Over the years,Toulla experimented with different materials.She started with oil paints, valuing their flexibility:"Mistakes can be covered easily,letting me add layers of color."Later, she explored watercolors but broke traditional rules by layering them boldly to create bright,striking effects. Growing up in a family uninterested in art,Toulla found inspiration in classic artists like Canaletto and Vermeer.Studying their techniques taught her precision and storytelling through details.Now living in the countryside,nature fuels her creativity.She paints landscapes,farm animals,and quiet moments of rural life.Travel also inspires her;she seeks peaceful places to observe daily scenes others might overlook. For Toulla,art is about revealing untold stories."I want viewers to wonder:What are the people in this painting feeling?What happened before this moment?"She avoids following popular styles,focusing instead on capturing the true spirit of her subjects.Through her unique perspective,ordinary moments-a farmer feeding chickens,children playing by a river-become extraordinary windows into human experiences. 24.What marked the beginning of Toulla's serious art journey? A.The oil painting set from her parents. B.The fish-and-chip shop paper she used. C.Her discovery of watercolor techniques.D.Her primary school classmates'requests. 25.How does Toulla use watercolors differently from traditional methods? A.She avoids layering colors. B.She mixes them with oil paints. C.She focuses on correcting mistakes. D.She applies multiple layers for vivid effects 26.What inspires Toulla's current artworks? A.Her family's advice on painting styles. B.Quiet rural scenes and travel experiences. C.Some famous global modern art exhibitions. D.Her busy city life and modal fashion trends. 27.What is the main purpose of Toulla's artworks? A.To promote traditional art forms. B.To showcase her family's influence. C.To arouse reflection on human stories. D.To teach painting techniques to students. C Global sea levels experienced an unexpected acceleration in 2024,primarily driven by thermal (expansion-the phenomenon of seawater expanding as it absorbs heat.NASA data revealed 英语试题第4页（共10页） an annual rise of 0.23 inches,surpassing the predicted 0.17 inches."While natural fluctuations exist,the long-term trend is clear:rising speeds are increasing,"stated NASA researcher Josh Willis. Historically,melting ice sheets contributed two-thirds of sea level rise,with thermal expansion accounting for the remaining third.However,2024 saw a role reversal():thermal expansion became responsible for two-thirds of the increase.Scientists attribute this shift to record-breaking global temperatures,which pushed ocean heat content and sea surface heights to 30-year highs. Satellite observations since 1993 show the annual rise rate has more than doubled,resulting in a 4-inch global increase over three decades.Continuous satellite monitoring,from the TOPEX/ Poseidon mission (1992)to the recently launched Sentinel-6(2020),ensures data accuracy.The upcoming Sentinel-6B satellite will extend this critical record into the 2030s. Thermal expansion occurs as absorbed heat enters ocean layers.Typically,seawater forms stable layer based on temperature and density.While surface heat transfers slowly to deeper waters, vertical mixing in high-wind zones like the Southem Ocean disrupts )this pattern.Climate phenomena such as El Nino-characterized by eastward shifts of warm Pacific waters-can also force heat downward,accelerating thermal expansion. 28.What was the main contributor to sea level rise in 2024? A.Accelerated ice sheet melting. B.Increasing rainfall over oceans. C.Changes in ocean current directions. D.Heat-induced expansion of seawater. 29.What do the satellite records indicate about sea level changes? A.Recent slowing of annual rise. B.Over 30 years of observations. C.Data collection began in 2020. D.Complete reliance on European satellite systems. 30.The term "vertical mixing"in Paragraph 4 refers to A.heat exchange between ocean depths and surface B.the layered temperature distribution in deep oceans C.horizontal()movement of warm surface waters D.rapid melting of polar ice caps due to temperature and density 31.What is the major purpose of the article? A.To warn about terrible climate tipping points. B.To compare satellite measurement technologies. C.To analyze causes and patterns of rising sea levels D.To promote international cooperation in ocean research. D For over seven decades,fluoride (has been added to public water supplies in many countries as a dental health strategy.This practice began in 1945 in the U.S.city of Grand Rapids,where scientists first tested water fluoridation to fight widespread tooth decay().By 英语试题第5页（共10页） the 1950s,it became standard public health policy across America,particularly helping children in low-income families access cavity protection.However,recent scientific findings have reignited debates.A 2024 study published in Environmental Health suggested possible links between high fluoride exposure and subtle changes in children's cognitive development,though researchers stressed these findings require confirmation through further studies. Fluoride strengthens teeth through two distinct mechanisms.When applied directly-such as through toothpaste-it chemically combines with tooth enamel's mineral structure,forming a protective barrier against acid attacks from sugary foods.This process,called remineralization,can repair early damage.Systemically,swallowed fluoride enters the bloodstream and gradually releases into saliva,providing continuous enamel reinforcement.Research reveals striking differences between these methods:brushing with fluoride toothpaste delivers 10 times more enamel-protecting fluoride than drinking eight glasses of fluoridated water daily. Natural sources contribute significantly to fluoride intake.A single cup of brewed tea contains fluoride equal to 1-2 liters of treated water,while processed foods made with fluoridated water like canned soups)add more exposure.Modem children's primary fluoride source