Part of STEM learning is seeing and doing, and then recording and analyzing the results. But not all online or homeschool programs are set up to accommodate science experiments or other STEM learning activities. Let’s take a look at a few mind-blowing labs that can help bring STEM topics alive for your child’s online school experience.
Weather Laboratories
To make learning about weather accessible and fun, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) created a lot of informative weather activities and virtual labs they recommend for students and educators. In fact, their weather science content for kids features a Weather Lab application that allows middle school students to predict weather patterns, and learn what happens when ocean currents and air masses interact.
Simulations (模拟) for Science and Math
It is a project of the University of Colorado Boulder and one of the richest single databases of online science interactives and virtual labs. Investigate more than 150 physics, chemistry, math, biology, and Earth science topics. Available in dozens of languages, the interactives are searchable by grade level, subject, and accessibility.
Space Exploration Simulations
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) features many STEM learning activities for students in grades K-12. The interactive simulations are also gamified and make learning engaging and fun for your child. The app allows users to explore the universe and unlock stories of trailblazing scientists and their contributions to space exploration and science.
21. Who are the intended readers?
A. Parents. B. Students. C. Teachers. D. Researchers.
22. What makes Simulations for Science and Math different from the other labs?
A. It covers the most subjects. B. It has a translation centre.
C. It offers gamified learning experiences. D. It provides multiple tools for recording.
23. What do all the three labs have in common?
A. They centre on problem solving skills.
B. They facilitate advanced scientific research.
C. They provide virtual scientific exploration.
D. They help students with STEM projects from school.
B
In this fast-paced world, quiet moments are often spent staring at a phone screen. For those who have forgotten how to switch off and reconnect with ourselves, Deborah Alma may have just what the doctor ordered. She is the founder of The Poetry Pharmacy (药房), whose aim is to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. Last year, another Poetry Pharmacy opened its doors inside LUSH on London’s Oxford Street, seeking to bring a little calm to the capital.
Even before she had two successful “practices” under her belt, Deborah was keenly aware of the power of poetry. She noticed how it could bring people a positive change. This inspired her to become the “Emergency Poet” traveling the country in a vintage ambulance to offer poetry prescriptions (处方). The 1950s ambulance, which was bought on eBay, carried 200 poems, each with advice like “take this poem with a cup of tea” or “listen to some birdsong”.
After about a decade of mobile medicine, Deborah parked up her practice for a permanent location in Shropshire. This became the world’s first walk-in-poetry pharmacy, and — unlike the ambulance — it had central heating. From a cozy coffee corner to an inspiring physic garden, the Pharmacy is described as “a peaceful place to rest and dream”. “What happens in the shops is that people who look at pills are often buying things for others. It’s potentially a little theatre, but that act of giving and thinking about someone else is heartwarming.” The Pharmacy also provides a more personalized service. “We ask about people’s reading habits, how they relax, rather than their problems. It should be a pleasure to answer these questions,” Deborah says.
Despite never having done any online marketing, The Poetry Pharmacy has a dedicated following of creative souls, including Mark Constantine, CEO and co-founder of LUSH. We don’t know what the future holds for The Poetry Pharmacy and its founder, but one thing is certain-the next chapter is bound to be a good one!
24. How many poetry pharmacies has Deborah opened?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
25. What can possibly happen in The Poetry Pharmacy?
A. Poetic healing. B. Helping phone addicts.
C. Enjoying theatre performances. D. Discussing poetry writing.
26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The shop needs some marketing. B. The shop has gained acceptance.
C. Deborah will open a new shop soon. D. Deborah has found some co-founders.
27. Which of the following best describes Deborah?
A. Creative but inconsistent. B. Conventional but warm.
C. Innovative and compassionate. D. Sociable and adventurous.
C
When Alexander Fleming returned to his lab in 1928,he found a bacteria culture he had grown was infected by fungus (霉菌), killing any colonies it touched. Rather than simply starting over, Fleming switched his focus to the fungus. He identified the bacteria-killing substance, which he called “penicillin,” and seemingly in a single stroke, created the new field of antibiotics (抗生素).
That’s how most people see innovation: A flash of brilliance and Eureka, a new world is born. The truth, however, is messier. It wasn’t until 1943 that penicillin came into widespread use.
