When introducing literature to a new class, I ask them a question:“Why do we study it ”It's not a smooth ride, but we finally get the answer. Through literature, we can visit cultures impossible for us to experience ourselves and understand what it must have been like to live in a particular time and in different parts of the world. But the best bit is that we can do all this while cultivating those oh-so-necessary critical-thinking skills.
In an era when the common aim of education is to prepare students for a rapidly changing world, the role of literature in equipping them for the future has never been more vital. From the linguistic perspective, studying classic literature affords students the opportunity to understand,analyse, and evaluate language quite different from their own. Structures, trends in punctuation and the way we speak have evolved through the ages and being aware of these developments really helps us to understand better language in its current context. If we didn't read and study texts from the past, and only looked to the best seller list, how would we know of this evolution
There are more benefits to the study of literature. Understanding the past does prevent us from repeating the mistakes of our predecessors but, more than that, it helps us appreciate how attitudes have changed over time. This, in turn, promotes a deeper understanding of why we are who we are today.
While we must safeguard the teaching of classic literature, we should also be open to the idea that more contemporary texts have a place in the curriculum too. Any text, if taught well, will engage on some level or another.
A few years ago I received a thank-you card from a student. It read:“Thank you for introducing me to beautiful literature——I have learned so much from it.” And that golden moment is enough to convince me that great literature, from any time, is something that all our young people should be entitled to.
24. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in paragraph 1
A. The answer is far from satisfactory.
B. Students show no interest in the question.
C. Literature study is never easy for students.
D. It takes efforts to find the value of literature.
25. What does the author try to explain by mentioning the best seller list in paragraph 2
A. The aim of education.
B. The evolution of language.
C. The necessity of literature study.
D. The popularity of contemporary works.
26. What is the author's attitude towards including contemporary texts in the curriculum
A. Conservative. B. Approving. C. Neutral. D. Dismissive.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Classic literature deserves a place in today's class
B. Literary education bridges the generation gap
C. Classic reading: A journey of self-discovery
D. Literary education: A much-needed reform
C
In a textile recycling workshop in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province, a production line once requiring 30 workers to sweat for eight hours to process 15 tons of used clothing now operates with only two staff members. Behind this transformation is an automated textile sorting system developed by Databeyond Technology.
This system integrates AI and hyperspectral(高光谱) imaging technology to identify the material and color of waste textiles, precisely identify blend ratios, and automatically sort out components such as cotton and nylon. This technology was named one of the Best Inventions of2025 by Time magazine, making Databeyond Technology the only Chinese hi-tech enterprise honored in the recycling category.
How does the AI-driven sorter work It functions like an intelligent sorter with collaborative“eyes, brains and hands”. The system’ s“sharp eyes” utilize a vision system with multiple sensors. As materials move along a conveyor belt(传送带) at 4 meters per second, the system——combining hyperspectral and laser sensors—— captures the shape, color and material characteristics in real time. Behind these eyes is an ever-evolving“smart brain”, serving as a massive spectral database. The“dexterous hands” rely on a high-speed, precise system. A major challenge was the lightweight nature of materials, which easily shift due to airflow at high speeds. To solve this,the team added a positive pressure system above the belt. The airflow produced by the system acts like an invisible, steady hand that keeps light, thin materials flat and stable.
As textile production relies heavily on resources like cotton, recycling reduces the pressure on raw material extraction. Given that the textile industry is a major consumer of water and energy, recycling significantly reduces carbon emissions, water pollution and landfill volume.Furthermore, because burning textiles generates greenhouse gases and placing them in landfills occupies land, recycling serves to ease environmental pressure at the end-of-life stage. In this process, intelligent sorters serve as a big help.
Currently, Databeyond's overseas market has expanded beyond Japan, Korea and SoutheastAsian countries. The global demand for this kind of intelligent equipment is increasingly growing.In the future, Databeyond will continue to deepen the integration of AI and intelligent sorting,expanding its technology to more recycling scenarios—— such as waste plastics, film and construction waste—— accelerating the intelligent era for the global recycling industry.
28. Which of the following best describes the traditional way to recycle textiles
A. Cost-effective. B. Time-efficient. C. Back-breaking. D. Labor-saving.
29. Why was a positive pressure system added to the sorter
A. To improve the performance of AI.
B. To capture clearer images in real time.
C. To make the conveyor belt move faster.
D. To prevent materials wrinkling or floating.
30. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. Production challenges.
B. Environmental benefits.
C. Technical drawbacks.
D. Operating mechanism.
31. What can we infer about Databeyond from the last paragraph
A. It will focus more on overseas market.
B. It will encourage heavy reliance on AI.
C. It will dominate the global recycling industry.
D. It will apply its technology to more waste types.
D
Discarded litter not only makes our streets and neighborhoods look untidy, but it can also pose a significant risk to wildlife. However, a study published in the journal Animal Behaviour reports that blue tits are lining their nests with cigarette butts, which may protect them from parasitic(寄生的) infections.
