Rick Guidotti put aside his career as a fashion photographer to turn his lens(镜头) to people living with genetic，physical and behavioural differences.
He says what changed his perception(看法) of beauty was a chance encounter with an albino(患白化病的) girl.“I was just tired of people telling me who was beautiful.Every season that face would change but I was always told who was beautiful.As an artist，I don’t see beauty just on covers of magazines.I see it everywhere.So that was my original intention—that opened my eyes a little wider and wider.”
Guidotti has created Positive Exposure，a not-for-profit organization that uses photography and video to transform public perceptions and promote a world where differences are celebrated.Guidotti and Positive Exposure are featured in a new documentary called On Beauty.
One of the women featured in the film is Jayne Waithera.“I never thought I was beautiful because nobody said that to me，but meeting him was my profound moment.I remember that particular day.He took my picture and I felt so good like I felt there’s somebody who，like，really loves me and sees me for who I am and who sees me more than my condition.”
Guidotti is travelling from city to city to promote On Beauty.He says his tour is not about money; it’s about the message.“As I travel from community to community，I’m taking photographs and I’m empowering(授权) individuals with a positive sense of who they are.They’re seeing beauty in their reflection but I’m also empowering their families and they in turn are empowering their communities as well.All is based on the philosophy of change—how you see，how you change.”
24．Why did Guidotti change his career
A．The beauty on covers of magazines is not beautiful.
B．He wanted to create his own company.
C．His comprehension of beauty changed owing to an albino girl.
D．He couldn’t earn enough money from his former career.
25．What can we know about Positive Exposure
A．It welcomes differences in the world.
B．It brings a lot of money for Guidotti.
C．It makes photography more popular.
D．It makes the public more beautiful.
26．What can we learn about Jayne from paragraph 4
A．Jayne’s picture was more beautiful than herself.
B．Jayne was beautiful indeed.
C．Photographs gave Jayne a positive sense of who she was.
D．It was unfair that nobody discovered Jayne’s beauty.
27．What does the author mainly intend to tell us in the last paragraph
A．Communities have a great influence on everyone.
B．We should travel frequently.
C．Your attitude to seeing the world decides your behaviour.
D．We should make contributions to our community.
C
Virtually all living things have some way of getting from here to there.Animals may walk，swim，or fly.Plants and their seeds drift(飘) on wind or water or are carried by animals.Therefore，it is reasonable to expect that，in time，all species might spread to every place on Earth where favorable conditions occur.Indeed，there are some cosmopolitan species.A good example is the housefly，found almost everywhere on Earth.However，such broad distribution(分布) is the rare exception.Just as wire fences prevent cattle from leaving their grassland，biological barriers prevent the spread of many species.
What forms barriers depends on the species and its method of spread.Some are physical barriers，like waters or mountains for the land animals，and strong currents for aquatic(水生) creatures.Some barriers involve competition with other species.Most places that are suitable for the growth of a newcomer，say a dandelion seedling(蒲公英幼苗)，are already occupied by other types of plants that are well adapted to the area.Facing such fierce competition，the chances of survival for the immigrant are slim.
There are also some types of natural pathways through which organisms can overcome barriers.One type is called a corridor.It consists of a single type of habitat that passes through various other types of habitat.North America’s Rocky Mountains is an example.Various types of trees，such as the Engelmann spruce，can be found not only at the northern end of the corridor in Alaska but also at higher altitude along the entire length of this corridor.
Another type of natural pathway is known as a filter route.It consists of a series of habitats that are different from one another but are similar enough to permit organisms to gradually adapt to new conditions as they spread from habitat to habitat.The greatest difference between a corridor and a filter route is that a corridor consists of one type of habitat，while a filter consists of several similar types.
28．What does the underlined word “cosmopolitan” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Worldwide. B．Ordinary.
C．Famous. D．Ancient.
29．How does the author explain biological barriers in paragraph 1
A．By providing examples of them.
B．By describing the forming process of them.
C．By comparing them with a familiar man-made barrier.
D．By explaining how houseflies have been affected by them.
30．What limits the chances of survival for dandelion seedlings
A．The danger of strong winds.
B．The lack of a suitable habitat.
C．Inadaptation to the new areas.
D．Competition with native species.
31．What is the essential difference between a corridor and a filter route
A．The number of habitat categories.
B．The speed to adapt to new conditions.
C．The distance from one end to the other.
D．The species spread through the routes.
D
Have you ever found yourself transported back to a particular moment or place just by hearing a song？It’s not magic—it’s science.To know more about this，researchers at the University of California，San Francisco(UCSF) conducted a study.What they discovered was that music is not just a series of notes on a page but a storyline that our brains create in our minds while listening.
Participants from the study volunteered to have their brains scanned while listening to music.They had epilepsy(癫痫) and were already undergoing brain monitoring as part of their treatment.The researchers played them short musical snippets(片段) called “phrases” with different note patterns.Some phrases were predictable，repeating familiar patterns，while others surprised them with unexpected notes.
To track their brain activity，the researchers used a special technique called “high-density electrocorticography”(ECoG)．This involves placing many tiny electrodes(电极) directly on the head，allowing for precise measurements of electrical activity in different areas.It’s like having many tiny microphones listening to different parts of your brain.By comparing the brain activity with the predictable and unpredictable phrases，the researchers could see which brain regions were more active when people anticipated the next note.
The researchers found that while our brains use similar areas to understand both music and speech，there’s a key difference.Music triggers unique “prediction zones” that speech does not.This means our brains are wired to expect what’s coming next in a song，much more so than in a conversation.
“It’s obvious that exposure to music enriches our social and emotional lives and has potential to treat a broad range of physical problems，such as sleep disorders.To understand why music is able to have all these benefits，we need to answer some fundamental questions about how music works in the brain，” said study lead author Dr.Narayan Sankaran.Long-term studies following individuals over time could provide valuable data on how the brain handles musical expectations and how the processing of musical expectations might change with aging，experience，or cognitive decline.
32．Why did UCSF conduct the study
A．To find a cure for epilepsy using music therapy.
B．To understand how epilepsy affects brain activity.
C．To explore how the brain understands and predicts music flow.
D．To compare brain activities between patients with epilepsy and healthy people.
33．How did the researchers conduct the study
A．By putting electrodes in the head.
B．By tracking brain activity using ECoG.
C．By recognizing different brain regions.
D．By comparing predictable and unpredictable phrases.
34．What does the author assume for future research
A．Examining how the brain processes expectations.
B．Investigating the impact of music on physical health.
C．Analyzing the role of music in social bonding.
D．Studying the effects of music on sleep disorders.
35．What does the text mainly talk about
A．Music engages key areas for emotional impact.
B．Music can stimulate predication areas in the brain.
C．Music is beneficial to physical and mental health.
D．Music has more predictable patterns than speech.