To put Fleming’s discovery in context, consider Ignaz Semmelweis, who pioneered hand washing in maternity wards (产房), significantly reducing childbed fever but receiving scorn instead of fame. That was because in the 1850s, his ideas conflicted with the popular miasma theory, which attributed disease to “bad airs.” After his death in 1865, germ theory was accepted, paving the way for Fleming’s later work.
Fleming was a gifted biologist but a poor communicator. When he published his results in 1929, few took notice. In 1935, Howard Florey and Ernst Chain discovered Fleming’s paper, understood its importance, and developed methods to produce penicillin in quantity. By 1943,with World War IⅡ raging, the War Production Board enlisted 21 companies to mass-produce penicillin, saving countless lives and ushering in the new age of antibiotics. Fleming, Florey and Chain received the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1945.
Penicillin owes much of its success to government support. For many other groundbreaking innovations like the Internet and GPS, their innovators, while carving their own path, are often uncertain of where the opportunity lies until they team up with other visionaries and corporations, who might have the resources to fast-track their ideas. So, look at any significant innovation and the myth of the lone genius and the “eureka moment” breaks down.
28. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?
A. An account of a lab story. B. Redefinition of a traditional view.
C. Correction of a popular misconception. D. An analysis of a scientific phenomenon
29. What is the message conveyed in paragraph 3?
A. Great minds think alike.
B. The early bird catches the worm.
C. Luck’s got your back when it comes to success.
D. Early work is a stepping stone to later breakthroughs.
30. What does the underlined part “ushering in” in the paragraph 4 mean?
A. Delaying. B. Introducing. C. Predicting. D. Transforming.
31. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Great Innovations: Individuals Are True Heroes.
B. From Failure to Success: The Story of Penicillin.
C. The Lone Genius: Fleming’s Discovery of Penicillin.
D. The Long Road to Penicillin: How Innovation Happens.
D
Plastic and cheap clothes are not a glorious legacy (遗产) . But a scientist exploring which items from our technological civilization are most likely to survive for many millions of years as fossils (化石) has reached an ironic and instructive conclusion: Plastic and fast fashion will be our everlasting geological signature.
“Plastic will definitely be a signature ‘techno fossil’ because it is incredibly durable, we are making massive amounts of it, and it gets around the entire globe,” says Sarah Gabbott, a University of Leicester expert on fossils. “So wherever those future civilizations dig, they are going to find plastic.”
Clothes will also make an abrupt entry into humanity’s fossil record. Today, the world’s growing population often wears mass-produced synthetic (合成的) clothing that are rapidly dumped and they are not as easily rotted as cotton and silk.
“We are making them in ridiculous amounts,” says Gabbott. “We stick them into landfills (填埋场), which are like giant mummification tombs. It is already clear that much of modern fashion will end up being truly timeless.”
Fossils are not just objects left behind, but also the traces of life’s activity written into the rocks. Human activities, such as oil drilling and nuclear tests, will leave lasting scars. Humankind has also created many near-indestructible chemicals, such as dioxins and DDT. Given that similar molecules produced by bacteria have been found in rocks that are 1,600 million years old in Western Australia, these chemicals appear to be here to stay. “And there is the graphite (石墨) used in pencils,” says Gabbott. “It is endearing to think that it may be the drawings of children that may survive best of all: a pencil portrait, perhaps, of a family outside a house, with the sun shining and a rainbow arcing across the sky,” she says jokingly.
“The big message here is that the amount of stuff we are now making is eve- watering-it’s off the scale,” says Gabbott. All of the stuff made by humans by 1950 was a small part of all the matter on Earth. But today it outweighs all plants and animals. “This raises serious questions for us all,” she says, “Do you need that? Do you really need to buy more?”
32. What does the author think of the legacy mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. Troubling. B. Short-lived.
