Ratings: Food 4.2; Atmosphere 4.5; Service 4.4
Kelsey Pelham October 2025 Rating stars: ★★★★★
I come here regularly to meet with friends. It’s a cheerful space with lots of natural light, local art decorating the walls and books available in the lower room. As for the menu, there is a spirit of innovation with new creations offered seasonally. Last thing I will comment on is that this coffee shop participates in community partnerships and really seems to practice local sourcing as much as possible, and they advertise special events and opportunities each month. A stand-out coffee shop we are blessed to have.
Aldo Lavalle November 2025 Rating stars: ★★★☆☆
Pretty good first experience overall. Spacious dining area, lots of sitting options, very homey-feel...Has WiFi, clearly displayed password. Wide menu. Parking can be a drawback at first glance until you come across the extra parking lot sign in the back. Since the actual parking lot near the building is super small, only a few spaces, there should be a clear sign at the front where it says “additional parking in the back”, or else you won’t know it’s there. Overall would recommend.
21. Which aspect of University Coffee received the highest rating
A. Relaxing atmosphere.
B. Organic coffee.
C. Approachable service.
D. Farm-fresh food.
22. What does Pelham praise the coffee shop for
A. Global sourcing practices.
B. Classic old-fashioned coffee.
C. Popularity among local artists.
D. Active community participation.
23. What does Lavalle suggest about the shop’s parking
A. Adding a parking sign.
B. Enlarging the front area.
C. Building another parking lot.
D. Closing the back parking lot.
B
As my kids and I walked around a community garden the other week, I asked them what veggies they could identify. We were in Alberta, where many plants were still in their early stages of growth — I wasn’t optimistic about what the kids would be able to name by leaves alone. However, they called out, “Tomatoes! Potatoes! Carrots!” Their answers made me even prouder than if they’d just explained some knowledge of physics. All the time we’ve spent in our home garden is actually sinking in.
Although I’ve been gardening for years, this year feels different. Spending time in the garden has helped me with my own well-being at a trying time, and it has given me a new way to connect with my kids when I’m running out of steam.
My garden is wild, full of life, and a bit messy. Honestly, the same goes for my kids — and I don’t expect perfection from them either. Unless you’re relying on your produce for money or food, it’s a good idea to have your expectations for gardening as low as possible. My kids say they “love the garden” but “don’t like gardening” — I think they mean they don’t like the chores. If I have some weeding or potting (盆栽) to do, I’ll also have some entertainment for them, which can be as simple as “find these 10 rocks” or “wet this plot (小块土地) with your water gun”.
Involving the kids in every stage of the process can be powerful and fun, even if what you have are just a few containers on a balcony. “Gardening allows us to spend free, unscheduled outdoor time with our kids,” writes journalist and author Shannon Brescher Shea in her book Growing Sustainable Together. “Let your kids lead the way. Invite them to participate in every step, from planting to harvesting, but don’t force it.”
One of the best things about gardens is tne food, but frankly, my kids are not going to be pushing greens into their mouths any time soon. Finoning uses for garden goods that go beyond food production can spark interest and supply you with some unexpectedly good results.
24. What made the author real proud in the community garden
A. Her kids mastered reel physics knowledge well.
B. Her kids grew various veggies in the garden.
C. Her kids explained plants growth stages clearly.
D. Her kids could recognize vegetables by leaves.
25. What does the author do to draw kids’ attention to gardening
A. By including fun activities.
B. By rewarding them in the end.
C. By letting them take short rests.
D. By offering regular encouragement.
26. What can we infer from Shannon Brescher’s words
A. Outdoor activities are much better than indoor ones.
B. Gardening helps kids improve their physical health.
C. Parents should respect kids’ willingness in gardening.
D. Kids should be pressed by parents to experience gardening.
27. What is probably the best title of the passage
A. Rules for a picture-perfect Yard
B. Ways to Harvest Garden-fresh Produce
C. Identifying Vegetables by Leaves
D. Connecting with Kids Through Gardening
C
Have you ever questioned why someone is being unusually kind You’re not alone. We often unconsciously look for hidden motives (动机) behind generous acts, a reaction psychologists call “do-gooder derogation”. This means we may judge a seemingly selfless person more harshly (严厉地) than someone who is openly self-interested.
A classic experiment, the “public goods game” illustrates this. Participants are given money and can choose to contribute to a shared pot, which grows and is later divided equally. While contributing increases the group’s total gain, selfish individuals can contribute little and still benefit. Surprisingly, the most generous contributors in this game are often criticized as much as the selfish “free riders”.
