Traveling can be a way to gain life experiences especially during Spring Break — a week-long school vacation in the United States. But what if you’re a student and don’t have enough money for a trip Don’t worry. Here are some useful suggestions.
●Save: This probably is the most important preparation for traveling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you’ll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.
●Plan ahead: Don’t wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice. Giving yourself several weeks to get ready can mean security and savings.
●Do your homework: No matter where you go, research the places you will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.
●Plan sensibly: Write down what you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.
●Travel in groups: Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places. By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.
●Work as you go: Need more money to support your trip Look for work in the places you visit.
●Go off the beaten path: Tourist cities may be expensive. You may want to rethink your trip and go to a lesser-known area. Smaller towns can have many interesting activities.
●Pack necessary things: The most important things to take are not always clothes. Remember medicine in case you get sick and snacks in case you don’t like the food.
●Use the Internet: The net can help to save money. Some useful websites include www.bargain.com and www..
By planning sensibly, even students can enjoy the travel. Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.

As a young man, Noah was a skilled artist — a potter by trade — with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son complained of a severe stomachache. Mistaking it for a common intestinal (肠的) disorder, neither Noah nor his wife took the condition very seriously. Yet, tragically, the boy passed away that very night.
Consumed by guilt and remorse, Noah could not forgive himself for failing to recognize the danger. His grief was compounded when, not long after, his wife left him, unable to bear the shared sorrow. Alone with his six-year-old younger son, Ernie, Noah found the pain unbearable and turned to alcohol for escape. Over time, he sank into alcoholism which drove him to lose everything he ever possessed, who, eventually died in a small bar. Hence many, including myself, regarded him as a broken man, a failure whose spirit had been corroded by loss and regret, increasingly corrupting to the chasm (深渊).
However, as times went by, my perception of Noah began to shift as I came to know his son Ernie, now a grown man. To my admiration, Ernie proved to be one of the most compassionate and caring individuals I had ever met. The warmth and tenderness he showed to his own children made me wonder where such goodness originated. I realized it must have been nurtured somehow, even in a household shadowed by tragedy.
Though Ernie seldom spoke of his father, I eventually gathered the courage to ask what Noah had done to raise such an exceptional person. Ernie replied softly, “From my earliest memories until the day I left home at 18, my father came into my room every single night, kissed me, and said, ‘I love you, son.’”
Hearing this, I was deeply moved and ashamed of my earlier judgment for which I subjectively assume that he was a failure with nothing until his death. In turn, albeit Noah had not accumulated wealth or status, he had given his son the one thing that truly mattered: unwavering love. In the quiet consistency of those nightly rituals, he had built a legacy of affection that lived on through Ernie — a love stronger than failure, also, stronger than gigantic grief.
4. What caused the death of Noah’s older son
A. Misdiagnosis of common disorder. B. Unwanted fees for treatment.
C. Poor resistance to the disease. D. The neglect of the severity.
5. What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 probably mean
A damaged. B. enhanced. C. altered. D. intensified.
6. Which of the following is true during Noah’s misfortune
A. He escaped to another city to avoid sinking into sadness.
B. He began to run a bar and earned a lot of wealth.
C. He had nurtured his son with wonderful characteristics.
D. He was scolded by many because of irresponsibility.
7. What does the author try to convey through this passage
A. Love fails encountering failure and sorrow. B. Love exists even in the cracks and darkness.
C. Love is only delivered through legacy. D. Love is the most profound gift that one can give to another.
Stars are among the most fundamental and identifiable objects in the night sky. They not only light up the darkness but also dot the vast expanse of our galaxy. A star is born within clouds of cosmic dust and gas, gradually gathering mass until nuclear fusion ignites in its core (核), transforming it into a brilliant, glowing sphere (天体). However, every single star, no matter how massive or luminous, must eventually exhaust its energy and come to a halt.
A key question in astronomy is: how long do stars live Take our sun, for example — a 4.5 billion-year-old middle-aged star. It shines through the process of fusion, combining hydrogen atoms (原子) into helium under extreme pressure and temperature. In time, the sun will deplete the hydrogen in its core and begin its decline.