C. Technologically weak. D. Environmentally harmless.
33 What can be categorized as techno fossils?
A. Dinosaur bones. B. Cotton clothing. C. Nuclear waste. D. Solid landfills.
34. Why is “children’s drawings” mentioned in paragraph 5?
A. To highlight human creativity. B. To celebrate modern technology.
C. To stress that warmth of life is here to stay. D. To indicate that chemicals could be fossilized.
35. What is Gabbott’s primary concern?
A. Biodiversity loss. B. Geological record accuracy.
C. Technological progress. D. Overproduction of material goods.
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。
Many adults are proud to share their fascinations with what others would label as kids’ toys. Mini Brands mystery packs or other blind boxes have become a phenomenon as collectibles for some adults. ____36____ For others, Legos are on their wishlist encouraged by the brand’s growing number of grown-up sets.
_____37_____ Seeking and sparking child-like joy may be part of the appeal, said behavioral therapist Maddy Ellberger. “When something reminds us of a positive memory, we are likely to engage with it because the association recalls those memories.”
_____38_____ Clothing brands are also cashing in on nostalgia (怀旧情怀)-from Crocs creating a Lizzie McGuire clog to Lululemon’s Disney collection making a full comeback that includes adults. Barbie isn’t just for kids clothes now either, thanks to the recent film and“Barbie-core”fashion trend.
In addition to the trendy appeal all these revivals can also touch on a feeling of connection during a time of increased division. But whether that desire for connection is satisfied depends on if you can translate the excitement into real, in-person connection. _____39_____ But having or wearing the same thing is not the actual steps of forming shared identity,” Ellberger said. “And I feel like that’s some of what gets lost, and it isn’t impossible.”
Ellberger has a great idea for this. “You are into a certain trend, like toys. There’s a good chance you’ll find others who are into the same trend. ____40____ If it was part of everyone’s secret Santa or white elephant — that’s a really cute way of connecting over this,” she said.
A. The craze goes beyond toys.
B. So,what’s with the fascination?
C. It’s a great way to form community.
D. Then give these toys to them as holiday gifts.
E. Social media fuels the trend by creating shared experiences.
F. Even stuffed animals are making their way into adults’ homes.
G. Childhood favorites have instead become relevant to adults again.

When we don’t meet that standard, the joy fades, replaced by feelings of inadequacy.
For me, writing has been the one hobby I’ve regularly returned to,____49____ moments of self-doubt. I’ve taken creative writing classes and seen significant improvement, but the constant____50____ for perfection turns writing from a ____51____ into a chore. I’ve come to realize that this mindset____52____ me of the joy I once found in it.
We need to recognize that it’s ____53____ not to be great at something. Perfection is often____54____, and more often than not, we are our toughest critics. The challenge, then, is finding balance between enjoyment and ____55____. Embrace imperfection, and enjoy the process, even if you’re not “great” at it.

Part of STEM learning is seeing and doing, and then recording and analyzing the results. But not all online or homeschool programs are set up to accommodate science experiments or other STEM learning activities. Let’s take a look at a few mind-blowing labs that can help bring STEM topics alive for your child’s online school experience.
Weather Laboratories
To make learning about weather accessible and fun, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) created a lot of informative weather activities and virtual labs they recommend for students and educators. In fact, their weather science content for kids features a Weather Lab application that allows middle school students to predict weather patterns, and learn what happens when ocean currents and air masses interact.
Simulations (模拟) for Science and Math
It is a project of the University of Colorado Boulder and one of the richest single databases of online science interactives and virtual labs. Investigate more than 150 physics, chemistry, math, biology, and Earth science topics. Available in dozens of languages, the interactives are searchable by grade level, subject, and accessibility.
Space Exploration Simulations
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) features many STEM learning activities for students in grades K-12. The interactive simulations are also gamified and make learning engaging and fun for your child. The app allows users to explore the universe and unlock stories of trailblazing scientists and their contributions to space exploration and science.
21. Who are the intended readers?
A. Parents. B. Students. C. Teachers. D. Researchers.
22 What makes Simulations for Science and Math different from the other labs?
A. It covers the most subjects. B. It has a translation centre.
C. It offers gamified learning experiences. D. It provides multiple tools for recording.
23. What do all the three labs have in common?

In this fast-paced world, quiet moments are often spent staring at a phone screen. For those who have forgotten how to switch off and reconnect with ourselves, Deborah Alma may have just what the doctor ordered. She is the founder of The Poetry Pharmacy (药房), whose aim is to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. Last year, another Poetry Pharmacy opened its doors inside LUSH on London’s Oxford Street, seeking to bring a little calm to the capital.
