After morning exercises, we walked back to the classroom. Our legs hurt and shook. All of us complained (抱怨) about the tiring daily activity loudly. Some even acted to cough and 1 the teacher would excuse their bad running.
That afternoon, Ms. Smith asked us to play a special ball game. We tried to play with our legs tied to chairs. Some students kept dropping the ball. It was 2 to work together. So we felt disappointed. “Meet these two great 3 in the photos,” she said. “They are two of the best tennis athletes in their country, 4 they have to use wheelchairs.”
Ms. Smith asked us to ask questions as usual. “How could they do this 5 moving freely like us? Even we normal people can’t,” a student asked. Ms. Smith smiled and told us to have a discussion.
Each group discussed 6 and wrote their answers on the blackboard: They don’t want to 7 their lives. They hope to live a good life. They hope to challenge themselves... Ms. Smith 8 some words and said, “Good job. You found the key words. The words show the aim. Working hard for it is the answer, no matter what 9 they meet. That is courage over comfort (舒适).” We all became 10 , thinking hard.
From then on, we even started a “Sunrise Challenge”—running one more lap (一圈) every morning.

Wearable Health Tech for Teens
In recent years, wearable health technology has gained significant popularity among teenagers. These devices, such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, offer a range of features that can help teens monitor and improve their health.
One of the key benefits of wearable health tech for teens is the ability to track physical activity. Most fitness trackers can count steps, measure distance traveled, and monitor the number of calories burned. This information encourages teens to be more active and set fitness goals. For example, if a teen sees that they haven’t reached their daily step goal, they may be motivated to go for a walk or play a sport. Some devices even have built-in GPS, allowing teens to accurately track their running or cycling routes.
Wearable tech also helps with sleep monitoring. Many smartwatches can detect the different stages of sleep, such as deep sleep, light sleep, and REM sleep. By analyzing this data, teens can understand their sleep patterns better. If they notice that they are not getting enough deep sleep, they can make adjustments to their bedtime routine, like going to bed earlier or avoiding screens before sleep. This is especially important for teens, as proper sleep is crucial for their physical and mental development.
In addition, some wearable devices can monitor vital signs such as heart rate and blood pressure. This is useful for teens with certain health conditions or those who want to keep an eye on their overall well-being. For instance, if a teen’s heart rate suddenly spikes during exercise, the device can alert them, and they can take appropriate action.
Moreover, wearable health tech can be integrated with mobile apps, creating a community for teens. They can share their fitness achievements, compete with friends, and get motivation and support. This social aspect makes the experience of using these devices more engaging and fun for teens.
14.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The popularity of smartphones among teens
B.The development of video games for teens
C.Wearable health technology for teens
D.The use of laptops in education for teens
15.How can fitness trackers encourage teens to be more active?
A.By showing their social media posts B.By counting steps and setting goals
C.By playing music during exercise D.By taking pictures of their workouts
16.Why is sleep monitoring important for teens?
A.Because it helps them stay up late
B.Because it can replace their alarm clocks
C.Because proper sleep is important for their development
D.Because it makes them more popular at school
17.What is an additional benefit of wearable health tech?
A.It can replace doctors’ check-ups B.It can make teens’ schoolwork easier
C.It can create a social community for teens D.It can increase teens’ screen time

Many scientists once believed that physical (身体的) similarities between identical twins are genetic (基因的), while their personalities, intelligence (智力) and other differences between them are an effect (作用) of their environment. Now scientists are discovering that the boundaries between genes and environment are not so clear.
Twins Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted (领养) as babies and raised by different couples. When the Jims finally met at age 39, they discovered they had plenty in common. Both were six feet tall, 180 pounds. They had the same smile and the same voice. When scientist Thomas Bouchard Jr. invited the Jim twins to his lab, people there found it very hard to tell them apart.
But the similarities didn’t stop at the physical. They’d both had dogs named Toy. They had both married women named Linda and then their marriage broke up. They’d both been policemen, enjoyed music, and left love notes around the house for their wives. They had so much in common, and it seemed impossible that these were just coincidences (巧合).
The Jim twins were just one of 137 sets of separated twins Bouchard tested. When they compared the twins’ IQ scores, Bouchard and his team reached a surprising conclusion. They concluded (断定) that intelligence was mostly connected to genes rather than to training or education. It seemed the differences in family and environment had little effect.
However, genes can’t control everything, argues geneticist Danielle Reed, who also studies twins. Reed’s research shows that though nothing can truly change our DNA, environmental differences that a child experiences before birth and in their first year can sometimes affect the way the DNA behaves, making even identical twins into very different people. “What I like to say is that Mother Nature writes some things in pencil and some things in pen,” She explains. “Things written in pen you can’t change. That’s DNA.But things written in pencil you can.”
18.How many physical similarities between the Jim twins are mentioned?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
19.What did Bouchard’s study find about the twins?
A.Each seemed to be as tall as their twin.
B.Each had the same hobby as their twin.
C.Each seemed to be as hardworking as their twin.
D.Each had about the same IQ level as their twin.
20.What is Reed’s opinion about genes and environment?
A.Only DNA has an effect on our development.
B.Environment could possibly change some things about us.
C.There are no boundaries between genes and environment.
D.Environmental differences can always change our DNA.
21.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The differences that affect the way the DNA behaves.
B.The physical and other similarities between the Jim twins.
C.The connection between identical twins’ intelligence and families.
D.The effects of genes and environment on personality and intelligence.