Food waste may result from lifelong habits. 36 Follow these tips to reduce unnecessary food waste in your household and save money along the way.
Plan your meals.When you don’t know clearly what you want to eat，it’s easy to pick up more than you need，especially when items are on offer.Plan your meals for the week in advance to avoid unnecessary food waste. 37
Store your products correctly.A lot of fruit and vegetables spoil before you eat them. 38 For example，potatoes，carrots and other root vegetables last longest if kept in the dark.Fresh fruit and vegetables，like grapes or onions shouldn’t be kept with ethylene-producing products as they make other fresh produce ripen and rot(腐烂) more quickly.You can also find many ways to keep your perishables fresh by using water.
Get creative with leftovers.For those times when planning fails you and you end up with leftover meals in your fridge，instead of throwing them out，think about inventive ways to transform them. 39 Think twice before you toss items like meat bones，which form the perfect basis for stock or a soup throughout the winter.
40 Do you always buy the same things every time you are in the supermarket，yet every week you have things you throw away？Note down the products in the bin time and time again，so that you can avoid buying them (or so much of them) in the future.
A．Track your trash.
B．Sort out the rubbish.
C．Many unknown tips can keep produce fresh.
D．Try to stretch your grocery budget a little bit further.
E．Luckily，it’s easy to learn how to change these habits around.
F．Italians，for example，fry leftover rice and it becomes Arancini.
G．Work out what you plan to eat and how much of each item you’ll need.

