When Marie Benton first moved to London in 2008, joining a choir helped her settle in. To comfort and boost confidence for people in trouble, she hung posters in local hostels advertising “a choir with no name (yet)”, and it was an immediate success. Thus was officially born The Choir with No Name (TCWNN), which now has seven choirs across multiple cities to support those affected by homelessness and exclusion (排斥).
Studies have documented the close link between homelessness and poor mental health. A 2022 report revealed homeless people experience worse physical and mental health than the general population. Fortunately, research in Psychology of Music found choir participation improves positive emotions, with 88% of people seeing mental health improvements and 78% reporting reduced stress and anxiety.
Frequently ignored and often rejected, homeless people are often isolated (孤立). “Our choirs aim to do the opposite, where everyone is seen and heard,” says TCWNN’s CEO Dr. Kate Wareham.
Unlike other groups, TCWNN is free to join, welcoming people of all ages, backgrounds and musical abilities, with no pre-registration, audition (试唱) or regular commitment. Rehearsals (彩排) start with a chat, followed by 90 minutes of group singing and a hot meal afterward. The choir directors are teaching group singing in a way that ensures everyone is supported to grow both personally and musically.
Dan, who has been in the choir since 2015, says his life has been transformed. Forced to leave his family home and living in a hostel, he had withdrawn from the world. Weekly rehearsals gave him a routine among the chaos, providing hope during darkness. “When I joined, I was at the bottom of the ladder; choir was the start of climbing up, and, slowly but surely, I got to where I am today — a confident and outgoing person.” he says. Now Dan has his own flat and rebuilds family relationships.
24. Why did Marie Benton start TCWNN
A．To establish a choir network across the UK.
B．To help herself settle in London quickly.
C．To help with the promotion of local hostels.
D．To uplift people facing hardships.
25. What does the research in Psychology of Music show
A．Growing popularity of singing activities.
B．The poor physical health of homeless people.
C．The link between homelessness and mental health.
D．Positive effects of choir involvement on health.
26. What does TCWNN feature
A．Advanced registration.
B．Easy access for everyone.
C．High attendance demands.
D．Professional musical skills.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．TCWNN: Where Every Voice Matters
B．Hope: What Science Says about Choirs
C．Singing: A Way to Beat Stress
D．Music: A Cure for Poor Health
C
Beijing Opera is the most typical of all Chinese traditional dramatic art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from absorbing (吸收) many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama “Huiban”, which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic (戏剧的) art including music, performance, literature, aria(唱腔) and face painting.
Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics(杂技).
Besides its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.
“You will be puzzled (困惑的) all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera even if you know nothing of the dramatic background.” This is how one American traveller described his first experience in watching Beijing Opera.
Beijing Opera is China’s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and enjoy Beijing Opera!
28. How long is the history of Beijing Opera
A．One hundred years.
B．Two hundred years.
C．Three hundred years.
D．Four hundred years.
29. Which of the following is True about Beijing Opera
A．There are no dancing parts in modern Beijing Opera.
B．Beijing Opera presents singing dancing and spoken parts.
C．Beijing Opera hasn’t absorbed the other art forms.
D．Nowadays, young people aren’t interested in Beijing Opera.
30. According to Paragraph 3, what does the writer think of Mei Lanfang
A．He played an important role in spreading Beijing Opera.
B．He isn’t as famous as the other Beijing Opera performer.
C．He never introduced Beijing Opera to the world.
D．He is a performer who doesn’t like to travel around the world.
31. What does the underlined word “charmed” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A．present
B．bore
C．attract
D．cheat

