Last month, Lime Technology, a company that runs, so-called, “micromobility” transportation systems around the world, was selected to operate Vancouver’s first scooter rental program. Now, more details are available as follows.
How does it work?
Using the Lime app on their smartphones, customers can locate an available scooter at a parking station in Vancouver, sign it out, cruise around, and then park it at any station in the same area. E-scooters in the city have a speed limit of 25 km/h and are allowed on roads and bike lanes, but not sidewalks.
Where can people ride the scooters?
Initially, riders are supposed to stay inside the designated area. If they scoot outside the area, the motor of the scooter will cease to function, and it will not restart until they walk it back inside the area.
What’s the cost to riders?
“Monthly and annual passes will also be available at much more affordable rates,” Danielle Wiley, Vancouver’s associate director of, street use management, said, “to aid the city’s transportation and climate goals of reducing people’s dependence on private cars.”
What can Vancouver learn from cities with a shared e-scooter system?
E-scooters, run by several companies including Lime, have increased in popularity around the world, but not without their critics. Paris forbade e-scooter rentals last year following complaints from pedestrians, and just last week, Melbourne followed suit.
“We want to avoid the problems of shared e-scooters as reported elsewhere,” Wiley said. “That’s why it is hugely important for us to have physical parking stations.”
1. When using e-scooters, customers can’t ____________.
A. employ the Lime app B. ride on bicycle tracks
C. park scooters randomly D. ride at limited speeds
2. What will happen if an e-scooter rider goes outside the designated area?
A The rider will be issued a ticket. B. The scooter won’t operate properly.
C. The transportation will be affected. D. The scooter will start automatically.
3. Which of the following cities ban e-scooter rentals?
A. Paris and Melbourne. B. Valencia and Paris.
C. Melbourne and Vancouver. D. Vancouver and Valencia.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A
【解析】

On April 26th, 2022, Italian traveler Vienna Cammarota set off from Venice, the hometown of the encouraging explorer Marco Polo, with the ambition of retracing his route to China along the ancient Silk Road on foot.
With a simple backpack and two trekking poles, 74-year-old Cammarota covered over 20,000 km and passed through dozens of countries. The moment she set foot in China on August 29th, she was warmly greeted by people who put on traditional dance and singing performances for her arrival via Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. From Xinjiang, Cammarota embarked on a 15-month cultural journey across China and explored over 30 cities in 17 provinces and autonomous regions. Her journey will come to an end in Beijing to mark the 750th anniversary of Marco Polo’s arrival in China.
Throughout her journey Cammarota witnessed the transformation of the ancient Silk Road into a corridor of economic and cultural exchange, saying “I have seen the bridges, highways, and railways built under China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which connect countries in a way that echoes the Silk Road’s historic role in facilitating trade and cultural exchange.” Cammarota reached Tajikistan, where she visited the China-Tajikistan highway project. The infrastructure project, once completed, was expected to enhance regional connectivity and bring new opportunities.
For Cammarota, this journey was more than retracing Marco Polo’s footsteps. She hoped her travels would help people in Italy and the West see the true beauty and greatness of China. “This is a land filled with numerous UNESCO heritage sites, cutting-edge technology, and a harmonious balance between urban development and natural preservation,” Cammarota said.
Describing herself as an ambassador of cultural exchange and modern-day Marco Polo, Cammarota noted, “I want to know about Marco Polo and the Silk Road, but I also want to send a message to women of my age — it’s never too late to pursue your dreams.”
4. What encouraged Cammarota to walk along the Silk Road?
A. Marco Polo’s travelling experience. B. The transformation of the Silk Road.
C. Her love for adventure and exploration. D. Her desire to promote cultural exchange.
5. What does the underlined phrase “embarked on” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Changed. B. Started.
C. Accomplished. D. Continued.
6. Which of the following is NOT witnessed by Cammarota in China?
A. The traditional performances. B. The friendliness of Chinese people.
C. The China-Tajikistan highway project. D. The infrastructures built under the BRI.
7. Which of the following can best describe Cammarota?
A. Cautious and persistent. B. Courageous and intelligent.
C. Generous and adaptable. D. Adventurous and ambitious.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D
【解析】

C
Fears about climate change and global conflict destroying plant species and changing the face of the planet have prompted environmentalists and researchers to send 30,000 new seed samples to a “doomsday vault(末日种子库)” on a remote Norwegian island in the Arctic Ocean.
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault on Spitsbergen Island, buried so deep inside a mountain as to withstand nuclear war and other disasters, was constructed to reestablish plant life following a worldwide disaster. Opened in 2008, the Svalbard Vault serves as a backup for the world's gene banks, which store the genetic codes of thousands of plant species. It remains naturally cold due to a surrounding layer of permafrost(永冻土层).
