When our family was on long car trips, my kids sat forward in their seats, eyes moving quickly across billboards. “I found an A” my daughter shouted, her voice full of excitement. Thus began our alphabet (字母) game — a tradition I loved as a child, now bringing joy to a new generation. What always amazed me was how, once we fixed our attention on a letter, it seemed to show up everywhere: a “B” on a bakery sign, a “C” on a coffee ad. I’d worry we’d never spot a Q or X, but sure enough, they’d appear, making the kids cheer like we’d won a prize.
This little phenomenon hit me harder while I struggled to write a book for Angelico Press. For days, I stared at my screen, the cursor (光标) shining with nothing there, as I fought to find fresh, poetic words for “nature’s beauty.” Every phrase felt boring — too common, too forced. I’d delete paragraphs when I felt upset, wondering if I’d ever catch that quiet magic of the outdoors, the kind that makes you feel amazed. It wasn’t for lack of trying; I read poetry collections, took dawn walks, but inspiration just wouldn’t stick.
Then one afternoon, as the kids talked excitedly from the back seat about spotting a “Y” on a farm sign, it clicked. I’d been waiting for inspiration to find me, not going out to find it. What if I approached writing like their game I started hunting for metaphors (隐喻) in daily life — and soon, they were everywhere: a garden rose became “sunlight wrapped in silk,” rain on my window “the sky’s soft whisper.”
Just as Mentalist Oz Pearlman says, “we find what we seek.” Whether it’s a letter on a billboard, a meaningful image, or even joy in small moments, focus turns the invisible into the visible. It’s a reminder to choose what we look for wisely — because what we notice shapes the world we see.
24. What was the author’s initial concern about the game
A. The children would soon get bored.
B. Some letters might be too hard to find.
C. The children would fight over the letters.
D. They might run out of billboards to search.
25. Why did the author delete paragraphs when writing
A. She lacked writing materials.
B. She wanted to copy poetry styles.
C. She thought her writing was too long.
D. She couldn’t find creative expressions.
26. What made the author get inspiration for writing
A. The poetry collections she read.
B. The way to play the alphabet game.
C. The idea of taking a family car ride.
D. The poetic sentences she created.
27. What can we learn from the author’s experience
A. Treasures lie in distant places.
B. Inspiration comes from reading.
C. Focus helps discover life’s beauty.
D. Success depends on the right moment.
C
Cycling is an extremely healthy sport. This low-impact exercise can strengthen your legs, improve your balance, and boost your overall fitness effectively, making it suitable for people of any age.
Beyond physical benefits, cycling is also remarkably good for the brain. As Healthline points out, riding a bike helps reduce feelings of stress and anxiety by promoting the release of endorphins, the body’s natural mood lifters. And new research reveals even more significant cognitive (认知) advantages.
A study published in the journal JAMA Network Open tracked 479,723 participants over a 13-year follow-up period. Its key findings linked active travel modes of transportation — especially cycling — to better brain health and a significantly lower risk of dementia (痴呆症).
Participants were asked about their daily travel habits excluding work commutes (通勤) and divided into four groups: those using passive transport like buses or trains; regular walkers; people who mixed walking with other methods; and those who rode bikes or combined cycling with other forms of travel. The results showed that regular cyclists had a 19 percent lower risk of dementia and a 22 percent lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease compared to other groups. Additionally, brain imaging of the participants confirmed that cyclists had a larger hippocampus — a brain region crucial for memory and learning — which is a clear indication of healthy cognitive function.
Active travel like cycling is accessible to most people, requiring no specialized equipment beyond a bike, and its benefits for older adults are particularly tremendous. Liangkai Chen, PhD, lead author of the study, notes that promoting cycling as daily transport — even mixed with other modes — could be a practical and low-cost strategy to reduce dementia risk and preserve brain structure.
Chen plans to further research how cycling frequency and duration influence brain health, plus the effects of changing active travel behaviour. This is especially important for seniors, as small lifestyle changes yield great brain health benefits. Clifford Segil, an adult neurologist, adds middle-age lifestyle adjustments to prevent dementia are valuable, as proven neuroprotective methods remain rare.
28. What did the study in JAMA Network Open find about regular cyclists
A. They had a higher risk of dementia.
B. They showed better cognitive function.
C. They owned healthier bodies than others.
D. They depended more on passive transport.
29. What is the focus of Paragraph 4
A. Confirmation of the research.
B. Methods of dividing participants.
C. The process and results of the study.
D. Comparisons between different travel groups.
30. What does the underlined word “tremendous” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Slight. B. Substantial. C. Uncertain. D. Temporary.
31. What can we know from Clifford Segil’s words
A. Seniors should avoid changing their daily habits.
B. Neuroprotective methods are now widely available.
C. Middle-age adjustments may help protect brain health.
D. Lifestyle changes are the only way to prevent dementia.
D
Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are indicating that accurate quake forecasting may be attainable, thereby casting doubt on the conventional wisdom that such an accomplishment is beyond our capabilities. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, created an AI model that, during a test run in China, correctly forecasted approximately 70 percent of earthquakes with a one-week warning and offered reliable assessments of their potential intensity.
The researchers attribute their technique’s effectiveness to its reliance on a straightforward machine leaning framework. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI offered predictions by detecting early indicators of quakes hidden within the planet’s low-frequency rumbles (隆隆声).
The project marks a substantial breakthrough in the exploration of AI for anticipating seismic (地震) events. According to Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior researcher heading the Texas Seismological Network, “Seismic occurrences strike without warning, often in the blink of an eye. Your readiness is all you can influence. Achieving a 70% prediction rate is a considerable achievement that could significantly restrict the impact of earthquakes, reducing both the financial burden and loss of life, and the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
Although the effectiveness of this method in different regions remains uncertain, the researchers believe that their AI model has the potential to enhance prediction accuracy when carried out in regions equipped with dependable seismic monitoring facilities. Their next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, where the University of Texas’s TexNet operates a network of 300 earthquake stations and over six years’ worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes.
Ultimately, the authors aim to combine the system with physics-based models. This approach could be particularly valuable in areas characterized by limited or inadequate data. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
32. How does the AI predict seismic events
A. It identifies data from the satellites.
B. It analyzes background sounds in the Earth.
C. It models data based on earthquake recordings.
D. It monitors changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.
33. What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3
A. The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.
B. The importance of preparing for earthquakes.
C. The significance of developing the AI prediction.
D. The restrictions of AI-based methods in earthquake prediction.
34. What does the subsequent research focus on
A. Conducting tests in different locations.
B. Applying the AI approach to other fields.
C. Building more earthquake stations in Texas.
D. Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy.
35. Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology
A. Stable but outdated. B. Effective but costly.
C. Potential and economical. D. Pioneering and promising.

