Parcel lockers, also called smart lockers or package lockers, are secure, automated storage units in centralized locations. They are revolutionizing how goods can be delivered and received. People can pick up a package from a locker at a time that suits them, in a convenient location near their residence or workplace.
Yet for all their advantages, parcel lockers are still far from being widely adopted by online shoppers. Many consumers still opt to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don't know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it.
Even though locker usage is still low, companies and government agencies hope more shoppers will try it as they learn about the benefits. Using parcel lockers can help reduce traffic from delivery vehicles and lower our carbon footprint, which is better for the Earth. So, why not give easyLocker a try

For most of my life, I treated taste as fixed. There were things I liked and things I didn’t, and that was that.
Sticking to that belief had left me in a bit of a standstill. I stopped making time for new hobbies or trying anything new. Salsa lessons No, thanks. Interactive theatre Not for me. But my automatic “no” to anything that “wasn’t my thing” only kept me trapped in the same routine of work, sleep, eating, and that left me feeling listless and a little empty.
So, in an effort to break the boredom, I began to question whether my taste was fixed at all, or whether it might be something I could train. I had read that children need 8 to 15 tries to accept a new food. Why shouldn’t the same principle apply to social activities for adults
I started small. When a friend invited me to a book club, I resisted the urge to dismiss it, despite my longstanding dislike of reading due to dyslexia（阅读障碍症）. But I went anyway. I listened to the first book on audio book and, to my surprise, enjoyed the discussion and the people. Now I spend mornings reading. Then came music and performance: jazz clubs, line dancing, contemporary performance—all things I had previously disregarded.
Trying things you thought you wouldn’t enjoy, I found, became oddly addictive. I didn’t love everything straight away, but I stopped saying no before I had even begun. Most recently, I tried out my local library’s chess club. I was easily 30 years younger than everyone else, but that didn’t matter. Honestly, there was nothing quite like being wiped off the board by someone who had been playing since before your parents met. I felt more of a connection with others there than at any organized twenty-something social event I’ve attended.
Putting “try something new” in my diary once a week broke up the work-commute-collapse cycle I had accidentally built my life around. Now I simply count to five, approach the friendliest-looking person with a “hello”, and any initial awkwardness quickly fades. Next week Who knows. Maybe magic lessons. Maybe life drawing. Maybe both.
24. How did the author’s fixed idea affect her
A. It simplified her daily routine. B. It left her more time for work.
C. It flattened her life into dullness. D. It spared her unwanted socializing.
25. Why did the author accept her friend’s invitation to a book club
A. To make a conscious shift in her life. B. To revisit a former interest in reading.
C. To meet her friend’s repeated requests. D. To occupy a blank in her personal calendar.
26. How did the author feel when losing the chess game
A. Totally relieved. B. Slightly puzzled. C. Rather embarrassed. D. Somewhat delighted.
27. What message does the author try to convey
A. Learn to say no. B. Break out of your shell.
C. Look before you leap. D. Let go of the past.
C
Chaotan One, the world’s first commercial power generator that uses supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO ), has begun operations in China. This achievement breaks a century-old tradition of using steam for power generation, marking a major. improvement in efficiency.
The invention of the steam engine was a first step towards the Industrial Revolution that changed the world. Over the years, the engine’s efficiency was further improved through different designs and fuels; however, the medium for doing work remained the same—steam.
Scientists seeking further improvements in power efficiency noticed that a significant portion of energy is wasted generating steam to drive turbines（涡轮机）. Water needs to be boiled first and needs to undergo a phase change to generate steam. Scientists have been looking for a better medium to replace steam.
They found this in sCO . CO exists as a gas at room temperature and can be cooled to form dry ice by reducing pressure and lowering temperature: When temperature is raised to 31℃, and pressure is increased to 7.37 MPa, CO enters its supercritical state, where it exhibits properties of both a liquid and a gas. In applications such as moving a turbine, this is extremely useful since the gas-like state offers less resistance while the liquid-like state provides greater push power.
The power generation process works like this: The CO is first pressurized into a supercritical state. Then the sCO passes through a heat exchanger, absorbing heat from an external heat source, and its temperature rises to 400—600℃ with a substantial increase in internal energy. After that, it enters a turbine and expands rapidly, driving it to move at a high speed and transforming thermal（热的）energy into mechanical energy, which is then further turned into electrical energy for output. The CO remains in a supercritical state throughout the entire process, with no phase change loss.