A star dies when it exhausts its nuclear fuel. How this happens depends largely on its mass. Truly massive stars burn through their hydrogen rapidly, but their immense heat allows them to fuse heavier elements like helium, carbon, and even iron. Once no fuel remains, the core collapses violently, and the outer layers blast away in a spectacular supernova(超新星)explosion. What remains is either an incredibly dense neutron star(中子星)or, if the original star was massive enough, a black hole.
Medium-sized stars, such as those up to 1.4 times the mass of the Sun, meet a gentler end. As they run out of hydrogen, they expand into red giants (红巨星), fusing helium instead. Eventually, they shed their outer layers, forming beautiful glowing clouds known as planetary nebulae (星云). The core that remains becomes a white dwarf (白矮星) — a hot, Earth-sized remnant that cools over billions of years.
The smallest stars, called red dwarfs (红矮星), consume their fuel so slowly that their lifespans may extend beyond 100 billion years — far longer than the current age of the universe. Thus, a star’s mass ultimately dictates both its life and its death.
8. What can we learn about a star according to the first two paragraphs
A. No nuclear fusion is required for forming a star.
B. A star with luminous shine can avoid being dead.
C. Clouds of spatial dust and gas are the source areas of a star.
D. Only sun can combine hydrogen atoms into helium.
9. What is the main purpose of giving an example of sun in paragraph 2
A. To let us know how long a star lives.
B. To tell us the inner logic of a star’s survival and extinction.
C. To make a comparison between the sun and the other stars.
D. To let us deeply know the sun.
10. Which of the following descriptions about the death of stars is true
A. Stars with enough massive energy will transform into a red dwarf.
B. Once the nuclear fuel of a random star is used up, its outer layer will occur a spectacular explosion.
C. A medium-sized star’s outer layer will finally be shed to form a beautiful planetary nebula.
D. Red dwarfs consume their fuel the most quickly.
11. Which may be the best title of this passage
A. How Stars Die B. How Universe Revolves
C. Glowing Sphere: The Secret of Stars. D. The Origin of Universe: Atoms’ Duty.
Researchers continue to reveal surprising complexities in animal communication. Elephants greet one another with ear flaps and low rumbles; sperm whales modify their clicks in different contexts; naked mole-rats (裸鼹鼠) even develop unique regional “accents.” But can animals actually learn the language of another species Evidence shows some species do recognize and use other animals’ vocalizations (发声) — though scientists avoid applying human language concepts directly. Instead, they examine specific features of communication, such as whether particular sounds convey consistent meanings.
Birds are among the most studied animals in this field. One key study focused on migrating songbirds, which often travel alone. Researchers found that these solitary birds can interpret the alarm and flight calls of other species along their migratory path, using the information to navigate and avoid predators (捕食性动物). Benjamin Van Doren from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and his team analyzed vocalizations occurring between different species, uncovering robust evidence of cross-species understanding. This discovery challenges the long-held idea that songbirds migrate in isolation. Still, the precise meaning behind these calls remains unknown.
Perhaps the most striking example of using another species’ signals comes from the fork-tailed drongo (叉尾卷尾鸟), found in Africa. These clever birds deceive (欺骗) meerkats and other animals to steal food. They begin by sounding their own genuine alarm call — a signal that warns of predators. When meerkats hear it, they scatter, abandoning their food. But when the meerkats become skeptical, the drongo switches tactics: it mimics (模仿) the alarm calls of other species, including the meerkats’ own alarms. According to biologist Thomas Flower, who has extensively studied drongos, they flexibly imitate the specific species they are targeting.
This behavioral flexibility suggests a form of open-ended learning — an ability to acquire new signals through experience, similar to how humans learn language. Young drongos learn through trial and error, mimicking sounds before fully understanding their effects. However, it remains difficult to prove whether this deception is intentional or results from learned associations. “Despite unanswered questions, these studies demonstrate that cross-species communication is far more sophisticated than previously believed”, said Thomas Flower. Obviously, animals can not only understand but also use the signals of other species to their advantage — revealing deeper layers of intelligence in the animal kingdom.
