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.

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

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.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍一项新的基因研究证据表明,在罗马征服前的铁器时代英国,社会网络以女性为核心,存在一种罕见的从母居社会结构。这种结构与男性主导的罗马文化形成鲜明对比,该研究重塑了人们对古代性别角色的理解,具有重要意义,同时也留下了一些未解之谜。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“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.(这种以女性为中心的家庭关系可能使女性能够维持社会关系、接管财产和管理资源——这与男性主导的罗马文化形成鲜明对比,在罗马文化中,男性控制着法律、土地和治理。“在凯尔特不列颠,男性依靠妻子的家族获取土地和维持生计,这与罗马男性不同,罗马男性对资源拥有独占权。” 该研究的共同作者迈尔斯・拉塞尔强调说。)”可知,凯尔特社会允许女性对资源有更多的控制权。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“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.(考古学家长期以来怀疑女性在这些社区中占据特殊地位。凯尔特女性的坟墓中常常有珍贵的珠宝和武器,像尤利乌斯·凯撒这样的罗马作家描述了她们的独立性和战斗技能)”可知,作者提到凯撒的描述是为了支持女性具有社会影响力这一理论。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Researchers also wonder where migrating(迁移的)men originated and how they integrated into new communities.(研究人员也想知道迁移的男性来自哪里以及他们是如何融入新社区的)”可知,关于凯尔特英国中迁移的男性,他们的起源和融入方式仍不清楚。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“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.(这项研究重塑了我们对古代性别角色的认知。正如卡西迪所解释的那样:“女性并非只是被动的角色——她们是维系其社会的核心”通过将DNA分析与考古学相结合,这项研究还为探究史前文化如何平衡权力提供了难得的视角,证明在早期欧洲并不存在“放之四海而皆准”的社会结构)”可知,最后一段主要讲的是这项研究的意义。故选A项。

由上文“Visual organization makes reviewing easier.(视觉化的组织方式能让复习变得更轻松)”及下文“Use wide margins for additional notes and add symbols like arrows or boxes to highlight connections between ideas.(使用宽页边距添加额外注释,并添加箭头或方框等符号突出观点间的联系)”可知,该部分着重介绍视觉化整理笔记的具体方式。F项“Start each class on a fresh page, date it, and write only on one side.(每节课从新的一页开始,标注日期,且只写一面)”提供了视觉化整理的基础操作步骤,“fresh page”保证笔记页面的清晰与独立,“date it”有助于按时间梳理知识,“write only on one side”为后续“Use wide margins”及添加符号等视觉化手段提供了空间基础,与下文共同构建起一套完整的视觉化笔记操作流程,从页面设置的起始步骤逐步深入到具体装饰、标注技巧,符合“视觉化整理方法”的论述逻辑。故选F项。
【19题详解】
由下文“because it won’t work as well if you do.(因为如果你那样做,效果就不好了)”可知,此处需说明使用颜色标注笔记时的注意事项。A项“But don’t use too much highlighting.(但不要使用过多荧光笔标注)”中“don’t use too much”与上文“Using different colors with pens or highlighters can also help you remember better.(使用不同颜色的笔或荧光笔也能帮助你更好地记忆)”形成转折关系,在肯定颜色标注作用的同时,通过but引出使用限度的提醒,“won’t work as well”进一步解释了“使用过多荧光笔标注”的负面效果,前后逻辑连贯,从正反两方面完善了关于颜色辅助笔记这一方法的阐述。故选A项。
【20题详解】
由上文“After a class or a lecture, enrich your notes with information from textbooks or other resources. Quickly understand the main points of the material by reading titles, introductions, conclusions, and the first and last sentences of paragraphs.(课后,用课本或其他资源中的信息丰富笔记。通过阅读标题、引言、结论以及段落的首尾句快速理解材料要点)”及下文“Avoid copying full sentences directly from the text.(避免直接从文本中抄写完整句子)”可知,此段主要讲如何合理整合教材等资源到笔记中。G项“Then, restate these pieces of information in your own words when taking notes.(然后,记笔记时用自己的话重新表述这些信息)”中“restate in your own words”承接上文“enrich your notes”,明确了整合资源的正确方式,即对获取的信息进行自主转化,与“avoid copying”形成对比,强调了独立思考、内化知识的重要性,“then”起到衔接步骤的作用,使“获取信息-转化信息-整理笔记” 的流程完整且逻辑清晰。故选G项。