I started stuttering(结巴) at 10 when my father died.I lost confidence when speaking，especially in unfamiliar situations.Science seemed a(n) 41 for me as I assumed that research is done alone and requires little interaction with others. 42 ，I soon learned it’s hardly a job for someone afraid to talk.
Throughout the course of my doctoral studies，I practiced every talk I had to 43 over and over until I was sure I would not have to think about the contents when presenting.During group meetings，where my familiar workmates already knew about my 44 ，I learned to speak up.But in a 45 audience，such as a departmental seminar(研讨会)，I kept quiet.If I had question during a talk，I would wait to ask the speaker 46 or just keep it to myself.
This all 47 when I moved to a new institution and was asked to start a seminar series.And suddenly I was inviting potential speakers and planning their 48 .I soon realized I could not just sit back and 49 as before，but I was worried that my stutter might trip me up in front of my fellow workers.Anyway，I managed to push that 50 aside and accept the responsibility.
The first few talks were quite 51 .As I got more practice week after week，I discovered the 52 went far beyond being a good host.

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。
Regardless of the weather or the distance，Paul Wilson would make sure low-income students in his neighborhood arrived at their college classes on time.
A retired engineer,76-year-old Wilson had been offering free rides to college students for the past eight years.Since he first started volunteering his car to the young people，Wilson had covered an astonishing 64,000 miles，and had countless pleasant and often humorous conversations with the students he transported to and from school.The students who he’d driven had gone on to become physicians，teachers and engineers，but what they’d also got out of their time in school was finding a role model and a friend in Wilson.Some students even called him “Grandpa”．
Tina Stern received rides from Wilson for all her four years in college，and the trips meant much more to her than just free transportation.“It’s not just a ride；you’re not just sitting there in awkward silence or with your headphones on，” Stern said.“He asks you questions and actually remembers the answers，so the next time you ride with him，he’ll check on those things.”
Wilson often went beyond to ensure the welfare and safety of the students.If they had problems with registration，Wilson was there to assist them.If they ran out of certain daily necessities，Wilson would drive to the nearest store and purchase what was needed.For many students，riding with Wilson had allowed them to complete their education—but according to Wilson，he benefited just as much from the experience.“I just love driving，and I love these kids，” Wilson said.“It’s such a privilege to be a part of these kids’ lives，getting to know them and hearing their stories.”
One day，Stern came across Wilson and his wife in the hospital，where she knew Wilson was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease(阿尔茨海默病)．
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。
“He isn’t what he used to be，” his wife told Stern.___________________________

W：Having too many days off can affect our study and even our life.And many students’ parents like mine have to go to work. If students get too many days off，they might be at home alone too much.This could make some students’ mental health issues worse.
M：But some students have serious mental health challenges.How can they get help
W： I do think a mental health lecture can play a vital role in students’ daily life and help to protect them from mental illness.
M：That sounds like a good idea.

M：Well，it’s not my fault！What did you do with it when you got it home
W：I just plugged it in and turned it on.
M：Well，it was working fine when you took it...when you left here.
W：Well， I think the least you people can do is to come over and adjust it for me，and make sure the thing’s working all right.
M： Well，I wouldn’t mind doing that.Or you could bring it here and I’ll have a look at it. But you bought a second-hand TV and there’s only a two-day warranty on it.
W： Second-hand？Second-hand？！That thing was supposed to be new！Your salesman told me it was brand new.

