Beautiful Guatemala is a land rich in diversity and cultural heritage. Whether you hope to summit a volcano, hike through the jungle or explore ancient ruins, Guatemala will not disappoint.
Tikal National Park
Tikal National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most famous places in Guatemala. Tikal covers an estimated 46 miles (around 74 km) and is one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites in Central America. It is here, centuries ago, that the ancient Mayan civilisation boomed.
Chichicastenango
“Chichi,” as it’s known by the local Kiche population, hosts the largest market in Central America. The town comes alive on Thursdays and Sundays when vendors (小贩) come from surrounding areas to display their goods. The market bursts with varied colours and a lively atmosphere, stocking everything from vividly-colored cloth to traditional carved wooden masks.
Guatemala City
Brightly graffitied (涂鸦) walls line the busy streets in Guatemala City where you’ll find trendy stores, relaxing bars, and diverse art galleries. Make sure to check out La Esquina, an indoor food market with some of the best food stalls in the city. The Museo Popol Vuh is a leading museum in the world of Mayan art. Here you will be able to spend a couple of hours appreciating the incredible and comprehensive collection of Mayan as well as colonial art.
Acatenango Volcano
Volcano Acatenango towers almost 4,000 metres above the surrounding landscape just outside Antigua. The hike to the summit of this volcano is one of the toughest, yet most popular, in Guatemala. Not only will you get to appreciate the breathtaking views, but you will also have a bird’s-eye view of the nearby (and extremely active) Volcan Fuego.

A new T-shirt that continuously monitors heart activity and detects abnormalities may help prevent strokes by identifying dangerous heart conditions like atrial fibrillation (AF). This irregular heart rhythm increases the risk of stroke and affects over a million-people in Britain, with an estimated 500,000 more remaining undiagnosed due to a lack of noticeable symptoms. While some individuals experience signs like chest pain, dizziness, or fatigue, many only discover the condition after suffering a stroke.
Detecting AF typically involves an electrocardiogram (ECG), performed in a hospital where trained staff attach up to 24 electrodes to different parts of the body. However, since AF often occurs intermittently (间歇地), a short hospital check-up may not detect it. To counter this, doctors sometimes provide patients with a Holter monitor, a device worn under clothing that records heart activity. However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear.
The Cardioskin T-shirt offers a more practical alternative. Made from cotton and washable up to 35 times, it has 15 small electrodes woven into the chest area to monitor heart signals continuously. The T-shirt can be worn 24 hours a day, increasing the likelihood of detecting abnormal rhythms. Powered by a removable battery, the electrodes feed data to a microchip, which wirelessly transmits the information to an app. The app converts the data into an easy-to-read chart, highlighting any irregular heart activity. The results are then shared with the patient’s doctor, allowing for remote monitoring without requiring hospital visits. This innovative design could make diagnosing AF easier and more accessible, potentially reducing the risk of stroke for many.
Professor Martin Cowie, a cardiologist at Imperial College London, views Cardioskin as an significant development in heart health monitoring, offering a comfortable and efficient tool for early detection of cardiac problems.
4. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. The difficulty in detecting atrial fibrillation. B. The benefit of wearing a Holter monitor.
C. The process of recording heart activity. D. The future of developing a new ECG.
5. Why did the author mention a Holter monitor in the text?
A. To introduce a way to check the patient’s heart.
B To explain why doctors like using the device.
C. To show the advantage of a Cardiosk in T-shirt over it.
D. To encourage people to care about their health.
6. What can we learn about the Cardiosk in T-shirt?
A. It has electrodes placed all over the T-shirt.
B. It can be worn a month without being washed.
C. It has a battery that can be charged easily and quickly.
D. It can make the process of diagnosis timely and convenient.
7. What could be the best title for the passage?
A New ECC: an important development for doctors
B. Hi-tech T-shirt: a good helper for detecting strokes
C. Holter monitor: a device tracking patients’ heart problems
D Cardiosk in T-shirt: a shirt keeping patients from diseases
C
The male western tanager (唐纳雀) looks like a little flame, while females are less showy, a dusty yellow. In the spring, they prepare to move thousands of miles to the Mountain West of Central America, flying through grasslands, deserts, and occasionally, suburban yards.
