Tourist guide to Murmansk
Geography
Most of the Murmansk Region lies beyond the Arctic Circle. The territory occupies three peninsulas—Kola, Rybachy and Sredny, washed by the Barents and White Seas, and a number of islands.
Climate
The territory of Murmansk belongs to the regions of the Far North. Snow cover lies from mid-October to mid-May (in mountainous areas from late September to mid-June).
The average annual temperature in summer is from 8℃ to 14℃, and in winter from -8℃ to -13℃. In summer, frosts, snowfalls, and heavy rains are possible. The climate of different areas is different. So, in the south part it is moderately marine, and in the north part it is affected by the Arctic Circle. Strong winds are frequent on the seashore and plateaus.
In winter, the polar night is characteristic (from November 29th to January 15th), and in summer, the polar day(from May 21st to July 22nd).
Types of tourism
The Murmansk Region is of interest for various types of tourism. Fans of photo hunting will be able to get acquainted with the wildlife of the Arctic. Diving enthusiasts will find a unique underwater world of two seas. Stone seekers are waiting for deposits of amethysts, apatites and other minerals. Those for whom rest is impossible without good fishing will be able to get the prize they desire — sea bass, catfish, trout or even salmon. And, of course, the amazing northern lights will not leave anyone indifferent.

It was one of my favorite parts of the day, when I walked my husky, Max, around our neighborhood, the sun shining down on us. “It’s such a beautiful day,” I told him. He barked in agreement before tugging on the lead, eager to meet new people that he could stop and have a cuddle with. Though wolf-like in appearance, he was a teddy bear at heart. He was cheeky, and loved testing the limits of what he could do — like snuggling with us on the couch or the bed — but I loved him for it.
We were around 200m away from our house, when suddenly I felt a thud on my back and everything went black. When I came around, I was in the hospital, covered in wires. My husband David was by my bedside. “What happened?” I croaked. I couldn’t remember a thing. David explained a woman had been driving down the quiet road where Max and I were walking when her vehicle lost control, mounted the pavement and hit me, propelling me head-first into a rock wall, cracking my skull open and exposing my brain. The wall was surrounded by trees and bushes, meaning my lifeless body was hidden from sight from anyone walking past.
Fortunately, Max had escaped, unharmed. Realizing I needed help, our clever boy ran home to raise the alarm. He pawed at the door until David opened it. “He was covered in your blood, and I knew something must have happened to you,” David told me. When I didn’t answer my phone, he grabbed Max’s lead and let him lead the way. Before reaching me, David came across the police at the scene where the driver had crashed. “Please, help me. I can’t find my partner!” he shouted to them. With the help of Max, they found me hidden behind a tree, unconscious and bleeding.
The ambulance arrived and took me to the hospital, where I was put in an induced coma for 27 days. I’d sustained a traumatic brain injury and needed to go through an 11-hour reconstructive surgery because every bone in my face was broken.
“You wouldn’t have made it if it weren’t for Max,” David told me, teary-eyed. The paramedics said if I’d been left there 10 minutes more, I’d be dead. Max had saved my life.
4. What do we know about Max and the author from Paragraph 1?
A. He tended to be ignorant of her feelings. B. He misunderstood her and acted aggressively.
C. He sensed her mood and responded accordingly. D. He was too distracted to notice her emotions.
5. How did David find the author after the accident?
A. He followed the sound of her scream. B. He was led by Max to the location.
C He tracked the ambulance sirens to the site. D. He was assisted by the police to the scene.
6. What can be inferred about Max from the story?
A. He was intelligent and loyal. B. He was shy and avoided people.
C. He was fierce and protective. D. He was calm and indifferent to danger.
7. What’s probably the best title for the passage?
A. A Terrifying Car Accident B. Husky: A Most Intelligent Dog
C. 27 Days in a Coma D. Max: The Hero Who Saved My Life
C
A little-known Chinese AI company, DeepSeek, has disrupted years of U. S. policies aimed at limiting China’s tech growth by releasing an advanced AI model without relying on U. S. semiconductors. This achievement challenged the belief that top-tier hardware is essential for AI development. Central to this story is Liang Wenfeng, DeepSeek’s 40-year-old founder.
In 2013, Liang and his classmates launched Yakebi, a firm to commercialize data-driven investment models, which later evolved into High-Flyer, a quantitative hedge fund (对冲基金) that grew rapidly during China’s market deregulation. By 2021, High-Flyer managed $14 billion but faced regulatory check for profiting from market crashes.
DeepSeek originated from High-Flyer’s efforts to improve its algorithms. After spinning off as an independent company in 2023, DeepSeek shocked the market in May 2024 by releasing a chatbot priced 99% lower than rivals, triggering a price war that forced Alibaba, Baidu, and Tencent to slash prices. Liang insisted this was not a user-acquisition strategy but a result of innovative model designs that reduced costs.
