B Soon after Mr.&Mrs.Bacchus started farming their little patch of land,they faced a major problem-a plague of birds fed on their precious crops.Then,a man stopped on the road outside their house,and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property.Afterwards,he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds,they should instead learn to live alongside them,and Maraksacha Reserve was born. Today,the couple credit this man,the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa,with changing their lives,and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region. Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador,with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups.Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations,which helps explain why it's among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity.The country is home to over 1,600 bird species-nearly double the number found 试卷第2页 in all of Europe-within an area just slightly larger than the UK. As the business of birding grows,more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves,benefiting not just the birds,but the country's economy too.One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the long-wattled umbrellabird.On his land near Recinto,landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation,replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists-work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. "Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming,but that wasn't our only motivation,"says Luis Jr., Ajila's son."We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird,but all the unique wildlife here,safeguarding them for future generations." Since 2005,Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve.At first,things didn't go to plan:it took a month for the first visitor to arrive,and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour.Since then, however,thousands of people have made the pilgrimage."I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades,and finally watched the wildlife-and the people who visit-flourish,"Angel Paz says. 24.What advice did the photographer give to the couple? A.Photographing the birds. B.Coexisting with the birds C.Protecting their precious crops. D.Taking care of their property. 25.What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A.How Ecuador is geographically unique.B.What distinguishes Ecuador's biodiversity. C.What makes Ecuador a birding destination.D.How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador. 26.What have the Ajila family achieved? A.Helping other farmers shake off poverty.B.Combining profitability with sustainability. C.Applying new technology in modern farming.D.Changing the landscapes of their residential areas. 27.What can we learn from Angel Paz's story? A.Well begun is half done. B.It takes time to bear fruit. C.The early bird catches the worm.D.The secret to success is adaptability. C Motorcyclists seeking to solidify their reputation as risk-takers could do worse than book a session on a Wall of Death.These are small circular velodromes(圆形赛车t场)where the track almost stands at an angle of 90 to Earth's surface.What drives these brave souls up the wall is their speed.At around 50 kph,the forces acting on them are strong enough to counterbalance gravity's pull,and keep them pushed outward. Now a group of scientists have tracked down one more need for such equipment.In a paper in Royal Society Open Science,they propose that astronauts living on NASA's planned lunar base could run on the track to prevent their bodies from wasting away(变得消瘦、衰弱)under the Moon's reduced gravitational pull. In low-gravity environments,muscle decreases in strength,bone becomes easily broken and fitness and motor abilities decline.Even exercise,made less effective by weightlessness,struggles to counteract such effects. Alberto Minetti from the University of Milan wondered if running in a Wall of Death might provide a workout capable of limiting the body's decline.To test it he rented a 10-metre-wide Wall of Death and called in two brave volunteers. His team tied the volunteers,a man and a woman,to ropes hanging from a crane above the track.The ,共5页 ropes relieved the volunteers of five-sixths of their body weight,in effect mirroring the Moon's gravity.After some practice rounds,the volunteers could run parallel to the ground at speeds averaging around 20 kph, without assistance. Dr Minetti says such motion can generate a force on the body similar to the effect of gravity on Earth. According to his calculations,running this way may be enough to battle the negative effects of lunar life.NASA may not even need to find extra room:he suggests that if the lunar shelters for the Artemis Base Camp were built in a circular design,astronauts could simply go for a jog around the inside walls.In principle it is"not a completely crazy idea,"says Kevin Fong,a doctor and specialist in space medicine at University College London.But,he adds,the limited medical care available in space means he would be nervous about astronauts running at speed. 28.Why is a Wall of Death mentioned in paragraph 1? A.To highlight its great forces. B.To stress its tough challenge. C.To imply its another good use. D.To show its global popularity 29.What was the purpose of Dr Minetti's experiment? A.To explore exercises for astronauts in space. B.To find approaches to cycling in a Wall of Death. C.To assess the benefits of workouts on the Moon. D.To measure the impact of gravity on human health. 30.What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A.The method used to create lunar gravity. B.The process for selecting brave volunteers. C.The speed required for the body's movement. D.The cooperation needed in low-gravity conditions. 