B When I was young, flowers filled my mom's garden each spring. I never thought that Mom had done much about them behind the scenes(在幕后), until she shared her secret with me. One day last November, Mom and I spent a whole morning planting flower bulbs(球茎). I dropped one in each hole and covered it over with soil. My fingers were numb(麻木的) by the time we finished. However, the ground looked just as flower bulb empty and flat as it had been before. Then Mom told me to wait. I didn't only wait—I watched. I watched hopefully all through the winter... On the last day of April, I went outside to find the garden full of colorful flowers. Our hard work paid off. “My boy, tomorrow morning,” Mom said, “we will walk the neighborhood and leave a basket of flowers on 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 each doorstep.” “What?” I almost cried. “Are we selling our flowers?” “Of course not,” she said excitedly. “In fact, nobody will even know they' re from us. We' ll leave them at our neighbors' as a surprise. Doesn't that sound fun?” “To me, it doesn't sound fun at all” I replied unwillingly. “They' re our flowers. We should keep them for ourselves!” “Flowers are like kindness,” Mom said. “Their beauty is meant to be shared.” Early the next morning, Mom woke me up. We brought the baskets and stopped near the first house. I took one basket, set it by the doorstep and rang the bell. Then we quickly ran away, ducked behind the trees and waited. Finally, the door opened. A man came out, looking surprised. He picked up the flower basket and then smiled. Mom hugged me. I got a good feeling inside. Now I knew what she meant about beauty sharing. Icouldn't wait to get to the next house. By the time we got home, I was grinning(咧着嘴笑) from ear to ear. The garden was empty, but my heart was full. 23. How did the writer feel when he watched the garden during the winter? A. Empty. B. Excited. C. Hopeful. D. Bored. 24.

The happiness of getting close to nature. C A medical breakthrough in China is giving new hope to people with spinal cord injuries (脊髓损伤).Scientists have created a braIn-spinal chip(芯片) that allows paralyzed (瘫痪的) patients to move their legs, and even walk again. The chip, only 1 mm wide, is designed to be fitted into the brain and spinal cord. If the natural communication between the brain and muscles(肌肉) is lost, this chip becomes the bridge. When the chips work,they create a direct connection between the brain and muscles. The results have been amazing. A 34-year-old man, paralyzed after a fall, could move his legs just one day after the operation on Jamuary 8,2025. Two weeks later, he walked five meters with help. Three other patients had similar operations in February and March, all getting better within weeks. Even though the patients’ nervous systems were damaged (受损), the chips helped them walk again. This marks a big step in China's progress in medical science and it brings hope for over 3.7 million people in China. “This is just the beginning,” Jia, the lead researcher, says. “With the technology, these people may one day leave wheelchairs behind after 3 to 5 years of training.” Behind this achievement is a long journey of careful research and bold thinking. It took the researchers over 10 years to develop the chip. They tested it on animals first, and then on people. They faced many challenges, yet they never gave up. Step by step, they developed a system to reconnect the mind and body in ways once appearing only in science fiction. As the chip continues to improve, it lights a new path forward —— one built on science, shaped by care, and aimed toward a brighter future. 26. What do we know about the chips mentioned in the passage? A. They are only as wide as 2 mm. B They are fitted into the man's arms. C. They help the patients walk again. D. They improve the patients' memory 27. Which of the following meanings is suitable for the underlined word“bold”? 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 (From the dictionary)bold/bəʊld/ adj. 1. PERSON/ACTION not afraid of taking risks and making difficult decisions: He had the ability to take bold imaginative decisions. 2. COLOURS/SHAPES very strong or bright so that you notice them: Stripes are bold, bright, and fun to wear. 3. LINES/WRITING written or drawn in a very clear way: The print should be bold and easy to read. 4. PRINTED LETTERS printed in letters that are darker and thicker than ordinary printed letters: All the headings are in bold type. A.1. B.2. C.3. D.4. 28. What is the writer's main reason for writing this passage? A. To recommend a science story. B. To report a pioneer doctor in medicine. C. To compare different treatments. D. To introduce a new medical success. 29. What would be the best title of this passage? A. China's Chips Bring New Hope B. Future of China's Medical Science C. Science Fiction Changes Our Lives D Challenges for Chinese Scientists D Everyone knows that forests help fight climate change. However, a recent scientific report shows that the world lost 300,000 square kilometers of forests in 2024. That's an area about the size of Italy. According to the report, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. ▲ . This country has the largest area of rainforest in the world. Last year, it suffered from a long period of dry weather.Wildfires broke out and spread. As a result, about 25,000 square kilometers of the primary rainforest disappeared in the country. This meant fires caused 66%o of its forest loss. The second biggest cause of the world's forest loss was clearing land for farming. As people need more farmland, they keep cutting down forests every year. In 2024, the area of forest cleared for farming increased by14% worldwide. The situation was more severe in developing countries. For example, Bolivia’ s forest loss doubled in 2024. Without doubt, something must be done. Experts call on governments, businesses and people to work together before it is too late. It seems that China has set a good example. Thanks to cooperation at many levels.China had the biggest increase in forest area among all countries in 2024. That year alone, newly-planted trees inChina covered an area of nearly 45,000 square kilometers, according to a news report. If more countries start to take action like China, the earth will become a greener planet. 