While most Chinese AI firms rely on Meta’s open-source Llama models due to computing limitations, DeepSeek claims its R1 model — trained for under $6 million compared to OpenAI’s $100million budgets — achieves similar performance through efficient architecture. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called R1 “impressive” but dismissed it as a temporary challenge. Skeptics question whether DeepSeek underreported chip usage, a claim OpenAI says it has evidence for. If DeepSeek’s efficiency claims hold, it weakens both U. S. tech dominance and China’s state-led innovation model.
In summary, the success of DeepSeek has proved that it had broken traditional limitations and created what could become a new path for collaborative advancement despite facing western restrictions in terms of advanced semiconductor technologies. State media now praises DeepSeek as a “national treasure”, and Liang met China’s premier in January 2025.
8. What is the writing purpose of the article?
A. To criticize U. S. export restrictions. B. To discuss the U. S.-China competition.
C. To introduce a new Chinese company. D. To illustrate AI models’ impact.
9. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. High-Flyer faced regulatory checks because of its rapid development.
B. DeepSeek’s chatbot release led to its rivals cutting their prices.
C The performance of DeepSeek’s R1 model matched that of OpenAI at a similar cost.
D. DeepSeek was praised by China’s premier as a “national treasure”.
10. The underlined words in Paragraph 4 probably refer to DeepSeek’s ______.
A inaccurately using their chips B. intentionally attacking their competitors
C. cautiously adjusting their AI model’s design D. secretly using more resources than they admit
11. What do we know from DeepSeek’s success?
A. Chinese government should invest more in DeepSeek.
B. Cooperation is crucial for achieving success.
C. Following Western technology is the faster path to innovation.
D. Chinese tech companies will dominate future AI research.
D
Aging brings two opposing trends in cancer risk: first, the risk climbs in our 60s and 70s, as decades of genetic mutations(基因突变)build up in our bodies. But then, past the age of around 80, the risk drops again—and a new study may explain a key reason.
The international team of scientists behind the study analyzed lung cancer in mice, tracking the behavior of AT2 stem cells. These cells are crucial for lung regeneration(再生), and are also where many lung cancers get started.
What emerged was higher levels of a protein called NUPR1in the older mice. This caused cells to act as if they were deficient in iron, which in turn limited their regeneration rates—putting restrictions on both healthy growth and cancerous tumors. “The aging cells actually have more iron, but for reasons we don’t yet fully understand, they function like they don’t have enough,” says cancer biologist Xueqian Zhuang, from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center(MSK) in New York.
The same processes were found to be happening in human cells too: more NUPR1 leads to a drop in the amount of iron available to cells. When NUPR1 was artificially lowered or iron was artificially increased, cell growth capabilities were boosted again.
That potentially gives researchers a way of exploring treatments that target iron metabolism(代谢)—especially in older people. It could perhaps restore lung capacity in those experiencing long-term effects from COVID-19, for example. These findings also have implications for cancer treatments based on a type of cell death called ferroptosis(铁死亡), which is triggered by iron. This cell death is less common in older cells, the researchers found, because of their functional iron deficiency. This perhaps also makes them more resistant to cancer treatments based on ferroptosis that are in development—so the earlier a ferroptosis treatment can be tried, the better it’s likely to work.
There’s lots more to explore here about the effects of NUPR1 and how it relates to stem cell function, both healthy regeneration and cancerous growth.
12. What does the underlined word “deficient” in Paragraph 3mean?
A. Lacking. B. Sufficient. C. Flawless. D. Cautious.
13. How did the scientists make the new discovery?
A. By observing the performance of older mice. B. By researching into the lung regeneration.
C. By controlling the amount of NUPR1. D. By tracking the behavior of AT2 stem cells.
14. What can we learn from Paragraph 4 and 5?
A. It’s better to carry out the ferroptosis-based cancer treatment earlier.
B. What happens in mice cells doesn’t happen in human cells.
C. The amount of iron can be lowered to enhance cell growth ability.
D. Older cells are sensitive to cancer treatments based on ferroptosis.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The reason for decreased risk of cancer with people aging.
B. The process of aging cells’ renewal in cancer treatments.
C. The role of NUPR1 in reducing aging-related cancer risk.
D. The effect of cells on lung regeneration and cancer risk.

