China’s New National Parks Systems
China’s new national parks system brings wildlife all under unified national management, the aim of which is for the general protection of large habitats that reach into multiple regions. The full national parks system is marked for completion by 2035.
Three-River-Source National Park-Qinghai & Tibet
The park covers 123,000 sq km of high-altitude wilderness on the Tibetan Plateau. Protected species include snow leopards, wild yaks, and Tibetan gazelles and antelope. There are few tourist facilities yet, but travelers can arrange treks to the source of the Yellow River at Zhaling Lake.
Wuyi Mountain National Park-Fujian
Its dramatic gorges and rivers are home to thousands of types of protected wildlife like migratory birds and rare amphibians. Bamboo rafting along the Jiuqiu (Nine Bends) River is a popular activity, and many visitors come to explore the lst-century archaeological remains of Han City.
Giant Panda National Park - Sichuan, Shaanxi & Gansu
It is home to 1,631 wild pandas. Also living within the borders of the park are numerous other protected species like the snub-nosed monkey. The park incorporates several existing panda breeding and research centers, including the Wolong Giant Panda Garden and Ya’an Bifengxia Panda Base.
Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park-Hainan
It is home to 20% of the country’s amphibians and 39% of its birds, as well as the world’s rarest primate, the critically endangered Hainan gibbon. The national park encompasses a number of existing reserves, including Jianfengling National Forest Park, where hiking trails lead around lakes and up peaks, offering visitors the chance to be immersed in the rainforest and spot rare flora and fauna in the wild.