“Climate change and conflict threaten infrastructure and impact food security for over 700 million people in more than 75 countries worldwide,” Stefan Schmitz, an organizer of the facility, said, “Gene banks are stepping up efforts to back up seed collections, and we are proud to support them by providing a safe place in Norway.”
Recent deposits include seeds for vegetables and herbs from the Union of Agricultural Work Committees in Palestine, seeds from farmers in Bolivia, and samples for 1,145 types of maize, rice, sesame, and sorghum from Chad, which are able to endure extreme heat and arid conditions and can be invaluable to countries impacted by global warming. While the seed bank could benefit the entire planet, it is being run and funded by the Norwegian government, in partnership with the Crop Trust and the Nordic Genetic Resource Center. The vault, which cost $ 8.8 million to build, is free to use for depositors wanting to store seeds that could be used to reestablish crop lines after their disappearance because of natural or unnatural disasters.
Lise Lykke Steffensen, executive director of the Nordic Genetic Resource Center said, “Humanity depends on a wide diversity of genetic resources to meet future challenges. Therefore, it is comforting that many gene banks choose to be part of this seed deposit. The Svalbard Vault has an important purpose to secure these valuable collections, not least given the state of the world today.”
8. What is the purpose of establishing the Seed Vault?
A. To provide seeds to plant on the islands. B. To endure nuclear war and other disasters.
C. To store seeds for scientific research. D. To bring plant life back after a big catastrophe.
9. What can we learn from the seeds recently deposited?
A. They’re all from developed countries. B. They’re grown only in cold climates.
C. They’re valuable for medical purposes. D. They’re used to defend extreme weather.
10. Who can use the Seed Vault for free?
A. Farmers from Palestine, Bolivia and Chad.
B. Any organization interested in planting seeds.
C. Organizations or individuals depositing seeds.
D. The Union of Agricultural Work Committees.
11. What’s the Lise Lykke Steffensen’s attitude towards the seed deposit?
A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A

A group of researchers has published new findings in Science on potential risks from the development of mirror bacteria — synthetic organisms in which all molecules (分子) have reversed chirality.
Scientists had begun early work toward creating mirror bacteria, and while the capability is at least a decade away, recent years have seen significant progress. The new paper finds that, if created, these organisms may pose significant dangers to humans, animals, plants, and environmental health.
The 38 authors working in nine countries include leading experts in immunology, plant pathology and so on. The publication in Science is accompanied by a detailed 300-page technical report.
While any threat is not approaching, the Science paper finds that mirror bacteria may pose serious risks. Immune defenses in humans, animals, and plants rely on identifying particular molecular geometries found in invading bacteria. If these shapes were reflected — as they would be uniquely in mirror bacteria — recognition would be impaired (受损的) and many basic immune defenses could fail, potentially leaving organisms vulnerable to infection.
The analysis also suggests that mirror bacteria in the environment may be able to evade (逃避) natural predators like phages, which rely heavily on chirally-mediated interactions to kill bacteria and limit their populations. Transport via animals and humans could enable spread between diverse ecosystems. Persistent and widespread environmental populations of mirror bacteria would expose humans, animals and plants to an ongoing risk of infection — a serious threat to humans and to global ecosystems.
The authors call for further inspection of their findings and conclude that, unless compelling evidence emerges that these organisms would not pose extraordinary dangers, mirror bacteria should not be created.
This paper marks a starting point for a broader discussion about the risks from mirror bacteria, including participation from the global scientific community, policymakers, research funders, and other stakeholders. Several of the authors on the paper are involved in planning a series of events throughout 2025 to inspect the findings of the paper and discuss steps that can be taken to prevent risks from mirror bacteria.
