My father’s thrift (节俭) philosophy shaped my youth. Unlike peers receiving pocket money, I never got a penny — not from cruelty, but to build self-reliance. Each morning, he’d note, “Mrs. Wilson needs her garden weeded; Mr. Carter requires help sorting bottles. ” I earned coins through seasonal work in the neighborhood: sweeping leaves, shoveling snow and babysitting.
Savings filled the tin under my bed, its weight showing my growing pride. Though he occasionally borrowed for emergencies (a flat tire or a medical bill), repayment was exact and timely. When I lost two months’ earnings in a failed lemonade business, his only words were, “Live and learn. ” At twelve, I considered this cruel; at thirty, I value its wisdom — true lessons grow through doing.
Modern thrift education focuses on saving, but ignores its key point: earning. Father believed “earned coins teach value; given coins generate greed” — a truth wealthy families overlook while advocating thrift. By delivering papers at dawn and mowing lawns at dusk, I learned that true thrift is a triad (三位一体) — earn through labor, save with intention, spend with care. This trio, unteachable in classrooms, roots in blistered (满是水泡的) hands and difficult situations.
Locally, supermarkets throws outdated bread (still eatable) as shelters beg for donations. Witnessing global contrasts inspires my resolve: 1. 3 billion tons of food go bad annually — enough to feed all the hungry — while 800 million starve. This phenomenon fuels my Food Rescue project — redirecting bakery remains to food banks and training youth to reuse deserted furniture for schools. Through such acts, thrift becomes social justice. As Father said, “Earning teaches respect for resources. ” In our wasteful era, thrift transforms from personal discipline to collective duty.
24. Why did the author work for neighbors during his youth
A. To raise fund for his project.
B. To help neighbors in need.
C. To meet his father’s principle.
D. To solve weight problems.
25. What does the author now think about his father’s words “Live and learn”
A. A plus. B. A burden. C. A dilemma. D. A cruelty.
26. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. The role of true thrift.
B. The examples of true thrift.
C. The core of true thrift.
D. The challenges of true thrift.
27. Why does the author mention the global food waste data
A. To evaluate modern school systems.
B. To stress thrift’s application in society.
C. To urge stricter laws against food waste.
D. To compare different consumption habits.
C
One major issue in contemporary medical science is the use of humans in clinical trials of medical products. These trials occur frequently to determine the best way to manage diseases.
People are invited randomly and paid to take part in trials of an experimental drug, or new surgical procedure, in a number of countries at the one time. For example, up to a quarter of patients in some fields like breast cancer may be engaged. Other projects, one of which is to determine whether new scanning techniques can detect Alzheimer’s disease, are under way. They may be given the drug or a placebo (安慰剂), or the best existing treatment, and results compared. The trials may be ”blind” with the patient not knowing which group they are in or they may be a “double-blind” with the doctors not knowing either.
Actually, so many people offer themselves willingly. Patients take the views that at least they will get special attention from the doctor if they participate and they may get access to new drugs before they become available in chemists’ shops. In some countries people are paid to participate, especially in poorer countries where they may be told little of what is actually happening.
Yet there are significant risks too. One US study estimated that one in 30 people suffered side effects from such trials, and one in 10, 000 dies. Doctors say that the risk is not so great during the trial itself, where patients are closely monitored, but comes when the drug is released on the market place. For example, in 2004 a US company recalled an arthritis drug, when it was found that after 18 months of use, the risk of heart attack and stroke increased.
People who support testing claim the risks to the individual are small compared with the benefits. Even if the individual has adverse outcomes and their condition worsens, that is valuable information for the drug company. While the drug companies usually pay for the hospital trials, government has set up medical committees to handle the issue.
28. What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A. The purpose of medical trial.
B. The procedure of medical trial.
C. The groups of medical trial.
D The result of medical trial.
29. Why does the author mention the example in the fourth paragraph
A. To tell us a lot of patients die from the medical trials.
B. To show the risk of heart attack and stroke has increased.
C. To introduce the risks of the medical trials are not so great.
D. To explain the risks of some drugs appear when they are sold.
30. What does the underlined word “adverse“ in the last paragraph mean
A. negative B. effective C. unpleasant D. impressive
31. What would the author most probably discuss next
A. How the government prevents clinical trials.
B. How the government gathers the information.
C. How the medical committees pay for the hospital trials.
D. How the medical committees solve the problem.
D
Evolution can perform spectacular changes. But some organisms like the coelacanth, a modern-day fish, seem to change very little over eras.
