I have struggled with speaking English since learning it as a second language at 27. Early in my teaching career, students complained about my accent, and my department chair once summed up my poor performance. Dr. Sun was a good teacher, but he had an accent. Even my children urged me to try harder. “Anything you can do,” they insisted. The unspoken accusation was clear: If I still sounded foreign, I wasn’t trying hard enough.
What neither of them knew was that biology had already cast the die.
There is a term for the firm influence of one’s mother tongue: imprinting, an early, mostly unchangeable form of learning. The idea first entered science through the brilliance of Konrad Lorenz, who famously persuaded newly hatched goslings (小鹅) to follow him as if he were their mother. At the time, imprinting was mostly treated as an animal curiosity. Its deeper relevance to humans took longer to sink in.
Decades of research since then have reinforced the point. Human brains pass through a critical period for language acquisition. During childhood, neural (神经的) circuits are finely tuned to absorb sounds and accents. Later, those circuits become less flexible, not because adults are lazy, but because gene expression changes with age. This is why children can pick up a new language without an accent, while adults, no matter how dedicated, cannot.
I stopped fighting this biological hint and focused on areas imprinting does not control: word choice, sentence structure and rhythm. Something unexpected happened — my English writing improved greatly, even regular essays in English.
Biology does not write our future, but it does draw boundaries. That is why we abandon many childhood dreams: basketball for being too short, soccer for starting too late. Ignoring them, we trip up. Understanding them, we can work around them. The best kind of confidence is not the belief that you can do anything. It is the wisdom to know what you cannot do, and the discipline to stop wasting precious time trying to prove otherwise.
24. What did the author’s children accuse him of
A. Showing off his pronunciation.
B. Not trying hard to drop his accent.
C. Speaking with an accent in class.
D. Refusing to learn standard English.
25. What does the underlined phrase “cast the die” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Delayed the process.
B. Unlocked the potential.
C. Improved the situation.
D. Determined the outcome.
26. What makes it hard for adults to learn a foreign language without an accent
A. Mental illnesses.
B. Learning habits.
C. Biological changes.
D. Genetic patterns.
27. What does the author intend to tell us
A. Play to your strengths.
B. It’s never too late to learn.
C. Man can conquer nature.
D. Early bird catches the worm.
C
In recent years, to monitor biodiversity and perceive how changes in ecosystems affect migratory (迁徙的) routes, researchers and conservationists have focused on tracking migratory bird populations worldwide. These birds, travel thousands of kilometers between breeding and wintering grounds, face numerous threats, including habitat loss, climate change and human conflict. Using state-of-the-art satellite technology, scientists have managed to collect large datasets on bird movements, providing crucial insights into their migratory patterns and potential risks.
However, despite the abundance of tracking data, a recent study from the University of Cambridge underscores that significant gaps in our understanding of many species still exist.
“While we have a vast amount of tracking data, we often overlook smaller migratory species or those that travel less popular routes,” explains Dr. Emma Lewis, the study’s lead author. “Our reliance on satellite tags has also led us to focus mainly on larger species that can carry the weight of the tracking devices, leaving smaller birds, which are often just as vulnerable, underrepresented in our data.”
The study examined data from over a million tracking records of migratory birds and identified several areas with limited information. Birds from remote areas, for instance, were much less likely to be tracked to assess biodiversity issues. Additionally, there was a strong bias (偏见) toward species that are already of high interest to the public, such as eagles or storks, rather than smaller, less prominent birds. Dr. Lewis and her team believe this bias could lead to neglecting other issues that may be equally as critical.
To address these issues, Dr. Lewis suggests expanding tracking efforts to include more diverse bird populations. “By collaborating with local researchers and investing in higher, more efficient tracking technology, we can gather data on a broader range of species,” she explains. “Encouraging birdwatchers to report sightings of less common migratory birds could fill relevant data gaps and offer a more comprehensive image of global migratory patterns.” This combined approach can ensure future conservation efforts are better informed and more inclusive, ultimately contributing to the protection of all migratory bird species.
28. What’s the main issue with current migratory bird tracking
A. Heavily relying on large datasets.
B. Ignoring short-distance migrations.
C. Primarily tracking larger bird species.
D. Focusing on migration in breeding seasons.
29. What is the researchers’ concern about conservation resources
A. Uneven distribution to certain species.
B. Desperate shortage in popular routes.
C. Rare accessibility to larger bird species.
D. Irresponsible overuse in remote habitats.
30. How does Dr. Lewis suggest improving bird migration data
A. Limit resources to high-profile species.
B. Launch new programs for endangered species.
C. Enhance tracking methods for prominent bird species.
D. Engage the public in observing underrepresented birds.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Tracking Bird Migration Worldwide
B. Hidden Gaps in Migratory Bird Research
C. New Technology for Wildlife Protection
D. Saving Endangered Birds Through Satellite Tags
D
Energy efficiency improvements, such as the widespread adoption of LED lighting, are widely promoted by policymakers as a primary strategy for reducing carbon emissions. However, a growing body of research indicates that a phenomenon known as the “rebound effect” could significantly weaken these efforts, potentially wiping out more than half of the expected energy savings and making global climate targets much harder to achieve.
A research team led by Paul Brockway at the University of Leeds, UK, conducted a comprehensive review of existing literature on this topic. They analyzed 33 previous studies that modelled the impact of efficiency improvements. The team identified two main mechanisms: the direct rebound effect and the indirect rebound effect. The direct effect occurs when a consumer responds to increased efficiency by using more of the service — for example, driving further because a fuel-efficient car lowers the cost per mile. The indirect effect happens when money saved on energy is spent on other goods and services, which in turn require energy to produce and deliver.
Despite the varied methodologies used in the original 33 studies, the results were remarkably consistent. The team concluded that, on average, the rebound effect negates approximately 63 percent of the anticipated energy savings.
“We are not arguing that energy efficiency is ineffective,” clarifies Brockway. “Rather, the rebound effect needs to be taken more seriously in policy planning.” This concept echoes a famous paradox (悖论) named after economist William Stanley Jevons. In 1865, Jevons observed that technological improvements in coal efficiency led not to a reduction in coal consumption, but to an increase in overall demand as it became more economically affordable.
If the rebound effect proves as substantial as this analysis suggests, future global energy demand will be higher than expected. This implies that the world will require far more renewable energy infrastructure and carbon-capture technology than currently planned.
However, it doesn’t mean nothing can be done to limit the rebound effect. One potential solution is to intensify efforts: doubling down on energy efficiency to achieve the same net reduction in energy usage.
32. Which best illustrates the indirect rebound effect
A. A driver buys a hybrid car and commutes longer distances.
B. A company uses efficient machines to cut operational costs.
C. A student saves on electricity and takes a cross-country flight.
D. A family installs solar panels and sells extra power to the grid.
33. How did Paul Brockway’s team carry out their research
A. By interviewing economists.
B. By analyzing former studies.
C. By modelling the rebound effect.
D. By debating about the Jevons paradox.
34. What would Paul Brockway probably agree with
A. Authorities should dismiss energy efficiency.
B. Worldwide efforts to preserve energy are in vain.
C. The rebound effect needs to be paid serious attention.
D. More attention should be paid to rebound effect
35. What’s the author’s attitude towards limiting the rebound effect
A. Positive.
B. Pessimistic.
C. Doubtful.
D. Disapproving.

