Some stories take us far away, while others lead us back home. Here, three young readers share the
books that stayed with them long after the last page was turned. Each offers a glimpse into a different world.
Take a look—— you might just discover your next great read.
● Fablehaven by Brandon Mull
It is about twins who spend the summer at their grandfather's nature reserve. Something about it feels a
little strange—— like there's more going on than meets the eye. They don't understand any of the strange
rules their grandfather gives them. Little do they know that this is a place for magical creatures. Soon they
will learn that the rules are there for a reason. But only once they’ re broken...
Beatrice C., age 16
● Five Go Off to Camp by Enid Blyton
Four children set off on a camping trip. As they explore the wild countryside, they come across an
old,forgotten railway yard. There, a mysterious man called Wooden Leg Sam warns them to stay away. But
curiosity gets the better of the young adventurers, and they decide to explore anyway——— only to find
themselves trapped in a tunnel, where something incredible awaits them.
Matilda W., age 17

his dogs, training them with care, and finally winning a hunting competition. The book tells the

When he was just six years old, Hurum turned his bedroom into a small museum. His shelves became
filled with a growing collection of fossils (化石 ). For Hurum, they were not just rocks, but things that
could tell the history of life on this planet. He imagined them saying,“I am not a rock. I am a fossil. I have
a story to tell.”
Hurum earned a PhD in paleontology (古生物学) in his native Norway. Since then, he has been seeking
fossils all over the world. Much of his work has been carried out in Svalbard, a group of Norwegian islands
north of the Arctic Circle. The“dig season” in the area is very short—— from July to August. During that
time, the temperature is just about warm enough to soften the frozen ground. There is also less wind, and
the“midnight sun”makes it easy for the scientists to have long and productive days. In the hills of this cold
and distant area, Hurum and his team have found the fossils of many sea creatures, which might seem
surprising.
Even a dream job has its challenges, however. The team may find many broken bone pieces spread
across a hillside. But it becomes impossible to recreate the entire animal. Also, each expedition (远征 )
requires a lot of preparation.“We have between 15 and 20 people, tons of equipment—— food,
jackhammers, water,” he explains.“There's a lot of work before you start the cool thing.”
The“cool thing”, for Hurum, is the act of discovery. In 2006, his team made its greatest discovery so
far.After removing about 60 tons of rock by hand, Hurum and his team eventually dug out a huge
fossil.“We knew immediately this was something special,” says Hurum. It was a plesiosaur——a
prehistoric sea monster with teeth the size of cucumbers.
For Hurum, the discovery of this 15-meter-long creature was an amazing moment.“It's like one of
those scratch-off lottery(彩票) tickets every time you dig,” he explains.“Sometimes, you start digging and
you might just find part of a skull. Sometimes, you find a complete skull and backbone together. Then you
know it's a jackpot—— far more than you can expect!”
24. What do we know about Hurum's work
A. His team works in Svalbard all year round.
B. His work requires careful preparation and planning.
C. His work focuses on the discovery of ancient land animals.
D. The“midnight sun” provides scientists with warmer weather to work in.
25. Which of the following can best describe Hurum
A. Patient and responsible. B. Intelligent and generous.
C. Curious and determined. D. Humorous and optimistic.
26. What does the underlined word“jackpot” in the last paragraph mean
A. A big prize. B. A lucky escape. C. A huge creature. D. A hard job.
27. What message does the passage mainly convey
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Gold will shine wherever it is.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. Where there's devotion, there's a destination.
C
Curiosity is a familiar feeling among people. Is curiosity a positive feeling or a negative feeling Is it a
painful reminder of what we don't (yet) know, or an exciting signal to what we might soon discover In
fact,curiosity can be all of these things, and more. It has positive and negative faces: one points towards
what we want,and one points towards what we have not yet got and may never get.
Once we recognize that curiosity has two faces, we can consider what can affect the nature of our
experience in a given case. A paper published in the journal Cognition and Emotion does just this for the
dimension(维度) of time. The researchers ask: Is the experience of curiosity more likely to be positive
when we expect that our curiosity will be satisfied sooner rather than later
To answer this question, the researchers carried out three studies with a total of over 200 participants