Scientists have long wondered how these species withstand the pressures of natural selection. The current theory for this “stasis paradox (停滞悖论)” is that stabilizing selection, which favors moderate features, keeps some species unchanged, unlike directional selection that causes change. However, a study published in the PNAS contradicts this idea, showing that evolution constantly favors different features in seemingly unchanging animals that improve short-term survival. In the long term, though, “all that evolution cancels out and leads to no change, ” says the study’s lead author, James Stroud, a biologist at the Georgia Institute.
Stroud and his colleagues studied four anole lizard(变色龙蜥蜴) species, all relatively unchanged for 20 million years, living on a small island in Florida. The researchers captured members of these populations every six months for three years. They measured each lizard’s head size, leg length, mass and height, as well as the size of its sticky toe pads, noting which individuals survived. Stroud expected to observe stabilizing selection at work preserving moderate features. Instead he saw clearer evidence of directional selection: some lizards with unique features, such as stickier toes survived better in the short term.
In each generation, though, the best features changed — for instance, long legs aided survival in some years and short legs in others. The direction and strength of selection swung so much that sometimes there was no clear pattern.
Because the new study shows that natural selection favored extreme features from year to year rather than moderate ones, its results don’t support the theory of stabilizing selection. Many new features are evolving in the short term, but they don’t provide a crucial advantage over the long term. In other words, species in stasis may simply have found the best possible combination of features for lasting success in their environment.
So what happens when a static(静态的) species environment changes more dramatically To help answer this bigger question, Stroud is still making trips to Florida to follow ever more generations of the lizards.
32. What is “stasis paradox” according to the text
A. Directional selection keeps some species unchanged.
B. Some species change rapidly while others remain unchanged.
C. Some species seem free from the pressures of natural selection.
D. Stabilizing selection prefers extreme features keeping species changed.
33. What did Stroud and his colleagues do in the study of anole lizards
A. Comparing different lizard species and studying their fossils.
B. Studying various features of lizards and their survival.
C. Measuring the survival rate of lizards every year.
D. Focusing on the living conditions of lizards.
34. What did Stroud find in the study of anole lizards
A. Some features of lizards changed in a short term.
B. Stabilizing selection played a key role in evolution.
C. Many evolved new features can offer a lasting benefit.
D. Sharp environment changes caused great effects on lizards.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Stabilizing Selection: The Key to Species Stasis.
B. Stasis Paradox: The Traditional Theory Proven Right.
C. Directional Selection: The Dominant Force in Species Evolution.
D. Rethinking Stasis Paradox: Insights from Anole Lizard Studies.

Many high school seniors approach the college application essay with anxiety. They feel their lives are too ordinary to create a story that will impress admissions officers. ____36____ It just needs to be a genuine reflection of their personal growth, drawn from everyday moments.

So look into the things that shape you. ____37____

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。
I was really starving when I stepped out of the city library after an entire afternoon buried inbooks. Then I smelt something delicious—the hot dog stand at the street corner.
"One hot dog, please!"I nearly rushed to the stand.
“OK, ready soon!”The vendor(摊主)replied cheerfully. As he handed me the hot dog, he grinned, "You deserve the best hot dog in the world!"I guessed that was the slogan for his little business, for the words were painted in cheerful yellow letters on his cart.
I couldn't wait to take a bite. The warm bread, the chilli sauce and the juice in the sausage—it was the best thing in the world!Definitely at that time!
"Five dollars, young lady, "the vendor said, wiping his hands on his apron.
Hot dog in one hand, I reached for my wallet with the other. Just then, "Ouch!"a cry came from behind me. I turned back and found a woman in her 50's struggling to pick herself up from the ground. Her grocery bag split open with oranges rolling in every direction.
Seeing this, I stuffed the rest of the hot dog into my mouth, picked up the oranges and put them back into her bag. "Are you okay "I asked with concern.
"Thank you. I didn't see the pole on the ground, "she breathed. Noticing her hand was wounded, I remembered the Band-Aid(创可贴)in my bag and dug it out. "Thank you so much for your kindness, "the woman said as I carefully applied it to her wound. Across the street, the bus I was about to take was pulling in. Waving a goodbye to the woman, I dashed to the bus stop and barely got aboard before the door closed.
As the bus pulled away, I saw the woman bought a hot dog from the same vendor. On theway, I was always wondering if she would be greeted with the same words, "You deserve the best hot dog in the world!"I was lost in it. . .

