David and his classmates quickly got to work. They spent days practicing the skill, determined to perfect it for the exhibition. David, who was in charge of organizing, contacted local media and invited community members. He knew that if they could show the beauty and history of su filindeu, people would appreciate it. On the day of the exhibition, the students demonstrated the process, explaining its significance. Many visitors were amazed by the skill, realizing that traditions like this should not be lost.
The day after the exhibition, Ms. Sandra entered the classroom with a smile.

Discover World Heritage
Heritage is treasure from the past — what we live with today and what we pass on to future generations. To preserve it, UNESCO safeguards hundreds of natural and cultural World Heritage sites around the world.
Here are 4 World Heritage sites:
Historic Centre of Rome
Founded, according to legend, by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC, Rome was first the centre of the Roman Republic, then of the Roman Empire, and it became the capital of the Christian world in the 4th century.
Ancient City of Damascus
Founded in 3000 BC, Damascus is one of the oldest cities in the Middle East. In the Middle Ages, it was the centre of a splendid craft industry, specializing in swords. The city has some 125 monuments from different periods of its history.
Old Havana
Havana was founded in 1519 by the Spanish. By the 17th century, it had become one of the Caribbean’s main centres for ship-building. Although it is today a modern city, its old centre remains an interesting mix of Baroque and neoclassical (新古典主义的) monuments.
Ancient City of Pingyao
Pingyao, founded in the 14th century, shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over five centuries. Of special interest are the splendid buildings associated with banking, for which Pingyao was the major centre for the whole of China in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
21. Which of the following was last founded
A. Rome. B. Pingyao. C. Havana. D. Damascus.
22. What can we learn from the text
A. Havana became a modern city in the 16th century.
B. Damascus was well-known for its craft industry.
C. Pingyao was once the major centre for ships in China.
D. Rome was founded by the Spanish.
23. In which section of a magazine can we read the text
A. Culture. B. Nature. C. Education. D. Environment.
B
Just before dawn on the north coast of Peru, fishers drag boats made of reeds (芦苇) to the water’s edge and, kneeling on them, paddle out into the Pacific to catch their breakfast. A few hours later, they return riding waves on the final stretch to the shore. The reed boats — caballitos are then placed upright to drain.
Archaeologists estimate these boats have been used for about 3,500 years. But today many fishers believe they may be the last generation to fish by caballito. Dwindling fish resources, plastic pollution and motorized boats mean they struggle to match their fathers’ catches. Junior Huanchamucho, 37, a traditional fisher, said: “My father used to bring in a lot of fish with one or two nets. Now we use six or seven nets and the catch is low. It’s because of the big boats that collect everything.” While he loves his family’s tradition, he doesn’t see a future in it.
Fishers also face a shortage of the raw material they need for their boats — the totora reeds. In early 2025, sewage spills (污水泄露) damaged more than half of the ponds where the reeds grow. The 40 fishers who still use caballitos built 13 new ponds with the technical help of the NGO Conservation International. Traditional ancestral fishing is protected in Peru by a 2018 law that declares it of “national interest”. But little has been done to enforce the protection of the five-nautical-mile coastal stretch of ocean reserved only for the caballito fishers.
Nowadays, surfers flood into Huanchaco, and many become fascinated by the caballitos. Pablo Diaz, 65, sometimes supplements his income by showing tourists how to ride a caballito. The younger generation in fishing families have opened surf schools. Daniela Amico of Conservation International said: “I believe that by connecting surfing and the ancestral culture of these fishermen, we can find new opportunities for them.”
24. What does the underlined word “dwindling” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Shrinking. B. Recovering. C. Preserved. D. Renewed.
25. What do we know about the 2018 law
A. It fails to work as intended. B. It prevents sewage spills.
C. It leads to the building of new ponds. D. It advocates the conservation of reeds.
26. What can we infer from Daniela Amico’s words
A. The culture of the fishermen will be replaced.
B. Surf schools are gaining popularity among tourists.
C. Surfing is throwing a lifeline for the caballito fishers.
D. New surfing opportunities will be provided for fishers.
27. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. Growing Reeds: A New Approach to Income Increase
B. Huanchaco: A Unique Destination for Fishing Enthusiasts
C. Junior Huanchamucho: A Fisher Keen on Passing Traditions
D. Fishing by Caballito: A Fishing Tradition Calling for Attention
C
Suppose you’re looking ahead to your evenings as a chance to catch up on the latest TV series or televised sport. Nothing looks more attractive to you than your couch (沙发). In the back of your mind, though, runs the possibility of using that time to figure out how to complete the home craft project. That project so far has become so complicated that it will take you at least an hour of watching instructional videos to complete it. You know that you’d feel proud of yourself if you got it done. However, the couch’s temptation becomes too hard to resist, and so the project will have to be abandoned.
According to California State University’s Max Alberhasky, your situation is a typical example of what’s called the “happiness paradox”. Simply stated, this is the tendency for people to choose a leisure activity that requires very little effort even though they know that a true mood boost would come from applying their skills.
Put somewhat differently, when you’ re looking at how to spend your leisure time right in the moment, you’ re less likely to consider the long- term consequences of your decision.
In one experiment conducted in the lab, undergraduates participated in either the high- skill activity of playing the online game “2048” (where you build chains of sums) or the low- skill activity of playing “Plinko” (a game based merely on luck). Participants playing the “2048” game reported being happier and finding more meaning in the activity than the “Plinko” players did.
You know now why the cough looks so inviting compared to the halfway- done home project that just seems like it will be too hard and, hence, not very attractive. You can only pull yourself away from what will eventually be a less beneficial choice if you project yourself into the future and think about how good you’ll feel when it’s done and you can stand back and admire your work.
28. Why do we tend to give up the home craft project
A. We seek instant pleasures. B. We prefer rewarding tasks.
C. We usually ignore easy activities. D. We focus on long-term interests.
29. What may cause the “happiness paradox”
A. Not realizing a job’s value. B. Not finding a worthwhile job.
C. Escaping from boring tasks. D. Escaping from demanding tasks.
30. What can we infer from the experiment in paragraph 4
A. High- skill activities are more popular.
B. Low- skill activities are more interesting.
C. Higher level of difficulty leads to more fun.
D. Lower level of difficulty results in more benefits.
31. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph
A. Realise potential rewards. B. Keep improving ourselves.
C. Have a passion for our job. D. Find pleasure in the process.
D
When someone loses weight, people notice, comment, and ask how. The question implies that whatever method they used is worth knowing, reproducing, or admiring. It positions weight loss as an achievement, a moral victory, a signal of discipline or virtue. But what if their weight loss came from grief, stress, depression or a medication that finally brought balance to their body chemistry
Our curiosity about how someone lost weight is rarely neutral. Often, it’s rooted in our own insecurity or desire for control. We want to know what works — because culturally, we’ve been taught that managing our bodies is a lifelong project. When we see someone “succeed,” we want the recipe. However, rather than self- improvement projects, our bodies are complex ecosystems — shaped by genetics, hormones, health conditions, socioeconomic factors, medications, and emotions. When we reduce someone’s body to a before- and- after story, we dehumanize them into an object lesson.
The recent explosion of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro has made this question even more controversial. Many people assume any visible change must be drug- related, and they ask with hardly disguised judgment or envy. “Did you use one of those medications ” has become the new “Did you get work done ” The subtext is clear: Did you earn this, or did you cheat
This framing is not only prejudiced — it’s unscientific. GLP-1 medications are legal medical treatments for conditions like diabetes (糖尿病), metabolic dysfunction, and obesity. Shame has no place in a conversation about health or healing. Yet we’ve moralized weight loss to such an extent that even those who find life-changing relief through medication are made to feel guilty or defensive for it.
We live in a society enthusiastic about Cinderella stories. Weight loss is still treated like a transformation myth. But health and self-worth are not determined by body size, and accomplishments shouldn’t be measured in pounds. When we cease looking into how people lost weight, we start to undo a small but powerful part of that narrative. We give others and ourselves permission to exist without explanation, justification, or public commentary on our bodies.
32. Why do people ask about weight loss methods
A. To manage their desire for control.
B. To address their own body image anxiety.
C. To identify effects of weight medications.
D. To study human body ecosystems closely.
33. What does the underlined word “framing” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Avoiding controversial questions.
B. Building support structures.
C. Labelling medication as cheating.
D. Misjudging health conditions.
34. Which statement would the author probably agree with
A. Weight loss signals discipline and virtue.
B. Medications are universal health solutions.
C. Dieters should defend their own rights.
D. Self-worth is independent of body size.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. Celebrating Body Changes
B. Psychology of Losing Weight
C. Stop Judging Weight Loss
D. Medical Solutions to Overweight

