Dear Peter,
I’m Li Hua from Class 3, Senior 2. Learning that English Literature Club is
recruiting new members, I’m writing to apply to join it.
As an enthusiastic reader since childhood, I have read numerous classic works
both at home and abroad. I’m particularly fond of English literature, and I often share
my reflections with classmates, which has sharpened my analytical skills. Moreover, I
believe I can contribute to the club with my English communication skills and
teamwork spirit.
If admitted, I would participate actively in club activities. I sincerely hope you
will consider my application.
Yours,
Li Hua

38.【答案】
Several years have passed, but Angela always takes a moment to reflect on the
power of a simple smile. “That moment was a turning point for me,” she said. “It has
1
taught me the importance of kindness and support, even in competitive environments.
And I realized that a simple gesture, like a smile, could make a world of difference to
someone who was feeling nervous and unsure of themselves.” Angela continued to
pursue her passion for piano, participating in more competitions and performances.
Each time she stepped onstage, she remembered the girl’s smile and the confidence it
gave her.
Angela’s experience also inspired her to help others. She began volunteering at
local music schools, offering support to young students. She wanted to be that person
who could offer a smile and a few kind words to a nervous performer. “Looking back,
I believe the girl’s smile was a secret of my success,” said Angela. “It reminds me that
kindness is just as important as talent. I hope to pass on this lesson to others,
encouraging them to support and uplift one another.”

Pedro Soto, a 56-year-old school teacher, had a sore throat, so he went to the
doctor, believing he suffered from an infection by some virus. However, after his
doctors did a blood test, they found it was type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Medicine to get it
under control was immediately recommended, but Soto was determined to try
something different.
Inspired by one of his co-workers whose husband ran the marathon, Soto applied
to the TCS Marathon through an application specifically made for teachers. He had to
share an article in which he spoke about his illness and was ultimately selected for the
team. As he trained and developed a running habit, he received regular blood tests,
and three months later, his blood sugar became normal.
The marathon took place last November. Soto wasn’t able to consistently train
until the beginning of August, because in June, he was also diagnosed (诊断 ) with
Lyme disease. It was also during this time that Soto’s father passed away. Still, he
used his runs as opportunities to release bad feelings and to build his strength back
from being sick.
“For me, it is amazing. It is like a block party, but the block party is the whole
city,” he says. “During the race, you’re pounding for hours, the same joints, the same
bones and muscles. Something’s beginning to feel pain, but the noise of the people
out there, the music, the cheers... everything is louder than your pain.”
Another thing that kept him moving forward was his students. Soto shares that
his students are a motivating factor for him to recover his health. “If I’m sick and don’
t feel good, that is going to affect my instruction in the classroom, my relationship
3
with the students, and eventually the quality of me as a teacher! Teachers get burned
out because sometimes they don’t balance their lives. This TCS Marathon was a great
opportunity for me to balance my life.”
24.Why did Soto take part in the TCS Marathon
A. It was a way to escape from busy work. B. It was specially organized for teachers.
C. He desired an alternative to medicine. D. He hoped to display his physical strength.
25.What happened to Soto before the marathon in November
A.He ran to work through emotions. B.He stuck to training constantly.
C.His blood sugar got abnormal again. D.His family members left him one by one.
26.What do we know about Soto’s students
A.They take him as a role model. B.They play a role in his well-being.
C. They are picky about teachers. D. They help him maintain a work-life
balance.
27.What message does the text deliver
A. Prevention is better than cure.
B. Sports can sometimes work wonders.
C. A teacher’s love is the students’ motivation.
D. Teamwork is fundamental to achieving goals.
C
Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they
tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This
striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the
University of Adelaide.
Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71
published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than
11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to
spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably
absent in acts of donation or tipping.
“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless
effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we
uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other
researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains.
The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for
goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current
cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of
4
cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and
hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically
handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent.
The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers.
“Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might
unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And
policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments,
such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless
methods to lead to overspending.”
Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods,
as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying
these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen
understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits.
28.What has the study found about the cashless effect
A.It exists in acts of donation. B.It weakens with more cash use.
C.It links to the living cost crisis. D.It works in specific consumption.
29.Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis
A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments.
C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies.
30.What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean
A.Risking. B.Preserving. C.Shifting. D.Boosting.
31.What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk
A.They need to be popularized. B.They are developing rapidly.
C.They should be further studied. D.They will affect spending habits.
D
The world’s population will reach 9.5 billion by 2050, and we need more land to
grow food. However, today’s farming uses 70% of the world’s fresh water, makes
water dirty with chemicals, and needs a lot of fossil fuels. What’s worse, there is no
new usable land left for farming.
A good solution is vertical (垂直的 ) farms — growing crops indoors in tall
buildings in cities. These farms use much less water than traditional farming, avoid
droughts and floods, and produce food all year round. They also cut the cost of
moving food and reduce food going bad, as food is sold near where it is grown.
5
Some tested technologies make vertical farms possible. Drip irrigation (滴灌 )
sends water rich in nutrients straight to plant roots, saving a lot of water. Aeroponics
(气培法 ) lets plants grow in air with wet air and nutrients (no soil needed), and
hydroponics (水培法) grows plants in water with nutrients. All these methods work
well indoors.
Cities have good spaces for vertical farms, such as empty land, old buildings or
rooftops. These farms can reuse city wastewater to water crops and burn plant waste
to make electricity. Experts say no new technologies are needed to build good vertical
farms.
Vertical farms can make cities more sustainable: using resources without wasting
them and keeping nature balanced. They create new jobs, offer fresh food, and do less
harm to the planet. The only question is — when will we start building them
32.What is a big problem for farming today
A.Enough land for farming. B.Little fresh water in farming.
C.No population growth. D.No new usable farmland.
33.What can we infer about vertical farms
A.Vertical farms make more food go bad easily.
B.Vertical farms need more fossil fuels to run.
C.Vertical farms can cut down on farming pollution.
D.Vertical farms take up more land than traditional farms.
34.What is the best title for the text
A.Vertical Farms:A Smart Solution for Future Farming.
B.Population Growth:A Big Problem for Food Supply.
C.Traditional Farming:Its High Costs and Wastes.
D.New Irrigation Methods:Saving Water for Crops.
35.What is the author’s attitude towards vertical farms
A.Negative. B.Uncaring. C.Positive. D.Doubtful.

