quantify buying a peach at a farm Or how do you quantify the tasty taste of the scones (司康饼) at a stand
Reviewers have had a hard time analyzing the meaning of Robert Frost’s poem. To be honest, I would
say all of us have a hard time analyzing our wish to travel to faraway places. I am not sure what the answer is to this tricky question. I may not have made any hole-in-ones on the North Fork but I did enjoy those scones.
Why does the author quote the poem
To express the meaning of life. B. To explain the challenges the poet met.
C. To show the impact of choices. D. To introduce the general views to choices.
What does the author think of playing golf
Its result is measurable. B. It is the most challenging sports.
C. It leads to self-satisfaction. D. It shows the potential for both gain and loss.
What is the author’s attitude towards his decision of going to the North Fork
Regretful. B. Unclear. C. Content. D. Doubtful.
Which of the following proverb will the author agree with
Rome wasn’t built in a day. B. Every path has its own scenery.
C. Actions speak louder than words. D. You can’t judge a book by its cover.
C
A Harvard research team’s first model of a portable exosuit (机械护甲) is made of cloth components worn on the waist and upper legs. A computer that’s built into the shorts can sense when the user shifts between walking and running.
Say the word “exosuit” and super heroes come to mind — somebody like Tony Stark from Marvel Comics, whose fancy suit enables him to become Iron Man. But scientists at Harvard University have been developing an actual exosuit, a wearable machine that can improve an average man’s strength and endurance. This model improves a wearer’s performance while he is walking or running.
The lead researcher Conor Walsh says when you put on his team’s suit, you definitely notice that it’s pulling across your joints, so you feel the drive from the suit. But after a while, you don’t really notice it anymore. The suit helps to extend the hip joint, saving the user’s energy. Though you might not notice it, when you shut the suit off after a few minutes of having it turned on, Walsh says, “You really quickly notice that your legs feel a little bit heavier.”
Walsh says, “This suit could be helpful for a soldier carrying heavy weights over long distances.” Research on the suit was supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which is part of the United States Department of Defense and develops military technology. “Other future models might help people with medical problems like Parkinson’s disease to move more easily,” he says. “My lab cooperates with a company on a suit to help stroke survivors that is now commercially available.”
Karl Zelik, an assistant professor at Vanderbilt University, calls the team’s effort “promising work”. Zelik says it will enhance human abilities during various aspects of daily life. However, he notes that the exosuit field is changing fast. In the future, he says, the best assist devices may not be exosuits at all, but rather technology put inside a person’s body. He predicts that future wearables will also be able to figure out the wearer’s movement intention, and influence it when necessary to improve human performance.
What may the exosuit do
Cover the user’s whole body. B. Analyze a man’s health when he runs.
C. Make a man more faster and longer. D. Enable a person to become a superhero.
How will people feel when they run with the exosuit on for a while
Their legs may feel a little heavier.
Their body may not feel anything strange.
Their joints will feel pulled by some strength.
Their body may feel the driving force from it.
What do Walsh’s words in Paragraph 4 suggest
The suit can safeguard soldiers in the distance.
He works directly for American military force.
A certain model of a suit can be purchased now.
Current models benefit Patients with Parkinson.
What’s Zelik’s attitude towards the future of exosuits
Promising. B. Indifferent. C. Hopeless. D. Objective.
D
At a crop breeding ( 培育) center in Shanghai, researchers have successfully harvested rice that was grown from seeds initially bred on China’s space station, Tiangong. The rice plants have completed a full growth cycle on Earth, maturing after more than 100 days since planting.
This space-to-ground experiment began with 6 rice seeds sent into orbit in 2022 on the Wentian spacecraft. Taikonauts onboard Tiangong bred these seeds into 59, which they returned to Earth. Researchers then selected high-quality seeds, growing them under controlled climate conditions and producing around 10,000 new seeds.
Zheng Huiqiong, a lead researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Center, shared that the team’s findings suggest space-bred seeds can reproduce effectively on Earth, suggesting potential for future space agriculture. Zheng highlighted that the space-bred rice possesses unique traits, such as a higher sugar content, with sugar levels estimated to be five to six times higher than standard rice. The space-bred rice also showed a slight increase in protein content. “That means space-bred rice tastes sweeter and has more energy,” she added.
Space breeding, the method used in this experiment, exposes seeds to space radiation and microgravity, generating gene mutations ( 基因突变). These mutations are carefully assessed upon the seeds’ return to Earth, sometimes resulting in advantageous traits like shorter growth times, improved disease resistance, and higher output. Zhao Hui, an expert in China Academy of Space Technology, emphasized the safety of space-bred food, explaining that unlike genetically modified crops, space-bred seeds naturally mutate without introducing foreign genes. However, the space-bred rice has fewer leaves, which complicates close planting. Researchers are planning further studies to understand these leaf traits and explore possible genetic changes.
The Tiangong rice experiment marked a milestone for crop science, as it was the first time that rice had completed a full life cycle — from seed germination (发芽)to reproduction — in orbit.
What can we know about the space-to-ground experiment
Seeds grown in orbit promise higher crop quality.
Seeds bred in space were further grown successfully on Earth.
New species of seeds grown in space have achieved great success.
Climate conditions were controlled when seeds were sent into orbit.
What does the underlined words “traits” mean in paragraph 3
Materials. B. Arrangements. C. Disadvantages. D. Characteristics.
What does Zhao Hui stress about the space-bred rice
Its security. B. Its artificial process. C. Its nutrition. D. Its major shortcoming.
Which of the following is the best title
Organic Farming: High-quality Planting in Space.
Space Exploration: A Journey to the Space and Beyond.
New Planting Approach: Replacing the Traditional Farming.
Space-to-ground Cycle: Promising Future Space Agriculture.