12. What is the characteristic of mirror bacteria?
A. They are made up of mirror molecules.
B. Their molecules have opposite chirality.
C. They are active in a mirrored environment.
D. They can change their molecular structure.
13. What can we-learn about mirror bacteria from paragraph 2?
A. They will come out very soon. B. They will barely harm creatures.
C. They will be made no less than a decade. D. They will have an effect in ten years.
14. What consequence might mirror bacteria bring according to the new findings?
A. Natural predators can’t kill them.
B. Their molecules are the same as normal bacteria’s.
C. Immune defenses can’t tell their molecular shapes.
D. Immune protection can be impaired directly by them.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. The Creation of Mirror Bacteria
B. Mirror Bacteria: Risks and Global Responses
C. Scientists’ New Findings on Bacterial Infection
D. The Effect of Mirror Bacteria on Immune Systems
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一组研究人员在《科学》杂志上发表的关于镜像细菌的新发现,阐述了镜像细菌的特点、潜在风险,以及作者们对此的呼吁和后续计划等内容。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A group of researchers has published new findings in Science on potential risks from the development of mirror bacteria — synthetic organisms in which all molecules (分子) have reversed chirality(一组研究人员在《科学》杂志上发表了关于镜面细菌潜在风险的新发现——镜面细菌是指所有分子的手性都反转的合成生物)”可知,镜像细菌是一种合成生物,其所有分子都具有相反的手性。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Scientists had begun early work toward creating mirror bacteria, and while the capability is at least a decade away, recent years have seen significant progress(科学家们已经开始了创建镜面细菌的早期工作,虽然这一能力至少还有十年的时间,但近年来已经取得了显著的进展)”可知,科学家们已经开始了创建镜像细菌的早期工作,但至少还需要十年时间才能实现这一能力。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Immune defenses in humans, animals, and plants rely on identifying particular molecular geometries found in invading bacteria. If these shapes were reflected — as they would be uniquely in mirror bacteria — recognition would be impaired (受损的) and many basic immune defenses could fail, potentially leaving organisms vulnerable to infection(人类、动物和植物的免疫防御依赖于识别入侵细菌中特定的分子几何形状。如果这些形状被反射——正如在镜面细菌中那样,识别过程将会受到损害,许多基本的免疫防御可能会失效,从而使生物体容易受到感染)”可知,免疫防御依赖于识别入侵细菌中特定的分子几何形状。如果这些形状是反向的(就像镜像细菌中独特的那样),识别就会受损。可推理出镜像细菌可能带来的后果是免疫防御无法辨别它们的分子形状,故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,根据文章第一段“A group of researchers has published new findings in Science on potential risks from the development of mirror bacteria — synthetic organisms in which all molecules (分子) have reversed chirality(一组研究人员在《科学》杂志上发表了关于镜面细菌潜在风险的新发现——镜面细菌是指所有分子的手性都反转的合成生物)”以及最后一段“Several of the authors on the paper are involved in planning a series of events throughout 2025 to inspect the findings of the paper and discuss steps that can be taken to prevent risks from mirror bacteria(论文的几位作者正参与筹划2025年全年的一系列活动,以检验论文的发现,并讨论可采取哪些步骤来防范镜面细菌带来的风险)”可知,文章主要围绕镜像细菌的风险展开,介绍了其潜在风险,如对人类、动物、植物的免疫防御的影响,以及作者们呼吁进一步检查研究结果,认为在没有令人信服的证据表明这些生物不会构成巨大危险之前,不应创建镜像细菌,还提到了将开展一系列活动来检查研究结果和讨论预防风险的措施等,B项“Mirror Bacteria: Risks and Global Responses(镜面细菌:风险与全球应对)”表达的含义适合用作本文标题。故选B项。
第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sometimes you know that you should decline a request, but somehow end up reluctantly taking on an additional responsibility. ___16___ If you struggle with setting boundaries, don’t despair. Here are ways to sharpen this tool.
Don’t ignore how you feel.
Emotions are not just in your head. You can feel them throughout your body. When someone approaches you with a request, pay attention to your body’s response. It tells you how to respond before you even say a word. For example, as they speak, you might feel muscle tension. ___17___
Don’t overexplain yourself.
In an effort to cope with difficult emotions such as guilt, you tend to overshare the reasons for refusal. However, the more information you share, the more likely you are to be manipulated into saying yes. Sharing information gives others the opportunity to break through your boundaries. ___18___ You can be kind and direct when setting boundaries.
___19___
When someone approaches you with a request, a common method is to buy time. By doing this, you hope that they will forget it, and that you will be off the hook. However, this method does not work. Not resolving the matter in real time allows emotional forces such as guilt to influence you. As a result, a delayed no may turn into a reluctant yes.
Set boundaries often.
Becoming proficient in any skill takes time, and so does setting boundaries. Initially, it may be uncomfortable. You may struggle for words or not sound convincing, but over time, it gets easier. ___20___ Constantly walking on eggshells for fear of upsetting people is an exhausting way to live.
