In 1985, 20-year-old Yin Yuzhen from Shaanxi Province got married and moved with her husband to the interior of the Maowusu Desert. The living conditions there were extremely tough. Everything around her was either sand or something covered in sand. The wind blew sand into their eyes, mouths, and nostrils, and after each storm, there was only silence. Yin and her husband were the only people living in that lonely, empty land.
On the second day of her arrival, Yin resolved that she would not let the desert control her life. Despite her inability to read or write and being totally green when it came to planting, she chose to learn through practical experience. Over time, she figured out that the best way to fight the desert was by planting trees. Her idea was to first grow grass to hold the sand, then plant bushes, and later trees.
At first, her efforts failed. Desert mice ate all the grass seeds. She tried planting them deeper, but the mice still found them. She racked her brains and came up with a great idea. She took one of their sheep and used its hoofprints (蹄印) to hide the seeds. The smell of the sheep disguised the seeds, and the grass began to grow.
Yin didn’t stop there. She planted strong trees like poplars and Scotch pines along the outer edges to block the wind and sand. In the middle, she planted smaller trees and bushes. Her dream was to create a green “fortress” in the desert and grow fruits and crops in the protected center where they lived.
Yin and her husband worked diligently for many years, showing remarkable perseverance. She once said, “I’d rather die of tiredness from fighting the sand than be challenged by it.” In the end, her hard work paid off. The desert that once seemed hopeless turned into a thriving green land.
24. What’s the purpose of Paragraph 1
A．To introduce the background of the story.
B．To compare city life and countryside life.
C．To imply the significance of desert control.
D．To show the relationship between the couple.
25. What does the underlined phrase “being totally green” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Loving green plants.
B．Being very young in age.
C．Protecting the environment.
D．Having no experience at all.
26. What words can best describe Yin and her husband
A．Romantic and energetic.
B．Determined and creative.
C．Capable and adventurous.
D．Knowledgeable and sensitive.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Maowusu Desert’s Bright Future
B．The Impact of Strong Sandstorms
C．Modern-day Young People’s Dreams
D．A Woman’s Struggle Against the Desert
C
Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
28. In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A．Building confidence.
B．Developing spatial skills.
C．Learning self-control.
D．Gaining high-tech knowledge.
29. What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment？
A．Parents’ age.
B．Children’s imagination.
C．Parents’ education.
D．Child-parent relationship.
30. How do boy differ from girls in puzzle play
A．They play with puzzles more often.
B．They tend to talk less during the game.
C．They prefer to use more spatial language.
D．They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
31. What is the text mainly about
A．A mathematical method.
B．A scientific study.
C．A woman psychologist
D．A teaching program.
D
The relationship between physical activity and cognitive health has long interested researchers, who generally treated exercise as a single category. Yet not all forms of exercise appear to yield equal benefits. A landmark study conducted by scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine offers convincing evidence that dancing may occupy a unique position in the ranking of brain-protecting activities.
Between 1980 and 2001, the researchers tracked nearly 500 elderly residents of the Bronx, monitoring their leisure activities and cognitive function over two decades. The findings, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, revealed a striking pattern: while cognitive activities like reading and board games reduced dementia (痴呆) risk by approximately 7 percent per activity, physical pursuits showed more varied outcomes. Swimming and cycling demonstrated modest protective effects, but dancing emerged as the standout performer, with frequent participants showing a 76 percent lower risk of developing dementia compared to those who rarely danced.
What distinguishes dancing from other forms of exercise The researchers suggest that its superiority lies not in body movement alone, but in the combined cognitive demands it requires. A dancer must process rhythm, recall order, navigate spatial relationships, and often move with a partner — all while maintaining balance and posture. This continuous multitasking, the researchers suggest, may create a more robust neural workout than repetitive aerobic activities like walking.
Nevertheless, the study’s authors warn against overstating these findings. The data, they note, indicate correlation rather than definitive cause, and the precise neurological mechanisms remain unclear. Moreover, the study population was geographically concentrated, raising questions about broader applicability.
Still, the implications are difficult to ignore. In an era where pharmaceutical solutions to cognitive decline remain hard to achieve, the prospect that something as accessible as dancing might strengthen the aging brain carries undeniable appeal. Whether the waltz, the tango, or freestyle movement, the message seems consistent: when it comes to preserving mental sharpness, engaging both body and mind may be the most effective approach of all.
32. What does the author imply about previous research on exercise and brain health
A．It overlooked differences among exercise types.
B．It overestimated the benefits of aerobic exercise.
C．It ignored the social aspect of activities.
D．It relied too much on animal studies.
33. Why does the author mention swimming and cycling
A．To show their popularity among the elderly.
B．To compare them with mental activities.
C．To set a baseline for dancing’s advantages.
D．To challenge the study’s methodology.
34. What is the researchers’ attitude toward their findings
A．Fully convinced.
B．Mildly skeptical.
C．Highly critical.
D．Completely dismissive.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A．Dancing should replace medical treatments.
B．Physical exercise can prevent cognitive decline.
C．The Bronx study has settled debates on dementia prevention.
D．Combined mental and physical engagement benefits the brain most.

67. I knew healing my relationship with Dad was vital, but how to go about it was another story. At the time the gulf between us seemed insurmountable (无法逾越的). My feelings of being criticized and rejected by Dad were my deepest wound.
In my early years I was the apple of his eye, and he was a hero in my childhood. We played sports and games, and often went fishing together.
As adolescence approached, however, everything changed. It became clear that I was determined to forge my own path, one completely different from his expectation. In school I was having behavioral problems, being a class joker and breaking all the rules. And having my parents read my school report was a nightmare for me. Sometimes I was punished. Their disapproval made me feel even worse. Punishments only added to the hurt.
My dad had no idea how to deal with me. He became silent and distant, setting a wall and pretending that he didn’t care. That was even more painful to me than my mother’s voiced disapproval. I hated him for that, and pretended that I didn’t want anything to do with him. We lived under the same roof, but we were a thousand miles away from each other.
I continued to have trouble with school until the time I chose to drop out and pursue my interests in music. I became totally focused on my spiritual growth, which sent shivers (寒颤) through my father’s mind. There were many hard feelings between us, feelings that hardened as time went by.
For much of my twenties, I went about my life without much of a relationship with my dad. We had stopped trying to change each other, but the walls remained, thick and cold between us.
Things all began changing four years after mom told me it was time to deal with Dad. Hesitant for a long time, I finally took her advice and wrote my father a letter.
After sending the letter, I felt a heavy weight on my mind.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I visited my father soon after receiving his letter.

Nowadays many classmates rely on AI to finish homework. In my opinion, AI is just a helper instead of a replacement for independent thinking. If we copy answers blindly, we can’t master knowledge well. I suggest we use AI only to solve difficult problems and analyze its answers carefully. We should finish exercises by ourselves first and make full use of our own brains.

After sending the letter, I felt a heavy weight on my mind. I worried Dad would still be cold and refuse to understand me. Several days passed without any reply. I lost confidence and thought the gap between us could never be fixed. Just as I planned to give up, a letter from Dad arrived unexpectedly. He said he was sorry for being too strict and silent, and missed the happy time we spent together long ago.
I visited my father soon after receiving his letter. We sat down and talked heart to heart for hours. He admitted he didn’t know how to communicate with a teenage kid back then, while I told him my real thoughts. All the misunderstandings faded away. From then on, we kept in close touch and rebuilt our warm father-son bond.
