Welcome to the beautiful Italian city—Rimini!
When you think about Rimini, you probably picture the beach. It was the first place on the continent (大陆) that truly defined the beach vacation as we know it today: days spent under sun umbrellas, meals outdoors, dancing into the evening, and then doing it all over again the next day. So, take a closer look at this enjoyable city on the Adriatic Sea!
Top things to do
● For the price of a deckchair (帆布躺椅) and an umbrella, you get access to a private beach area, which includes bathrooms, showers, changing rooms, a playground, a restaurant, and a bar.
● You can visit the Fellini Museum, which hosts film screenings (放映) and cultural events.
● Given its location within the pancake-flat Po River Valley, Rimini is highly suitable for getting around by bike. There is a network of clearly marked paths and plenty of places to lock up a bike.
● Cross the ancient Roman Tiberius Bridge (also known as Ponte di Tiberio) to reach the sweet Borgo San Giuliano, a former fishing village. Visitors can admire the colorful street art of Borgo.
Best time to visit
If you re coming to Rimini for its amazing beach scene, you should visit from mid-June to early September. Crowds will peak (达到高峰) in July and August, reaching their highest point in mid-August due to Italy s national cultural holiday. If you visit during this period, you should reserve your hotel and beach loungers in advance.

B
It was in the early 2000s. I stood on the corner of a street in Abu Dhabi, with my two little boys, trying to catch a taxi when one came to a stop in front of us.
The three of us piled into the back of the vehicle and I gave the driver the location, hardly giving him a second look. He was just the driver of the taxi. Who notices taxi drivers anyway
As usual, the boys had hardly settled in when they began bickering (争吵) over some silly issues. Soon, it had turned into a fistfight (拳斗) between the two, with me reduced to a useless bystander after vain (徒劳的) attempts at sorting it out. I finally sighed and gave up, turning to look out of the window.
“A healthy fight between brothers is a good sign. Let them be,” came a soft voice from in front of me. I turned and met the driver’s eyes in the rear-view mirror (后视镜). “It’s a natural growing-up stage. Enjoy it while you can,” he added.
Enjoy my boys fighting like cats and dogs I said to myself. He probably guessed what I was thinking because he continued with a twinkle in his grey eyes. “Yes, sister,” he said. “You should enjoy it when you can. Look at me. Even if I wish for it, I cannot see my children grow up, let alone fight!”
That began a conversation between us. The man had left his wife and children back in Pakistan, living as he did far away in a different country in order to provide a good life for them. He had missed their first baby steps, their first words, and so many valuable milestones.
Suddenly, the man was no longer just a taxi driver. He had a family to take care of. He had good days and bad days. And he had hopes and dreams. The conversation between the taxi driver and me lasted through the duration of the ride and its effects lasted much longer for me.
4. What did the author do after she got into the taxi

B．She observed the driver for a while.
C．She paid little attention to the driver.
D．She forgot to tell the driver their destination.
5. How did the taxi driver respond to the two boys’ fight
A．He turned around and blamed them.
B．He considered it natural.
C．He thought it was silly.
D．He pulled his taxi over.
6. What can we learn about the taxi driver from the text
A．He lived a comfortable life.
B．He enjoyed entertaining others.
C．He gave up his childhood dream.
D．He missed many important moments in his children’s lives.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．Let children be themselves.
B．Respect people from all walks of life.
C．Keep a balance between work and family.
D．A short chat makes a big difference to life.
C
Community service, often defined as voluntary work intended to help people in a particular area, has been added to high school curricula(课程) worldwide.
One of the main reasons for adding community service to high school education is its obvious impact on personal growth and development. Through community service, students gain valuable life skills that traditional classroom instruction may not fully provide. Moreover, community service provides a real-world context for students to apply academic(学术的) knowledge. For example, a student interested in biology might volunteer at a local animal shelter or take part in conservation projects, gaining practical experience that enriches his/her understanding of classroom theories. Another important benefit of community service is that it helps high school students develop social responsibility and social awareness. By doing community service activities, students become more aware of societal issues. And they will realize the importance of contributing to the common good.
Despite its benefits, the introduction of community service to high school curricula is not without challenges. One common concern is that community service may add more stress to high school students who are already under a lot of pressure. Balancing academics, extracurricular activities and personal affairs can be hard, and community service might make them more tired and stressed.
Additionally, the quality and accessibility of community service opportunities can be different in different areas. Students in schools or communities with few resources may have fewer opportunities for meaningful service experiences. This actually widens the gap between students.
In conclusion, while community service in high school presents certain challenges, its benefits for personal growth and academic enrichment are clear. By adding community service to high school curricula, educators can equip students with essential life skills, develop their sense of public duty and increase their social munity service not only prepares students for future academic and professional plans but also shapes helpful citizens who are willing to make a positive difference to their communities.
8. What does the author want to tell us in paragraph 2
A．The benefits of community service.
B．The importance of learning life skills.
C．The advantages of gaining practical experiences.
D．The necessity of developing social responsibility.
9. What’s the concern about adding community service to high school education
A．It leads to decrease in extracurricular activities.
B．It challenges traditional classroom instruction.
C．It increases students’ pressure.
D．It affects school work.
10. According to paragraph 4, what may lead to unfairness between students
A．The different academic tasks.
B．The unequal access to resources.
C．The lack of social awareness.
D．The individual differences.
11. What does the author think of community service
A．It takes up too much of students’ study time.
B．It should be promoted worldwide.
C．It aims to develop academic talents.
D．It has a positive influence on students.

