The World Heritage Committee added some sites on UNESCO’s World. Heritage List, and here are four of them.
Western Ghats, India
Older than the Himalayas, Western Ghats have special landscapes. Their forests actually help create India’s monsoon (季风) rains, making them one of the best places on the Earth to study how monsoons work. Besides, it’s one of the world’s top eight biodiversity hotspots. The forests here are some of the best tropical evergreen forests, sheltering over 325 endangered species of plants and animals.
Chengjiang Fossil (化石) Site, China
This hilly site in Yunnan Province, China, contains Chengjiang’s famous fossils. They offer the most complete record of early Cambrian ocean life, perfectly preserving both hard and soft body parts of many different creatures — both with and without backbones. These fossils show how complex ocean ecosystems first formed. It’s like a window into the Earth’s early life.
Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland, Sweden
This site in eastern Sweden includes seven wooden houses, representing the peak (顶峰) of the area’s wooden-building tradition in the Middle Ages. In the 19th century, wealthy farmers built these big, fancy homes with specially decorated rooms for celebrations. Decorated by known and unknown artists, the site represents the final flowering of a long cultural tradition.
Rio de Janeiro: Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea, Brazil
This site celebrates Rio de Janeiro’s amazing urban (城市的) landscape rather than its buildings. The area includes all the breathtaking natural features that have shaped the city’s identity—from the green peaks of Tijuca National Park down to the shining coastline. These natural landmarks have deeply influenced musicians, landscape architects, and city planners throughout history, making Rio de Janeiro a constant source of artistic inspiration.
21. Which site affects the local climate?
A. Western Ghats.
B. Chengjiang Fossil Site.
C. Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland.
D. Rio de Janeiro: Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea.
22. What makes Chengjiang Fossil Site scientifically significant?
A. It is the first fossil site discovered in China.
B. It contains the oldest dinosaur fossils ever found.
C. It proves that all ancient creatures had backbones.
D. It uncovers how ocean ecosystems first developed.
23. Why is the last site listed as a World Heritage Site?
A. It attracts inspired artists globally. B. It owns unique urban landscape.
C. It has the longest history in Brazil. D. It has advanced building structures.
B
Over the years, George Frost, who is originally from London, has taught art in the Vocational Education Committee (VEC) and has had a number of exhibitions, including one at Cork Airport, which was a great success. He has also exhibited at Bishopstown Library, where he sold most of the paintings on show. George presented a painting of his to a politician and also a university.
For the elderly George, art is something he is crazy about. Art gets him up in the morning, and he often works a full day, painting in the studio in his home. His home in Cork City is full of paintings of landscapes, portraits and scenic spots, including an attractive description of Ross Castle in Killarney. His desire is to give lessons in it to senior citizens, preferably through the medium of television. His thinking is that TV art will attract a relatively big audience. And there are practical considerations. George is in good condition apart from suffering from a bad back, which makes it difficult for him to teach a class as he will have to bend down to see the artworks and give advice to students.
George is now eager to appeal (呼吁) to television producers to broadcast his art classes on TV. He suggests that the filming can take place outdoors in Crosshaven during the summer months, as he frequently paints in the sailing village, attracting the attention of passers-by to his artistic skills.
George believes he has much to offer older individuals who may feel alone and lack a sense of purpose in life. Therefore, he is enthusiastic about sharing his expertise with senior citizens, some of whom may discover a talent for painting. The focus is on developing inclusiveness among the elderly. George even does not seek financial support for his services, and he thinks that his effort will likely assist in reducing government health expenses, as it can serve as an outlet for senior citizens.
24. What does George work as?
A. An educator and a painter. B. A member of VEC.
C. A librarian in Bishopstown. D. An artist and a politician.
25. Why does George prefer to teach art through television?
A. He is too old to travel outside.
B. He wants to advertise his paintings.
C. He expects it will draw more viewers.
D. He has difficulty moving due to a bad back.
26. What is George like?
A. Honest and modest. B. Considerate and helpful.
C Humorous and generous. D. Competitive and daring.
27. What does the author mainly express?
A. Sharing is caring. B. Art heals the soul.
C. All roads lead to Rome. D. It is never too old to learn.
C
Human experts spend years roasting and tasting coffee from many places to learn about the beans. They may then combine a coffee bean from Africa with another one from South America to come up with a new mixture. However, a coffee roasting company in Helsinki, Finland is hoping that artificial intelligence (AI) can help ease the workload.
The company recently launched its “AI-conic” mixture at the Helsinki Coffee Festival, using data collected from the Internet. The mixture contains four kinds of beans, including a famous one from Brazil. It is the result of a combined project by a local AI business. Svante Hampf is the founder of the company. He and his partners wanted to do an experiment to see what mixture the computer would produce.
“We basically gave descriptions of all our coffee types and their tastes to AI and instructed it to create a different exciting mixture,” Hampf said.
The “AI-conic” mixture combined beans from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, and Guatemala. It is described as “a well-balanced mixture of sweetness and ripe fruit”. Hampf thought the combination was somewhat peculiar (奇怪的). He was surprised that the AI program chose to make the mixture out of four different kinds of beans. Most humans choose only two or three beans. However, after the first blind test of the new mixture, coffee experts including him agreed that the AI-assisted mixture was perfect. There was no need to change.
The International Coffee Organization says that the 5.6 million people in Finland drink the most coffee per person in the world. And the roasters at the company say the AI project will surely bring more things to the strong coffee culture in the country. It is a first step, and AI has plenty to offer them in the long run. Finns are particularly impressed by the coffee taste descriptions it created.
