阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Pine cones (松果) have a vital job: keeping pine tree seeds safe through winter. They close their “scales”(鳞片)
tightly over the seeds to protect them from cold, wind, ice and hungry animals, and open up only when the weather
is warm and dry enough to release seeds, ensuring they spread in good conditions. This simple experiment lets you
observe how temperature and wetness affect pine cone scale movement in your own kitchen.
Objective Observe how temperature affects pine cone size and scale movement.
Materials 3 cones, a marker, a ruler, a bowl of ice water, a foil-covered baking tray, an oven
1. Label pine cones A/B/C, measure and record their initial length and size.
2. Put cone A in ice water for 2 mins, dry it and record its new size.
3. Place cones A and B on the baking tray. Bake at 120℃for 45 mins.
Procedure 4. Take out the tray and let the cones cool completely.
5. Measure all three cones again after cooling.
6. Compare the final measurements, noting that cone C functioned as the control group.
7. Analyze the data to explain the size changes and which cone changed the most.
Pine cone scales change shape as plant fibers absorb or release water depending on temperature and wetness.
Cold, wet conditions make the fibers expand, which makes the scales close tightly; warm, dry conditions make the
fibers shrink (萎缩), letting the scales open and release seeds. This experiment demonstrates how pine cones adapt
to their environment to protect and spread seeds — a brilliant example of nature’s engineering.
21. What does the experiment aim to find out
A. Animals’ effect on pine cone growth.
B. Impact of temperature on pine cones.
C. Different ways to keep proper wetness.
D. Methods to store pine tree seeds in winter.
22. Why is cone C used in the experiment
A. To serve as a comparison. B. To record the original size.
C. To test the role of baking. D. To examine icy water’s function.
23. Where is this text most probably taken from
A. A DIY craft website. B. An outdoor nature handbook.
C. A kids’ science magazine. D. A professional research paper.

