When you rub (摩擦) a balloon on your skin, it produces electricity — a familiar example of charge separation (电荷分离), a process in which opposite charges are separated, creating electric potential. Similarly, raindrops striking a narrow tube create a tiny yet significant burst of energy. Now, researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have tapped into this effect to generate electricity using rain-like droplets.
Conventional hydropower (水力发电) relies on large water flows, which only work in places like rivers. For smaller, slower flows, researchers have explored charge separation. They use a tube to let water flow through it continuously. Charges gather on the surface that the water touches. In this way, researchers can collect charges, but it is far from effective.
To solve this problem, the NUS team built a special device. At both ends of the device — the top of the newly-designed tube (about 2 millimeters in width), and the water-collecting cup at the bottom — electrical wires were placed to harvest charges. First, water is released from a metal needle, forming rain-like droplets. When these droplets enter the tube, their impacts create “plug flow,” in which the water forms mini columns separated by air gaps. This flow is crucial because it allows more surface contact and more time for charges to build up, generating up to 100, 000 times more charge separation than continuous flow. As charged droplets exit the tube and fall into the cup, charges build up in the water, creating an electric current. In tests, four tubes produced enough electricity to power 12 LED lights continuously for 20 seconds.
According to the study’s lead author, this model shows how rain can be used to generate clean electricity effectively and sustainably, especially in rainy places such as Singapore. Its potential is enormous, as it offers an alternative energy source even in cities. Imagine a rain collection device on your roof, producing small amounts of electricity whenever it rains — a small step for a raindrop, but a giant leap for sustainable energy technology.
22．What problem do the NUS researchers aim to solve
A．The difficulty of separating charges. B．The lack of clean electricity sources.
C．The inefficiency of charge harvesting. D．The damage of traditional hydropower.
23．Which of the following best illustrates “plug flow”
A． B． C． D．
24．What is the last paragraph mainly about concerning the model
A．Its potential cost in urban areas. B．Its promising use in green energy.
C．Its complex design for rain power. D．Its practical need for more devices.
25．What is a suitable title for the text
A．Revolutionary Energy from Raindrops B．Urgent Demand for Sustainable Energy
C．Capturing Raindrops through Innovation D．Turning Charge Separation into Electricity
Raindrops are more than a source of fresh water. They carry energy, and scientists have been exploring how to turn that energy into electricity for years. Traditional droplet electricity generators (液滴发电机) often struggle with low output, heavy weight, and limited applicable. A research team has now developed a new solution: allowing the generator to remain on the water surface. This solution cuts the generator’s weight by about 80 percent and lowers cost by about 50 percent while having similar electrical output compared to old systems.
Durability (耐用性) is a major advantage of the new system. Many similar generators see their power output decline over time, but this new system will work well for a long time because of its special materials. To improve durability further, the team used water’s surface stress to design drainage (排水) holes that let water move downward but not upward. This creates a way to remove extra droplets.
“By allowing the generator to remain on the water surface, we’ve unlocked a new strategy for droplet electricity generator that is lightweight, cost-effective, and suitable for broad use,” said Wanlin Guo, a member of the research team. “This opens the door to land-free generator systems that can work alongside renewable technologies like solar and wind.”
The influence of this research goes beyond getting energy from rainfall. Because the generator naturally remains on the water surface, it could support environmental monitoring systems in different kinds of water settings, including technologies for testing water quality, or pollution level. In areas with frequent rain, the technology could offer a source of clean power for local use or even for export to other areas.
Although the laboratory results are encouraging, the researchers emphasize that additional work is necessary before the technology can be used widely. Real raindrops differ in both size and speed, and these differences could affect the generator’s output. Even so, the laboratory results tell us that we have made an important step toward practical applications.
26．What is the main improvement of the new droplet electricity generator
A．It changes the power source. B．It is simpler and more reliable.
C．It has higher power output. D．It is much lighter and cheaper.
27．What extra application of the new system is mentioned in the text
A．Improving old generators. B．Collecting environmental data.
C．Providing drinking water. D．Predicting natural disasters.
