About a year ago, my mother turned on the dishwasher and went to the airport to drop off my father who was headed overseas on a work trip. By the time she got back, there was water all over the kitchen floor. We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after dinner.
I soon found myself faced with a pile of thankless dishes in the sink, urging me to get on with it and deliver on my duty. At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student taking a tough course load. Gradually, I realized that, for about 15 minutes every day, I could slow down time and forget everything in the world as my mind, eyes and hands focused on a simple task that would always result in success.
We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother greatly.
Washing dishes by hand has been more educational than I could have ever imagined. I’m running around stressed most of the day. There are homework, projects, quizzes and tests competing for my attention and time. I’ve caged myself in a prison of my dreams and expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world.
However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots of the changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and reflected on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me.
24. Why did the author start washing dishes by hand
A．His mother requested him to do so.
B．The old dishwasher broke down.
C．He attempted to please his father.
D．The new dishwasher was extremely expensive.
25. What did the author think of dish-washing originally
A．It was a stress-reliever.
B．It was stressful.
C．It was tough.
D．It was a money-saver.
26. What does the underlined word “perplexing” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Offending.
B．Discouraging.
C．Puzzling.
D．Inspiring.
27. What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs
A．He regretted devoting too much time to study.
B．He decided to give up some of his goals.
C．He desired to move to a house with a larger yard.
D．He grew more sensitive to the beauty of nature.
（C）
The ocean may appear boundless. It’s easy to imagine that fish and other ocean creatures swim freely without restriction. That assumption, however, is mistaken. According to ecologist Karissa Lear, many ocean species stick to specific habitats and seldom go beyond them. This habit can cause unexpectedly big problems, especially when human-built structures get in the way.
Take, for example, the green sawfish living near the mouth of the Ashburton River in Western Australia. In 2017, a large structure was built by the shore, stretching about 550 yards into the sea. As Lear had feared, the construction did harm the critically endangered green sawfish — they were unable to pass around the barrier. To Lear, this discovery supported a surprising new idea that ocean animals, much like land species, need a helping hand getting around human-built structures.
On land, wildlife crossings are becoming more common. Green bridges, for instance, help bears and elk avoid a road in Canada’s Banff National Park. In 2022, a wildlife crossing in Washington State was used more than 5,000 times by animals such as deer and coyotes. Although the bridges are already popular on land, Lear says little attention has been paid to the idea of wildlife crossings designed to help ocean animals get around safely.
For ocean animals, too many barriers can cut them off from important feeding sites. Overly limited movement can lead to the development of isolated groups that are more likely to go extinct. With more large structures planned for the Ashburton River area, Lear says the cumulative (累积的) effect of multiple barriers is a real concern for the green sawfish’s future.
As the climate continues to change, paying attention to the needs of ocean animals is important. Many are moving farther north, and they need suitable habitats to move through. To address this, we can create crossings through human-built structures or protect habitats along their migration routes. As we continue to engineer the ocean, such efforts could go a long way toward protecting ocean life.
28. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph
A．By detailing research findings.
B．By describing a natural scene.
C．By addressing public concerns.
D．By challenging a common belief.
29. What effect did the structure near the Ashburton River have
A．It provided a new habitat for ocean life.
B．It blocked the path of the green sawfish.
C．It attracted more new species to the area.
D．It drove the green sawfish into deep waters.
30. What does Lear imply about wildlife crossings
A．They have reduced road accidents on land.
B．They will replace ocean barriers eventually.
C．They have destroyed land animals’ habitats.
D．They are urgently needed for ocean animals.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text

B．The Ocean Where Life Is in Danger
C．The Sawfish That Lost Their Way Home
D．Ocean Structures: No Harm Done
（D）
Lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries power everything from smartphones to electric cars and renewable energy storage. However, lithium is insufficient and concentrated in limited regions. To meet the growing demand for clean energy, scientists are exploring sodium-ion batteries as a sustainable alternative.
Sodium, found in large quantities in seawater and salt mines, is cheaper and more widely available than lithium. Yet, sodium-ion batteries face a major technical problem. Sodium-ions are three times larger than lithium-ions, making them slower to move and harder to store within battery electrodes (电极). This reduces energy density, meaning sodium batteries require larger sizes to match lithium’s capacity. Scientists are handling this challenge through new materials.