To fuel them on their lengthy journey, western tanagers fill up on insects and berries. But as global climate change causes spring to start earlier, birds such as western tanagers are arriving at their destination after what’s known as “green-up”, when flowers begin blooming and insects emerge. According to a study published in early March in the journal PNAS, this kind of timing mismatch between migrants (迁移动物) and their food sources, which is happening across North America, could have serious consequences for migratory birds’ survival. “In discussing climate change, we often focus on warming,” says Scott Loss, a co-author of the study. “But the length and timing of seasons — like when winter ends and spring begins — are some of the most dramatic effects of climate change.”
Loss and his colleagues used satellite imagery from 2002 to 2021 to calculate the average start of spring green-up along the typical migration routes of 150 North American bird species, then compared that timing with the current green-up. They found that spring is indeed beginning earlier along birds’ migration routes. “By contrary, previous studies have mainly focused on songbirds in Eastern North America,” says Morgan Tingley, an ornithologist at UCLA, “but this new investigation shows that bird species in the West and at different levels of the food web might be just as vulnerable (脆弱的).”
“Part of it is knowing which species are vulnerable to various threats,” Loss says. “This adds to the knowledge about vulnerability of a wide range of bird species.” And he hopes that the information will serve to highlight the urgent need to lower greenhouse-gas emissions as fast as possible. “It’s really important, if we can’t address climate change immediately, to try to stop habitat loss as much as we can.”
8. What may pose a direct threat to western tanagers’ survival?
A. Global warming. B. The duration of changing seasons.
C. Loss of habitats due to human activities. D. Decreased access to foods during migration.
9. What is unique about the new study on birds like western tanagers?
A. It covers a wider geographic range. B. It reveals the decline in bird populations.
C. It centers on the adaptation of bird species. D. It ensures the existence of a timing mismatch.
10 What does Loss suggest we do to safeguard migratory birds?
A. Lessen the effects of climate change. B. Preserve ecosystems for bird species.
C. Address emissions and habitat loss. D. Expand researches on threats to birds.
11 Where is the text most likely from?
A. A scientific journal. B. A bird-watching guidebook.
C. A website about climate change. D. A magazine about wildlife conservation.

Lord Norman Foster, renowned as one of the world’s foremost architects, has devoted decades to redefining the concept of tall buildings. “What we’ve done is create a sense of identify draw n from real needs,” Foster said. “It’s not a fashionable idea, but generated from the realities we were in.” His masterpiece includes iconic structures such as the HSBC building in Hong Kong. Now, he’s set his sights on Qatar.
Currently nearing completion and set to reach a height of 301 meters, Foster’s Lusail Towers are ready to claim the title of Oatar’s tallest buildings. Lusail Towers are intended to serve as a center for Oatar’s financial institutions, with four distinctive blocks, two standing at 70 stories and two at 50 stories.
But the construction itself wasn’t all plain sailing. To address the unique challenges presented by Oatar’s hot climate, Foster’s team had to depart from the materials commonly used in skyscrapers in cooler countries—— part of what Foster called a decades- long quest to “reinvent the tall building.” The design combines advanced shading with ventilation (通风), while the towers’ surfaces are coated with “marine- grade” aluminum (铝) that wraps around the buildings, protecting the glass from strong sunlight while maintaining the views and still letting in natural light. Central to the project are special shading fins (鳍), which not only optimize views and natural lighting for occupants but reduce solar radiation by 70% compared to traditional all- glass towers.
While the towers are ready to become a recognizable landmark for Lusail, Foster believes that a city’s skyline reflects what lies beneath the surface. It was crucial to integrate the towers into a “low- scale master plan.” They are strategically positioned on top of a subway line and at the end of a commercial avenue linking the waterfront to the nearby football stadium. According to Foster, the ground features of the plaza will play a significant role in the objective of transforming the area into a lively public space for the future.
