Billy Moore doesn’t need eyes to find what’s wrong with a car. He uses his hands, ears, and memory.
Moore lost his sight at 22 in a chemical accident. Doctors said he would never work again. But Moore, who loved cars since childhood, refused to accept that. He learned to live without sight and then shocked everyone by opening his own car repair shop in Austin, Texas.
Today, Moore’s Car Repair is well-known locally. People drive from far away for his judgement. He feels engine parts, listens for strange sounds, and senses unusual shaking. He can identify a bad spark plug (火花塞) by its surface and a worn part by its high noise. “I see with my fingers,” Moore often says.
His skill is impressive. Once, a man brought a 1972 Ford Mustang that other mechanics (机械工) had failed to fix. Moore just spent 20 minutes with the engine and found the problem.
Moore’s success isn’t just about technical ability. He remembers every customer and treats them like family. He asks about their lives and recalls their stories. When a customer’s car broke down on the highway at midnight, Moore drove out in his night clothes to help.
Moore has trained three sighted learners and speaks at technical schools. He challenges the idea that mechanical work requires eyesight. “The biggest problem isn’t blindness,” he says. “It’s other people’s low expectations.”
Now 52, Moore has no plans to retire. On his shop wall hangs a quote: “The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.” — Helen Keller
24. How does Billy Moore find car faults
A．By reading repair books. B．By touching and listening.
C．By asking other mechanics. D．By using special glasses.
25. The underlined word “judgement” in Paragraph 3 means ____.
A．opinion B．tool C．car D．dream
26. What can we infer about Billy Moore
A．He only fixes old Ford cars.
B．He cares deeply about his customers.
C．He hates people with good eyesight.
D．He will close his shop soon.
27. What is the best title for the text
A．A Blind Mechanic with Great Vision
B．A Famous Car Repair Shop in Texas
C．Ways to Fix Car Engines Without Sight
D．Helen Keller’s Words Inspire Workers
C
You put on scent in the morning, but by noon you can’t smell it. A coworker lights a candle, and soon the scent seems gone. What’s happening The answer lies in a phenomenon called olfactory fatigue — your nose’s way of ignoring continuous smells.
Your sense of smell works like this: smell molecules (分子) enter your nose and stick to special cells. These cells send signals to your brain’s smell center, which identifies the scent. It’s a highly sensitive (敏感的) system — humans can notice some smells at extremely low levels.
But when the same smell stays around you, your cells become less sensitive. They stop sending strong signals, even though the scent remains. This isn’t a mistake. It’s a natural skill. Your brain ignores unchanging information to focus on new, possibly important things. After all, if you’re living near a bakery, you don’t always need to be aware of the smell of bread. But you do need to notice if smoke starts coming in.
Olfactory fatigue happens faster than you might plete adaptation to a smell can occur within two minutes of continuous exposure (接触). The effect is also smell-specific: you may ignore your rose candle but still smell the neighbor’s fish.
For the same reason, you usually can’t smell yourself. Your brain ignores your own scent because it’s always present. This is why you might not notice your body smell, while others can smell it clearly when they first meet you.
Scientists are now using this knowledge. They are creating “digital noses”, which never tire and can monitor air quality or find gas escape around the clock. They don’t suffer from olfactory fatigue.
So next time your candle seems to lose its scent, don’t blame the candle. Your nose is simply staying ready for the new while letting the familiar fade.
28. What is olfactory fatigue
A．The nose can’t smell new scents.
B．The brain ignores long-lasting smells.
C．Smell molecules disappear quickly.
D．People lose their sense of smell forever.
29. Why does our brain develop olfactory fatigue
A．To protect our smell cells from damage.
B．To help us focus on new important smells.
C．To make us get used to bad smells faster.
D．To stop us from smelling ourselves.
30. What advantage do digital noses have over human noses
A．They can smell all kinds of flowers.
B．They never suffer from olfactory fatigue.
C．They can work only for two minutes each day.
D．They can change the smell in the air.
31. What’s the main idea of the text
A．The science behind olfactory fatigue and its application.
B．How our brain receives different smell signals.
C．Reasons why people can’t smell their own bodies.
D．The invention of digital noses for daily use.
D
Walk through any city after dark, and you will find street lamps, office windows, and LED signs fill the night sky with a warm orange or white light. Scientists call this light pollution. For decades, researchers have known that light pollution harms nocturnal animals, affects sleep, and wastes energy. Now, a team at Vanderbilt University has discovered another hidden cost: it makes pollen (花粉) seasons longer, causing more serious pollen allergies (过敏).
The researchers used a special tool — satellite images. These satellites orbit Earth at night and take detailed pictures of artificial (人工的) light across the planet. The team compared these light maps with data on pollen levels in the eastern United States.
The results were striking. In dark, the countryside with little artificial lighting, pollen counts were significant for around 170 to 210 days per year. But in brightly lit cities like New York, significant pollen was found for up to 300 days — nearly two months longer!
Not only was the season longer, but it was also worse. In brightly lit areas, 27 percent of pollen-season days reached serious levels. In dark areas, only 17 percent of days were that bad.
The answer lies in biology. Plants use photoperiodism — they measure the length of night and day to know when to flower. When artificial lights shine at night, they confuse plants into “thinking” the day is longer than it really is. As a result, trees and grasses start flowering earlier and keep giving off pollen for a longer time.
The researchers suggest several practical steps. Cities could reduce light brightness, use covers on lamps to aim light downward instead of upward, or set up sensors (感应器) that turn lights off when no one is nearby. Changing to lighting with less blue light may also help, since blue wavelengths appear to have the strongest effect on plants.
For now, if you have pollen allergies and live in a bright city, you might have one more reason to wish for darker nights.
32. What makes pollen seasons longer in cities
A．Artificial night light pollution. B．More trees planted in cities.
C．Higher temperature in cities. D．More rainy days in cities.
33. What did the researchers use to study light pollution
A．Plant samples. B．Satellite images.
C．City street maps. D．Allergy medical records.
34. The word “photoperiodism” in Paragraph 5 refers to plants’ ability to ____.
A．grow fast under strong sunlight
B．judge time by day and night length
C．produce large amounts of pollen
D．survive in bright city environments
35. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about
A．Different kinds of street lamps in cities.
B．The bad influence of blue light on humans.
C．Practical ways to reduce light pollution.
D．How sensors control street light brightness.

72. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，词数80左右。
Last month, I joined a youth volunteer group in our community, whose mission was to bring warmth to lonely elderly people living alone. My first task was to visit Mr. Carter, an old man living on Maple Street. The group leader told me that Mr. Carter had become extremely cold and silent after losing his wife to cancer two years ago, and few volunteers could bear staying with him for more than ten minutes. Despite the warning, I decided to give it a try.
On a Saturday morning, carrying a box of homemade cookies, I knocked on his heavy wooden door. The door opened a crack, through which a pair of sharp eyes stared at me with doubt. “What do you want ” he asked in an impatient voice. I introduced myself briefly, handing him the cookies. Without a word of thanks, he took them and shut the door right in front of me. Feeling disappointed but not beaten, I stood there for a moment before leaving.
The following week, I brought him several books about gardening, having noticed that his overgrown yard once contained beautiful roses. This time, the door opened wider. He stared at the books for a long while, his eyes softening a little. “My wife, who loved roses more than anything else, used to tend this garden,” he said in a much softer voice. We didn’t talk much, but he allowed me to sit on his porch(门廊)for a while, something he had never allowed any volunteer to do before.
On my third visit, I found him struggling to fix a broken wooden birdhouse with a hammer (锤子) in the yard, his shaky hands making the task almost impossible. He looked deeply discouraged, letting out a deep sigh (叹气). “I can’t do it anymore,” he whispered, almost to himself. I sat down beside him on the grass and said, “Maybe I can help, if you don’t mind.”
续写开头：With a moment’s hesitation, he handed me the hammer.

The Value of Money
Good morning, everyone.
In my opinion, money is a useful tool but not the whole of life. It can buy daily necessities but never true happiness or love.
I have simple money management habits. I keep a daily account to record my pocket money and save half of my allowance every month. I never waste money on useless things.
Money serves us, so we should use it wisely instead of chasing it blindly.
Thank you!

With a moment’s hesitation, he handed me the hammer. I carefully held the wood steady and nailed the broken parts together. We chatted about his wife’s roses while working. When the birdhouse was fixed, a faint smile appeared on his face. He invited me to sit and told me many warm stories of his late wife. From then on, he looked forward to my visits and slowly opened his heart to others.
