The journey to Xizang was the realization of a long-held fascination, nurtured during the vibrant Tibetan dances at Minzu University of China (MUC) in Beijing.
Every Friday night, the campus would come alive as students from diverse backgrounds gathered in circles, swinging together in Tibetan dance. These dances, where elegant moves bridged cultures, not only sparked my curiosity but deeply moved me. They highlighted the power of dance to unite people across different ethnic groups. Attracted by these interactions and the beauty of Tibetan culture, I often dreamed of dancing upon the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau-“the roof of the world.” This dream became a reality when MUC offered a valuable opportunity to experience and engage with the culture I had come to admire from afar.
Upon arrival in Lhasa, the challenge of adapting to the high altitude at over 3,000 meters was discouraging. Despite my concerns, the strong reaction I experienced was not physical discomfort but rather a deep emotional response to the warmth and generosity of the Tibetan people. Their spirit, far more impactful than the thin air, touched my heart deeply.
The depth of spiritual and cultural richness I encountered in Xizang was reflected in the everyday interactions with the locals. This was reflected not just in their actions but also in their cuisine, which became a transformative element of my journey. The taste of fresh, creamy butter and the discovery of butter tea were sources of inspiration. Each sip and bite deepened my understanding of Tibetan culture, revealing culinary delights previously unknown to me.
This journey not only brought me closer to fulfilling my dream of visiting all provincial-level regions in China but also deepened my appreciation for the intricate tapestry of human connections across cultural boundaries.

Recently, Lei Jun announced Xiaomi’s self - developed mobile phone chip, Xuanjie O1 (玄戒 O1), which has attracted widespread attention. This is a significant step for Xiaomi in the technology field.
The Xuanjie O1 chip uses the advanced second-generation 3-nm process technology. With 19 billion transistors packed in a small area, it shows strong computing power.

We live in a world where posts, likes, and shares control our lives. So it’s not a big surprise that the media has taken center stage. Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so openly with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it is considered completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact online every day. Fans of social media point out that the world has never been so connected as it has allowed people to make friends, learn about the world and celebrate life.
However, many people have concerns about the effects of this new way of living, particularly around the amount and type of information that is shared so openly. Recently researchers have found that too much time on social media may have some negative (消极的) effects. They measured people’s attitudes and feelings before and after watching social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became.
There are a number of reasons for this. When watching social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and modern clothes. People seldom post negative stories or bad pictures, so it can be misleading. For those looking at these pictures and comparing them to their own lives, they can end up feeling upset. They might think their lives are worse in comparison. Even for those people who post positive stories and pictures, they too can feel stressed and worried. The number of “likes” and comments on their posts can make them anxious about their popularity. Of course, there is also the problem of cyberbullying where people are bullied online when others make negative or cruel comments about them.
The reality is that social media is part of modern life and it is not going to go away. This research shows us that it is important to find a balance between our online and offline lives. We don’t have to stay away from the Internet to live a happy life, but we should realize that the pictures we see and the stories we read are only part of a bigger picture. If we can do that, we can protect ourselves and enjoy our lives.
12. What effect does social media have according to the recent research
A．It makes people share their lives openly.
B．It enables people to make more friends on the Internet.
C．It helps people to have a better knowledge of the world.
D．It increases unhappiness for people who use it too much.
13. Why are people worried when they post positive stories and pictures
A．They fear others mislead their posts.
B．They fear others have happier lives.
C．They fear others may cyberbully them.
D．They fear others have more interesting stories.
14. How is Paragraph 3 organized
A．By giving causes. B．By listing numbers.
C．By making comparisons. D．By describing process.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A．To persuade people to keep off the Internet.
B．To describe the threats caused by social media.
C．To advise us to balance online and offline lives.
D．To introduce the convenience created by social media.

Learning a new language is an exciting but challenging journey. There are several difficulties that language learners often face.
Complex Grammar
Different languages have their own unique grammatical rules. ___16___ For example, in English, the order of words in a sentence is important for expressing the correct meaning. However, in Japanese or Russian, the word order can be more flexible (灵活的). This difference can make it difficult for learners to form correct sentences and express themselves accurately (准确地).
Pronunciation Challenges
Each language has its own set of sounds. For example, the French “r” sound or the German “ü” sound can be extremely difficult for English speakers to pronounce correctly. What’s more, the stress of a language can also affect the meaning of a word or a sentence. ___17___
Limited Vocabulary
Building a large enough vocabulary is necessary for effective language learning. ___18___ Some languages have a great number of words. Besides, many words may have several meanings or small differences that are difficult to understand. For example, in Chinese, a single character can have different meanings depending on the context.
Cultural Differences
___19___ Idioms (习语), proverbs (谚语), and expressions in a language often show the culture and history of the people who speak it. For example, the English idiom “it’s raining cats and dogs” may not make sense to a learner who doesn’t know much about Western cultures.
Few Chances to Practice
Learners need regular chances to practise speaking, listening, reading, and writing. However, they may not be able to meet native speakers or stay in a language environment. ___20___ For example, if a person is learning a language that is not widely spoken in their country, it may be challenging to find practice partners or language learning resources.

A Journey of Self-discovery
Since childhood, I had always been overshadowed by my elder sister, Lily, who was the epitome (缩影) of perfection in the eyes of our parents and everyone around us. She was an outstanding student, consistently topping her class in every subject. She was also a gifted pianist, her fingers dancing gracefully over the keys, creating the most beautiful melodies that could move people to tears. In contrast, I was just an ordinary kid. My grades were plain, and I had no particular talent that could make me stand out.
Our parents, especially my mother, always compared me to Lily. This constant comparison made me feel less confident and inadequate. So, I forced myself to study for long hours, even when I was exhausted. I also took piano lessons, but my clumsy fingers could never produce the same magic as Lily’s.
In high school, I joined the drama club, thinking that it might be a way to shine. I was so eager to prove myself that I took on every role that came my way, regardless of whether it suited me or not. I tried to parrot the acting styles of famous actors, but my performances always seemed forced and unnatural. The other club members started to give me strange looks, and I could sense their disappointment. I started to question myself: Why was I trying so hard to be someone I wasn’t
One day, while helping out in the school library, I accidentally discovered a book on photography. As I flipped through the pages, I was fascinated with the charming images. That night, I started to imagine myself behind the camera, capturing the beauty of the world around me. The next day, I used my savings to buy a second-hand camera. I began to explore the school campus, taking pictures of the old buildings, the blooming flowers, and the smiling faces of my classmates. I found I could photograph in a way that made the ordinary look extraordinary.
注意：
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With my camera in hand, I began to gain some confidence.

With my camera in hand, I began to gain some confidence. I spent all my spare time taking photos and gradually improved my skills. Later, a school photography competition was held, and I decided to take part in it. I carefully chose my best works and submitted them. To my great joy, my photos won the first prize.