The success of the Chaotan One will likely start a new era in power generation, using CO as a medium and bypassing the need to transform water into steam.
28. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2
A. Highlight the value of steam. B. Applaud the past contributions.
C. Outline the Industrial Revolution. D. State the background of a new discovery.
29. What is the biggest problem with steam power generation
A. Energy-intensive. B. Labor-demanding.
C. Noise-producing. D. Money-consuming.
30. What plays a key role in the high efficiency of Chaotan One
A. The durability of turbines. B. The quick commercialization of generators.
C. The easy availability of CO . D. The continuity of CO ’s supercritical state.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Unpredictable Changes of CO B. Polarized Views on Chaotan One
C. A Pioneering sCO Power Generator D. A Breakthrough in Steam Engine
D
We’ve all seen this happen in a science-fiction movie: The super heroes jump into a shaky spaceship and escape the bad guys by flying through the asteroid（小行星）belt, where huge rocks fall and spin so close that the crew has to duck and dive to avoid being broken into pieces. It’s exciting, but it’s wrong: In our solar system, the odds are pretty good that you could stand on the surface of an asteroid and not even be able to see another!
Yet they do interact if given enough time. Even in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, crashes are ineluctable. And when two space rocks go “crash” in the main belt, big impacts blow lots of asteroidal fragments（碎片）out into space.
In many cases, these fragments stay on much the same orbital path as the parent asteroid, although they gradually separate from it because of slight speed differences. After thousands of years, some fragments might be clear across the Sun, but their distance from the Sun and the shape and direction of their orbits remain similar. Such conserved features are collectively called an asteroid’s orbital elements. The groupings sharing orbital elements are identified as “families”, which are named after the largest asteroid in the group.
Studying asteroids by focusing on their families can help us make a good guess about what properties a newly-found one has if it belongs to a better-studied family. Care must be taken, though. Some very large asteroids have differentiated materials in the center and on the surface, so confirming those guesses usually requires taking spectra, the time-consuming process of breaking an object’s incoming light into individual colors to reveal its composition.
It’s more than a mere academic exercise to find this particular branch of an asteroid family tree: Some asteroids are potentially risky, meaning they could crash with Earth some time in the distant future. If we know how they find their way to the inner solar system from the main belt to pose threats in the first place, we can defend our planet from future worrisome asteroids.
32. What is the author’s view on the scene in the sci-fi movie
A. It goes against the established facts.
B. It overstates the super heroes’ role.
C. It downplays the special visual effects.
D. It fuels people’s interest in the asteroid.
33. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ineluctable” in paragraph 2
A. Unavoidable. B. Uncommon. C. Incredible. D. Invisible.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The definition of orbital elements. B. The formation of asteroid families.
C. The naming rule of asteroid groups. D. The moving pattern of asteroid fragments.
35. What can be inferred about the study of asteroid family
A. It is a high-risk practice. B. It is built on assumptions.
C. Its value can’t be overstated. D. Its coverage needs to be expanded.
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What’s the first thing you notice when you step into a museum Is it the long-faded colors of ancient artifacts or the sounds of visitors discussing what they see _____36_____ Some locations might even offer an eatable treat inspired by an ancient recipe. Museums allow us to indirectly experience the past by tapping into our primary senses-sight, hearing, touch, taste. _____37_____
“Representations of the past are often scentless（无气味的）, but smell probably played a huge role in many historical realities,” says Barbara Huber, an archaeochemist in Germany. _____38_____ She and her workmates tracked down some molecular（分子的）remains that can let us smell the past. Through trial and error, they created Scent of the Afterlife, a mix of scent that would have accompanied mummification processes in ancient Egypt.
“_____39_____ One of the reasons is that it is incredibly hard to study. The scents and smells in the past were already gone before archaeologists could come and investigate the sites,” says Huber. Luckily, new chemical and biomolecular methods in archaeology have kind of reopened the door to continue to study these things.
“These molecules that we detect can tell us a lot about ancient materials. At the same time, when we reconstruct them like we did with Scent of the Afterlife, we can bring a piece of the past to visitors today. _____40_____” says Huber. “If you enter a room and can somehow smell how it must have smelled in a mummification room in ancient Egypt, you’re experiencing the history in a different way. History isn’t something we only see.”