At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s
western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet
as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance.
Around that period, I was working with Jack, a 30-year-old client who intended to quit his job and explore the
world. Our weekly talks acted like a mirror, pushing me to face my own fears of being laughed at, criticized by
others, and abandoning the comfortable life I had been used to.
According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50
plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. A strong sense of independence and a “seize the
moment” attitude are inspiring older travelers to see the world in their own way.
The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the
payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite
normal. As people age, steady routines bring a sense of security, yet many people limit themselves to the comfort
zone long after it stops benefiting them.
Fortunately, I had my family’s full support. My husband and children all encouraged me to follow my heart.
Their warmth left me wondering why I had hesitated for so many years.
Research shows that facing fears helps produce dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical. As I often tell my
clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.” Now prepared to board my flight, I firmly believe
fortune favors the brave. It is better to live bravely than to let dreams die without trying.
24. Why did the author decide to travel solo at 60
A. She was inspired by Jack’s plan.
B. She was motivated by a travel survey.
C. She finally responded to her inner call.
D. She attempted to abandon responsibilities.
25. What is the purpose of mentioning the travel survey
A. To show that travel appeals to all.
B. To prove her choice is widely shared.
C. To stress we should seize the moment.
D. To indicate seniors value independence.
26. What can be known about the author from paragraph 4
A. She doubted her comfort zone.
B. She silently prayed to miss the trip.
C. She worried about breaking routines.
D. She was torn between joy and worry.
27. What message does the author want to convey
A. Overcome fears to avoid regret. B. Appreciate support from family.
C. Follow your dreams despite age. D. Prioritize security over adventure.
C
The earth has officially passed its first climate tipping point — a point where many small changes lead to a
sudden big shift in the climate system, just like the last straw that breaks a camel’s back.
Rising ocean temperatures have pushed warm water corals worldwide beyond their tolerance limits. Corals are
now dying at a record rate, threatening not only the reefs but also the livelihoods of about one billion people who
depend on the ocean. Scientists reached this conclusion in the Global Tipping Points Report 2025, led by the
University of Exeter and involving more than 160 researchers from 23 countries.
Worse still, this is just the beginning. The world has already suffered hundreds of extreme weather events in
recent years, and more tipping points are approaching rapidly. If the Earth continues to warm, the Amazon
rainforest may die back, ice sheets could melt quickly, and a key ocean-current system might break down. Of these
threats, the Amazon is a major concern. Deforestation there, combined with rising temperatures, has greatly
increased the risk of reaching more tipping points soon. Without immediate action, these crises will only worsen,
affecting every corner of the globe.
Still, there may be a silver lining. Steve Smith, a geographer at the University of Exeter, notes: “Since 2023,
we’ve witnessed encouraging developments in the global adoption of clean technologies.” Electric vehicles and
solar-cell tech are among them, and battery prices have dropped.
The report stresses that governments need a complete reform in their climate policies. Immediate action is
required to cut harmful emissions, remove carbon dioxide, and protect forests. Delaying will only lead to more
serious climate damage. Everyone should act now before it is too late, whether by choosing low-carbon products or
spreading the message of climate protection.
28. How does the author explain “tipping point” in paragraph 1
A. By listing a fact. B. By stating an argument.
C. By raising a question. D. By making a definition.
29. What can be inferred about the Amazon rainforest in paragraph 3
A. It has already died back completely.
B. It may face potential ecological collapse.
C. It has been saved from the tipping point.
D. It is threatened by ineffective local action.
30. What does the underlined phrase “a silver lining” mean in paragraph 4
A. An amazing sight. B. A hidden concern. C. A promising sign. D. A natural wonder.
31. What is this text mainly about
A. Steps to protect endangered ecosystems.
B. Climate crises and urgent action needed.
C. Recent progress in clean energy technologies.
D. The Amazon’s role in causing climate disasters.
D
As the world’s appetite for electronic devices grows, e-waste is raising alarms. A 2024 UN report reveals 62
million tons of e-waste was generated in 2022, most going to landfills. This harms the environment with poisonous
substances, and causes a $62 billion yearly economic loss, as valuable rare earth elements are thrown away.
With e-waste rising five times faster than recycling rates, new solutions are urgently needed. Aquafade could
be one — a water-soluble (溶水) plastic that breaks down completely in about six hours when placed in water. It
could cover electronics and break down when the device is unwanted, making it easier to recover valuable parts.
The inspiration came from an unlikely source: dishwasher pods (凝 珠 ). One night, inventor Samuel
Wangsaputra noticed the water-soluble film on a pod. Curious, he put one in water and watched it disappear. “I
thought, this must be some form of polymer. But where does it go ” he recalled. This led him to explore PVOH, a
material used in glue sticks and dishwasher pods. It is safe for food, biodegradable, and could make electronics
easier to recycle at home. He teamed up with two material scientists at Imperial College London, to find out more.
The challenge was creating a plastic both water-soluble and waterproof. The team developed a coating that
protects devices from liquid — but once a screw (螺丝) is removed and the device is placed in water, the cover
breaks down within hours, leaving only milky water and valuable electronic parts.
However, experts urge caution. Peter Edwards of Oxford University questions whether the broken-down
plastic might become microplastics. Michael Shaver of Manchester University adds, “The hard part is in the
details-electronics have high requirements. They need to meet high standards for safety, fire resistance, and
durability. “These technical difficulties may prove more challenging than expected.
Despite the challenges, the Aquafade team dreams of turning today’s e-waste crisis into tomorrow’s clean
cycle.
32. What can best describe Samuel Wangsaputra according to paragraph 3
A. Creative and determined. B. Honest and brave. C. Curious and questioning. D. Confident and intelligent.
33. What is a disadvantage of Aquafade
A. Its durability is unsatisfactory.
B. Its waterproof feature may fail.
C. It takes too long to break down.
D. It may lead to microplastic pollution.
34. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of Aquafade
A. Highly skeptical. B. Cautiously hopeful. C. Fully supportive. D. Completely neutral.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A New Invention to Solve E-waste Crisis
B. The Harm of E-waste to the Environment
C. A Tip to Recycle Electronic Devices Easily
D. The Challenge of Developing New Plastics

