With its diverse landscapes and rich biodiversity, it offers some of the most unforgettable national park experiences on the continent. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is a dream destination for anyone who wants to get up close and personal with mountain gorillas (猩猩). This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the few places in the world where you can walk through thick rainforests to observe these gentle giants in their natural habitat. With the help of experienced guides you can spend an unforgettable hour watching gorillas search for food, clean each other and interact with each other. Besides gorilla tracking, the park also offers birdwatching tours and cultural experiences with the Batwa people, who once lived in the forest. Rwenzori Mountains National Park For those who love a challenge, Rwenzori Mountains National Park is the perfect destination. This park, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to Africa’s third-highest peak, Margherita Peak. The park’s rough landscape features snow-capped mountains, icy peaks, and high grasslands filled with unique plants. Hikers and climbers will find the Rwenzoris both challenging and rewarding, with breathtaking views and the chance to spot rare animals like elephants and Rwenzori black-fronted duikers (小羚羊). Kidepo Valley National Park Hidden in Uganda’s remote northern region, Kidepo Valley National Park is one of the country’s best-kept secrets. This dry grassland is a perfect home for wildlife, including the rare Rothschild’s giraffes, which are known for their graceful movements. Visitors can also spot cheetahs, ostriches, and bat-eared foxes. Despite its remote location, Kidepo offers a unique and rewarding wildlife experience, with fewer tourists and a more genuine feel. Murchison Falls National Park Murchison Falls National Park is Uganda’s largest protected area and a must-see for its famous waterfall. Here, the powerful Nile River crashes through a narrow gorge (峡谷), creating an amazing sight. The park is home to a variety of wildlife, including hippos, elephants and crocodiles. Visitors can take a boat trip along the Victoria Nile or hike along the falls for a closer look. 1. What is a unique geographical feature of Rwenzori Mountains National Park? A. Thick rainforests with rare birds. B. Snow-capped mountains and icy peaks. C. A powerful waterfall on the Nile River. D. Grasslands home to Rothschild’s giraffes. 2 In which park can visitors expect a wildlife experience with rarely crowded conditions? A. Kidepo Valley National Park. B. Murchison Falls National Park. C. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. D. Rwenzori Mountains National Park. 3. What specific activity is recommended for visitors at Murchison Falls National Park? A. Tracking foxes in dry grasslands. B. Interacting with the Batwa community. C. Taking a boat trip along the Victoria Nile. D. Joining birdwatching tours with local experts. B The journey to Lost Lake was no ordinary adventure. The sharp, rocky path near California’s San Andreas Fault was a challenge for anyone, and it was especially daunting for a group of scientists and students with diverse abilities. Led by University of Florida geologist Anita Marshall, the team included researchers with vision, hearing and mobility differences. Their mission was to explore the narrow blue lake formed by plate movements, but the tough landscape seemed difficult to overcome for some. For those unable to get through the rough landscape, drones (无人机) provided a solution. These aerial devices offered bird’s-eye views of the lake, allowing everyone to participate in the research. “Just because you can’t do it like someone else doesn’t mean you can’t do it,” Marshall explained, emphasizing the trip’s purpose to rethink traditional fieldwork methods. This innovative approach not only made the trip accessible but also created a sense of unity and creativity among the participants. The trip was organized by the International Association for Geoscience Diversity, which aims to make science more-inclusive. According to 2021 data, only 3% of STEM workers are disabled, a statistic that reflects accessibility barriers rather than a lack of ability. Western Michigan University paleontologist Taormina Lepore noted, “It’s really about empathy (同理心) as much as science,” after using AI apps to analyze rocks during the trip. This idea was shared by Jennifer Piatek, a professor from Central Connecticut State who uses a wheelchair. Piatek examined rock samples collected by others while viewing the landscape through drone recordings. Back in the laboratory, accessibility remained a significant challenge. Alyssa Paparella, a researcher at Baylor College, recalled how science buildings often lacked automatic door openers, sending a discouraging message to those with mobility differences. However, small changes can make a big difference. Venu Varanasi, an engineer from the University of Texas, introduced adjustments like removing lower shelves for wheelchair access and using high-contrast signage. These changes not only benefited disabled researchers but also improved safety for everyone. 4. What does the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Discouraging. B. Exciting. C. Boring. D. Interesting. 5. What role did drones play during the Lost Lake field trip? A. Collecting rock samples from risky areas. B. Monitoring earthquake activity in real time. C. Offering visual access to disabled participants. D. Measuring water quality for environmental studies. 6. What can we learn about Jennifer Piatek from the text? A. She collected rock samples by herself. B. Her experience proved the approach effective. C. She developed the drone recording technology. D. Her research relied on physical access to the lake. 7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text? A. To criticize the lack of accessibility in STEM fields. B. To introduce a unique scientific research journey. C. To stress that drones are essential for field research. D. To advocate inclusive practices in scientific exploration. C Lego has opened a $1 billion factory in Vietnam, aiming to power its entire operations with clean energy by 2026. Located near Ho Chi Minh City, this facility — the company’s sixth globally and second in Asia — will produce colorful plastic bricks for growing Southeast Asian markets while supporting Lego’s goal to get rid of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The factory, covering an area as large as 62 soccer fields, uses solar panels and battery storage to meet most of its energy needs. Over 12,400 solar panels will generate power, stored in large batteries for continuous use. The remaining 10%-20% of energy will come from agreements with renewable energy suppliers. Vietnam, which aims for net-zero emissions by 2050, sees the factory as a model for sustainable manufacturing (制造业). Mimi Vu, a sustainability expert in Ho Chi Minh City, praised Lego for proving large factories can balance profit and