A. It can also enrich our understanding of smells.
B. However, more often than not, smell is missing.
C. Smell has long been ignored in studying the past.
D. Maybe there’s a copy of a sculpture you can touch.
E. And the exhibit in the museum is not just a displayed object.
F. This “aha moment” changed her attitude towards the research.
G. The obvious absence of scent in the study of history inspired her.

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 came as a shock when the new president of the company where I had worked for 29 years called me to his office one Tuesday morning along with the human resources director (HRD)、He looked at me and announced, “We’re planning a retirement luncheon for you this Friday...”
As the chief editor of the company's travel magazine I had founded some 20 years earlier, I had received nothing but glowing reports on every review. But the truth is, I was 78 years old and highly paid. I suspect the company felt that it was time to bring in a younger person at a lower salary in this period of economic stress.
“Are there no other jobs in the company where I might fit in ” I asked.
“None at your salary,” the HRD assured me.
“I heard you were looking for a writer in travel promotions,” I continued.
“You wouldn’t be interested in that. The pay is one third of your current salary.”
“I'll think about it, ”I said. “I don’t really care about the money. I just enjoy working.”
The new president looked visibly shocked. He exchanged questioning glances with the HRD, then folded up his notebook and stood up.
“Cancel the Friday luncheon,” he said.
Walking out of the office, I seriously considered applying for the travel promotions job, but did I really want to take a low-paid job after so many years at the top, just for the joy of working If not here, maybe somewhere else. But who would hire a 78-year-old editor
Overcome with the anxiety, I suddenly thought of the sentence my mother quoted to me: “Man has infinite（无限的）capabilities, limitless opportunities and ceaseless occupation.” Age played no part in that quotation. I only needed to know that I had infinite intelligence and limitless ideas and the right opportunity would present itself to me.
I wouldn’t wait for that opportunity to come to me.

第一节 One possible version:
Good morning! I feel honored to deliver a speech today. Does listening to music disturb our study Absolutely not! Actually, it can serve as a fantastic study companion.
When I’m wrestling with tough problems or stressful deadlines, soft background music, tends to ease my tension, blocking out random distractions. As for me, the charm of English songs particularly deserves a mention. Whenever I get lost in their catchy tunes and vibrant lyrics, it’s like opening a door to a linguistic and cultural wonderland with natural pronunciation, everyday slang, and fascinating cultural stories. This not only improves my language skills but also gives me a deeper understanding of Western culture.
Personally, music doesn’t merely make studying less of a chore; it transforms studying into a more enjoyable and fruitful experience. Let’s embrace music as our study companion and make learning a truly delightful journey. Thank you for listening!
第二节 One possible version:
I started looking for writing opportunities online. Scrolling through countless job ads, I hunted for any role related to travel writing. Next, I crafted a polished resume, highlighting my 20 years as chiefeditor and glowing reviews that spoke to my expertise. Rather than hiding my age, I embraced it wholeheartedly, claiming it gifted me with unique insights. Filling out applications to various travel-related magazines, I felt a mix of anticipation and nervousness—hoping to stand out yet fearing age would be a barrier. Still, I sent off dozens, refusing to let 78 hold me back, all because my mom’s words kept pushing me forward.
Luckily, Marco Polo, a travel magazine, arranged an interview for me. During the interview, I passionately shared my editorial vision and lifelong dedication to travel writing, which struck a deep chord with the interviewer. “Your insight and depth are exactly what we have been looking for,” the editor noted, clearly valuing perspective over age. Deeply impressed, he offered me the position of travel columnist on the spot. Overjoyed, I accepted, feeling a renewed sense of purpose. Now, at 78, with my enthusiasm reignited, I continued to devote myself to the craft of writing, which echoed my mother’s wisdom: true occupation knows no age.

W: You must have been very sad.
M: Yes. But Dr. Chang encouraged me. After the surgery, he told me immediately that he saw positive signs. Because of his encouragement, I tried my best to recover. Just four months later, I could walk again. And I went on the stage at my high school graduation.
W: So you chose to volunteer there to spread positive attitude to other patients, right
M: Yeah. I wish to help them change their negative outlook on life. What will you do this summer, Maria

W: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the South Coast Gardens, founded in 1932 by the Gilson family. The gardens cover eight acres and have 8,000 varieties of plants. The old family house stores one of the world’s largest collections of rare books. It also holds a collection of 18th-century British, European, and American paintings, rare coins, furniture, and so on.

