Salvador Dali is one of the most influential and famous painters of all time. Not just a painter, but his personality was as unique as his paintings. His surrealistic paintings are so famous that they overshadow his other artworks.
Hearing the name “Salvador Dali” alone creates an image, or perhaps I should say, a painting in the minds of people. His paintings are usually surrealistic and hard to understand, but once understood, they convey their message so fluently and beautifully. During his creative exploration, Dali went deep into various artistic styles, such as impressionism, cloisonne (分格画), and cubism, before eventually venturing into surrealism. It was in this period that he created one of his famous paintings, Sick Boy — Pointillism (点彩派).
Pointillism is the method of painting using only small dots of color to create the painting. Sick Boy is a clear mixture of expressionism and pointillism, but there’s more going on here. Dali has added a little bit of surrealism as well. This is a self-portrait of him in Cadaqués, the coastal town where he used to spend his summers.
While the sickness of the child can be seen from his lying position, exhausted and weak, and looking at the viewers’ eyes, the actual sickness is far more terrifying. Take a look at his hand with long, pointed fingers. His face presents a disturbing and threatening expression. It is hardly human. It almost feels like there is another creature inside the body of this kid, using the skin and face as a cover.
The parallel can be drawn from the other living thing in the painting, the caged canary (金丝雀). Similar to the canary, which is imprisoned inside this cage to stay, the boy’s true self is imprisoned inside the body. There might be some dark and sick intentions inside his mind, but those must be controlled. The way the sick child lies on the chair and stares ahead makes it one of the frightening paintings by Salvador Dali.
24．What are the main features of Salvador Dali’s paintings
A．Hope and optimism. B．Complexity and confusion.
C．Beauty and simplicity. D．Despair and pessimism.
25．What is the subject of Sick Boy
A．A portrait Dali painted for himself.
B．The painter’s favorite coastal town.
C．A canary imprisoned inside the cage.
D．The exploration of various artistic styles.
26．What is the significance of the caged canary in the painting
A．It represents the boy’s sickness.
B．It conveys the beauty of nature.
C．It symbolizes the boy’s trapped true self.
D．It shows the sick boy’s love for animals.
27．Which words can best describe Salvador Dali
A．Energetic and realistic. B．Hopeless and stubborn.
C．Strange and frightening. D．Creative and imaginative.
For centuries, the Rhine River has been celebrated as the lifeline of Europe, a vital waterway for commerce and culture. However, a study published in January 2026 reveals a troubling modern reality: this historic river now acts as a massive conveyor belt for rubbish, carrying between 3,000 and 4,700 tons of large garbage into the North Sea every single year.
How could such a vast amount of waste have been missed The answer lies in a revolutionary new research method. For an entire year, researchers worked with local citizen scientists to operate a special floating device called a litter trap. This device filtered water from the surface down to 80 centimeters deep. Unlike older methods that relied on brief visual surveys, this long-term physical collection recorded the true, disorganized flow of garbage.
The data showed enormous changes, with the amount of rubbish collected in a two-week period varying wildly from as few as 67 pieces to over 2,700, accounting for why short-term observations failed to get the full picture. The collected garbage tells a clear story about its origins. Detailed analysis showed that while plastic items made up about 70% of all pieces, they were mostly lightweight, only 15% of the total weight.
The finding is particularly alarming for one key reason: over 56% of all rubbish was linked directly to the choices of individual consumers, with items like food wrappers and beverage (饮料) bottles being most common. Specific activities also left their mark, with litter from fireworks making up 10.7% of the total and tobacco-related waste like cigarette butts contributing another 6.5%.
This year-long project, powered in part by dedicated (敬业的) volunteers, proves that long-term, hands-on monitoring is essential to accurately measure environmental challenges. It provides a powerful model for how communities and scientists can work together to gather the evidence needed for action. The Rhine’s story is no longer just about its scenic beauty or economic importance; it is an urgent call to address the tide (浪潮) of waste our modern lifestyle creates, before it all washes out to sea.
28．What does the underlined phrase “conveyor belt” in paragraph 1 most likely mean
A．A natural waterfall that cleans the river.
B．A tourist attraction along the river.
C．Something that continuously carries and moves things.
D．A device used to measure water depth.
29．What did the 2026 study mainly find about the Rhine River
A．It has lost its role as a waterway for commerce.