31.What is Fong's attitude towards Dr Minett's suggestion? A.He is optimistic about it. B.He does not care about it. C.He is strongly opposed to it. D.He does not fully support it. D Researchers at ETH Zurich have discovered that pupil()size continuously changes during sleep,reflecting shifts in brain activity.This breakthrough could aid in identifying sleep disorders and brain conditions like Alzheimer's. Led by Sarah Meissner and Nicole Wenderoth,the research team challenged the long-held belief that the brain remains in a low-activation state during sleep.Their study,published in Nature Communications,reveals frequent changes in pupil size--from rapid shifts within seconds to gradual changes over minutes.These variations correlate with activation levels in brain regions adjusting sleep-wake cycles. To measure pupil dynamics,scientists developed a novel method:keeping sleepers'eyes open using a medical-grade transparent glue."We worried people couldn't sleep with open eyes.but in darkness,most forgot their eyes were open,"explained lead author Manuel Carro Dominguez.The team tracked pupil changes alongside brainwave patterns,finding connections to important sleep processes like memory-boosting brain waves and deep-sleep waves. Interestingly,pupils also responded to sounds differently depending on brain activation levels at the moment. Future studies will test whether the locus coeruleus--a tiny area in the brain that controls awakening-directly drives these pupil changes,Researchers plan to apply drugs targeting this area to observe effects on pupil dynamics."If proven,it could explain how activation levels influence sleep quality and functions,"said neuroscientist Caroline Lustenberger. 试卷第3 This discovery holds promise for medical applications.Pupil monitoring might help doctors find sleep problems,stress-related conditions,or early signs of memory loss by detecting abnormal brain activity.The team aims to adapt the technology for hospital use,such as tracking unconscious patients'brain activity or improving sleep disorder assessments."The pupil acts like a window into the sleeping brain,"Lustenberger noted, suggesting it could innovate upon both neuroscience and sleep medicine. By transforming a simple eye observation into a brain activity-detector,this research bridges fundamental science and practical healthcare solutions.As next-generation devices make pupil tracking more accessible,sleep labs worldwide may soon adopt this approach to unlock deeper insights into the mysteries of the sleeping mind. 32.What common idea about sleep does the ETH Zurich research question? A.That brain activity shifts with sleep cycles.B.That sleep involves reduced brain activity. C.That pupil size only changes when awake.D.That brain remains inactive during the night. 33.How did the researchers conduct their study? A.By comparing sleepers'various brain waves. B.By using a glue to keep sleepers'eyes open. C.By linking the pupil changes to the brain function.D.By recording the state of sleepers'pupils and brain. 34.Why might pupil monitoring be important in medicine? A.It can cure sleep disorders, B.It can prevent memory loss. C.It may transform healthcare. D.It may increase brain activity. 35.What is the author's attitude toward the research? A.Optimistic and forward-looking, B.Mindful and reserved. C.Enthusiastic and ground-breaking. D.Critical and doubtful. 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。 In 2007,former Microsoft employee Linda Stone noticed something strange happening every time she sat down to answer emails.36."I would inhale (in anticipation,but I wouldn't exhale because so many emails would be streaming in,"Stone said in an interview. 37.She asked dozens of friends and coworkers to sit at her computer answering emails while she monitored their pulse and heart rate variability.Of those participants,80%had what Stone coined "email or screen area"-shallow or suspended breathing while working on a screen. "38 ,"said science journalist James Nestor,the author of the bestselling book Breath:The New Science of a Lost Art,which records his investigation into the power of breath.He explained that humans have lost touch with natural breathing patterns as we spend much of the day hunched (over our screens and devices."If you are hunched over,you can't take that soft,slow,deep breath,"Nestor said. Breathing properly has enormous positive impacts on our health and well-being.Slow breathing lowers our stress levels,increases focus,regulates our emotions and even helps us make better decisions.39 Nestor suggests the simple exercise of breathing in through your nose for five to six seconds and out through your nose for five to six seconds."As you inhale,you feel that slight expansion of that abdominal region,and then as you continue inhaling,try to lift that breath up to your chest area,"Nestor said."Breathe this way for two minutes a day,and that's going to make a difference."Stone found that learning an instrument helped her maintain good posture and breathing.40.She also took ballroom dancing lessons,which she said had a similar effect. ,共5页 A.She kept holding her breath B.These tasks resulted in shallow chest breathing C.She found few people around her had breathing problems D.Stone wondered how common this was and set out to investigate E.Poor breathing is what you see when you look at 90%of the population F.This in turn allowed her to form better breathing habits-even while in front of a screen G.Luckily,Nestor and Stone feel confident that it's possible to retrain our body to breathe well 第三部分语言运用（共三节，满分40分） 第一节完形填空（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Heroes walk among us every day,just waiting for chances to do something kind for others.