has shifted dramatically since the 1950s.A 2022 analysis showed daily toothbrushing exposes children to fluoride matching 2-6 cups of fluoridated water,compared to just half a cup from actual water consumption.This shift explains why some scientists now question the necessity of water fluoridation in areas with good dental care access. The debale centers on health equity.While fluoride-free altematives exist,40%of American children under 12 still develop cavities ()with rates three times higher in low-income communities.Dental associations argue fluoridated water remains a crucial safety net,especially for families who might forget to brush or lack dental insurance.Current U.S.regulations maintain fluoride levels at 0.7 milligrams per liter-a balance between dental benefits and potential risks. Health authorities recommend continued monitoring,advising parents to oversee young children's toothpaste use to prevent accidental overconsumption. As global health organizations review new evidence,this decades-old public health practice faces its most serious challenge.The core question remains:How can societies protect vulnerable populations while respecting evolving scientific understanding? 32.What historical fact is mentioned about fluoride use? A.It was first tested in canned foods. B.It became U.S.policy in the 1920s. C.Tea companies promoted its benefits. D.Grand Rapids conducted early experiments. 33.How does fluoride repair early-stage tooth decay? A.Through blood circulation. B.By forming a mineral barrier. C.By killing all mouth bacteria. D.Through saliva mineral release. 34.Why do some scientists question water fluoridation today? A.It causes immediate health risks. B.Modern children consume more tea. C.Canned soups contain excess fluoride. D.Toothpaste provides sufficient fluoride. 英语试题第6页（共10页） 35.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A.Fluoride Sources Comparison:Toothpaste vs Drinking Water B.The Historical Success of Water Fluoridation Programs Since 1945 C.Public Health Dilemma:Reassessing Present Fluoridation Policies D.How Fluoride Prevents Childhood Cavities:Mechanisms Explained 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。 How to build patience abilities What's the purpose of building patience abilities?In a word,happiness.Better relationships, more success.36 Effective ways are recommended to train ourselves to work with little pain and annoyance.Thus,when the big ones come,we will have developed the patience we need for hard times. Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience.We,human beings,are still constructed with our old reptilian(爬行a动物的)brain that protects our physical and emotional survival.The urge to protect ourselves and what we consider valuable is absolutely habit-forming. So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience-anger,impatience,blame and shame.37 Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain.Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions-we try to change the other person,situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort.But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that's the source of our pain,but how our mind is set.38 Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts.Most of us don't really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest-but very present-painful feelings.39 But to really care for ourselves,get curious about what's actually happening in the moment inside you.Focusing on what's actually happening,you can notice the worry of not wanting what's happening,the resistance 40 When you find yourself impatient,or angry with yourself,you can remind yourself that you are growing.You can say to yourself,"It's true.I don't like this;this is uncomfortable,but I can tolerate it.” A.So the solution to pain is an inside job. B.Patience abilities benefit you in many ways. C.We all have them,and we can grow beyond them. D.Talk to yourself like you'd cheer up your best friend. E.But indeed it takes efforts to build them successfully. F.Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times. G.We ignore the fact that we're in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem. 英语试题第7页（共10页） 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）】 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Many wonderful teachers have helped shape my life.One teacher who especially stands out in my 41 was Mr.Patrick Gallagher.He was my history teacher in high school,and one of the 42 of a service club where I was an officer.

Adam's parents,Joanne and Adam Sr.,transformed their home to welcome him.They removed doors for wheelchair access,installed ramps(),and tumed the living room into his rehabilitation(康复)space.“They still see me as the same person.I'm just-,legless now,” Adam joked during a family dinner,though his red eyes betrayed lasting pain.Nights were toughest.Alone in the dark,questions like "Why me?"echoed in his mind.Yet dawn always brought renewed determination.By 6 a.m.,he'd be lifting weights in the garage-turned-gym, muscles training as he rebuilt his athletic frame. As Christmas approached,Adam embraced small victories.He baked gingerbread cookies with his brothers and sisters,laughing as flour dusted his wheelchair.He visited his 91-year-old grandmother,who tearfully hugged him and slid a tin of his favorite apple pie into his lap.But beneath the cheer hid anxiety about the unknowns ahead. On Christmas Eve,surrounded by twinkling lights and his family's laughter,Adam nervously adjusted his prosthetics.His father handed him a small box tied with a red ribbon.Inside could be ski lesson vouchers(f代金券)一a nod to his love of sports-一or information about prosthetic athletic leagues.Outside,snowflakes drifted silently,sheltering the scars of the past.For Adam,this moment wasn't an ending.It was the first step onto a new kind of field-one where courage and struggle would forever dance together,creating a story far bigger than a football experience ever could. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph I:Adam lifted the box lid,holding his breath.
