Ⅰ．阅读理解(共8小题；每小题2.5分，满分20分)
A
In 1957 a group of physicists gathered in a lecture hall at Princeton University to be addressed by a Chinese American woman．As she told the crowd about her recent experiment and its results，the response was dead silence for two minutes，then a thunderous applause continued for ten minutes．The woman was Chien-Shiung Wu，known as the First Lady of Physics，who transformed nuclear science through her work on the Manhattan Project and other groundbreaking experiments．
Born in 1912 near Shanghai，China，Wu was influenced by her father，an engineer，and her mother，an educator．Unlike many Chinese women of her time，she received a formal education．Fascinated by new discoveries and the story of women scientists like Marie Curie，she entered National Central University to study physics and then began her scientific studies．
It was a time of rapid change in both the field of physics and China．Domestic unrest and a bad relationship with Japan made life at home uneasy．With the help of an uncle，she immigrated to the United States for graduate school．
Wu planned to go to the University of Michigan，but a tour of the University of California，Berkeley—and word that a student center at Michigan did not allow female students to enter through the front door—changed her mind．At Berkeley Wu was visible for her gender and race，and from the start her male colleagues commented as much on her physical appearance as her keen mind．She quickly gained a reputation and became an expert in the newly discovered phenomenon of nuclear fission (核裂变)．
After graduation，she headed to Smith College to teach women physics．During World War Two Wu went to Princeton University，where she became the physics department's first female instructor．But shortly after her arrival，her career took an unexpected turn in 1944．She ended up joining the staff at Columbia University on a top-secret research program now known as the Manhattan Project．
1．Which word best describes the lecture in paragraph 1
A．Boring．　　　　　 B．Humorous．
C．Excellent． D．Common．
2．What inspired Wu to study physics
A．The background of her family．
B．The success of women scientists．
C．The formal education she received．
D．The rapid change in the field of physics．
3．What happened to Wu in America
A．She was looked down on at Berkeley．
B．She went to the University of Michigan at first．
C．She taught women physics at Princeton University．
D．She joined a top-secret research program at Columbia University．
4．Which of the following best describes Wu as a scientist
A．Modest and independent．
B．Creative and warm-hearted．
C．Responsible and cautious．
D．Committed and ambitious．
B
Eugene Newman Parker，a leading figure in heliospheric (日球层) physics for the past half century，passed away peacefully at his home in Chicago on Mar．15．He was 94．
Acknowledged as a visionary in the field of heliophysics，Parker changed our understanding of the sun and its effects on earth and other bodies within the solar system．NASA even stated that “the field of heliophysics exists in large part because of Dr．Eugene Parker”．In 2018，Parker became the first living scientist to witness the launch of a spacecraft that was named in his honor．
Parker is best known for his groundbreaking theory on the existence of a phenomenon called “solar wind”，a continuous stream of charged particles that flow off the sun．It can become violent，causing space weather that impacts the earth．When Parker's research was published in 1958，his theory was initially met with skepticism (怀疑) and ridicule by the scientific community．The general view at the time was that the space between planets was an absolute vacuum (真空)，and was thus completely empty of any matter．But，there were no errors in his study or his calculations，and the theory was later proven to be correct in 1962，when a NASA spacecraft mission to Venus revealed the constant presence of a supersonic wind—exactly as Parker had predicted．
That experience likely led to the advice Parker often gave young researchers：“If you do something new or innovative，expect trouble．But think critically about it because if you're wrong，you want to be the first one to know that．” Parker never co-authored a paper with his students，thus urging them to be independent．
Parker was humble，straightforward，and wise．His son Eric said，“My sister Joyce and I didn't get a real feel for what a ‘big dog’ our dad was in the field．” They got an even better sense when a month after Parker's death，they traveled to Lund，Sweden，to accept on his behalf the Crafoord Prize in Astronomy．
5．What can we learn from the second paragraph
A．A spacecraft was named in memory of Parker．
B．The sun has less effect on earth than expected．
C．Parker deserved credit for his great contributions．
D．NASA provided new insights into the lunar effect．
6．Why did people view Parker's theory of “solar wind” skeptically at first
A．Some mistakes were found in his calculations．
B．It went against the popular opinion at that time．
C．The presence of a supersonic wind was proven by NASA．
D．Matter was believed to exist in the space between planets．
7．What advice did Parker often give to young researchers
A．Expect challenges and critically evaluate your work．
B．Stick to conventional methods to minimize risks．
C．Depend on your professor for decision-making．
D．Cooperate frequently to ensure success．
8．What words can be used to describe Parker according to the passage
A．Responsible and accessible．
B．Straightforward and generous．
C．Distinguished yet modest．
D．Intelligent yet peculiar．

Ⅲ．读后续写(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。
I was born with a rare disease．My parents gave me my first toolbox when I was five years old，because they thought playing with Lego (乐高) could help improve my flexibility．Although it was difficult to put all the pieces together，I made my first Lego car．As I grew older，I became interested in Lego Technic，which allowed me to create more complicated things．By the age of nine，I had made my first prosthetic arm (义肢) using Lego Technic—a simple box that perfectly suited my right arm．
This early creation drove me for further exploration．Years later，I developed another prosthetic arm called the MK-Ⅰ．It had fingers，a motor，a sensor that felt pressure，a moving elbow，and a grabber to pick up things．
Before constructing it，I had already decided against traditional prosthetics．Not because they were ineffective，but because playing with Lego did significantly improve my flexibility，helping me adapt to my condition．Besides，a more disappointing reason was that traditional prosthetics were too expensive．My parents and I had found one a few years earlier，only to be discouraged by the costly price．So，I concluded that I might not need to buy one because I was trying to make a better one．Moreover，the pure joy of creating prosthetics with Lego Technic kept me going on．
As the years passed，my creations changed from MK-Ⅰ to the more advanced and comfortable MK-Ⅴ．It featured a control unit that could send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors，with cables that work like muscles．
One day，a couple with their eight-year-old son，who lost both arms in an accident，came to me after learning about my creations．Short of money，they couldn't afford well-functioning prosthetics．“Tom，” the father sincerely asked，“we were wondering if you could help build a set of prosthetics for our son．”
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
I knew it would be a challenging and demanding task，but I responded with a “yes”．____________________________________________________________

Ⅱ．【参考范文】
The scientist I admire most is Yuan Longping，an outstanding agricultural scientist known as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”．
A few decades ago，the lack of food was one of the main problems threatening Chinese people．After years of study，Yuan Longping successfully developed the world's first hybrid rice，which dramatically increased rice production．His approach to rice breeding also serves as a solution to food problems around the globe．
His story gives me inspiration and motivates me to love science，and I would like to make contributions to it in the future．
Ⅲ．【参考范文】
I knew it would be a challenging and demanding task，but I responded with a “yes”． The boy raised his head with his once lifeless eyes now shining with a spark of hope．Smiling warmly at him，I immediately set out to do the task．Considering the factors like the family's financial situation，his physical condition and personal interests，I carefully selected the Lego pieces that were suitable for him．Gradually，the boy's unique prosthetics took shape．It's time for them to fulfill their intended purpose．
I rushed to the boy's home and put the prosthetics on him． Holding breath，we waited anxiously for the result—they worked！The room was filled with cheers！The boy，with tears of happiness in his eyes，rushed to his parents to embrace them in the biggest hug he hadn't been able to give for years．The scene was truly inspiring．Never had I imagined that my creations，originating purely from amusement，would someday make such a significant difference．It is on that day that I made up my mind to devote myself to making a lifelong impact on the field of prosthetic innovation．
