Johnson Public Library in Johnson, Vermont has just started a new chapter. Built in the early 1900s, the building has flooded more times than Johnson town administrator Thomas Galinat can count. In the last two years alone, it has been damaged in three different flood events, with a severely damaging moment in July 2023, when 9 feet of water filled the building.
As the only historic Georgian revival-style building in the city, the library’s building holds significance. And according to a 2017 engineering study, if the building were to stay in the same place, Galinat said, the city would have to do hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of management to keep it—and its entire basement storage—from sinking.
The city rallied（振作精神）. They were determined to pick up the historic building and move it out of the danger zone. And last Saturday—April 26—was moving day. Using 28 large lifting vehicles, 60 to 70 construction workers, a dozen service workers, four police cruisers, two ambulances, and a fire truck, the community rolled the 119-ton library about a half-mile through town. Making its way across the river, and over a bridge, the library and its staff moved overnight in darkness. After traveling across the downtown section of a two-road state highway, Route 15, Johnson Public Library is now re-settled between Johnson Elementary School and Legion Field.
“We are not just jacking up and rolling the physical building down the street, we are creating a new center of Johnson that is free from the risk of flooding,” Galinat stated. “This is a message for Johnson, and all of Vermont, it is time to do something different.”
Along with the volunteers who advocated for the move, local youths also painted the boards protecting the library’s windows during the trip.
One of the signs sums it all up. “Library magic,” it reads.
24．What caused the move of Johnson Public Library
A．Historic value. B．Volunteer efforts.
C．Natural disasters. D．Construction demand.
25．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．The failure in the move. B．The details of the moving process.
C．The impact of relocation. D．The community’s determination.
26．What does Galinat think of the relocation of the library
A．Wasteful. B．Risky. C．Indifferent. D．Innovative.
27．What does the underlined part “Library magic” in the last paragraph mean
A．The future of the library. B．The library’s importance.
C．The community’s unity. D．The wonder of the move.
Researchers studying the brains of songbirds have found that aging influences the gene expressions that control the birds’ song. The finding could lead to earlier diagnoses and better treatments for human neurodegenerative (神经变性的) disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, which affect vocal production in their early stages.
The study found that networks of interacting genes, in a region of the bird’s brain involved with singing, dramatically change as the bird ages. At the center of these networks are “hub genes (key control genes) ” that drive activity of many other genes. A better understanding of the hub genes could be crucial to developing treatments for age-related disorders.
Zebra finches (斑胸草雀), native to Australia, have a strikingly similar-looking brain to humans’, particularly the brain movement-control area, which is used for motor function, including speech. The finches also develop their birdsong by copying their parents and other birds around them — the same way humans learn to speak.
Perhaps most importantly to researchers, the birdsong is also a measurable marker for changes in the brain, enabling scientists to track changes in sound height, volume, and strength. Researchers recorded the songs of 36 birds, ranging widely in age, and studied how the genes associated with singing began to behave differently as the birds grew older.
“There is some hopeful news in that the bird is still able to produce the song behavior, even with the genetic changes, and it suggests that there are also some ways that the bird is adapting to what’s going on in the brain,” says Miller, an associate professor in the neuroscience department. “This might offer recovery methods for humans.”
Miller says she hopes further research can shed more light on the changes to the hub genes as the finches age.
28．What role do hub genes play in the gene networks
A．They make other genes function.
B．They are direct age-related genes.
C．They stay unchanged as birds age.
D．They offer treatment to disorders.
29．What primarily makes finches suitable for brain aging research
A．Their brain structure. B．Their singing ability.
C．Their relation to humans. D．Their way of learning.
30．How did the researchers measure changes in the birdsong
A．By observing the birds’ daily activities.
B．By recording songs of birds of varying ages.
C．By comparing songs to human vocal patterns.
D．By changing the birds’ sound height of songs.
31．Which factor of songbirds can bring hope to humans in resisting aging
A．Their genetic changes. B．Their ability to adapt to aging.