Are you aware that you use body language when communicating with others
What body postures, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements do you usually
use Research has suggested that about 65% of meaning in human communication
comes from non-verbal behavior. 36 . Here are some body language tips to
build more open connections with others.
Smile. The simplest way to start a positive relationship is to smile. When looking
into someone’s eyes, smile as if you see something in their eyes that makes you happy.
37
Personal space. Keep the space open before your upper body. Try not to fold
your arms, put your bag on your lap, hug your bag, or do anything that covers up the
upper front part of your body. 38 . On the other hand, closing the space in
front of you sends the message of “Don’t talk to me. I’m not interested to engage with
anyone”.
Have eye contact. Eye contact helps establish connections and lets other people
know you are listening. 39 . Just look away from time to time to give them
some space.
40 . Wear your emotions on your face. If you feel sad, then express
sadness. If you feel surprised, express surprise. If you feel happy, express happiness.
Don’t keep your emotions inside yourself.
A powerful gesture will show your charm, which will make you more confident.
These tips will help you make more friends and work towards a more connective and
inclusive society.
A.But don’t stare
B.But don’t laugh out loud
C.Be open with your emotions
D.Be aware of what your body is saying
E.Keeping the area open will make you more approachable
F.Sometimes body language even makes up as much as 90%
G.Body language sometimes carries hidden meanings and emotions

was crazy about photography, and Lily, who had a great gift for writing.
At first, our cooperation went 46 . Jake only talked about his cameras
and weekend photos, while Lily showed no 47 and refused to do any
research. I felt 48 and even tried to finish the whole project alone, staying
up late to work on it. But the result was far from satisfactory. My mom 49
me and advised me to make good use of my partners’ talents instead of working alone.

Every year, the world needs more energy. As countries develop and
populations grow, energy demand rises. Historically, coal, oil and gas have been
primary sources, but their use causes 56 (pollute) and climate change.
Luckily, many countries are switching from dirty fossil fuels to clean, green and
renewable energy sources. Fossil fuels like coal and oil release harmful gases, like
carbon dioxide, which add 57 global warming. Plus, these fuels will run
out eventually. Once 58 source has been used up, another must 59
(find), and finding new sources becomes more difficult and expensive over time. With
no emissions or waste, renewable energy sources cause 60 (limit) damage
to the environment. They are renewable because they can be 61 (natural)
replaced and can therefore be consumed without the risk of 62 (use) them
up. Can renewables really be the future of energy Our modern world has been built
on fossil fuels, so it is tough 63 (change) quickly. But China and others use
more renewables. Given the problems of climate change, there is little doubt 64
they will continue to grow. New battery technology, for example, solves the problem
of bringing electricity from 65 (distance) sources to cities. Along with
our being more aware of our energy consumption and waste, a clean and green energy
future is possible and necessary.

In 2020, when she was just 10 years old, Angela Zhao entered her first piano
competition. On the day of the event, each participant had to go up onstage one by
one and perform their piece in front of a panel of judges and an audience. At first,
Angela was excited and confident, as she had been preparing for months, practicing
diligently every day under the guidance of her piano teacher.
However, as her turn approached, doubts began to flood her mind. “What if I
played the wrong notes What if I forgot the notes What if I just mess up ” Angela
remembered thinking.
9
As these worries raced through her mind, Angela watched another girl perform.
The girl played beautifully. Angela couldn’t help but feel kind of jealous y and
admiration. Once the girl finished, she walked off stage to where Angela was
waiting and did something unexpected.
“She looked at me and smiled with a thumb up.” Angela said. The simple
gesture took Angela by surprise. “Her smile made me think that today I'm just right
and I can perform on the stage.”
Encouraged by this act of kindness, Angela took a deep breath and walked out
to the piano. She sat down, closed her eyes for a moment to steady herself, and then
began to play. As her fingers moved over the keys, she felt a sense of calm wash over
her. The notes flowed effortlessly, and she lost herself in the music. When she
finished, Angela looked up and saw her competitor clapping for her, a genuine smile
on her face.
Seeing such a show of support has stuck with Angela over the years. “As a
competitor, she gave me respect and helped a shy girl to face the stage,” Angela said.
If she could talk to that girl again, here’s what Angela would say: “You changed a
