Composting (堆肥制造) at Home
What Is Composting
Composting is the managed, oxygen-requiring biological decomposition of organic materials by microorganisms. Organic (carbon-based) materials include grasses, leaves, yard and tree cuttings, and food waste. The end product is compost, a soil conditioner that can provide nutrients to plants. Microorganisms feed on the materials added to the compost pile during composting. They use carbon and nitrogen (氮) to grow and reproduce, water to digest materials, and oxygen to breathe.
Why Is Composting at Home Important
Composting is nature’s way of recycling. We can get a beneficial, value-added soil conditioner and use it to protect the environment.
What to Add to a Backyard Compost Pile
1. What do we know about composting
A．It needs microorganisms’ involvement. B．It starts with a special soil conditioner.
C．It breaks down waste with carbon. D．It takes place without oxygen.
2. What can compost help us do
A．Store carbon in the air. B．Prevent flooding.
C．Improve poor soil. D．Reduce food waste.
3. How much carbon material is needed to build a 200 kg compost pile
A．180 kg. B．120 kg. C．60 kg. D．20 kg.
B
My wife, Hannah, and I don’t usually keep houseplants. But after my diagnosis with brain cancer, I came to love the idea of having something new and green around where I spent much of the day.
The brain cancer limited my ability to walk, and the treatment left me tired, making it hard for me to finish everyday tasks. As a doctor, I was used to being the one who provided care, not the one who received it. The enormous change left me feeling unsettled. Caring for the plant provided me with meaningful satisfaction when I often felt useless.
Over the next few months, I recovered from surgery. Even after I returned to work, I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it had nearly doubled in height and its leaves were shiny and lush (茂盛的). Then, mysteriously, it began to show signs of deterioration. No matter what I did, the leaves kept browning and dropping to the floor. I grew more and more frustrated and uneasy.
I couldn’t shake the feeling that the plant had become a symbol of my own poor health. Hannah always thought about what I needed and recognized that the growing plant had offered me comfort and hope. To lessen my anxiety, she began to transplant the plant to a larger pot. Hannah cared for me and the plant almost around the clock, preparing meals and watering on schedule without rest. Even when both the plant and I were at our weakest, she never gave up.
When my tumour (肿瘤) unavoidably returned, I felt peaceful and calm. The plant wasn’t there to live forever but to help me appreciate each moment — the way sunlight touched its leaves, the quiet times with Hannah, the hope we shared when transplanting it. True healing isn’t about beating death but about finding meaning in ordinary things.
That’s what makes life precious — not counting days, but making each day count.
4. Why did the author decide to keep a houseplant after his diagnosis
A．To bring more greenery into his home.
B．To follow a hobby suggested by his wife.
C．To find a sense of fulfillment during his illness.
D．To avoid thinking about his medical condition.
5. How did the author feel when the plant began to deteriorate
A．Calm and accepting. B．Indifferent and detached.
C．Increasingly worried and upset. D．Inspired to try new care methods.
6. Why did Hannah transplant the plant into a larger pot
A．To encourage the plant to grow faster.
B．To follow a gardening tip she had read.
C．Because the plant had grown too tall for its old pot.
D．To reduce the author’s anxiety about the plant’s decline.
7. What message does the story mainly convey
A．Recovery requires unwavering hope. B．Illness can be overcome with proper care.
C．Plants are powerful symbols of human life. D．Meaning in life is found in ordinary moments.
C
The language magazine Yaowen Jiaozi has released the Top Ten Chinese Buzzwords of 2025. The word that ranked first is “renxing”, which means “resilience”.
In recent years, China has faced many challenges and global business has become less stable. In response to this, China has continued to open up its markets and improve its industries, showing great resilience. The word is used not only for the country and the economy, but also for people who stay strong and keep going when life becomes difficult.
The second buzzword is “jushen zhineng”, or “embodied intelligence”. It refers to intelligent systems — such as humanoid robots (人形机器人) — that learn through interaction with their physical environment. This term shows that the AI era has fully arrived, bringing new technologies and new vocabulary into everyday life.
