Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
The Gettysburg National Military Park is in the small town of Gettysburg in the eastern state of Pennsylvania.
The Battle of Gettysburg: Background and Overview
Much of the area around Gettysburg still looks like it did in the 1860s, during the American Civil War. The town is in the middle of good farmland. Roads pass through Gettysburg leading to Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and other eastern cities. It is hard to believe two huge armies fought there.
One was the US Army of the Potomac, commanded by General George Meade. The other was the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia by General Robert E. Lee.
The battle of Gettysburg began on July 1, 1863. 170,000 soldiers fought for three days. When it ended on July 3, over 50,000 soldiers were dead, wounded or missing.
Gettysburg Civil War Museum
Many visitors start their visit to Gettysburg at the Gettysburg Museum of the Civil War. It has a large collection of Civil War objects from soldiers’ private notebooks to maps of the battlefield.
The museum also houses the Gettysburg cyclorama painting. It shows the artist’s vision of the final major attack on July 3, 1863. Over time, it has come to be called Pickett’s Charge. George Pickett was one of several Confederate commanders ordered to make the charge. The charge failed. Southern forces would never again reach so far north.
Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address
Soon after the battle, people began to visit Gettysburg to understand what happened, one of whom, on November 19, 1863, was President Abraham Lincoln, invited to help dedicate a burial ground for Union soldiers killed in the battle. Lincoln spoke for just two minutes. But his speech, known as “The Gettysburg Address”, is one of the most famous pieces of American oratory.
21. What do we know about Gettysburg
A. It is a small town with limited transportation.
B. It has completely lost its original appearance.
C. The farmland around it is poor and dry.
D. The battle of Gettysburg was decisive and bloody.
22. Why did Lincoln visit Gettysburg on November 19, 1863
A. To deliver a peace speech.
B. To appreciate a painting about the Civil War.
C. To attend the museum opening ceremony.
D. To participate in the tomb completion event.
23. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A travel brochure. B. A geography textbook.
C. A history paper. D. An education magazine.
B
Indonesian university student Tyas Sisianindita spends about eight hours a day on her phone, watching videos, chatting with friends and using social media. “I realize I am addicted,” she said, noting she checks her phone countless times from morning until night. She even checks it while in class. “At night, when I can’t sleep, I can use my phone for up to five hours,” she said.
Tyas goes to the University of Indonesia, where a team of students recently developed a device meant to fight phone addiction. The students spent three months creating the device, which can help Internet users like Tyas decrease time they spend looking at their phones. Inventor Irfan Budi Satria led the development team. The device is called “Nettox”, which combines the words “internet” and “detox”. Users wear it on their arm. The device has a sensor that measures hemoglobin (血红蛋白) oxygen levels and changes to the heart rate called HRV.
Studies have found that using a mobile phone for long hours can lower HRV levels. The Nettox device makes a sound when HRV and blood oxygen levels fall, which reminds wearers to stop using their phones. For people between the ages of 18 and 25, the HRV should stay above 60. That informtaion comes from the American Psychological Association. At a recent trial, Tyas’s HRV reading was 44.
Internet addiction is a growing social issue in Indonesia. Irfan Budi Satria’s team is working to improve Nettox’s accuracy. HRV readings can change depending on whether the user is a man or woman, and what their body shape and health conditions are. The team aims to get a patent for their invention with the university in the near future. Irfan says Nettox is for people already trying to change their behaviour. “Our goal is to help people who want to free themselves from Internet addiction,” he said.
24. Why does the author take Tyas Sisianindita as an example
A. To lead in the topic. B. To stress she has a special identity.
C. To show she comes from Malaysia. D. To recommend a new product to her.
25. Which can summarize the working principle of Nettox
A. It stops phone use during classes. B. It measures a decrease in two indicators.
C. It auto-locks phones after set time. D. It tracks phone time and warns via the phone.
26. What conclusion can be drawn about Nettox from the last paragraph
A. It fits all phone users.
B. Its accuracy is perfect now.
C. It aims to help people quit phone addiction.
D. It has many limitations.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To introduce a device. B. To expose a social phenomenon.
C. To explain phone use’s harm to HRV. D. To praise Tyas’s fight with phone addiction.
C
The image of a snake meant fertility and rebirth for some native American groups, as well as people living in ancient Greece and Egypt. It is also important in ancient Mayans, Norse and Chinese cultures.
Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》) notes that in Baltic traditions, running into a snake was considered good luck. And it was bad luck if you killed one. However, in some religious traditions, a serpent tempted Eve — the world’s first woman — to disobey God by eating forbidden fruit. This got her and Adam — the world’s first man — expelled (驱逐) from the Garden of Eden. So, snakes were important in many cultures. Sometimes they represented creation.
At other times, they represented good and evil (邪恶) and sometimes just evil. Now, as you just heard, sometimes we call snakes “serpents”. A serpent sounds bigger, more threatening, and even more important than a snake. You can call a serpent a snake when talking about ancient symbols.
But it does not work well the other way. If you saw a snake moving on the ground, you would not say, “Hey look! A serpent just slithered under that rock!” We often use the word “slither” to describe how a snake moves.
In the English language, snakes have a bad reputation. A person described as a “snake” is a liar. Someone acts like your friend but then does something terrible behind your back. A snake is someone you thought you could trust, but they end up biting you.
People who act like your friend, but who want to hurt you instead, are a hidden danger — just like a snake in the grass. Although snakes have a bad reputation, in nature they really want to avoid human contact. Some snakes live in tall grass, often hidden from people and animals. But if you walk too close, one might bite you. So, in that way, snakes are dangerous. The same can be said of a person who acts like your friend.