28．Why does the author mention “real raindrops differ in both size and speed”
A．To state a research limitation.
B．To explain the energy theory.
C．To compare various rainfalls.
D．To doubt the generator’s design.
29．Which can be the best title for the text
A．A Durable System for Collecting Raindrops
B．The Problems with Old Droplet Generators
C．A New Design of Getting Raindrop Energy
D．The Breakthrough in Water-Based Generators
Picture this: you are in a position where your phone runs out of battery, but you don’t have anywhere to charge it. Well, what if the clothing you were wearing could help you out It’s an option that isn’t as strange as you might think. Now the latest fashion breakthrough is taking “activewear” in an entirely new direction: researchers at Nottingham Trent University have developed a new fabric that can keep small devices juiced.
The prototype (样品) includes 1,200 tiny solar panels, each measuring just 5 by 1.5 millimeters. It can generate 400 milliwatts (毫瓦特) of electrical energy, enough to charge electronic devices.
“Until now very few people have considered their clothing products could be used for charging electronic devices,” explains Theodore Hughes-Riley, an associate professor of Electronic Textiles. “The material which we have developed appears and behaves the same as any ordinary fabric, as it can be washed in a machine. Besides, because the tiny solar cells are made up of silicon, wearers aren’t able to even notice a discrepancy in the fabric’s composition when it is compared to standard clothing.”
Potential products include items like outerwear, backpacks and other carrying bags using the material, all of which could allow wearers to keep their devices charged during the day. “Electronic fabrics really have the potential to change people’s relationship with technology, as this prototype shows how we could do away with charging many devices on the wall,” adds Theodore.
Solar power innovations are key to transitioning (转变) human society from fossil fuel technologies, and are coming into a variety of fields. The European Space Agency, for example, plans to experiment with solar panel systems orbiting above Earth. Since there are no real “days” or “nights” in space, potential solar power generation could be as much as 8 or 9 times greater than what’s currently achievable here on Earth’s surface. As powerful as that may one day be for us, it’s encouraging to know even changes like the composition of our clothing can help facilitate the necessary renewable energy shift for our species.
30．What makes the new fabric special
A．It can produce electricity from sunlight.
B．It can change color in the sun.
C．It is much softer than standard clothing.
D．It can adjust body temperature.
31．What does the underlined word “discrepancy” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Progress. B．Distinction.
C．Similarity. D．Mismatch.
32．How does the innovation impact our relationship with technology according to Theodore
A．By making electronic devices cheaper and cheaper.
B．By increasing our dependence on electronic devices.
C．By making us more aware of our energy consumption.
D．By reducing the demand for fixed charging equipment.
33．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．Solar energy will soon replace fossil fuels.
B．Solar power is more useful in space than on Earth.
C．Small changes can contribute to a renewable energy future.
D．Space exploration is necessary for advancing solar technology.
When I feel like something in my life is out of control, I always depend on the comforting power of organization. 34 One December morning, a good friend of mine brought me a well-made new year calendar as a gift. I hung it in the kitchen, unaware of the connection it would have with my life.
I detailed my entire schedule on that calendar. Every appointment, every visitor, every work meeting — my whole life was arranged clearly on those pages, and it put me at ease. 35 I’d check it every day. My busy schedule seemed manageable with everything written down in black and white.
The wall calendar seemed to have become a part of my life. 36 It was fixed in place and therefore not portable. Then I came up with a more convenient approach: I noted important events in my phone calendar for reminders. I also took pictures of the wall calendar’s pages on my phone, so I had my schedule with me wherever I went.
37 When another new year was approaching, a wall calendar was no longer on my shopping list. I was using my phone calendar just like everyone else, and having my entire personal life on display for anyone passing the kitchen to see made me feel increasingly embarrassed.
But after one or two years, I, somehow, began to miss the calming process of writing my entire month out by hand. There was something comforting and satisfying about seeing a physical calendar, organized and waiting to prove that my schedule wasn’t actually that intense. Not having my day laid out visually robbed me of my peace of mind, I realized. 38
A．Its downside, however, was clear.
B．That seemed confusing for a busy me.
C．How could I ease my schedule anxiety
D．So, the next year, I bought myself another.
E．Modern technology gradually had its place.
F．I once made calendar-like charts to achieve it.
G．Isn’t it a perfect time for it to return this December