Tips on Connecting With Your Family in the Car
In our fast-paced world, quality time with family members is often the first thing we sacrifice. Due to last-minute work calls or running-late dates, Friday movie nights are canceled and Saturday outings are frequently postponed. ____36____ Both short school drives and long road trips can be transformed into valuable bonding experiences by being intentional.
Remove digital distractions. Often, phones and tablets make every member stay in their own world. This creates a disconnected environment. ____37____ Use this time in the car to chat, observe the scenery, or simply enjoy shared silence, fostering an atmosphere where everyone can get fully involved.
Start gentle and interesting conversations. ____38____ As a result, communication breaks down.

Use open-ended questions like “Where would you choose if you could go anywhere ”. This encourages everyone to share more about their inner worlds.
____39____ Car rides need not just about getting from A to B. They’re also a chance to share practical knowledge. When passing a gas station, talk to teens about budgeting. Upon spotting a road sign, explain to younger kids its meaning. Small exchanges spark curiosity and build practical wisdom for everyone.
Create musical experiences. Road trips can be a painfully long stretch in the car. That’s where the magic of music — a powerful emotional connector — comes in. Allow each member to add a few of their favorite songs and create a family playlist together. During the trip, sing along to familiar tunes, or have silly family karaoke sessions. ____40____ Follow these tips and turn boring car trips into a lasting warm memory.
A. Make good use of road trips into mini education.
B. Turn long transportation into fun.
C. But what if we fully share the moments inside the car

“Today’s the day!” Ethan burst out as he poured cereal (麦片) into a bowl, unable to contain his excitement. “I hope I don’t let Coach Schultz and the kids in the team down.” It was finally the inter-school match, and Ethan was going to be pitching (投球) for the first time in a real match. “Oh, you’ll do fine,” Dad comforted, “You’ve spent months running, pitching, and working on your mobility.”
“Do you have time to feed the goats before you leave ” Dad asked. “Sure I have fifteen minutes before Coach Schultz pick me up.” Ethan replied. “Sorry I have to leave before you.” Dad grabbed his car keys.
Ethan wolfed down his cereal and headed out to the barn (畜棚). As he fed the goats, he tried to remember all the pitching tips Coach Schultz had given him. Then he spotted their young goat Zeke opening the gate! Ethan dashed over to stop him from escaping. It was too late. Zeke had disappeared into the trees in the far corner.
Knowing he couldn’t leave with Zeke on the loose, Ethan quickly figured out he’d need a bucket of cracked corn to attract the goat and a rope to catch him and lead him back. By that time, a car rolled in and stopped. “Ready ” Coach Schultz asked. “I — I can’t go right now. I have to get our goat back home,” Ethan yelled. “Can I help ” he asked. “You don’t have time to start warm-up soon.” Ethan replied. The unspoken accusation was clear: If I still sounded foreign, I wasn’t trying hard enough. Ethan fought his way through the overgrown bush to get the corn and the rope. Ethan fought to swallow the tightness in his throat as he went to catch his breath. He knew the team would be starting their warm-up by now. How he wished he could be there!
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；

Dear Chris,
Glad to hear that you’re interested in Chinese history. Personally, I would recommend starting with popular history books.
My reasons are as follows. First, they explain historical events and figures in a clear and accessible manner, making them ideal for beginners. Second, enriched with vivid stories and fascinating details, they can bring history to life and make reading more enjoyable.
As for reading advice, you can start with books about major dynasties and influential historical figures to gain a general understanding of China’s past. Once you have built a solid foundation, you may move on to academic history books for deeper insights.
Hope you enjoy your reading!
Yours,
Li Hua