Rick Guidotti put aside his career as a fashion photographer to turn his lens(镜头) to people living with genetic，physical and behavioural differences.
He says what changed his perception(看法) of beauty was a chance encounter with an albino(患白化病的) girl.“I was just tired of people telling me who was beautiful.Every season that face would change but I was always told who was beautiful.As an artist，I don’t see beauty just on covers of magazines.I see it everywhere.So that was my original intention—that opened my eyes a little wider and wider.”
Guidotti has created Positive Exposure，a not-for-profit organization that uses photography and video to transform public perceptions and promote a world where differences are celebrated.Guidotti and Positive Exposure are featured in a new documentary called On Beauty.
One of the women featured in the film is Jayne Waithera.“I never thought I was beautiful because nobody said that to me，but meeting him was my profound moment.I remember that particular day.He took my picture and I felt so good like I felt there’s somebody who，like，really loves me and sees me for who I am and who sees me more than my condition.”
Guidotti is travelling from city to city to promote On Beauty.He says his tour is not about money; it’s about the message.“As I travel from community to community，I’m taking photographs and I’m empowering(授权) individuals with a positive sense of who they are.They’re seeing beauty in their reflection but I’m also empowering their families and they in turn are empowering their communities as well.All is based on the philosophy of change—how you see，how you change.”

