If there’s one sound which represents everything there is to fall in love with on safari (观兽旅行), it’s the roar of a lion at nightfall. I heard it one evening in the Qwabi Private Game Reserve, where the Waterberg mountains spill outward like an unfolding story.
We’d just watched a remarkable stand-off: lionesses baring teeth and muscle to a dominant male who’d wandered too close. The roars came first, then a sudden, striking charge. Paws (爪子) flew and their breath hung in the air over the grasslands, before the male eventually turned and dropped to the ground in frustration. It was pure theatre, to which we had front-row seats.
The Waterberg is a place of quiet success. A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2001, this 654, 000-hectare region is one of South Africa’s best-kept safari secrets. It’s a region where conservation feels like a lived value. Thanks to collaboration between private reserves, landowners and anti-poaching units, the region has recorded some of the lowest rhino poaching statistics in the country.
Head guide Damien Fourie was extensive in his knowledge and boyishly excited about every sight and sound. After careful tracking, we came across a group of lions resting beneath a thorn tree, their bodies exposed only by the swinging of a tail. And when we spotted a two-week-old white rhino walking unsteadily beside its mother later on the drive, he was as thrilled as we were.
Still, even if you see nothing but sky and silence, the Waterberg delivers. On our final morning, after a night of rain, I skipped the game drive in favor of a coffee on the deck. I watched the steam rise as the morning sun warmed the valley. The end of my time in the bush came with no distant lion roars, no whispering packs, no newborn rhino. Not every safari needs a drumroll ending. Sometimes, a slow, misty morning and a quiet deck tick all the boxes.
24. What did the author witness about the lions
A. Their playful race. B. Their staged show.
C. Their fierce conflict. D. Their hunting attempt.
25. What do the underlined words “a lived value” in paragraph 3 mean
A. A key concept. B. A public image.
C. An ignored idea. D. An active practice
26. Which of the following best describes Damien
A. Calm and distant. B. Informed and passionate.
C. Dynamic and creative. D. Adventurous and visionary.
27. What does the author think of the safari
A. It displayed racial harmony. B. It had a disappointing ending.
C. It revealed why she loved nature. D. It satisfied what she could hope for.
C
Beneath the Pacific lies the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ), where tens of billions of polymetallic nodules (多金属结核) are packed with cobalt (钴). Seabed-mining companies promote them as “a battery in a rock” and “the easiest way to solve climate change.” They claim that those nodules can provide metals for 4.8 billion electric vehicles.
Yet this promise threatens a biological treasure. Marine (海洋的) biologists reveal the CCZ shelters over 5,000 unique species in the darkness. The extensive mining of cobalt may lead to the loss of biodiversity. A company claimed to have found a solution to minimize the damage to the ecology and has already trialed a 25-ton collector robot designed to harvest these nodules. However, a 2023 study shows it can cause permanent destruction in the area.
Commercial mining is not yet permitted in international waters. The International Seabed Authority (ISA) is still determining how, and under what conditions, mining should be allowed. After 28 years of debate, its 168 member states still lack formal agreement. While companies advocate using nodule-collecting robots, 437 scientists from 44 countries demand an immediate stop.ISA studies confirm that just 10% mining of the CCZ may wipe out 50% of its species.
Nor is it certain that cobalt mining will even be all that important in car-battery technology. Many battery companies are trying to recycle cobalt from spent batteries. In March, several major European carmakers jointly stated that they would not buy any metals produced from deep-sea mining before the environmental risks are “completely understood”. Meanwhile, several Chinese electric vehicle producers have already made the switch, recycling up to 95% of metals from used batteries. “Why rush to mine the ocean for metals becoming outdated ” said battery expert Gavin Harper.
On June 8, 21 marine scientists from 8 universities finished a six-week research in the CCZ and packed up seafloor samples to take back to their labs for further analysis. “An assessment of the mining’s impact will take years of research,” says Andrew from Edinburgh. “I’m trying to get the best environmental data. And then it’s up to society to make the decision to go ahead.”