Even before she had two successful “practices” under her belt, Deborah was keenly aware of the power of poetry. She noticed how it could bring people a positive change. This inspired her to become the “Emergency Poet” traveling the country in a vintage ambulance to offer poetry prescriptions (处方). The 1950s ambulance, which was bought on eBay, carried 200 poems, each with advice like “take this poem with a cup of tea” or “listen to some birdsong”.
After about a decade of mobile medicine, Deborah parked up her practice for a permanent location in Shropshire. This became the world’s first walk-in-poetry pharmacy, and — unlike the ambulance — it had central heating. From a cozy coffee corner to an inspiring physic garden, the Pharmacy is described as “a peaceful place to rest and dream”. “What happens in the shops is that people who look at pills are often buying things for others. It’s potentially a little theatre, but that act of giving and thinking about someone else is heartwarming.” The Pharmacy also provides a more personalized service. “We ask about people’s reading habits, how they relax, rather than their problems. It should be a pleasure to answer these questions,” Deborah says.
Despite never having done any online marketing, The Poetry Pharmacy has a dedicated following of creative souls, including Mark Constantine, CEO and co-founder of LUSH. We don’t know what the future holds for The Poetry Pharmacy and its founder, but one thing is certain-the next chapter is bound to be a good one!
24. How many poetry pharmacies has Deborah opened?
A One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
25. What can possibly happen in The Poetry Pharmacy?
A. Poetic healing. B. Helping phone addicts.
C. Enjoying theatre performances. D. Discussing poetry writing.
26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The shop needs some marketing. B. The shop has gained acceptance.
C. Deborah will open a new shop soon. D. Deborah has found some co-founders.
27. Which of the following best describes Deborah?
A. Creative but inconsistent. B. Conventional but warm.
C. Innovative and compassionate. D. Sociable and adventurous.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. C
【解析】

C
When Alexander Fleming returned to his lab in 1928,he found a bacteria culture he had grown was infected by fungus (霉菌), killing any colonies it touched. Rather than simply starting over, Fleming switched his focus to the fungus. He identified the bacteria-killing substance, which he called “penicillin,” and seemingly in a single stroke, created the new field of antibiotics (抗生素).
That’s how most people see innovation: A flash of brilliance and Eureka, a new world is born. The truth, however, is messier. It wasn’t until 1943 that penicillin came into widespread use.
To put Fleming’s discovery in context, consider Ignaz Semmelweis, who pioneered hand washing in maternity wards (产房), significantly reducing childbed fever but receiving scorn instead of fame. That was because in the 1850s, his ideas conflicted with the popular miasma theory, which attributed disease to “bad airs.” After his death in 1865, germ theory was accepted, paving the way for Fleming’s later work.
Fleming was a gifted biologist but a poor communicator. When he published his results in 1929, few took notice. In 1935, Howard Florey and Ernst Chain discovered Fleming’s paper, understood its importance, and developed methods to produce penicillin in quantity. By 1943,with World War IⅡ raging, the War Production Board enlisted 21 companies to mass-produce penicillin, saving countless lives and ushering in the new age of antibiotics. Fleming, Florey and Chain received the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1945.
Penicillin owes much of its success to government support. For many other groundbreaking innovations like the Internet and GPS, their innovators, while carving their own path, are often uncertain of where the opportunity lies until they team up with other visionaries and corporations, who might have the resources to fast-track their ideas. So, look at any significant innovation and the myth of the lone genius and the “eureka moment” breaks down.
28. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?