C．Their changes to the hub genes. D．Their act of producing the song.
In 1807, the German naturalist Alexander Humboldt made a famous drawing of Chimborazo volcano in Ecuador. One side was green with clouds; the other had species names at different heights. It’s a reminder of the richness of life a single mountain can hold.
Recent studies show mountains often have more species than plains and jungles nearby. Though covering only 25% of Earth’s land (excluding Antarctica), mountains are home to 87% of species. But biodiversity varies wildly from one mountain to the next, which has been difficult to explain. Some scientists have called this “Humboldt’s mystery”.
Now, a new paper published in the journal Science suggests that the very process of mountain formation might be the cause of this phenomenon — the rate and strength of geological uplift determine how rocks, river channels, and microclimates divide the land into different parts, and how many different ecological regions will form. The authors found that the higher the mountain and the faster the uplift rate, the greater the biodiversity that the mountains possess.
To measure how the rise of a mountain range influences evolution, researchers ran a series of mountain building simulations (模拟),where they placed a population of 100 individuals of a single species of rodent (啮齿动物) on a plain and watched how they spread and adapted under different rates of land rising over the span of 20 million years. The team chose rodents as they’re sensitive to habitat changes and diverse in mountain ecosystems with fossil records. The simulation could be adjusted for other species.
As simulated mountains rose, animals moved to new habitats and some got separated. This led to new species over time. Species variety was linked to mountain rising speed and height, and this pattern held even when model data changed.
An outside expert said this study elegantly showed mountain uplift and geography’s big impact on species diversity. For example, the fast-rising Andes are species-rich, while the Atlas Mountains have lower diversity. Earth’s outer layer movements may shape creature adaptation and evolution over millions of years.
32．Why was the famous drawing of Chimborazo volcano mentioned in paragraph 1
A．To show respect for the painter. B．To prove the richness of mountains.
C．To introduce the topic. D．To describe the drawing.
33．What makes “Humboldt’s mystery” puzzling
A．Slow evolution of species. B．Plains having more species.
C．Limited mountain fossil records. D．Varying biodiversity across mountains.
34．What fact does the comparison between the Andes and Atlas Mountains support
A．Faster uplift links to more species. B．Height aids the survival of rodents.
C．Older mountains have fewer species. D．Human impact on Atlas biodiversity.
35．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．As Climate Shifts, Mountain Life Adapts.
B．As Mountains Rise, Biodiversity Improves.
C．With Global Warming, Species Face Extinction.
D．With Height Increasing, Habits Become Broken.
Use Habit Stacking（堆积）to Help Get Healthy
Lindsay Kee, a woman in Portland, started her daily exercise habit with one activity—walking her dog. Kee then added movements to this daily activity. 36 On her return, she did other exercises such as jumping jacks.
Over time, Kee added more exercises during the dog walk. She said adding exercises to an existing activity took the pressure off creating a whole new daily exercise. And now, a year later, she always exercises when walking the dog. What Kee did is called habit stacking. 37 The idea behind habit stacking is to attach something you want to start doing to something you already do every day.
38 Kee, for example, places her vitamins next to the coffee machine. This helps her remember to take them every morning. Exercise experts say habit stacking is especially helpful if you are trying to increase exercise time.
Dana Santa is a movement expert who has trained more than 50 professional sports teams. She combines exercise habits with personal health care. For example, Santa does push-ups before every shower. 39 She says that her electric toothbrush makes a sound every 30 seconds to remind her to brush different teeth. But she uses the reminder to change her exercises. “It’s perfect,” she adds.
Two minutes of exercise may not get you in shape. However, experts say every little bit helps. They suggest getting minutes of moderate activity, like a fast walk, every week. Or you could also get minutes of very energetic activity, like jogging, every week. 40
A．You can use habit stacking in your daily life.
B．And she does leg exercises while brushing her teeth.
