A
New Zealand’s coastlines are dotted with hidden treasures that mix natural scenery, rich local culture, and unique wildlife, each coastal spot telling a vivid story of the country’s land and people. Here are four must-visit coastal parks that perfectly capture the spirit of New Zealand.
Abel Tasman National Park (South Island)
This coastal paradise is famous for its golden beaches and crystal-clear waters. The park’s visitor center in Marahau keeps a rare collection of Māori coastal artifacts, including a well-preserved 19th-century boat, once used by local tribes for coastal trade and cultural ceremonies.
Akaroa Harbour (South Island)
Akaroa Harbour is a peaceful sheltered bay shaped by ancient volcanic activity with gentle waters and rolling green hills. The charming town center is famous for local cultural restaurants, and with the colorful French-style buildings on the coast.
Bay of Islands (North Island)
This breathtaking region of over 140 subtropical islands is a true heaven for diverse marine life. Visitors can swim with dolphins, explore historic landmarks like the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, and wander the quiet streets of the small town of Paihia. But the best part is kina, a fresh local food served at cozy waterfront cafes with ocean views.
Coromandel Peninsula (North Island)
This relaxing North Island coastal spot is well-known for Cathedral Cove’s famous natural arch and Hot Water Beach. It also has soft white-sand beaches, small fishing villages, and paths leading to coastal views and hidden waterfalls.

Turkuaz, a Turkish restaurant, has been a special place for my family since it opened in 2005. It was my late father’s favourite, and he first took us there as a family. We quickly fell in love with it.
Over the years, Turkuaz became much more than just a place to dine. We celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and other important moments there. We shared dishes, enjoying not only the food but also the warmth of being together. The restaurant saw our family grow — from my generation to our own children.
When my dad passed away last October, Turkuaz became a place of memory and comfort. The owner, who learned about the death of my father, greeted us with sadness and kindness. They have seen generations of our family come through the restaurant door.
Now, my own children, aged six and eight, name it “Granddad’s Turkish place”. It is a part of our childhood, too. In a world where countless local restaurants are closing, places like Turkuaz powerfully remind us of the importance of community. They give us a space where we feel safe, where we laugh, cry, and share our stories.
Though my dad is no longer with us, his favourite restaurant continues to bring our family together. It is not just a restaurant — it is part of our family’s story, a place that holds our history and our hearts.
4. What do we know about the author’s father from paragraph 1
A．He was the founder of Turkuaz. B．He managed a family restaurant nearby.
C．He introduced Turkuaz to his friends first. D．He thought highly of Turkuaz.
5. What can be inferred about Turkuaz from the text
A．It has accompanied the author’s family for decades.
B．It has gained nationwide popularity for its food.
C．It has been faced with the risk of being closed down.
D．It has improved its service since the author’s father died.

A．Doubtful. B．Grateful. C．Tolerant. D．Uncaring.
7. What is the text mainly about
A．The unforgettable memories of a lost family member.
B．The key role of local restaurants in community life.
C．A restaurant that carries a family’s love and memories.
D．The emotional connection between restaurants and customers.
C
When I was a child, my grandmother used to tell me something strange on hot days. She would say, “Drink a cup of hot tea. It will cool you down.” As a seven-year-old boy, I thought this was silly. On a hot day, I wanted cold lemon juice or ice cream, not hot tea. But it turns out my grandmother may have been right.
People have been drinking hot drinks in warm places for hundreds of years. In some countries, tea is very popular, even though the weather is hot. Many people living in deserts or tropical areas drink hot tea every day. Scientists have now started to study why this might help.
In 2012, a scientist named Ollie Jay did an experiment. He asked people to ride bikes in warm weather while drinking water at different temperatures. The scientists then studied how hot their bodies became. At first, it seemed that drinking warm water made body temperature rise more. But when scientists looked at the total heat stored in the body, they found something surprising. People who drank warm water actually ended up with less body heat.
The reason is sweat. When you drink something hot, your body produces more sweat. When sweat dries on your skin, it removes heat from your body. This helps cool you down. However, this only works well in dry places with good airflow. Other studies have found that in hot and wet weather, sweat does not dry easily. Instead, it just runs off. In these conditions, cold drinks may be better because they can directly cool the body from the inside. Scientists have also found that cold drinks reduce sweating only when they reach the stomach. This shows that the body senses temperature inside the stomach, not just in the mouth.
The lesson is clear: Grandma’s seemingly odd advice actually rests on a solid physiological mechanism. So next time you go outside on a dry hot day and want cold drinks to cool off, think twice.
8. Why does the writer mention his grandmother in the first paragraph
A．To introduce the main topic. B．To share a childhood memory.
C．To prove grandma is always right. D．To contrast with scientific experiments.
9. What did Ollie Jay’s experiment show
A．Exercise affects body heat. B．Cold water lowers body temperature.
C．Drinking hot water increases overall body heat.
D．Drinking warm water can reduce total body heat.
10. Hot drinks can effectively cool people down only when ________.
A．people drink them slowly B．the environment is dry and airy
C．the weather is hot and wet D．people take exercise at the same time
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A．To compare the effects of hot and cold drinks.
B．To explain why people in hot countries prefer tea.
C．To reveal the science behind a grandma’s tip.
D．To encourage people to follow all healthy habits.
D
The rapid emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT has led to widespread debate about their impact on education. While some teachers worry that such technology may weaken students’ writing abilities, others argue that it presents an opportunity to rethink how critical thinking and effective writing are taught in middle and high school classrooms.
AI tools can generate fluent text within seconds, raising concerns about accuracy and originality. Because these systems are trained on vast amounts of online material, their responses may contain errors, oversimplifications, or hidden biases. Rather than banning such tools, some teachers suggest using them as objects of analysis. By examining AI-generated responses carefully, students can practice identifying inconsistencies, questioning claims, and checking information against reliable sources.
Another concern is that AI reflects the data it is trained on. Voices and perspectives that are underrepresented online may be further left out through repeated use of AI tools. This limitation offers a teaching moment. When students compare multiple AI responses on related topics, they can begin to recognise information gaps and biases, strengthening their awareness of how information systems shape knowledge.
AI-generated writing also differs noticeably from human writing. Although grammatically sound, it often lacks a distinctive voice, emotional depth, or original insight. Some teachers respond by designing assignments that rely on personal experience or unique sources. Tasks such as interviews, first-person accounts, or comparisons of uncommon texts require integration that automated tools cannot easily furnish. Similarly, drawing on classroom discussions as a reference point encourages students to engage actively and treat shared dialogue as part of the learning process.
Ultimately, the challenge posed by AI is not purely technological but educational. As AI becomes more common, these skills grow more valuable rather than less. Instead of resisting change, teachers are supposed to focus more on guiding students to use new tools critically, thoughtfully and responsibly.
12. How do teachers react to AI tools like ChatGPT
A．They hold mixed views. B．They all welcome them warmly.
C．They find that they improve accuracy. D．They depend on them emotionally.
13. What is one major disadvantage of AI writing tools according to the text
A．They cannot produce fluent writing quickly.
B．They are full of obvious factual errors in texts.
C．They contain overused, predictable expressions.
D．They cause some groups’ opinions to be ignored.
14. What does the underlined word “furnish” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Store. B．Simplify. C．Provide. D．Analyze.
15. What message does the author intend to convey
A．AI writing tools should be completely banned at school.
B．Teachers should teach students to make proper use of AI.
C．AI can fully replace students’ independent writing practice.
D．Human thinking skills will become useless with AI’s popularity.
二、七选五
The New Year is traditionally seen as the perfect time to boost motivation. We make resolutions, reflect on our lives, and turn the page to begin new projects.

