In the past，plant nurseries （苗圃） were the heart of gardening in the UK.But not long ago，many began to disappear.Older gardeners couldn't visit as often，and costs were rising.Even famous family businesses，like Cants of Colchester which grew beautiful roses，had to close their gates.The future for this green industry looked worrying.
However， a new seed（种子） of hope was growing.It came from young people like Jonny Bruce.Jonny's journey didn't start in a big garden at home.It began during his training at a place called Great Dixter.Walking between the nursery and the garden，a dream grew in his heart.His dream took him to the Netherlands （荷兰） where he stayed for more than four years.There，he saw new plants and learned a different way of thinking about nature.
Returning to the UK，Jonny carried his dream and a new idea.He wanted a nursery that worked with nature，not against it.The search for land was difficult.Then，luck smiled on him.A developer had a small field that wasn't used for building houses.They liked Jonny's green idea and agreed to let him use it.With great excitement，Jonny and his part-time helper，his friend Daniel，started their project.They named it the Field Nursery.
The work was hard under the open sky.Step by step，they built two greenhouses and a small shed.But they were planting more than just pretty flowers.They chose local trees and built little insect hotels.Their goal was to help wildlife，not keep it out. "A nursery can be a home for all living things，" Jonny explained.Their nursery was becoming a busy，friendly place for bees，birds，and plants.
Today，the Field Nursery is getting ready for its first autumn sale.Jonny and Daniel's hands are dirty，but their hearts are full.They are showing that with care and new ideas，the old tradition of nurseries can grow strong again.

Science is like a wonderful toolbox，helping us understand the world.But just like in life，it's important to know a tool's limits （局限） to use it well.Imagine you need to hit a nail.You can use the handle of a knife，but a real hammer （锤子） works much better.Science is a powerful tool，but it's best for answering questions we can actually test.
Our human brains are amazing，but they also have limits.Sometimes，to push past these limits，we need help.We need better equipment （设备）— bigger computers and stronger telescopes.These tools are expensive，but they help us look deeper into space and make new discoveries.Our brains，with the right help，can solve great mysteries.
But some limits are about how we think.Think about chimpanzees （黑猩猩）.They are very smart，and their DNA is very close to ours.But can they learn difficult math？Probably not.Our human brains let us think in special ways.What if our brains could develop just a little more？What amazing things could we understand then？Maybe our thinking has limits we can't even imagine today.
Some questions might be too big for science，no matter how smart we get.How did the universe truly begin？What was there before the beginning？These are deep mysteries.There may be no experiment we can ever do to find the answer.This is a basic limit.Science may never be able to explain everything.
Here is a key rule：for an idea to be scientific，it must be testable.This doesn't mean we can test it today.It means we could test it one day in the future.Some of the most interesting ideas —the ones people have wondered about for thousands of years —are not testable right now.This doesn't make them wrong.It just means，for now，they live outside the toolbox of science，waiting for the right tool.
23.Why does the writer talk about a knife and a hammer？______
A. To teach a lesson about using tools safely.
B. To show the right tool gives a better result.
C. To explain why science needs many tools.
D. To compare the price of two simple tools.
24.What message does Paragraph 4 give？______
A. We can push science's limits with hard work.
B. Experiments help space technology develop well.
C. Science's limits come from not doing enough tests.
D. Some universe mysteries are too hard for science to explore.
25.What might the writer think about future humans？______
A. They will stop asking big questions.
B. Their brains may understand much more.
C. They will finally discover all secrets of the universe.
D. They will use chimpanzees for experiments.
26.What will the writer most likely discuss next？______
A. An example of an untestable idea.
B. A list of all the tools science uses.
C. The high cost of building telescopes.
D. The complete history of the universe.
D
Climate change is a big challenge for our world.One main reason is too much carbon dioxide（CO2） in the air.Luckily，plants are nature's helpers —they take in this gas.Scientists at the Salk Institute are trying to make plants even better helpers.Their idea is to improve the plants' root （根） systems.Better roots can store more carbon and keep it locked in the ground for a longer time.This is their important goal.
To create these "climate – helping" plants，the scientists use an AI tool named SLEAP.It can watch and record how plant roots grow.A scientist named Talmo Pereira first made SLEAP.He designed it to study how animals move in labs.Later，he worked with plant expert Professor Wolfgang Busch.Together，they had a new thought： "Can we use SLEAP to study plant roots？" They tried，and it worked.
In the study，they found a new way to use SLEAP.The tool helps study the special features （特征） of plant roots.It measures how deep and wide the roots go，and how big the whole system is.Before SLEAP appeared，studying physical features of plants and animals needed lots of work.This made scientific research slow.But SLEAP uses computer "eyes" and a "brain" that learns.These AI technologies help researchers process images （图像） much more quickly.
Using SLEAP，the team built the largest collection of plant root data ever.This data helps them find the plant genes （基因） linked to good roots.It also shows if one gene controls many things.This knowledge lets the scientists choose the best genes to design the most helpful plants.
"Our teamwork shows something special and useful，" says Pereira. "We don't just take ideas from different fields. We treat all fields of study fairly to create something better than the total of its parts."
27.What is the main goal of the scientists' research at the Salk Institute？______
A. To create more types of plants in nature.
B. To make plants grow much taller and faster.
C. To change how plants use sunlight for food.
D. To help plants store more carbon underground.
28.What is the writer's purpose of writing the text？______
A. To show the harm ofCO2.
B. To introduce an AI tool for plants.
C. To explain how animals live well.
D. To describe different plant genes.
29.What does the underlined sentence "We treat all fields of study fairly to create something better than the total of its parts." mean？______
A. Different fields work for better results.
B. We should copy other scientists' ideas.
C. Every team needs clever researchers.
D. One field is more useful than others.
30.What is the best title for the text？______
A. The History of the Salk Institute's Study
B. Ways to Improve Plant Root Systems
C. AI Helps Plants Fight Climate Change
D. How to Record Animal Movement Easily