A. Don’t delay giving your response.
B. Don’t ignore the method of delay.
C. That’s your body’s signal to refuse.
D. The reason is that you lack firm boundaries.
E. Remember, not setting boundaries is tough too.
F. When saying no, you should keep it short and sweet.
G. Try to understand others’ perspectives before setting boundaries.
【答案】16. D 17. C 18. F 19. A 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一些在面对他人请求时如何明确设立界限、学会拒绝的方法,包括关注自身感受、不过度解释、及时回应以及经常练习设立界限等。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Sometimes you know that you should decline a request, but somehow end up reluctantly taking on an additional responsibility(有时你知道应该拒绝一个请求,但不知为何最终却勉强承担了额外的责任)”以及下文“If you struggle with setting boundaries, don’t despair(如果你在设定界限方面有困难,不要绝望)”可知,上文说的是一种情况:你知道应该拒绝一个请求,但不知为何最终却勉强承担了额外的责任,下文说的是你在设定界限方面可能有困难,但不要绝望,可推理出此处需要一个句子来解释为什么会出现这种勉强承担额外责任的情况。D选项“The reason is that you lack firm boundaries(原因是你缺乏坚定的界限)”既承接了上文的现象,又引出了下文关于设定界限的内容,符合语境,故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“When someone approaches you with a request, pay attention to your body’s response. It tells you how to respond before you even say a word. For example, as they speak, you might feel muscle tension(当有人向你提出请求时,注意你身体的反应。它甚至在你开口说话之前就告诉你该如何回应。例如,当他们说话时,你可能会感到肌肉紧张)”可知,上文说的是有人开口向你提出请求,你可能会感到肌肉紧张,可推理出下文对这种现象进行解释,C选项“That’s your body’s signal to refuse(那是你身体发出的拒绝信号)”进一步说明了肌肉紧张这种身体反应意味着要拒绝,与上文紧密相关,故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Don’t overexplain yourself(不要过度解释自己)”以及下文“You can be kind and direct when setting boundaries(在设定界限时,你可以既友善又直接)”可知,此处说的是拒绝时应既友善又直接。F选项“When saying no, you should keep it short and sweet(当说“不”时,你应该简洁明了)”符合语境,既呼应了上文不过度解释的观点,又与下文友善直接设定界限相契合,故选F项。
【19题详解】
根据下文“When someone approaches you with a request, a common method is to buy time. By doing this, you hope that they will forget it, and that you will be off the hook. However, this method does not work. Not resolving the matter in real time allows emotional forces such as guilt to influence you. As a result, a delayed no may turn into a reluctant yes(当有人向你提出请求时,一种常见的方法是拖延时间。通过这样做,你希望他们会忘记这件事,而你也能摆脱困境。然而,这种方法行不通。不及时解决问题会让诸如内疚等情感因素影响你。结果,延迟的拒绝可能会变成勉强的同意)”可知,上文说的是延迟拒绝的方法是行不通的,因为最后的结果可能会变成勉强的同意,可推理出上文说的是不要延迟给出你的回应,A选项“Don’t delay giving your response(不要延迟给出你的回应)”表达的含义能够概括该段主旨,作为小标题合适,故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Becoming proficient in any skill takes time, and so does setting boundaries. Initially, it may be uncomfortable. You may struggle for words or not sound convincing, but over time, it gets easier(精通任何技能都需要时间,设定界限也是如此。一开始,这可能会让人不舒服。你可能会词不达意或听起来不那么有说服力,但随着时间的推移,这会变得更容易)”以及下文 “Constantly walking on eggshells for fear of upsetting people is an exhausting way to live(因为害怕惹人生气而小心翼翼地生活是一种令人疲惫的生活方式)”可知,上文说的是设定界限在一开始可能会让人不舒服,但随着时间的推移,这会变得容易,下文说的是害怕惹人生气而小心翼翼地生活是一种令人疲惫的生活方式,这是不设定界限带来的不良后果,可推理出空白处说的是不设定界限也很艰难,E选项“Remember, not setting boundaries is tough too(记住,不设定界限也很艰难)”承上启下,符合语境,说明了设定界限虽开始不易,但不设定界限同样会带来不良后果,故选E项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国绘画这一世界上最古老且最持久的艺术遗产之一,包括其绘画工具、创作要求、主要题材以及不同时期的发展和融合创新,展望了中国绘画未来的魅力。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:中国画作为世界上最古老、最持久的艺术遗产之一,有一个丰富而复杂的故事要讲述。空白处在句子中作后置定语,使用非谓语动词,因空白处表示的是一个指向将来的不确定的动作,使用动词不定式,根据句意,“故事”和“讲述”之间存在被动关系,既可以用动词不定式的主动形式 to tell表示“有要讲述的事”(此时用主动表被动含义),也可以用动词不定式的被动形式to be told表示“有被讲述的事”,故填to tell/to be told。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这个旅程从墨开始,墨是一种基本的材料,只需加一点水在砚台上研磨到理想的浓稠度。修饰名词material要用形容词作定语,故填fundamental。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:然后画家使用一支由山羊、鹿或狼的毛制成的尖笔,笔杆为竹子。空白处在这里作brush的后置定语,且逻辑主语brush与craft之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以要用过去分词,故填crafted。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:通常,传统的中国画是在一段丝绸或一张纸上创作的,其表面有吸水性,不容许涂改或修正。这是一个包含定语从句的复合句,先行词是silk or paper,引导词在从句中作定语,修饰surface,所以要用关系代词whose,故填whose。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:因此,一个人必须事先知道他打算做什么。根据上文“allowing no room for erasure or correction (不容许涂改或修正)”可知上文提到中国画不容许涂改或修正。再根据下文“know beforehand what he intends to do (事先知道他打算做什么)”可知下文说的是画家要事先知道自己的创作内容,可推理出上下文之间为因果关系,故填therefore。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:为了创作出成功的作品,每一笔都需要坚定不移的信心、迅速的执行以及通过多年练习而掌握的精湛技艺。空白处需要一个名词作achieve的宾语,故填creation。