In the wild, blue tits, a small European bird, pick fragrant plants and bring them back to their nests because the smells help drive away blood- sucking parasites. In cities, they are doing something different, which is collecting discarded cigarette butts. Scientists from Poland wondered whether it was just an adaptation to the urban jungle or whether these buts acted as a chemical shield(保护).
To find out, they studied 33 blue tit families and divided nests into three groups. The first was the control group, where nests were left natural, but researchers added two unsmoked cigarette filters. In the second group, researchers added two smoked cigarette filters to the nest to mimic what urban birds do. For the third group, the scientists removed the natural nest and replaced it with a lab- cleaned and germ- free nest.
After 13 days, these chicks were given health checks. Their wing lengths were measured,and blood samples were collected to check for signs of illness. The result was improved physiological condition and reduced parasite- related blood loss. When it came to counting the bugs, there were more parasites in the natural control nests and hardly any in the artificial nests.In nests with smoked cigarette filters, the number of blowfly larvae(丽蝇幼虫), which are usually present in nest material and feed on the blood of nestlings, appeared lower, suggesting that nicotine in the buts could be acting as an pesticide.“Our study indicates that cigarette buts may be used by urban blue tits as an opportunistic adaptive strategy, mimicking the function of fragrant plant materials in parasite control and potentially contributing positively to nestling welfare” the researchers commented. While this is good news, the team highlights a concern. Buts also contain toxic chemical, and it’s unknown whether they could affect birds’ health later in life.
32. Why did the scientists from Poland do the research
A. To improve blue tits’ habitats in cities.
B. To warn the public of the harm of cigarette butts.
C. To determine the role of cigarette butts in blue tits’ nests.
D. To study how to protect blue tits from parasitic infections.
33. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 mean
A. Imitate. B. Prohibit. C. Destroy. D. Stimulate.
34. What can be learned about nicotine in cigarette butts from the study
A. It affects blue tits’ wing length.
B. It does harm to the health of blue tits.
C. It helps reduce parasites in blue tits’ nests.
D. It changes the living habits of blowfly larvae.
35. What may the follow-up study focus on
A. Alternatives to fragrant plants.
B. Toxic components in cigarette butts.
C. More habitable nests for urban blue tits.
D. Long-term effects of cigarette butts on blue tits.

It's common for us to feel worn out nowadays, yet we keep striving to build balance back into our lives. 36 Neuroscientists say spending time near water can provide a range of benefits including reducing anxiety, easing mental fatigue and refreshing us.
37 In that state we become fully immersed in what we' re doing, thus calming the mind.Bodies of water also can produce a glorious sense of awe, and it can decrease stress and help us put things into perspective. Most importantly, water is dynamic. It moves rhythmically, producing a play of light, color and sound that is fascinating, which holds our attention and gives our brains a break. 38
●You likely have some close by, even if it is just a creek alongside the road. Start there.Then branch out to urban water like rivers, canals, fountains on the weekend or a holiday. It has healing power. 39 For example, water in pools, bathtubs, and even sprinklers (喷水装置)keeps your spirits up. If you can't get to actual water, paintings, photographs and videos can still provide similar benefits.
● Try a water sport and get good at it. This brings a flow state —— time and worries fade away as you fully engage. Being proficient can change your brain: it forms faster neural pathways,which makes it easier to enter a state of flow again.
● You can spend time on the water anywhere, anytime in your mind. 40 And when the water you imagine is water you have enjoyed in real life, the positive effect will be even stronger.
A. Maybe water can help.
B. So does domestic water.
C. Computer-generated water scenes boosted participants’ moods.
D. Spending a similar amount of time in water has the same benefits.
E. Here's some advice on how to tap into the healing power of water.
F. Doing water activities like swimming or surfing helps us enter a“flow state”.
G. Visualize the sun sparkling on its surface or waves hitting against the shore.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Before I came to teach at the China University of Political Science and Law, I had never imagined tea carried such profound meaning. In the West, tea is considered 56 (function):something to energize or soothe. In China, even when 57 (share) casually between friends,it carries an unspoken respect. When a student gives me tea from their home province, it is actually a glimpse of who they are, where they' re from, and 58 they stay connected to it.
Once in Beijing, Professor Ding Wenwen took me to a teahouse and the hostess 59 (lead) me through the full ceremony, explaining every step with patience. When it was my turn,I did it 60 (awkward), spilled some and forgot the steps. No one corrected me. The point,I realized, wasn't mastery but 61 (mindful).