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。
Vacations are an essential part of every person’s life. Following long seasons of hard work, it is well deserved to get away from busy schedules and enjoy nature.
While tourism is good, it has its dark side. Besides emission-based pollution, tourism also contributes heavily to plastic pollution. This kind of pollution can be reduced by advocating for sustainable vacationing.
_ 36 When it comes to ecotourism, your inspiration for others to take action is equally important.
37 If a park says no to feeding wildlife, simply avoid feeding them. Most times, what we interpret as affection for wildlife puts them at risk. If parks allowed every person to feed animals, chances of the animals dying from food poisoning are high.
In our efforts to protect nature, we may fail to appreciate other people’s cultures. The local communities in the Amazon are a part of the forest’s life. When you visit such local communities, you may find them participating in some practices that may seem unfriendly to the ecosystem or wildlife. 38 Trying to listen and interact with communities opens more doors to bring in change than criticism does.
Most people are not sustainability conscious. 39 We have many ways to be sustainable and one is sharing your ideas. The sustainable option you choose may seem absurd to another person. However, sharing your experience may help others have different perspectives.
At the end of the day, sustainable vacationing should help you not only reduce negative environmental impact but also awaken society to such a reality. 40 However, every small step contributes to a more sustainable world.
No rule fits all situations concerning this topic.
The reason for this is that they think it cannot be achieved.
Protect our lives from potential danger by following regulations.
The best way to care for nature and wildlife is to follow the rules.
Instead of being critical, take your time to learn from their practices.
An ecotourist focuses on protecting nature, culture and social practices.
The term ecotourism is often used interchangeably with sustainable tourism.

Be Kind to Every Kind
Growing up in a city, surrounded by tall buildings, Albert found animals to be a rare and attractive presence. However, while he loved animals, he never truly understood how to treat them with the respect they deserved.
His parents had noticed Albert’s lack of responsibility. They had long tried to teach him the value of patience and care, but city life seemed to fuel his impatience. They knew something had to change.
This winter break, Albert’s parents took him to visit his cousin Camille, who lived on a farm far from the city. Camille had learned from a young age how to care for animals. Albert’s parents hoped the trip would help him develop a deeper sense of responsibility and kindness — not just toward animals, but toward the world around him.
When they arrived at Camille’s farm, Camille greeted them warmly, her face shining with the satisfaction of farm life. “Ready to meet the animals in the barn (畜棚) ” she asked Albert.
Albert nodded eagerly.
Albert saw the sheep first. He bent down to get a closer look, his hand reaching out toward them. However, as soon as he moved, the sheep scattered (散开), their eyes wide with unease. Albert was confused. “Why did they run away "
Camille smiled but explained gently, “They’re not used to sudden movements. Animals can get scared just like people. It’s important to be calm and patient with them.”
Next, they visited the cows. Albert thought they would be easy to approach, but when he tried to wave a carrot in front of one, it barely reacted. He impatiently moved closer, trying to get its attention, but the cow simply ignored him.
“It’s not a game, Albert,” Camille said, noticing his frustration( 沮丧).“They’re not toys. You have to earn their trust. It’s just like being with people. If we rush or ignore their boundaries, they pull away, right ”
Albert hesitated. He had never considered that animals, like people, had their own boundaries and comfort zones.
注意:
续写词数应为 150 个左右;