【42题详解】
考查时态。句意:唐朝见证了人物画达到前所未有的高度。空白处在句子中作谓语,本句描述的是唐朝时期发生的事情,是过去发生的事情,谓语动词要用一般过去时,故填witnessed。
【43题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:在19世纪和20世纪,接触到西方艺术后,中国画家开始发展将传统技法与西方印象派和透视法相结合的新风格。空白处在句子中作宾语,使用名词,因此处为泛指,指多种传统技法,要用名词的复数形式,故填techniques。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:随着古今的完美融合,中国画必将闪耀出更加光辉和独特的魅力,吸引世界各地的艺术爱好者。根据下文“the perfect integration of ancient and modern (古今的完美融合)”可知空白处与后面部分做状语,表示伴随的状态,应使用介词with,故填With。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:同上。空白处用现在分词作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果,故填attracting。

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。
Emily, 39 years old, is a runway model, a disability-rights activist and a freelance writer whose work has been featured in The New York Times and Glamour.
From her early childhood, Emily was interested in fashion, fascinated by beautiful clothes and skirts. Unfortunately, fashion didn’t show much interest in her. Due to a genetic bone and muscle disorder, she was less than 1.21 meters tall and couldn’t walk. To treat her disease, she underwent seven surgeries before the age of 17. Fortunately, she got better and could even walk a short distance.
As Emily grew older, her passion for fashion only intensified. Every time she saw models shining on the runway on TV, an envious glimmer would flash across her face. Among those models, she particularly admired a model named Grace, who was not only a leader in the fashion world but also frequently encouraged people to show concern for the disabled.
One day, when Emily was doing rehabilitation training in the park, she came across a special community fashion show. One particular model left a deep impression on Emily. The model was dressed in a graphic T-shirt, tight pants and an oversize vest with a flurry fur coat. When Emily’s eyes swept over the model’s arms, she was shocked to find that both of the model’s sleeves were empty. However, her smile was so bright and brilliant. This sight deeply touched Emily.
From that day on, Emily worked even harder for her dream. She watched every fashion show of Grace online, carefully learned her stylish outfits and even posted selfies on Twitter every day, hoping to draw public attention towards the fashion industry for individuals with disabilities. In addition, she followed the “Dream Runway” show on Twitter, which her idol Grace often attended. Driven by her passion, she even mustered up the courage to send an email to the “Dream Runway” show, applying to be one of the 24 models for their fall fashion show. Then, one day, a long-awaited reply arrived from the show, extending a warm invitation for her to step onto the runway as a model.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Finally came the big day, which she had been longing for.

As she went off the stage, she saw Grace smiling at her.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
Finally came the big day which she had been longing for. Standing backstage, Emily felt her heart racing and palms sweating. Before her, the brilliant lights flooded the glittering runway. She walked onto it with staggering steps, yet her eyes burned with firm determination. Each move she made felt like a conquest over life’s barriers, as if showing disability couldn’t hold back her dream. Seeing the under-1.21-meter model, the audience fell into a brief silence, and then whispers began to spread among them. Emily just walked forward, wearing a smile of confidence. The initial whispers faded away. The audience, stunned by her courage and determination, burst into warm cheers and applause.