12. Why are the animals mentioned in the first paragraph
A To exhibit specific instances.
B. To introduce a research finding.
C. To illustrate an evolutionary rule.
D. To show evidences of recent studies.
13. What message does Benjamin’s discovery convey
A. Songbirds migrate in groups.
B. The meaning of birds’ calls are known.
C. Songbirds can avoid predators by travel alone.
D. Birds are likely to have cross-species bonds.
14. What can we learn about drongos
A. They can use vocalization to cheat other species intentionally.
B. They can release signals of predators to their peers selectively.
C. They can wisely learn other species’ behavior situationally.
D. They can steal food by pretending to be predators knowingly.
15. What does Thomas’s words mean in the last paragraph
A. No contribution in previous studies was made to unveil the truth.
B. The nature of cross-species interflow is hidden in a complex veil.
C. Animals use cross-species signals at the aim of making a profit.
D. The output of animal linguistic signals is interest-oriented.

How to Take Notes That Really Work
Note-taking is more than just writing down what you hear or read. It is a powerful tool for learning, helping you to understand and remember information. However, not all note-taking methods are equally effective. ___16___.
First, be selective. Don’t try to write down every single word. Listen for keywords, dates, names, and main ideas. Capture definitions, examples, and anything the teacher emphasizes or repeats. ___17___.
Meanwhile, it is efficient if you can use some practical measures. One of the most popular ones is the Cornell Method. ___18___: a main notes region, a cue column for keywords and questions, and a summary area at the bottom. This structure encourages you to review and summarize your notes shortly after class.
___19___. Develop a system of abbreviations (缩写) and symbols that you understand. Use arrows, asterisks(*), and exclamation points(!) to highlight important points. The goal is to make your notes clear and efficient for later review.
Finally, the real magic happens after you properly use your notes. ___20___. This doesn’t have to take long; even a quick 5-minute review can dramatically improve your memory. Explain the concepts in your own words to a friend or to yourself. This process will quickly reveal any areas you don’t fully understand.
Remember, great notes are not created; they are curated. By actively listening, choosing the right method, and reviewing regularly, you will see a significant improvement in your learning efficiency.
A. By following these strategies, you can transform your notes into a key that unlocks deeper understanding.
B. It involves dividing your page into three sections.
C. Then it’s possible and feasible for you to remember them.
D. This process of filtering information forces you to engage with the material actively.
E. Second, you don’t have to decorate them so perfect that you cut your time to digest them.
F. Don’t just stuff them in your backpack and forget them.
G. Another point to remember is that your notes are for you.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写，使之构成一篇完整的文章。
For years the old violin case sat in the attic, covered in dust. To sixteen-year-old Leo, it was just another piece of forgotten family history. He was too busy with his own world of video games and friends to care about it.
One rainy afternoon, his grandmother visited. Her eyes softened when she saw the case. “This belonged to your grandfather,” she said, her voice warm with memory. “He played this violin every evening after work. It was how he expressed all the joy and hardship he couldn’t say with words.”
Skeptical but curious, Leo opened the case. Inside lay a beautiful, weathered violin. Gently, his grandmother placed it in his hands. “He always hoped one of his grandchildren would feel the music too.”
Feeling a strange connection, Leo decided to try. The first sounds were screechy and awful. But he persisted. He found online tutorials and practiced secretly after school. Weeks turned into months. The screeches slowly softened into hesitant notes, and then into simple, recognizable melodies.
He didn’t just learn to play the violin; he learned about patience and dedication. He learned about his grandfather’s immigration story, his struggles, and his quiet love for his family — all stories whispered through the music Leo was now learning to create.
On his grandmother’s eightieth birthday, Leo, with a nervously beating heart, brought the violin to the family party. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
However, everyone still encouraged him. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
