Mind maps, also known as brain maps, mental maps, use both pictures and text to express the relationship between things, help people understand the relationship between events and establish memory links. The following three mind maps are most commonly used: tree map, bubble chart, and timeline.
Map 1: A Tree Map A tree map is a graph that looks like a tree. The theme is the trunk; the categories are the branches and the leaves. Each branch theme from the trunk to the upper right or lower right affects the subsequent result formation. It visualizes data structures. As a concise and clear structural diagram, it has unique advantages in displaying structural relationships and organizational structures. Left is one of the examples about a teaching procedure
Map 2: A Bubble Chart Bubble charts are used to expand topics, descriptions, and associative details. Generally speaking, bubble charts are composed of two or more circles. The middle circle is the central topic, and the outer circles are branch topics. There are many forms of bubble charts, which are suitable for a variety of scenes, such as deepening understanding, improving conceptual mastery and insight. Left is one of the examples about the benefits of traveling.
Map 3: A timeline
A timeline is a concept or tool used to represent the order of time. It usually connects past, present and future events in a linear manner to form a clear time context. The timeline can be applied to multiple fields, including recording history, and a person’s life experience, to help people clearly understand and track the development process of events. Above is one of the examples about how the United Kingdom came into being.
1. Which activity belongs to the post-reading stage in the tree map example of a reading class
A. Brainstorming. B. Skimming. C. Scanning. D. Summarizing.
2. What is the main function of a bubble chart
A. To visualize the organizational structure of a company.
B. To expand topics and deepen conceptual understanding.
C. To track the development process of historical events.
D. To display ideas in a concise and clear structural way.
3. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To persuade readers to use mind maps in daily life.
B. To compare the advantages of different mind map tools.
C. To introduce three common types of mind maps and their uses.
D. To teach readers how to draw mind maps for English learning.

For some families, birthday parties that often end up with bags of plastic can be a source of stress, or even shame. Many parents say the gifting aspect upsets them. But can a party really be a party without presents
According to Charlotte Mason-Curl, it’s possible! Like many parents, Mason-Curl experienced climate anxiety after her daughter’s birthday party and became determined to make a change. She wanted to get rid of the usual gift-giving tradition and replace it with something more sustainable. She launched the Kids’ Party Pact — a digital promise to take a low-waste approach to hosting and attending birthday parties. The pact has three parts: agreeing not to use plastic bags; giving secondhand or homemade gifts (or none); and issuing guidance on greener gifts for their own children.
The response from parents has been positive. “I thought we were the only family who had these concerns,” wrote one mother. “So happy other parents feel the same!”
The pact provides suggested wording for invitations to help parents communicate their stance (立场) without causing problems. For example: “Gifts are not required.” If you insist on being a rule breaker, a homemade card or a hand-picked flower would be welcome, but not necessary!
“We’re so truly accustomed not to turning up empty-handed, even if we’re asked to,” Mason-Curl explains. “It’s better to give people some guidance, telling them what to bring, than to tell them not to bring anything, because often they still bring a little something. A little something times 20 equals an alarmingly large amount of waste.”
Thanks to the Kids’ Party Pact, we are reminded that true celebration doesn’t depend on material gifts. By giving up expensive presents, we can focus on precious time with loved ones and protect our planet. It teaches both parents and children that love and friendship are the most valuable gifts, far more meaningful than any wrapped plastic or fancy goods.
4. What can be inferred from the first paragraph
A. The Kids’ Party Pact has been widely accepted by all parents.
B. Plastic bags are the biggest source of waste at birthday parties.
C. Many parents feel upset about the traditional gift-giving tradition.
D. Homemade gifts are more popular than secondhand gifts among parents.
5. Why did Charlotte Mason-Curl launch the Kids’ Party Pact
A. She hoped to earn money from the digital promise.
B. She wanted to make her daughter’s birthday more fun.
C. She found that parents were not interested in birthday parties.
D. She was worried about the environmental impact of gift-giving.
6. Which of the following is a “rule-breaker” gift according to the text
A. An expensive branded backpack.
B. A plastic-wrapped set of pencils.
C. A handwritten card and a self-picked flower.
D. A new toy car bought from a department store.
7. What can be inferred from Mason-Curl’s words in the fifth paragraph
A. Small gifts do not cause much waste.
B. People are used to bringing gifts to parties.
C. People should never bring anything to parties.
D. Only expensive gifts are the main cause of waste.
C
On any given night, countless teenagers share their anxiety and loneliness with AI chatbots. A survey published by Common Sense Media found that 72 percent of American teenagers have used AI chatbots as companions, with millions seeking “emotional or mental health support” from them. For many adolescents, these digital companions are appealing because they are always available and never judgmental.