B篇主题语境：人与自我——生活与学习
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是作者原本认为品味是固定不变的，导致生活陷入单调乏味的循环。后来作者决定改变这一观念，主动尝试各种曾拒绝的活动，发现生活因此变得丰富多彩，并鼓励读者打破固有思维，勇于尝试新事物。
第24题. C 细节理解。解析：根据第一段“Sticking to that belief had left me in a bit of a standstill... feeling listless and a little empty”和第二段“left me trapped in the same routine...that left me feeling listless and a little empty”可知，作者坚持品味固定不变的信念导致生活陷入重复单调，感到无聊和空虚。选项C“It flattened her life into dullness”（使她的生活变得平淡乏味）准确概括了这一影响。故选C。
第25题. A 推理判断。解析：根据第三段“in an effort to break the boredom, I began to question whether my taste was fixed... I started small. When a friend invited me to a book club, I resisted the urge to dismiss it...”可知，作者是为了打破无聊、改变生活状态而开始尝试新事物，接受读书俱乐部邀请是她有意识地改变生活的第一步。选项A“To make a conscious shift in her life”（为了有意识地改变她的生活）符合这一推理。故选A。
第26题. D 观点态度。解析：根据第五段“Honestly, there was nothing quite like......than at any organized twenty-something social event I’ve attended.”可知，虽然输了棋，但作者感到非常特别，与他人建立了更深的联系，语气中透露出欣喜和满足。选项D“Somewhat delighted”（有些高兴）准确表达了这种感受。故选D。

C篇主题语境：人与社会——科技进步与创新
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是中国成功运行了全球首台超临界二氧化碳商业发电机，这一突破性技术有望取代传统的蒸汽发电方式，开启发电新时代。
第28题.D 写作意图/段落作用。解析：第二段首先提到蒸汽机的发明引发了工业革命，随后指出尽管发动机的设计和燃料不断改进，但做功的介质始终是蒸汽。作者这样写是为了引出下文寻找新介质(sCO2)的背景，为介绍这一新发现做铺垫。A项“强调蒸汽的价值”、B项“赞扬过去的贡献”、C项“概述工业革命”均非本段的核心意图。故选D。
第29题.A 细节理解。解析：根据第三段第一、二句“Scientists seeking further improvements in power efficiency noticed that a significant portion of energy is wasted generating steam... Water needs to be boiled first...”可知，科学家发现很大一部分能量在产生蒸汽的过程中被浪费了，因为水需要先被烧开并发生相变。这说明蒸汽发电最大的问题是能耗高（能源密集型）。故选A。
第30题.D 细节理解。解析：根据第四段对超临界二氧化碳特性的描述和第五段最后一句“The CO2 remains in a supercritical state throughout the entire process, with no phase change loss.”可知，CO2在整个过程中始终保持超临界状态，没有相变损失，这是其高效的关键。故选D。
第31题.C 标题归纳。解析：文章开篇即点明“Chaotan One, the world’s first commercial power generator that uses supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2), has begun operations in China.”，随后全文围绕这一开创性的超临界二氧化碳发电机的原理、优势及意义展开说明。C项“A Pioneering sCO2 Power Generator”（一台开创性的超临界二氧化碳发电机）准确概括了文章主旨。故选C。
D篇主题语境：人与自然——宇宙探索
【语篇导读】本文是一篇科普说明文。文章主要讲的是小行星带中的小行星并非像科幻电影中那样密集，但实际上它们之间确实会发生碰撞，产生碎片形成小行星家族，而研究这些家族对于预测小行星特性和保护地球具有重要意义。
第32题. A 观点态度题。解析：根据第一段“It’s exciting, but it’s wrong: In our solar system, the odds are pretty good that you could stand on the surface of an asteroid and not even be able to see another!”可知，作者认为科幻电影中的场景虽然刺激但是错误的，因为在太阳系中，小行星之间的距离很远，你站在一颗小行星上甚至可能看不到另一颗。这说明作者认为电影场景与事实不符。故选A。