B．It carries a huge amount of garbage into the sea.
C．Its water quality has been fully restored.
D．It faces a declining number of fish species.
30．Why did previous short-term observations fail to get the full picture of the river’s pollution
A．They did not involve enough volunteers.
B．They only collected water samples from the surface.
C．They missed the dramatic changes in garbage flow.
D．They focused only on plastic waste.
31．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．The river’s pollution problem will solve itself over time.
B．The study shows the value of cooperation between scientists and citizens.
C．Individual efforts are useless in addressing plastic pollution.
D．The study calls for a complete ban on the use of plastic.
Despite decades of medical advances, detecting health-related molecule (分子) still relies on bodily liquids like blood, requiring blood draws from most patients, especially people with diabetes who need frequent finger blood tests. However, researchers from the University of Chicago have developed a lightweight device named ABLE, which collects and detects molecules in the air. This 4×8-inch device is a potential game-changer for medicine and public health.
Detecting molecules in the air has long fallen behind liquid detection, mainly because target particles (微粒) are extremely rare — there may be only one in a trillion. To solve this problem, the team turned air into liquid. The device draws in air, adds water vapor with a humidifier, and cools it to turn air into small drops. These drops trap particles and slide into a small container, making detection easy with common tools used for liquid analysis.
Early tests proved its effectiveness. It caught easily evaporated (挥发的) coffee vapor, detected glucose in breath, identified E. coli in the air, and found signs of inflammation (炎症) in mice with unhealthy gut bacteria. Obviously, it solved the problem of collecting molecules that evaporate easily — a major worry during the device’s development.
The device was first inspired by the need for painless tests for early-born babies in ICUs. These fragile babies are likely to have health problems, and repeated blood tests may put them in danger. Doctors hope the device can track health signs without taking blood, protecting these high-risk patients. It also shows promise for diagnosing inflammatory bowel disease, though the related breath signs first need to be recorded. The team plans to improve and make it smaller to create a wearable device for daily use.
Besides medical uses, this achievement may open the door to new physics research on air impurities and state changes of matter. As a new tool for detecting air chemistry, ABLE fills the space between air and liquid molecule analysis, creating possibilities for various new developments in healthcare and science.
32．Why did the researchers develop ABLE
A．To change medicine and public health.
B．To identify health molecules without liquid.
C．To reduce finger blood checks for patients with diabetes.
D．To take the place of blood tests in hospitals.
33．What can we infer about ABLE
A．It is small and wearable for daily use.
B．It diagnoses inflammatory bowel disease easily.
C．It has proved useful for newly born babies.
D．It has overcome a key technical challenge.
34．Who will least likely benefit from ABLE
A．A chemist. B．A physician. C．A psychologist. D．A physicist.
35．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．A Tool for Bodily Liquid Analysis.
B．A Tool for Airborne Particle Counting.
C．A Device for Modern Physics Research.
D．A Device for Air Molecule Detection.
Helping others can be one of the most meaningful things you do, but it can also take a lot out of you, making you lose sight of the fact that you need support, too. You might think pushing through is normal. 36 You need to learn how to invest in yourself and pay attention to your mental well-being.
Burnout doesn’t always look like exhaustion.
Burnout isn’t always obvious. 37 It can be irritability (易怒), lack of focus, or feeling like you’re disconnected from the work you used to enjoy. Being aware of the emotional signs early makes it easier to step in and make changes. That might mean adjusting your schedule, taking breaks when you can, or just giving yourself permission to unplug after a long day.
Learning something new boosts mental energy.
Doing the same routine every day can start to feel dull. 38 Adding something fresh to your day, like learning a new technique or exploring a new topic, can bring your energy back. A few minutes a day reading an article, watching a short tutorial, or engaging in a new task can refresh your mindset.
39
If you want to know how to invest in yourself, having control over your schedule can make a huge difference in how you feel day to day. When you’re able to choose how and when you complete tasks, it reduces stress and helps you feel more balanced.
Small wins matter for motivation.
Sometimes big goals feel out of reach. That’s why small wins are so important. Checking something off your list — even if it’s just attending a class — builds positive drive. 40 Over time, those small wins lead to larger milestones.
A．Purpose is a powerful mental health tool.
B．Time flexibility leads to emotional stability.
