Odyssey of the Mind
Odyssey of the Mind (OM) is a long-running creative problem-solving competition that nurtures creativity, teamwork and critical thinking for students of all backgrounds. Distinct from traditional tests that value a single “right answer”, OM rewards independent thinking, original ideas and critical thinking through its unique open-ended problems developed by STE(A)M educators and experts. The program also integrates performance, art and cultural studies to deliver a well-rounded experience that has changed lives for over 40 years, helping all types of students learn to think outside the box.
Participation
For participation, students form teams of up to seven members, spending weeks or months collaborating to develop solutions for one of six new long-term problems released every year. Teams are divided by grade-level divisions and only compete against other teams in the same division and problem category. During the competition, teams have 8 minutes to present their solution, and get scores in two parts: the Long-Term score for meeting problem requirements, and the Style score for creativity in problem-specific categories.
Cost
To join OM, teams need to purchase a yearly membership, with one membership covering one team in one problem per division.
Standard Membership costs $290; Individual schools or multiple schools sharing a principal.
Additional Membership costs $190; only for schools that send two teams to the same problem and division.
Awards
OM also offers multiple special awards: the Ranatra Fusca Creativity Award for outstanding creative thinking, the OMER's Award for excellent sportsmanship and talent, the Odyssey of the Mind Creativity Award for extraordinary creative achievement, and the Odyssey of the Mind Spirit Award for individuals who promote cooperation and mutual respect.
21. What is special about OM's competition design compared with traditional exams

Student volunteers in Jiangxi act as guides for runners with visual impairments (障碍), helping them gain confidence, independence and lifelong friendships through the power of running.
Zhang Hongying, a 20-year-old dental student, has been volunteering for the Red Stars Charity program for a year. When she first wore a blindfold (眼罩) to experience blindness during training, she was too frightened to take a step. At first, Zhang thought her job was simple—just giving directions and avoiding obstacles. But she soon realized it was these runners that placed full trust in her.
Hu Liang, founder of Red Stars, has visual impairment himself. Learning that blind athletes at the Paralympic Games competed with the help of guide runners, he had a revelation: running could open new possibilities for people like him. Inspired by that, he founded the program in 2022 to bring hope and courage to people with vision loss. The program uses a specially designed guide rope—a sports neck gaiter twisted into a figure-eight—to connect volunteers and runners.
The program has transformed the lives of many participants. Chen Xinping, who lost his sight in 2010, said that if he drifted off course, the rope would gently guide him back, and that the program had given him the confidence to venture out, allowing him to go from relying on his family to being able to finish 6 kilometers confidently. Zhang Qian, who suffered depression after blindness, has improved to run 10 kilometers. Volunteers also grow alongside the runners. Zhang Hongying has completed a half marathon, and Man Xinyuan, a design major, has learned the importance of equality and sincere companionship.
From a small campus project, Red Stars has grown into a large support network with nearly 4,000 volunteers serving over 30,000 people. In 2024, Hu opened a rehabilitation center to help the blind live independently. The model is spreading to more universities, uniting more people to support the disabled.
24. What happened to Zhang Hongying when she first put on a blindfold
A．She ran faster than before.
B．She felt excited and curious.
C．She froze and could not move.
D．She immediately knew how to guide.
25. Why did Hu Liang found Red Stars
A．To provide jobs for university students.
B．To enhance people's running performance.
C．To set a new record in the Paralympic Games.
D．To support visually impaired people through running.
26. What does the underlined word “drifted” in Paragraph 4 mean
A．Wandered. B．Slowed. C．Paused. D．Hurried.
27. What does the story of Red Stars mainly show
A．Running can cure visual impairment.
B．Volunteers are more important than runners.
C．Shared trust and kindness bring warmth and changes.
D．Blind people can take part in all kinds of outdoor sports.
C
Anthropology (人类学) matters because it is the only discipline that studies humanity across every dimension at once: our biology, our cultures, our languages, and our deep past. That breadth gives it a unique ability to explain not just what humans do, but why we do it. The insights it produces shape a variety of fields.
Anthropology solves real problems in healthcare. Since the 1940s, anthropologists have helped healthcare providers understand cultural differences in health behaviors. When a patient refuses a treatment or misunderstands a diagnosis, the reason is often cultural, not medical. Anthropologists study doctor-patient interactions and identify where communication breaks down: Understanding what “being sick” means in a patient's cultural framework directly improves public health outcomes and has informed vaccination campaigns and HIV prevention efforts.
Anthropology helps build better products and panies like Xerox PARC, Intel, and Microsoft were among the first to hire anthropologists in the 1990s. Today, anthropologists work in user experience (UX) research teams at major tech companies. While a UX designer might ask whether someone can navigate (浏览) a menu, an anthropologist asks how a product fits into someone's daily life and what frustrations it could address. They bring training in empathy and systems thinking that shapes strategic decisions.
Anthropology preserves languages before they disappear. When a language dies, the knowledge encoded in it disappears too. Some languages contain detailed classifications of local plants, weather patterns, or ecological relationships that exist nowhere else. Linguistic anthropologists document endangered languages and preserve information about how language itself works. Every language that goes away removes a data point from our understanding of human cognition.
In conclusion, anthropology bridges biology and culture, connects past and present, and applies deep understanding of human behavior to solve practical problems in healthcare, technology, and language preservation. That is why anthropology remains indispensable to society.
28. What have anthropologists done in healthcare since the 1940s
A．They have helped doctors diagnose patients.
B．They have helped patients accept vaccination.
C．They have helped hospitals build public health framework.
D．They have helped healthcare providers grasp cultural differences.
29. What is the main feature of anthropologists in product design from Paragraph 3
A．They ask whether someone can navigate a menu.
B．They explore how a product fits into daily life better.
C．They ask whether a tech company hires UX designers.
D．They work with UX designers at major tech companies.
30. What can we infer about endangered languages
A．They have disappeared before being documented.
B．They are mainly spoken by people living in urban areas.
C．They contain unique knowledge about the local natural world.
D．They are easier to learn than widely spoken languages like English.
31. What is the suitable title of the passage
A．Why Is Anthropology Important
B．What Does Anthropology Cope with
C．When Will Anthropologists Take Action
D．How Can Anthropologists Preserve Society
D
In Australia, large-scale solar farms are projected to supply nearly 25% of the nation's electricity by 2050. This marks dramatic growth from the first utility-scale solar farm, which opened in Western Australia in 2010 with only 10 MW of capacity. The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) is now ensuring that renewable technology works alongside agriculture while improving efficiency through innovation.
A major challenge is balancing solar energy with agricultural needs. A 2024 CSIRO survey found that while solar farms enjoyed high public acceptance, rural residents worried about environmental impacts and reduced farmland. However, new spatial (空间的) modeling reveals that impacts on agricultural profit can be largely avoided. By strategically siting solar farms on lower-profitability grazing (放牧) land instead of prime agricultural areas, the impact drops by 90% while generating the same energy. In suitable areas, grazing sheep under solar panels can further reduce impacts, providing farmers with reliable, drought-proof income.
The performance of solar farms depends not only on size but also on layout and operation. Advanced modeling tools help maximize output per hectare (公顷) and optimize tracking systems so panels follow the sun's movement. These tools also improve forecasting when paired with large-scale batteries, which store excess energy during peak sunlight for later use. More accurate predictions ensure batteries are charged and ready to discharge when demand peaks in the late afternoon.
At the cell level, CSIRO is developing new technologies to boost efficiency. Self-cleaning coatings keep dirt and dust away while allowing panels to absorb more energy. Additionally, tandem (串联) cells are expected to deliver at least a 5% efficiency gain. At scale, this would enable a solar farm to power around 1,000 more homes using the same land area.
Maintenance is another critical factor. CSIRO researchers are using AI-powered robots equipped with cameras and sensors to autonomously inspect solar farms. These robots detect issues ranging from dust buildup to damaged wiring and dangerous hotspots, enabling workers to target only panels needing attention. This reduces costs, improves safety, and supports more resilient performance over time.
32. How does the author describe solar farms in Paragraph 1
A．By giving examples. B．By providing figures.
C．By quoting an expert. D．By defining a concept.
33. Which kind of area is the best place to site solar farms
A．On rural farmlands.
B．On suburban drought areas.
C．On primary agricultural sections.
D．On lower-profitability grazing land.
34. What can be inferred about the role of large-scale batteries from Paragraph 3
A．They maximize output and optimize tracking systems.
B．Their storage of electricity depends on sunlight and demand.
C．Their usage are limited in small residential solar installations.
D．They are becoming less common due to high maintenance costs.
35. What does the AI-powered robots suggest about the future maintenance
A．The robots can replace damaged panels automatically.
B．Human workers can not be needed in solar farm operations.
C．Maintenance will become more targeted, cost-effective and safer.
D．Solar farms will operate autonomously without any human intervention.