However, this trend has raised serious alarms among experts. Research shows that when asked about self-harm, some chatbots have offered dangerous advice or failed to lead users to meaningful action. Operating in a “gray zone” between casual advice and professional therapy (治疗), these tools can sometimes provide unsafe guidance that might normalize harmful behaviors for vulnerable (易受伤害的) teenagers.
The risks are particularly high because the teenage brain is still developing. In regions governing impulse (冲动) control and emotional regulation, young people are more easily influenced and less equipped to judge the accuracy or safety of advice. This is one reason why their emotions can be so easily affected by digital platforms.
Despite these concerns, AI chatbots show potential when specifically trained as digital therapists. For example, a study on “Therabot” showed significant reductions in depression among users. Yet, these findings from adults don’t necessarily apply to teenagers. To ensure safety, researchers suggest using strict standards to test whether a chatbot can distinguish between helpful and harmful responses. In recent tests, some AI models even performed better than trained professionals, but they still showed a tendency to rate potentially harmful advice too positively.
Rather than a total ban, a middle path is needed. Experts call for a set of rules similar to those applied to medical devices, including age-appropriate safety standards and strict privacy protections. By acting now to set evidence-based standards, we can actively shape how AI supports teenagers’ mental health, rather than repeating the mistakes of unchecked social media.
8. What does the survey by Common Sense Media show
A. AI chatbots can treat depression effectively.
B. Most teenagers use AI chatbots for entertainment.
C. A majority of teens seek emotional support from AI.
D. Teenagers prefer human friends to AI companions.
9. What can we infer about chatbots from paragraph 2
A. They function as professional medical tools.
B. They provide more accurate advice than humans.
C. They are designed to replace human therapists.
D. They might treat harmful behaviors as normal.
10. Why does the author mention the teenage brain
A. To show how age affects brain development.
B. To explain why teenagers are easily influenced by AI chatbot.
C. To suggest that experts are seriously worried about brain health.
D. To describe the physical changes in the teenagers’ brain development.
11. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of AI in teen mental health
A. Objective. B. Opposed. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful
D
As a crop, the potato is among the world’s most important, with more than 350 million tons produced annually. Its ability to grow in various environments has made it essential to global food security. However, despite its popularity on our dinner tables, the plant’s origins have long remained unknown.
Now, a study published in the journal Cell provides a surprising answer: the potato is actually a “child” of tomatoes. Researchers found that potatoes arose nine million years ago through the combining of genetic material from wild tomato plants and Etuberosum, a group of potato-like plants from South America. This hybridization (杂交) led to the origin of the potato’s distinctive feature — the tuber, an underground structure that stores nutrients and can be eaten.
For years, scientists were puzzled by the potato’s appearance. Above ground, it closely looks like Etuberosum, but genetically, it is more closely related to tomatoes. To solve this mystery, an international team analyzed 128 genomes (基因组) from these plant families. They discovered that the genes responsible for tuber formation were a combination from both “parents.” The gene that tells the plant when to start making tubers originated with the tomato, while the gene controlling the growth of underground stems came from Etuberosum.
This ancient mixing of genomes wasn’t an immediate success. At first, it might have produced weak plants. However, over millions of years, natural selection led to a new species that could expand across the high Andes, where colder climates were common.
The discovery also holds great potential for agriculture. Currently, improving potato crops poses challenges because they are typically grown through cloning, which reduces their genetic diversity and makes them vulnerable to diseases. “Engineering potatoes with genetic material from tomatoes could be a promising way forward,” said Zhang Pingxian, a lead author of the study.
This research has revolutionized our understanding of the past. As plant expert Richard Veilleux noted, the study is a creative use of gene study. While the species that existed millions of years ago no longer exist, we now know the history of our food better than ever before.
12. According to the study, the potato originated from ________.
A. the process of natural selection
B. the evolution of Etuberosum alone
C. the cloning of ancient tomato plants
D. the combination of wild tomato plants and Etuberosum
13. What had long confused scientists about the potato
A. The mismatch between its appearance and genetic relation.
B. Its inability to grow in cold climates.
C. The reason for its producing tubers underground.
D. Its popularity as a global food crop.
14. How does the discovery help agriculture
A. It proves potatoes can grow in cold climates.
B. It shows cloning is the best method for potato farming.
C. It offers a way to improve potato crops by using tomato genes.
D. It explains why potatoes are not easily infected with diseases.
15. What is the best title for the passage
A. How to Improve Potato Crops.
B. The Surprising Genetic Journey of the Potato.
C. Why Potatoes Are Essential to Food Security.
D. The Future of Agriculture: Genetic Engineering.

Alina looked over the street in front of her school, looking for her mom. “Where is she ” Alina said under her breath, feeling impatient and anxious. Then she saw Zoe heading her way. As her fifth-grade classmate dropped her backpack on the ground, Alina froze.
