A young boy named Leo lived in a coastal village. Every morning, he would walk along the beach, watching the fishing boats leave the harbor. Leo dreamed of one day ___15___ the sea himself, not just to catch fish, but to discover the unknown islands his grandfather always talked about.
His grandfather was an old sailor who had travelled the oceans. "The sea can give you everything, but it can also ___16___ everything away," he would say, pointing to his wooden leg. Despite his injury, his eyes sparkled when he spoke of the sea. He gave Leo a small wooden compass (指南针) on his tenth birthday. "This ___17___ my father when he was at sea. Now it's yours. Let it guide you."
Years passed, and Leo became a skilled fisherman. But the call of the horizon was strong. One day, he decided it was time. He fixed up his small boat and told the villagers about his plan.

三、阅读理解
阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。（本大题共13小题，每小题2分，共26分）
A
What will life be like in 2050 While we can't predict everything, experts have made some exciting guesses about how technology will shape our daily lives.
Our homes will become much smarter. A central AI system will control everything from lighting to temperature. Your fridge will know when you run out of milk and order it for you. Robots will handle most housework, such as cleaning, cooking, and even gardening. When you wake up, your smart mirror will show your health report for the day and suggest what you should eat.
Transportation will see a big change too. Self-driving cars will be everywhere, making roads much safer. Flying taxis might become common in big cities to avoid traffic jams on the ground. For long-distance travel, hyperloop trains could carry passengers at speeds of over 1,000 kilometers per hour. A trip from Beijing to Shanghai might take only an hour.
In education, virtual reality (虚拟现实) will bring history lessons to life. Students could "walk" through ancient Rome or "swim" in the deep ocean without leaving the classroom. AI teachers will provide personalized lessons for each student's needs. Learning will no longer be limited to classrooms and textbooks.
Healthcare will become more preventive. Wearable devices will continuously monitor our health and warn us before we get sick. 3D printing might be used to create human organs for transplants. Doctors could perform surgeries remotely using robots.
Of course, all these changes bring challenges. Privacy and job losses are serious concerns. But one thing is certain: the future will be very different from today.
25. What will the smart mirror do according to the passage
A. Help you choose clothes.
B. Show your health report.
C. Play music for you.
D. Talk with you.
26. How fast could hyperloop trains travel
A. Over 500 km per hour.
B. Over 1,000 km per hour.
C. Over 100 km per hour.
D. Over 2,000 km per hour.
27. What is a concern about future technology mentioned in the passage
A. Too much homework.
B. Privacy and job losses.
C. Expensive food.
D. Slow transportation.
B
In a big city, there was a wall that separated two neighborhoods. On one side lived the Blues, and on the other side lived the Greens. The two groups never talked to each other. The Blues thought the Greens were too loud. The Greens thought the Blues were too quiet. Over time, the wall grew taller in their minds.
A young Blue boy named Kai was curious. One day, while flying his kite, the string broke, and the kite flew over the wall. Kai was sad because his grandfather had made that kite for him. He decided to climb the wall to get it back, even though it was forbidden.
On top of the wall, he saw a Green girl about his age. She was holding his kite and smiling. "Is this yours " she asked. "It landed in my garden." Kai nodded. "Thank you," he said. Her name was Mira. They started talking. Kai learned that Mira also loved flying kites.
They began meeting secretly on top of the wall every week to fly their kites together. They laughed at the same jokes and shared their dreams. Kai realized the Greens weren't loud—they were just full of life. Mira realized the Blues weren't quiet—they were just thoughtful.
The two children decided to tell their families about their friendship. At first, the adults were shocked. But seeing the genuine smiles of Kai and Mira, their hearts softened. Slowly, they started talking, first through the gate, then visiting each other's homes. The wall was still there, but a beautiful garden was planted along both sides. It became a meeting place, not a dividing line.
The wall never came down, but it didn't matter anymore. As Kai's grandfather said, "You don't have to tear down a wall to overcome it. You just have to look over it."
28. Why did the Blues and Greens not talk to each other
A. They spoke different languages.
B. They had misunderstandings about each other.
C. A law forbade them from talking.
D. They lived too far away from each other.
29. How did Kai and Mira first meet
A. At a community meeting.
B. Through their parents.
C. Over a kite that flew across the wall.
D. At a school event.
30. What happened between the two neighborhoods at the end
A. The wall was finally torn down.
B. They built a higher wall.
C. They moved away from each other.
D. They started communicating and built a garden.
C
A recent study by a team of scientists has found that being in nature can significantly improve our mental health. The research, published in the journal "Nature and Wellbeing," involved over 20,000 people in different countries.
The study found that spending at least 120 minutes a week in nature—such as parks, forests, or beaches—is connected with better health and wellbeing. People who did this reported feeling happier and less stressed. They also had lower blood pressure and better sleep. Interestingly, it didn't matter whether the 120 minutes were taken in one long trip or several short visits spread out over the week.
Why does nature have this effect Scientists offer several explanations. First, natural environments provide a break from the constant noise and demands of city life. The quiet and green scenery allow our minds to rest and recover. Second, air quality is often better in natural areas, which helps our bodies function better. Third, being in nature usually involves physical activity, like walking, which is known to boost mood.
The researchers also pointed out that you don't need to travel far. Even city parks or small gardens can provide benefits. The key is to find a natural space you enjoy and visit it regularly. They hope that their findings will encourage governments to create more green spaces in cities and for doctors to "prescribe" time in nature for their patients.
This study adds to a growing body of evidence that we are deeply connected to the natural world. As one scientist put it, "We come from nature, and returning to it is returning to ourselves."
31. How many people took part in the study
A. Over 2,000.
B. Over 20,000.
C. Over 120,000.
D. Over 200,000.
32. How much time in nature weekly is linked to better health
A. At least 60 minutes.
B. At least 90 minutes.
C. At least 120 minutes.
D. At least 150 minutes.
33. Which is NOT mentioned as a reason for nature's positive effects
A. Peaceful environment for mental rest.
B. Better air quality.
C. Physical activity involved.
D. Meeting new people.
34. What do the researchers hope their findings will lead to
A. Fewer city parks.
B. More green spaces in cities.
C. Less physical activity.
D. Higher buildings in cities.
D
Most people believe they have an inner voice, a "little me" inside their head that narrates (叙述) their life. This is called "internal monologue" (内心独白). But research has shown that this experience is not the same for everyone. In fact, some people don't have an inner voice at all.
A study by a psychology professor revealed that 30 to 50 percent of people frequently talk to themselves in their heads. For them, it's like a constant radio channel playing. They use it to plan, make decisions, or replay conversations. However, another group of people rarely or never experience this. They think in images, feelings, or abstract ideas instead of words.
A person without an internal monologue might prepare for a speech by visualizing (可视化) the key points as pictures or maps. When asked to "think about what to have for lunch," they see images of different foods and simply feel which one is more appealing, without a verbal thought like "I want noodles today." This doesn't mean they are not thinking—they are just processing information differently.
The differences can sometimes cause misunderstandings. For example, in a meeting, a person with an active inner monologue might need to organize their thoughts into words before speaking. A person without one might simply "know" the answer but struggle to explain their thinking process step by step. Neither way is better; they are just different ways the human brain works.
This discovery is important for education. Teachers usually ask students to "think in words," like writing outlines or summarizing. But for some students, thinking in pictures or mind maps might be more natural. Recognizing these differences can help everyone learn and communicate more effectively.
35. What does the study say about internal monologue
A. Everyone experiences it.
B. It's a sign of intelligence.
C. Not everyone has it.
D. It only happens when we are alone.
36. How might a person without an inner voice plan a speech
A. By writing it word for word in their head.
B. By visualizing key points as pictures.
C. By talking aloud to themselves.
D. By listening to music.
37. Why is this discovery important for education
A. It shows that thinking in words is the only way.
B. It can help teachers understand different thinking styles.
C. It proves that mind maps are better than outlines.
D. It suggests that schools should stop teaching writing.