If you hear someone say that there’s “an elephant in the room”, there’s no need to be worried. This is an idiom that means there’s a big, clear problem or difficult situation that people don’t want to talk about. It’s almost as if there’s an elephant standing in the corner, but everyone is pretending it’s not there! So you might understand why “The elephant in the room” is the name Dutch artist Johannes-Harm Hovinga gave to his new project.
For 20 days during June and July, 2024, Hovinga sat in a museum in the Dutch city of Arnhem and used a tool to make holes in the 7,700-page United Nations report on climate change.
This was an artistic protest. He wanted to draw attention to climate change and to show that the world’s governments aren’t doing enough to try to save the planet. “Climate change is the elephant in the room”, Hovinga was saying through his art— the big, clear problem that we’ re not doing enough about.
He had printed the pages of the report on different colored paper so that when he made the holes, there were large piles of colorful circles next to the table where he sat. People were able to watch Hovinga making his holes between June 22 and July 14, and see those piles getting bigger. Some visitors were touched as they watched, the museum said.
Each day, Hovinga sat for six hours making holes, only drinking water and taking short breaks to use the bathroom. He said he began taking painkillers after two days because of the pain in his back, neck, and arms. The project ended on July 25 when Hovinga returned to take the paper piles away. But he has more hole-making projects planned for the future.
24.Why is the idiom mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To lead in the name of a project.
B. To describe an interesting scene.
C. To explain a common language usage.
D. To show a special animal painted by an artist.
25.What is Hovinga’s purpose of his behavior
A. To promote his artworks. B. To help protect the earth.
C. To advertise a new art style. D. To call for action to care for elephants.
26.Which of the following can best describe Hovinga
A. Odd but flexible. B. Humorous and energetic.
C. Picky but productive. D. Creative and responsible.
27.What can be learned from the last two paragraphs
A. Hovinga had great fun doing his work.
B. Hovinga wants more people to join him.
C. Hovinga will continue with similar projects.
D. Hovinga broke off the project because of pain.
C
Recent studies indicate that both animals and plants possess the ability to swiftly adapt to challenging environmental conditions to ensure their survival. A study published in the journal Trends in Plant Science explores the rapid adaptation processes of plants in response to climate change and how these adaptive traits are inherited by their offspring (后代).
Plants are encountering more environmental challenges than ever. For instance, in numerous regions, the impact of climate change is leading to shorter winter seasons, and plants are adapting accordingly. “Many plants require a minimum period of cold in order to set up their environmental clock to define their flowering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University of Florence. “As cold seasons shorten, plants have adapted to require shorter periods of cold to delay flowering. These processes allow plants to avoid flowering in periods when they have fewer opportunities to reproduce.”
Since plants lack neural systems, their memory functions rely entirely on cellular, molecular (分子的), and biochemical networks. These networks make up what the researchers call somatic memory (体细胞记忆). “It allows plants to recognize the occurrence of a previous environmental condition and to react accordingly,” says Martinelli.
These somatic memories can then be transmitted to the plants’ offspring through epigenetics (表现遗传). “Several examples demonstrate the existence of molecular processes modulating plant memory to environmental stresses and affecting the adaptation of offspring to these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Moving forward, Martinelli aims to gain deeper insights into the specific genes that are being inherited. “We are particularly interested in decoding the epigenetic code without changes in DNA sequence (序列),” he says. “This is especially important when we consider the rapid climate change, we observe today that every living organism, including plants, needs to quickly adapt to survive.”
28.How have plants adjusted to shortened cold seasons
A. They have shortened their flowering time.
B. They have got more chances to reproduce.
C. They have avoided flowering in cold seasons.
D. They have adjusted their environmental clock.
29.What can we learn about somatic memory
A. It is completely dependent on neural networks.
B. It can enhance the survival of the plants’ offspring.
C. It can help relieve environmental stresses.
D. It disturbs the plants’ biochemical networks
30.What does the underlined word “modulating” mean in paragraph 4
A. Adapting. B. Valuing. C. Recording. D. Sharing.
31.What’s the main idea conveyed in the text
A. Plants are smart about flowering time.
B. Plants are also capable of adapting to climate change.
C. Environmental pressures challenge plants.
D. The secrets of plant genes are to be uncovered.
D
Thanks to technology development, healthcare services are more accessible than ever. Hospitals have committed to digitally enabled care going mainstream and more health services have gone online than ever before. But are older people who don't use the Internet being left behind
A study by Lancaster University found that lots of older people still avoid online life completely or use the Internet only on occasion. There are various reasons why older people don't use the Internet. For many, a lack of confidence in their own ability to use technology raised fears about security, particularly with online banking.
Whatever the reasons are, one of the biggest concerns about an off line older generation is the likelihood that they will miss out on big developments in health accessibility, especially as many useful health services move online. Madeleine Starr MBE, director of business development and innovation at Carers UK, said,“ Though many of us use technology in our everyday lives, seven out of ten people don't yet think of technology when it comes to caring. So, many are not yet realizing the benefits of this technology. Accessing appointments, ordering prescriptions(处方) or having consultations online can all help reduce visits to doctors and unplanned hospital visits.”
In an aging society, the Internet can make a huge amount of difference to older people requiring a bit of extra support and those caring for them. “Advice from specialist websites or symptom checkers is great for those who are unsure if their symptoms are cause for concern or find it difficult to get to a doctor's appointment. Technology is making it easier to offer remote care and support for older people, helping them remain independent. The information on the Internet can prevent older people from taking their health into their own hands”, adds Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK.
However, services need to remain accessible to those who aren't online. While it's fine to support older people getting online, those who choose not to or cannot do so, for whatever reason, should not be treated like second- class citizens. They must still be able to access services in other ways that suit them.
32.What is the main purpose of paragraph 1
A. To list some important facts. B. To raise a topic to be discussed.
C. To express the main idea of the text. D. To introduce new advances in science.
33.What might be the big concern about off line older people
A. They will suffer from terrible loneliness.
B. They will face risks from online banking.
C. They will fail to benefit from advanced online healthcare.
D. They will underestimate the role of modern technology in healthcare.
34.Why does the author mention Caroline Abrahams' words in paragraph 4
A. To stress the popularity of the Internet.
B. To reveal technology is developing very fast now.
C. To indicate the big challenges an ageing society faces.
D. To show the Internet is of great importance to older people.
35.What is the message the author wants to convey in the last paragraph
A. Health services should get support from professionals.
B. Older people should be encouraged to place their health first.
C. Older people should receive some training in using the Internet.
D. Health services should be offered in ways that suit different people.