30. The size of Italy is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show . A. why we need forests B. where a disaster spread C. what climate change is D. how terrible forest loss was 31. Which of the following can be put in“ ▲ ” in Paragraph 2? A. Farming is a reason. B. Take Brazff for example. C. Wildfires were stopped. D. Read the report carefully. 32. What does the underlined word“severe” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Serious. B. Boring. C B alancea. D Positive. 33. What was the reason for the growth of China's forest area in 2024? A. Enough land. B. Nice weather. C. Good teamwork. D. Green technology. 34. What is the best title for the passage? A . Rainforest Became Larger B. Earmland Area Grew Rapidly C. Forest Fires Caused Pollution D. Forest Loss Worried the World E Imagine a robot. What comes to your mind first? A machine stronger than the human body? However, this same quality is now causing a big problem— it's creating tons of long-lasting e-waste that could flood our planet.What if, instead, the machines we use were designed to break down and disappear— just as living things do? For a study published in Science Advances, researchers made a robotic arm and a controller using materials from animals and plants. These materials are strong enough to work but can easily break down in a natural environment. After testıng, both parts were gone in soil within weeks. Biodegradable(可生物降解的) robotics often falls under the umbrella of soft robotics, which takes ideas from nature. “This field started in materials science and chemistry rather than traditional robots that come from mechanical (机械的) engineering.” says Florian Hartmann, a materials seientist from Germany. However, many early soft robotics models still used man-made materials that cause pollution. Wei, a scientist who studies natural materials in Hangzhou, worked together with his f rend Zhang, a robotics engineer in Shanghai, to build robots for the new study. They started with cellulose (纤维素) taken from cotton. Then, they added glycerol(甘油) to make a new material that is soft and easy to change shapes. After that they allowed it to dry so it became strong, “Cellulose is cheap and easy to work with,” says Wei. They found that the controller and the robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week of inactivity. Finally, they buried(埋) them both in a hole. Within eight weeks these two parts were almost completely gone. Wei and Zhang expect that robots like these can be used to deal with dangerous waste and then disappear naturally. They also hope that such robots can aid doctors in operations and then safely break down inside the body. However, it's important to note that the technology is still in very early stages. “If we truly want to have a biodegradable robot,” Hartmann says, “we also need to make sure its electronics and power parts are biodegradable.” 35. What is special about the robotic arni and the controller in Paragraph 2? A. They are green. B. They are hard. C. They are intelligent. D. They are affordable. 36. What is mentioned in Paragraph 5 about soft robots? A. How they work. B. Where they can be used. C. Their challenges. D. Their performance. 37. What can we learn from the passage? A Soft robots are widely used to clean up e-waste. Soft robots have to rest for a week after heavy use. C. The designing of soft robots borrows ideas from nature. D Mechanical engineering offers new ways to run soft robots. F When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn't have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn't bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap(有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected, Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’ s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say. “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown. Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pieasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult — you have to pay 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can fecl pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external(外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment. into what happens day in, day out. 38. You will most probably experience enjoyment when you . A. buy expensive shoes B order a delicious meal C. talk with friends for new ideas D. sit quietly in front of a television 39. What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 40. The words“psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to . A. attention B. interest C. ability D. knowledge 41. The writer probably agrees that ; A feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C. a. worthy life depends on luck and environment D. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life 第二节 (每小题2分，共10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。 Talking with Your Doctor Talking freely with your doctor can make you feel better and gives your doctor the information she or he needs to give you the best care.