A field trip to a water treatment plant inspired two teenagers from Texas to develop a device that targets one of the most widespread forms of modern pollution: microplastics.
As detailed by Business Insider, Victoria Ou and Justin Huang, who have been friends since primary school, won a $ 50,000 prize after presenting their ultrasonic microplastic filter (超声波微塑料过滤器). They revealed their invention in May at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Los Angeles, a platform for young innovators working on projects to benefit humanity.
Ou and Huang, both 17, had long cared about environmental issues, but their trip to the water treatment plant was when the light bulb went on regarding their ISEF project. There, they discovered that microplastics are not regulated and thus remain in our wastewater. “We wanted to find a solution to this because current solutions aren’t really effective,” Huang explained.
Though microplastics, measuring less than five millimeters, are hard to detect, a study shows that the average person consumes a credit-card-sized amount every week. They are linked to serious health issues including cancer, dementia (痴呆) and organ damage.
While existing methods to remove microplastics show some promise, they have severe limitations, including high costs and a tendency to cause pollution. To solve these problems, Huang and Ou developed a filter that uses ultrasonic waves to trap microplastics without blocking the flow of water. According to a Society for Science news release, this method can remove 84% to 94% of microplastics from water.
In the future, the pair plans to scale up (扩大规模) their device into an affordable method for widespread use. They also hope to create a smaller version for household use, such as filtering water during laundry. “But first we have to improve it, as the technology is still in its early stage,” Huang said.
32. What does the underlined part “the light bulb went on” in paragraph 3 mean
A．An issue disappeared.
B．An inspiration emerged.
C．A device was revealed.
D．A reward was secured.
33. What is paragraph 4 intended to show
A．The influence of the new device.
B．The major causes of microplastics.
C．The need to handle microplastics.
D．The current serious water problem.
34. What is an advantage of Huang and Ou’s device according to the text
A．It is free of charge.
B．It is eco-friendly.
C．It can reuse microplastics.
D．It filters 100% of microplastics.
35. What is Huang’s opinion about their device
A．It is far from promising.
B．It is under fire.
C．It is to be bettered.
D．It is well received.

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。
Ten-year-old Tom always felt lonely. His parents were always occupied with work. They left home early in the morning and came back late at night. Tom often ate dinner alone and went to bed without a goodnight kiss. For him, there were no family games, no city tours, no weekend outings.
One day, Tom's parents brought home a gift—a smart watch. "This watch has a special friend inside,” Mom said with a smile. "Her name is Ling. She can talk to you, answer your questions, and even tell you stories.” A wave of anticipation swept over Tom as he put on the watch and pressed the button. A gentle voice came out, "Hello, Tom! I'm Ling. Nice to meet you!” Tom's eyes lit up. He had never received such an interesting gift before.
From that day on, Ling became Tom's closest companion. Every morning, Ling would say, "Good morning, Tom! Have a great day at school!” Whenever Tom encountered difficulties with his homework, Ling would patiently provide thorough explanations. After Tom got into bed, Ling would tell his favorite tales about brave knights and magical lands. Sometimes, when Tom felt scared of the dark, Ling would sing softly to comfort him. To Tom, Ling was more than a voice; she was family.
His parents noticed Tom's change. "See Our little boy seems much happier now,” Dad said one evening. Mom agreed, "The watch really helps,” relieved. They thought their son was no longer lonely. What they didn't know was that sometimes, after Ling had finished her stories, Tom would lie awake in the darkness, listening to the silence that filled the room. He loved Ling, but he couldn't help thinking: if only Mom and Dad were here.
One afternoon after school, Tom tripped and fell on the way home. The watch hit a rock with a loud crack. When Tom picked it up, the screen was dark. He pressed the button again and again, but nothing appeared. "Ling Ling, are you there ” he called desperately. There was no reply.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Tom had no choice but to turn to his parents for help.

A Journey to a Beautiful Village
Last week our school organized a social practice activity to a beautiful village.
We visited local farms, learned to grow vegetables and chatted with villagers about their happy new life. We also enjoyed traditional handmade crafts and delicious local food.
This activity impressed me deeply. I witnessed great changes in rural areas. I realize countryside is full of beauty and vitality, and I hope we can balance city and rural development.
读后续写范文
Tom had no choice but to turn to his parents for help. Holding the broken watch tightly, Tom rushed home with red eyes. He told his parents sadly that Ling, his only companion, stopped talking forever. Tears rolled down his face as he poured out his true feelings. He missed the warm company and admitted that he actually longed for his parents’ company far more than the smart watch.
At that moment, both Mom and Dad saw clearly what they had missed. They felt ashamed of spending too much time on work and ignoring their lonely son. They hugged Tom tightly and promised to spare more family time every day. From then on, they shared dinner together, took weekend walks and told bedtime stories. Though Ling was gone, Tom gained the most precious love from his parents.
