It was July 2023. Tens of thousands of pencils lay on the tables of the Colfax Historical Society Museum in the U.S. state of Iowa. None of them was sharpened. Some were in plastic containers. Others were simply held together with rubber bands (橡皮筋).
All of them belonged to Aaron Bartholmey. The 36-year-old started collecting pencils after his first-grade teacher gifted each student a colored pencil for Christmas. He then started buying interesting pencils at flea markets (旧货市场). In high school, he joined the American Pencil Collectors Society. His collection quickly grew into the thousands.
Some of Bartholmey’s pencils are from World War II. On these pencils, the band around the eraser is made with cardboard or plastic. That’s because metal had to be saved for the war. One of Bartholmey’s favorite pencils is a 1926 gold-and-silver one. It marked the 150th birthday of the United States. “I’ve always enjoyed the stories behind the pencils,” the man said. “What I collect is much more than just the plain pencils themselves.”
Bartholmey has always kept a detailed record of his collection. But that was not enough for him to apply for a Guinness World Record. The organization required a public count.
Ahead of the event, Bartholmey made five trips in his car to deliver about 470 boxes of pencils to the museum. The count began at 8 a.m. on July 1, 2023. Bartholmey watched as two counters from the American Pencil Collectors Society went through one box at a time. The first counter counted and recorded a number before passing it to the second for a recount. By 9 p.m., they still hadn’t finished. They started again the next morning. After another five hours of counting, one of the counters finally held up the last pencil. In all, there were 69,255 pencils.
Bartholmey now holds the record for the largest collection of pencils in the world. But the number is only part of the story. He can never contain (克制)his excitement when he finds another unusual pencil and learns its history.
Choose the best answer.
24. How many pencils does Bartholmey have now
A. About 470. B. About 2,350. C. Nearly 60,000. D. Nearly 70,000.
25. According to the article, how long did it take the counters from the American Pencil Collectors Society to count all the pencils
A. Five hours. B. Thirteen hours. C. Eighteen hours. D. Twenty-four hours.
26. According to the article, all of Bartholmey’s collections ______.
A. are unsharpened B. are over 80 years old
C. lie in a public museum D. are in plastic containers
27. According to the article, Bartholmey enjoys collecting pencils because ______.
A. most pencils are not very expensive
B. pencils come in many different colors
C. each pencil has a different story to tell
D. pencils are commonly used in people’s daily lives
C
The ability to think about what others are thinking, known as “theory of mind”, is a crucial aspect of human interaction and cooperation. Scientists have long been intrigued if animals share this capability. Recent studies suggest that some animals, particularly great apes like chimpanzees and bonobos (倭黑猩猩), might possess this skill.
A notable experiment conducted by researchers at Johns Hopkins University’s Ape Initiative provides convincing evidence. The study involved three male bonobos, who were taught to communicate using signs or symbols. These apes are known for their intelligence and cooperative problem-solving skills.
In the experiment, scientist Luke Townrow sat across from a bonobo while another scientist hid a small snack under one of three inverted (使倒置) cups. The bonobo witnessed the hiding process but Mr Townrow was only able to see the cups half the time. When Mr Townrow couldn’t see where the snack was hidden, he would act confused and ask, “Hmm, where is the grape ” before waiting for 10 seconds.
The results showed that when Mr Townrow lacked knowledge of the snack’s location, the bonobos pointed to the correct cup more quickly and frequently. This behaviour indicates that the bonobos were aware of Mr Townrow’s knowledge state and adapted their responses accordingly.
While the study had limitations—such as the small number of bonobos and the possibility that their upbringing around humans influenced their behaviour—the findings are significant. They suggest that bonobos indeed have a theory of mind, allowing them to consider others’ thoughts and adjust their actions based on what they know others do not.
This discovery enhances our understanding of animal cognition (认知) and social behaviour. It implies that the ability to think about others’ thoughts, once thought to be uniquely human, may be more widespread in the animal kingdom than previously believed. Further research with larger groups and wild bonobos could provide deeper insights into the extent and evolution of this cognitive ability in animals.
28. What does the underlined word "intrigued" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Curious. B. Worried. C. Unconcerned. D. Amazed.