Uncle Vernon and Dudley came in the kitchen. Uncle Vernon opened his newspaper, and Dudley admired his own Smelting stick.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of the mail slot (邮递投递口). Mail dropped onto the front door. Uncle Vernon ordered Harry to get the mail. Harry went to pick up the mail and found: a postcard from Uncle Vernon’s sister Marge, a bill and...a letter for Harry.
Harry picked it up in surprise. No one had ever written to him before. Who would? He had no friends or other relatives. But here it was, a letter for him, with just a simple address.
“Hurry up! What are you doing, checking for letter bombs (炸弹)?” Uncle Vernon laughed at his own joke.
Harry went back into the kitchen, still holding the letter. He handed Uncle Vernon the bill and the postcard. Uncle Vernon quickly opened the bill and then read the postcard.
“Marge’s ill,” he said, looking at the postcard. “Ate something strange.”
Just as Harry wanted to open the letter, Dudley suddenly shouted, “Dad! Harry’s got something!”
Uncle Vernon grabbed (抓) it from him.
“That’s mine!” Harry said, trying to grab it back.
“Who’d be writing to you?” said Uncle Vernon, opening the letter and looking at it. His face went from red to green, then to white, like old porridge.
“Petunia!” Uncle Vernon shouted.
Dudley tried to grab the letter, but Uncle Vernon held it high. Aunt Petunia turned around and took the letter and read the first line. She looked like she might fall down.
“Vernon! Oh my god—Vernon!” she said.
They stared at each other, not noticing that Harry and Dudley were still in the room. Dudley wasn’t used to being ignored (忽略).
“I want to read that letter,” he said loudly.
“I want to read it,” Harry said angrily, “because it’s mine!”
“Get out, both of you!” Uncle Vernon shouted. He grabbed Harry and Dudley by the necks and threw them into the hall, shutting the kitchen door behind them.
(Adapted from Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone)
22.What did Harry find in the mail?
A.Only a bill and a postcard. B.A postcard, a bill and a letter for himself.
C.Three letters for Uncle Vernon. D.An advertisement and a postcard.
23.Put the following events in order:
a)Uncle Vernon read the postcard. b)Harry picked up the mail.
c)Uncle Vernon threw Harry and Dudley out. d)Dudley shouted about Harry’s letter.
A.b-a-d-c B.a-b-c-d C.d-c-b-a D.b-d-a-c
24.Which of the following best shows the changes in Uncle Vernon’s feelings?
A.scared-happy-angry B.happy-scared-angry
C.scared-angry-happy D.happy-angry-scared
25.Why were Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia so afraid of Harry’s letter?
A.Because the letter showed bad news about Aunt Marge’s illness.
B.Because they were surprised Harry could receive a letter.
C.Because they might know who sent the letter.
D.Because Dudley wanted to read it first.

Learning English can be hard, but don’t give up! With enough practice and right ways, you can learn the language well. 26 .
Watch movies and TV shows in English. 27 . This will make it more fun, which will help you actually learn English. However, you should avoid watching movies or television shows with subtitles (字幕) in your native language—they will take your attention away and you will be less likely to learn English from it.
Read a book, newspaper or magazine in English. 28 . Find something you like—whether that’s a famous English novel or a fashion magazine—and read it. Try to understand what you’re reading. Mark words that you don’t know, and look them up in the dictionary.
29 . Aside from reading and listening in English, you should also spend some time improving your written English skills. Writing in English will help you to work on your sentence structure (句型), grammar and spelling. Try keeping an English diary where you write down a few sentences every day. It doesn’t have to be personal — you could write about the weather, or what you ate for dinner.
Find a pen-pal (笔友) who is a native English speaker. Once your written English has improved, you could consider getting an English-speaking pen-pal! Your pen-pal could be a native English speaker who wants to practice their foreign language skills by writing to you in your native language. Meanwhile you can talk with your pen-pal in English. 30 .
A.Keep a diary in English
B.Here are some tips for you
C.Develop good speaking and writing skills
D.Studying a language is not just for your future
E.Reading is a great way to improve your English
F.In this way you can learn more about each other

Love plays an important role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us love and care.