A. An account of a lab story. B. Redefinition of a traditional view.
C. Correction of a popular misconception. D. An analysis of a scientific phenomenon
29. What is the message conveyed in paragraph 3?
A. Great minds think alike.
B. The early bird catches the worm.
C. Luck’s got your back when it comes to success.
D. Early work is a stepping stone to later breakthroughs.
30. What does the underlined part “ushering in” in the paragraph 4 mean?
A. Delaying. B. Introducing. C. Predicting. D. Transforming.
31. Which of the following can be the best title?
A. Great Innovations: Individuals Are True Heroes.
B. From Failure to Success: The Story of Penicillin.
C. The Lone Genius: Fleming’s Discovery of Penicillin.
D. The Long Road to Penicillin: How Innovation Happens.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了青霉素的发现和发展历程,通过这一实例揭示了创新是一个复杂且漫长的过程,并非是人们通常认为的天才的灵光一闪。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段讲述弗莱明发现青霉素的过程。根据第二段 “That's how most people see innovation: A flash of brilliance and Eureka!, a new world is born. The truth, however, is messier.”(这就是大多数人对创新的看法:灵光一闪,“尤里卡”(我发现了),一个新世界诞生了。然而,事实却更为复杂)”可知,前两段主要是纠正人们对创新的普遍误解,即认为创新是一蹴而就的这种错误观念。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段 “That was because in the 1850s,his ideas conflicted with the popular miasma theory,which attributed disease to “bad airs.”After his death in 1865,germ theory was accepted,paving the way for Fleming's later work.(这是因为在19世纪50年代,他的观点与流行的瘴气理论相冲突,后者将疾病归因于“恶劣的空气”。1865年他去世后,细菌理论被接受,为弗莱明后来的工作铺平了道路)”可推知,早期塞麦尔维斯的工作为后来弗莱明的突破奠定了基础,即早期工作是后来突破的垫脚石。故选D。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第四段 “By 1943, with World War II raging, the War Production Board enlisted 21 companies to mass - produce penicillin, saving countless lives(到 1943 年,第二次世界大战激烈进行,战争生产委员会招募了 21 家公司大规模生产青霉素,拯救了无数生命)”,可知,大规模生产抗生素,使得抗生素进入了新时代。所以“ushering in” 意思是 “引入,开启”,与选项 B(Introducing,引入)意思相符,故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了青霉素从弗莱明的发现,到经过一系列的发展,包括前人工作的铺垫、其他人的进一步研究以及政府的支持等,最终才得以广泛应用,开启了抗生素新时代,强调了创新是一个漫长的过程。选项 D“通往青霉素的漫长道路:创新是如何发生的”为短文的最佳标题,故选D。
D
Plastic and cheap clothes are not a glorious legacy (遗产) . But a scientist exploring which items from our technological civilization are most likely to survive for many millions of years as fossils (化石) has reached an ironic and instructive conclusion: Plastic and fast fashion will be our everlasting geological signature.
“Plastic will definitely be a signature ‘techno fossil’, because it is incredibly durable, we are making massive amounts of it, and it gets around the entire globe,” says Sarah Gabbott, a University of Leicester expert on fossils. “So wherever those future civilizations dig, they are going to find plastic.”
Clothes will also make an abrupt entry into humanity’s fossil record. Today, the world’s growing population often wears mass-produced synthetic (合成的) clothing that are rapidly dumped and they are not as easily rotted as cotton and silk.
“We are making them in ridiculous amounts,” says Gabbott. “We stick them into landfills (填埋场), which are like giant mummification tombs. It is already clear that much of modern fashion will end up being truly timeless.”
Fossils are not just objects left behind, but also the traces of life’s activity written into the rocks. Human activities, such as oil drilling and nuclear tests, will leave lasting scars. Humankind has also created many near-indestructible chemicals, such as dioxins and DDT. Given that similar molecules produced by bacteria have been found in rocks that are 1,600 million years old in Western Australia, these chemicals appear to be here to stay. “And there is the graphite (石墨) used in pencils,” says Gabbott. “It is endearing to think that it may be the drawings of children that may survive best of all: a pencil portrait, perhaps, of a family outside a house, with the sun shining and a rainbow arcing across the sky,” she says jokingly.
“The big message here is that the amount of stuff we are now making is eve- watering-it’s off the scale,” says Gabbott. All of the stuff made by humans by 1950 was a small part of all the matter on Earth. But today it outweighs all plants and animals. “This raises serious questions for us all,” she says, “Do you need that? Do you really need to buy more?”
32. What does the author think of the legacy mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. Troubling. B. Short-lived.