Psychologist Nichola Raihani suggests we are all divided by a social “status game”. We are doubtful of those who might be using kindness to build their reputation (名声). This doubt is at the heart of the “tainted altruism effect”. Imagine a friend, Andy, volunteers at a homeless shelter. If we discover his true motive is to date the shelter manager, we judge him more sharply than if he took a cheap shop job for the same reason. The charitable context makes the hidden motive seem worse.
Researcher Sebastian Hafenbradl explored this further. His studies confirmed that we judge people like Andy more harshly when they seek social rewards from a good deed. Interestingly, the judgment softens if the person is honest about their motive beforehand, as this removes the “unearned social reward” of appearing purely altruistic (利他的). Furthermore, people who do good merely to feel good about themselves are judged less harshly than those seeking to strengthen their reputation. Both acts contain self-interest, but seeking public approval is seen as more dishonest.
So, is any act truly selfless Perhaps not. But if the result is more kindness in the world, maybe we can forgive a little mixed motivation. We tend to judge people by their inner intentions, ignoring that few decisions come from pure selflessness. Even small self-concerns do not rid the warm one brings. As long as good deeds benefit others, minor selfish thoughts deserve understanding rather than blame.
28. What is the purpose of mentioning the “public goods game” in Paragraph 2
A. To give a definition of a social theory.
B. To explain the rules of a well-known game.
C. To introduce a popular economic experiment.
D. To give an example of a psychological finding.
29. Which of the following indicates the “tainted altruism effect”
A. An athlete’s fair win brings public honor.
B. A firm’s charity donation aims at a tax cut.
C. A student’s hard work targets a scholarship.
D. A volunteer’s sharing seeks to inspire others.
30. What did Sebastian Hafenbradl’s studies find
A. Seeking public approval shows the least honesty.
B. Hiding selfish motives results in gentler criticism.
C. Admitting selfish motives in advance reduces blame.
D. Acting for self-satisfaction draws the strongest criticism.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards mixed-motive kindness
A. Acceptable.
B. Uncaring.
C. Confused.
D. Negative.
D
Did you know that the sun has weather The sun’s weather, called space weather, can affect the entire solar system. The sun is continuously blowing a stream of tiny particles (颗粒) in all directions, called the solar wind, which is mostly made up of hydrogen (氢). It blows at hundreds of kilometres per second and has been blowing onto the Earth for billions of years.
But why hasn’t it crashed into us Actually, the Earth has a magnetic field (磁场), which causes the planet to act like a giant magnet in space and protects the Earth from the solar wind. The Earth’s magnetic field is what causes a compass to work. The magnetic field can’t be seen, but we can measure it with magnets and other scientific instruments.
The particles that make up the solar wind are made to change direction by the Earth’s magnetic field, so they mostly pass around the Earth without crashing into us. But it’s not an immaculate protection — because of the shape of the Earth’s magnetic field, close to the North and South Poles, a little bit of the solar wind can sometimes get through and crash directly into the atmosphere.
This crash happens between very tiny particles at an incredible speed. Therefore, instead of throwing off smaller pieces or exploding, the particles give off light, causing polar lights. The colors of the light tell us what type of atmospheric particle is being crashed into by the solar wind. For example, red and green are from oxygen.
What the polar lights, also known as auroras, exactly look like depends on the state of the Earth’s magnetic field and the atmosphere; but more directly depends on space weather. Sometimes the sun produces a storm, which typically will cause an impressive view of auroras only for people who live in the far north and south of the world, underneath the part of the Earth’s magnetic field that can let the solar wind through. But sometimes, a really powerful storm can cause the auroras to be seen in some other places as well.
32. What is mentioned about the magnetic field
A. It can be measured by a compass.
B. It saves the Earth from external hits.
C. It attracts the solar wind to the Earth.
D. It can be seen with scientific instruments.
33. What does the underlined word “immaculate” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Impressive. B. Common. C. Perfect. D. Changeable.
34. What determines the color of an aurora according to the passage
A. How fast the solar wind is moving.
B. Which part of the world the aurora appears in.
C. How strong the Earth’s magnetic field is at the time.
D. Which atmospheric particle is struck by the solar wind.
35. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Powerful storms happen frequently on the sun.
B. Space weather may widen the Earth’s magnetic field.
C. Stronger space weather can expand auroras’ viewing area.
D. Auroras’ appearance relies mostly on the Earth’s atmosphere.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Hotels do not price rooms in the same way a shop prices a lamp or a suitcase. ___36___ The same room in the same building can be worth very different amounts depending on the day, season, and local demand. A beachfront hotel in summer is operating differently from the same room during a quieter month. Even weekends and weekdays can produce different patterns, depending on the type of traveller the hotel attracts.
