B2下代版2天，网小t:N巴共T Dr.Emily Carter carefully spread a mixture made from Angelica sinensis (on the injured leg of a racehorse named Thunder."This is not just treatment:it puts old knowledge into practice." she said.At first.her coworkers at the Kentucky Horse Hospital doubted her methods.However. Carter's use of Chinese herbal treatments for horse injuries has shown remarkable results. Her interest in traditional medicine began in 2015 during a study program in Beijing.There,she saw Chinese veterinarians using herbs like Huangqi to help farm animals recover faster. Inspired,Carter decided to combine Western medical tools with these ancient methods.A study she published in a veterinary journal showed that her patients recovered 30%faster than those treated only with standard methods. A Despite her success.some experts argue that more long-term research is needed.They argue that herbs have varying effects on different animals and that clearer guidelines for their use are essential. In response to these concerns,Carter is now working with universities to develop safe and reliable herbal standards.She is confident that this partnership will not only enhance the effectiveness and safety of herbal treatments but also help traditional Chinese medicine gain wider acceptance in the global medical community. 上 In the quiet corner of her clinic,where the scent of dried herbs mixes with the calm breaths of recovering horses.Carter's work tells a story of its own--a story which reflects a growing trend: mixing Eastern and Western practices in animal care.Her hands,steady and sure,move from tending to a horse's wound to explaining the delicate balance of nature's treatments to its owner."Respecting nature's wisdom benefits both animals and humans."she often says,her voice carrying the weight of belief. 1494th21m4, 24.How did Dr.Carter treat the horse's injured leg? A A.He tried traditional herbs. B.He conducted a surgery on it. C.He applied a new X-ray machine. D.He left the horse to recover by itself. 25.What initially motivated Dr.Carter to use Chinese herbal treatment? 2d2 wisd rinenoitein o0出7e A.Peer recommendations. B.Her experience in Beijing. C.A racehorse's severe injury. D.Laboratory research findings. g 26.What is Dr.Carter doing with universities? A.Selling herbal products. B.Studying wild plant species. C.Training more veterinarians. D.Creating recognized herbal rules. 27.What does the last paragraph imply? A.The challenges in western medicine. B.The integration in medical practices. C.The limitations of herbal treatments. D.The importance of modern technology. c Tristan Yates and her team have discovered something amazing about babies and memory.Even though most of us can't remember being babies,their research shows that babies can actually form memories!This study,published in the journal Science,used a special brain-scanning machine called an fMRI to look at how babies'brains work when they see new things. The researchers showed babies pictures of things they had never seen before.like a canyon or a dog toy.About a minute later,they showed the babies the same picture alongside a new one.If the baby remembered the first picture,they would look at it longer.At the same time,the fMRI machine took pictures of the babies'brains,especially focusing on the hippocampus,a part of the brain that helps with memory.They found that when the hippocampus was more active,the babies were more likely to remember the picture later. Studying babies is formidable because they can't follow instructions,get bored quickly.and need lots of comfort.To make it work,the researchers created a relaxing environment with toys, blankets,and even bottles to keep the babies happy.Parents were also nearby to help. This discovery is important because it shows that babies'brains are busy learning and remembering,even if we can't recall those memories as we grow older."Even in their earliest months. babies are already absorbing vast amounts of information about the world around them,"said the lead researcher.During this critical period,babies learn essential skills like recognizing their parents. acquiring language,and mastering the basics of movement. The team emphasizes that understanding how babies'brains work is not just academic-it has profound implications for how we view early development."Early experiences shape who we become in ways we're only beginning to understand,"Yates added."Babies'earliest memories,though often forgotten,may play a more significant role in their cognitive and emotional development than previously thought." 28.How did the researchers conduct the study? A.By testing biological samples. B.By using brain imaging technology. C.By assessing babies'language ability.D.By observing babies'long-term behaviors. 29.Why did the researchers show the babies the same picture? A.To test their memory ability. B.To study their eye movements. C.To attract their attention longer. D.To compare old and new objects. 30.What does the underlined word"formidable"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Immoral B.Costly C.Challenging D.Rewarding 31.What can we learn about the study from Yates'words in the last paragraph? A.It proves babies gain all early memories. B.It advises limiting stimulation for babies. C.It claims language is babies'primary learning focus. D.It emphasizes early experiences'role in development. D South Korean scientists have developed a new type of food called"meaty rice".It is a mixture of cow muscle and fat cells integrated into rice grains.The research team at Seoul's Yonsei University, led by Professor Park So-hyeon,used a technique called cell-cultured protein,which involves growing animal cells in the lab without harming any animals.They then infused (these cells into rice grains.using a special process that preserves the grain's structure and properties. Meaty rice is a pink-hued grain that is packed with beef muscle and fat cells,offering a meaty taste and texture.According to the study,each gram of meaty rice contains about 0.4 grams of protein, compared to 0.08 grams in regular rice.It also has a higher iron,zinc and vitamin B12 content,which are essential for human health.It offers a unique flavor,enhances nutrition and reduces environmental impact. Conventional meat production consumes large amounts of land,water and energy and releases greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.Meaty rice,on the other hand,requires fewer resources and produces fewer emissions than animal farming.According to the study,meaty rice could reduce land use by 99%,water use by 96%and greenhouse gas emissions by 92%,compared to beef production However,meaty rice is still in its early stages of development and many issues must be tackled before it can be widely accepted.For instance,how will it affect the health and safety of consumers? How will it affect the livelihoods()of farmers and the economy of food production?The 6 researchers are optimistic that meaty rice will be a game-changer for the future of food and they are planning to conduct more tests to improve its quality.They believe that meaty rice could be the next frontier of food innovation and also help relieve hunger and malnutrition by providing cheaper and more accessible sources of protein and micronutrients. 32.How did researchers develop the meaty'rice? A.By adding artificial flavors to rice grains. B.By growing rice in a special environment. C.By integrating animal cells into rice grains.D.By infusing plant-based proteins into meat. 33.What advantage does meaty rice have over regular rice? t A.It has a higher yield. B.It is more nutritious. C.It has a fresher taste. D.It is more affordable. 34.What is the purpose of paragraph 3? Ps北国 A.To stress the strengths of meaty rice production. B.To explain the challenges of developing meaty rice, C.To reveal the significance of promoting green farming. D.To show the increasing demand for meat consumption. yEy29的，2行米 35.What can we infer about meaty rice according to researchers? A.It can be a key option to address the food crisis. B.It can greatly expand the livelihoods of farmers. C.It will completely resolve global issues of starvation. D.It will replace traditional meat products in the future. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）t 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 often have you said,"I should exercise,"but done nothing?Excuses are everywhere- you're busy or you just don't feel like it.36.But every small effort you make now lays the foundation for lasting progress-it's never too late to begin.

One sunny afternoon,the school announced that there would be a talent show.Emma's friends were excited about the opportunity to show their skills,but Emma's stomach turned at the thought. She loved music and could play the piano beautifully,but the idea of performing in front of a crowd made her heart race. "I can't do it,"she whispered to herself."What if I mess up?What if they laugh at me?" But her best friend,Lily,who knew Emma's love for music,encouraged her to sign up."You're really good,Emma.I know you can do it.You should show everyone what you can do."When she got home,her mother encouraged her,"It's okay to make mistakes.What matters is that you try your best."