from a university or online. In each study, the researchers induced (诱导 ) a state of curiosity by telling
participants that they would later watch a video about“something with different shades of brown”.
Participants were invited to guess what it might be, but they were not told. Half the participants were told
they would watch the video after a short delay(延迟 ) of only one minute, and half were told that there
would first be a 30-minute delay during which they would finish other interesting tasks. At the start of the
delays, everyone expressed how curious they felt about the content of the video, as well as how much they
felt negative feelings, such as discomfort, against positive feelings, such as happiness.
The key finding was that while both groups reported equal levels of curiosity, the curiosity was
accompanied by more negative feelings for those participants facing a long delay. The researchers argue that
the finding sheds light on the two faces of curiosity. When our curiosity will not be satisfied anytime soon,
we focus on not knowing, which is annoying. But when our curiosity is on the verge(边缘 ) of being
satisfied, we focus on almost knowing, which is a more positive experience.
28. What is the function of the questions in paragraph 1
A. To introduce the topic. B. To show the author's attitude.
C. To present supporting evidence. D. To provide background information.
29. What did the research focus on
A. The two sides of curiosity.
B. Delay's effect on task performance.
C. Curiosity differences between people.
D. Factors affecting the experience of curiosity.
30. Why did the researchers divide participants into two groups
A. To collect more research data. B. To test different levels of curiosity.
C. To compare effects of different delays. D. To discover different types of curiosity.
31. What did the study find about curiosity
A. The more we focus on not knowing, the more curious we become.
B. Longer waiting time makes people less curious about the unknown.
C. The experience of curiosity depends on how soon it will be satisfied.
D. Curiosity itself determines whether the experience is positive or negative.
D
Humans cannot possibly survive without a handful of things. Water, undoubtedly, is one of the
most important. Regarding our total dependence on water for survival, have you ever wondered if other
creatures also depend on water so much Let's narrow down the kind of“creatures” to fish. This may sound
a bit strange, but do fish feel thirsty too
This question is interesting because it is about“thirst”. Humans show this in different degrees(it can be
just a little or I-can-wolf-the-whole-bowl-down). Thirst is an altogether different thing when we' re talking
about creatures that live in water for most of their lives. Think of it this way: how would you ever feel
hungry if you lived inside a pizza Similarly, how can fish feel a strong need to drink water when
they are practically surrounded by water all the time
However, it's not as simple as that. Both freshwater and seawater fish show different behaviors when it
comes to actively drinking water. Freshwater fish have blood with a higher concentration(浓度) of salt than
the water they are surrounded by. Therefore, they run a high risk of having their blood diluted (稀释) if they
drink water. This is why they don't actively drink water to keep the balance of salt and water inside their
bodies. Since the salt concentration in the blood of seawater fish is lower than the water they are surrounded
by, they are often threatened by dehydration(脱水), so they actively drink water. Thanks to the impressive
design of their gills(鳃),they can drink saltwater, process it and then remove the extra salt from their bodies.
Actually, thirst, in fish, is more of a simple response that happens without requiring a thoughtful
decision on their part(unlike humans); it just happens. Fish don't necessarily have to feel thirsty in order to
drink water. They don't have that need to drink water after a hard round of exercise, or after walking across
town on a hot, sunny day.One less thing to worry about!
32. What does the underlined word“this” in the second paragraph refer to
A. The feeling of thirst.
B. The question about fish.
C. The need to live inside water.
D. The ability to drink a whole bowl of water.
33. What can be inferred about fish's behaviors
A. Seawater fish drink water to increase the salt level in their blood.
B. Seawater fish drink water to avoid losing water from their bodies.
C. Freshwater fish don't drink water because they are threatened by losing water.
D. Freshwater fish don't drink water because they take in enough water through their skin.
34. Which of the following can best describe thirst in fish
A. A mental need. B. An unusual feeling. C. A natural reaction. D. A thoughtful choice.
35. What is the most suitable title for the text
A. Why Is Water Important B. Do Fish Get Thirsty
C. How Are Fish Different D. How Do Fish Process Saltwater