第33题. A 词义猜测题。解析：根据第二段“Even in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, crashes are ineluctable.”以及下文“And when two space rocks go ‘crash’ in the main belt, big impacts blow lots of asteroidal fragments out into space.”可知，即使在小行星带，碰撞也会发生，并且会产生大量碎片。结合语境，这里要表达的是碰撞是“不可避免的”。unavoidable意为“不可避免的”，符合语境。故选A。
第34题. B 段落主旨题。解析：第三段主要讲述了小行星碎片如何从母小行星中分离出来，并逐渐形成具有相似轨道要素的群体，这些群体被识别为“家族”。段落最后提到“Such conserved features are collectively called an asteroid’s orbital elements. The groupings sharing orbital elements are identified as ‘families’...”。因此，本段主要讲述的是小行星家族的形成过程。故选B。
第35题. C 推理判断题。解析：根据最后一段“It’s more than a mere academic exercise to find this particular branch of an asteroid family tree: Some asteroids are potentially risky... If we know how they find their way to the inner solar system from the main belt to pose threats in the first place, we can defend our planet from future worrisome asteroids.”可知，研究小行星家族不仅仅是一个学术练习，因为有些小行星具有潜在风险，可能在未来与地球相撞。如果我们了解它们如何从主带进入内太阳系构成威胁，我们就可以保护地球。由此推断，小行星家族的研究对于保护地球具有重要意义，其价值非常重要，无论怎样强调都不为过(can’t be overstated)。故选C。
七选五主题语境：人与社会——历史与文化
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是气味在博物馆体验和历史研究中的重要性，以及科学家如何通过新技术手段重现历史气味，以丰富人们对过去的感知与理解。
第36题.D 上下文衔接（举例与逻辑顺承）。解析：空前文提出问题“当你走进博物馆时，首先注意到的是什么？是文物的颜色还是游客讨论的声音？”这是一个关于博物馆感官体验的引子。空格后提到“有些地方甚至可能提供受古代食谱启发的可食用美食”。这提示我们，空格处的内容应该也是除了颜色和声音之外的另一种博物馆感官体验，且这种体验比“可食用美食”更基础或更常见。D项“也许有一个你可以触摸的雕塑复制品”恰好补充了“触觉”这一感官体验，从视觉、听觉自然过渡到触觉，再引出下文“味觉”（可食用美食），逻辑通顺。故选D。
第37题.B 转折关系与主旨句。解析：前文提到“博物馆通过调动我们的视觉、听觉、触觉、味觉这些基本感官，让我们间接体验过去”。空格后引用了Barbara Huber的话：“对过去的呈现通常是无气味的，但气味可能在许多历史现实中扮演了重要角色。”这里提到了“无气味”和气味的重要性，与前文提到的多种感官形成对比，引出了文章的核心话题——气味。B项“然而，通常情况下，嗅觉是缺失的”恰好起到了承上启下的转折作用，既承接了前文提到的多种感官，又引出了下文关于“气味缺失”及其重要性的讨论。故选B。
第38题.G 因果关系与代词指代。解析：前一句Huber提到“气味可能在许多历史现实中扮演了重要角色”，但“对过去的呈现通常是无气味的”。后一句说她“追踪到了一些能让我们闻到过去的气味的分子残留”。是什么促使她去研究气味？显然是历史研究中气味的缺失激发了她的研究兴趣。G项“历史研究中气味的明显缺失启发了她”中的“this obvious absence of scent”直接对应前文观点，且“inspired her”与后文她具体的研究行动构成因果逻辑。故选G。
第39题.C 主旨句与段落逻辑。解析：该空位于段落开头，通常是该段的主题句。空格后解释了原因：“其中一个原因是它极难研究。气味在考古学家能够来调查遗址之前就已经消失了。”这解释了过去为什么很少研究气味。C项“长期以来，气味在研究过去时一直被忽视”能够概括本段主旨，即气味被忽视的现状及其原因。故选C。
第40题.E 递进关系与逻辑衔接。解析：前文提到通过重建气味（如“来世之香”），“我们可以把过去的一段历史带给今天的游客”。空格后引用了Huber的话，进一步说明如果闻到气味，“你将以一种不同的方式体验历史。历史不仅仅是我们看到的东西”。E项“博物馆里的展品不仅仅是展示的物体”起到了承上启下的作用。承上：它承接了前文“重建气味并将过去带给游客”这一做法，指出这种做法赋予了展品超越展示物的意义；启下：它引出了后文Huber的具体解释——当气味被重建，人们能体验到历史时，展品就不再仅仅是看到的物体，而是多维度的体验。这里的“不仅仅是展示的物体”与后文“历史不仅仅是我们看到的东西”形成了完美的呼应。故选E。