In the heart of a busy city, there was a small bakery run by an elderly woman named Rosa. She had been baking bread and cakes for over forty years. Her bakery was not the biggest or the fanciest, but people came from all over the city to buy her bread.
Rosa's secret was simple. She used an old sourdough starter (酸面团酵母) that her grandmother had given her when she was a young girl. "This starter is alive," Rosa would say to her customers. "It has been in my family for over a hundred years. It's what makes the bread special."
Every morning at 4 a.m., Rosa would arrive at her bakery. She mixed flour, water, salt, and a bit of the starter. She never used machines. Her hands knew the dough (面团) by feel. She would knead, shape, and wait. The waiting was important, she said. "Good things take time."
As the city changed and tall modern buildings rose around her little shop, Rosa kept her old ways. Developers offered her a lot of money for her spot, but she refused. "This isn't just a shop," she told them. "It's a home for the community."
When Rosa finally decided to retire, she didn't sell the starter. She gave it away to three young bakers in the neighborhood, teaching them her way. "The secret isn't just in the starter," she told them on her last day. "It's in the love you put in every day. Remember, good things take time."

范文：
Labor is something we should all take pride in. Our school is holding a "Campus Little Labor Star" event, and I would like to recommend my classmate Zhang Lei.
Zhang Lei is a hardworking and responsible boy. At school, he volunteers to clean the classroom every day after class. He always arranges the desks neatly and makes sure the blackboard is clean for the next lesson. During the school's tree-planting day, he was the first to arrive and planted more than ten trees with great care. At home, he often helps his parents with housework. He washes the dishes, sweeps the floor, and even cooks simple meals for his family when his parents are busy with work.
Through labor, Zhang Lei has not only improved his life skills but also developed a strong sense of responsibility. He always says that labor makes him feel closer to his classmates and family. I believe he sets a good example for all of us. He truly deserves the title of "Campus Little Labor Star."