As she went off the stage, she saw Grace smiling at her. Grace walked towards her and said in a cheerful voice, “Emily, your performance is amazing! And you show us what a true model is like!” Emily was speechless for a moment, but then she managed to stammer a “thank you”. Grace’s encouragement meant a lot to Emily. She was overwhelmed with a sense of accomplishment and affirmation. It dawned on her that her journey had been about more than just walking a runway; it was about challenging society’s narrow perception of a true model and inspiring others to fearlessly pursue their dreams despite the obstacles ahead.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了患有遗传性骨骼和肌肉疾病,身高不到1.21米Emily为了实现当T台模特梦想的个人成长故事。她在十七岁之前进行了七次手术。她崇拜呼吁大众关注残疾人的模特Grace,并在见到一位残疾人模特的T台秀后,更坚定了成为模特的梦想。为此她付出了更多的努力,并大胆地向梦想T台秀提出申请。终于她收到了梦想T台秀的回复,邀请她成为一名走秀模特。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句“最终,她期待已久的大日子来了。”可知,第一段可描写Emily参加走秀那天的场景。可以描写她在后台紧张的心情,以及踏上T台时的表现,还有观众看到这样一个特别的模特时的反应,以及Emily是如何走完这个秀的。根据正能量原则,观众最后的反应肯定是给予掌声鼓励并欣赏的。
②由第二段首句“当她走下台时,她看到Grace正在朝她微笑。”可知,第二段可描写Emily下台后她与偶像Grace的互动。Grace对她说了什么,做了什么。在得到自己偶像的认可后,Emily的感受如何,她又得到了什么样的感悟。
2. 续写线索:后台等候——踏上T台——观众反应——完成走秀——获得掌声——下台后偶像的认可和赞赏——个人感受及领悟。
3. 词汇激活

①阻止:hold back/stop
②鼓励:inspire/encourage
③消失:fade away/disappear

【高分句型2】Each move she made felt like a conquest over life’s barriers, as if showing disability couldn’t hold back her dream.(运用了省略关系代词的定语从句、as if引导的状语从句中的省略以及省略that的宾语从句)

Last month, Lime Technology, a company that runs, so-called, “micromobility” transportation systems around the world, was selected to operate Vancouver’s first scooter rental program. Now, more details are available as follows.
How does it work?
Using the Lime app on their smartphones, customers can locate an available scooter at a parking station in Vancouver, sign it out, cruise around, and then park it at any station in the same area. E-scooters in the city have a speed limit of 25 km/h and are allowed on roads and bike lanes, but not sidewalks.
Where can people ride the scooters?
Initially, riders are supposed to stay inside the designated area. If they scoot outside the area, the motor of the scooter will cease to function, and it will not restart until they walk it back inside the area.
What’s the cost to riders?
“Monthly and annual passes will also be available at much more affordable rates,” Danielle Wiley, Vancouver’s associate director of, street use management, said, “to aid the city’s transportation and climate goals of reducing people’s dependence on private cars.”
What can Vancouver learn from cities with a shared e-scooter system?
E-scooters, run by several companies including Lime, have increased in popularity around the world, but not without their critics. Paris forbade e-scooter rentals last year following complaints from pedestrians, and just last week, Melbourne followed suit.
“We want to avoid the problems of shared e-scooters as reported elsewhere,” Wiley said. “That’s why it is hugely important for us to have physical parking stations.”
1. When using e-scooters, customers can’t ____________.
A. employ the Lime app B. ride on bicycle tracks
C. park scooters randomly D. ride at limited speeds
2. What will happen if an e-scooter rider goes outside the designated area?
A. The rider will be issued a ticket. B. The scooter won’t operate properly.
C. The transportation will be affected. D. The scooter will start automatically.
3. Which of the following cities ban e-scooter rentals?
A. Paris and Melbourne. B. Valencia and Paris.
C. Melbourne and Vancouver. D. Vancouver and Valencia.
B
On April 26th, 2022, Italian traveler Vienna Cammarota set off from Venice, the hometown of the encouraging explorer Marco Polo, with the ambition of retracing his route to China along the ancient Silk Road on foot.
With a simple backpack and two trekking poles, 74-year-old Cammarota covered over 20,000 km and passed through dozens of countries. The moment she set foot in China on August 29th, she was warmly greeted by people who put on traditional dance and singing performances for her arrival via Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. From Xinjiang, Cammarota embarked on a 15-month cultural journey across China and explored over 30 cities in 17 provinces and autonomous regions. Her journey will come to an end in Beijing to mark the 750th anniversary of Marco Polo’s arrival in China.
Throughout her journey, Cammarota witnessed the transformation of the ancient Silk Road into a corridor of economic and cultural exchange, saying “I have seen the bridges, highways, and railways built under China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which connect countries in a way that echoes the Silk Road’s historic role in facilitating trade and cultural exchange.” Cammarota reached Tajikistan, where she visited the China-Tajikistan highway project. The infrastructure project, once completed, was expected to enhance regional connectivity and bring new opportunities.
For Cammarota, this journey was more than retracing Marco Polo’s footsteps. She hoped her travels would help people in Italy and the West see the true beauty and greatness of China. “This is a land filled with numerous UNESCO heritage sites, cutting-edge technology, and a harmonious balance between urban development and natural preservation,” Cammarota said.