Virtually all living things have some way of getting from here to there.Animals may walk，swim，or fly.Plants and their seeds drift(飘) on wind or water or are carried by animals.Therefore，it is reasonable to expect that，in time，all species might spread to every place on Earth where favorable conditions occur.Indeed，there are some cosmopolitan species.A good example is the housefly，found almost everywhere on Earth.However，such broad distribution(分布) is the rare exception.Just as wire fences prevent cattle from leaving their grassland，biological barriers prevent the spread of many species.
What forms barriers depends on the species and its method of spread.Some are physical barriers，like waters or mountains for the land animals，and strong currents for aquatic(水生) creatures.Some barriers involve competition with other species.Most places that are suitable for the growth of a newcomer，say a dandelion seedling(蒲公英幼苗)，are already occupied by other types of plants that are well adapted to the area.Facing such fierce competition，the chances of survival for the immigrant are slim.
There are also some types of natural pathways through which organisms can overcome barriers.One type is called a corridor.It consists of a single type of habitat that passes through various other types of habitat.North America’s Rocky Mountains is an example.Various types of trees，such as the Engelmann spruce，can be found not only at the northern end of the corridor in Alaska but also at higher altitude along the entire length of this corridor.
Another type of natural pathway is known as a filter route.It consists of a series of habitats that are different from one another but are similar enough to permit organisms to gradually adapt to new conditions as they spread from habitat to habitat.The greatest difference between a corridor and a filter route is that a corridor consists of one type of habitat，while a filter consists of several similar types.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是动植物传播的不同屏障和通道，涉及较多实例和概念比较。
28．What does the underlined word “cosmopolitan” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Worldwide. B．Ordinary.
C．Famous. D．Ancient.
答案　A
解析　词义猜测题。根据画线词后句“A good example is the housefly，found almost everywhere on Earth.(家蝇就是一个很好的例子，地球上几乎到处都有家蝇)”可知，有一些物种是世界性的。所以画线词cosmopolitan为“世界性的”，与worldwide意思相近。故选A。
29．How does the author explain biological barriers in paragraph 1
A．By providing examples of them.
B．By describing the forming process of them.
C．By comparing them with a familiar man-made barrier.
D．By explaining how houseflies have been affected by them.
答案　C
解析　推理判断题。根据首段尾句“Just as wire fences prevent cattle from leaving their grassland，biological barriers prevent the spread of many species.(就像铁丝栅栏阻止牛群离开草原一样，生物屏障也阻止了许多物种的传播)”可知，作者将生物屏障与铁栅栏做类比。故选C。
30．What limits the chances of survival for dandelion seedlings
A．The danger of strong winds.
B．The lack of a suitable habitat.
C．Inadaptation to the new areas.
D．Competition with native species.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Most places...are already occupied by other types of plants...immigrant are slim.(大多数适合新来植物生长的地方，比如蒲公英幼苗，已经被其他类型的植物占据了，这些植物很好地适应了该地区。面对激烈的竞争，外来植物生存机会渺茫)”可知，大多数适宜蒲公英生长的地方已经被其他物种占据，激烈竞争使其存活几率有限。故选D。
31．What is the essential difference between a corridor and a filter route
A．The number of habitat categories.
B．The speed to adapt to new conditions.
C．The distance from one end to the other.
D．The species spread through the routes.
答案　A
解析　细节理解题。根据文章最后一句话“The greatest difference between a corridor and a filter route is that a corridor consists of one type of habitat，while a filter consists of several similar types.”可知，通道和过滤路线的本质区别在于通道只有一种栖息地类型，而过滤路线可能由几种相近的栖息地类型组成，即栖息地的类型数量不同。故选A。
D
Have you ever found yourself transported back to a particular moment or place just by hearing a song？It’s not magic—it’s science.To know more about this，researchers at the University of California，San Francisco(UCSF) conducted a study.What they discovered was that music is not just a series of notes on a page but a storyline that our brains create in our minds while listening.
Participants from the study volunteered to have their brains scanned while listening to music.They had epilepsy(癫痫) and were already undergoing brain monitoring as part of their treatment.The researchers played them short musical snippets(片段) called “phrases” with different note patterns.Some phrases were predictable，repeating familiar patterns，while others surprised them with unexpected notes.
To track their brain activity，the researchers used a special technique called “high-density electrocorticography”(ECoG)．This involves placing many tiny electrodes(电极) directly on the head，allowing for precise measurements of electrical activity in different areas.It’s like having many tiny microphones listening to different parts of your brain.By comparing the brain activity with the predictable and unpredictable phrases，the researchers could see which brain regions were more active when people anticipated the next note.
The researchers found that while our brains use similar areas to understand both music and speech，there’s a key difference.Music triggers unique “prediction zones” that speech does not.This means our brains are wired to expect what’s coming next in a song，much more so than in a conversation.
“It’s obvious that exposure to music enriches our social and emotional lives and has potential to treat a broad range of physical problems，such as sleep disorders.To understand why music is able to have all these benefits，we need to answer some fundamental questions about how music works in the brain，” said study lead author Dr.Narayan Sankaran.Long-term studies following individuals over time could provide valuable data on how the brain handles musical expectations and how the processing of musical expectations might change with aging，experience，or cognitive decline.
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了UCSF的研究人员通过脑电图记录人们在听音乐时的脑电活动，研究结果表明，音乐可以刺激大脑中的预测区域。
32．Why did UCSF conduct the study
A．To find a cure for epilepsy using music therapy.
B．To understand how epilepsy affects brain activity.
C．To explore how the brain understands and predicts music flow.
D．To compare brain activities between patients with epilepsy and healthy people.
答案　C
解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中“What they discovered was that music is not just a series of notes on a page but a storyline that our brains create in our minds while listening.”和第四段可知，这项研究是为了了解大脑如何理解和预测音乐旋律的变化。故选C。
33．How did the researchers conduct the study
A．By putting electrodes in the head.
B．By tracking brain activity using ECoG.
C．By recognizing different brain regions.
D．By comparing predictable and unpredictable phrases.
答案　B
解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中“To track their brain activity，the researchers used a special technique called ‘high-density electrocorticography’ (ECoG)．”可知，研究人员通过高密度皮质电图(ECoG)记录大脑活动来进行这项研究。故选B。
34．What does the author assume for future research
A．Examining how the brain processes expectations.
B．Investigating the impact of music on physical health.
C．Analyzing the role of music in social bonding.
D．Studying the effects of music on sleep disorders.
答案　A
解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Long-term studies following individuals over time could provide valuable data on how the brain handles musical expectations and how the processing of musical expectations might change with aging，experience，or cognitive decline.”可知，未来的研究可能是关于大脑如何应对预测。故选A。
35．What does the text mainly talk about
A．Music engages key areas for emotional impact.
B．Music can stimulate predication areas in the brain.
C．Music is beneficial to physical and mental health.
D．Music has more predictable patterns than speech.