Last week, an environmental art exhibition organized by the student union was held in the school auditorium to raise eco-awareness, with over 50 students contributing recycled-material artworks.
Displays ranged from artworks made of bottle caps to energy-saving posters. A highlight was a solar-powered house model crafted from cardboard and plastic bottles, demonstrating renewable energy’s accessibility.
Seeing trash transformed into solutions inspired me. Small actions like reducing single-use plastics or repurposing items now feel impactful. This event taught me that collective creativity, not grand gestures, fuels environmental progress. Schools should nurture such projects to inspire broader eco-conscious habits.

Later in the afternoon, Camille led Albert to feed the young sheep. She handed him a handful of grass and demonstrated how to approach the animals quietly and slowly. Albert followed her instructions, moving carefully and extending his hand. One sheep carefully stepped forward and smelled the food in his hand. A sense of achievement filled Albert’s heart as he remained calm and continued offering the grass. Camille smiled, watching him. “It’s about kindness,” she said gently. “When you respect their space, they’ll trust you.”
That evening, Albert’s parents entered the barn, surprised by what they saw. Albert sat on the grass-covered floor, surrounded by the lambs, who were now comfortable with him. He was talking to them softly and petting them. His parents stood in the doorway, watching him with interest. Albert looked up and noticed their surprised expressions. “Animals aren’t just here for us to play with,” he said. “They have feelings too. I think I understand now.” His mother smiled, realizing that Albert had grasped the importance of kindness and respect for all living beings.

M: You are not alone. Many people say they do not get good sleep at night.
W: Are there any ways to get through this
M: Yes. First, leave your work and daily responsibilities aside about an hour before going to bed. Second, try to eat in the early evening hours. But do not go to bed very hungry, either. Try small amounts of food with protein or healthy fats, like cheese, or peanut butter on whole grain bread. Plus, remember not to drink coffee before bed. Third, keep away from phones.
W: The first two points are easy to do for me except the last one. You know I always lose myself in watching short videos on my phone before bed.

W: After finishing my cultural relic protection studies course at Peking University in 2015, I have ever been engaged in restoring more than 100 ancient cultural relics.
M: Well, what do you usually do for the work
W: To restore ancient books to their original form, we need to gather information from various sources before we can make sure their original style and repair them accordingly.
M: Wow, it's a demanding job.
W: Yeah. In the past, restorers had to rely on their experience to determine the appropriate materials to use for a project. As the technology has developed, they are able to use a new method to finish the task through microscopes. However, an ancient
- book restoration still requires essential manual skills.
M: It is meaningful and the restoration process is complicated.
W: Yes. The ancient books restoration technique of the National Library was listed as a national - level intangible cultural heritage in 2008.
M: Fantastic. What do you wish for
W: Hopefully, I can be of some help in inspiring more young people to find their lifelong passion in the field of cultural heritage preservation.

The special art exhibition showed more than 100 paintings by nearly 180 disabled students. The students are from special education schools and ordinary schools across the region. Each piece of work was created by students themselves. The teacher only helped them when they had problems. Some students with intellectual or physical disabilities could not hold a pen well enough, so the teachers had to hold their hands to help them draw circles or straight lines.
These paintings combine elements of Thangka, traditional Chinese painting, and contemporary techniques. They showed the life experiences and dreams of the students.
Tenzin Wase is a middle school student in Lhasa. He visited the exhibition and took photos of the artworks that impressed him. He said, “Some of the buildings in the paintings are so impressive that they remind me of my hometown, the city of Xigaze.”