Describing herself as an ambassador of cultural exchange and modern-day Marco Polo, Cammarota noted, “I want to know about Marco Polo and the Silk Road, but I also want to send a message to women of my age — it’s never too late to pursue your dreams.”
4. What encouraged Cammarota to walk along the Silk Road?
A. Marco Polo’s travelling experience. B. The transformation of the Silk Road.
C. Her love for adventure and exploration. D. Her desire to promote cultural exchange.
5. What does the underlined phrase “embarked on” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Changed. B. Started.
C. Accomplished. D. Continued.
6. Which of the following is NOT witnessed by Cammarota in China?
A. The traditional performances. B. The friendliness of Chinese people.
C The China-Tajikistan highway project. D. The infrastructures built under the BRI.
7. Which of the following can best describe Cammarota?
A. Cautious and persistent. B. Courageous and intelligent.
C. Generous and adaptable. D. Adventurous and ambitious.
C
Fears about climate change and global conflict destroying plant species and changing the face of the planet have prompted environmentalists and researchers to send 30,000 new seed samples to a “doomsday vault(末日种子库)” on a remote Norwegian island in the Arctic Ocean.
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault on Spitsbergen Island, buried so deep inside a mountain as to withstand nuclear war and other disasters, was constructed to reestablish plant life following a worldwide disaster. Opened in 2008, the Svalbard Vault serves as a backup for the world's gene banks, which store the genetic codes of thousands of plant species. It remains naturally cold due to a surrounding layer of permafrost(永冻土层).
“Climate change and conflict threaten infrastructure and impact food security for over 700 million people in more than 75 countries worldwide,” Stefan Schmitz, an organizer of the facility, said, “Gene banks are stepping up efforts to back up seed collections, and we are proud to support them by providing a safe place in Norway.”
Recent deposits include seeds for vegetables and herbs from the Union of Agricultural Work Committees in Palestine, seeds from farmers in Bolivia, and samples for 1,145 types of maize, rice, sesame, and sorghum from Chad, which are able to endure extreme heat and arid conditions and can be invaluable to countries impacted by global warming. While the seed bank could benefit the entire planet, it is being run and funded by the Norwegian government, in partnership with the Crop Trust and the Nordic Genetic Resource Center. The vault, which cost $ 8.8 million to build, is free to use for depositors wanting to store seeds that could be used to reestablish crop lines after their disappearance because of natural or unnatural disasters.
Lise Lykke Steffensen executive director of the Nordic Genetic Resource Center said, “Humanity depends on a wide diversity of genetic resources to meet future challenges. Therefore, it is comforting that many gene banks choose to be part of this seed deposit. The Svalbard Vault has an important purpose to secure these valuable collections, not least given the state of the world today.”
8. What is the purpose of establishing the Seed Vault?
A. To provide seeds to plant on the islands. B. To endure nuclear war and other disasters.
C. To store seeds for scientific research. D. To bring plant life back after a big catastrophe.
9. What can we learn from the seeds recently deposited?
A. They’re all from developed countries. B. They’re grown only in cold climates.
C. They’re valuable for medical purposes. D. They’re used to defend extreme weather.
10. Who can use the Seed Vault for free?
A. Farmers from Palestine, Bolivia and Chad.
B. Any organization interested in planting seeds.
C. Organizations or individuals depositing seeds.
D. The Union of Agricultural Work Committees.
11. What’s the Lise Lykke Steffensen’s attitude towards the seed deposit?
A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
D
A group of researchers has published new findings in Science on potential risks from the development of mirror bacteria — synthetic organisms in which all molecules (分子) have reversed chirality.
Scientists had begun early work toward creating mirror bacteria, and while the capability is at least a decade away, recent years have seen significant progress. The new paper finds that, if created, these organisms may pose significant dangers to humans, animals, plants, and environmental health.
The 38 authors working in nine countries include leading experts in immunology plant pathology and so on. The publication in Science is accompanied by a detailed 300-page technical report.
While any threat is not approaching, the Science paper finds that mirror bacteria may pose serious risks. Immune defenses in humans, animals, and plants rely on identifying particular molecular geometries found in invading bacteria. If these shapes were reflected — as they would be uniquely in mirror bacteria — recognition would be impaired (受损的) and many basic immune defenses could fail, potentially leaving organisms vulnerable to infection.
The analysis also suggests that mirror bacteria in the environment may be able to evade (逃避) natural predators like phages, which rely heavily on chirally-mediated interactions to kill bacteria and limit their populations. Transport via animals and humans could enable spread between diverse ecosystems. Persistent and widespread environmental populations of mirror bacteria would expose humans, animals and plants to an ongoing risk of infection — a serious threat to humans and to global ecosystems.
