Lin Ying-ju, a Taiwanese businesswoman living in Finland, has found a special way to make soap. She uses used cooking oil to make handmade soap. Her company, JooSoap Studio, now sells soap to famous places, including a Michelin green star restaurant called Nolla.
Before moving to Finland to study at Aalto University, Lin learned how to make soap at Taichung Maple Eco-School in Taiwan. This school has taught environmental education since 1996. Twenty years ago, this kind of soap was not very common in Europe.
One day, Lin casually mentioned this technique during a university discussion. The enthusiastic response from her classmates encouraged her to turn the idea into a business. After graduation, a difficult job market and visa troubles stood in her way. So she used her special skills to create an unusual career path. JooSoap Studio started with classroom demonstration (演示) in 2011 and was officially registered (注册) in late 2014. Lin said that starting her own business gave her the freedom that regular jobs could not offer at that difficult time.
Adapting to Finnish culture has been key to her success. In Taiwan, big workshops can make thousands of soap bars a day. But Finnish people prefer a slower, more careful way of living — they like to make only what they need. So Lin changed her business to work seasonally, and this actually helped make her brand (品牌) stronger.
Recently, Lin visited Japan to connect with Sekken no Machi, the nonprofit organization that started this soap-making practice in Asia over forty years ago. This visit helped strengthen the international network of people who care about sustainable (可持续的) living.
4. Where did Lin first learn the skills of making soap
A．At Aalto University.
B．At Sekken no Machi.
C．At Taichung Maple Eco-School.
D．At a Michelin green star restaurant.
5. Why did Lin start her business instead of finding a regular job
A．She wanted to make more money.
B．Regular jobs had many limitations.
C．Her classmates asked her to do business.
D．Handmade soaps were not popular then.
6. What did Lin do recently to strengthen her international network
A．She wrote a book about her career.
B．She visited Sekken no Machi in Japan.
C．She opened new workshops in Taiwan.
D．She produced thousands of soap bars daily.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．From Waste Oil to Handmade Soap
B．History of Soap Making in Asia
C．Ways to Start a Business in Finland
D．Turning Waste into Business Success
C
Cancer can appear almost anywhere in the body, but it is very rare in the heart. It's reported that less than 1% of cancers start in the heart, and disease that begins elsewhere seldom spreads to the blood-pumping organ. Considering the heart's constant motion and rich blood supply, this discovery has long puzzled scientists.
To find out, researchers did experiments on mice. One heart chamber (心室) of each mouse was made to stop pumping blood. Then they put a second heart in each mouse's neck. This second heart had less mechanical (机械的) stress than the original one. Thus, one heart continued its normal forceful beating while the other experienced gentler physical conditions.
Then, researchers put cancer cells (细胞) into both hearts. After two weeks, the cancer spread widely in the second heart. However, in the original, beating heart, the cancer hardly grew. The difference in cancer growth between the two hearts was noticeable. The team also did tests with man-made heart tissues. They found that cancer cells grew better in still tissues than in tissues that were made to beat like a real heart.
So what makes the beating heart so unfriendly to cancer The researchers discovered that mechanical stress promoted a protein in cancer cells called Nesprin-2, which can change how DNA works and helps stop the cancer from growing. In other words, the movement created by a beating heart cause a natural anti-cancer defence to start working.
The research team is now looking into whether they can use similar mechanical stress in other parts of the body, like the skin or breast, to prevent cancer. They are also trying to find out whether heart diseases that put additional pressure on the heart, like high blood pressure, might offer extra protection against cancer.
8. What experimental operation did the researchers perform on the mice
A．They stopped the beating of the entire heart.
B．They put cancer cells into the original heart only.
C．They removed the original heart and replaced it with a new one.
D．They disabled one chamber of the heart and put another in the neck.
9. What happened to the cancer cells put into the original beating heart
A．They increased at a slow but steady rate.
B．They grew fast and spread to other tissues.
C．They showed little to no significant growth.
D．They were completely removed by the heart tissue.
10. What is the main purpose of paragraph 4
A．To list possible causes of heart cancer.
B．To explain the heart's natural defence.
C．To describe the role of Nesprin-2 protein.
D．To introduce a new cancer treatment for humans.
11. What might the discovery lead to in the future according to the research team
A．Using mechanical stress to treat heart diseases.
B．Confirming high blood pressure as a cancer cause.
C．Proving that cancer cannot grow in skin or breast.
D．Testing mechanical stress on other body parts to prevent cancer.
D
In 1986, a nuclear power plant (核电厂) in Chernobyl exploded. It was a terrible disaster. Radioactive (放射性的) material spread across the land. People had to leave their homes immediately, but the animals stayed. For decades, this area remained largely empty of humans.
Today, this land tells a surprising story. Paradoxically, the absence of humans has helped wildlife more than radiation has hurt it. Wolves, bears, and deer are now common where people once lived. Wolf populations in this area are seven times larger than those in nearby areas. Without people, nature has grown back. Forests have spread, and rivers have run cleaner.
However, the situation is not entirely good. Birds face problems from both radioactive heat and climate change. Scientists still disagree about the long-term effects of radiation on animals.