C. Technologically weak. D. Environmentally harmless.
33. What can be categorized as techno fossils?
A. Dinosaur bones. B. Cotton clothing. C. Nuclear waste. D. Solid landfills.
34. Why is “children’s drawings” mentioned in paragraph 5?
A. To highlight human creativity. B. To celebrate modern technology.
C. To stress that warmth of life is here to stay. D. To indicate that chemicals could be fossilized.
35. What is Gabbott’s primary concern?
A. Biodiversity loss. B. Geological record accuracy.
C. Technological progress. D. Overproduction of material goods.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本篇文章主要介绍了科学家研究发现塑料、快时尚衣物等人类制造的物品很可能成为数百万年后的化石,这引发了对物质过度生产的思考。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Plastic and cheap clothes are not a glorious legacy (遗产) . But a scientist exploring which items from our technological civilization are most likely to survive for many millions of years as fossils (化石) has reached an ironic and instructive conclusion: Plastic and fast fashion will be our everlasting geological signature.(塑料和廉价衣服并不是光荣的遗产。但是,一位科学家在探索我们的技术文明中哪些东西最有可能以化石的形式存在数百万年之后,得出了一个具有讽刺意味但又具有启发性的结论:塑料和快时尚将是我们永恒的地质标志)”可知,作者对其的看法是令人担忧的。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Plastic will definitely be a signature ‘techno fossil’, because it is incredibly durable, we are making massive amounts of it, and it gets around the entire globe,” says Sarah Gabbott, a University of Leicester expert on fossils.(塑料肯定会成为标志性的‘科技化石’,因为它非常耐用,我们正在制造大量的塑料,它们遍布全球,”莱斯特大学的化石专家萨拉·加博特说)”根据第五段“Human activities, such as oil drilling and nuclear tests, will leave lasting scars. Humankind has also created many near-indestructible chemicals, such as dioxins and DDT.(人类活动,如石油钻探和核试验,将留下持久的伤痕。人类还创造了许多几乎坚不可摧的化学品,如二恶英和DDT)”可知,核废料可以被归类为技术化石。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Given that similar molecules produced by bacteria have been found in rocks that are 1,600 million years old in Western Australia, these chemicals appear to be here to stay.(考虑到在西澳大利亚州16亿年前的岩石中发现了由细菌产生的类似分子,这些化学物质似乎会留在这里)”可知,第5段提到了“儿童绘画”是为了表明化学物质可以变成化石。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段““The big message here is that the amount of stuff we are now making is eve- watering-it’s off the scale,” says Gabbott. All of the stuff made by humans by 1950 was a small part of all the matter on Earth. But today it outweighs all plants and animals. “This raises serious questions for us all,” she says, “Do you need that? Do you really need to buy more?”(“这里的重要信息是,我们现在制造的东西的数量已经超出了规模,”Gabbott说。到1950年,人类制造的所有东西只是地球上所有物质的一小部分。但今天它超过了所有的植物和动物。“这给我们所有人提出了严重的问题,”她说,“你需要这个吗?你真的需要买更多吗?”)”可知,Gabbott最关心的是物质产品生产过剩。故选D。
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。
Many adults are proud to share their fascinations with what others would label as kids’ toys. Mini Brands mystery packs or other blind boxes have become a phenomenon as collectibles for some adults. ____36____ For others Legos are on their wishlist encouraged by the brand’s growing number of grown-up sets.
_____37_____ Seeking and sparking child-like joy may be part of the appeal, said behavioral therapist Maddy Ellberger. “When something reminds us of a positive memory, we are likely to engage with it because the association recalls those memories.”
_____38_____ Clothing brands are also cashing in on nostalgia (怀旧情怀)-from Crocs creating a Lizzie McGuire clog to Lululemon’s Disney collection making a full comeback that includes adults. Barbie isn’t just for kids clothes now either, thanks to the recent film and“Barbie-core”fashion trend.
In addition to the trendy appeal, all these revivals can also touch on a feeling of connection during a time of increased division. But whether that desire for connection is satisfied depends on if you can translate the excitement into real, in-person connection. _____39_____ But having or wearing the same thing is not the actual steps of forming shared identity,” Ellberger said. “And I feel like that’s some of what gets lost, and it isn’t impossible.”
Ellberger has a great idea for this. “You are into a certain trend, like toys. There’s a good chance you’ll find others who are into the same trend. ____40____ If it was part of everyone’s secret Santa or white elephant — that’s a really cute way of connecting over this,” she said.