12. According to Foster’s concept, what should tall buildings be like?
A. Creative. B. Identical.
C. Fashionable. D. Practical.
13. What can we learn about the Lusail Towers?
A. They will function as a global financial center.
B. They are expected to be Qartar’s tallest building.
C. They are Foster’s most renowned iconic masterpiece.
D. They have four blocks with the same style and height.
14. What was the solution to the challenges caused by Qatar’s hot climate?
A. Replacing the glass with “marine-grade” aluminum.
B. Coating the tower with an unconventional material.
C. Reducing the views and natural lighting with shading fins.
D. Protecting the glass from natural light and solar radiation.
15. What’s the goal of “low- scale master plan”?
A. To link the waterfront to the football stadium.
B. To create a remarkable plaza for the citizens.
C. To offer a dynamic public space for the future.
D. To connect a subway and a commercial avenue.
第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分 12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A fixed mindset of interest can harm creativity and innovation. If people believe they are limited to only a few particular interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections across different dimensions. ____16____ Those who with a growth mindset are also more likely to be creative when solving problems.
____17____ In June, we published findings from an intervention that succeeded in that aim. In two studies involving more than 700 first- year liberal arts undergraduates, we began by assessing how our participants saw themselves. The majority held strong interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences. ____18____
We then randomly assigned students to either our intervention or a study skills module. Our intervention included reading and reflective writing activities that helped students think about interests and passions as cultivated rather than as simply found and fixed. ____19____ The study skills module had a similar set of exercises but with an emphasis on building classic skills, such as time management and active learning.
These students were required to take at least one math and science course during their first year. That meant we could check how the intervention may have influenced their perspectives on math and science.
By the end of the year, students who had received the intervention were more interested in their required math and science courses than those who received the study skills module —— and this boost was particularly apparent among students who initially reported that they were not a“ math- and- science person”. ____20____ These students became more skilled in math and science and grew into interdisciplinary (跨学科的) scholars.
A. So can a growth mindset of interest be taught?
B. How can a growth mindset of interest be cultivated?
C. Meanwhile, a growth mindset of interest comes with many advantages.
D. Moreover, most reported that they were not a “math- and- science person”
E. They also earned better grades in courses than those receiving the study skills module.
F. However, a growth mindset of interest can fuel people's further exploration to different fields.
G. For example, students read an article stating the benefits of viewing interests as developable.

It was in the bleak midwinter, and the traveling couple, trudged (费力地走) through the cold night, seeking shelter. The father- to- be scanned the roadside for some home, some inn, some stable where his struggling companion might rest safely for the night. He looked over at her frequently. She labored along without complaint, her way made heavier by the new life growing inside her. They needed a warm, dry place safe from the bitter wind. When her time came, it must not be out here along the roadway.
Gus Kiebel, a county wildlife officer, was driving home from work when he spotted the pair in the flash of his headlights. It was snowing so hard that it was difficult to see, but he could tell the dogs were wearing collars and tags. What were they doing out here on this stretch of wooded road, when it was too cold for dogs to go outside? Gus parked his truck and approached the animals. He squatted (蹲下) and stretched out his hands to the beagles, which made no effort to escape. He read their tags by his truck’s headlights: The female was named Pepper, and the male was Cooper. He pulled out his phone to call the number listed, but it was snowing so hard that his screen blurred.
He placed the dogs in his truck, on the floorboards on the passenger side. By the time he came around to the driver’s side, they had climbed onto the passenger seat and were snuggled (依偎) together there. Gus dried his phone, snapped a picture of the pair and sent it to his wife, Katic Kiebcl.
Then he dialed the number from the dogs’ tags. A man answered and immediately grew defensive when Gus told him why he was calling. “I gave those dogs away,” the man said.“ They’ re not mine anymore.”
“ Well, do you want them back?”
“ No. I can’t take care of them.” The man hung up.
These beagles were abandoned, then. Gus looked over at them, their large ho und eyes pleading. Gus called the county dog warden’s office, but it was after hours, so he left a message. Then he called Katie.