The authors call for further inspection of their findings and conclude that, unless compelling evidence emerges that these organisms would not pose extraordinary dangers, mirror bacteria should not be created.
This paper marks a starting point for a broader discussion about the risks from mirror bacteria, including participation from the global scientific community, policymakers, research funders, and other stakeholders. Several of the authors on the paper are involved in planning a series of events throughout 2025 to inspect the findings of the paper and discuss steps that can be taken to prevent risks from mirror bacteria.
12. What is the characteristic of mirror bacteria?
A. They are made up of mirror molecules.
B. Their molecules have opposite chirality.
C. They are active in a mirrored environment.
D. They can change their molecular structure.
13. What can we-learn about mirror bacteria from paragraph 2?
A. They will come out very soon. B. They will barely harm creatures.
C. They will be made no less than a decade. D. They will have an effect in ten years.
14. What consequence might mirror bacteria bring according to the new findings?
A. Natural predators can’t kill them.
B. Their molecules are the same as normal bacteria’s.
C. Immune defenses can’t tell their molecular shapes.
D. Immune protection can be impaired directly by them.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. The Creation of Mirror Bacteria
B. Mirror Bacteria: Risks and Global Responses
C. Scientists’ New Findings on Bacterial Infection
D. The Effect of Mirror Bacteria on Immune Systems

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sometimes you know that you should decline a request, but somehow end up reluctantly taking on an additional responsibility. ___16___ If you struggle with setting boundaries, don’t despair. Here are ways to sharpen this tool.
Don’t ignore how you feel.
Emotions are not just in your head. You can feel them throughout your body. When someone approaches you with a request, pay attention to your body’s response. It tells you how to respond before you even say a word. For example, as they speak, you might feel muscle tension. ___17___
Don’t overexplain yourself.
In an effort to cope with difficult emotions such as guilt, you tend to overshare the reasons for refusal. However, the more information you share, the more likely you are to be manipulated into saying yes. Sharing information gives others the opportunity to break through your boundaries. ___18___ You can be kind and direct when setting boundaries.
___19___
When someone approaches you with a request, a common method is to buy time. By doing this, you hope that they will forget it, and that you will be off the hook. However, this method does not work. Not resolving the matter in real time allows emotional forces such as guilt to influence you. As a result, a delayed no may turn into a reluctant yes.
Set boundaries often.
Becoming proficient in any skill takes time, and so does setting boundaries. Initially, it may be uncomfortable. You may struggle for words or not sound convincing, but over time, it gets easier. ___20___ Constantly walking on eggshells for fear of upsetting people is an exhausting way to live.
A. Don’t delay giving your response.
B. Don’t ignore the method of delay.
C. That’s your body’s signal to refuse.
D. The reason is that you lack firm boundaries.
E. Remember, not setting boundaries is tough too.
F. When saying no, you should keep it short and sweet.
G. Try to understand others’ perspectives before setting boundaries.

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。
Emily, 39 years old, is a runway model, a disability-rights activist and a freelance writer whose work has been featured in The New York Times and Glamour.
From her early childhood, Emily was interested in fashion, fascinated by beautiful clothes and skirts. Unfortunately, fashion didn’t show much interest in her. Due to a genetic bone and muscle disorder, she was less than 1.21 meters tall and couldn’t walk. To treat her disease, she underwent seven surgeries before the age of 17. Fortunately, she got better and could even walk a short distance.
As Emily grew older, her passion for fashion only intensified. Every time she saw models shining on the runway on TV, an envious glimmer would flash across her face. Among those models, she particularly admired a model named Grace, who was not only a leader in the fashion world but also frequently encouraged people to show concern for the disabled.
One day, when Emily was doing rehabilitation training in the park, she came across a special community fashion show. One particular model left a deep impression on Emily. The model was dressed in a graphic T-shirt, tight pants and an oversize vest with a flurry fur coat. When Emily’s eyes swept over the model’s arms, she was shocked to find that both of the model’s sleeves were empty. However, her smile was so bright and brilliant. This sight deeply touched Emily.
From that day on, Emily worked even harder for her dream. She watched every fashion show of Grace online, carefully learned her stylish outfits and even posted selfies on Twitter every day, hoping to draw public attention towards the fashion industry for individuals with disabilities. In addition, she followed the “Dream Runway” show on Twitter, which her idol Grace often attended. Driven by her passion, she even mustered up the courage to send an email to the “Dream Runway” show, applying to be one of the 24 models for their fall fashion show. Then, one day, a long-awaited reply arrived from the show, extending a warm invitation for her to step onto the runway as a model.
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。
Finally came the big day, which she had been longing for.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As she went off the stage, she saw Grace smiling at her.