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。
In a small town surrounded by green hills lived a boy named Aaron. 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.
Mr. Benson smiled gently, “It’s your mindset, Success isn’t merely about crossing the finish line first; it’s about constant growth. The moment you stop learning from your setbacks, you stop moving forward. One of the fear of fear is fear of failure. He then shared the story of a man who became an overcame a serious injury to win a championship, hoping to inspire Aaron.
These hands touched Aaron deeply. That night he lay awake in bed, thinking again about Mr. Benson’s story of the tough run. He then took a deep breath, he opened the dusty shoe box under his bed, pulling out the old race plate he’d hidden. Running his fingers over their edges, he whispered to the darkness, “It’ll start over now.” At dawn, he stepped onto the track, the first rays of sun warming his shoulders like a silent promise.
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。
Determined to change, Aaron began to approach running differently.

One sunny Saturday, he joined a regional race.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Determined to change, Aaron began to approach running differently. He no longer fixated on winning but focused on daily progress, starting with analyzing each race’s weaknesses. With Mr. Benson’s help, he filmed his running posture, discovering a flawed stride that sapped energy. He practiced correcting it daily, even when blisters formed on his heels. Neighbors noticed him running at dawn, his shadow stretching long on the track as he repeated drills. One evening, an old man yelled from his porch: “Keep going, son! Speed comes from patience.” Aaron smiled, realizing setbacks were just puzzles waiting to be solved.
One sunny Saturday, he joined a regional race. The starting line buzzed with confident runners, but Aaron felt calm, eyeing the track as a path for growth, not glory. When the gun fired, he paced himself, ignoring the competitors who surged ahead. At the final lap, his legs ached, but he recalled Mr. Benson’s words: “Pain is just progress knocking.” He leaned forward, arms pumping, and crossed the finish line — not first, but with a personal best time. As cheers rose, he saw his coach holding a medal inscribed “For Courage.” Aaron touched its surface, understanding that true victory lay in surpassing yesterday’s self.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,文章讲述Aaron本是小镇跑步天才,后屡败信心受挫。教练Benson以心态决定成长的道理和他人克服挫折的故事激励他。Aaron深受触动,重拾旧赛牌,决心重新开始,于黎明踏上跑道。

①由第一段内容“Aaron决心做出改变,开始以不同的方式对待跑步。”可以预测续写这段主要内容:Aaron决心改变,不再执着输赢,专注每日进步,在教练帮助下纠正跑姿,从老人鼓励中领悟挫折本质。
②由第二段首句内容“一个阳光明媚的周六,他参加了一场地区比赛。”可以预测续写这段主要内容:Aaron参加地区赛,以平常心对待,虽未夺冠却创个人最佳,领悟到真正的胜利是超越自我。
2.续写线索:改变心态——坚持训练——参加地区赛——创个人最佳——感悟

Uganda is a great place for wildlife enthusiasts and adventure seekers. 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.

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.

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.

In a small town surrounded by green hills lived a boy named Aaron. 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.
Mr. Benson smiled gently, “It’s your mindset, Success isn’t merely about crossing the finish line first; it’s about constant growth. The moment you stop learning from your setbacks, you stop moving forward. One of the fear of fear is fear of failure. He then shared the story of a man who became an overcame a serious injury to win a championship, hoping to inspire Aaron.
These hands touched Aaron deeply. That night, he lay awake in bed, thinking again about Mr. Benson’s story of the tough run. He then took a deep breath, he opened the dusty shoe box under his bed, pulling out the old race plate he’d hidden. Running his fingers over their edges, he whispered to the darkness, “It’ll start over now.” At dawn, he stepped onto the track, the first rays of sun warming his shoulders like a silent promise.