C．It doesn’t just show up as physical tiredness.
D．Sometimes it can mean saying yes to extra tasks.
E．When that happens, your interest and motivation can fade.
F．But the truth is, constantly putting yourself last isn’t sustainable.
G．Each time you complete a step, you prove to yourself that progress is happening.

67．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。
It was supposed to be a perfect father-son biking adventure. Sixteen-year-old Tom and his dad had planned a 50-kilometer bike ride through the countryside to celebrate Tom’s birthday. The night before, Tom was so excited that he could barely sleep, imagining the open road and the beautiful scenery.
Before leaving, Tom’s dad put on an old silver watch. It was a family treasure passed down from his grandpa. The watch’s glass was cracked, but it still kept time accurately, standing as a symbol of the family’s toughness. “This watch has seen its share of tough times, just like us,” his dad said, smiling at Tom. “But it keeps going, and so will we.” Tom nodded, feeling close to his dad when he looked at the watch.
In the warm morning sun, they set off. Their backpacks were filled with water, energy-boosting snacks and a first-aid kit. Tom’s shiny red bike, which he had spent weeks cleaning and fixing, shone brightly in the sun. As they cycled along the country roads, the fresh smell of grass and wildflowers filled the air. Tom felt extremely happy and pedaled (踩踏板) even harder with excitement.
However, as the morning passed, the sun gradually disappeared behind thick dark clouds. By noon, a cold and heavy rain started to fall. The dry dirt path quickly turned into a muddy mess. Tom’s legs, once moving smoothly, now ached with every push of the pedals. He took a deep breath and tried to focus on the rhythm of his pedaling, trying to ignore the rain and the tiredness in his legs.
Although they were wet and uncomfortable, they kept going. They were determined not to let the weather stop them. But when they turned a sharp corner, they saw a long, steep slope (斜坡). The rain was pouring heavily, and the path ahead looked slippery with mud sliding down. Tom’s heart sank, and he began to doubt himself.
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。
As Tom hesitated, his dad placed a firm hand on his shoulder.

【原文】
W: Public libraries around the United States are changing what it means to be a library. Instead of just being places for books, they have become community centers. Lewes Public Library is one of them. This month, the library held events like discussions about books and current events, movie showings, poetry writing workshops, and Spanish-language discussions. For children, one of the most popular events this year was when a nature center brought in several special animals. Delaware Library also has a program to mail a free book to families with young children each month. The goal is to provide children with a large book collection in their home without having to pay for it themselves. In some communities, libraries are where people access social services. Wheaton Library, Maryland’s new public library, holds job fairs and partners with local organizations to help families get health insurance. People who cannot afford to buy their own laptop computers can borrow one from the library. Besides, many libraries have book stores where visitors can buy new and used books. The money raised goes back to supporting the libraries.

66．Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share my thoughts on the “Living Well on Campus” campaign, which aims to create a healthy, low-carbon campus atmosphere for every student.
A healthy lifestyle and green living are of great significance. First, they boost our physical and mental well-being, helping us stay energetic and focused on study. Besides, they help promote sustainable development, which is crucial for both the campus and the world. For me, I stick to a regular routine, take daily exercise and keep a balanced diet to stay healthy.
I sincerely call on all classmates to take action. Only by joint efforts can we build a more vibrant and eco-friendly campus that we all love.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
67．Paragraph 1:
As Tom hesitated, his dad placed a firm hand on his shoulder. Looking at Tom, his dad said, “Remember the watch It still works well through hard times. We’re just like it.” Tom listened intently. His dad’s words deeply inspired him. The following hours witnessed his struggle and perseverance. Ignoring the pouring rain and the slippery slope, he made every effort to pedal his bike. With mud splashing onto their clothes, they kept going, encouraging each other all the way. Despite the tiredness, they were getting closer to the top of the mountain.Paragraph 2:
Gradually, the rain stopped and they arrived at the top of the mountain. The moment they reached the peak, a beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky. The scenery around them was breathtaking. Tom’s dad looked at him with pride, saying, “You did an amazing job, son! I’m so proud of you.” Hearing this, Tom felt the exhaustion from riding his bike was replaced by a sense of excitement and satisfaction. They stood there, immersed in the splendid view. From this unforgettable adventure, Tom realized that it was the simple watch that had helped him become stronger.