Most people spend a lot of their lives on their feet, just getting from here to there. Though it may seem less than self-evident, it turns out that not wearing shoes when walking or running could be beneficial for foot-strength, balance, and the awareness of body motion. 36.______. However, the ability to use one’s feet properly can have an effect on the whole body. And that’s where walking barefoot comes in.
According to a 2021 study published in Nature, people who walked barefoot for six months increased their foot strength by over 57 percent. 37.______. Some other benefits of walking barefoot include increasing body awareness, a better gait (步态) which can help with the mechanics of your knees and core, and less pain in your lower back due to stronger leg muscles.
“Our feet are actually really strong and can deal with the demands we place on them. 38.______,” Rina Harris, a foot expert, said. “And the majority of modern shoes don’t allow their wearers to use all the benefits their feet provide. The cushioned insoles (缓冲鞋垫) make it hard to get sensory input through the feet, and the ends of most shoes squish (挤压) the toes together, making it difficult to engage all the feet muscles.”
However, it’s important not to just go diving feet first into barefoot walking. You must have the appropriate amount of foot strength first before taking on barefoot walking or running as a lifestyle. Also, it’ s important to begin walking barefoot inside for fifteen to twenty minutes, increasing the time as you get stronger. 39.______. It’s also a good idea to practice some simple balance exercises as well. Once you have gained the necessary strength and experience, you can try your hand at something more intensive, like barefoot running. 40.______.
A. However, we don’t use them as nature intended
B. It also helped them with their balance and reduced falls
C. Whether in the sand or on grass, a mindful walk works wonders
D. So next time you get up on your feet, consider leaving your shoes behind
E. Foot strength isn’t something people tend to spend much time thinking about
F. Shoes strongly limit the movement of specific areas of the feet, especially the toes
G. Once you move outside, practice on safe surfaces such as grass or a sandy beach

You Will Always Be My Teacher, Grandpa
Chitose was leaving for France to get further study. However, the last lesson was a disaster. Chitose and her grandpa had a huge fight. She arrived at the studio smiling and said, “Look Grandpa, I painted this portrait of you.” The man in the portrait had a lot of hair, stood straight, looked young, and smiled. Chitose might be talented enough to attend an art college in France, but she has a big weakness as an artist. When she paints a person, too often she paints an idealized image rather than the real person. Grandpa had been explaining this point to her for several months, but she just wouldn’t listen.
Grandpa got a little angry and said to her, “This is not me, and you are not a real artist.” She got angry too and said she didn’t care because she didn’t need him as a teacher anymore. Grandpa then showed her the portrait he had painted as her farewell gift and said, “This is the real you!” She took one look at it and said, “No, it isn’t!” and then left.
Grandpa gave the portrait of Chitose to her parents. He had done the portrait a couple of months before Chitose started changing her style, and he thinks it shows the high school student he taught for two years. When Grandpa painted it, she still had her natural curly hair. She was not wearing all the accessories (配饰) she has now, including the ring shaped earrings she loves. She also never wore makeup then. This was a Chitose with a fantastic future who knew she was still an amateur artist. But now she is getting older and wants to act and look more like an adult. However, she will never become a great artist if she stops learning.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Chitose’s mom secretly put the portrait into one of Chitose’s suitcases when she left home for France.

Chitose painted a portrait of her grandpa and herself.