Easy ways to save money on petrol
The petrol price skyrocketed around the world after the war broke out between Russia and Ukraine in February 2022. Everyone is feeling a pinch at the pump (油泵). Daily commuters, road trippers and pretty much everyone with a driver’s license wants to know how to save money on petrol. ___16___ The tips below will show you how to get better petrol mileage (里程). Ready for big-time savings?
Plan the best route.
Getting straight from point A to point B sounds like the best way to save petrol. After all, shorter distances mean less time on the road and less fuel used, right? Well, not exactly. ___17___ Yes, it may seem odd to drive further to save petrol money, but some longer routes may actually be more fuel-efficient. It is estimated that travelling on a clear highway can lower your petrol mileage by 15 to 30 per cent, while stop-and-go traffic can cut it by 10 to 40 per cent. Therefore, a longer route doesn’t necessarily take more time or petrol to get you there.
Drive on properly inflated tyres.
Proper inflation of all four tyres is the key to maximizing petrol mileage, says Rick Cornilie, a senior tyre and auto expert. He adds that while engine efficiency is essential for getting better kilometres per litre when driving, your tyres need to be properly inflated in order to maximize the engine’s potential. ___18___
___19___
The heavier your car is, the less fuel-efficient it will become. If you’re looking for a super-simple solution when researching how to save petrol and get more kilometres per litre, start by removing unnecessary objects from your car. But don’t stop there. Avoid heavy items on the roof as well. You’ll help keep your car as fuel-efficient as possible.
Stop warming up your car.
We get it: when mornings are chilly, slipping into a warm front seat is great. ___20___ And you’ll find yourself at the pump sooner if you keep warming up your car. Modern cars don’t need anything more than a minute to “wake up”. Letting your car warm up any more than that is unnecessary. With petrol price rising, the warmth will ultimately leave you cold as you spend extra money at the pump.
A. Load your car with light stuff.
B. But your fuel economy is going to suffer.
C. Under-inflated tyres will deliver poor petrol mileage and lead to more visits to the pump.
D. Remove extra weight from your car.
E. So, we’re here to help you get the most for your money.
F. The inflation of your tyres matters a lot when it comes to the engine’s potential.
G. It’s more important to take the route that helps you avoid traffic, construction and congestion.

They also encouraged other older people not to let age hold them back. ____32____ some minor changes in plans — like deciding not to ride a motorbike in Bali because of concerns about falling — their age didn’t affect their plan of journey abroad. They said they felt ____33____ that if they were injured during their trip, their children would be at peace knowing that they were doing what they ____34____ wanted.

“John Tan! Wake up! You are late!” The loud voice of my mother rang in my ears. “Five more minutes...” I said sleepily, covering my ears with my pillow (枕头). I had a habit of being late for school every morning. Despite the repeated warnings of my discipline master and parents, I found it difficult to change.
“I have no time to drive you to school anymore. I need to get to work. Walk to school by yourself!” my mother said in annoyance as she hurried out of the door. As I was about to close my eyes again, realization hit me — Today I was taking my mathematics test! I glanced at the bedside clock. A minute before 7:30 am. “Oh no! I am going to be late!” I panicked as I jumped out of bed.
I got changed, grabbed my schoolbag and ran out of the house like a bolt of lightning. Just as I was about to run across the road, dark clouds filled the sky, appearing above like a heavy curtain. I dug in my schoolbag anxiously for an umbrella but to my regret, I had not packed one as I was late. Running now, I could see the school gate. Then, the heavens opened and I was wet from head to toe. I glanced at my watch. I was out of breath as I was ten minutes late for school!
What if the examination had already started? What if I was not allowed to sit it because I was late?
A lot of questions flooded my mind at the thought of missing the examination.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