The male western tanager (唐纳雀) looks like a little flame, while females are less showy, a dusty yellow. In the spring, they prepare to move thousands of miles to the Mountain West of Central America, flying through grasslands, deserts, and occasionally, suburban yards.
To fuel them on their lengthy journey, western tanagers fill up on insects and berries. But as global climate change causes spring to start earlier, birds such as western tanagers are arriving at their destination after what’s known as “green-up”, when flowers begin blooming and insects emerge. According to a study published in early March in the journal PNAS, this kind of timing mismatch between migrants (迁移动物) and their food sources, which is happening across North America, could have serious consequences for migratory birds’ survival. “In discussing climate change, we often focus on warming,” says Scott Loss, a co-author of the study. “But the length and timing of seasons — like when winter ends and spring begins — are some of the most dramatic effects of climate change.”
Loss and his colleagues used satellite imagery from 2002 to 2021 to calculate the average start of spring green-up along the typical migration routes of 150 North American bird species, then compared that timing with the current green-up. They found that spring is indeed beginning earlier along birds’ migration routes. “By contrary, previous studies have mainly focused on songbirds in Eastern North America,” says Morgan Tingley, an ornithologist at UCLA, “but this new investigation shows that bird species in the West and at different levels of the food web might be just as vulnerable (脆弱的).”
“Part of it is knowing which species are vulnerable to various threats,” Loss says. “This adds to the knowledge about vulnerability of a wide range of bird species.” And he hopes that the information will serve to highlight the urgent need to lower greenhouse-gas emissions as fast as possible. “It’s really important, if we can’t address climate change immediately, to try to stop habitat loss as much as we can.”
8. What may pose a direct threat to western tanagers’ survival?
A. Global warming. B. The duration of changing seasons.
C. Loss of habitats due to human activities. D. Decreased access to foods during migration.
9. What is unique about the new study on birds like western tanagers?
A. It covers a wider geographic range. B. It reveals the decline in bird populations.
C. It centers on the adaptation of bird species. D. It ensures the existence of a timing mismatch.
10. What does Loss suggest we do to safeguard migratory birds?
A. Lessen the effects of climate change. B. Preserve ecosystems for bird species.
C. Address emissions and habitat loss. D. Expand researches on threats to birds.
11 Where is the text most likely from?
A. A scientific journal. B. A bird-watching guidebook.
C. A website about climate change. D. A magazine about wildlife conservation.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章从唐纳雀入手,分析北美迁移鸟类面临的挑战及其原因,最后提出建议:希望尽快减少温室气体的排放,尽可能地阻止栖息地的丧失。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段中的“To fuel them on their lengthy journey, western tanagers fill up on insects and berries. But as global climate change causes spring to start earlier, birds such as western tanagers are arriving at their destination after what’s known as “green-up”, when flowers begin blooming and insects emerge. According to a study published in early March in the journal PNAS, this kind of timing mismatch between migrants (迁移动物) and their food sources, which is happening across North America, could have serious consequences for migratory birds’ survival. (为了在漫长的旅途中补充能量,西方唐纳雀以昆虫和浆果为食。但随着全球气候变化导致春天提前到来,像唐纳雀这样的鸟类在所谓的“返青”之后才到达目的地,这时花朵开始绽放,昆虫开始出现。根据3月初发表在《美国科学院院刊》上的一项研究,这种迁移动物和它们的食物来源之间的时间不匹配,正在北美各地发生,可能会对候鸟的生存产生严重后果。)”可知,随着全球气候变化导致春季提前开始,唐纳德雀迁徙期间获得食物的机会减少。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的““By contrary, previous studies have mainly focused on songbirds in Eastern North America,” says Morgan Tingley, an ornithologist at UCLA, “but this new investigation shows that bird species in the West and at different levels of the food web might be just as vulnerable (脆弱的).” (“相反,以前的研究主要集中在北美东部的鸣禽上,”加州大学洛杉矶分校的鸟类学Morgan Tingley说,“但这项新的调查表明,西部和食物网不同层次的鸟类物种可能同样脆弱。”)”可知,先前的研究的是北美东部的鸣禽,这项关于像西部唐纳雀这样的鸟类的新研究的独特之处在于它覆盖了更广泛的地理范围,不仅关注东北美地区的鸣禽,也包括西部及食物链不同层级上的鸟类。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段“And he hopes that the information will serve to highlight the urgent need to lower greenhouse-gas emissions as fast as possible. “It’s really important, if we can’t address climate change immediately, to try to stop habitat loss as much as we can.” (他希望这些信息将有助于强调尽快降低温室气体排放的迫切需要。“如果我们不能立即解决气候变化问题,那么尽我们所能阻止栖息地的丧失是非常重要的。”)”可知,作者期望能够尽快减少温室气体的排放,尽可能地阻止栖息地的丧失。故选C项。
【11题详解】

Lord Norman Foster renowned as one of the world’s foremost architects, has devoted decades to redefining the concept of tall buildings. “What we’ve done is create a sense of identify draw n from real needs,” Foster said. “It’s not a fashionable idea, but generated from the realities we were in.” His masterpiece includes iconic structures such as the HSBC building in Hong Kong. Now, he’s set his sights on Qatar.