How Campus Clubs Boost Comprehensive Abilities
Campus clubs are more than extracurricular fun — they’re labs for growth, offering chances to develop skills beyond classrooms. By engaging wisely, students can turn club participation into a journey of self-improvement.
____36____. Avoid random joining; instead, match clubs to what excites you (e.g., photography for visual lovers) or skills you want to build (e.g., debate for critical thinking). Research missions or talk to members first to stay motivated. A shy student might thrive in drama club, while a tech enthusiast could join coding workshops.
Dive into regular activities with responsibility by taking on specific roles. Volunteer as an event planner, note-taker, or social media manager. ____37____. For example, organizing a charity sale requires managing donations, scheduling volunteers, and promotion, all valued by employers.
Initiate cross-club joint projects to broaden horizons. ____38____. A literature club and art club could cohost a “poetry illustration” exhibition, combining creativity and teamwork. Such initiatives expand your network and expose you to diverse perspectives, as seen when an environmental club teamed up with a gardening society to design a rooftop garden.
Practice public speaking through club presentations and leadership. Seize opportunities to share ideas in meetings, introduce guests, or lead discussions. ____39____, like a 5-minute presentation to your subgroup, then gradually take on larger stages.
Regularly reflect on experiences to identify growth. Set aside monthly time to review: “What did I learn Which skills improved ” Note achievements, like resolving team conflicts or mastering new tools. ____40____.
Clubs are mirrors reflecting your potential. With purpose and engagement, they’ll shape you into a more capable, connected individual.
A. Start with small audiences.
B. Propose joint projects with other clubs.
C. Focus only on clubs with the highest popularity.
D. These tasks teach time management and teamwork.
E. Take up more leadership roles to maximize the benefits.
F. This turns random activities into intentional development.
G. Choose clubs agreeing with your interests or growth goals.

Alex sat quietly at the back of his Chinese class, his eyes fixed on the textbook before him. As a shy and often unnoticed student, he felt like a lone wolf, struggling against the complexities of high school life.
Ms. Lau, his Chinese teacher, was a light in his otherwise dark world. Her warm smile and gentle manner made her stand out in the sea of teachers. She was the only one who seemed to understand his reserved nature, always encouraging him to step out of his comfort zone.
One day, after class, Ms. Lau approached Alex with a shine of excitement in her eyes. “Alex, I have an offer for you,” she said, her voice filled with enthusiasm. “I am organizing a cultural exchange program to China, and I believe it would be a great opportunity for you to explore a new world.”
Alex’s heart skipped a beat. The prospect of traveling to a foreign country was both exciting and terrifying. He hesitated, unsure if he had the courage to go on such an adventure. But Ms. Lau’s firm belief in him gave him the push he needed to take a leap of faith.
Under Ms. Lau’s guidance, Alex began preparing for the trip. He became deeply interested in Chinese culture and learned about its long history and traditions. Ms. Lau became his mentor (导师), teaching him not only the language but also invaluable life lessons. She taught him the importance of being confident and not giving up, reminding him that growth only happens outside one’s comfort zone.
The day of departure soon arrived, and Alex found himself on a plane headed for China. He couldn’t help but feel amazed as he stepped off the plane and into a world so different from his own.

【答案】例文
During their time in China, Alex wholeheartedly enjoyed the experience. He visited ancient temples, tasted delicious local food, and communicated with Chinese students with the help of Ms. Lau. He was deeply attracted by the profound Chinese culture and the warmth of the local people. When he struggled to speak Chinese, the Chinese students patiently helped him, which made him more confident. He even joined a traditional paper-cutting class, and his clumsy but sincere works won praise from everyone. Every day was filled with new discoveries and joys, and he gradually got rid of his shyness.
Back in his home country, Alex was a completely changed person. He became active and outgoing, daring to raise his hand in class and make friends with his classmates. He often shared his experience in China with others, spreading Chinese culture. He also kept the lessons Ms. Lau taught him in mind, bravely challenging himself and stepping out of his comfort zone. It was this trip that made him realize that courage and openness can bring more possibilities to life.