Tourist guide to Murmansk
Geography
Most of the Murmansk Region lies beyond the Arctic Circle. The territory occupies three peninsulas—Kola, Rybachy and Sredny, washed by the Barents and White Seas, and a number of islands.
Climate
The territory of Murmansk belongs to the regions of the Far North. Snow cover lies from mid-October to mid-May (in mountainous areas from late September to mid-June).
The average annual temperature in summer is from 8℃ to 14℃, and in winter from -8℃ to -13℃. In summer, frosts, snowfalls, and heavy rains are possible. The climate of different areas is different. So, in the south part it is moderately marine, and in the north part it is affected by the Arctic Circle. Strong winds are frequent on the seashore and plateaus.
In winter, the polar night is characteristic (from November 29th to January 15th), and in summer, the polar day(from May 21st to July 22nd).
Types of tourism
The Murmansk Region is of interest for various types of tourism. Fans of photo hunting will be able to get acquainted with the wildlife of the Arctic. Diving enthusiasts will find a unique underwater world of two seas. Stone seekers are waiting for deposits of amethysts, apatites and other minerals. Those for whom rest is impossible without good fishing will be able to get the prize they desire — sea bass, catfish, trout or even salmon. And, of course, the amazing northern lights will not leave anyone indifferent.

It was one of my favorite parts of the day, when I walked my husky, Max, around our neighborhood, the sun shining down on us. “It’s such a beautiful day,” I told him. He barked in agreement before tugging on the lead, eager to meet new people that he could stop and have a cuddle with. Though wolf-like in appearance, he was a teddy bear at heart. He was cheeky, and loved testing the limits of what he could do — like snuggling with us on the couch or the bed — but I loved him for it.
We were around 200m away from our house, when suddenly I felt a thud on my back and everything went black. When I came around, I was in the hospital, covered in wires. My husband David was by my bedside. “What happened?” I croaked. I couldn’t remember a thing. David explained a woman had been driving down the quiet road where Max and I were walking when her vehicle lost control, mounted the pavement and hit me, propelling me head-first into a rock wall, cracking my skull open and exposing my brain. The wall was surrounded by trees and bushes, meaning my lifeless body was hidden from sight from anyone walking past.
Fortunately, Max had escaped, unharmed. Realizing I needed help, our clever boy ran home to raise the alarm. He pawed at the door until David opened it. “He was covered in your blood, and I knew something must have happened to you,” David told me. When I didn’t answer my phone, he grabbed Max’s lead and let him lead the way. Before reaching me, David came across the police at the scene where the driver had crashed. “Please, help me. I can’t find my partner!” he shouted to them. With the help of Max, they found me hidden behind a tree, unconscious and bleeding.
The ambulance arrived and took me to the hospital, where I was put in an induced coma for 27 days. I’d sustained a traumatic brain injury and needed to go through an 11-hour reconstructive surgery because every bone in my face was broken.
“You wouldn’t have made it if it weren’t for Max,” David told me, teary-eyed. The paramedics said if I’d been left there 10 minutes more, I’d be dead. Max had saved my life.
4. What do we know about Max and the author from Paragraph 1?
A. He tended to be ignorant of her feelings. B. He misunderstood her and acted aggressively.
C. He sensed her mood and responded accordingly. D. He was too distracted to notice her emotions.
5. How did David find the author after the accident?
A. He followed the sound of her scream. B. He was led by Max to the location.
C He tracked the ambulance sirens to the site. D. He was assisted by the police to the scene.
6. What can be inferred about Max from the story?
A. He was intelligent and loyal. B. He was shy and avoided people.
C. He was fierce and protective. D. He was calm and indifferent to danger.
7. What’s probably the best title for the passage?
A. A Terrifying Car Accident B. Husky: A Most Intelligent Dog
C. 27 Days in a Coma D. Max: The Hero Who Saved My Life
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D