28. Why are the nodules called “a battery in a rock”
A. They contain valuable metals.
B. They have recharging qualities.
C. They own battery-like structures.
D. They generate renewable power.
29. What can be inferred about the ISA
A. It prioritizes economic interests.
B. It is guarded about seabed mining.
C. It opposes commercial operations.
D. It requires more technical support.
30. What does the author want to illustrate in Paragraph 4
A. Deep-sea mining meets demands.
B. Carmakers reuse battery materials.
C. Battery recycling needs promoting.
D. Seabed mining for cobalt can wait.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Marine Mining, a Green Solution
B. Cobalt, the Future of Batteries
C. Ocean Metals, an Ocean Risk
D. CCZ, the Treasure Unknown
D
Left-handed people, making up only about one in ten of the population, often face challenges in a world designed for right-handers. However, they are over-represented in certain one-on-one sports like fencing (击剑) and table tennis.
The conventional explanation for this is that the scarcity of lefties means right-handed athletes lack familiarity with them as opponents. Nevertheless, Dr. Tim Simon, a researcher in Italy, suspected that left-handers might have a natural-born advantage in these sports. To test his idea, Dr. Simon studied the performance of top athletes in badminton, table tennis, tennis and three types of fencing for over a decade. He reasoned that if the advantage was only due to unfamiliarity, it would decrease at the highest levels of competition, where players would be wise to lefties’ tricks. However, if it was an inborn factor, the advantage might actually increase.
His research revealed an interesting pattern. In foil (花剑) and épée fencing (重剑), and table tennis, there was indeed an increase in left-handedness at the summit. For example, 18% of the top 200 male epee fencers and 23% of the top male foil fencers were lefties, but that went up to 28% and 31% respectively when only the top 100 were considered. The other three sports, however, did not show this effect.
Dr. Simon suggests this difference comes from how left-handed people’s brains work. He believes their brains are especially good at processing visual, spatial and timing information and generating quick responses, which is crucial for those rapid-action sports such as foil and épée fencing. Table tennis requires similar skillfulness. Sabre fencing (佩剑), by contrast, involves larger swinging movements similar to those employed in tennis and badminton.
Even tiny differences in brain activity can make a huge impact at the highest level, where “being a split second faster than an opponent separates victory from defeat”. This research helps us understand that individual differences, even minute ones, can lead to unique strengths and successes.
32. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “scarcity” in paragraph 2
A. Equality. B. Innocence. C. Rarity. D. Imbalance.
33. What did Simon’s experiment seek to distinguish between
A. Different athletes’ tricks. B. Two sources of advantage.
C. Top players’ performance. D. The impacts of unfamiliarity.
34. What do the statistics in paragraph 3 imply
A. Left-handers favor specific fencing styles.
B. A higher proportion of athletic left-handers.
C. The variations among different fencing events.
D. Lefties have an edge in certain top-level sports.
35. According to Dr. Simon, what accounts for lefties’ sport-specific excellence
A. Their unique brain structure. B. Their superior technical skills.
C. Their swifter brain processing. D. Their special movement patterns.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Nowadays, many people turn to the Internet for medical advice when they notice signs of illness. This is understandable as seeing a doctor can be time-consuming and costly unless it’s a serious health concern. ___36___ Often, the answer is: not really.
Medicine is complex. ___37___ For instance, the cause of a cough in a healthy 25-year-old might be different from that in a 65-year-old smoker. Yet, they might find the same search results. People may also not know the exact terms to search for. A search for “bloating (腹胀)” might suggest eating more slowly or avoiding dairy products, which can help if bloating is from too much air, but not so if it’s from fluid (液体) build-up. Only after seeing a doctor and undergoing a physical examination would it be identified as “ascites (腹腔积水)”.
___38___ Many articles are written intentionally to make money or promote specific agendas, not to give accurate advice. In fact, only a small part of the health information available online is created with the reader’s best interests in mind.
