B Ben was eleven years old when he spotted his neighbour, Julie, working in her garden. He popped his head over the fence, and said to her, “I' ve seen you' re very good with a lawn mower(割草机) and gardening tools. The hedge(树篱) over the pathway near here has become so overgrown that I am planning to cut it back myself. Would you like to help out?” Julie loved the idea of helping Ben and their community. They agreed to cut the hedge the following Sunday. Ben's brother Josh, aged 8 at the time, also came along to help. All three of them tackled away at it until they reduced it. They posted photos of their handiwork on“Our Malmesbury”, their local Facebook Group. The community reaction was amazing. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury seemed to embrace their team spirit and felt inspired to follow their lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep their town tidy. With many willing hands,their town has transformed. Before, the town looked a bit run down, but now, the place looks cleaner and tidier. To keep the projects going, Ben created a Facebook page and website to support their projects.Their Facebook Page“Helping The Community Of Malmesbury” currently sits at 669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. Ben also managed to sort funding through local businesses and associations. The funding has helped them obtain trees, plants, tools, and gardening equipment. When community members plan a clean-up,they can contact them via the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project. Ben is so pleased that 6 years later, the clean up campaign is still in full-swing. He has just been so overwhelmed with the support over the years that he cannot thank the community enough. Their mission will not stop. 24. What did Ben invite Julie to do? A. Mow the lawn. B. Cut the hedge. C. Repair the fence. D. Help the neighbor. 25. What did the community do after seeing their post? A. They cleaned their town. B. They shared more photos. C. They embraced each other. D. They stood by doing nothing. 26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Ways to raise funds. B. Efforts to run the projects. C. Scenes of doing cleaning. D. Feelings of managing the projects. 27. What can we learn from the text? A. No pains, no gains. B. You reap what you sow. C. More haste, less speed. D. Many hands make light work. C We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more. BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens. Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started. Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment. BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee. 28. What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1? A．It guarantees the variety of food. B．It requires day-to-day care. C．It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D．It relies on farmer’s markets. 29. What information does the convenient app offer? A．Real-time weather changes. B．Current condition of the plants. C．Chemical pollutants in the soil. D．Availability of pre-seeded pods. 30. What can be concluded about BMF employees? A．They have a great passion for sports. B．They are devoted to community service. C．They are fond of sharing daily experiences. D．They have a strong environmental awareness. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A．BMF’s major strengths. B．BMF’s general management. C．BMF’s global influence. D．BMF’s technical standards. D A star athlete at the college where I work recently stopped by my office. After committing a few unforced errors during a weekend match, she was torn apart by self-criticism. “I can’t stop beating myself up,” she told me. “I’m at peak fitness, and I practice hard. How is this happening?” Many students I teach, like this athlete, believe that all-nighters in the library and hours on the field should get them exactly where they need to go. When they fall short of what they imagine they should accomplish, they are crushed by self-blame. We talk often about young adults struggling with failure because their parents have protected them from discomfort. But there is something else at play among the most privileged in particular: a false promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work for it. Psychologists have sourced this phenomenon to a misapplication of “mind set” research, which has found that praising children for effort will increase academic performance. But a recent analysis found that while praising effort over ability may benefit high-risk or economically disadvantaged students, it does not necessarily help everyone. The cruel, messy reality is that you can do everything in your power and still fail. Instead of allowing our kids to beat themselves up when things don’t go their way, we should all question a culture that has taught them that feeling anything less than overwhelmed means they’re lazy, and that where they go to college matters more than the kind of person they are. It’s suggested that parents and teachers spend time helping students find purpose, or goals they genuinely love to pursue and that make an impact on the world, which may help them gain greater life satisfaction and become more psychologically mature. The point is not to give our kids a pass on working hard. But we would be wise to remind our kids that life may beat us up unexpectedly sometimes. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest. 32．Which sort of students does the star athlete belong to? A．Those lacking courage to make self-criticism. B．Those tired of working all night in the library. C．Those believing hard work surely pay off. D．Those overprotected by their parents in life. 33．What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A．Praising effort over ability will surely be beneficial to all kids. B．The result of the “mindset” research doesn’t apply to all cases. C．Parents should lay more emphasis on their kids’ academic performance. D．Whether praising kids’ effort over ability does good to kids depends. 34．According to the author, how can parents help the kids overcome barriers in life? A．By choosing where to go to college for them. B．By pushing them to fight against the cruel reality. C．By discouraging them from making efforts to study hard. D．By encouraging them to stick to a worthy cause they truly love. 35．What can be inferred from the passage? A．Students should not expect too much from their study. B．Students with positive attitudes can move on more easily. C．Students should bear all the failures on their own. D．Students are sure to succeed if they try their best. 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。 Going on a solo travel is more than just a holiday; it’s a journey of self-discovery, growth, and transformation.

Despite her tight schedule, Emma’ s firm commitment meant she never missed a day of work. One particular day, though, would prove to be unlike any other. Emma's workday typically began at 3 pm and ended around 10 pm. That day progressed like any other until Emma found herself with just an hour left before her first break. Then a weary-looking mother arrived at the checkout with her son and a grocery cart. The mother appeared tired, with sleepy eyes and untidy hair. Emma greeted her with a warm smile,“Have you had a long day?” The mother responded with a smile, saying, “Yes, it's been a tiring one.This little one requested lasagna(千层面) for lunch, and I found we were out of food.” The woman explained that her five-year-old son, Tristan, was the man of the house, and his younger brother was in hospital, putting an emotional weight on him. Emma couldn't help but empathize, recalling her own experiences as a child with a sick brother. Emma asked Tristan for his name, and as he cheerfully replied, “Tristan”, Emma presented him with a lollipop (棒棒糖). She ran it through the register to ring it up before handing it to the delighted young boy. What Emma hadn't noticed during her initial scan of the woman's items was the growing excitement on Tristan's face as each beep (滴滴声) from the register resounded. Eager and enthusiastic, he asked, “Can I help? Can I help?” Emma’ s heartwarming response was, “Of course!”She lifted Tristan to her workstation, teaching him how to ring up groceries. Unknown to Emma, Tristan's mother took a photo of their interaction, capturing her son's pure joy in a moment frozen in time.