I have always been drawn to music and languages, so I signed up for my school’s integrated course on English and guqin culture. Touching a classical Chinese instrument for the first time was 54 truly unique experience. With every pluck and stroke of the strings, I felt a strange yet familiar emotion.
The English part of the course focused on 55 (learn) vocabulary related to the guqin, as well as reading and translating articles about this traditional string instrument. I particularly enjoyed knowing how 56 (choose) the right words and expressions.
But the most special part of the course was the exchange activities with young people from other countries. Delivering a speech confidently on the stage 57 (take) a lot of effort, as I had to pay close attention to my pronunciation, word choice, clarity of expression, body language and how I interacted 58 the audience. I 59 (vivid) remembered standing on the podium, introducing traditional Chinese music and playing the guqin. I felt a strong sense of achievement.
Beyond the formal events, we often continued our conversations long after the activities ended. By overcoming language 60 (obstacle) and looking beyond differences in race and culture, we discovered how much young people around the world valued mutual understanding, inclusivity 61 harmony in diversity.
Nowadays, there are fewer than one thousand well-trained and 62 (competence) guqin players. I believe such experiences also teach us to respect different cultures, 63 is invaluable in our growth.

65．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。
When our school announced the first Traditional Sports Festival, the most anticipated event was the dragon dance competition. My classmates set up a class team right away, and I signed up as a substitute. I’d learned basic dragon dance moves from my grandpa as a kid, but I gave up soon, finding the endless strength and step training too boring. I never thought I’d actually step onto the competition field.
My grandpa was once the lead dragon head holder of our village’s professional dragon dance team, with over 40 years of experience. Before I entered high school, he gave me a mini dragon head model, its handle wrapped with bright red silk. “Dragon dance isn’t just about moves,” he told me. “It’s about your heart, your teamwork, and the inheritance of our culture.” I nodded politely back then, but I never truly understood his words.
Two days before the competition, disaster struck. Our lead dragon head holder, Xiao Ming, twisted his ankle badly during training. His foot swelled up so much that he couldn’t walk normally, let alone hold the heavy dragon head. The whole team fell into panic. The competition was around the corner, and we had no backup for this critical role. Then the captain turned to me, and all my teammates’ eyes fixed on me. My mind went blank—I was just a substitute, with no formal competition experience. I wanted to refuse, but the trust in their eyes, and the mini dragon head in my schoolbag, made me hesitate.
On competition day, Xiao Ming still couldn’t make it. The captain handed me the real, heavy dragon head, with the same bright red silk tied to its handle. “We believe in you,” he said. My teammates gathered around, patting my shoulders and cheering me on. I held the dragon head tightly, feeling the rough wood and soft silk under my fingers, and took a deep breath.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。

【原文】M: Do you remember those strange paintings we saw when we were on holiday last year
W: Yes, they were painted by Picasso. You weren’t impressed, were you
M: No. I expected everything in Paris to be beautiful. If I wanted to see ugly things, I could find some at home in England. I wouldn’t need to go to France.
W: Well, a lot of people like them. In fact, Picasso is one of Spain’s most famous people.
M: I don’t know why. None of the paintings looked like real things.
W: But that was intended. You can love Picasso or hate Picasso, but it is hard not to have an opinion about his work.
M: We can agree on that.
3．B 4．A
【原文】M: Wow, that was some journey.
W: Yeah, I thought we’d never get here. All those delays.
M: Well, it’s nice to be back. Travelling is great, but I’m glad that I’ll be back surrounded by all the familiar things.
W: Well, it’s not quite as comfortable as the room we’ve been in for the past fortnight.
M: No, and all that time not having to cook our own meals was great.
W: Yes, well, it’s over now, back to reality. Come on, let’s get the bags sorted out.