C
A little-known Chinese AI company, DeepSeek, has disrupted years of U. S. policies aimed at limiting China’s tech growth by releasing an advanced AI model without relying on U. S. semiconductors. This achievement challenged the belief that top-tier hardware is essential for AI development. Central to this story is Liang Wenfeng, DeepSeek’s 40-year-old founder.
In 2013, Liang and his classmates launched Yakebi, a firm to commercialize data-driven investment models, which later evolved into High-Flyer, a quantitative hedge fund (对冲基金) that grew rapidly during China’s market deregulation. By 2021, High-Flyer managed $14 billion but faced regulatory check for profiting from market crashes.
DeepSeek originated from High-Flyer’s efforts to improve its algorithms. After spinning off as an independent company in 2023, DeepSeek shocked the market in May 2024 by releasing a chatbot priced 99% lower than rivals, triggering a price war that forced Alibaba, Baidu, and Tencent to slash prices. Liang insisted this was not a user-acquisition strategy but a result of innovative model designs that reduced costs.
While most Chinese AI firms rely on Meta’s open-source Llama models due to computing limitations, DeepSeek claims its R1 model — trained for under $6 million compared to OpenAI’s $100million budgets — achieves similar performance through efficient architecture. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called R1 “impressive” but dismissed it as a temporary challenge. Skeptics question whether DeepSeek underreported chip usage, a claim OpenAI says it has evidence for. If DeepSeek’s efficiency claims hold, it weakens both U. S. tech dominance and China’s state-led innovation model.
In summary, the success of DeepSeek has proved that it had broken traditional limitations and created what could become a new path for collaborative advancement despite facing western restrictions in terms of advanced semiconductor technologies. State media now praises DeepSeek as a “national treasure”, and Liang met China’s premier in January 2025.
8. What is the writing purpose of the article?
A. To criticize U. S. export restrictions. B. To discuss the U. S.-China competition.
C. To introduce a new Chinese company. D. To illustrate AI models’ impact.
9. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. High-Flyer faced regulatory checks because of its rapid development.
B. DeepSeek’s chatbot release led to its rivals cutting their prices.
C. The performance of DeepSeek’s R1 model matched that of OpenAI at a similar cost.
D. DeepSeek was praised by China’s premier as a “national treasure”.
10. The underlined words in Paragraph 4 probably refer to DeepSeek’s ______.
A. inaccurately using their chips B. intentionally attacking their competitors
C. cautiously adjusting their AI model’s design D. secretly using more resources than they admit
11. What do we know from DeepSeek’s success?
A. Chinese government should invest more in DeepSeek.
B. Cooperation is crucial for achieving success.
C. Following Western technology is the faster path to innovation.
D. Chinese tech companies will dominate future AI research.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文,主要介绍了一家中国人工智能公司DeepSeek通过发布一种不依赖美国半导体的先进AI模型,打破美国对中国的科技限制。

Aging brings two opposing trends in cancer risk: first, the risk climbs in our 60s and 70s, as decades of genetic mutations(基因突变)build up in our bodies. But then, past the age of around 80, the risk drops again—and a new study may explain a key reason.
The international team of scientists behind the study analyzed lung cancer in mice, tracking the behavior of AT2 stem cells. These cells are crucial for lung regeneration(再生), and are also where many lung cancers get started.
What emerged was higher levels of a protein called NUPR1in the older mice. This caused cells to act as if they were deficient in iron, which in turn limited their regeneration rates—putting restrictions on both healthy growth and cancerous tumors. “The aging cells actually have more iron, but for reasons we don’t yet fully understand, they function like they don’t have enough,” says cancer biologist Xueqian Zhuang, from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center(MSK) in New York.
The same processes were found to be happening in human cells too: more NUPR1 leads to a drop in the amount of iron available to cells. When NUPR1 was artificially lowered or iron was artificially increased, cell growth capabilities were boosted again.
That potentially gives researchers a way of exploring treatments that target iron metabolism(代谢)—especially in older people. It could perhaps restore lung capacity in those experiencing long-term effects from COVID-19, for example. These findings also have implications for cancer treatments based on a type of cell death called ferroptosis(铁死亡), which is triggered by iron. This cell death is less common in older cells, the researchers found, because of their functional iron deficiency. This perhaps also makes them more resistant to cancer treatments based on ferroptosis that are in development—so the earlier a ferroptosis treatment can be tried, the better it’s likely to work.
There’s lots more to explore here about the effects of NUPR1 and how it relates to stem cell function, both healthy regeneration and cancerous growth.
12. What does the underlined word “deficient” in Paragraph 3mean?
A. Lacking. B. Sufficient. C. Flawless. D. Cautious.
13 How did the scientists make the new discovery?
A. By observing the performance of older mice. B. By researching into the lung regeneration.
C. By controlling the amount of NUPR1. D. By tracking the behavior of AT2 stem cells.
14. What can we learn from Paragraph 4 and 5?
A. It’s better to carry out the ferroptosis-based cancer treatment earlier.
B. What happens in mice cells doesn’t happen in human cells.
C. The amount of iron can be lowered to enhance cell growth ability.
D. Older cells are sensitive to cancer treatments based on ferroptosis.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The reason for decreased risk of cancer with people aging.
B. The process of aging cells’ renewal in cancer treatments.
C. The role of NUPR1 in reducing aging-related cancer risk.
D. The effect of cells on lung regeneration and cancer risk.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. C