Food waste may result from lifelong habits. 36 Follow these tips to reduce unnecessary food waste in your household and save money along the way.
Plan your meals.When you don’t know clearly what you want to eat，it’s easy to pick up more than you need，especially when items are on offer.Plan your meals for the week in advance to avoid unnecessary food waste. 37
Store your products correctly.A lot of fruit and vegetables spoil before you eat them. 38 For example，potatoes，carrots and other root vegetables last longest if kept in the dark.Fresh fruit and vegetables，like grapes or onions shouldn’t be kept with ethylene-producing products as they make other fresh produce ripen and rot(腐烂) more quickly.You can also find many ways to keep your perishables fresh by using water.
Get creative with leftovers.For those times when planning fails you and you end up with leftover meals in your fridge，instead of throwing them out，think about inventive ways to transform them. 39 Think twice before you toss items like meat bones，which form the perfect basis for stock or a soup throughout the winter.
40 Do you always buy the same things every time you are in the supermarket，yet every week you have things you throw away？Note down the products in the bin time and time again，so that you can avoid buying them (or so much of them) in the future.
A．Track your trash.
B．Sort out the rubbish.
C．Many unknown tips can keep produce fresh.
D．Try to stretch your grocery budget a little bit further.
E．Luckily，it’s easy to learn how to change these habits around.
F．Italians，for example，fry leftover rice and it becomes Arancini.
G．Work out what you plan to eat and how much of each item you’ll need.

Dear fellow students，
I am Li Hua.On behalf of our Students’ Council，I am writing to address a growing concern among us：the alarming rise in short-sightedness among teenagers.Considering its seriousness，I put forward the following advice.
In the first place，take advantage of the reasonable schedule that can reduce excessive use of eyes.If so，our eyes won’t be in a fatigue condition.In addition，put regular eye exercises into practice.They can relax our eyes，thus reducing the chance of short-sightedness.Most importantly，try to stay away from the Internet and cell phones.Otherwise，it is easy to cause short-sightedness.
Eyes are the windows of our hearts.With them，our life becomes colorful.Please take immediate action to cherish，love and protect our eyes.
Students’ Council

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。
Regardless of the weather or the distance，Paul Wilson would make sure low-income students in his neighborhood arrived at their college classes on time.
A retired engineer,76-year-old Wilson had been offering free rides to college students for the past eight years.Since he first started volunteering his car to the young people，Wilson had covered an astonishing 64,000 miles，and had countless pleasant and often humorous conversations with the students he transported to and from school.The students who he’d driven had gone on to become physicians，teachers and engineers，but what they’d also got out of their time in school was finding a role model and a friend in Wilson.Some students even called him “Grandpa”．
Tina Stern received rides from Wilson for all her four years in college，and the trips meant much more to her than just free transportation.“It’s not just a ride；you’re not just sitting there in awkward silence or with your headphones on，” Stern said.“He asks you questions and actually remembers the answers，so the next time you ride with him，he’ll check on those things.”
Wilson often went beyond to ensure the welfare and safety of the students.If they had problems with registration，Wilson was there to assist them.If they ran out of certain daily necessities，Wilson would drive to the nearest store and purchase what was needed.For many students，riding with Wilson had allowed them to complete their education—but according to Wilson，he benefited just as much from the experience.“I just love driving，and I love these kids，” Wilson said.“It’s such a privilege to be a part of these kids’ lives，getting to know them and hearing their stories.”
One day，Stern came across Wilson and his wife in the hospital，where she knew Wilson was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease(阿尔茨海默病)．

参考范文
“He isn’t what he used to be，” his wife told Stern.“He’s still the same kind and caring man，but the disease has taken a toll on his memory.” Stern felt a deep sense of sadness.She couldn’t imagine the man who had been such a constant and supportive presence in her life struggling with his own.“There must be something I could do for them，” she said to herself.
Stern and other students volunteered to help Wilson.They organized a schedule to visit him regularly，bringing him homemade meals，reading to him，and sharing stories of their lives in and out of college.They also helped with his medical appointments and errands，ensuring that he and his wife were not alone during this challenging time.It was their way of giving back to the man who had given so much to them.“We’re here for you，Grandpa，” they would say，offering him the warmth and care he had once shown them.The bond between Wilson and his “adopted” students had become a two-way street of love and support，a testament to the enduring impact of his selfless acts.