Scientists often visit the area to study wildlife. In 2016, biologist Pablo Burraco found that frogs living in badly polluted areas had darker skin than those living elsewhere. He believes that higher melanin(黑色素) levels may help protect the frogs from radiation. But not everyone agrees. A few researchers suggest that the darker skin could simply be a common change among frogs. Other scientists question whether the dark color is really an adaptation(适应) to radiation.
Similar debates exist for other species. Scientists have found genetic changes in feral dogs and bank voles. However, it is difficult to say whether these changes are caused by radiation or by other environmental factors. For example, differences in food, temperature, or living space might also play a role. The forest has also changed, creating entirely different habitats.
As one geographer puts it, Chernobyl’s ecological story is a mix of recovery, adaptation, and unsolved problems. The area is full of life, but its future remains unclear. Scientists continue to watch and learn, hoping to better understand how nature responds to disaster.
12. What could the underlined word “Paradoxically” in paragraph 2 be replaced by
A．Unexpectedly. B．Sadly. C．Possibly. D．Immediately.
13. Why does the author include information about both wolves and birds
A．To give examples of both good and bad results.
B．To show wolves are more important than birds.
C．To argue that climate change is worse than radiation.
D．To prove that radiation hurts all animals the same way.
14. Which of the following best shows the author’s opinion about Chernobyl
A．Nature has already recovered.
B．Radiation has only hurt wildlife.
C．Humans should move back to the area.
D．Wildlife is recovering but problems remain.
15. What can we infer from the passage
A．Scientists agree on radiation’s long-term effects.
B．Wolves are more harmed by radiation than frogs.
C．Radiation has helped most animals in Chernobyl.
D．The effects of radiation on wildlife are still debated.

Renny was an eleven-year-old girl who liked putting things off. She often delayed her school assignments (任务). Her weekends were usually filled with dreams of hanging out with friends or staying at her grandparents’ house.
One weekend, Renny planned to go to her grandparents’ place. When her mother asked if she had any schoolwork to finish, Renny shook her head and said no, hiding the fact that she had a math assignment due soon. Her mother agreed to drop her off. Renny promised she would study later, but the weekend passed quickly with fun and relaxation.
By Monday, she had forgotten the assignment. When her teacher asked for it, Renny lied that she had left it at home. The teacher told her to bring it the next day. But when the next day came, she still had not done the work. She made up another excuse, saying her cousin had spilled (溢出) ink on it. The teacher raised an eyebrow doubtfully. Her friend asked how long her cousin was staying, and Renny answered, “Until Saturday,” she lied again.
That evening, her mother mentioned that the teacher had called about the missing assignment. Renny insisted (坚持说) she had already handed it in. The lies began to grow, each one demanding (要求) another to hold them up. Her friend later questioned her again, and Renny struggled to keep the story straight, nervously saying he had left early.
She started to feel anxious. At home, she noticed uncertainty in her mother’s voice. At school, her teacher’s eyes seemed sharper, and her friend grew cold. The small lie had grown into a web(网) she could not escape.

Possible version 1:
Care for Ourselves, Care for Our Health
As the saying goes, health is wealth. Without it, neither our studies nor our daily lives can truly flourish.
So how do we protect our health To begin with, it’s good to eat a balanced diet—— have meals on time and drink enough water each day. Also, we’d better take regular exercise, even something as simple as a 20-minute walk after dinner. Most importantly, don’t forget our mental well-being. We can relax by listening to music, chatting with friends, or keeping a diary. It's no good staying up late or spending too much time on the phone.
Let's start today. Small, consistent efforts add up to a healthier future.(103words)
Possible version 2:
Care for Ourselves, Care for Our Health
As the saying goes, health is wealth. Without a sound body and a peaceful mind, neither academic success nor everyday joy is truly attainable.
How, then, can we safeguard our health First, we’d better adopt a wholesome diet—— eat more fresh produce, cut back on junk food, and stay away from sugary drinks. Second, we’re supposed to get moving daily, whether it's running, swimming, or playing ball games, for at least30 minutes. Third, never underestimate the power of rest, for eight hours of sleep each night is a must for teenagers. Finally, tend to your mental health by managing stress, sharing feelings, and staying connected with others.
Now is the time to act. Even small daily changes can work wonders. After all, our health shapes our future.(122words)
第二节读后续写(满分25分)
Paragraph 1
Then one day, the truth came out. Renny’s mother found the unfinished math assignment in her schoolbag. She sat down beside Renny and asked calmly,“Is there something you want to tell me ” Renny’s face turned red. She hesitated for a while, not daring to meet her mom's sharp eyes.Unable to lie anymore, she finally admitted everything—— the forgotten homework, the imaginary cousin, and all the excuses. Hearing this, her mother pulled her into a hug, saying gently,“You know what you should do tomorrow, honey.”(81words)
Paragraph 2
After admitting everything, Renny felt a mix of shame and relief. She felt her heart sink but also strangely lighter. The next day, she apologized sincerely to her teacher and completed the assignment honestly. She promised to the teacher and her friend that such things would never happen again. They both forgave her. Renny learned that lies only made things worse, while telling the truth, though hard at first, brought real peace. From then on, whenever she wanted to put off a task, she remembered the web of lies she had once woven —— and chose to be honest instead.(89words)