A 14-year-old Girl Made an APP for Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默症) Patients
Emma is a 14-year-old student. Her grandma has Alzheimer’s Disease which has caused her to forget things that were very important to her. Emma’s family stay connected by sending her photos through her iPad, in hopes that she would remember them for as long as possible. Her caregiver would give her the iPad and she would look at the photos. Sometimes she remembers the people in the photos, sometimes she doesn’t, because recognizing people is becoming increasingly difficult. She also needs her caregiver to help her remember to do everyday tasks such as taking medicine or making phone calls. Her illness is making it difficult for her to stay connected with others.
As time went by, Emma started to wonder, is there a simple mobile app that could help her grandmother and other Alzheimer’s patients remember events, stay connected with friends and family, and recognize people around them?
Emma’s family hunted widely for such an app. But they were disappointed because in fact, the app they wanted didn’t exist (存在). There are many tools in the market but none of them help patients improve their daily lives. They also found that there were very few apps developed for the elderly, due to the stereotype (刻板印象) that old people cannot use technology. They are the under-served people. Right at around that time, Emma started learning how to code in Swift, an iOS programming (编程) language. So she took the matter into her own hands and developed the app Timeless.
Emma spent two years working on the app that uses AI-powered facial recognition to help Alzheimer’s patients identify people in their life. Patients take a photo of a person and the app helps them identify who that is, whether it is a loved one or a caregiver. The app also works as a daily planner and helps patients to remember events and stay connected to their social support system.
Emma is now working with an international team of developers to improve the app. With a design expert and a software developer, she believes she can make Timeless a convenient and user-friendly app for Alzheimer’s patients.
54.Why did Emma and her family feel disappointed?
55.How does the app Timeless help Alzheimer’s patients?
56.What do you think of Emma? Why do you think so?

Wearable Health Tech for Teens
In recent years, wearable health technology has gained significant popularity among teenagers. These devices, such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, offer a range of features that can help teens monitor and improve their health.
One of the key benefits of wearable health tech for teens is the ability to track physical activity. Most fitness trackers can count steps, measure distance traveled, and monitor the number of calories burned. This information encourages teens to be more active and set fitness goals. For example, if a teen sees that they haven’t reached their daily step goal, they may be motivated to go for a walk or play a sport. Some devices even have built-in GPS, allowing teens to accurately track their running or cycling routes.
Wearable tech also helps with sleep monitoring. Many smartwatches can detect the different stages of sleep, such as deep sleep, light sleep, and REM sleep. By analyzing this data, teens can understand their sleep patterns better. If they notice that they are not getting enough deep sleep, they can make adjustments to their bedtime routine, like going to bed earlier or avoiding screens before sleep. This is especially important for teens, as proper sleep is crucial for their physical and mental development.
In addition, some wearable devices can monitor vital signs such as heart rate and blood pressure. This is useful for teens with certain health conditions or those who want to keep an eye on their overall well-being. For instance, if a teen’s heart rate suddenly spikes during exercise, the device can alert them, and they can take appropriate action.
Moreover, wearable health tech can be integrated with mobile apps, creating a community for teens. They can share their fitness achievements, compete with friends, and get motivation and support. This social aspect makes the experience of using these devices more engaging and fun for teens.