词义猜测题题。根据第三段“What emerged was higher levels of a protein called NUPR1 in the older mice. This caused cells to act as if they were deficient in iron, which in turn limited their regeneration rates—putting restrictions on both healthy growth and cancerous tumors.(结果发现老年小鼠体内一种名为 NUPR1 的蛋白质水平较高。这导致细胞表现得好像 deficient铁,进而限制了它们的再生率 —— 对健康生长和癌细胞肿瘤都加以限制)” 以及第四段 “more NUPR1 leads to a drop in the amount of iron available to cells. When NUPR1 was artificially lowered or iron was artificially increased, cell growth capabilities were boosted again.(更多的 NUPR1 会导致细胞可用铁量的下降。当人为降低 NUPR1 或人为增加铁时,细胞生长能力又得到了提升)” 可知,NUPR1 水平升高使得细胞可用铁量下降,进而限制细胞再生,所以细胞表现得好像缺铁。划线词为“缺少的”。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The international team of scientists behind the study analyzed lung cancer in mice, tracking the behavior of AT2 stem cells. These cells are crucial for lung regeneration (再生), and are also where many lung cancers get started.(进行这项研究的国际科学家团队分析了小鼠的肺癌情况,追踪了 AT2 干细胞的行为。这些细胞对肺再生至关重要,也是许多肺癌的起源之处)” 可知,科学家是通过追踪 AT2 干细胞的行为来进行研究并获得新发现的。故选 D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“This perhaps also makes them more resistant to cancer treatments based on ferroptosis that are in development—so the earlier a ferroptosis treatment can be tried, the better it’s likely to work.(这可能也使它们对正在研发的基于铁死亡的癌症治疗更具抗性 —— 所以基于铁死亡的治疗尝试得越早,可能效果越好)” 可知,基于铁死亡的癌症治疗最好尽早进行。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Aging brings two opposing trends in cancer risk: first, the risk climbs in our 60s and 70s, as decades of genetic mutations(基因突变)build up in our bodies. But then, past the age of around 80, the risk drops again—and a new study may explain a key reason.(衰老在癌症风险方面呈现出两种相反的趋势:首先,在六七十岁时,由于数十年的基因突变在我们体内不断累积,患癌风险上升。但随后,过了大约 80 岁,风险又会下降 —— 一项新研究或许能解释其中的关键原因)” 引出话题。接着第三段提到 “What emerged was higher levels of a protein called NUPR1 in the older mice. This caused cells to act as if they were deficient in iron, which in turn limited their regeneration rates—putting restrictions on both healthy growth and cancerous tumors.(结果发现老年小鼠体内一种名为 NUPR1 的蛋白质水平较高。这导致细胞表现得好像缺铁,进而限制了它们的再生率 —— 对健康生长和癌细胞肿瘤都加以限制)”,点明 NUPR1 在降低老年癌症风险中的作用。后文继续阐述该蛋白质对细胞铁代谢以及癌症治疗的影响。可知文章主要讲述的是 NUPR1 在降低与衰老相关的癌症风险中的作用。故选C。