On the morning of my departure, I set out for Moscow. My finance was limited, so I took a regular bus. The journey was slow, and heavy traffic delayed us. By the time we reached the city, I could barely breathe from worry.
When I arrived at the airport, things got even worse. The flight gate was shut. I was alone, exhausted, and broken. It was also the last day of my visa. I cried, tears streaming down my face in front of the counter.
"You can take the plane tomorrow, Miss. But you have to pay one hundred dollars," the staff lady said. I didn't have that money. For me, it was a huge amount. I broke down and cried uncontrollably. I thought of my parents and what would happen to them if I was sent to jail without a visa. I prayed silently.
Suddenly, I heard a strange, deep voice. "Don't cry." When I turned around, I saw a Nigerian man standing there. "I am helpless," I said. "I have nothing to do but cry." Even though he didn't know my full story, he quickly stepped up to the counter. He opened his wallet and handed over the money. He helped me with the papers without asking anything from me. God really heard my prayers and sent a miracle that day. The man even looked out for me right up until I left from our connecting flight in Dubai.
Before saying goodbye, I took down the man's postal address.

67. 读后续写范文
After returning to my country, I sat down to write him a thank-you card. I described my desperate situation at the airport and how his generous help saved me from a terrible trouble. I told him I would always keep his kindness in mind and pass on this warmth to people in need around me. I put some local special snacks into the parcel and posted it to his address without delay. Every day I checked the mailbox, eagerly waiting for his reply.
I never received a reply, but I still remember him with love and respect. His selfless help taught me that kindness has no national boundaries. Since then, I always offer a hand to strangers who meet with difficulties. Whenever I see someone trapped in trouble, I recall the Nigerian man at the airport. His kindness has become a lifelong light guiding me to be a warm and helpful person.