C
Many scientists once believed that physical (身体的) similarities between identical twins are genetic (基因的), while their personalities, intelligence (智力) and other differences between them are an effect (作用) of their environment. Now scientists are discovering that the boundaries between genes and environment are not so clear.
Twins Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted (领养) as babies and raised by different couples. When the Jims finally met at age 39, they discovered they had plenty in common. Both were six feet tall, 180 pounds. They had the same smile and the same voice. When scientist Thomas Bouchard Jr. invited the Jim twins to his lab, people there found it very hard to tell them apart.
But the similarities didn’t stop at the physical. They’d both had dogs named Toy. They had both married women named Linda and then their marriage broke up. They’d both been policemen, enjoyed music, and left love notes around the house for their wives. They had so much in common, and it seemed impossible that these were just coincidences (巧合).
The Jim twins were just one of 137 sets of separated twins Bouchard tested. When they compared the twins’ IQ scores, Bouchard and his team reached a surprising conclusion. They concluded (断定) that intelligence was mostly connected to genes rather than to training or education. It seemed the differences in family and environment had little effect.
However, genes can’t control everything, argues geneticist Danielle Reed, who also studies twins. Reed’s research shows that though nothing can truly change our DNA, environmental differences that a child experiences before birth and in their first year can sometimes affect the way the DNA behaves, making even identical twins into very different people. “What I like to say is that Mother Nature writes some things in pencil and some things in pen,” She explains. “Things written in pen you can’t change. That’s DNA.But things written in pencil you can.”
18.How many physical similarities between the Jim twins are mentioned?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
19.What did Bouchard’s study find about the twins?
A.Each seemed to be as tall as their twin.
B.Each had the same hobby as their twin.
C.Each seemed to be as hardworking as their twin.
D.Each had about the same IQ level as their twin.
20.What is Reed’s opinion about genes and environment?
A.Only DNA has an effect on our development.
B.Environment could possibly change some things about us.
C.There are no boundaries between genes and environment.
D.Environmental differences can always change our DNA.
21.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The differences that affect the way the DNA behaves.
B.The physical and other similarities between the Jim twins.
C.The connection between identical twins’ intelligence and families.
D.The effects of genes and environment on personality and intelligence.
【答案】18.C 19.D 20.B 21.D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文,通过研究结果说明基因和环境对我们的人格和智力的影响。
18.细节理解题。根据“Both were six feet tall, 180 pounds. They had the same smile and the same voice”可知,两人身高都是六英尺,体重一百八十磅,有着同样的笑容和同样的声音。提及他们4处身体上的相似之处,故选C。
19.推理判断题。根据“When they compared the twins’ IQ scores, Bouchard and his team reached a surprising conclusion. They concluded that intelligence was mostly connected to genes rather than to training or education. ”可知,当他们比较双胞胎的智商分数时,Bouchard和他的团队发现:智力在很大程度上与基因有关,而不是与训练或教育有关。所以他们的智商水平差不多,故选D。
20.推理判断题。根据“Read’s research shows that though nothing can truly change our DNA, environmental differences that a child experiences before birth and in their first year can sometimes affect the way the DNA behaves, making even identical twins into very different people.”可知,Read的研究表明,孩子所经历的环境差异有时会影响DNA的表达,甚至使同卵双胞胎成为非常不同的人。所以环境可能会改变我们的一些东西,故选B。
21.主旨大意题。根据“Now scientists are discovering that the boundaries between genes and environment are not so clear.”和后文具体内容可知,本文通过研究结果说明基因和环境对人格和智力的影响。故选D。

Uncle Vernon and Dudley came in the kitchen. Uncle Vernon opened his newspaper, and Dudley admired his own Smelting stick.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of the mail slot (邮递投递口). Mail dropped onto the front door. Uncle Vernon ordered Harry to get the mail. Harry went to pick up the mail and found: a postcard from Uncle Vernon’s sister Marge, a bill and...a letter for Harry.
Harry picked it up in surprise. No one had ever written to him before. Who would? He had no friends or other relatives. But here it was, a letter for him, with just a simple address.
“Hurry up! What are you doing, checking for letter bombs (炸弹)?” Uncle Vernon laughed at his own joke.
Harry went back into the kitchen, still holding the letter. He handed Uncle Vernon the bill and the postcard. Uncle Vernon quickly opened the bill and then read the postcard.
“Marge’s ill,” he said, looking at the postcard. “Ate something strange.”
Just as Harry wanted to open the letter, Dudley suddenly shouted, “Dad! Harry’s got something!”
Uncle Vernon grabbed (抓) it from him.
“That’s mine!” Harry said, trying to grab it back.
“Who’d be writing to you?” said Uncle Vernon, opening the letter and looking at it. His face went from red to green, then to white, like old porridge.
“Petunia!” Uncle Vernon shouted.
Dudley tried to grab the letter, but Uncle Vernon held it high. Aunt Petunia turned around and took the letter and read the first line. She looked like she might fall down.
“Vernon! Oh my god—Vernon!” she said.
They stared at each other, not noticing that Harry and Dudley were still in the room. Dudley wasn’t used to being ignored (忽略).
“I want to read that letter,” he said loudly.
“I want to read it,” Harry said angrily, “because it’s mine!”
“Get out, both of you!” Uncle Vernon shouted. He grabbed Harry and Dudley by the necks and threw them into the hall, shutting the kitchen door behind them.
(Adapted from Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone)

24.Which of the following best shows the changes in Uncle Vernon’s feelings?
A.scared-happy-angry B.happy-scared-angry
C.scared-angry-happy D.happy-angry-scared
25.Why were Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia so afraid of Harry’s letter?
A.Because the letter showed bad news about Aunt Marge’s illness.
B.Because they were surprised Harry could receive a letter.
C.Because they might know who sent the letter.
D.Because Dudley wanted to read it first.