A classic song says, “Everybody needs good neighbours. “ But in 2026, do we still need them Or have we for
gotten how to be friendly with those around us 36 But these days, many live next door for years without learni
ng their names. Is neighbourliness disappearing
Studies show we have less contact with neighbours than before. One survey found that 76% of us believe peopl
e were closer to neighbours 20 years ago than today. 37
There are reasons behind this fact. People today move homes more often for work or family needs, making lon
g-term connections harder. In smaller communities, people attend the same schools or shops, so they get to know e
ach other easily. But in cities with larger populations, these chance meetings happen less often. 38 Long office
hours or irregular remote work means neighbours may not see each other. At the same time, many of us care more
about privacy. Often, our only interactions are arguments about noise or shared areas.
39 A global study found that knowing just six neighbours can reduce loneliness and help people feel safer.
For older people or those in poor health, informal acts of support from neighbors can be life-changing. Age UK has
highlighted how regular neighbourly contact can help older residents stay independent for longer, while reducing s
ocial isolation.
Ultimately, there’s no hard and fast rulebook to being a good neighbour. 40 But at the very least, making su
re to smile and offer a kind word can go much further than you might think.
A. Our working patterns also play a part.
B. However, having good neighbours still matters.
C. Most people spend more time socializing than working.
D. What feels caring to one may feel unwelcome to another.
E. Once, our front doors remained unlocked for friendly faces.
F. It also found that one in five have never spoken to neighbours.
G. The survey also noted urban residents interact less with neighbours.

Chinese fashion designers take off from European runways
Chinese fashion designers are making their mark on the global stage. At London Fashion Week and Paris
Fashion Week, their presence continues to grow — proof of China’s increasing influence in 56 fashion world.
Take Mithridate as an example. Launched in London in 2018 but now based in Guangzhou, its designs 57
(show) at the London Fashion Week for eight seasons. Its traditional elements, especially embroidery (刺绣), are a
hot topic. Most importantly, its moving back to China enables it 58 (work) closely with local artisans and
understand what young Chinese consumers 59 (true) want.
This choice reflects a even 60 (broad) trend: Chinese designers recognize the need to stay connected to
their homeland. Paris Fashion Week also featured Chinese designers 61 (add) traditional elements to their
works, proving Chinese culture’s global appeal when 62 (integrate) with modern design.
These fashion weeks also highlighted the 63 (diverse) of Chinese culture. Shanghai-based Qin Xu, backed
by her close ties with local artisans, presented Hami Uygur embroidery in Paris. Younger Chinese consumers are
driving the trend. They seek experiences rooted in tradition and mixed 64 a modern look.
It is clear that traditional elements combined with modern design enjoy great popularity. Designers 65 stay
rooted in China will lead this cultural export, while others may be at a disadvantage.

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。
When Jo Roop heard a loud, deep noise from the hillside above, a sickening feeling flooded her stomach.
Rocks rushed down the mountain like a violent flood. The terrifying sound came from the very spot where her
husband, Kel Morris, had stood just a minute earlier.
The 61-year-old couple were hiking along Godwin Creek in Seward, Alaska. They loved nature and often
explored the mountains together. That day, they were searching for a safe place to cross. The area was quiet and
beautiful, but also filled with loose rocks and steep (陡峭的) hillsides.
They decided to separate briefly to find a better crossing. Morris moved closer to the steep rock face, while
Roop walked a short distance downstream. Earlier, she had noticed how unstable the rocks were. As she turned
back to rejoin her husband, the landslide suddenly occurred about ten yards behind her.
“Kel! Kel!” she screamed. But no reply came — the roaring water and crashing rocks drowned out her voice.
Roop’s heart sank. She feared he was gone.
Then she spotted him. He lay by the stream, half-buried under rocks and mud. Only his head and shoulders
were visible. A massive, half-moon-shaped rock pressed heavily on his body. He was conscious but trapped. His
left leg was bent at an unnatural angle.
The rock weighed about 700 pounds. Shocked but still calm, Roop tried with all her strength to lift it, but it
didn’t move. Morris pushed up from below with his arms while Roop pulled from the side. Together, they managed
to move it just slightly — but that was all.
Worse still, there was no phone signal. Roop couldn’t call for help immediately. She feared that if the rock
shifted the wrong way, it might crush (压) him completely.
In the freezing water, Morris trembled violently. “Go and get help,” he said weakly, handing her his phone.
“Now you have two phones. Keep going until you get a signal.”
Roop didn’t want to leave him alone in such danger, but she had no choice.

