Marking his "golden birthday", Aaron shared a joyful photoshoot with a bold balloon display reading "Disabled AF". "I've officially lived to see 24 more birthdays than I was expected to see!" Aaron shared. adding, "If I had to sum up today in one word, it would be thankful." He expressed gratitude (感恩) for his family, friends, business team, and even his trusty wheelchair-joking that it "kind of carries this whole operation." He continued "Now, I'm off to celebrate with one of my favorite foods, lobster bisque soup. And if yot happen to find a margarita (a strong drink) on my wheelchair tray... no you didn't." Beyond his enthusiasm (热情), Aaron is also a businessman making a difference. He founded Zipped Brands, a company that changes stylish name-brand shoes by adding zippers, making them easier to wear for people of all abilities "Because of my disability and bent toes, wearing shoes-especially ones I loved-was nearly impossible," Aaron shared. "I accepted that stylish shoes weren't meant for me." Then came a breakthrough What if I could add zippers to my favorite shoe brands? That simple yet powerful idea sparked a business ensuring that everyone, normal or disabled, has access to (可使用) fashionable footwear.

Resilience overcomes life's challenges D. Creativity comes from personal fortune C Debra Dolan has mailed postcards to herself for over 40 years, viewing them as snapshots (快照) not only of the time and place but also of who she was at that moment. She also enjoys sending postcards to friends and exchanging notes with her newspaper carrier. "I have learned more about myself from those aret cards," Dolan said. "It is such a personal experience. Reading them back-all the joys and challenges of my toh bea life-brings me such pleasure." 高一英语试卷 第4页,共10页 While some people like Dolan still enjoy writing on postcards, letter-writing seems to be becoming a lost art. Letter mail per address (letters, postcards, cards, etc.). has fallen from an average of 246 pieces of letter mail per Canadian household in 2014 to 124 pieces of letter mail per household in 2023. This mirrors global postal services struggling against Internet-based tools. Meanwhile, handwriting teaching in Canadian schools has been given less attention, leaving some youths unable to sign their names That's something Elena Woo, 41, in Toronto, is hoping to change. Woo is the producer and editor of Young W, an online shop that encourages what she calls an analogue (模 拟 的) lifestyle, including letter-writing, art and other beautiful things in life. She is determined to promote letter-writing besides digital communication. "Letters offer a choice beyond screens," she argues, stressing that compared to quick messages, handwritten words hold more emotional weight and bring people closer. "The medium is the message,"Woo adds, pointing out how letter-writing benefits both the sender and recipient (收件人) through thoughtful self-expression. As technology advances, writing by hand holds special value-a bridge between past and present, and an effective balance to digital exchanges. Whether through postcards or holiday notes, these items carry more personal meaning no digital technology can match. There's nothing better than opening a mailbox to find a letter waiting. Like Debra Dolan's 40-year postcard collection, this practice creates good memories that stand the test of time 28. What does Debra Dolan mainly consider her postcards as? A. A recollection of her personal life B. A regular activity for relaxation C. A method for contacting friends. D. A form of her creative expression. 29. What change is happening in Canadian society? A. Growing loneliness in the digital age. B. A sharp fall in handwritten communication C. Tough competition between postal services D. A rising need for traditional writing materials 30. Why does Elena Woo support letter-writing? A. It inspires a slow lifestyle B. It encourages an artistic interest C. It creates beautiful memories D. It improves emotional connections 31. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph? A. Appreciating the joy of gift-giving B. Advancing digital communicating C. Treasuring handwritten messages. D. Building more personal mailboxes D New population of polar bears found Researchers have identified a previously unknown population of polar bears in southeast Greenland. The area is seemingly not suitable for polar bears because it lacks sea ice, which the animals typically depend on to hunt. Scientists say the discovery of this population offers a deep understanding of how polar bears might be able to adapt as the planet gets warm and ice melts (融化) 高一英语试卷 第5页,共10页 Most polar bears hunt by walking on floating (漂浮) platforms of sea ice, which is made up of frozen seawater. However, because the Earth's atmosphere is heating up, sea ice in the Arctic is melting. About one third of the Arctic's winter sea ice has disappeared in the past 20 years. Polar bears are currently considered at risk of extinction, and previous studies have warned they could disappear if the ice continues to melt. This newly found population (totaling about 3oo polar bears) was thought to be part of a large group tha lived on Greenland's cast coast. However, researchers looked at data tracking the bears' movements over 36 years and found that populations in the northeast and southeast remained physically separate. They also tested the bears' genes (基因) and confirmed that the two populations were different. The polar bears in southeast Greenland live near glaciers(冰 /ll), which are made up of freshwater. For most of the year, sea ice is not present where these bears live. Instead, scientists believe this population of polar bears hunts on chunks of glacial ice that break off and float into the sea. Researchers say this suggests that as sea ice disappears, other polar bears could learn to hunt using glacial ice Researchers warned, however, that most polar bears don't live in areas where glacial ice can be found Moreover, glaciers, including the ones in Greenland, are melting as well. Still, one research said the study gives hope that "polar bears might be able to hang on in an ice-free Arctic". 32. What is the typical condition for polar bears' survival? B. Seawater. C. Freshwater A. Cold weather. D. Seaice. 33. What have the previous studies stressed? A. The sea ice in the Arctic continues to melt B. Polar bears might get close to extinction. C. Many species of polar bears have died out D. Global warming is becoming more serious 34. What do we know about newly-found polar bears in southeast Greenland? A. They often hunt with those in the northeast B. They have the same gene as northeast species C. They can use glacial ice as hunting platforms D. They have adapted to living in the freshwater 35. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Make protests. B. Offer suggestions. C. Show concern D. Express hopefulness 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,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选 项中有两项为多余选项。 Low-carbon living is about fighting climate change by saving resources and reducing emissions (排放) of greenhouse gases.

However, when her friends gathered to discuss a math problem with her, Jessica offered the wrong answer. Hearing her answer, one of her friends showed an obviously concerned look.
