But with the patient help of 15 , he learned quickly. “The first time I typed a sentence by myself, I felt like I had 16 a huge mountain,” he said.
The program also taught them how to stay 17 online. “We learned not to share our passwords or believe everything we read,” Li Wei explained.

三、阅读理解（本题共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
In the hot summer of 2025, many cities in China faced record-breaking temperatures. But one neighborhood in Nanjing found a cool solution—not air conditioners, but “blue spaces”.
Blue spaces are areas with water, like rivers, lakes, fountains, or even small man-made ponds. Scientists have found that being near water can cool the air by 2-3°C. This happens because water absorbs heat during the day and releases it slowly at night.
The Nanjing neighborhood built a small winding river through its central park. They also added several misting fountains (喷雾喷泉) that spray tiny water drops into the air. “When you walk by, you feel an instant drop in temperature,” said Ms. Chen, a resident. “It’s like nature’s air conditioner.”
Blue spaces are not new, but cities are now rediscovering their value. In Wuhan, the government is turning hard concrete drainage channels into natural-looking streams with plants and small waterfalls. In Chengdu, some schools have built small ponds where students can cool off during breaks.
Besides cooling, blue spaces also help with flooding by holding rainwater. They create homes for fish and birds, and they simply make people feel calmer. Studies show that looking at water can lower stress and improve mental health.
As global temperatures rise, experts say blue spaces will become more important. “Green spaces are great, but blue spaces are even more effective at cooling,” said Dr. Li, an environmental scientist. “The best cities of the future will have both.”
26. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Cities are getting too hot to live in.
B. Blue spaces can help cool cities naturally.
C. Nanjing is the hottest city in China.
D. Air conditioners are bad for the environment.
27. According to the passage, how do blue spaces cool the air
A. By creating shade from trees.
B. By sending cool water into the sky.
C. By absorbing heat during the day.
D. By blocking sunlight with buildings.
28. What does the underlined word “misting” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Making very small drops of water.
B. Making a loud noise.
C. Changing color.
D. Moving very fast.
29. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a benefit of blue spaces
A. They help prevent flooding.
B. They provide habitats for wildlife.
C. They generate electricity for the city.
D. They reduce stress for people.
B
Have you ever heard of “slow reading” In a world where we scroll (滚屏) through short videos and news headlines, a growing number of young people in China are choosing to read books—very, very slowly.
Liu Yang, a 15-year-old from Beijing, spends two weeks reading one novel. “I read only 10 pages each day,” he said. “I underline sentences I like and write my thoughts in the margins (页边空白). It feels like having a conversation with the writer.”
Liu is part of a “slow reading club” at his school. The club has 45 members. They meet every Friday to discuss one book they have been reading for a whole month. “In our fast-paced world, we forget to stop and think,” said the club’s founder, Ms. Zhao, a Chinese teacher. “Slow reading trains patience and deep thinking.”
Experts agree. Dr. Wang, a psychologist, explains, “When you read slowly, your brain has time to connect new ideas with what you already know. This improves memory and understanding. Quick reading, like scrolling online, often leads to shallow understanding.”
The slow reading movement has spread to public libraries. The Shanghai Library now has a “Slow Reading Room” with no Wi-Fi and only soft light. Visitors are asked to turn off their phones and read for at least one hour without interruption.
Critics (批评者) say slow reading is not practical for students who have to finish many books for exams. But supporters argue that slow reading is not about quantity—it’s about quality. “Reading one book deeply is better than skimming ten books without remembering anything,” said Liu Yang.
30. What is Liu Yang’s habit of reading
A. He reads as fast as he can.
B. He reads only short articles online.
C. He reads a few pages slowly each day.
D. He reads only for exams.
31. According to Dr. Wang, what is a benefit of slow reading
A. It helps you finish more books.
B. It improves memory and understanding.
C. It makes reading more exciting.
D. It requires less effort.
32. What can we infer from the passage about the “Slow Reading Room” in Shanghai Library
A. It is always crowded with students.
B. It encourages focused, interruption-free reading.
C. It allows people to use their phones freely.
D. It only has digital books.
C
① In 2025, a new kind of transportation is catching people’s attention in China: the “vertical take-off electric aircraft” or VTEA (垂直起降电动飞机). These small, pilotless planes look like large drones (无人机) but are big enough to carry one or two people.