C．It prevented Kee from developing the habit of exercising.
D．A writer created this term for his book of the same name.
E．Before leaving on the walk, she did some standing stretches.
F．Exercise experts think it difficult for people to keep new habits.
G．They also advise regular strength training to achieve a healthy lifestyle.

六、书面表达
67．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。
It was early Tuesday morning when I was driving my usual bus route in Wheeling, Illinois. The temperature had dropped below zero, and the streets were covered in snow and ice. As I rounded a corner, I found a teenager walking aimlessly outside, just dressed in a light coat. I immediately pulled over, got out of the bus, and rushed to check on him. He was shivering（颤抖）uncontrollably, his lips turning blue, making it clear that he was in immediate danger. I realized that I needed to act fast to keep him safe.
I wrapped my coat around the teenager, brought him onto the bus to warm up, and called the police right away. While waiting for the police to arrive, I tried to communicate with him, but he didn’t respond. I later learned that he was named Joseph, a 13-year-old boy with a mental disability who had wandered away from home. His mother had noticed the front door unlocked and Joseph’s bedroom door wide open. She had called out his name loudly and rushed outside to search for him, but by then, he had already gone quite far. “It was five degrees below zero,” she later said. “He was walking through snow and ice. His feet could have frozen, and he didn’t know how to cross the street.”
When the police arrived, they struggled to identify Joseph due to his communication difficulties. Fortunately, a program called Return Home Safe provided immediate help. Developed by Paul, the program maintained a database of identifying information for special needs and deaf residents. Thanks to the program, the police helped reunite Joseph with his family. Finally, we all breathed a sigh of relief.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究人员通过研究鸣禽大脑，发现衰老对控制鸟鸣的基因表达有影响，该发现或为人类神经变性疾病的诊断与治疗提供帮助。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“At the center of these networks are “hub genes（key control genes）” that drive activity of many other genes.(这些网络的核心是“中枢基因（关键控制基因）”，它们驱动着许多其他基因的活动。)”可知，中枢基因在基因网络中的作用是使其他基因发挥功能。故选A项。
29．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Zebra finches (斑胸草雀), native to Australia, have a strikingly similar-looking brain to humans’, particularly the brain movement-control area, which is used for motor function, including speech.(原产于澳大利亚的斑胸草雀，其大脑结构与人类惊人地相似，尤其是用于运动功能（包括语言）的大脑运动控制区域。)”以及第四段中的“Perhaps most importantly to researchers, the birdsong is also a measurable marker for changes in the brain, enabling scientists to track changes in sound height, volume, and strength.(对研究人员来说，或许最重要的是，鸟鸣也是大脑变化的可测量标志，这使科学家能够追踪声音高度、音量和强度的变化。)”可知，斑胸草雀适合用于大脑衰老研究，主要是因为其大脑结构与人类相似，且鸟鸣能作为大脑变化的可测量标志，核心在于大脑结构，由此可知，草雀的脑结构使其适合进行脑老化研究。故选A项。
30．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Researchers recorded the songs of 36 birds, ranging widely in age, and studied how the genes associated with singing began to behave differently as the birds grew older.(研究人员记录了36只年龄跨度很大的鸟的鸣叫，并研究了随着鸟年龄增长，与鸣叫相关的基因是如何开始表现出不同行为的。)”可知，研究人员通过记录不同年龄鸟类的鸣叫来测量鸟鸣的变化。故选B项。
31．细节理解题。根据第五段中的““There is some hopeful news in that the bird is still able to produce the song behavior, even with the genetic changes, and it suggests that there are also some ways that the bird is adapting to what’s going on in the brain,” says Miller, an associate professor in the neuroscience department. “This might offer recovery methods for humans.”(米勒说：“有一个好消息是，即使基因发生了变化，这种鸟仍然能够进行鸣叫行为，这表明这种鸟也有一些方法来适应大脑中发生的变化。这可能为人类提供恢复方法”)”可知，鸣禽对衰老的适应能力为人类抵抗衰老带来了希望。故选B项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨山脉生物多样性差异的原因，指出山脉形成过程中的地质隆起速率和强度对其生物多样性有重要影响。