Easy ways to save money on petrol
The petrol price skyrocketed around the world after the war broke out between Russia and Ukraine in February 2022. Everyone is feeling a pinch at the pump (油泵). Daily commuters, road trippers and pretty much everyone with a driver’s license wants to know how to save money on petrol. ___16___ The tips below will show you how to get better petrol mileage (里程). Ready for big-time savings?
Plan the best route.
Getting straight from point A to point B sounds like the best way to save petrol. After all, shorter distances mean less time on the road and less fuel used, right? Well, not exactly. ___17___ Yes, it may seem odd to drive further to save petrol money, but some longer routes may actually be more fuel-efficient. It is estimated that travelling on a clear highway can lower your petrol mileage by 15 to 30 per cent, while stop-and-go traffic can cut it by 10 to 40 per cent. Therefore, a longer route doesn’t necessarily take more time or petrol to get you there.
Drive on properly inflated tyres.
Proper inflation of all four tyres is the key to maximizing petrol mileage, says Rick Cornilie, a senior tyre and auto expert. He adds that while engine efficiency is essential for getting better kilometres per litre when driving, your tyres need to be properly inflated in order to maximize the engine’s potential. ___18___
___19___
The heavier your car is, the less fuel-efficient it will become. If you’re looking for a super-simple solution when researching how to save petrol and get more kilometres per litre, start by removing unnecessary objects from your car. But don’t stop there. Avoid heavy items on the roof as well. You’ll help keep your car as fuel-efficient as possible.
Stop warming up your car.
We get it: when mornings are chilly, slipping into a warm front seat is great. ___20___ And you’ll find yourself at the pump sooner if you keep warming up your car. Modern cars don’t need anything more than a minute to “wake up”. Letting your car warm up any more than that is unnecessary. With petrol price rising, the warmth will ultimately leave you cold as you spend extra money at the pump.
A. Load your car with light stuff.
B. But your fuel economy is going to suffer.
C. Under-inflated tyres will deliver poor petrol mileage and lead to more visits to the pump.
D. Remove extra weight from your car.
E. So, we’re here to help you get the most for your money.
F. The inflation of your tyres matters a lot when it comes to the engine’s potential.
G. It’s more important to take the route that helps you avoid traffic, construction and congestion.
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. C 19. D 20. B

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:动画电影《哪吒 2》于2025年1月29日上映,在电影界取得了巨大成功。空处考查非谓语动词,film与release为被动关系,再由语境可知,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填released。

考查冠词。句意:他们的灵魂处于极大的危险之中,直到中国神话中一位睿智的仙人太乙真人用一朵神奇的七彩莲花救了他们。immortal为可数名词,此处表泛指“一位睿智的仙人”,所以此空应填不定冠词,且wise以辅音音素开头。故填a。

【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:最令人难忘的部分是最后的战斗,角色们使用了像可变形的天元鼎这样的惊人武器。空处作定语修饰part,结合语境可知,此处指“令人难忘的”,用形容词unforgettable。故填unforgettable。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“John Tan! Wake up! You are late!” The loud voice of my mother rang in my ears. “Five more minutes...” I said sleepily, covering my ears with my pillow (枕头). I had a habit of being late for school every morning. Despite the repeated warnings of my discipline master and parents, I found it difficult to change.
“I have no time to drive you to school anymore. I need to get to work. Walk to school by yourself!” my mother said in annoyance as she hurried out of the door. As I was about to close my eyes again, realization hit me — Today I was taking my mathematics test! I glanced at the bedside clock. A minute before 7:30 am. “Oh no! I am going to be late!” I panicked as I jumped out of bed.
I got changed, grabbed my schoolbag and ran out of the house like a bolt of lightning. Just as I was about to run across the road, dark clouds filled the sky, appearing above like a heavy curtain. I dug in my schoolbag anxiously for an umbrella but to my regret, I had not packed one as I was late. Running now, I could see the school gate. Then, the heavens opened and I was wet from head to toe. I glanced at my watch. I was out of breath as I was ten minutes late for school!
What if the examination had already started? What if I was not allowed to sit it because I was late?
A lot of questions flooded my mind at the thought of missing the examination.
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。
I rushed towards the examination hall, my heart pounding in my chest.

After the examination, I walked out of the hall with a mixture of relief and regret.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I rushed towards the examination hall, my heart pounding in my chest. I prayed that I would still be allowed to take the examination. When I reached the door, I took a deep breath and knocked gently on it. The teacher opened the door, looking confused and a little annoyed. I stammered out an apology and explained my situation. To my relief, she let me in, but warned me not to be late again. I quickly took my seat, trying my best to calm myself down. As I looked at the test paper, my mind almost went blank. But I knew I had to focus and do my best.
After the examination, I walked out of the hall with a mixture of relief and regret. I was relieved that I had been able to take the examination, but in the meanwhile felt a little bit regretful for my habit of being late. I didn’t want to miss out on any opportunities because of my lateness or let my laziness ruin my future. So I decided then and there that I would get rid of the bad habit. I would set multiple alarms and make sure to be on time. As I walked home, still wet from the rain, I had faith in my becoming a more responsible and punctual person.