Fortunately, a few strategies can help us find reliable medical information. First, check the author and website. ___39___ Government agencies are also trustworthy and offer regularly updated information.
Besides, be careful if a website recommends a specific medication or procedure, especially if it has large ads for that treatment. ___40___
By following these tips, we can improve our chances of finding useful, accurate, and objective health information.
A. So is this trend bound to continue
B. But is online medical advice actually reliable
C. These pages may be created by profit-driven companies.
D. An even bigger issue is the rise of medical misinformation.
E. Online articles often fail to consider each person’s unique situation.
F. Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to figure out a website’s intentions.
G. Reliable sources are usually written by doctors or hosted on trusted sites.

May had just finished gluing two eyes onto her new craft (手工艺品) when Mom walked into her room. “Wow, an impressive Chinese dragon! Will that be keeping you company tomorrow ” Mom asked with a smile. May’s stomach tightened. Tomorrow was her first day at a new school. Her family had just moved from China to this new country over the summer.
Seeing the worry on May’s face, Mom added, “New-school nerves, right I bet you’ll make all kinds of friends just by being you.” She kissed the top of May’s head before leaving the room. As May packed her backpack, she thought about Mom’s words. She hoped Mom was right.
The next morning, she decided to bring Longlong, her handmade Chinese dragon, to school. Throughout the morning, it helped to know Longlong was nearby. May found the courage to get through hellos and small talks without turning bright red.
Everything was going fine—until she checked her bag after the break. Longlong was missing! Her confidence disappeared. And now it was lunchtime. How could she face a room full of kids she didn’t know As her class lined up outside the lunchroom, May busied herself by reading the posters on the wall. One caught her eye:
Want to Join an After School Club
Sign up by Friday!
Chess, Math, Cooking, Drama, Kickball…
OR
See Mrs. Miller in Room 301, Teaching Building B with New Ideas!
Mom had told May clubs could be a way to make friends with kids who shared her interests. But none of these clubs seemed quite right.
Just then, a voice called, “Hey, you! In the red shirt!” May turned. A girl walked up and handed her Longlong, saying it had fallen from her backpack. She introduced herself as Olivia, a student from Mrs. Miller’s class. May thanked her and felt braver as she held Longlong again. When Olivia learned that May had made it herself, she said she also liked crafts and asked if May could teach her.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
“Sure! Want to meet here after school ” May asked.

【答案】范文：
Dear Linda,
Last Friday, I took part in a smart farm study tour organized by our school, and I can’t wait to share this enlightening experience with you!
At the farm, we stepped into a futuristic scene: drones spraying crops with precision, sensors sending live soil data to a tablet, and a fully automated greenhouse that looked like a high-tech plant lab. I was lucky to operate the temperature control system like a real “tech farmer”. Even more exciting was the strawberry-picking robot, which carefully identified and picked the ripe berries using cameras and AI. I watched in awe, marveling at how wonderfully technology and farming can work together.
This activity truly opened my eyes, not only providing a deep insight into smart farming, but also exposing me to the charm of cutting-edge technology. I really hope you can visit the smart farm someday.
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】“Sure! Want to meet here after school ” May asked. Olivia’s face lit up with excitement. “That would be awesome!” she replied. The two girls started chatting animatedly about all the craft ideas they had, like making friendship bracelets and paper lanterns. As they talked, May felt a sense of ease she hadn't felt all day. When the line started moving into the lunchroom, they sat together, still engrossed in their conversation about crafts.
May got a new idea and she decided to have a talk with Mrs. Miller. After lunch, she made her way to Room 301 in Teaching Building B. She walked in nervously but when she saw Mrs. Miller’s warm smile, her courage grew. May explained her love for crafts and how she hoped to start a craft club. Mrs. Miller was delighted and said it was a wonderful idea. With Mrs. Miller’s support, May couldn't wait to tell Olivia and start their very own craft club, looking forward to making more friends who shared their passion.