Over time, tea has become part of my life and even my go-to gift for friends and family on every trip to China. Sometimes prior 62 boarding the plane home, I received text messages with 63 (request)—— Longjing from Hangzhou, Pu’ er from Yunnan. What began as something I didn’ t understand has become something I am trusted to curate(策展). This brings me to the larger point: it's time for the rest of the world 64 (catch) up with this heritage, 65 has shaped Chinese culture for millennia.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落的开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
David concentrated hard. He had never lost a contest. Being on top counted, and he pushed himself to remain there.
The rocket competition would begin shortly, and he wanted to be sure he hadn't left any detail unchecked. David checked his rocket again. Everything from the smooth fuselage(机身)to perfect aerodynamics(空气动力) told him he had another winner especially when he glanced at the other rockets.
One rocket lifted by a thin boy, however, caught his eye. The painted areas were finely done, and the seal between the stages was practically invisible. It had the look. His critical eye detected that this rocket could beat his.
“Hi,” said a voice out of the blue. David looked up. The thin boy peered down, a nervous smile on his face.“Nice rocket.” the boy said.
“Thanks,” David replied without much emotion.
“Guess you' re king of the hill. By the way, my name's James.” James said,“Good luck.Maybe sometime we could … well, see you after the contest.”
One of the other boys walked past and tapped James on the arm.“You’ re new here,” he said.“Maybe you can beat him.” The boy glanced down at David, but there wasn't any warmth in his face.
The announcer asked for everyone’ s attention and proceeded to explain the competition.David barely listened, his gaze constantly drifting to James’ s rocket. Suddenly his heart did a leap. He had noticed that as James lifted his rocket to place it on the launch pad, one fin(尾翼)had caught against something in the ground, pulling it away from the fuselage—— not enough to break it off, just enough to loosen it. But James hadn’ t noticed.
“James will be our next contestant,” the announcer said. Immediately James lifted his rocket and headed to the launch area.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Without thinking, words flowed from David’ s ' mouth.
Minutes later, James's rocket blasted(喷射) skyward, shooting up flawlessly.

Dear Chris,
I'm writing to explain the ancient Confucian quote you' re curious about.
Rooted in classic Chinese culture, it reveals the core principle of learning fromThe Analects.
It conveys that learning and reflection are inseparable. Simply absorbing knowledge without reflection leaves you confused, while blind thinking without solid learning leads to fruitless risks.
As a senior three student, I deeply value this philosophy. I always reflect on what I' ve learned after class, sort out my mistakes in exams, and connect new knowledge with what I' ve mastered. Only by combining learning with constant reflection can I truly grasp knowledge and make steady progress. I hope you can also put this precious wisdom into practice in your future studies.
Yours,
Li Hua

Without thinking, words flowed from David's mouth.“James, hold on! Your rocket fin is loose!” His urgent voice cut through the noise of the crowd. James froze on the spot, panic flashing across his nervous face as he quickly checked the fin. Without a second thought, David hurried over with his repair kit, knelt down beside James, and carefully glued the loose fin back to the fuselage.“Why ” James whispered, voice thick with emotion. David met his eyes, sunlight warming his shoulders.“Some things,” he said softly,“are more important than winning.”
Minutes later, James's rocket blasted skyward, shooting up flawlessly. It pierced the blue sky like a shining arrow, soaring higher than any other rocket in the competition, with its parachute blooming like a bright flower against the clouds. The crowd erupted into warm cheers. When David's turn came, his rocket also flew steadily but landed just short of James' mark. Second place was announced, yet David's heart felt strangely full. As other competitors gathered around them, laughter and cheers filling the air, David finally understood— this warmth, this connection, was the victory he'd always missed.

W: When you think of women in history who have been true pioneers, the name Jane Addams should come to mind. In the late 1800s, she founded Hull House, an institution called a settlement house, in Chicago, Illinois. HullHouse was established as a resource for immigrants as well as for any other residents of Chicago in need of assistance. Its mission reflected the compassionate spirit of its founder. Jane Addams had visited a similar institution, called Toynbee Hall, while visiting London, England. Throughout her life, Jane Addams worked real hard. She was a skillful fundraiser, and when an economic downturn occurred, she acquired the funds necessary to keep Hull House running. She accomplished this task by writing and lecturing across the country. She continually used the money she earned to improve the lives of others. Fund raising, however, was certainly not her most noteworthy accomplishment. Addams was also a leader in the movement to secure voting rights for women. In 1931 she was honored with one of the most important awards in the world, the Nobel Peace Prize.This recognition was especially significant because Jane Addams was the firstAmerican woman ever to receive this prize. Jane Addams's qualities will live on through others who are inspired by her courage.