Currently nearing completion and set to reach a height of 301 meters, Foster’s Lusail Towers are ready to claim the title of Oatar’s tallest buildings. Lusail Towers are intended to serve as a center for Oatar’s financial institutions, with four distinctive blocks, two standing at 70 stories and two at 50 stories.
But the construction itself wasn’t all plain sailing. To address the unique challenges presented by Oatar’s hot climate, Foster’s team had to depart from the materials commonly used in skyscrapers in cooler countries—— part of what Foster called a decades- long quest to “reinvent the tall building.” The design combines advanced shading with ventilation (通风), while the towers’ surfaces are coated with “marine- grade” aluminum (铝) that wraps around the buildings, protecting the glass from strong sunlight while maintaining the views and still letting in natural light. Central to the project are special shading fins (鳍), which not only optimize views and natural lighting for occupants but reduce solar radiation by 70% compared to traditional all- glass towers.
While the towers are ready to become a recognizable landmark for Lusail, Foster believes that a city’s skyline reflects what lies beneath the surface. It was crucial to integrate the towers into a “low- scale master plan.” They are strategically positioned on top of a subway line and at the end of a commercial avenue linking the waterfront to the nearby football stadium. According to Foster, the ground features of the plaza will play a significant role in the objective of transforming the area into a lively public space for the future.
12. According to Foster’s concept, what should tall buildings be like?
A. Creative. B. Identical.
C. Fashionable. D. Practical.
13. What can we learn about the Lusail Towers?
A. They will function as a global financial center.
B. They are expected to be Qartar’s tallest building.
C. They are Foster’s most renowned iconic masterpiece.
D. They have four blocks with the same style and height.
14. What was the solution to the challenges caused by Qatar’s hot climate?
A. Replacing the glass with “marine-grade” aluminum.
B. Coating the tower with an unconventional material.
C. Reducing the views and natural lighting with shading fins.
D. Protecting the glass from natural light and solar radiation.
15. What’s the goal of “low- scale master plan”?
A. To link the waterfront to the football stadium.
B. To create a remarkable plaza for the citizens.
C. To offer a dynamic public space for the future.
D. To connect a subway and a commercial avenue.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A fixed mindset of interest can harm creativity and innovation. If people believe they are limited to only a few particular interests and, in consequence, do not explore other areas, they may miss seeing important connections across different dimensions. ____16____ Those who with a growth mindset are also more likely to be creative when solving problems.
____17____ In June, we published findings from an intervention that succeeded in that aim. In two studies involving more than 700 first- year liberal arts undergraduates, we began by assessing how our participants saw themselves. The majority held strong interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences. ____18____
We then randomly assigned students to either our intervention or a study skills module. Our intervention included reading and reflective writing activities that helped students think about interests and passions as cultivated rather than as simply found and fixed. ____19____ The study skills module had a similar set of exercises but with an emphasis on building classic skills, such as time management and active learning.
