UNCOVERING TROY—Twenty Years as a UNESCO World Heritage Site Troy is one of the best-known sites in the ancient world. During the Bronze Age, nearly 3,500 years ago, this was the location of the Trojan War, the famous battle described by the ancient Greek poet Homer.

Since then, archaeologists have worked to uncover extraordinary architecture and artifacts (史前古器物) of the Mycenaean age, including the impressive tomb of the Griffin Warrior, whose riches are revealed in these pages. UNCOVERING EASTER ISLAND—An ancient site and the world’s most recent archaeological focus On this remote Pacific island, beginning about 1,000 years ago, Indigenous (土著的) people carved the enormous stone moai.

B As Wang Xueru packed her bag, sharp cramps twisting her stomach, a student silently approached. The girl placed two things into Wang’s hand: a small, folded note and a warm heat patch. Wang unfolded (打开) the paper: “If the sky is cloudy, I will be your sunshine.” In that instant, the classroom walls of Mengla No. 1 High School seemed to glow. The pain and weariness didn’t vanish, but something warmer — a shared kindness — rose to meet it. This quiet moment defined Wang’s year as a volunteer teacher in rural Yunnan. Wang, 22, graduated from the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing with degrees in Chinese literature and international economics. Yet her true passion was service. Guided by her motto — “When poor, cultivate yourself; when successful, help the world” — she led campus volunteer groups and launched online literacy projects. When she applied for the competitive “Go West” Postgraduate Education Supporting Program (only 21 chosen yearly from 50 applicants), her experience shone. She earned her place. Now, far from her coastal hometown of Quanzhou, Wang teaches in mountainous Mengla County. Her classroom holds not just textbooks, but trust. The student’s note wasn’t just comfort; it was a reflection of the connection Wang builds daily. “People might imagine rural teaching means just giving lessons,” Wang might say. “But it’s more. It’s showing up, even when it’s hard. It’s seeing their struggles, and letting them see yours. That note? That was sunshine returned.” Wang understands her role transcends (超越) academics. In Mengla, she cultivates hope — one warm patch, one quiet word of sunshine at a time. 24. Why did the girl give Wang Xueru two things? A. To thank her for excellent teaching. B. To return classroom items she lost. C. To comfort her during physical pain. D. To remind her about the weather. 25. Why was Wang Xueru selected for the “Go West” program? A. She had rich volunteer experience. B. She had top grades in economics. C. She created new teaching methods. D. She could bear difficult conditions. 26. Which of the following best describes Wang Xueru? A. Ambitious and strict. B. Caring and committed. C. Intelligent and quiet. D. Brave and self-reliant. 27. What does Wang Xueru understand rural teaching involves? A. Following school rules strictly. B. Adapting to local weather challenges. C. Focusing on personal achievements. D. More than academic lessons. C Summer mornings at Wangjiangjing town’s Kaisen (Happy) Tribe in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, feature soft light over grassland paths and the pleasant smell of lotus from nearby wetlands. Opened last October, this rural retreat (度假村) combines village landscapes with children’s play, camping, farming, and environmental education, attracting urban travelers, especially from Shanghai. “Our core philosophy is creating a boundless classroom in nature,” states Mo Xiaohua, Kaisen Tribe Operations Lead. The project embraces forest-style education and community growth, aligning (使一致) with Wangjiangjing’s vision for canal-themed experiential learning and cultural tourism as a new family destination. The Grand Canal, which long shaped the town’s identity, saw its bustling past fade with modernization. Renewed national focus on canal preservation drives local efforts to repurpose idle resources. Guided by green development principles, the project revived an abandoned village. Designers integrated playgrounds, fishponds, farms, and paddies into existing forests, fields, and ponds, achieving ecological transformation. This draws up to 10,000 visitors on peak days, with plans for more uniquely themed hotel rooms. Kaisen Tribe is part of the Jiaxing Grand Canal Culture & Tourism Resort. “The goal is a living community, not an untouchable museum,” says Shen Tao, a resort official. Since 2018, the resort has pursued “heritage-first” development, rooted in its UNESCO status — including the Ming Dynasty Changhong Bridge. Eleven large lakes shape the classic Jiangnan water town landscape and traditions like lotus cultivation. Historic repurposing is key: A 1960s granary (谷仓) complex now houses a café and cultural space, preserving its architecture. Another granary hosts a digital hub with VR and performances. A reconstructed steam locomotive （火车头） from the historic Suzhou-Jiaxing Railway (1936-1944) serves as a visitor center and patriotic site near wartime bunkers (碉堡). Unique attractions like reptile museums, concrete pipe rooms, rice field tours, and animal encounters appeal strongly to younger travelers seeking social media moments. Future plans include expanding night tourism, enhancing digital integration, and developing a youth soccer training base for sports tourism. 28. What is Kaisen Tribe’s core educational concept? A. Urban community growth centers. B. Tech-driven immersive learning experiences. C. Traditional farming restoration. D. Nature-based limitless learning. 29. Which of the following best explain “idling resources” underlined in paragraph 3? A. Polluted water ecosystems. B. Abandoned heritage structures. C. Forgotten traditional crafts. D. Vast fields and ponds. 30. What can be inferred about the historical sites? A. Bunkers prevent cultural exchange. B. Changhong Bridge needs UNESCO approval. C. Old buildings get new uses while keeping history. D. Granaries focus more on storage than new tech. 31. What key principle drives Kaisen Tribe’s success? A. Innovation through heritage revival. B. Commercial interests drive sustainability. C. Tourist numbers define cultural value. D. Technology replaces traditional experiences. D Healthcare organizations face big problems: costs are rising, but income is growing slowly. Cloud technology offers a solution by replacing outdated systems, improving efficiency, and enhancing care. Key benefits include helping doctors make better decisions by giving them faster access to patient information, lowering costs by making operations run smoother — which is crucial when government payments are low — and providing stronger security to protect patient data. As Dr. Michelle Flemmings from Oracle notes, older computer systems often made work harder with repetitive tasks, while the cloud makes accessing data easier and reduces doctors’ workload. Adding AI makes the cloud even more powerful. AI acts like a smart helper for doctors. Flemmings compares it to having a top medical expert by your side. AI helps assess patient risks, suggests best practices, and finds vital information in health records instantly. This teamwork speeds up tasks, like finding patients who qualify for clinical trials during regular visits — opportunities often missed before. Also, AI-powered patient websites offer personalized services like online booking, meeting the high demand for digital options. Cloud uses are growing fast: reducing missed appointments, automating complex data analysis, spotting security risks, and simplifying administration tasks. However, moving to the cloud has challenges, mainly cost and security worries. Flemmings advises starting small with pilot projects to fix specific problems, especially for smaller hospitals. Importantly, cloud security is often better than old systems, with AI boosting threat detection. As Amar Nagaram from IU Health highlights, the cloud simplifies tech systems and improves teamwork. Ultimately, the cloud is changing healthcare’s future. It cuts costs and tech burdens while speeding up innovation. Secure cloud tools let patients access care remotely, beyond the clinic. Nagaram states that without cloud tech, healthcare groups can’t compete. While moving needs careful planning, progress is happening. For example, IU Health uses AI to prioritize urgent patient help requests. Cloud technology is building a foundation for healthcare focused on patients, quality, and constant innovation. 32. What are the primary pressures driving healthcare towards cloud adoption? A. Demand for better patient experiences. B. Shortage of physical data storage space. C. Rising costs and slowing revenue growth. D. Government requirements for new technology. 33. How is AI described when assisting a doctor? A. A clinical support tool. B. A top consultant nearby. C. A real-time data processor. D. An independent advisor. 34. What is the recommended strategy for adopting cloud technology? A. Gradual launch starting small. B. Ignoring cost considerations. C. Taking full-system migration. D. Outsourcing all IT operations. 35. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Rise of Digital Patient Portals B. The AI Revolution in Medical Diagnosis C. Cutting Healthcare Costs Through Technology D. Revolutionizing Healthcare Through Cloud Technology 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。 Kayaking (皮划艇) is not just reserved for remote lakes and serene rivers; you can also embark on exciting urban adventures and explore the hidden waterways of your city with a foldable kayak.