Now she had to stand there, waiting, with Zoe... though she didn’t exactly want to. In the universe of fifth grade, Alina and Zoe were on different planets. Zoe played soccer and did ballet, raised her hand in class a lot, and had two best friends. And here’s what Alina knew about herself: she wasn’t good at playing any sport and she was nervous any time a teacher called on her. In addition, Alina didn’t even have one close friend at her school.
The only thing that Alina was enthusiastic about was anime (动画片). The new episode of her favorite series, Breakfast Academy, was airing live online at 5:30 p.m. It was 4:50 now.
Alina heard Zoe sigh. She considered asking Zoe about it, but what if Zoe pretended not to hear and didn’t even bother to reply The awkwardness was unbearable. Finally, with a huge sense of relief, she saw her mom heading in her direction.
When she looked up, however, Alina noticed her mom waving to Zoe’s mother, who was also walking toward the school. Before Alina had a chance to say a word, the two parents started chatting. Oh nooo! Alina screamed internally. If her mother started a conversation, it would take forever to escape.
Fortunately, Zoe stepped in, pulled her mother’s arm, and begged, “Mom, let’s go!”
“Wait, are you heading to the shopping center, too ” Zoe’s mom asked Alina’s mother regardless of Zoe’s request. “That’s wonderful. We can walk together and buy some fruits.” Zoe and Alina both rolled their eyes. Then Alina realized that she was now stuck with Zoe for the entire trip. Alina could only hope that this experience would be over soon.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Following behind the chatting mothers, Alina noticed that Zoe kept checking her watch.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After their mothers agreed, they rushed to Alina’s house for the live anime.

Thanks to the Kids’ Party Pact, we are reminded that true celebration doesn’t depend on material gifts. By giving up expensive presents, we can focus on precious time with loved ones and protect our planet. It teaches both parents and children that love and friendship are the most valuable gifts, far more meaningful than any wrapped plastic or fancy goods.

On any given night, countless teenagers share their anxiety and loneliness with AI chatbots. A survey published by Common Sense Media found that 72 percent of American teenagers have used AI chatbots as companions, with millions seeking “emotional or mental health support” from them. For many adolescents, these digital companions are appealing because they are always available and never judgmental.
However, this trend has raised serious alarms among experts. Research shows that when asked about self-harm, some chatbots have offered dangerous advice or failed to lead users to meaningful action. Operating in a “gray zone” between casual advice and professional therapy (治疗), these tools can sometimes provide unsafe guidance that might normalize harmful behaviors for vulnerable (易受伤害的) teenagers.
The risks are particularly high because the teenage brain is still developing. In regions governing impulse (冲动) control and emotional regulation, young people are more easily influenced and less equipped to judge the accuracy or safety of advice. This is one reason why their emotions can be so easily affected by digital platforms.
Despite these concerns, AI chatbots show potential when specifically trained as digital therapists. For example, a study on “Therabot” showed significant reductions in depression among users. Yet, these findings from adults don’t necessarily apply to teenagers. To ensure safety, researchers suggest using strict standards to test whether a chatbot can distinguish between helpful and harmful responses. In recent tests, some AI models even performed better than trained professionals, but they still showed a tendency to rate potentially harmful advice too positively.
Rather than a total ban, a middle path is needed. Experts call for a set of rules similar to those applied to medical devices, including age-appropriate safety standards and strict privacy protections. By acting now to set evidence-based standards, we can actively shape how AI supports teenagers’ mental health, rather than repeating the mistakes of unchecked social media.
8. What does the survey by Common Sense Media show
A. AI chatbots can treat depression effectively.
B. Most teenagers use AI chatbots for entertainment.
C. A majority of teens seek emotional support from AI.
D. Teenagers prefer human friends to AI companions.
9. What can we infer about chatbots from paragraph 2
A. They function as professional medical tools.
B. They provide more accurate advice than humans.
C. They are designed to replace human therapists.
D. They might treat harmful behaviors as normal.
10. Why does the author mention the teenage brain
A. To show how age affects brain development.
B. To explain why teenagers are easily influenced by AI chatbot.
C. To suggest that experts are seriously worried about brain health.
D. To describe the physical changes in the teenagers’ brain development.
11. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of AI in teen mental health
A. Objective. B. Opposed. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A
D
As a crop, the potato is among the world’s most important, with more than 350 million tons produced annually. Its ability to grow in various environments has made it essential to global food security. However, despite its popularity on our dinner tables, the plant’s origins have long remained unknown.
Now, a study published in the journal Cell provides a surprising answer: the potato is actually a “child” of tomatoes. Researchers found that potatoes arose nine million years ago through the combining of genetic material from wild tomato plants and Etuberosum, a group of potato-like plants from South America. This hybridization (杂交) led to the origin of the potato’s distinctive feature — the tuber, an underground structure that stores nutrients and can be eaten.
