Beijing helped make my dreams come true. When I studied in Beijing, it heard my voice, accompanied me through sunrise and sunset and gave me courage to move forward.
The beauty of Beijing is deeply carved in my mind. Against the red walls and green riles(瓦) of the Forbidden City, sparkling snowflakes float down from the sky, creating a beautiful and serene picture.
To me, who grew up in the tropics, snow seems as attractive as the forbidden fruit from the Garden of Eden. After a night's snow, everywhere magically becomes as beautiful as a fairy tale.
Did you see the first snow in Beijing in the winter of 2020-2021 I saw it and touched it in person. Located in the outskirts(市郊) of Beijing, Beijing WTown(古北水镇) is a small town with many of the architectural features of the classical gardens in the historical city of Suzhou in eastern China. When snow fall, it looks like a perfect landscape painting. I still feel warm when I recall the scene now, and words can't adequately express my feelings at that time. A scene like this is capable of relieving any amount of stress for tourists.
I love Beijing not only for its fascinating sights but also for the precious friendship I established with international students studying here. Beijing is a place where students from various countries meet. Although it often seems exciting when we meet, saying goodbye remains inevitable. Even though all good things must come to an end, everything has its season, and the time to come together will come again.
Many other moments inspire me to express my feelings to Beijing. I know that these memories will eventually dissolve in fragments of time, but so what I love Beijing and always will.
24. why does the writer mention the forbidden fruit in paragraph 3
A. To give a detailed picture of what snow looks like.
B. To explain a general fact about winter weather.
C. To stress what makes Beijing attractive as a whole.
D. To show how strongly snow attracted her.
25. What does the underlined word"inevitable" in the last to second paragraph mean
A. Very significant. B. Certain to happen.
C. Worth a lot. D. Full of difficulty.
26. What can be inferred about the writer from the passage
A. Different sides of Beijing have left a strong impression on her.
B. She paid close attention to changes in Beijing's weather conditions.
C. She enjoyed watching sunrise and sunset during her stay in Beijing.
D. She experienced mixed feelings of joy and sorrow in Beijing WTown.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. An Unforgettable Journey B. The Snow in Beijing
C. My Beijing Fascination D. A Beautiful City-WTown

My brother once said, "I'd love for us all to live together, but it's just not practical." This reflects a Western way of thinking that values independence over living with family. However, as housing costs rise and families face elder care challenges, this way of thinking is changing. Living with several generations - common in places like China - is becoming popular in the UK.
Recent reports showed that 1.8 million UK households(家庭) now include two or more adult generations. Census(人口普查) data showed that 71 percent of Britons would consider it in the future. Money is a big reason: The cost-of-living crisis makes sharing rent, utilities(水电费) and groceries practical. For aging parents, avoiding expensive care facilities lowers financial pressure. However, focusing only on money misses the deeper benefits.
Living together isn't just about sharing bills; it's about sharing lives. It creates support systems: Grandparents look after children, adults help with chores and teens learn patience and care from elders. In a society facing loneliness, especially among seniors, being close allows daily contact that phone calls can't replace. My brother's wish for a"big house" wasn't only old memories - it showed that separated families often miss these moments.
Of course, there are challenges. Privacy concerns, different routines and small spaces require give-and-take (互相谦让). But modern design, from granny flats to shared common areas, can help. The key is to set boundaries while respecting each other.
Some people say living with several generations feels like going backward. I see it as progress: using tradition to solve modern problems. China's model worked not because of duty, but because it understood that family members need each other. As we rethink aging, childcare and housing costs in the West, combining households offers more than just saving money- it can bring back the sense of community we' ve lost.
Living with several generations isn't for everyone, but calling it"impractical" ignores its potential. It is a caring response to today's pressures, one that turns"my burden(负担)" into"our shared life". Let's stop seeing it as a sacrifice and start valuing it as a choice worth considering.
28. What causes the rise of multi-generational families in the UK
A. Better public care services for the elderly B. Heavy financial stress on ordinary families
C. People's preference for independent lifestyles D. Government support for bigger family housing
29. What deeper role of multi-generational living does the author highlight
A. It reduces dependence on society. B. It encourages respect for traditions.
C. It prepares children for adulthood. D. It strengthens family connections.
30. What can we infer from Paragraph 4
A. Family conflicts are unavoidable and hard to settle.
B. Proper limits between family members matter a lot.
C. Modern housing designs can remove all living troubles.
D. People should give up personal habits for big families.
31. What does the author consider multi-generational living
A. It is modern yet imperfect. M. It is practical yet a short-term fix.
C. It is tough but helpful. D. It is outdated but unavoidable.
D
For years, buffet(自助餐) breakfast has been a sign of hotel luxury, offering guests all kinds of foods like pastries, fruits and hot dishes. Yet behind this seemingly rich display lies a worrying fact: a lot of food was wasted. The UNEP's 2024 Food Waste Index Report shows the food service industry accounts for 28% of global food waste, with buffet breakfast among the most serious - each person wastes about 300 grams there, more than twice that of plated breakfast. Food waste, which brings heavy environmental costs, makes action necessary. As Jocelyn Doyle from the Sustainable Restaurant Association puts it, "Cutting food waste is a powerful way to make a difference- and breakfast is a smart place to start."
Why is there so much waste at buffet breakfast Experts point out several reasons. First, the wide variety of dishes makes people want to try a little of each, so they easily take too much. Second, the fixed price makes guests think"eating more is a better deal", so they take more on purpose. Besides, the"vacation mindset" when staying in a hotel makes people think that indulgence(放纵) is justified --- they tell themselves,"I'm on holiday, so I deserve to treat myself." This mindset reduces feelings of guilt associated with over-consumption or waste, even for those who are usually mindful of their environmental impact.
Now many hotels are finding ways to reduce waste without affecting guests' experience. Some use small plates and pre-portioned yogurt; some put up tips like"Take only what you can eat"; others put light food first to adjust the buffet layout. These small methods can guide guests to take food wisely.
The meaning of"luxury" is also changing. Today,84% of travelers value sustainability. For them, luxury is no longer about"more", but about"quality" and"care". Hotels like Six Senses and Aman have replaced traditional buffets with made-to-order meals. Big hotel chains like Hilton promise to cut food waste by 50% by 2030. They will also use AI to predict the number of diners and donate leftover food.
The traditional"food-piled" buffet breakfast may be disappearing, but a new breakfast experience is emerging - it is both enjoyable and responsible. By providing carefully prepared and non-wasted breakfast, hotels can help guests not only start a good day but also experience a new"luxury".
32. How does the author show the food-waste issue in Para.1
A. By using Jocelyn Doyle's opinion. B. By explaining the food service sector.
C. By listing cases of wasted meals. D. By offering official data.
33. What leads hotel guests to take more food than needed at buffets
A. They believe they can get greater value by consuming plenty.
B. They are afraid certain popular dishes will soon run out.
C. Hotels encourage visitors to taste as many foods as possible.
D. People usually ignore environmental problems in daily life.
34. What measure do some hotels carry out to cut food waste
A. Offering fewer kinds of food to limit guests' choices.
B. Asking customers to finish all the food on their plates.
C. Rearranging food positions to guide reasonable serving.
D. Serving all dishes in small fixed packages for every visitor.
35. What does the passage mainly want to tell us
A. Buffet breakfasts cause environment issues.
B. Travelers prefer sustainable hotel breakfasts.
C. Luxury now means quality instead of quantity.
D. Hotels cut buffet breakfast waste thoughtfully.

