Roald Dahl(1916-199o) was a beloved British children's author whose imaginative tales
and playful language redefined childhood literature. Born in Cardiff to Norwegian parents.
Dahl discovered his passion for storytelling at a young age.
His unique life experiences.
including his time at boarding schools, inspired the vivid stories he would later create.
After working for Shell Petroleum, Dahl turned to writing and published his first
children's book, The Grenlins(1943), which was inspired by folk tales and commissioned(委托)
by Walt Disney. However, it was his later works that truly established his reputation. Books
like James and the Giant Peach and The BFG combined fantasy with dark humor, featuring
brave children overcoming tough problems.
One of Dahl's most popular works is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory(1964). This
timeless story explores themes of greed and morality through the eyes of Charlie Bucket, a
poor but kind-hearted boy who wins a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka's magical chocolate
factory. Inside the factory, Charlie meets other children who represent different negative
qualities. In contrast, Charlie's modesty and kindness make him the perfect heir(继承人) to
Wonka's factory. The book is filled with fantastical elements, such as eatable gardens and
nut-sorting sauirrels, showcasing Dahl's limitless imagination.
Dahl's writing process was as quirky as his stories. In the 196os, he transformed an old
truck into a writing space, parking it in his garden in Great Missenden, Oxfordshire. There.
he crafted tales of underdogs winning over greed and unfairness, such as in Danny the
Champion of the World, where a father and son outsmart a wealthy landowner.
Beyond children'sbooks, Dahl wrote screenplays, including Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
and the James Bond film You Only Live Twice, His adult short stories were also highly praised.
Despite personal struggles, his work radiated humor and hope. In a poll commissioned by Canon
UK, Dahl was voted "Britain's greatest storyteller", outshining even Dickens and J. K. Rowling.

Some people are no longer just brushing their teeth and turning off the lights before they
go to sleep. Instead, they're wearing red-light glasses, tracking their sleep with apps, and
taking various supplements(补充剂)-all so they can sleep better.
This trend, called"sleepmaxxing", is popular online, with videos showing off people's
long, detailed bedtime routines. Some follow simple sleep tips, like keeping a regular bedtime
or avoiding screens before bed. Others take things further by eating certain foods, using
weighted blankets, and even taping their mouths closed to improve their sleep.
Experts say it's good that more people are focusing on improving their sleep, as it shows
they understand how important rest is for their health. But do all these extra steps actually help?
Some sleepmaxxing habits are supported by science. Both sleepmaxxers and experts agree
that a cool, dark and quiet room helps with sleep. Avoiding blue light from screens before bed
can also help since it affects melatonin, the sleep hormone(激素). And keeping a regular sleep
schedule makes falling asleep easier.
Other tricks, like sleep apps and weighted blankets, may help some people but don't
work for everyone. Similarly, some studies show red light exposure before sleep helps, while
others suggest it could keep the brain stimulated.
And some trends could even be dangerous. Some sleepmaxxers tape their mouths shut to
prevent mouth breathing, believing it will reduce snoring(打瓣) and dry mouth. However,
experts warn this can be risky, especially for those with sleep apnea, a condition that causes
breathing to stop and start during sleep. That's because there is evidence that sleep apnea
symptoms, such as snoring, get worse in about a third of people who tape their mouths.
While getting good sleep is important, experts say trying too hard can actually make
things worse. Some people become so stressed about sleep that it affects their health-a
condition known as orthosomnia. Remember, sleep should be restful, not stressful!
28. What is"sleepmaxxing”?
A. A craze for improving sleep.
B. A new type of exercise.
C. A kind of sleep disorder.
D. A medical treatment.
29. Which statement will the author probably agree with?
A. All sleepmaxxing habits are supported by science.
B. Sleep apps and weighted blankets work for everyone.
C. A warm room is beneficial for sleep according to sleepmaxxers.
D. Red light exposure before sleep has inconsistent effects in studies

