From baking pumpkin pie to celebrating the moon, here’s how autumn is celebrated across the globe.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the biggest and most widely celebrated harvest festivals in the world. It is held on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar. In many Asian countries including China, the festival is celebrated as a public holiday, with families gathering and giving thanks for the harvest and full moon.
Oktoberfest is another major autumn celebration that, while originating in Germany, has inspired local versions around the globe. The world’s largest folk festival begins in September and runs for about two weeks, featuring traditional Bavarian food, music, clothing, and most importantly, lots of beer!
Thanksgiving is also an important celebration for Americans that takes place in late November every year, with seasonal dishes like yams smothered and pumpkin pies always having a place at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Walks, hikes and trips to see the changing foliage are also hugely popular, with locations like Asheville and North Carolina, boasting of some of the most beautiful autumn scenery around.
There are also several cultural and religious events that occur throughout October and November. Dia de Los Muertos, on the 1st and 2nd November, is a Mexican celebration that honours the lives of those who have passed away with food, drinks and activities that those loved ones enjoyed when they were alive. Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, is another spiritual celebration of the victory of light over darkness, and good over evil, which falls on 14th November. Lighting candles all around the house and hoping for health and wealth are the chief rituals of the festival.

A surfer who lost his right leg to a shark attack months ago has amazed people by returning to the waves on his one remaining leg. In a show of remarkable courage, the surfer Kai McKenzie paddled out to the same spot where he had been attacked by a white shark four months earlier, which was quite a rare case.
After the initial shock, McKenzie kept his spirits uplifted by his mission to return to the water before the end of the year. The 23-year-old had promised to get back into surfing as soon as he was able to. McKenzie took off his artificial limb (肢) and got back to riding the waves and practicing new moves. He paddled out with focus, catching several waves, jumping on his board with one leg and occasionally steering (控制) it with one hand when it was off course. It’s far from effortless to surf with one leg which causes imbalance, and when he wiped out, he'd only got one leg to swing back up.
Supported by family, McKenzie appeared at ease in the same water despite admitting he was a bit nervous because the water looked “exactly like that day”. His bravery and skill while surfing on one foot touched everyone. He later posted his return to the ocean online. “It’s one of the craziest feelings I’ve had! It’s the first time that I’d paddled back in the water where I got bitten,” he wrote. “I sat out there by myself and took it in for a little bit then a bunch of good people surfed with me.”
Mark, a surfing champion who lost his right leg due to cancer, mentioned McKenzie’s return to the ocean, saying, “That fear of the shark would have been behind him as he was paddling out. Getting back out there is extremely courageous. McKenzie might not at the top yet, but he’s young and he’ll adapt fast. He has taken his first and biggest step by getting out there.”
4. Why are people amazed by McKenzie
A．He has lost his right leg.
B．He rose right where he fell.
C．He has a gift for surfing.
D．He was attacked by a shark.
5. How did McKenzie manage to surf with only one leg
A．He relied on his artificial limb for support.
B．He got help from other surfers in the water.
C．He tried new moves and adjusted his techniques.
D．He used a special surfboard designed for balance.
6. What was McKenzie’s state of mind when returning to the water
A．Basically relieved.
B．Extremely tense.
C．Rather unwilling.
D．Totally fearless.
7. What do Mark’s words imply about McKenzie’s future
A．He will struggle to surf effectively.
B．He is likely to quit surfing due to fear.
C．He will live with the fear of the shark.
D．He is expected to be a promising surfer.

Everything including 3D printers is bigger in Texas. The Lone Star State will soon be the site of the world’s first 3D-printed hotel, El Cosmico, which has begun construction in the desert north of Marfa. Photos of the site show a large 46.5-foot-wide and 15.5-foot-tall 3D printer laying sand-colored material onto the foundations, creating sand-colored walls. This machine, called the Vulcan, was created by Texas-based 3D printing and robotics company ICON.
The project is a cooperation between Liz Lambert, El Cosmico’s owner, ICON and architects at Bjarke Ingels Group. Lambert wants to expand the existing El Cosmico hotel, adding 43 new units and 18 homes on a new 40-acre land. Model images of the hotel’s inside part show cream walls and rounded wooden surfaces full of colors that reflect the surrounding desert. In addition to the hotel, El Cosmico will include several 3D-printed homes, which are now priced for $2.29 million. It’s reported that the hotel units will cost between $200 and $450 per night.
The structures’ walls are made of a concrete called “lavacrete”, a particular low-carbon material created by ICON, which has a compressive(压力的) strength of 2,000 to 3,500 pounds per square inch.
ICON was founded in 2018, and its technology has since been used to build 3D-printed homes in Texas and Mexico. Besides printing houses and hotels, a few years ago, ICON built Mars Dune Alpha, a 3D-printed environment that copied conditions on the Red Planet’s surface. In 2022, the company got a $57 million contract for their Project Olympus, which is exploring ways to build 3D-printed structures on the moon using locally available materials.
Back on Earth, this 3D-printing technology has the potential to help deal with America’s affordable housing problem. In 2020, ICON constructed several houses for the Community First! Village in Austin, a program for people experiencing homelessness.
In the future, the expansion of El Cosmico may include affordable housing for hotel staff. Lambert said these plans were “in the background” but still moving forward. Construction on the new hotel is scheduled to conclude in 2026.
8. What is a feature of the 3D-printed hotel
A．It is eco-friendly as well as strong.
B．It is surrounded by wooden houses.
C．It is out of place from the surroundings.
D．It’s the result of a single company’s effort.
9. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Mars Dune Alpha
A．To recommend a high-end printed hotel.
B．To urge people to learn 3D-printed structures.
C．To illustrate ICON’s strong technology.
D．To push the protection of the environment.
10. What is ICON’s technology intended to do
A．Print food for the homeless.
B．Address America’s housing crisis.
C．Create smart robots in space.
D．Offer hotel staff chances to travel.
11. What might be the best title for the text
A．Housing Crisis: A Big Issue in America
B．ICON’s Lavacrete: Changing Construction
C．ICON: Leading in 3D-Printing Technology
D．El Cosmico: A Large Hotel Being 3D-Printed