28. Which word can accurately describe snakes in ancient symbols
A. Common. B. Small. C. Significant. D. Harmless.
29. What does the underlined word “slither” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Hide. B. Slide. C. Appear. D. Wander.
30. What type of person matches the description of “snake in the grass”
A. A faithful friend. B. A fictional character.
C. A total angry stranger. D. A person with hidden evil intentions.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Good and Evil of Snakes B. Snakes in Culture and Language
C. The Move of Snakes in Nature D. Serpent vs. Snake
D
Amsterdam is testing a “bubble barrier” to help remove plastic from the city’s waterways.
The project is called the Great Bubble Barrier. The system aims to capture waste beneath the surface of the water. The city launched the effort in November. The non-profit group supporting the project hopes it can be used in other places if successful.
Francis Zoet, the technical director of the project, said, “A bubble barrier is basically a tube that we place on the bottom of the river or canal, that has holes in it and we press air through it; that creates a bubble curtain.” The tube lies diagonally (斜对地) across the canal.
The bubbles work with the flow of water in the canal to float the waste and then move it into a collector on the side. They don’t interfere with passing boats. They also don’t cause a major problem for fish or birds.
Amsterdam already has four boats that collect about 42,000 kilogrammes of plastic a year. But the boats can only pick up the waste on the surface. They miss some smaller pieces altogether.
Roy Leysner is with Waternet, part of the local water authority that is paying for the project with the City of Amsterdam. He said, “Every piece of plastic which falls into the water in the canals is eventually flowing out to the North Sea. We want to prevent that.” It is estimated that rivers carry up to 4 million metric tons of plastic into the world’s oceans each year.
Another Dutch group has also launched a system to collect surface-level river waste using floating barriers. Francis Zoet of the Amsterdam project said the two ideas work well together. She said, “We support basically every initiative that is focused on reducing the plastic soup.”
32. How does the bubble barrier differ from traditional waste-collecting boats
A. It focuses on the removal of large plastics. B. It targets waste beneath the water.
C. It mainly relies on human labour. D. It stops all plastic flowing into the sea.
33. What do the bubbles do by working with water flow
A. Use diagonal tubes to block boat traffic. B. Create a curtain to trap waste by the canal wall.
C. Float waste for traditional boats to collect. D. Guide waste into a collector.
34. Why does the author mention another Dutch group’s floating barrier system
A. To criticize its inefficiency compared to the bubble barrier.
B. To highlight the uniqueness of Amsterdam’s project.
C. To emphasize the collective effort to fight plastic pollution.
D. To explain why the bubble barrier is more innovative.
35. What can be inferred about the bubble barrier project
A. It may have a promising future.
B. It determines the water quality of the canal.
C. It requires funding from international organizations.
D. It has reduced plastic pollution in the North Sea.

When Daniel blew out the candles on his fortieth birthday cake, he stared at the crumpled (皱巴的) notebook in his hand — one he’d bought ten years earlier, still empty except for a single line: “My first novel.” Regret weighed on him like a heavy coat. For over a decade, he’d worked as an accountant in a small office, staring at spreadsheets (电子制表) while his dream of writing collected dust. Every time he thought about picking up a pen, a voice in his head whispered, “It’s too late. You’re not young enough. No one will read your work.” Fear always won, pushing his dream into the back of his closet, next to the old typewriter his grandfather had given him.
One quiet evening in late autumn, Daniel came home from work to an empty house — his wife had taken their daughter to visit her parents. The rain tapped softly against the window, and the living room felt colder than usual. He walked past the TV, which he usually turned on without thinking, and stopped in front of his desk. There, under a pile of bills, was that old typewriter. He pulled it out, wiped the dust off its keys, and then opened his laptop to a blank document. His hands hovered over the keyboard for a minute—nervous, unsure, Finally, he typed three words: “The rain fell...” and kept going.
At first, his writing felt clumsy (笨拙的), like a child learning to ride a bike. Sentences were awkward, and his characters felt flat. He’d delete whole paragraphs, sigh, and start again. But he remembered something his grandfather once said, “Seeds don’t grow overnight — you have to water them every day.” So Daniel made a promise: he’d write for 30 minutes each night, no matter how tired he was. Some nights, he only wrote a few sentences; other nights, words flowed like the rain outside. He wrote about his childhood summers on his grandfather’s farm, about the quiet sadness of missing old friends, and about the courage it took to chase a dream you’d hidden away.
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。

【答案】One possible version:
More communication, fewer conflicts
Communication plays a significant role in our daily life, and many conflicts arise from lack of communication.
Fortunately, effective communication can be achieved with the following methods. First of all, we’d better speak slowly and precisely to make ourselves better understood. Besides, concentrate on what the speaker says and put ourselves in the other’s shoes. Moreover, it is essential to give positive feedback by nodding or showing our empathy.
With a bit of practice and patience, all of us can become better communicators. (84 words)
【答案】One possible version：
One weekend, Daniel saw an ad for a local short story contest. The theme was “New Beginnings”. He hesitated at first, but his wife encouraged him: “You’ve been writing so much — let someone else read it.” He submitted a story about a man who finds an old typewriter and rediscovers his love for writing. A month later, he got an email: his story had won third place. The prize was small — a $100 bookstore gift card—but when he held the certificate in his hand, his hands shook. That night, he sat at his desk and wrote for two hours, his passion burning brighter than ever.
Later that year, another one of his stories won a bigger contest. And a small publisher even emailed him to ask for more works. Soon, his works became increasingly popular among readers and he quickly became one of the few well-known writers. Daniel smiled as he looked at the laptop that was now filled with stories. He realized that “too late” had always been just an excuse — fear wearing a mask. The truth was, it was never too late to start growing the life you wanted. All you had to do was plant the first seed.
