Dear Citizens,
Plastics are produced from natural materials like oil and plant minerals, yet the resulting material is entirely unnatural. This non-biodegradable substance has spread to every corner of the globe — from the deep sea to the Antarctic, and even into our bodies.
Every piece of plastic ever made survives in some form, with most eventually breaking down into microplastics: fragments (碎片) smaller than 5 millimeters, invisible to the unaided eye. Scientists estimate that the upper oceans alone contain 24.4 trillion small microplastic pieces.
Microplastics are divided into primary and secondary. Primary microplastics are intentionally produced in tiny form, while secondary microplastics result from the environmental breakdown of larger plastic items. The main types include: Types of microplastics
1 Fibers These thin, thread-like (丝状的) plastics come from clothing and cigarette ends. One of the main ways these fibers enter lakes is through washing machines. 2 Microbeads These tiny plastic balls are often added to personal care products but are difficult to remove from wastewater due to their small size. 3 Fragments When a larger piece of plastic breaks down due to sunlight and weathering, it becomes smaller microplastic fragments.
4 Nurdles (小球) Small plastic pieces produced to make larger products, escape into lakes and oceans during transportation. 5 Foam Used as packing protection in delivery boxes, this soft product can be broken down easily into microplastics.
How long do common plastic items take to break down
Plastic bags Cigarette ends Coffee cups Bottles Toothbrushes Fishing lines Can holders Straws
20 years 5 years 30 years 450 years 500 years 600 years 400 years 200 years
We therefore urge everyone to:
1. Reduce the use of single-use plastics.
2. Choose clothing made from natural fibers.
3. Participate in plastic waste sorting and recycling.
4. Select personal care products without microbeads.
Protecting our planet begins with conscious daily choices.

Zhang Hongjun once spent his days on noisy construction sites in Shanghai, far from his rural hometown in Fujian province. For over a decade, his life followed a common path: long hours of labor, low pay, and the loneliness of being a migrant worker in a vast city. He dreamed of a change but saw few opportunities back home.
A visit became a turning point. Stuck in his village, Zhang noticed something new. The roads were paved, internet signals were strong, and the local government was offering support to those willing to start businesses. The beautiful mountains and fresh air, once taken for granted, now seemed full of potential. An idea began to form: what if he could build a future here, not just make a living there
Using his savings and a small government grant, Zhang took a daring step. He transformed his family’s old, empty house into a modern café, a place where city visitors could enjoy coffee while viewing the terraced fields. At first, neighbors were puzzled. “Who will come to the mountains for coffee ” they asked. Zhang persisted, learning about coffee beans and design online.
Today, “Mountain Cloud Café” is more than a coffee shop. It’s a window for his village. Tourists come on weekends, and through his café, they discover and buy local specialties like mountain tea and dried fruits. Zhang has hired two local women, providing them with stable income. More importantly, his success has sparked a conversation. A few other young people, who once thought leaving was the only option, are now asking, “Could I come back too ”
“My dream isn’t huge,” Zhang says, looking at the lively scene outside. “I just want our home to thrive, so that our children might have a choice to stay.” His journey from construction site to café owner paints a picture of modern rural China — one where returning wings bring new life.
4. Which of the following best describes Zhang’s early life as a migrant worker
A．Relaxed and secure. B．Disconnected but satisfied.
C．Lonely and unfulfilled. D．Stressful but meaningful.
5. Why did Zhang return and start his Café business

C．He was invited by the local government.
D．He found new changes and support in his village.
6. What can we learn about Mountain Cloud Café
A．It has helped develop the village.
B．It features providing modern coffee.
C．It mainly sells coffee to young villagers.
D．It is well received from beginning to end.
7. What can be the most suitable title for the text
A．A New Trend of City Tourism
B．The Importance of Local Specialties
C．From Migrant Worker to Café Owner
D．Ways to Run a Successful Country Café