These students were required to take at least one math and science course during their first year. That meant we could check how the intervention may have influenced their perspectives on math and science.
By the end of the year, students who had received the intervention were more interested in their required math and science courses than those who received the study skills module —— and this boost was particularly apparent among students who initially reported that they were not a“ math- and- science person”. ____20____ These students became more skilled in math and science and grew into interdisciplinary (跨学科的) scholars.
A. So can a growth mindset of interest be taught?
B. How can a growth mindset of interest be cultivated?
C. Meanwhile, a growth mindset of interest comes with many advantages.
D. Moreover, most reported that they were not a “math- and- science person”
E. They also earned better grades in courses than those receiving the study skills module.
F. However, a growth mindset of interest can fuel people's further exploration to different fields.
G. For example, students read an article stating the benefits of viewing interests as developable.

【答案】
My First Experience in Career
Last month, I had the privilege of participating in our school’s initiative, “My First Experience in Career.” It aimed to provide students like me with a glimpse into diverse professions.
My journey began at a local hospital, where I shadowed as a diligent nurse for a day. Witnessing her interactions with patients, meticulous care, and swift decision-making, I gained a deeper understanding of the immense responsibility and compassion required in this noble profession. It was an eye-opening experience that left me grateful for the healthcare workers who tirelessly save lives.
This practical experience transformed me, increasing my knowledge and igniting ambition. I’m thankful to our school for organizing such a meaningful program and excited for future opportunities.

第二节 (满分 25分)
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。
It was in the bleak midwinter, and the traveling couple, trudged (费力地走) through the cold night, seeking shelter. The father- to- be scanned the roadside for some home, some inn, some stable where his struggling companion might rest safely for the night. He looked over at her frequently. She labored along without complaint, her way made heavier by the new life growing inside her. They needed a warm, dry place safe from the bitter wind. When her time came, it must not be out here along the roadway.
Gus Kiebel, a county wildlife officer, was driving home from work when he spotted the pair in the flash of his headlights. It was snowing so hard that it was difficult to see, but he could tell the dogs were wearing collars and tags. What were they doing out here on this stretch of wooded road, when it was too cold for dogs to go outside? Gus parked his truck and approached the animals. He squatted (蹲下) and stretched out his hands to the beagles, which made no effort to escape. He read their tags by his truck’s headlights: The female was named Pepper, and the male was Cooper. He pulled out his phone to call the number listed, but it was snowing so hard that his screen blurred.
He placed the dogs in his truck, on the floorboards on the passenger side. By the time he came around to the driver’s side, they had climbed onto the passenger seat and were snuggled (依偎) together there. Gus dried his phone, snapped a picture of the pair and sent it to his wife, Katic Kiebcl.
Then he dialed the number from the dogs’ tags. A man answered and immediately grew defensive when Gus told him why he was calling. “I gave those dogs away,” the man said.“ They’ re not mine anymore.”
“ Well, do you want them back?”
“ No. I can’t take care of them.” The man hung up.
These beagles were abandoned, then. Gus looked over at them, their large ho und eyes pleading. Gus called the county dog warden’s office, but it was after hours, so he left a message. Then he called Katie.

【答案】“You cannot put them back out in the snowstorm,” she said. “Bring them home.” Gus nodded in agreement. When he arrived home, the beagles seemed relieved to be in a warm place. Katie welcomed them with open arms. She prepared a cozy corner for them with blankets and food. The beagles, Pepper and Cooper, wagged their tails gratefully. That night, as the snow continued to fall outside, they found comfort and safety in their new temporary home.
Already having a family dog, Gus phoned a nearby animal welfare center the next day. The staff at the center promised to take in the beagles and find them suitable forever homes. Soon, they arrived to pick up Pepper and Cooper. Gus and Katie were a bit sad to see them go but knew it was for the best. As the beagles were led away, they looked back as if to say thank you. With hope in their hearts, Gus and Katie knew that these abandoned dogs would soon find the love and care they deserved.
【解析】