A. The craze goes beyond toys.
B. So,what’s with the fascination?
C. It’s a great way to form community.
D. Then give these toys to them as holiday gifts.
E. Social media fuels the trend by creating shared experiences.
F. Even stuffed animals are making their way into adults’ homes.
G. Childhood favorites have instead become relevant to adults again.
【答案】36. F 37. B 38. A 39. C 40. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了成年人对童年玩具和怀旧物品的喜爱现象及其背后的心理原因。
【36题详解】
由上文“Mini Brands mystery packs or other blind boxes have become a phenomenon as collectibles for some adults. (对于一些成年人来说,迷你品牌神秘包或其他盲盒已经成为一种收藏品现象。)”可知,上文提到了一些成年人喜欢收集迷你品牌神秘包或其他盲盒,本空应继续举例说明成年人对童年物品的喜爱,F选项“Even stuffed animals are making their way into adults’ homes. (甚至毛绒玩具也开始进入成年人的家中。)”能承接上文,符合语境。故选F。

Food plays a significant role in classic Chinese novels, with one of the most famous examples being Cao Xueqin’s Dream of the Red Chamber. In this 18th-century novel, food is a key part of the story, revealing details about characters ___56___ advancing the plot. The book’s most famous dish, a ___57___ (prepare) of eggplant called qiexiang (茄鲞), is a rich dish that requires____58____ (day) to prepare, involving steaming eggplant ten times in soup made from old hens.

The novel provides ample inspiration to today’s cooks. Food bloggers go viral with attempts ___59___ (recreate) the book’s most famous dishes. “Red Chamber Banquets” pop up in theme restaurants across China, and indeed worldwide, with the dishes plated in Michelin style.
While most foods ___60___ (serve) in the novel are made with high skill, they are made with only a few simple seasonal ingredients. In China’s culinary culture, humble ingredients ___61___ (prize) because they are in season. A relative ___62___ brags (吹嘘) about enjoying food out of season is later revealed to have a dangerously violent temper. A “bad apple,” one might say.
Like all great literature, the enduring popularity of Dream of the Red Chamber comes from ____63____(it) many layers of meaning. Readers can appreciate it more than ____64____ an engaging story. The same can also be said about the food. When we read about it, we can admire the cooking art, mine _____65_____ text for historical clues, or seek double meanings in every “bite”.

57. preparation
58. days 59. to recreate
60. served 61. are prized
62. who##that
63. its 64. as
65. the
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过分析《红楼梦》中饮食描写的作用,如刻画人物、推动情节、反映文化,说明其在文学和烹饪领域的持久影响力。
【56题详解】
考查并列连词。句意:在这部18世纪的小说中,食物是故事的关键部分,揭示了人物的细节并推进了情节。分析句子结构可知,两个动名词短语“revealing details about characters”和“advancing the plot”为并列关系,表示“既揭示人物细节,又推动情节发展”,需用并列连词 and 连接。故填and。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意:这本书中提到的最著名的菜肴是名为“茄鲞”的茄子料理,这是一道用料丰富的菜肴,需要数天时间才能做好,制作过程包括将茄子多次放入由老母鸡熬制的汤中蒸煮。冠词a后需接名词。动词“prepare(准备)”的名词形式为“preparation(准备)”。故填preparation。
【58题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:这本书中提到的最著名的菜肴是名为“茄鲞”的茄子料理,这是一道用料丰富的菜肴,需要数天时间才能做好,制作过程包括将茄子多次放入由老母鸡熬制的汤中蒸煮。这里表达“需要数天时间准备”,因此,应是用day 的复数形式“days”,表泛指多日。故填days。
【59题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:美食博主们试图重现这本书中最著名的菜肴,这在网上疯传。此处的“attempt”为名词,意为“企图;试图;尝试”,其后接动词不定式 to do,作其后置定语,表示“尝试做某事的企图”。故填to recreate。
【60题详解】
考查过去分词作后置定语。句意:小说中所呈现的大多数食物都是经过高超技艺烹制而成的,但它们所用的原料却只有几种简单的应季食材。“___5___(serve) in the novel”为之前名词“foods”的后置定语,动词“serve”与其之间为被动关系,需用过去分词形式。故填served。
【61题详解】
考查时态和被动。句意:在中国的烹饪文化中,简单的食材因为是时令食材而受到重视。所填动词为句子的谓语动词,结合语境,这里描述一般事实,用一般现在时,且主语“humble ingredients(普通食材)”与动词“prize(珍视)”为被动关系,需用一般现在时被动语态:are done。主谓一致,故填are prized。