The results have been amazing.A 34-year-old man,paralyzed after a fall,could move his legs just one day after the operation on January 8,2025.Two weeks later,he walked five meters with help.Three other patients had similar operations in February and March,all getting better within weeks.Even though the patients'nervous systems were damaged ()the chips helped them walk again.This marks a big step in China's progress in medical science and it brings hope for over 3.7 million people in China. "This is just the beginning,"Jia,the lead researcher,says."With the technology,these people mayone day leave wheelchairs behind after 3 to 5 years of training." Behind this achievement is a long journey of careful research and bold thinking.It took the researchers over 10 years to develop the chip.They tested it on animals first,and then on people.They faced many challenges,yet they never gave up.Step by step,they developed a system to reconnect the mind and body in ways once appearing only in science fiction. As the chip continues to improve,it lights a new path forward-one built on science,shaped by care,and aimed toward a brighter future. 26.What do we know about the chips mentioned in the passage? A.They are only as wide as 2 mm. B They are fitted into the man's arms. C.They help the patients walk again. D.They improve the patients'memory 27.Which of the following meanings is suitable for the underlined word"bold"? bold/bauld/adj. 1.PERSON/ACTION not afraid of taking risks and making difficult decisions: He had the ability to take bold imaginative decisions. 2.COLOURS/SHAPES very strong or bright so that you notice them: Stripes are bold.bright,and fun to wear. 3.LINES/WRITING written or drawn in a very clear way: The print should be bold and casy to redd. 4.PRINTED LETTERS printed in letters that are darker and thicker than ordinary printed letters:All the headings are in bold type. (From the dictionary) A.1. B.2. C.3. D.4. 28.What is the writer's main reason for writing this passage? A.To recommend a science story. B.To report a pioneer doctor in medicine C.To compare different treatments D.To introduce a new medical success. 29.What would be the best title of this passage? A.China's Chips Bring New Hope B.Future of China's Medical Science C.Science Fiction Changes Our Lives D Challenges for Chinese Scientists D Everyone knows that forests help fight climate change.However,a recent scientific report shows that the world lost 300,000 square kilometers of forests in 2024.That's an area about the size of Italy. According to the report,for the first time ever,fires were the biggest cause of forest loss.A.This country has the largest area of rainforest in the world.Last year,it suffered from a long period of dry weather Wildfires broke out and spread.As a result,about 25,000 square kilometers of the primary rainforest disappeared in the country.This meant fires caused 66%of its forest loss. The second biggest cause of the world's forest loss was clearing land for farming.As people need more farmland,they keep cutting down forests every year.In 2024,the area of forest cleared for farming increased by 14%worldwide.The situation was more severe in developing countries.For example,Bolivia's forest loss doubled in 2024. Without doubt,something must be done.Experts call on governments,businesses and people to work together before it is too late.It seems that China has set a good example.Thanks to cooperation at many levels. China had the biggest increase in forest area among all countries in 2024.That year alone,newly-planted trees in China covered an area of nearly 45,000 square kilometers,according to a news report.If more countries start to take action like China,the earth will become a greener planet. 30.The size of Italy is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show A.why we need forests B.where a disaster spread C.what climate change is D.how terrible forest loss was 3l.Which of the following can be put in“▲_”in Paragraph2? A.Farming is a reason. B.Take Brazrl for example. C.Wildfires were stopped. D.Read the report carefully. 32.What does the underlined word "severe"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Serious. B.Boring. C Balancea. D Positive. 33.What was the reason for the growth of China's forest area in 2024? A.Enough land. B.Nice weather. C.Good teamwork. D.Green technology. 34.What is the best title for the passage? A Rainforest Became Larger B.Earmland Area Grew Rapidly C.Forest Fires Caused Pollution D.Forest Loss Worried the World E Imagine a robot.What comes to your mind first?A machine stronger than the human body?However,this same quality is now causing a big problem-it's creating tons of long-lasting e-waste that could flood our planet. What if,instead,the machines we use were designed to break down and disappear-just as living things do? For a study published in Science Advances,researchers made a robotic arm and a controller using materials from animals and plants.These materials are strong enough to work but can easily break down in a natural environment.After testing,both parts were gone in soil within weeks. Biodegradable(可生物降解的)robotics often falls under the umbrella of soft robotics,which takes ideas from nature."This field started in materials science and chemistry rather than traditional robots that come from mechanical (engineering."says Florian Hartmann,a materials seientist from Germany.However,many early soft robotics models still used man-made materials that cause pollution. Wei,a scientist who studies natural matenals in Hangzhou,worked together with his frend Zhang,a robotics engineer in Shanghai,to build robots for the new study.They started with cellulose taken from cotton.Then,they added glycerol (to make a new material that is soft and easy to change shapes.After that they allowed it to dry so it became strong,"Cellulose is cheap and easy to work with,"says Wei.They found that the controller and the robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week of inactivity.Finally,they buried (them both in a hole.Within eight weeks these two parts were almost completely gone. Wei and Zhang expect that robots like these can be used to deal with dangerous waste and then disappear naturally.They also hope that such robots can aid doctors in operations and then safely break down inside the body. However,it's important to note that the technology is still in very early stages."If we truly want to have a biodegradable robot,"Hartmann says,"we also need to make sure its electronics and power parts are biodegradable.” 