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 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.
8. 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.
9. 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.
10. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．Risking. B．Preserving. C．Shifting. D．Boosting.
11. 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
When an AI-generated painting won a major art competition in 2022, the art world was thrown into fierce debate: can art created by artificial intelligence be considered “real art”, or is it just a technical trick with no true creativity Three years on, the debate has not faded. Instead, it has evolved into a deeper discussion about the nature of art, creativity and human expression in the digital age.
On one side of the argument are traditional artists and critics who insist that art is a human experience, deeply rooted in emotion, personal struggle and subjective interpretation. They argue that AI cannot create art because it lacks consciousness. Though it can generate images based on millions of existing artworks, it cannot feel joy, sorrow, or inspiration, nor can it express a unique personal vision. A famous oil painter put it directly, “AI painting is like a parrot repeating words — it can copy form, but it cannot understand meaning.” These critics also warn that AI art risks devaluing human creativity, as anyone can generate a “painting” with a few clicks, making the years of training and practice required for human artists seem meaningless.
On the other side are digital artists, tech experts and some contemporary art curators (馆长) who believe AI is just a new tool for artistic creation, no different from the paintbrush or the camera when they were first invented. They point out that all art is built on inspiration from the past. Human artists learn from masterpieces, just as AI learns from existing works. What matters, they argue, is not who or what creates the art, but the intention behind it and the reaction it evokes in the viewer. Many AI artists spend months adjusting AI models, choosing themes, and adjusting details to express their ideas. This process, they say, is no less creative than mixing paint on a canvas. Some curators even note that AI art has opened up new possibilities for art, allowing people with no traditional art training to express their creativity and making art more accessible to the public.
The truth, perhaps, lies somewhere in the middle. AI is not a replacement for human artists, nor is it a meaningless technical toy. It is a new medium that challenges us to rethink what art is and what it can be. As one art scholar wrote, “Creativity is not about the tool; it is about the mind that uses the tool. Whether the mind is human or artificial, the art it creates deserves to be judged on its own merits (优点), not its origin.”
12. Why does the author mention the 2022 AI painting competition incident
A．To inform the reader of the news. B．To introduce the topic.
C．To explain what is AI painting. D．To make a conclusion.
13. Why do traditional artists refuse AI paintings
A．They don’t have sufficient training.
B．They copy too many existing artworks.
C．They lack real feelings and personal creativity.
D．They are produced too quickly with simple clicks.
14. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．Support for AI as an art tool.
B．How AI learns from old works.
C．The tough creation process of AI artists.
D．AI artists are better than traditional artists.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards AI art
A．Critical. B．Doubtful. C．Optimistic. D．Neutral.

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。
From the moment humankind first closed its eyes and slipped into the shifting landscapes of sleep, dreams have haunted (萦绕) and fascinated us. At night, images rise uninvited: loved ones long gone, gods who speak in riddles, beasts both feared and admired, and journeys across impossible places. 16 They were messages, and visions — a secret language whispered by the universe to the soul.
In ancient China, the Zhou Li (Rites of Zhou) and other classical texts describe dream interpretation as a means to predict the future. Dreams were believed to reveal disturbances in the balance of yin and yang, or it could signal harmony restored. For example, a dream of flowing water might symbolize life’s continuity. 17
One of the most famous dream passages in Chinese philosophy comes from Zhuangzi. He once dreamed he was a butterfly. Upon waking, he questioned whether he was a man who dreamed he was a butterfly or a butterfly now dreaming he was a man. 18 It vividly captured the Chinese view of dreams as a space which is a mix of reality and illusion (错觉).
19 Researchers in neuroscience explain dreams as patterns of brain activity, memory processing, and emotional regulation. REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, where most vivid dreaming occurs, is now understood as crucial for learning and psychological balance. Sigmund Freud suggested dreams were wish-fulfillments; Carl Jung saw them as messages from the collective unconscious.
Though modernity explains dreams with science, it cannot remove their poetic charm. We are still dreamers, still seekers, still interpreters of the night’s riddles. 20 We walk with gods, with ancestors, with the timeless mysteries of existence.
A．This dream has been retold for centuries.
B．Likewise, broken objects could warn of trouble.
C．To the ancients, dreams were never meaningless.
D．How dreams are interpreted varies from culture to culture.
E．Today, science throws light on the distinct roles of dreams.
F．The ancients remind us that even in sleep, we are not alone.
G．Dreams are inspirations that prepare us for real-life challenges.