28. Why did Hampf do the experiment with AI?
A. To identify coffee beans.
B. To describe coffee types.
C. To replace human coffee experts.
D. To produce a new combination of coffee.
29. What was Hampf’s attitude to the coffee created by AI?
A. Calm. B. Satisfied.
C. Opposed. D. Indifferent.
30. What does the AI coffee mean to Finnish coffee culture?
A. A piece of cake.
B. A drinking tradition.
C. The icing on the cake.
D. The end of drinking strong coffee.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. AI Determines the Tastes of Coffee
B. AI Can Help Ease Finnish Workload
C. AI Manages to Mix Coffee in Finland
D. AI Plays a Main Role in Finnish Coffee
D
What happens to that single-use plastic bottle after you place it in a recycling bin? Most people suppose it will be really recycled. Much more likely is that the bin is only the departure point on a long journey to the other side of the world, where that bottle will, at best, be washed, dried, sorted by material, turned into bits, and then recreated into something thinner, such as packaging. Consider that a victory.
If it is packaging itself that has been chucked, it will probably end up as a dirty form of fuel, powering the production of cement (水泥). Or it may go all the way just to sit in the world, damaging the landscape, blocking rivers, entering the ocean, being swallowed by marine life and perhaps finding its way, via the global fish trade, back into your home and even into your body. It is recycling, but not as people traditionally think of it.
The broad facts of the fiction of recycling are no secret. But Alexander Clapp, a journalist, does something interesting, though not entirely attractive, in his book. He follows rubbish, travelling to some places to record the effects of consumption: villages in Indonesia buried under mountains of plastic, a ship-breaking yard in Türkiye where men tear apart the poisonous ships with hand tools, and a poor village in Ghana where people take valuable metals from the rich world’s waste computers and mobile phones.
The book also contains jaw-dropping but forgotten stories, such as that of the Khian Sea, a ship carrying a season’s worth of ash from waste incinerators (焚化炉) in Philadelphia, which set sail for the Bahamas in 1986. The ship and its poisonous load were refused entry, forcing the crew to look for other dumping sites. After 27 months of being turned away from every port, it arrived in Asia with an empty hold. Years later, the captain admitted to dumping the ash in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.
32. How does the author lead in the topic of the text?
A. By listing data.
B. By drawing comparisons.
C. By introducing plastic materials.
D. By questioning a common assumption.
33. What does the underlined word “chucked” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Thrown. B. Ranked.
C. Stored. D. Watched.
34. What does Alexander Clapp mainly show in his book?
A. A record of sorting out waste.
B. Jobs provided by waste recycling.
C. Effective waste-recycling strategies.
D. Poor methods of dealing with waste.
35. Which word best describes the captain of the ship?
A. Sensitive. B. Irresponsible.
C. Patient. D. Brave.

Kate walked hand-in-hand with her daughter, Holly, toward the restaurant, the cool evening air filled with the sound of excitement. Holly’s favorite restaurant wasn’t far, and her little feet almost skipped with joy as she looked up at her mother, her eyes wide with disbelief.
“You can order whatever you want sweetie,” Kate said, her heart filling with happiness at being able to give her daughter this special treat. Being a single mother had been difficult for Kate ever since her husband passed away. Balancing a job that hardly paid enough while taking care of Holly had been a daily struggle. Money was always tight, but Kate was determined to make sure Holly never felt like she was missing out on love or happiness. She had been saving up for this dinner for a period of time, wishing to give Holly a birthday she would always remember.
As they stepped into the restaurant, Holly’s excitement was nearly impossible to contain. She rushed ahead to the table and looked through the menu eagerly. Holly’s small hands flipped through the menu, trying to decide between all the delicious options. But when Kate looked at the price on the menu, her thoughts raced, calculating the little money she had left after saving for months just to make this night special for Holly.
Thinking of her financial struggles, Kate stepped aside to the counter, where a waiter was serving a graceful lady wearing a white coat. With fear and embarrassment, Kate tried to keep her voice down and asked the waiter if they had any discount for the dinner.
“Ma’ am, we don’t have any discount,” the waiter said softly, his voice low but firm. And then he continued serving the woman. Hearing that, Kate returned to the table and her heart was heavy, forcing a smile for Holly, who was still joyfully choosing her favorite food, unaware of the concern inside her mother.

【答案】
When Holly finished her meal, Kate went to pay the bill. Her hands trembled slightly as she handed the waiter the cash she had saved for months. The waiter took the money, but before he could give her the change, a gentle voice behind her said, “Excuse me, ma’am.” Kate turned around to see the woman in the white coat smiling at her. “I couldn’t help but overhear your conversation earlier,” the woman said. “I’d like to pay for your dinner as a birthday gift for your daughter.” Kate was too shocked to speak, her eyes filling with tears. “Thank you so much,” she managed to say. “You have no idea how much this means to us.”
Without hesitating, Kate rushed outside in search of the woman. She found her standing on the sidewalk, waiting for a taxi. “Wait!” Kate called out, running toward her. “I need to thank you properly.” The woman turned around and smiled. “It was my pleasure,” she said. “I remember what it’s like to be a single mother struggling to make ends meet. I hope this helps make your daughter’s birthday a little more special.” Kate hugged the woman tightly, grateful for her kindness. As she watched the taxi drive away, Kate realized that sometimes a small act of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s life. She vowed to pay it forward someday, just like the woman in the white coat had done for her.