② The idea is simple: beat traffic by flying over it. In cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou, where traffic jams are common, VTEA could change daily commuting (通勤). A 30-minute car trip might take only 5 minutes by air.
③ The first public test flight of a VTEA happened in Guangzhou in April 2025. The aircraft flew from a downtown “skyport” (空中港口) to a nearby island, crossing the Pearl River in just 3 minutes. The flight was fully automatic (自动的); no pilot was needed. Passengers just got in, buckled up, and enjoyed the view.
④ However, there are big challenges. Safety is the number one concern. What if the aircraft loses power or hits a bird Another problem is noise. Although electric engines are quieter than those of helicopters, a fleet of flying taxis could still be very noisy for people on the ground. Also, landing space is limited. Cities would need to build many “skyports” on rooftops or parking lots.
⑤ The government is working on rules for VTEA. By 2026, some cities may start limited passenger services. The price will be high at first—maybe 10 times higher than a taxi. But as technology improves, costs are expected to fall.
⑥ Despite the challenges, many experts are hopeful. “VTEA is not a dream anymore. It’s a reality that is arriving sooner than we think,” said an aviation engineer.
33. What is the main idea of paragraph ②
A. VTEA is too expensive for most people.
B. VTEA could help people travel faster in cities.
C. VTEA is only used for fun.
D. VTEA is quieter than a car.
34. According to the passage, what is a challenge for VTEA
A. It cannot carry heavy people.
B. It is not automatic.
C. It might be too noisy for people on the ground.
D. It can only fly over rivers.
35. What does the underlined word “fleet” in paragraph ④ probably mean
A. A single aircraft.
B. A group of vehicles.
C. A type of engine.
D. A problem.
36. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage
A. ①--②③--④⑤⑥ B. ①②--③④--⑤⑥
C. ①--②③④--⑤⑥ D. ①②③--④⑤--⑥
D
You might have heard of “carbon footprint” (碳足迹)—the amount of CO you produce through activities like driving or using electricity. But have you heard of “plastic footprint” It’s the amount of single-use plastic you use and throw away.
Every year, the world produces about 400 million tons of plastic waste. Only 9% is recycled. The rest ends up in landfills (垃圾填埋场) or the ocean. By 2050, there could be more plastic than fish in the sea by weight.
So, how can you reduce your plastic footprint Here are four simple steps.
Step 1: Refuse
Say no to plastic straws (吸管), bags, and cutlery (餐具) when you don’t need them. Bring your own reusable bag when shopping. A reusable water bottle can save hundreds of plastic bottles a year.
Step 2: Reduce
Buy products with less plastic packaging. Choose bar soap instead of liquid soap in a plastic bottle. Use a bamboo toothbrush instead of a plastic one.
Step 3: Reuse
Before throwing something away, think: Can I use it again Glass jars can become storage containers. Old plastic bottles can become plant pots.
Step 4: Recycle
When you must use plastic, make sure to recycle it correctly. Rinse (冲洗) out food containers. Check your local recycling rules because they vary from city to city.
Many schools in China are now teaching students about plastic footprint. The Green School in Suzhou has a “Zero Plastic Lunch Day” once a month. Students bring lunch in reusable boxes and use metal chopsticks. “At first it was hard,” said one student, “but now it’s a habit.”
Small changes add up. If every teenager in China refused just one plastic bag a week, that would save over 1 billion bags a year.
37. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To explain how plastic is made.