【原文】W: Are you going to Matthew’s leaving party
M: Yes, I’m glad he was promoted. The Chicago office isn’t doing well and he could improve things there.
W: Yes, he will. Are you applying for his job
M: I might. Do you know anyone else who is going for it Is Sylvia going too
W: She knows she doesn’t stand a chance of getting it. She doesn’t have enough experience.
M: But John may well apply.
W: He’s not suitable for that position either. He is struggling to keep up with work. That’s because he is working two jobs to pay his bills. Bob, I think you would be the best person for that position.
M: Thanks for your support, Amber.

M: Children from more than 180,000 families in China can now go on an online tour of ten world-famous museums through online broadcast. The families each need to pay 19.9 yuan for that. In 174 classrooms in Chinese villages, students can watch it for free. Miss Ma is a teacher in a village school in Sichuan. She says the children there have never visited a museum. For some of them, even going to the closest library in town is difficult. The museum project shows how online broadcast can help improve education. The technology has already been widely used for entertainment. However, it is not until recently that it has been used for education. The project has proved to be a success, but there’s still a problem — people haven’t worked out how to make these online tours interesting.
11．C 12．B
【原文】W: Hello, Alfonso, you look really well. What’s new
M: Hey, Maya. My main news is that I want to change jobs next year. I want to have more time for my painting hobby.
W: Roberto said you hoped to buy his house. Is that right
M: Yes, Roberto’s place is much bigger than our home and there’s room for a painting studio. Plus, Kara says she wants to turn the storeroom into an office.
W: Great. How are Kara and the children doing recently
M: Very well.
13．B 14．A
【原文】W: Mr. Craig, we have a variety of vacation package tours for you to look at today. You can go on a wildlife tour in Kenya or take an elephant ride through Vietnam.

W: Good morning, I am Lisa. In today’s edition of Role Models Around Us, our guest is Emily, a 65-year-old grandmother. As you all know, our neighborhood blog Changi Villagers has been a great platform for sharing local news and events. In fact, Emily is the key contributor to it. Not only that, but she also started a new blog called Resources Nearby for residents who want a hand moving heavy furniture or just need a listening ear for their problems. Emily has a great passion for learning. She says it is never too late to learn. She will be launching a new website just for students soon, to help them learn more about topics such as the history of our neighborhood, famous scientists, and the inventions they created. What a role model she is! Now, let’s welcome Emily to talk about her idea for the website.

64． Choosing the right university and major is a crucial decision that shapes a student’s future. A recent survey shows that 51% of students prioritize “interest and ability” when choosing universities and majors. “Scores” and “social demand” both rank second at 33%, while only 3.2% consider “parents’ opinions” a top factor.
In my view, while following one’s passion is crucial, ignoring social demand might lead to challenges in future careers. Parents’ advice, based on their experience, can also provide valuable insights. A balance between personal interest and practical considerations is essential. Therefore, students should strike a balance between their passions and practical factors. Researching job trends and seeking advice from mentors and parents can help ensure thoughtful and informed decisions.
65．范文
Paragraph 1:
I stepped onto the competition field with my teammates. Holding the heavy dragon head with its bright red silk, I calmed down the moment the familiar drumbeat rang out. I followed the moves grandpa had taught me, moving in perfect sync with my teammates. I almost lost balance once while turning, but grandpa’s words about dancing with heart, not just strength, flashed through my mind. I steadied myself quickly, focusing fully on every step and every beat.
Paragraph 2:
When the final drumbeat ended, cheers erupted around. My teammates rushed over, hugging me excitedly — we had won the first prize of the dragon dance competition! Holding the dragon head tightly, I finally understood what grandpa had said about inheritance. It was not only about passing down the traditional moves, but also about the courage to take responsibility and the power of teamwork. That day, I truly grasped the soul of the dragon dance I’d once ignored.