24.答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段If you hear someone say that there's "an elephant in the room", there's no need to be worried. This is an idiom that means there's a big, clear problem or difficult situation that people don't want to talk about. It's almost as if there's an elephant standing in the corner, but everyone is pretending it's not there! So you might understand why "The elephant in the room," is the name Dutch artist Johannes-Harm Hovinga gave to his new project.(如果你听到有人说"房间里有头大象",不必担心。这是一个习语,意思是存在一个明显的大问题或棘手的局面,而人们却不愿提及。就好像真有一头大象站在角落里,但每个人都假装它不存在!这下你或许就能明白,荷兰艺术家Johannes - Harm Hovinga为何将他的新项目命名为"房间里的大象"了。)可知,提到这个习语是为了引出荷兰艺术家新项目的名字。故选A。

Nations report on climate change.(2024年6月至7月间的20天里,Hovinga坐在荷兰阿纳姆市的一家博物馆内,用一种工具在长达7700页的联合国气候变化报告上打孔。)可知,Hovinga是有创造力的;再根据文章第三段This was an artistic protest. He wanted to draw attention to climate change and to show that the world's governments aren't doing enough to try to save the planet.(这是一场艺术抗议活动。他想引起人们对气候变化的关注,并表明世界各国政府在拯救地球方面做得还远远不够。)可知,Hovinga是负责任的。故选D。

C
28.答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“Many plants require a minimum period of cold in order to set up their environmental clock to define their flowering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University of Florence. “As cold seasons shorten, plants have adapted to require shorter periods of cold to delay flowering. (佛罗伦萨大学的植物遗传学家Martinelli说：“许多植物需要一个最短的寒冷期来设置它们的环境时钟，以确定它们的开花时间”“随着寒冷季节的缩短，植物已经适应了需要更短的寒冷期来推迟开花)”可知，植物是通过调整环境时钟来适应缩短的寒冷季节的。故选D。
29.答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段 “These somatic memories can then be transmitted to the plants’ offspring through epigenetics (表现遗传). “Several examples demonstrate the existence of molecular processes modulating plant memory to environmental stresses and affecting the adaptation of offspring to these stresses,” says Martinelli.(然后，这些体细胞记忆可以通过表观遗传传递给植物的后代。马蒂内利说：“一些例子证明了存在调节植物对环境压力记忆的分子过程，并且这些过程会影响后代对这些压力的适应”)”可知，体细胞记忆能传递给后代且影响后代对环境压力的适应，从而增强后代的生存能力。故选B。
30.答案：A

31.答案：B
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段“Recent studies indicate that both animals and plants possess the ability to swiftly adapt to challenging environmental conditions to ensure their survival. A study published in the journal Trends in Plant Science explores the rapid adaptation processes of plants in response to climate change and how these adaptive traits are inherited by their offspring (后代).(最近的研究表明，动物和植物都具有迅速适应具有挑战性的环境条件以确保生存的能力。发表在《植物科学趋势》杂志上的一项研究探索了植物对气候变化的快速适应过程，以及这些适应特征是如何遗传给它们的后代的。）”以及后文对植物适应气候变化的具体阐述可知，文章主要围绕植物适应气候变化展开。故选B。

35.答案： D
解析：推理判断题。文章最后一段指出虽然鼓励和支持老年人上网是好的,但那些选择不上网或不能上网的人,无论出于何种原因,都不应该被视为二等公民,因此我们可以 推断出作者认为应该给不同的人提供合适的医疗服务。

第二节
答案：
Chitose’s mom secretly put the portrait into one of Chitose’s suitcases when she left home for France. When she discovered it, she saw a Chitose who was willing to listen in order to improve her art. She realized that the Chitose she’d become was different. She wanted to prove to everyone that she was an adult and had stopped listening to others. After realizing her weakness, she started learning again and her art got much better.
Chitose painted a portrait of her grandpa and herself. The portrait won first prize in a young artists competition. She painted herself like her grandpa did, as Chitose the high school student with a lot of potential. She also painted her grandpa as she really sees him. The wrinkles are proof of his wisdom. The stick shows he will overcome his physical challenges. His bent back shows that he has poured all his strength into what he loves the most: his art and his granddaughter.