Hi, Jack,
I completely understand your feelings. Climate change seems so big that we teenagers may feel helpless. But
actually, every small action we take matters and makes a real difference.
In China, many students take part in green activities. For example, we recycle waste paper and reuse old things
in creative ways, like turning plastic bottles into pencil holders, which helps save energy and reduce waste in our
daily life.
Let’s work together as young people worldwide. Starting with small daily things, we can surely do our part to
protect our common home.

She ran as fast as possible, her heart pounding with fear and determination. Holding the two phones tightly, she
glanced back now and then, worrying about Morris being trapped in the freezing water. The rough, stony path
made her run unsteadily, and her legs ached badly, but she dared not stop. After twenty minutes, she finally got a
weak signal. Without hesitation, she quickly dialed 911, crying and explaining the situation clearly, including their
exact location and Morris’s dangerous condition. As soon as she hung up, she ran back to stay with him, not
wanting him to be alone in danger any longer.
The distant sound of a helicopter cut through the silence an hour later. Roop jumped for joy, waving wildly and
shouting to attract their attention. The helicopter landed nearby, and rescuers rushed out with tools, moving quickly
but carefully. They followed Roop to the stream, checked Morris first, and then worked together to move the rock
and pull him out gently. Pale from cold and pain, Morris was weak but conscious, smiling weakly at Roop. Tears of
relief rolled down their cheeks, and he was soon flown to the hospital. This experience made them realize that love,
calmness, and courage could pull people through any difficulty.

W: I’ve just read about Chinese tea culture. I’m so fascinated by its long history. Do you know anything about it
M: A bit. It’s said that Chinese tea culture can be divided into several categories—green tea, black tea, oolong tea
and white tea.
W: Exactly. Tea’s been around in China for thousands of years. It started as a kind of medicine, and then became a
daily drink.
M: Wow, amazing! So how did it get so popular
W: During the Tang Dynasty, a scholar named Lu Yu wrote The Classic of Tea, which systematically introduced
tea production, making technology and the whole culture. That book really spread tea culture across China and
beyond.
M: Such a rich history! And how’s tea usually served
W: Traditionally, offering tea to guests is a sign of respect. Plus, people just drink it to relax and catch up with
friends.

M: Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to share my ideas on traditional Chinese culture and artificial
intelligence.
AI offers powerful tools for preservation. It can scan ancient crafts, record endangered folk songs, and restore
artworks with great precision. It also makes our heritage more accessible. Through virtual guides and interactive
apps, young people can now experience traditional culture in daily life.
However, we must also be aware of AI’s limitations. No matter how smart technology becomes, it cannot
replace the human touch. The warmth of a craftsman’s hands, the story behind each piece, and the passion passed
down through generations—these are simply irreplaceable. True preservation of culture is not just about keeping
the physical forms, but also about safeguarding the spirit and values within them.
So, what’s the right path forward We should use AI to develop our culture, not weaken its true value. By
staying true to our cultural roots while welcoming innovation, we can ensure that future generations will still feel
the charm of traditional culture, even in an increasingly digital world.