32．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“In 1807,the German naturalist Alexander Humboldt made a famous drawing of Chimborazo volcano in Ecuador...It’s a reminder of the richness of life a single mountain can hold.(1807年，德国博物学家亚历山大·洪堡绘制了一幅著名的厄瓜多尔钦博拉索火山图……这提醒着人们一座山就能承载丰富的生命。)”以及后文围绕山脉生物多样性展开论述可知，提及这幅火山图是为了自然引出“山脉生物多样性”这一核心话题。故选C项。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But biodiversity varies wildly from one mountain to the next, which has been difficult to explain. Some scientists have called this “Humboldt’s mystery”.(但不同山脉之间的生物多样性差异巨大，这一现象难以解释。一些科学家将其称为“洪堡之谜”)”可知，“洪堡之谜”的困惑之处在于不同山脉的生物多样性存在显著差异。故选D项。
34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“An outside expert said this study elegantly showed mountain uplift and geography’s big impact on species diversity. For example, the fast-rising Andes are species-rich, while the Atlas Mountains have lower diversity.(一位外部专家表示，这项研究巧妙地展示了山脉隆起和地理环境对物种多样性的重大影响。例如，快速隆起的安第斯山脉物种丰富，而阿特拉斯山脉的生物多样性较低。)”可知，安第斯山脉（快速隆起，物种丰富）与阿特拉斯山脉（未提及快速隆起，多样性低）的对比，是为了支撑“山脉隆起速度越快，物种多样性越高”这一观点。故选A项。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“Now, a new paper published in the journal Science suggests that the very process of mountain formation might be the cause of this phenomenon — the rate and strength of geological uplift determine how rocks, river channels, and microclimates divide the land into different parts, and how many different ecological regions will form. The authors found that the higher the mountain and the faster the uplift rate, the greater the biodiversity that the mountains possess.(如今，发表在《科学》期刊上的一篇新论文指出，山脉形成过程本身或许就是这一现象的成因 —— 地质隆起的速率与强度，决定了岩石、河道及微气候如何将陆地分割成不同区域，以及最终会形成多少个不同的生态区。论文作者发现，山脉海拔越高、隆起速率越快，其拥有的生物多样性就越丰富。)”可知，文章核心围绕“山脉隆起与生物多样性的关系”展开，即山脉隆起速度越快、高度越高，生物多样性越丰富。所以标题为“随着山脉隆起，生物多样性增加”。故选B项。

66．Dear Jenny,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m writing to share my experience at the science and technology exhibition held in our city museum last weekend.
The exhibition was a feast for the eyes. There were various high-tech products on display, from smart home appliances to the latest robots. The atmosphere was lively, with people of all ages showing great interest. Some were carefully observing the exhibits, while others were interacting with the staff to learn more.
I was deeply impressed by the power of technology. It made me realize that innovation is the driving force behind our progress. I'm eager to know your thoughts.
Best regards,
Yours,
Li Hua
67． Curious about what inspired Paul to create the program, I went to ask him. Paul told me that it was his daughter, who was born deaf, that motivated him. One day, his daughter got lost in a mall. The chaos and fear during the search left a deep mark on him. He realized that special-needs individuals faced unique risks. So, he dedicated himself to developing the Return Home Safe program, aiming to provide a safety net for them. His story was a powerful reminder of the impact one person’s initiative could have.
Moved by the story of Paul and his daughter, I decided to join the program. I signed up as a volunteer, eager to contribute. I started by helping update the database, ensuring the information was accurate and up-to-date. I also participated in awareness campaigns, spreading the word about the program. I knew that every small effort counted. Through my work, I hoped to prevent more families from experiencing the heart-wrenching fear that Paul and his family once went through.