Growing up without financial advantage often teaches invaluable lessons about the truth of wealth. ____36____ Instead, it’s about relationships, health, and a mindful approach to life’s offerings.
For many who grew up with less, the true measure of wealth is found in the strength of their relationships.

Instead, satisfaction lies in meeting basic needs and appreciating the simple pleasures in life.
____39____ Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds often witness how poor health can worsen financial struggles. They value healthy habits and recognize the importance of being well more. Investing in health becomes a fundamental principle, as it enables individuals to pursue goals and experience life fully.
People who grew up in poverty often develop an incredible ability to maintain relationships, hold a positive mindset and adopt healthy habits. They know how to connect with the loved ones genuinely, how to diversify meals to ensure nutrition and how to find free or low-cost ways to enjoy life. This adaptability is a skill that serves them well throughout life. ____40____

67. 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。
When David signed up for Ms. Sandra’s “Endangered Traditions” class at Willow High, he didn’t expect this class to be about saving history. Ms. Sandra, one of the few remaining masters of su filindeu, a handmade Italian pasta (意大利面), explained in the first class that this skill had been practiced for over 300 years and was the rarest of 350 pasta varieties worldwide. She emphasized, “Fewer than ten people in the world still master this skill. If we don’t act, the art will disappear.”
The students fell silent, realizing the importance of what they were learning. Then, with flour-dusted hands, Ms. Sandra shifted the mood. “Now, let me show you its magic.” The students leaned forward as she started the incredible transformation. She rolled the dough (面团) into a thick rope and then stretched it into 256 perfect strands (线). The classroom was filled with admiration as the teacher’s hands moved gracefully.
For weeks, David and his classmates threw themselves into learning the skill of making su filindeu with Ms. Sandra’s help, but it didn’t come easily. The dough kept breaking or sticking together. Sometimes, they couldn’t stretch more than 16 strands. Still, they refused to quit, helping and encouraging each other as they improved little by little.
One afternoon, Ms. Sandra entered the classroom with heavy steps. She sighed, “The school board thinks our su filindeu class isn’t practical. They’ve decided to cancel it next term unless we can prove its value.” She added, “It’s true that machines can mass-produce pasta in minutes, but if we only value what’s fast and easy, we lose centuries of knowledge.”
A wave of disappointment swept through the classroom. After a moment of silence, David stood up. “What if we let more people know about it How about an exhibition ” he suggested. The class lit up with excitement. Inspired by their reaction, David immediately volunteered to organize the exhibition. Ms. Sandra watched, proud and hopeful. Perhaps, she thought, they really could work some magic.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
David and his classmates quickly got to work.