Then what actually causes prices to move Several factors shape hotel room rates, sometimes all at once. Demand is the obvious one. Booking window also matters. Some travelers book months in advance, while others leave it until the last minute. ___37___ If rooms are selling earlier than usual, rates may increase sooner. If there is unexpected availability closer to arrival, prices may be adjusted again. Competition plays a role too. ___38___ If similar nearby hotels are filling up, or charging more, that affects how a hotel positions its own rates.
Nowadays, many hotels rely on management software to make pricing more responsive. Rather than guessing or checking rates occasionally, these tools help hotels analyse booking trends, monitor market signals, and update pricing in line with real demand. ___39___ It means hotels are using better information to make better decisions. Instead of relying on instinct (直觉) alone, they can react to changes in occupancy, pace, and market conditions more confidently.
Understanding how hotel pricing works can make booking decisions feel less frustrating. Travelling outside peak periods, avoiding major local event-dates, or booking earlier can all help. It also helps to compare dates rather than looking at one night in isolation (孤立状态). ___40___
A. Hotels do not operate in isolation.
B. Hotels track these patterns closely.
C. A room’s value depends heavily on timing.
D. If a room goes unsold tonight, that money is gone for ever.
E. Hotels are under pressure to respond faster and more accurately.
F. This does not mean prices are invented at random by a machine.
G. A small shift in travel plans can sometimes lead to a much better rate.

That evening at home, John ___49___ the conversation with Sarah.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Aveline works as a waitress in a small restaurant in Oakland, California. She came to the city alone half a year ago and lives a simple life — her only way to get around is an old electric motorcycle (摩托车), which she bought with her hard-earned money. Every day after work, she rides it back to her small apartment, tired but hopeful, because the motorcycle carries her dream of saving money to treat her sick mother back home.
Last Friday evening, after a busy workday, Aveline walked out of the restaurant happily, looking forward to a relaxing weekend. But when she got to the place where she parked her motorcycle, her smile disappeared immediately. The battery of her electric motorcycle was gone, leaving only an empty frame (框架) standing there, lonely and helpless. She looked everywhere anxiously, but there was no sign of the battery.
Feeling sad and helpless, Aveline took out her phone and posted a short message on her social media, “The thief is so kind — he stole my battery but left me the empty frame!” It was a sad joke, full of the hardships of a hardworking waitress. She did not expect anyone to notice her post, let alone her boss, Soren, who was always quiet and serious.
Soren has run the restaurant for five years. He always cares about his staff in his own way. He often asks them about their lives and helps them solve small problems quietly. When he happened to read Aveline’s post that night, he felt worried. He knew how important the electric motorcycle was to her — she had mentioned her difficult family situation to him once when she was working overtime. He knew he should do something for Aveline.
The next morning, Aveline arrived at the restaurant, still sad. She didn’t want to talk to anyone and just kept busy with her work. When the morning rush was over, Soren called her to his office.
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。
Paragraph 1: Aveline walked in nervously, wondering if she’d done something wrong.

Dear Alan,
How’s everything going
I’m writing to invite you to take part in the “Read to the Elderly” activity organized by our school this Saturday.
The activity will take place at the Sunshine Nursing Home near our school. We’ll spend the morning reading aloud to the elderly—anything from classic stories and poems to newspapers and magazines. The goal is to bring them comfort and joy through reading, ease their loneliness and build a warm connection between two generations. If interested, please bring a book that you think the elderly would enjoy and arrive at the school gate by 8:00 a.m.. Besides, remember to speak slowly and patiently, and be a good listener if they want to share their own stories.
This will be a truly meaningful activity. I really hope you can join us. Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes,
Li Hua
读后续写范文
Paragraph 1: Aveline walked in nervously, wondering if she’d done something wrong. She stood there, head lowered, afraid to meet Soren’s eyes. Soren smiled softly and motioned for her to sit down. “I saw your post last night,” he said gently, his voice carrying none of its usual seriousness. Aveline looked up in surprise — she had never imagined her quiet boss would notice such a small thing. “I know how much that motorcycle means to you, especially with your mother’s situation,” he continued. Before she could respond, he reached into his drawer and pulled out a set of brand-new keys, sliding them across the desk toward her. “These are for you.”
Paragraph 2: Aveline held the keys to the new motorcycle in surprise. She stared at them, her mind blank for a moment. “But... why would you do this for me ” she finally whispered, her voice trembling as tears blurred her vision. Soren leaned back and said softly, “I’ve watched you work hard every single day since you arrived. When I read your post, I knew I couldn’t just stand by.” He paused, and then added, “A boss should take care of his staff like family.” Aveline could barely speak, thanking him over and over again, promising to repay his kindness with even harder work. That evening, as she rode the new motorcycle home through the familiar streets of Oakland, the cool wind brushed against her face and a warmth spread through her chest. She understood now that kindness often appears in the most unexpected places, quietly reminding us that we are never truly alone.