B. To describe the dangers of plastic in the ocean.
C. To give advice on reducing plastic use.
D. To compare plastic with other materials.
38. What does the writer mean by “plastic footprint”
A. The shape of plastic waste.
B. The amount of single-use plastic a person uses.
C. The size of plastic bags.
D. The color of recycled plastic.
39. Which of the following is an example of the “Refuse” step
A. Using a plastic bottle as a plant pot.
B. Buying bar soap instead of liquid soap.
C. Saying “no” to a plastic straw at a restaurant.
D. Rinsing a yoghurt cup before putting it in recycling.
40. What can we learn from the Green School in Suzhou
A. Students there never use plastic.
B. The school has a special day to reduce plastic use.
C. Plastic is not allowed anywhere in the city.
D. Students have to buy new lunch boxes every month.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Do you often feel tired after school You are not alone. Many teenagers feel sleepy in class or while doing homework. 41
First, get enough sleep. Teenagers need 8-10 hours of sleep each night. 42 Try going to bed 15 minutes earlier each night until you reach your goal.
Second, eat smart. Foods high in sugar, like candy and soda, give you a quick burst of energy followed by a crash. 43 Whole grains, eggs, and nuts provide steady energy.
Third, move your body. It might sound strange, but physical activity actually gives you more energy. 44 A 10-minute walk or a few stretches can wake up your body and brain.
Fourth, manage your screen time. The blue light from phones and computers can disrupt (扰乱) your sleep. 45 You’ll sleep better and feel more rested the next day.
Finally, drink water. Even mild dehydration (脱水) can make you feel tired. Keep a water bottle on your desk and take small sips throughout the day.
A. A short break to exercise can help a lot.
B. Instead, choose foods that release energy slowly.
C. Here are some science-backed ways to fight tiredness.
D. Try to turn off screens at least one hour before bed.
E. The more you sleep, the lazier you become.
F. But many get far less.

五、短文填空（本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下面短文，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Do you know that in 2024, China sent three new astronauts to its space station They stayed there for six 56 (month). Life in space is very different from life on Earth.
One big difference is gravity (重力). There is almost no gravity in space, so astronauts float (漂浮). 57 (eat) is not easy. Food can float away! That’s 58 astronauts eat special food from bags. They also have to tie 59 (they) to a sleeping bag at night, or they will float around.
Another problem is exercise. Without gravity, muscles (肌肉) get weak 60 (quick). Astronauts must exercise two hours every day on special machines. Otherwise, when they return to Earth, they 61 (not be) able to walk.
Space stations also 62 (have) very little fresh food. Most food is dried or frozen. But Chinese astronauts are lucky. In 2024, they grew 63 (they) own lettuce (生菜) in a small space garden! “It’s the 64 (good) vegetable I’ve ever eaten,” one astronaut said.
Living in space is hard, but astronauts say it’s worth it. They do experiments that can’t be done on Earth. They also get to see the Earth 65 above—a beautiful blue ball floating in the dark universe.
六、阅读与回答问题（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。（每题答案不超过6个词）
Have you ever heard of “time blindness” It doesn’t mean you can’t see. It means having a poor sense of time passing. People with time blindness often lose track of how long something takes. They might think a shower took 5 minutes when it really took 20.
Time blindness is common in teenagers. Why Because the part of the brain that manages time, called the prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮层), is still developing until the mid-20s. That’s why many teens are often late or underestimate (低估) how long homework will take.
But don’t worry. There are ways to “train” your time sense. First, use a timer. Set it for 10 minutes and try to guess when it will go off. With practice, you’ll get better. Second, break tasks into small pieces. Instead of “do homework for 2 hours”, try “finish 5 math problems”. Third, make a daily schedule (日程表). Check it often. Over time, your brain learns to follow time better.
Dr. Li, a brain scientist, says, “Time blindness is not laziness. It’s a brain difference. But like a muscle, time sense can grow stronger with exercise.”
So, if you are often late or surprised by how much time has passed, don’t blame (责怪) yourself. Just start training your brain today.

Dear Emma,
I’m glad to hear about your Future Technology Day. I’d like to introduce China’s high-speed railway (HSR). It’s a train that runs up to 350 km/h. The trains are very clean, quiet and comfortable. Why do I recommend it First, it connects cities fast and safely. Second, it uses electricity, so it’s good for the environment. Many countries are learning from China’s HSR technology. I think it’s a perfect example of cool Chinese tech. Hope your poster turns out great!
Yours,
Li Hua