The blazing sun on our faces had never felt so good — school was over! Our minds were ablaze with visions of June, July, and August. June meant the stream below our house was swollen from spring melt. In moments, we changed into shorts and t-shirts and headed to the nearby wood factory. Ted boldly bargained for two abandoned wood pallets (托盘). Earlier, we’d brought home eight empty milk bags from the school’s cooler unit — rectangular bags holding several gallons each, with rubber spouts (橡胶嘴). Four inflated milk bags, tied off, fitted perfectly between a pallet’s slats: instant raft! It took all afternoon to build two rafts and part of the evening to scavenge (（在废弃物中）寻找可用之物) for poles. We planned our first voyage for the next day, the first full day of summer. After a rushed breakfast, Mom letting us take sandwiches, we dragged the pallets through the yard and up the dirt track beside the swollen creek, friends tagging along. Ted, ten that summer, wild and funny, was the neighborhood’s spark. I was nine. Sweating in the heat and humidity, we alternated between dragging and carrying the heavy rafts — a kid on each corner — kicking up dust that clung to our sweat during the arduous mile-long trek upstream. Inspired by Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki voyage, we were determined adventurers. Relief washed over us and our friends as we finally plunked the rafts down in the long grass by the water’s edge. We invited everyone, especially those who helped carry, to join the ride. Six or seven kids watched warily. The roaring current didn’t dampen Ted’s boundless optimism, but his offer of a “ride-of-a-lifetime” was silently declined. Honestly, I doubted the rafts would even float. As I stepped into the water and pulled the pallet, a friend handed me my pole. I knelt down, and the raft floated — barely. Ted, beside me, gave a mighty push with his pole. “Stand up on it!” he shouted above the tumult (喧哗). “Let’s go!” I stood. In that moment, Ted was like a great adventurer braving a storm. Everything went smoothly for the first half hour. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150词左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 However, the current seized us, rolling and rocking. “Swim to safety!” Ted yelled, poling crazily towards the bank. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。It's terrible.

He became very concerned and decided to take action. After noa returned home with his family, he had a talk with his parents. He told them he wanted to help month butterflies. His parents went surprised. They knew their son cares about wildlife. They told nowhere they'd be there for him with his parents help, the boy created monarch defenders. It's an organization that aims to protect monarch butterflies. IT tries to raise awareness about issues impacting the species, such as loss of habitat, pollution and climate change on his website, nowhere encourages others to take small, actionable steps, for example, planting a monarch butterfly habitat in their yard. I hope that we all can follow now's lead and make an effort to save this species. Good morning, everyone. In my class presentation today, i'd like to talk about my role model.