31.Dear Timo，
How's everything going？I wanted to share a wonderful part of my culture with you —the Chinese Zodiac （生肖）.It started more than 2，000 years ago.The ancient Chinese people chose twelve animals，like the smart Rat，brave Tiger，and gentle Rabbit，to stand for different years.I was born in the Year of the Horse，and it is said that means being hard-working and friendly!
（1）______
They are the first complete set of Chinese zodiac stamps.My grandfather started collecting them when he was young，and now he has given them to me.The first one was the "Golden Monkey" stamp for 1980.Looking at them is like walking into a beautiful art world.
（2）______
Artists used styles from traditional Chinese painting and paper-cutting.For example，the Dragon looks powerful，and the Rabbit looks quiet and kind.Every stamp is not just for mailing letters；it is a small piece of culture full of good wishes.
These stamps are more than just a collection.（3）______ They connect our life today with stories and traditions from long ago.When I look at the Rooster stamp，I think of my grandfather telling me about being confident.When I see the Dog stamp，I remember stories about loyalty （忠诚）.
（4）______
It is a fun way to talk about who we are and understand each other better.The zodiac and its beautiful stamps make our culture alive，warm，and full of meaning.Would you like to know your Chinese zodiac animal？Write back and tell me!
Yours，
Chen Jie

35.Should we use extra practice books bought by our parents？
Hello，everyone.I'm Li Hua.I think we should refuse to use extra practice books from our parents.
First，they often waste our time.For example，my mom bought me a maths book.The problems in it were too hard and different from our schoolwork.I spent a lot of time on it but learned little.I felt very tired.Second，we are already busy with homework.This is not good for us.
In conclusion，I believe doing our schoolwork carefully is the best way to learn.We do not need those extra books.Thank you.