29 What does Paragraph 3 mainly focus on
A. The effect of the experiment. B. The process of the experiment.
C. The purpose of the experiment. D. The principle of the experiment.
30. What is the result of the experiment
A. All animals have cognitive ability.
B. Bonobos can be trained to communicate freely.
C. Bonobos have a theory of mind similar to humans.
D. Scientist Luke Townrow is skilled in confusing bonobos.
31. What may scientists view the experiment as
A. A morally questionable experiment.
B. A definitive conclusion of the study.
C. A time-consuming and cost-effective trial.
D. A starting point for future investigations.
D
Polymetallic nodules (多金属结核) on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt and nickel, which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies. However, a recent study suggests these prized, potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms living there.
Jeffrey Marlow, one of the authors of the study, said researchers planted some watertight (不透水的) structures on the ocean floor, which he described as overturned boxes equipped with instruments designed to measure the properties and composition of living things and their probable usage of oxygen. Researchers measured the oxygen loss over a 48-hour period while the structure was sealed on the seafloor. Typically, a decline in oxygen is an indicator for biological abundance because breathing organisms consume it. Yet, contrary to all expectations, they observed a rise in oxygen levels, a finding that directly challenged conventional understanding.
But not everyone is on the same wavelength as him. Canada’s The Metals Co. stated the study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Nature, which the company labeled as “a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea minerals”. TMC also said the method was wrong, arguing the team’s findings contradicted other work that had been conducted in the Pacific Ocean’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone. “The heightened oxygen levels are in fact incorrect in the data, and we are currently preparing a peer-reviewed paper as a fightback,” said the company.
Bo Barker, a microbiologist at Denmark’s Aarhus University, said the study invited more questions than it did answers. He described it as “a novel but very confusing process for which the mechanism is still not clear”.
For years, companies such as Canada’s TMC have been battling to persuade the international governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean’s CCZ. The company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal, but also fades next to the destruction of rain forests and human communities caused by land-based mining.
32. What was the most unexpected finding of Jeffrey Marlow’s study
A. Oxygen levels climbed in the box. B. Nodules contained cobalt and nickel.
C. The underwater structures were sealed. D. Microorganisms consumed oxygen fast.
33. Why does The Metals Co. (TMC) mention that the study was rejected by four scientific publications
A. To praise the researchers’ resolution.
B. To explain the long publication delay.
C. To suggest the study was initially unqualified.
D. To emphasize the fierce competition among journals.
34. What role do the last two paragraphs play in the development of the passage
A. Providing multidimensional context for the ongoing debate.
B. Listing the potential benefits of harvesting polymetallic nodules.
C. Offering a detailed, step-by-step explanation of the new study’s approach.
D. Summarizing the key findings and presenting a final conclusion on the matter.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Deep Rock: a Data Error B. A Tiny Stone: a massive Wave
C. A Rare Metal: a Global Solution D. A Deep-Sea Mine: a Rainforest Rescue

The Christmas Present
When I was a boy of nine in the little town of Doylestown, Pennsylvania, I used to mow the lawn of Mrs Long, an elderly lady who lived across from the Presbyterian Church. She paid me very little for the chore, for she had not much money. But she did promise me, “When Christmas comes, I shall have a present for you.” I spent much time wondering what it would be. The boys I played with had baseball gloves and bicycles and ice skates, and I was so eager to acquire any one of these that I convinced myself that Mrs Long intended choosing from among them.
“It would hardly be a baseball glove,” I reasoned with myself. “A woman like Mrs Long wouldn t know much about baseball.” Since she was a weak and thin person, I also ruled out the bicycle, for how could she handle such a vehicle
On my last Saturday at work, Mrs Long said, “Now remember, because you’ve been a good boy all summer, at Christmas I’ll have a present waiting. You come to the door and collect it.” These words clinched it. Since she was going to have the present in her house, and since she herself would be handling it, unquestionably she was giving me a pair of ice skates.
I became so convinced of this that I could imagine myself upon the skates. As the cold days of November arrived and ice began to form on the ponds, I began to try my luck on the ice that would be sustaining me and my skates through the winter.
“Get away from that ice!” a man shouted. “It’s not strong enough yet.” But soon it would be.
As Christmas approached, it was with difficulty that I restrained myself from reporting to Mrs Long and demanding my present. My mother, who taught school, agreed that the first of December was too early for me to do this. “She may not have it wrapped yet,” she argued, and this made sense.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150左右；
(2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
On the 21st of December, a serious cold snap froze all the ponds. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