For years, scientists were puzzled by the potato’s appearance. Above ground, it closely looks like Etuberosum, but genetically, it is more closely related to tomatoes. To solve this mystery, an international team analyzed 128 genomes (基因组) from these plant families. They discovered that the genes responsible for tuber formation were a combination from both “parents.” The gene that tells the plant when to start making tubers originated with the tomato, while the gene controlling the growth of underground stems came from Etuberosum.
This ancient mixing of genomes wasn’t an immediate success. At first, it might have produced weak plants. However, over millions of years, natural selection led to a new species that could expand across the high Andes, where colder climates were common.
The discovery also holds great potential for agriculture. Currently, improving potato crops poses challenges because they are typically grown through cloning, which reduces their genetic diversity and makes them vulnerable to diseases. “Engineering potatoes with genetic material from tomatoes could be a promising way forward,” said Zhang Pingxian, a lead author of the study.
This research has revolutionized our understanding of the past. As plant expert Richard Veilleux noted, the study is a creative use of gene study. While the species that existed millions of years ago no longer exist, we now know the history of our food better than ever before.
12. According to the study, the potato originated from ________.
A. the process of natural selection
B. the evolution of Etuberosum alone
C. the cloning of ancient tomato plants
D. the combination of wild tomato plants and Etuberosum
13. What had long confused scientists about the potato
A. The mismatch between its appearance and genetic relation.
B. Its inability to grow in cold climates.
C. The reason for its producing tubers underground.
D. Its popularity as a global food crop.
14. How does the discovery help agriculture
A. It proves potatoes can grow in cold climates.
B. It shows cloning is the best method for potato farming.
C. It offers a way to improve potato crops by using tomato genes.
D. It explains why potatoes are not easily infected with diseases.
15. What is the best title for the passage
A. How to Improve Potato Crops.
B. The Surprising Genetic Journey of the Potato.
C. Why Potatoes Are Essential to Food Security.
D. The Future of Agriculture: Genetic Engineering.

47. 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。
Alina looked over the street in front of her school, looking for her mom. “Where is she ” Alina said under her breath, feeling impatient and anxious. Then she saw Zoe heading her way. As her fifth-grade classmate dropped her backpack on the ground, Alina froze.
Now she had to stand there, waiting, with Zoe... though she didn’t exactly want to. In the universe of fifth grade, Alina and Zoe were on different planets. Zoe played soccer and did ballet, raised her hand in class a lot, and had two best friends. And here’s what Alina knew about herself: she wasn’t good at playing any sport and she was nervous any time a teacher called on her. In addition, Alina didn’t even have one close friend at her school.
The only thing that Alina was enthusiastic about was anime (动画片). The new episode of her favorite series, Breakfast Academy, was airing live online at 5:30 p.m. It was 4:50 now.
Alina heard Zoe sigh. She considered asking Zoe about it, but what if Zoe pretended not to hear and didn’t even bother to reply The awkwardness was unbearable. Finally, with a huge sense of relief, she saw her mom heading in her direction.
When she looked up, however, Alina noticed her mom waving to Zoe’s mother, who was also walking toward the school. Before Alina had a chance to say a word, the two parents started chatting. Oh nooo! Alina screamed internally. If her mother started a conversation, it would take forever to escape.
Fortunately, Zoe stepped in, pulled her mother’s arm, and begged, “Mom, let’s go!”
“Wait, are you heading to the shopping center, too ” Zoe’s mom asked Alina’s mother regardless of Zoe’s request. “That’s wonderful. We can walk together and buy some fruits.” Zoe and Alina both rolled their eyes. Then Alina realized that she was now stuck with Zoe for the entire trip. Alina could only hope that this experience would be over soon.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Following behind the chatting mothers, Alina noticed that Zoe kept checking her watch.

【答案】范文：
Following behind the chatting mothers, Alina noticed that Zoe kept checking her watch. Gathering her courage, she whispered, “Are you in a hurry ” Zoe looked surprised, then smiled softly. “I’m waiting for the new episode of Breakfast Academy! It’s my favorite anime and I don’t want to miss it.” Alina’s eyes lit up — she loved it too. The awkwardness melted away as they complained about their mothers’ endless chat, realizing they had something in common, a bond that broke the invisible wall between them. Hoping to catch the episode on time, they quietly walked up to their mothers, asking for permission to leave early.
After their mothers agreed, they rushed to Alina’s house for the live anime. Upon arrival, Alina turned on the computer quickly, and they sat side by side, holding their breath as the new episode started. They watched attentively, sometimes gasping at the exciting plot and whispering their thoughts to each other. When the episode ended in suspense, they grinned at each other, still immersed in the story. Alina felt warm inside — for the first time, she didn’t feel lonely. What started as an awkward, unwanted trip turned out to be a gift: it taught her that friendship often hides in unexpected moments, and that breaking her shyness to reach out could lead to something beautiful.
