Michigan, nicknamed “Pure Michigan,” offers year-round outdoor recreation. Its national parks, blessed with forests, lakes, and beaches, provide activities from kayaking (皮划艇) in July to cross-country skiing in January.
Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
On Lake Superior, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore features colorful sandstone cliffs like Chapel Rock and Miners Castle. Year-round activities include camping, hiking, snowshoeing, ice climbing, and cross-country skiing. Visitors can explore the 19th-century-AuSable Light Station and take glass-bottom boat tours to see shipwreck remains in warmer months.
Iste Royale National Park
Isle Royale National Park, a remote Lake Superior island with a short season from April 15 to November 1, is among the nation’s least-visited parks. Accessible only by ferry, seaplane, or private boat, cars are not allowed. Accommodations range from Rock Harbor Lodge to rustic Windigo Camper Cabins, with backpack camping also available.

My son still tells people this story, though he and I remember it differently. The difference is more a matter of the way we feel about what happened — what it says about us.
New England was in the middle of a July heat wave, and we were driving from a funeral in Massachusetts back to summer camp in Maine, where I ran a music program and fifteen-year-old Darius was a camper. Twelve years had passed since the accident that had taken the lives of my wife and older son, and Darius and I were finally in a good place. But funerals could still be triggering, and even though my grandfather had made it past a hundred, we’d still been unprepared.
The funeral was more stressful than sad. My mother asked me to play a song, so I prepared George Harrison’s “All Things Must Pass.” But I got performance anxiety, messed up the chords, and almost dropped the guitar.
We left quickly, wanting to get back to camp for a play that night. On the highway, I realized too late that the car was out of gas. The Corolla ran out of gas and stopped halfway up the road. We discovered a gas station was a little over a mile away.
I told Darius to sit in the driver’s seat. When I shouted “Now,” he put the car in neutral (空档) and I pushed. Somehow, impossibly, the car rolled up the hill. I hopped into the passenger seat, and we coasted down the other side.
But even after coasting, the car still couldn’t make it to the station. We had to walk the last mile, taking turns carrying the gas can.
That day became a legend for Darius: My dad pushed a car up a hill. I knew it was more luck than strength, but he saw me as a hero.
When I remember now I think mostly of our walk back, the two of us passing the can, Darius smiling and calm. His gift has always been empathy, kindness, and a sense of hope. I don’t know what got that car moving, but I know who kept me moving toward the future.
24. Why does the author mention the funeral at the beginning
A. To show the emotional setting. B. To present the travel schedule.
C. To reveal the family background. D. To highlight the grandfather’s age.
25. Why did the father push the car uphill
A. To move the car safely. B. To avoid missing the play.
C. To test Darius’ driving skills. D. To reach a nearby gas station.
26. What does Darius mainly remember from that day
A. The failure at the funeral. B. His grandfather’s long life.
C His father’s heroic strength. D. Their walk with the gas can.
27. What is the main message of the story
A. Hard work always pays off. B. Family bonds help overcome loss.
C. Luck is more important than effort. D. Strength matters more than empathy.
C
Dr. Marie-Luce Chevalier, a Belgian/French geologist (地质学家), has been working a as a research professor at the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences in Beijing since 2010.
For the past 14 years, she has been studying active faults (断层) in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and how they move. In 2021, Chevalier was presented with the Chinese Government Friendship Award in appreciation of her contributions to the development of China’s disaster assessment system of earthquake and the promotion of cooperation and exchanges between China and other countries.
Chevalier’s choice of China as a research destination was not made by chance. Her research has primarily focused on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. She had also collaborated (合作) with Chinese scientists from the beginning of her master’s program. “When they asked if I wanted to join their team after my post-doctorate, I gladly accepted and have no regrets. My fourteen years in China have provided me with a constant source of fresh personal and professional experiences,” she said, adding that her mother’s interest in Chinese culture contributed to her decision to work in the country.
Chevalier will continue to research active faults in and around Xizang actively and contribute to our understanding of how past climate developed to work towards predicting future climate change, another topic near and dear to her heart. She will accomplish this by conducting field research, sharing her findings with scientific community, teaching students who will become tomorrow’s scientists, and raising awareness among local populations about the risks they may face in their lifetime.
Chevalier’s mother went to Xizang once realising her lifelong dreams. Chevalier keeps raising her daughter in this safe and highly international environment, Beijing. When people ask her daughter where she is from at four years old, she proudly answers, “China!” Chevalier wants to learn more about the Chinese language and culture, continue to enjoy the happiness of the Chinese people, and look forward to seeing what China achieves next!