The 60-foot-tall rocket took off in West Texas, sending a group of six people into space and giving them a few minutes of weightlessness before they landed by parachute (降落伞).
Most of the passengers paid a secret sum of money for their seats. But Katya Echazarreta, an engineer and science communicator, was selected by a nonprofit organization to join in this travel from a pool of thousands of applicants. The organization’s goal is to send great leaders into space and allow them to experience the overview effect, which was reported by astronauts who said that viewing the Earth from space gave them a great change in their view.
“Looking down, you see everyone is down there, all of our past, all of our difficulties, everything — everything is there,” Echazarreta said. “When I came back down, it just completely strengthened my wish to continue enabling people of different backgrounds to go into space and do whatever they want.”
Echazarreta is the first Mexican-born woman to travel into space. She moved to the United States with her family at the age of seven. She recalled that she felt uncertain in a new place where she didn’t speak the language and that a teacher warned her that she might have to repeat a grade. “It just really fueled me and after that, I just studied harder,” Echazarreta said. Later she became the main breadwinner in her family. Sometimes she had up to four jobs at the same time, just to try to successfully graduate from college.
She worked in NASA before and didn’t see other female engineers like her, which inspired her to popularize science among the public. These days, Echazarreta is studying for her master’s degree in engineering at Johns Hopkins University. She also has more than 330,000 fans on TikTok, and hosts a science-focused YouTube series.
12. Why was Echazarreta chosen to travel into space
A．She was considered to be an excellent person.
B．She was an expert in landing by parachute.
C．She supported the project with a big sum of money.
D．She made great efforts to set up a nonprofit organization.
13. What was in Echazarreta’s mind after she returned from space travel
A．To share the beauty of space on social media.
B．To encourage the public to learn science.
C．To help more people travel into space.
D．To make women scientists known to the public.
14. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “fueled” in Paragraph 4
A．Beat. B．Attracted. C．Confused. D．Drove.
15. What kind of person is probably Echazarreta
A．Calm and confident.
B．Inspiring and hardworking.
C．Humorous and outgoing.
D．Talented and creative.

Growing a garden is great fun. Flowers bring color and sweet smells into our lives. Homegrown carrots and tomatoes are delicious. Whether your garden takes up a corner of your yard, or a corner of a windowsill (窗台), it’s easy to be successful by following a few simple guidelines.

As a tennis coach, Gallwey took the same ____24____ originally. Over time, however, he noticed that when he gave his players ____25____ advice, they progressed even faster.

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 fell in love with Katrina right away. She was new to our school, but she didn’t seem shy or nervous. She smiled at everyone, even on the first day of class. Unluckily, we only got to enjoy that smile for the first three days of school. Our teacher told us that Katrina had cancer (癌症) and would be in the hospital.
Some of my friends in my class and I decided to go to see her in the hospital. She had just moved to a new town and didn’t even get a chance to make friends with anyone yet. We wanted to keep her company. That was how we came to know Katrina and how much fun she really was.
It was awkward at first because we didn’t know what to talk about, but when she started telling us about her hospital adventures, we were all laughing. And before we knew it, we had been there for almost three hours. She told us about the kid in the room next to her who would get up and pull the fire alarm for absolutely no reason. And sure enough, while we were sitting with her, the fire alarm went off. We all laughed when nobody feared and escaped. And she told us how much she missed her little animals: a rabbit, a bird, cats, dogs, etc. Later, her mom told us that her favorite thing was to go to the Humane Society and adopt (收养) the poorest animal. She always managed to take it home and make it beautiful.
After that day, we continued visiting her. We could see she was hopeful that she would eventually recover. However, during one of our visits, she learned from doctors that she only had a 50% chance to recover. She was quite scared, crying, “I don’t want to die.” And we heard her family was having economic problems and that her single mom was having little time to help take care of her animals. Suddenly, she felt her world became dark; she grew anxious and helpless.
We told her we were there to fight with her. We wouldn’t let her go.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150个左右；
（2）请按如下格式作答。
After returning to school, we wondered how to support her.

Finally, her cancer was gone and she would go home on her birthday and have a party.

Firstly, we should refuse to eat seafood caught illegally. Secondly, avoid using plastic products to reduce ocean pollution. Besides, we can spread knowledge of marine animal protection to people around us.
Small efforts can make a big difference. Let’s work together to protect marine animals and guard the beautiful ocean home.

After returning to school, we wondered how to support her. We decided to do what we could to lift her spirits and relieve her pressure. We organized a class donation to help her family cover medical expenses. Meanwhile, we took turns taking care of her lovely animals and shared interesting daily stories with her through messages every day. We also made a thick photo album filled with our best wishes and colorful drawings, hoping to give her strength to fight against the disease.
Finally, her cancer was gone and she would go home on her birthday and have a party. On that special day, we all came to her house with gifts and cheers. Katrina wore a bright smile and hugged each of us tightly, expressing her sincere gratitude. She said our company and support had given her endless courage to get through the hardest time. From this experience, we learned that kindness and companionship are the most powerful warmth in the world.