第一节：参考范文
Dear Thomas,
I’m writing to share an amazing activity, Transform Waste into Treasure, which I participated in last week.
For my work, I collected some used plastic bottles and old newspapers. After cutting the plastic bottles into various shapes, I rolled the newspapers into sticks to connect the plastic parts and added some colorful markers and small decorations. Then a unique wind chime was born, making pleasant sounds and creating a beautiful sight when the wind blows.
This activity was truly rewarding. It enhanced my creativity and practical skills and deepened my understanding of environmental protection. Transforming waste into something useful made me realize every effort counts in protecting our planet.
Have you ever participated in any school activities I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours ,
Li Hua

Wait —had I forgotten something The hot dog money!My heart sank as therealization hit me. The bus kept moving forward, but all I could think about wasrushing back to make things right immediately. Every second on the bus was torture. When it finally pulled into the next stop, I leapt off, hurried across the street andcaught a bus back. To my relief, the vendor was still there. Heart pounding, I went up, five dollars in hand. “Sorry, Sir, "I apologized, handing him the bills. "I forgot to payfor the hot dog. "
"Someone has paid for it, "the vendor smiled. Seeing the surprised look on myface, he added that the lady I helped just now paid the money and said kindnessshouldn't go unpaid. A sudden warmth flooded my chest. Touched and also inspiredby the words, I insisted on paying the five dollars, telling the vendor the hot dog fornext kind person was on me. "By the way, the hot dog is great, "I complimentedbefore leaving. Hearing that, the vendor grinned cheerfully, “Kind people deserve thebest hot dog in the world!"

Hello, everyone! Today my presentation will be focused on the latest development and application of AI . Nowadays, AI is making remarkable progress in various fields. For example，AI powered customer service system can answer customers questions and address their inquiries at any time , greatly improving customer satisfaction. In the field of security, AI based image recognition technology plays a crucial role.
It can quickly identify criminals from a large database of images. Once a suspect appears，the system can alert the security personnel immediately. However, when it comes to using AI for medical diagnosis，improving the reliability of AI made diagnosis remains a challenge.
Although AI can analyze large amounts of medical data, medical diagnosis is extremely complex and requires high accuracy. A wrong diagnosis may cost a life. Some people worry that AI will replace human workers in the future, but I think it will also create opportunities. For example, in factories AI controlled robots can improve production efficiency and in schools, AI based learning tools can provide personalized learning plans for students. The impact of AI continues to grow.
Thanks for listening.

【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者父亲的节俭哲学对其成长的影响，阐述了真正节俭的核心，并通过全球食物浪费现象说明节俭可成为社会正义。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“My father’s thrift (节俭) philosophy shaped my youth. Unlike peers receiving pocket money, I never got a penny — not from cruelty, but to build self-reliance. Each morning, he’d note, “Mrs. Wilson needs her garden weeded; Mr. Carter requires help sorting bottles. ” I earned coins through seasonal work in the neighborhood: sweeping leaves, shoveling snow and babysitting. (我父亲的节俭哲学塑造了我的青春。与那些拿到零花钱的同龄人不同，我一分钱都没拿到过——这并非出于他的残忍，而是为了培养我的自立能力。