Bloom at Your Own Pace
Exam papers were handed out one after another and landed quietly on every desk. Staring at the red scores on my paper, I knew I failed to get the top rank. Low whispers spread around me as the teacher read out everyone's rankings slowly. Disappointment welled up inside me, and I felt my dream of entering my ideal university gradually run away.
I had long been pushing myself hard just to achieve high rankings. I rose early in the morning and stayed up late studying every day, arranging all my time tightly for different school subjects. I once firmly believed that taking first place constantly would prepare me for a better future. This belief once motivated me greatly, yet endless pressure soon tired me out. I often felt eye discomfort and mental tiredness, and the top position always seemed impossible to reach.
Feeling low, I left the classroom alone. The air was fresh with the smell of rain. I stopped at a quiet little garden beside the library, which I had never taken time to visit before.
An elderly gardener was busy tending flowers and watering plants with great care. Only a handful of flowers were in bloom (开花) among green leaves. I couldn't help questioning whether all his efforts were worthwhile.
Sensing my confusion, the old man smiled and began to chat with me. He told me that every flower has its own flowering time. Some blossom early, while others need more time to grow. As long as they get enough sunshine, water and proper care, they will surely bloom perfectly when the right time comes. Instead of rushing for results, we should learn to wait patiently and focus on steady(稳步的) growth.
注意：(1) 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。
"Not sure when they flower- isn't it upsetting " I asked.
From that day on, I decided to follow his advice- less hurrying, more growing.

Dear Tom,
Learning that you are coming to China for your holiday and haven't decided where to go, I'm writing to recommend Beijing to you.
As the capital of China, Beijing has a long history and plenty of world-famous sights. You can visit the Great Wall and the Palace Museum, where you will get a deep understanding of ancient Chinese culture. Besides, there are varieties of delicious local food, among which Peking duck is a must-try.
I hope you will have a wonderful time in China. Looking forward to your arrival.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

【答案】 One possible version
"Not sure when they flower - isn't it upsetting " I asked. "It makes every effort meaningful," he replied calmly. "Flowers develop bit by bit every single day. Blooming is just a brief moment, while the whole process of growing matters far more." His words sank deep into my heart. I recalled my blue mood over poor grades and those sleepless nights, realizing I was too eager to succeed and cared too much about final results so that I ignored steady progress and the value of effort itself. I thanked the gardener sincerely and left the garden with a peaceful and relaxed mind.
From that day on, I decided to follow his advice - less hurrying, more growing. I adjusted my study state and made solid progress step by step instead of blindly chasing high rankings. When graduation finally arrived, I visited the garden again and saw countless flowers in full bloom. Soon afterwards, I received the admission notice from my target university. I realized I needn't rush for success. As long as I keep moving forward steadily, I will surely shine in my own proper time.

W: Hello, everyone. Do you know Ben Nevis It's the highest mountain in Britain. Today I'll tell you my experience of climbing it. It was in February. We camped at the bottom of the mountain. Although the weather forecast was perfect, with no winds or snow, there was still a general feeling of nervousness when we set out. The group soon climbed and my legs felt heavy. Being the weakest member of the group, I had to rest more frequently. The others sometimes stopped for a break to let me catch up. After seven hours of climbing, we reached the top. On a clear day, we saw the sea and the Isle of Skye right across it. On Ben Nevis, getting back to camp can be as much of a challenge as going up. When I finally came back to the tent, I couldn't say I really enjoyed the experience, but at least I made it to the top.