35.What is special about the robotic armi and the controller in Paragraph 2? A.They are green. B.They are hard. C.They are intelligent. D.They are affordable. 36.What is mentioned in Paragraph 5 about soft robots? A.How they work. B.Where they can be used.C.Their challenges. D.Their performance. 37.What can we learn from the passage? A Soft robots are widely used to clean up e-waste. Soft robots have to rest for a week after heavy use. C.The designing of soft robots borrows ideas.from nature. p Mechanical engineering offers new ways to run soft robots. F When considering the kind of experience that makes'life better,most people.first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure:good food,good jobs,all.the comforts that money can buy.If we couldn't have these,we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life,but by itself it doesn't bring happiness.When people think further about what makes a worthy life,they tend()to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events,other experiences that overlap()pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name:enjoyment.Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation,but also achieved something unexpected. Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity,of achievement.Playing a tennis game that improves one's ability is enjoyable,as is reading a book that shows things in a new light,as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had.None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place,but'when we think back on them afterwards,we would say."That really was fun"and wish they would happen again.After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed,and grown. ExDeriences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment,but the two feelings are quite different.For example,everybody takes pieasure in eating.However,to enjoys food is more difficult-you have to pay enough attention to a meal,so as to sense and tell its various tastes.As this example suggests,we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy,while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention.A person can fecl pleasure without any effort,as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated ()But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention.It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long,nor does it make us grow.Growth requires full attention to goals that are new,that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment,life will go on,and it can even be pleasant.But it depends heavily on luck and the external (environment.To achieve personal control over the quality of experience,however,we need to leam how to build enjoyment into what happens day in,day out. 38.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you A.buy expensive shoes B order a delicious meal C.talk with friends for new ideas D.sit quietly in front of a television 39.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A.Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B.Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C.Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D.Some experences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 40.The words "psychic energy"in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to A.attention B.interest C.ability D.knowledge 41.The writer probably agrees that A feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B.feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C.a worthy life depends on luck and environment D.pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life 第二节（每小题2分，共10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。 Talking with Your Doctor Talking freely with your doctor can make you feel better and gives your doctor the information she or he needs to give you the best care.Don't be afraid or embarrassed to discuss something that is worrying y0u.42 ●Stay positive.

It started in 2015 when a German tourist named Klaus walked into her shop.With the help of a phone app, Ms Wu 71.(patient)showed him the way to properly brew (Bilouchun,Suzhou's famous green tea. Klaus returned every day that week and 72(bring)more frierids each time. Seeing how 73(interest)they were in Chinese tea,Ms Wu started a weekly activity called"Tea Culture Saturdays".She showed foreigners 74 to brew tea with traditional methods-from choosing the water temperature to75(follow)tea-making rules.Her daughter Lily,a college student,helped translate. Soon,her tea house was always crowded with 76(visit),including students and business people from many places."I used to think foreigners wouldn't understand our tea culture,77 they love it deeply.Some of them even treat their friends with Chinese tea at home,"Ms Wu said. One of her favourite 78(moment)was when Sarah,a Canadian,gave her a notebook filled with tea notes written in both English and Chinese."This is why I keep teaching,"Ms Wu said,showing79 treasured notebook. Now,her tea house appears in travel guides as "Suzhou's cultural living room".For tourists,every cup of tea served is a window on the tea culture of this ancient city.