28. What achievement did Chevalier get
A. She established the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences
B. She launched the research on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.
C. She won the Chinese Government Friendship Award.
D. She developed earthquake prediction system for China.
29 What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. When Chevalier began her master’s program.
B. What Chevalier experienced in China.
C. How Chinese culture has affected Chevalier.
D. Why Chevalier bases her research in China.
30. Which of the following best describes Chevalier
A. Professional and committed. B. Sympathetic and open minded.
C. Humble and reserved. D. Innovative and self-disciplined.
31. Why does Chevalier mention her daughter in the text
A. To highlight China’s secure environment.
B. To prove her close family connections.
C. To emphasise her bond with China.
D. To advocate Chinese learning
D
Brightly colored songbirds called tanagers (唐纳雀) are so eye-catching because they have a hidden layer (层) of black or white beneath their bright feathers (羽毛). Painters often prepare paper with a layer of white to enhance the colors they will eventually layer on. But it seems this is a mechanism that birds were using long before humans picked up paintbrushes.
Rosalyn Price-Waldman at Princeton University and her co-workers have found that when songbirds have bright red or yellow feather, they usually have white layers hidden underneath. When they have blue feather, they have black layers beneath.
To investigate why, they removed 72 feathers from tanager samples in a collection at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. Through the systematic acquisition of photographic data illustrating the feathers against different backgrounds, the team measured how their reflectance or absorption of light changed, finding that the underlayers make the top layers look more colorful.
The red and yellow coloration is created by pigments (色素), which selectively absorb light to make color. This means the extra light from the white below makes them brighter, says Price-Waldman. But blue color comes from tiny structures inside the feathers that reflect light in specific directions, rather than absorbing light to create the color we see. Because of this, the light-absorbing black below makes the blue look brighter. “If you have white underneath them, they look a white-grey color,” says Price-Waldman.
Price-Waldman and her co-workers found that, in some cases, these layers of feathers generate sexual color differences in tanagers. They also found that this color-boosting strategy is seen in many other songbirds.
“While a lot of research has already been done to understand how birds produce such striking colors, there is clearly a lot left to discover,” says Chris Cooney at the University of Sheffield, UK.
32. How did the researchers check how much light the feathers reflected or absorbed
A. By observing feathers in natural habitats.
B. By comparing feathers of different species.
C. By conducting chemical experiments on the feathers.
D. By taking pictures of the feathers on different backgrounds.
33. Why do black underlayers contribute to making blue feathers look brighter
A. They help absorb extra light. B. They contain special pigments.
C. They reflect light in specific ways. D. They increase feather thickness.
34. What can we infer about tanagers from the fifth paragraph
A. Tanagers use the color-boosting strategy best.
B. feather layers help tanagers attract mates easily.
C. Tanagers have more colorful feathers than other songbirds.
D. Male and female tanagers may have different feather colors.
35. What is Chris Cooney’s attitude toward current research on bird coloration
A. He believes the topic has been fully explored.
B. He doubts the value of continuing such research.
C. He feels future studies will reveal more mechanisms.
D. He is satisfied with the current level of understanding.

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。
My father is a practical man. He can’t explain calculus(微积分)，but he can tell you how much pressure a boiler needs. He can’t draw an architect’s plan, but he can tell you if the pipes and wiring will sustain the structure. He put himself through night school to become an engineer, but that was only after he worked a slumber, an electrician, and a mechanic.
One day we walked by a toy store window. Sitting in the comer was the most unusual doll-house I’d ever seen. It was shaped liked an upturned log（原木）. Little oval windows decorated with nice curtains and framed by tiny balconies were cut into it.
“Oh, Daddy,” I said, “isn’t it beautiful Do you think Santa Claus will bring it to me ”
Dad looked at the $100 price tag, silent — that’s a rather big figure in those days. “I think even Santa couldn’t afford this house,” he joked, lifting up his belt as he often does when he’s nervous. “Maybe one day, sweetheart.”
On Christmas morning, I awoke early and raced downstairs. In the dim light, I made out a lot of wrapped boxes under the tree — but none large enough to contain my dollhouse. Dad could see my disappointment He pulled me onto his lap and gently told me how, as a boy, he had wanted a red wagon, but his father couldn’t afford one. He said he made his own from wood and old wheels he found. “I’ll make one for you,” Dad assured me.
And right after Christmas, despite all the unfinished projects at home, he started it. I naively（幼稚地）thought it was an easy toy to make, but every step of the long process was considerably more complex than I had anticipated. Night after night, Dad would come home from his job dead tired, yet he’d always find time to work on the log house. In the dark yellow electric light, Dad was always busy creating my dollhouse.
要求：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I hesitated, wondering if I should help my father.