environmental responsibility. The project also benefits from Vietnam’s new 2024 policy allowing foreign companies to directly purchase clean energy from local producers. The factory uses high-tech robots to create bricks with extreme precision, while skilled workers monitor operations. Many employees received training at Lego’s China facility. To reduce environmental impact, the company planted 50,000 trees — double the number removed during construction — and replaced plastic packaging with paper bags, a first for Lego factories. Despite progress, challenges remain. Lego bricks are still made from oil-based plastic, though a third of the materials used in 2023 came from recycled or renewable sources. Niels Christiansen, Lego’s CEO, admitted sustainable alternatives are costlier but stressed the importance of investing in eco-friendly supply chains. Vietnam’s manufacturing industry, which accounts for 20% of its GDP, plans to phase out coal power by 2040. Lego’s factory fits in with this vision, showcasing how innovation and clean energy can drive industrial growth. The factory will also supply Australia and other Asian markets through a new distribution center. By prioritizing renewable energy and efficiency, Lego hopes to inspire global industries to adopt greener practices while keeping childhood creativity alive — one brick at a time. 8. What can be concluded about Lego’s energy strategy? A. It ignores the need for battery storage technology. B. It puts cost reduction ahead of environmental goals. C. It relies entirely on Vietnam’s solar energy facilities. D. It combines on-site solar power and external supplies. 9. What does the text indicate about Vietnam’s policy in 2024? A. It requires factories to plant 50,000 trees annually. B. It prioritizes coal power for manufacturing growth. C. It restricts foreign companies from using solar panels. D. It helps Lego achieve its clean energy goals more easily. 10. What challenge does Lego still face despite its progress? A. Lack of skilled workers in Vietnam. B. High costs of sustainable materials. C. Insufficient solar panels for energy needs. D. Conflicts with local tree-planting policies. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Lego’s Vietnam Factory Drives the Use of Clean Energy B. Vietnam’s Economic Growth Through Foreign Investment C. Lego’s New Factory: A Threat to Traditional Manufacturing D. Africa’s Green Boost: Clean Energy Powers Industrial Growth D New genetic(基因的)evidence shows women formed the core of social networks in Iron Age Britain（100 BCE-200 CE）before Roman conquest. A study of 57 graves(坟墓)in Dorset, England, found two-thirds of individuals shared the same mother’s family background, suggesting women stayed in their birth communities while unrelated men joined through marriage. Published in Nature, this discovery highlights a rare social structure called matrilocality, where husbands moved into wives households. “This pattern is unusual in European prehistory,” said co-author Lara Cassidy, a geneticist at Trinity College Dublin. Such female-centered family relationships likely allowed women to maintain social ties, take over property, and manage resources—a sharp contrast to male-dominated Roman culture, where men controlled law, land and governance. “Men in Celtic Britain depended on their wives’ families for land and livelihood, unlike Roman men who held exclusive power over resources.” emphasized co-author Miles Russell. Historically, matrilocal systems are uncommon. Researchers note only 8% of pre-industrial societies followed this practice. In Europe, studies of earlier periods—from Neolithic to Medieval times—typically show the opposite: women leaving home to join their husbands’ families. This makes Iron Age Britain’s Celtic society unique. Archaeologists(考古学家)long suspected women held a special position in these communities. Graves of Celtic women often contain valuable jewelry and weapons, and Roman writers like Julius Caesar described their independence and fighting skills. Though the DNA findings don’t prove women held political power, they confirm female influence over land and social networks. However, questions remain. Why did this matrilocal system develop in Britain but not in continental Celtic regions, where female graves are richer yet genetic evidence for matrilocality is weaker? Researchers also wonder where migrating(迁移的)men originated and how they integrated into new communities. The study reshapes our understanding of ancient gender roles. As Cassidy explained, “Women weren’t just passive figures—they were central to sustaining their societies.” By combining DNA analysis with archaeology, this research also offers a rare insight into how prehistoric cultures balanced power, proving there was no “one-size-fits-all” social structure in early Europe. 12. What does the text suggest about gender roles in Celtic and Roman societies? A. Celtic men held more political power than Roman men. B. Roman culture had stronger matrilocal features than Celtic. C. Celtic society allowed women more control over resources. D. Roman women had tighter social networks than Celtic women. 13. Why does the author mention Julius Caesar’s descriptions? A. To contrast Roman and Celtic writing styles. B. To present a new archaeological discovery. C. To support the theory of women’s social influence. D. To highlight Celtic women actually lacked fighting skills. 14. What can be learned about migrating men in Celtic Britain? A. Their ties to their birth communities are all lost. B. Their origins and integration methods remain unclear. C. They were primarily fighters seeking land through battle. D. They dominated resource management in their wives’ households. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The significance of the study. B. Unsolved mysteries in Celtic society. C. The methods of DNA analysis in archaeology. D. Diversity of social structures in early Europe. 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。 Taking effective notes is crucial for academic success.

From a young age, Aaron showed exceptional talent in running, winning numerous race s with ease. The people showed him with praise, calling him the fastest runner in town. They stuck his posters of his victories on shop windows and cheered his name together at every start line. But as he grew older, his winning record changed, replaced by a series of disappointing results. With each loss, his confidence was eroded, lasting a shadow of doubt over his abilities. He even started skipping morning runs, finding it hard to face the track where he came. One afternoon, after a particularly disheartening defeat where he came in last place, his coach, Mr. Benson, called him over. The sun was setting, making the track look warm, but Aaron felt nothing but cold disappointment. “Aaron, do you ever wonder what truly shapes your future?” Mr. Benson asked, looking at him steadily. Aaron hesitated. “Is it hard work? Or maybe talent?” he replied uncertainly, kicking a small stone on the groud.