47. 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。
I own a white Ford Focus. I’ve been driving it to work for five years. It looks almost new because I wash and polish it every weekend. But its rear bumper (后保险杠) has a scratch (划痕) that I’ve never bothered to repair. Whenever someone asks about it, I just shake my head and change the subject. Only I know it’s a reminder of a rainy evening I’ll never forget.
It was a cold autumn night, I was driving home from work, tired and impatient, eager to get away from the heavy rain. I was speeding along a narrow street, my windshield wipers struggling to keep up with the downpour, when I suddenly felt a violent shake from the back of my car. Someone had rear-ended me!
I jumped out, my anger rising fast. Rain poured down, wetting my shirt in seconds. “What were you thinking ! Are you out of your mind ” I shouted, my voice sharp with annoyance. Behind me was an old, beat-up pickup truck, and standing next to it was a young woman, no older than 25, holding a crying baby in her arms. Her face was pale with panic.
“I’m so sorry!” She shouted over the rain. “I didn’t see you! My baby is sick — she has a high fever — and I was rushing to the hospital. Please, I’m so sorry about your car!” Her voice trembled with fear and exhaustion.
Through the rain, I could see the baby’s red face and hear her weak cries. The woman looked desperately at the dark road ahead, and then back at me, tears mixing with raindrops on her cheeks. “Please,” she begged, “I don’t have insurance, and I can’t afford repairs. But my baby needs a doctor now.” Hearing this, the anger inside me went away, replaced by a deep sense of pity and an urgent need to help.
I told her to get into my car so I could take her to the hospital.

How to Make Our Campus Greener
Last week, our school held a speech contest themed “How to Make Our Campus Greener”. The contest began with a host’s opening speech, followed by students’ presentations in turn.
Many speakers put forward practical ideas, such as planting more trees, saving water and sorting garbage. Their confident speeches and creative suggestions impressed all the audience deeply.
This activity not only raises students’ awareness of environmental protection but also inspires us to take action to beautify our campus.
读后续写
I told her to get into my car so I could take her to the hospital. She nodded thankfully and hurried into the car with her weak baby. I drove as fast and steadily as possible through the heavy rain, ignoring the scratch on my car bumper. All I cared about was the sick little baby. After arriving at the hospital, I helped her register and waited until the baby received timely treatment. Seeing the baby’s condition improve, I felt greatly relieved. The woman kept apologizing and promised to pay for my car repair sooner or later.
A week later, I received a phone call from an unknown number. It was the young mother. She thanked me repeatedly and said she had fully recovered her baby. She also sent me a thank-you letter and some gifts to express her sincere gratitude. I refused her gifts and told her helping others was what I should do. To this day, the small scratch still remains on my car, yet it no longer annoys me. Instead, it serves as a warm reminder that kindness always matters in life.