每天早上，他都会说：‘威尔逊夫人需要有人给她的花园除草；卡特先生需要有人帮忙分拣瓶子。’我通过在社区里做季节性的工作来赚取硬币：扫落叶、铲雪和照看孩子)”可知，作者在年轻时为邻居工作是为了遵循父亲培养他自立的原则。故选C项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“When I lost two months’ earnings in a failed lemonade business, his only words were, “Live and learn. ” At twelve, I considered this cruel; at thirty, I value its wisdom — true lessons grow through doing. (当我在一次失败的柠檬水生意中损失了两个月的收入时，他只说了一句：“吃一堑，长一智”十二岁时，我认为这很残酷；三十岁时，我珍视这句话的智慧——真正的教训是通过实践获得的)”可知，作者现在认为父亲说的“吃一堑，长一智”是有价值的。故选A项。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Father believed “earned coins teach value; given coins generate greed” — a truth wealthy families overlook while advocating thrift. By delivering papers at dawn and mowing lawns at dusk, I learned that true thrift is a triad (三位一体) — earn through labor, save with intention, spend with care. (父亲认为“挣来的硬币能教会人懂得价值；白给的硬币会滋生贪婪”——这是富裕家庭在倡导节俭时忽略的一个事实。通过黎明送报纸和黄昏修剪草坪，我明白了真正的节俭是三位一体的——通过劳动挣钱、有目的地存钱、谨慎地花钱)”可知，该段主要阐述了真正节俭的核心。故选C项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Locally, supermarkets throws outdated bread (still eatable) as shelters beg for donations. Witnessing global contrasts inspires my resolve: 1. 3 billion tons of food go bad annually — enough to feed all the hungry — while 800 million starve. This phenomenon fuels my Food Rescue project — redirecting bakery remains to food banks and training youth to reuse deserted furniture for schools. Through such acts, thrift becomes social justice. (在当地，超市扔掉过期但仍可食用的面包，而收容所却在乞求捐赠。目睹全球的这种反差激发了我的决心：每年有13亿吨食物变质——这些食物足以养活所有饥饿的人——而有8亿人在挨饿。这种现象促使我开展了‘食物救援’项目——将面包店剩余的食物转运到食品银行，并培训年轻人为学校重新利用废弃家具。通过这些行动，节俭变成了社会正义)”可知，作者提及全球食物浪费数据让人震惊，为的是强调节俭在社会中的应用。故选B项。
C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述当代医学科学的一个主要问题是在医疗产品的临床试验中使用人体，并且主要介绍了医学试验的程序，意义和风险。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“People are invited randomly and paid to take part in trials of an experimental drug, or new surgical procedure, in a number of countries at the one time. (人们被随机邀请并支付报酬，同时在多个国家参加实验性药物或新外科手术的试验。)”以及下文的例子可知第二段主要讲述医学试验的程序。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Doctors say that the risk is not so great during the trial itself, where patients are closely monitored, but comes when the drug is released on the market place. For example, in 2004 a US company recalled an arthritis drug, when it was found that after 18 months of use, the risk of heart attack and stroke increased. (医生们说，在试验期间，患者受到密切监测，风险并不大，但当药物投放市场时，风险就会出现。例如，2004年，一家美国公司召回了一种关节炎药物，因为它被发现在使用18个月后，心脏病发作和中风的风险增加了。)”可知作者在第四段提到这个例子实在解释一些药物在出售时出现的风险。故选D。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“People who support testing claim the risks to the individual are small compared with the benefits. (支持测试的人声称，与好处相比，测试对个人的风险很小。)”可推测下文意思是“即使患者有不良后果，病情恶化，这对制药公司来说也是有价值的信息。”由此可猜测单词adverse意为“负面的”，故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“While the drug companies usually pay for the hospital trials, government has set up medical committees to handle the issue. (虽然通常由制药公司支付医院试验费用，但政府已经成立了医疗委员会来处理这一问题。)”可推断下文最有可能讨论医疗委员会如何解决这个问题。故选D。
D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了科学家们对物种停滞悖论的研究，特别是通过对变色龙蜥蜴的研究来挑战传统理论，提出了新见解。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But some organisms like the coelacanth, a modern-day fish, seem to change very little over eras. (但是一些生物，比如腔棘鱼，一种现代的鱼类，似乎在很长一段时间里变化很小。科学家们长期以来一直想知道这些物种是如何抵抗自然选择的压力的。目前对这种‘停滞悖论’的理论是，稳定选择有利于中等特征，使一些物种保持不变，这与导致变化的定向选择不同。)”和第二段“Scientists have long wondered how these species withstand the pressures of natural selection. The current theory for this ‘stasis paradox’ is that stabilizing selection, which favors moderate features, keeps some species unchanged, unlike directional selection that causes change. (科学家们长期以来一直想知道这些物种是如何抵抗自然选择的压力的。