【62题详解】
考查定语从句引导词。句意:一个吹嘘自己喜欢吃反季节食物的亲戚后来被发现有危险的暴戾脾气。“___7__ brags about enjoying food out of season”为之前“A relative”的定语从句,从句缺少主语且指人,需用关系代词 who或that引导。故填who/that。
【63题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意:像所有伟大的文学作品一样,《红楼梦》之所以经久不衰,源于它的多层含义。所填应是形容词性物主代词,作定语,修饰名词“many layers of meaning(多层含义)”。故填its。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:读者可以欣赏它,而不仅仅是作为一个引人入胜的故事。分析语境可知,“an engaging story(一个有趣的故事)”是《红楼梦》的身份特征,用介词“as” 表“作为”这个含义,表达“不仅仅是作为一个有趣的故事”。故填as。
【65题详解】
考查定冠词。句意:当我们阅读相关内容时,我们可以领略烹饪艺术的魅力,从文中寻找历史线索,或者在每一个“细节”中探寻其深层含义。分析语境可知,“text”特指前文提到的《红楼梦》文本,需用定冠词 “the”表特指。故填the。

The crowd roared as I took off from the starting line in The Big Race. Through the cheers, I heard Mom shouting, “Run, Sammy, run!” I knew without looking that she was smiling from ear to ear and clapping her hands for me.
I kept my eyes straight ahead running as fast as I could. “Run, run, run,” I chanted to myself in my mind as I passed my friend Justin. I saw Justin’s red face out of the corner of my eye and wondered if my own face was that red too?
“Run, run, run.” I was on fire, passing Sarah, leaving her in my dust.
The coach was waiting for me at the finish line.holding the medal,for the fastest runner in kindergarten. I would wear that blue and white ribbon around my neck when we go out for ice cream to celebrate and then hang it in my room. Last night I took the collection of caps off the hook on my wall leaving it ready for my shiny new medal .I couldn’t wait to see it every day when I woke up.
Dad was there in the crowd also and would pick me up and put me on his shoulders to carry around. “My son!” He would tell the other fathers, “My son won the race!”
I was going to win! Faster than Sarah, I came up behind Mikey, giving my legs that extra burst of energy to pass him by. The winner, Sammy! All that running in the park was worth it!
Just as I heard the roar of the crowd welcoming me to the finish line,I saw a blur out of the corner of my eye.What?There was Justin with his tomato cheeks running as fast as humanly possible,huffing and puffing like he was going to blow the house down.And then he was ir front of me.I was behind tomato face Justin.Crossing the finish line,I heard the voice over the loudspeaker boom,“Congratulations to the winner,Justin!"

【答案】范文
I stood there frozen as Justin was handed his medal. My chest tightened, and tears blurred my vision. Mom rushed over, wrapping her arms around me. “You did an amazing job, Sammy!” she whispered. Justin glanced at me, his tomato cheeks now softened into a shy smile. “You were so fast,” he said, offering a high-five. Hesitating, I slapped his hand weakly. The coach approached, placing a hand on my shoulder. “Second place is still a victory,” he said. I stared at the empty hook on my wall, imagining the medal that wouldn’t hang there. Dad stood silently nearby, his eyes filled with pride mixed with concern.
Suddenly, strong hands lifted me onto Dad’s shoulders. “Look around, champ,” he said. The crowd was cheering wildly — not just for Justin, but for every runner. “Winning isn’t about medals,” Dad continued. “It’s about pushing your limits.” From that height, I saw Sarah hugging her mom and Mikey laughing with friends. Justin waved at me, his medal glinting. I took a deep breath and clapped along with the crowd. Later, as we ate ice cream, Mom said, “Next year, that hook will be ready again.” I nodded, realizing the race had taught me something brighter than a ribbon.