In China, where career success is commonly linked to strong educational backgrounds, the recent achievements of Zhang Xue- 36 (found) of ZXMOTO-stand out even more strikingly.
At merely 39, Zhang, a middle school dropout, has gone from a repair shop apprentice to a figure rewriting China’s motorsport history, 37 one of his motorcycles securing two victories at the Portuguese round of the Superbike World Championship (WSBK) a week ago, overthrowing decades of European 38 Japanese dominance.
In a race 39 every tenth of a second counts, the ZXMOTO motorcycle thundered past the finish line, 40 (leave) its nearest rival nearly four seconds behind.
The feat went viral on the Chinese social media platform Weibo, racking up more than 50 million 41 (view) in just one week. Yet the sensation was about more than the victory itself; it was about the man who made it all happen.
While many have marveled at Zhang’s command of the machine, a skill honed from humble beginnings, his story has sparked online discussions about the growing importance of practical expertise, 42 very kind that vocational education seeks to cultivate, in China’s 43 (rapid) evolving economy.
Back in his teens, Zhang 44 (start) his career from a repair shop, where he often immersed himself in engines, his hands slick with grease. By 22, he could assemble an engine blindfolded in less than an hour on a television show.
That apprenticeship gave him insights no 45 (engineer) degree could. He learned every way a motorcycle could break down.

On a warm sunny day in the yard, a small sound came from the center of a flower. Out of the colorful flowers popped a little bee.
Cho moved back in fear and shouted to her friend Mateo, “Watch out! It might hurt you!” She waved her hands to shoo the tiny creature away. As a kid, Cho always thought bees were just annoying troubles that brought nothing but stings (叮咬).
But Mateo, whose grandpa was known as the “Beeman,” shook his head. He remembered his grandpa’s words: “When you help a bee, you are actually helping your own future dinner.” So he explained softly to Cho, “Bees aren’t here to hurt us. They pollinate (授粉) one-third of the food we eat. Without their hard work, our garden wouldn’t grow any sunflowers, apples, or peas.” Thinking the words over, Cho nodded in agreement.
The two looked at the tiny creature with respect, knowing that every bee was essential to the world. However, the bee seemed to be in deep trouble. It stayed still on a flower, whose legs were trembling. It was simply too tired or too weak to fly. They quickly mixed a spoonful of sugar water to feed it, hoping to give the bee some energy. Moments later, it still rested on the flower, shaking and unable to move its tiny wings.
Determined to save it, the two friends decided to make Mateo’s balcony (阳台) a heaven for it and other bees. They gathered some plastic bottles and other materials, planning to build a “Bee Hotel.” They hoped such a shelter would provide safe cells for bees.
But before they could begin, the sky turned grey, and a strong wind began to blow. With the storm approaching fast, the materials were still lying all around on the balcony. The two friends knew they had to act fast as the first raindrops began to fall.注意：

My Views on Online Learning
Online learning has become increasingly popular in the digital age. In my opinion, it is a useful supplement to traditional classroom study.
Firstly, it breaks the limits of time and space. We can access abundant learning resources and take courses anytime and anywhere. Secondly, various online courses make learning more interesting and flexible. However, we may easily get distracted without teachers' supervision. Therefore, we should develop self-discipline while enjoying the convenience it brings.

Mateo and Cho hurried to build the "Bee Hotel". The wind blew fiercely and raindrops kept falling. They worked quickly to sort out plastic bottles and fix them firmly on the balcony. They also placed the weak bee inside the shelter and put sugar water beside it. Despite being soaked by rain, they finished the small shelter before the heavy rain poured down. They felt relieved that the bee could stay safe through the storm.
The next morning, the sun rose over the balcony. The storm had passed completely. To their joy, the little bee fluttered its wings and flew around the Bee Hotel. Soon several other bees came and settled in the shelter. Cho and Mateo smiled happily. They learned that small kindness could bring great warmth to little creatures. From then on, they took good care of the Bee Hotel and became real protectors of bees.