A 14-year-old Girl Made an APP for Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默症) Patients
Emma is a 14-year-old student. Her grandma has Alzheimer’s Disease which has caused her to forget things that were very important to her. Emma’s family stay connected by sending her photos through her iPad, in hopes that she would remember them for as long as possible. Her caregiver would give her the iPad and she would look at the photos. Sometimes she remembers the people in the photos, sometimes she doesn’t, because recognizing people is becoming increasingly difficult. She also needs her caregiver to help her remember to do everyday tasks such as taking medicine or making phone calls. Her illness is making it difficult for her to stay connected with others.
As time went by, Emma started to wonder, is there a simple mobile app that could help her grandmother and other Alzheimer’s patients remember events, stay connected with friends and family, and recognize people around them?
Emma’s family hunted widely for such an app. But they were disappointed because in fact, the app they wanted didn’t exist (存在). There are many tools in the market but none of them help patients improve their daily lives. They also found that there were very few apps developed for the elderly, due to the stereotype (刻板印象) that old people cannot use technology. They are the under-served people. Right at around that time, Emma started learning how to code in Swift, an iOS programming (编程) language. So she took the matter into her own hands and developed the app Timeless.
Emma spent two years working on the app that uses AI-powered facial recognition to help Alzheimer’s patients identify people in their life. Patients take a photo of a person and the app helps them identify who that is, whether it is a loved one or a caregiver. The app also works as a daily planner and helps patients to remember events and stay connected to their social support system.
Emma is now working with an international team of developers to improve the app. With a design expert and a software developer, she believes she can make Timeless a convenient and user-friendly app for Alzheimer’s patients.
54.Why did Emma and her family feel disappointed?
55.How does the app Timeless help Alzheimer’s patients?
56.What do you think of Emma? Why do you think so?
【答案】 54.Because in fact, the app they wanted didn’t exist. 55.The app uses AI-powered facial recognition to help Alzheimer’s patients identify people in their life. The app also works as a daily planner and helps patients to remember events and stay connected to their social support system. 56.I think Emma is a caring person. Because she has developed the app Timeless and she cares about the elderly.
【解析】本文主要介绍艾玛的祖母患有阿尔茨海默症,总是忘记事情,她决定创建一个应用程序来帮助患有阿尔茨海默症的人。她的应用程序被称为“永恒”。它使用面部识别技术。阿尔茨海默症患者可以使用该应用程序查看他们朋友和家人的照片。虽然这个应用程序还在开发中,但艾玛充满了希望。
54.根据“But they were disappointed because in fact, the app they wanted didn’t exist (存在).”可知,因为事实上,他们想要的应用程序并不存在。故填Because in fact, the app they wanted didn’t exist.
55.根据“Emma spent two years working on the app that uses AI-powered facial recognition to help Alzheimer’s patients identify people in their life.;The app also works as a daily planner and helps patients to remember events and stay connected to their social support system.”可知,该应用程序使用人工智能支持的面部识别来帮助阿尔茨海默病患者识别生活中的人。该应用程序还可以作为日常计划器,帮助患者记住事件并与他们的社会支持系统保持联系。故填The app uses AI-powered facial recognition to help Alzheimer’s patients identify people in their life. The app also works as a daily planner and helps patients to remember events and stay connected to their social support system.
56.开放性试题,答案合理即可。参考答案:我认为艾玛是一位有爱心的人。因为她开发了帮助患有阿尔茨海默病的病人,这有助于他们记住事件并与他们的社会支持系统保持联系。故填I think Emma is a caring person. Because she has developed the app Timeless and she cares about the elderly.

Dear classmates,
I’m thrilled to share my experience winning the first prize in the “the Beauty of Nature” photography exhibition. I took this photo last fall at Sunset Hill. It shows a beautiful moment when golden leaves were falling softly, making a colorful ground under the warm sunset light.
I chose this photo because it perfectly conveys nature’s magic. As I watched the leaves dancing in the breeze, I felt a deep connection to the Earth, and I wanted to share that sense of peace and wonder with others.
Participating in the exhibition was an unforgettable experience. It not only allowed me to express my love for nature but also taught me to observe the world with a more appreciative eye. I’m truly grateful for this opportunity, and I hope my work inspires you to discover the beauty of nature too!
That’s all! Thank you!