The secret to happiness lies in being grateful. Before you learn how to practice gratitude, be sure you
understand the concept. 36
Gratitude is the positive feeling of being thankful for someone or something. When you are grateful,
you can experience the positive feelings associated with happiness, passion, excitement and love. 37
Being grateful can help prevent disease, and being thankful can even help you live longer. Being grateful is
a learned skill and one you can get better at with practice. Ready to practice gratitude in your everyday life
38 Putting your thoughts on paper is a powerful way to connect your mind and your body, reinforcing
the positive feelings. Keep a notebook in your purse or desk to take down things you' re grateful for as they
happen. Or write three things you' re grateful for every day in a journal you keep by your bed.
Share your gratitude with others. Even people who said thank-you to a stranger reported a strong
feeling of happiness. 39 Call a parent, write a thank-you note to an old teacher, give a friend a thank-you
gift or simply thank the cashier at the grocery store.
Challenge yourself to be grateful in difficult circumstances(境况). There is no situation, no matter how
difficult, in which you can't find something to be grateful for—— and practicing gratitude can go a long
way toward improving the way you deal with hard things. Look back through old journals of hard times and
make notes about what helped you get through them and what you were grateful for. 40
A. Find the most powerful way.
B. Write down what you' re grateful for.
C. Gratitude comes naturally to everyone.
D. So, what does gratitude mean, exactly
E. You shall start by telling someone how grateful you are.
F. Science has proven that gratitude provides powerful benefits.
G. Use that information to help you find the silver linings in current troubles.

These days I have electric heat, but I still 53 the day when the railroad men helped us out in time of

It is hard to imagine Chiikawa as medicine, but many young people are turning to it as“digital
ibuprofen(布洛芬),” a way 56 (relieve) stress. A recent study shows a growing number of students are
57 stress caused by the burden of schoolwork, changing relationships, and worries about future.
Chiikawa, a term for something small and adorable, comes from a popular anime (动画片 ). Chiikawa
characters help students feel 58 sense of calm. Many also surround themselves with cute toys of other
characters such as LinaBell and Butterbear. These mechanisms( 方 法 ) are quick, cost-effective and
convenient,bringing comfort whenever 59 (need). However, like ibuprofen, they only offer temporary
comfort without 60 (address) the real problem.
It's difficult being a teenager. Think about all the challenges you 61 (struggle) with ever since you' re
born. Everyone experiences stress throughout their lives. What most young people lack is the 62 (wise) to
deal with it. A teacher once told me that every problem is not a roadblock, 63 an opportunity. You learn
from it and become 64 (strong).
Even Chiikawa characters know this. They experience fear in their world, and even cry when facing
fierce 65 (creature), but they always find the courage to move forward.

The morning sun spilled soft gold across the winding roads, painting long shadows that stretched like
fingers pointing toward the horizon. Patrick guided the camper(露营车 ) out of their quiet village while
Evelyne sat beside him, one hand resting on the small carrier(宠物箱 ) in her lap, the other holding her
phone. Through the window, she filmed the vineyards rolling by like green rivers.
“Say hi to everyone,” asked Evelyne, turning the camera toward Patrick. Then she turned the phone
toward the carrier. Inside, Filou——a tiny ball of black and white fur with curious green eyes——
meowed(喵喵叫) softly at every passing bird.
She posted the video later that morning, adding a few simple words:“Road trip: ON.” Within
minutes,comments began to appear. Her followers—— over three thousand of them—— loved these small
glimpses into her life.Among the likes and emojis, one comment caught her attention:“Cats are born curious
explorers!” Evelyne smiled and slipped her phone back into her pocket, never knowing what would happen
next.
Filou was barely a year old, full of energy and curiosity. He pressed his nose against the glass of the car
window, eager to explore the world outside. Each time a tree cast its shadow across the window, he would
tilt (倾斜 ) his head. Each time a bird flew over the sky, he would fix his eyes on it.“He never misses a
thing,” Patrick said, glancing at the rearview mirror.
After hours of driving, they stopped at a rest area. Stepping out of the camper, they smelt the aroma(香
气) of coffee.
“Let's grab a coffee, shall we ” Patrick suggested. Evelyne nodded.
“See you in a minute,” she kissed Filou goodbye on the head and ran to her husband, leaving the
passenger window open a crack to let in fresh air. They walked into the small cafe and enjoyed the peaceful
afternoon.