One focus is improving the anode (negative electrode). Traditional lithium batteries use graphite (石墨), which struggles to store sodium. Scientists now use “hard carbon”, a porous material, which allows sodium-ions to pass through its numerous tiny gaps. Adding tin to hard carbon further boosts storage capacity. For the cathode (positive electrode), new materials like layered metal oxides or organic compounds show promise. For example, a durable organic cathode named TAQ has achieved high energy density and stability over thousands of charging cycles.
Recent progress is encouraging. Some commercial sodium batteries now store 170-200 watt-hours per kilogram (Wh/kg), close to low-end lithium batteries (200-300Wh/kg). Major companies like CATL in China plan large-scale production, targeting renewable energy storage and electric vehicles.
However, challenges remain. Even top sodium batteries still lag behind advanced lithium models in performance. Falling lithium prices, driven by oversupply, and existing manufacturing infrastructure (基础设施) also weaken sodium’s cost advantage. Experts emphasize the need for breakthroughs, such as replacing expensive materials like vanadium.
Despite challenges, many believe sodium batteries have a bright future. As research advances, they could become a key player in building a greener economy. “We’re still in the early days of understanding sodium’s chemistry,” says Dan Steingart, a battery chemist, “but the potential is undeniable.”
32. Why is sodium considered a better resource than lithium
A．It provides higher energy density.
B．It is simpler and safer to get.
C．It is more affordable and abundant.
D．It allows faster charging cycles.
33. What does the underlined word “porous” mean in Paragraph 3
A．Full of small holes.
B．Stable and rough.
C．Large in capacity.
D．Extremely dense.
34. Why is sodium’s cost advantage currently limited
A．Sodium batteries need rare materials for production.
B．Lithium prices have dropped greatly due to rich supply.
C．Global lithium reserves are sufficient for large-scale use.
D．Sodium batteries require complex manufacturing processes.
35. What is the main purpose of the text
A．To criticize lithium batteries for their environmental harm.
B．To warn against relying on renewable energy storage.
C．To promote organic cathodes as an alternative solution.
D．To highlight sodium’s potential despite current limitations.
三、七选五
Have you ever found yourself reciting your grocery list out loud in the supermarket or saying something encouraging to yourself before a big moment If so, you are not alone. Talking to ourselves, either within our heads or out loud, is a common behavior. Psychologists refer to it as “self-talk,” a mental tool like a Swiss army knife. ___36___
Saying something out loud, whether it’s positive or negative, can make the thought that you’re expressing seem more official, or public, than if you merely think about it. ___37___ For them, working through a problem aloud helps them think more clearly and see how things fit together.
Some people report using self-talk to help them calm down in periods of negative mental states. Research, for instance, has found that when people are anxious or stressed, they are more likely to engage in self-talk. ___38___ It is like giving yourself the support a friend would.
___39___ “I really do believe in the power of positive self-talk, at the gym, in the mirror, before a big meeting — all of that,” says Carol Bergman, 52. She does it before she works out with “Come on, you got this!” or with “You look great!” if she needs to hear some kind words about herself from time to time.
In fact, we learn to talk to ourselves in childhood, where it is associated with better performance on tasks and challenging activities. ___40___ As adults, we may return to speaking out loud when mentally or emotionally challenged. In such moments, it serves as an extra tool to help us focus and think and solve problems. So talking to yourself is not being as strange as you think you are.
A．However, we do it less as we grow older.
B．Self-talk also helps people stay motivated.
C．Here are some ways to put it into practice.
D．It’s a superpower that we all naturally possess.
E．It can be useful in many different situations in life.
F．Speaking emotions aloud makes them manageable.
G．Some people use self-talk to sort through a challenge.

“Socks,” he said hoarsely (沙哑地), exposing shoes with falling apart soles. “Dry feet. Just once.”
Without missing a beat, I reached into my backpack and pulled out the ___48___ hiking socks — a birthday gift still in its packaging. At first, he refused, but ___49___ when I told it would ___50___ me. His reaction moved me deeply: pressing the material to his face, he whispered, “They smell like sunshine.”
As he ___51___ them on, I saw a pool of tears ___52___ up in his eyes. “Haven’t felt this warm since...” The sentence faded away as we embraced.
Now my box in the car stocks ___53___ and other stuff. Last week, a woman held her new warm gloves, whispering, “You saw me, actually saw me.” Her words clung to me, a(n) ___54___ of my friend’s final lesson: Sometimes the greatest gift isn’t in the ___55___, but in the seeing.