目前对这种‘停滞悖论’的理论是，稳定选择有利于中等特征，使一些物种保持不变，这与导致变化的定向选择不同。)”可知，停滞悖论指的是一些物种在长时间内似乎没有发生显著变化，即它们似乎不受自然选择压力的影响。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Stroud and his colleagues studied four anole lizard species, all relatively unchanged for 20 million years, living on a small island in Florida. The researchers captured members of these populations every six months for three years. They measured each lizard’s head size, leg length, mass and height, as well as the size of its sticky toe pads, noting which individuals survived. (Stroud和他的同事研究了四种变色龙蜥蜴，它们在佛罗里达的一个小岛上生活了2000万年，几乎没有变化。研究人员在三年内每六个月捕捉一次这些种群的成员。他们测量了每只蜥蜴的头部大小、腿长、质量和高度，以及它粘性脚趾垫的大小，并记录哪些个体存活了下来。)”可知，Stroud和他的同事研究了蜥蜴的各种特征及其生存情况。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“In each generation, though, the best features changed — for instance, long legs aided survival in some years and short legs in others. (然而，在每一代中，最好的特征都会发生变化——例如，在某些年份，长腿有助于生存，而在其他年份，短腿则有助于生存。)”可知，蜥蜴的一些特征，如腿长，在短期内是会发生变化的。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了科学家们对物种停滞悖论的研究，特别是通过对变色龙蜥蜴的研究来挑战传统理论，提出了新见解。选项D：Rethinking Stasis Paradox: Insights from Anole Lizard Studies. (重新审视停滞悖论：来自变色龙蜥蜴研究的启示)准确地概括了文章的主题。故选D。
七选五
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何写出好的论文提出了一些建议。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Many high school seniors approach the college application essay with anxiety. They feel their lives are too ordinary to create a story that will impress admissions officers. (许多高中毕业生都带着焦虑来写大学申请论文。他们觉得自己的生活太过平凡，无法编造一个能打动招生官的故事)”以及后文“It just needs to be a genuine reflection of their personal growth, drawn from everyday moments. (它只需要真实地反映他们的个人成长，从日常生活中汲取灵感)”可知，本句与上文构成转折关系，指出强有力的文章需要真实，而不是编造的故事。故G选项“但是一篇强有力的文章并不需要一个戏剧性的故事”符合语境，故选G。
【37题详解】
根据上文“I once worked with a boy who had no idea what to write about. Family Favorite subject He kept silent until I suggested, “Hobbies ” He shyly said, “I like boxing. ” Then his essay unfolded, not about boxing itself, but about self-discipline and resilience (坚韧), qualities that any college would admire. So look into the things that shape you. (我曾经和一个不知道写什么的男孩一起工作。家庭吗？最喜欢的科目吗？他一直保持沉默，直到我提议：“爱好？”他害羞地说：“我喜欢拳击。”然后，他的文章展开了，不是关于拳击本身，而是关于自律和韧性，这些品质是任何一所大学都会钦佩的。所以看看那些塑造你的东西)”可知，上文主要论述了如何找到文章的主题然后展开文章的建议。故F选项“一旦找到了主题，这篇文章就自然而然地写好了”符合语境，故选F。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Some students try to catch attention by writing their essays in unconventional forms, such as a poem or a play. Most still follow the traditional storytelling model: a hook (引子), a story, and a lesson learned. (一些学生试图通过非传统的形式来吸引注意力，比如一首诗或一个剧本。大多数仍然遵循传统的讲故事模式：一个引子，一个故事，一个教训)”可知，上文列举了不同的讲故事模式，本句承接上文，说明这些形式的作用。故E选项“无论采用何种形式，一篇文章都会因为它的故事而脱颖而出”符合语境，故选E。
【39题详解】
根据上文“As a writing tutor, I was hung up on language rules at first. Should I help my students stick to “standard English, ” or let them write the way they naturally speak — even if that includes informal expressions (作为一名写作导师，一开始我对语言规则很着迷。我应该帮助我的学生坚持“标准英语”，还是让他们用他们自然说话的方式来写——即使其中包括非正式的表达？)”以及后文“It’s also about expressing ideas naturally and making connections with readers. It doesn’t hurt to tell a humorous childhood incident in a light, conversational tone. (这也是关于自然地表达想法，与读者建立联系。用轻松、对话的语气讲述一个幽默的童年事件并没有什么坏处)”可知，本句主要是作者对于写作中的语言的感悟，故C选项“我很快意识到写作不仅仅是语言”符合语境，故选C。
【40题详解】
根据后文“Essay writing teaches students to express themselves with precision through rethinking ideas, refining language, and rewriting drafts. With multiple edits, they will uncover deeper insights and create a story only they can tell. (论文写作教会学生通过重新思考思想、精炼语言和重写草稿来精确地表达自己。通过多次编辑，他们将发现更深入的见解，并创造一个只有他们才能讲述的故事)”可知，后文提到经过编辑，文章会融入更深入的见解，说明了修改对于文章的重要性。故B选项“一篇伟大的文章最终是在修改中形成的”符合语境，故选B。