1.续写词数应为 150左右；

Last week, our school hosted an event“Meet Intangible Cultural Heritage”, which aimed at unveiling
the mystery and conveying the beauty of traditional culture.
A variety of activities were held throughout the week. Students explored exhibitions featuring
traditional arts such as paper-cutting, embroidery, and shadow puppetry. Inspiring lectures were given by
skilled inheritors, who shared stories of lifelong dedication to their crafts. The most popular part was the
hands-on workshops, where participants tried making clay figurines, learning Peking Opera movements, and

One possible version:
When they returned to the camper, the carrier was empty. Its small door hung open. The tiny black
and white face that had been peering out at them just minutes ago was now gone. They exchanged glances
in disbelief.Evelyne called his name anxiously, but only silence answered. They searched the rest area
frantically, looking under cars, calling out into bushes, asking everyone. The afternoon sun beat down,
indifferent to their unease.They continued the search until the sunset, their voices growing tired.
Exhausted and hopeless, they turned toward home. That night, Evelyne posted a video of Filou on
Facebook with the caption:“Filou went missing today.Please help.” Within hours, the post was shared
thousands of times.
The next morning, she received a comment below her post. Someone mentioned that she had spotted a
small black-and-white kitten. Her photo matched Filou perfectly. Without hesitation, the couple contacted
and went on the road again. Upon arrival, they found a woman awaiting on the porch of her house, who
immediately led them to a shed in the backyard. Curling up on an old blanket was Filou, tired but
safe.“There you are! You little furball!”Evelyne knelt down to scoop him into her arms and petted his head
gently. A soft purr began. That night, Evelyne updated the post:“Filou is home. Thank you all.” A simple
post, a thousand shares, and the little explorer found his way home.

M: Nancy, can I have a word with you about your last essay
W: Of course, Mr. Green. Is there something wrong with it
M: Well, I noticed that your essay seems... a bit too perfect. Did you write it yourself
W: Emm... I used ChatGPT, which produced really good ideas.(14)
M: I understand that AI can be helpful and timesaving, but the purpose of writing an essay is to express your
own ideas and develop critical thinking abilities.(15)
W: I see your point, but isn't it okay to use AI as a tool I mean, it's everywhere now.
M: It's fine to use it for information gathering, brainstorming or grammar checking, but your work
should reflect your own thoughts.(16) Learning is about engaging with the material, not just
copying it. Remember,think critically and write in your own words.
W: Thank you, Mr. Green. I' ll do that.

According to a recent report from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the population of African elephants
has shown a significant increase in certain areas over the past decade. This positive change is largely the
result of government's anti-hunting laws and community-based efforts.(17) In countries like Kenya
and Botswana,governments have taken stronger measures to protect elephants from illegal hunting. Besides,
some countries like Gabon, Tanzania and Namibia have used advanced technology, such as GPS to
monitor elephant movements in real time.(18) The advanced technology can save time and cut costs.
Additionally, local communities have been actively involved in protecting these animals, as they
increasingly recognize the importance of elephants. Elephants attract thousands of visitors each year,
generating income and jobs for locals, which encourages communities to participate in conservation
programs.(19) However, despite these successes, challenges still remain. Habitat loss due to human
activities continues to threaten elephant populations.Climate change is also affecting their access to water
and food, leading to more frequent human-elephant conflicts as animals go into villages in search of
resources. Conservationists emphasize that while progress has been made, protecting African elephants is
a long-term process.(20)