A new study warns that extreme ternperatures, mainly heat, could cause up to 2. 3 million
deaths in Europe by 21oo if nations fail to reduce carbon emissions(碳排放) and adapt to
hotter climates. While cold weather currently causes more deaths in Europe, researchers from
the London School of Hygiene &. Tropical Medicine predict heat-related deaths will rise sharply as
global warming speeds up.
Using climate models and data from 854 cities, the study finds that as it warms, cold-related
deaths decline slowly, but heat deaths rise rapidly. Southern Europe-including Italy, Spair
and Greece-faces the highest risks. In contrast, Scandinavia and the UK may see fewer
temperature-related deaths due to milder winters. However, even with strong emission cuts
and improved adaptation efforts, overall temperature-related deaths will still increase as the
planet warms.
The Mediterranean region, described as a "climate hotspot",1s warming faster than other
areas. Malta, for example, could see heat deaths rise by 269 per 1oo, ooo people by 2100
while Ireland's rate might drop slightly. Wealthier Western European countries are in a better
situation to adapt than Eastern Europe.
Recent heatwaves have already caused thousands of deaths in Europe, such as the 2003
event that killed around 70, ooo. Major southern cities like Barcelona, Rome and Naples could
face hundreds of thousands of additional deaths this century. Without urgent action, the study
estimates over 5. 8 million heat-related deaths linked to climate change, though colder regions
might see 3. 5 million fewer cold-related deaths.
Experts emphasize the need for adaptation strategies, such as air conditioning, green
spaces and cooling centers, especially in aging populations and older cities with limited facilities.
Southern Europe's combination of extreme heat, older housing and low air conditioning use
makes it highly endangered.
“Temperatures in cities like Rome already reach dangerous levels," says Dr. Courtney
Howard, a climate health expert. "This poses severe risks for older adults and those without
cooling options." The study highlights the urgent need for global emission reductions and
local climate planning to protect communties from rising heat threats.
32. What can be learned about the changes in temperature-related deaths in Europe?
A. Both tvpes of deaths increase egually
B. Cold deaths will grow considerably by 21oo.
C. Cold-related deaths disappear completely.
D. Heat deaths rise faster than the decline in cold deaths
33. What makes Eastern Europe less adaptable than Western Europe to rising heat?
A. Warmer climate.
B. Limited financial resources.
C. Aging populations.
D. Relaxed emission policies.
34. What does the reference to the 2oo3 heatwave illustrate?
A. Benefits of green spaces.
B. Success of cooling centers.
C. Deadly impact of extreme heat
D. Historic decrease in cold deaths

full, the world becomes a source of endlessjoy and blessings. 36.
Define your version(版本) of abundance.
Everyone's idea of abundance is different. Some find satisfaction in enjoying hobbies o

end up following someone else's dream and feeling unsatisfied. Take time to reflect on what
abundance means to you and recognize that you may already have more than you think.

an abundant mind involves reoognizing and appreciating the good in your life right now. 38.

Find lessons from disappointments.
Setting high standards can lead to disappointment when you fall short. 39 , with each
one presenting an opportunity for learning. The most valuable achievements take time and
effort. Instead of viewing challenges as roadblocks, see them as stepping stones to growth.

As a sailor working on big ships, I often spent months away at sea. When my ship finally
reached Legazpi City, I decided to watch a newly released movie at a local cinema with my
friend, Jake. After months of sailing through rough waters, we were both ready to relax.
Before going to the cinema, we exchanged some money for local currency(货币). With
cash in hand, we walked through the busy streets. The colorful local handicrafts(手工艺品)
in store windows attracted us. We couldn't help stopping by different stores to shop. After
we finished shopping, we headed straight to the cinema.
The movie was great. As we left the cinema, we were so excited that we talked nonstop
about the exciting plot, cool special effects and great acting. We were so absorbed in chatting
that we didn't realize we'd walked onto strange streets. We kept chatting as we walked, and
suddenly we had no idea where we were.
It got dark. The winding roads n Legazpi confused us, and we couldn't remember how to
return to our hotel. As we worriedly argued about which way to take, cars drove by, and the
noise from passers-by made us even more confused.
Just then, Ben, a friendly taxi driver, noticed us. He pulled up next to us and asked.
"You guys seem lost. Need a ride?" We were relieved and said yes right away, telling him the
name of our hotel.
On the way, we talked with Ben. He told us interesting stories about the city, and we
shared our experiences at sea. When we arrived at the hotel, we reached for our wallets to pay
him. But we realized we had no local money left. We looked at each other, feeling awkward.
We started searching through our bags, hoping to find something valuable. Ben just smiled
and said,"Don't worry about it. Consider it a welcome gift to Legazpi."We were very
thankful and asked for his contact information, promising to pay him back.
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。
The next day, we managed to exchange some money at a local bank
In no time, Ben dropped us off at the boarding area.

parents believe learning beyond textbooks is very necessary, and 67 percent agree that taking training classes
after school is better for a child's learning path. The survey also found that 70 percent of parents worry
about campus safety. About 83 percent of Chinese parents are worried that their children will become