It is late at night. You wander empty streets, heart pounding, muscles tense, sensing danger nearby. Now imagine the same situation, but without these responses. Would you still feel afraid Experiences like this unveil a profound truth: our minds are not just products of the brain but emerge from its constant dialogue with the body.
At the heart of this connection is the vagus nerve (神经) — the body’s longest nerve. It winds its way from the brain throughout the head and trunk, issuing commands to our organs and receiving feelings from them. Much of the confusing range of functions it regulates are automatic and operate without conscious control. These complex responses engage a group of neural networks that link brain and body. The vagus nerve is, in one way of thinking, the conduit of the mind.
The primary function of the vagus nerve is to dampen the body’s responses. After a fear episode, for example, the body’s powerful, life-saving threat response must be ended to restore resting heartbeat, breathing, blood flow and the rest. So powerful is its influence that the vagus nerve can literally stop the beating heart. Conversely, it can also stimulate bodily responses by releasing the brakes to accelerate.
The vagus nerve is the biological basis for many new therapies (疗法) worldwide. However, some people have taken the vagus nerve’s wide-ranging bodily influence as an invitation to engage in false science. In some corners of the Internet, so-called polyvagal therapy—physical or breathing exercises that some claim reset the vagus nerve — is proposed to address just about any disorder of the mind or body. There’s little evidence that these popular therapies are anything but comfort.
The vagus nerve doesn’t need to be a cure for everything — its worth appreciating all on its own. Neuroscientists compare the vagus to an orchestra conductor, harmonizing bodily systems to compose our conscious experience. Professor Linda Rinaman once said, “We’re not just brains in jars. Our thoughts and feelings are rooted in flesh and blood.”
12. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1
A．By sharing a story.
B．By creating a scene.
C．By asking a question.
D．By defining a concept.
13. What does the underlined word “conduit” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Channel.
B．Product.
C．Mirror.
D．Nature.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A．The popularity of a biological treatment.
B．The effectiveness of breathing exercises.
C．The misuse of unproven nerve therapies.
D．The evidence of vagus nerve’s functions.
15. What do Linda Rinaman’s words imply
A．Blood circulation determines our emotions.
B．Physical health is unrelated to mental states.
C．Body and mind interact to form experiences.
D．Our brain stores feelings separate from body.

The car turned onto the familiar road that led to Grandma’s farm. “Jude, this summer holiday will be a great chance for you to stay with your grandma,” Dad said as he drove.
The car engine wasn’t off before Grandma hugged me. I slowly dragged myself out of the car. “Jude, you look unhappy. Why ” Grandma asked. She acted like nothing bad had happened last time. Could I ask how much money her neighbor Mr. Jackson had lost because of my mistake Was he still upset with me “I’m fine,” I answered. “I’m just missing my computer puters are something I’m good at.” “That sounds disappointing,” Grandma nodded.
I liked visiting the farm during breaks before I messed things up last summer. Grandma lived alone, and Mr. Jackson was like family to her. Then one day I forgot to lock the gate and let the goats into his flower beds. He lost almost all his roses for the farmers’ market.
Now, back at the farm, I felt nervous. I was trying to hide in the room when I saw Mr. Jackson! He was opening the door and calling Grandma. “I need help!” he yelled. “Just a second for the freshly harvested roses!” That was when he saw me. I felt my heart tighten and was ready for his criticism. I deserved it. He had probably been waiting for this moment since last summer.
However, Mr. Jackson greeted me happily, “Great, Jude is here! Your grandma always tells us you are a wonderfully competent computer programmer.” I shook my head. “I am not competent. I am sorry I messed things up.” He was surprised and comforted me, “It was an accident. Being competent doesn’t mean you never make mistakes.”
I looked out of the window. There were piles of roses waiting to be sold. “Jude, can you help us We want to sell roses online. We have a computer and all the parts for our internet connection, but we just can’t set it up,” Grandma asked. No internet. They seemed to live in the 20th century.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Maybe I could be someone who was really competent.

第二节读后续写范文
Maybe I could be someone who was really competent. I accepted the task without hesitation. I first checked all the network equipment and found the router needed proper connection settings. Step by step, I taught Grandma and Mr. Jackson how to install software, register an online store and upload photos of fresh roses. I also wrote simple product descriptions for their roses and set reasonable prices. They listened carefully and thanked me repeatedly.
Within a few hours, orders for roses flooded in. Grandma and Mr. Jackson were overjoyed and kept praising me. They promised to share half of the profits with me, but I refused sincerely. That night, all of us sat together enjoying sweet rose tea. I realized mistakes do not define us. What truly matters is being brave to make up for faults and use our strengths to bring warmth to others.