Ranked third is “Suchao”, short for the Jiangsu City Football League. Unlike professional leagues, Suchao is made up of amateur players such as office workers, students, and small business owners. Its strong local spirit and lively atmosphere have attracted huge audiences, making it one of the most influential grassroots sports events of 2025.
Another term on this year’s list is “guzi (谷子)”, adapted from the English word “goods”. It is widely used by young people to describe anime and gaming products. The rise of “guzi” reflects new forms of youth culture and new consumption trends in China.
Annual buzzwords act as a mirror of society. They record economic development, technological progress, cultural trends, and emotional needs. From “renxing” to “jushen zhineng”, from grassroots sports to new consumer habits, these buzzwords show how China remains energetic and adaptable in a fast-changing world. They also reveal how ordinary people continue seeking stability, creativity, and authenticity (真实性) in their lives.
8. What does the top buzzword “renxing” primarily reflect
A．The enduring strength shown by both the country and its people.
B．A decline in the need for international cooperation.
C．A national strategy for economic planning.
D．The stability achieved in global business.
9. What makes “Suchao” a significant event
A．Its unique local spirit and widespread popularity among amateur participants.
B．Its role in promoting international football stars.
C．Its government funding and national scale.
D．Its high salaries for professional athletes.
10. What is the origin of the youth term “guzi”
A．A traditional Chinese term revived by online communities.
B．An adapted version of an English word for fan products.
C．A new word created by social media influencers.
D．A technical term from the gaming industry.
11. According to the article, what is the social function of annual buzzwords
A．They define official economic policies. B．They mainly track changes in internet slang.
C．They predict which technologies will succeed. D．They mirror developments and values in society.
D
Christmas stockings may contain more surprises than usual this year, as children open presents that can talk back. Toymakers in China have declared 2025 the year of artificial intelligence (AI) and are producing robots and teddies that can teach, play and tell stories.
In work and play, AI is reshaping childhood. It promises every child the kind of upbringing previously available only to the rich, with private tutors, personalized courses and tailored entertainment. A childhood fit for a king could become universal. Technology is creating new forms of fun, too. Hollywood may dismiss AI videos as low-quality stuff, but young people are consuming them and making their own.
There are well-publicized risks in letting children loose on an evolving technology. Yet childhood may be disrupted most radically by things that AI does when it is behaving as intended. The technology quickly learns what its master likes — and shows more of it. Social-media feeds have already created echo chambers (回声室) where people see only views they agree with. Not only does this destroy serendipity. A favorites-only diet means a child need never learn to tolerate something unfamiliar.
One-sided relationships with chatbots present a similar risk. AI companions that never criticize, nor share feelings of their own, are a poor preparation for dealing with imperfect humans. Yes-bots threaten to create children not used to taking turns, who grow up into colleagues unable to compromise and partners unfamiliar with the give-and-take required in a relationship.
It is a future filled with opportunities and hidden traps. AI shows undeniable potential to improve education and enrich entertainment. It may one day let every child live like royalty. But as real kings often discover, a specially designed upbringing can also be a lonely and atomized one. The truly privileged may be those whose parents and teachers know when to turn it off.
12. What can we infer from paragraph 2 about AI
A．It challenges the standards of traditional industries.
B．It makes entertainment more exciting and diverse.
C．It aims to make all children’s experiences luxurious.
D．It opens access to high-quality nurturing for all.
13. What does the underlined word “serendipity” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Treasure. B．Surprise. C．Tradition. D．Motivation.
14. What is the main danger of “Yes-bots” in paragraph 4
A．They leave children without key social skills. B．They lower children’s interest in real social life.
C．They give children inaccurate information. D．They cost too much for average families.
15. Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Talking Toys: Risks in AI Companionship
B．AI Revolution: Technology’s Total Transformation
C．Reshaped Childhood: Promise and Risk of AI
D．A Personalized tutor: AI’s Educational Promise

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
First impressions can be harsh. One mistake, and you might feel like you’ll forever be seen as an idiot (笨蛋) in someone’s eyes. 16 .___________
Making a first impression is like trying to keep a door open with your foot. Many encounters with strangers are brief and may never happen again. Sometimes that can be a blessing: If the person you meet doesn’t care to remember you, you’ll quickly fade into the crowd of strangers in their mind, avoiding any negative or lasting impression. 17______ — imagine striking up a conversation with someone interesting only to part ways before exchanging contact information.
18 — but not something foolish. Make an impression by asking an insightful question or making someone laugh. This means taking risks and avoiding bland (乏味的) small talk; if that’s all you offer, you’ll likely be pushed to the back of their memory, unlikely to be remembered again.
19 And one day you see them looking at you, recalling the time you embarrassed yourself, and they’re walking toward you thinking, “I know you from somewhere…”
In that case, your second impression needs to be better. People will give you a second chance if you give them something to care about. Just because you messed up the first time doesn’t mean you should withdraw and stop being interesting. 20 : Listen well, ask relevant questions, smile often, tell a joke, and share what you care about.
A．If anything, you should try harder
B．Other times, it can be disappointing
C．To stay in their mind, you need to talk more
D．However, I believe reality is kinder than that
E．But what if you messed up your first impression
F．What if your first impression was less than perfect
G．To avoid being forgotten, you need to do something memorable

47. 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。
Jack was always on his smartphone, scrolling through social media, playing games and chatting with friends. His mom, Mrs Turner, noticed that his grades had started to drop because he was spending too much time on his smartphone instead of focusing on his schoolwork. She had tried talking to him about it many times, but Jack didn’t listen. She knew she had to do something to help him, so one evening, she quietly took his smartphone and hid it in a drawer. She knew Jack would be upset, but she hoped it would help him get back on track with his studies.
The next morning, Jack rushed to find his smartphone but couldn’t find it anywhere. He searched his room, the kitchen, and even the living room, but it was gone. He felt depressed and angry. “Where is my smartphone ” he whispered. When he went downstairs for breakfast, his mom gave him a calm smile. “I think you might have misplaced it,” she said. Jack was puzzled but didn’t say anything. He left for school, feeling more upset than usual.
At school, Jack’s mind kept wandering to his smartphone. He couldn’t concentrate on his lessons, and he felt a little lost without it. During lunch, he found something unusual in his schoolbag. It was a small, handwritten card from his mom. It read, “Jack, I know it’s hard, but you’re capable of doing great things. Stay focused, work hard, and the results will follow. I believe in you.” Jack smiled to himself. He realized that his mom was only trying to help him, not punish him.
He realized that he had been wasting time, and without his smartphone, he could actually pay more attention to his schoolwork. He felt grateful for his mom’s action, even though it had upset him at first.
Paragraph 1:
After that, Jack began to feel more focused. __________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Over the next few weeks, Jack’s grades started to improve. __________________________________________________________________________

第二节 读后续写（参考范文）
Paragraph 1:
After that, Jack began to feel more focused. He threw himself into his studies wholeheartedly. He listened carefully in class, took detailed notes and actively answered teachers’ questions. After school, he finished his homework efficiently and reviewed what he had learned. Without smartphone distractions, he had plenty of time to sort out his weak subjects and make practical study plans. Gradually, he regained his confidence and even became more willing to communicate with his parents about his school life.
Paragraph 2:
Over the next few weeks, Jack’s grades started to improve. His teachers praised him for his great progress and positive learning attitude. Seeing his remarkable changes, Mrs Turner was greatly relieved and proud of him. Eventually, she gave the smartphone back to Jack. Jack learned to use the phone wisely. He only used it to search for study materials and contact others in need, never indulging in online games or social media again. This experience taught him a valuable lesson: self-discipline is the key to self-improvement.
