B In the early 1800s,a young girl named Mary Anning from Lyme Regis,England,began scouring the dangerous cliffs along the English Channel.Her family was poor,and they sold fossils to tourists to make a living.Little did Mary know that her sharp eyes and patience would soon revolutionize paleontology(古生物学). At just twelve years old,Mary made a breathtaking discovery:the first complete skeleton of an Ichthyosaur ()an ancient marine reptile.Despite having no formal education and facing prejudice as a woman in science,she continued her search with relentless determination. Over the years,she uncovered the first nearly complete Plesiosaurus (and one of the first Pterodactyls (outside Germany.Each discovery brought new insights into prehistoric life. What made Mary extraordinary was not just her talent for finding fossils,but also her ability to accurately reconstruct and understand these ancient creatures.She taught herself anatomy(解剖学)，geology,.and scientific illustration-一rare achievements for a woman of her time.Famous scientists and wealthy collectors from across Europe often visited her shop to acquire specimens and seek her advice,though they rarely gave her public credit. Mary Anning's life was one of both struggle and brilliance.Her findings provided key evidence for the theory of extinction and helped lay the groundwork for Charles Darwin's ideas on evolution.Though she rarely received recognition during her lifetime,today she is celebrated as a pioneering fossil hunter who unlocked secrets buried for millions of years- all starting with a young girl and her hammer on a stormy beach. 24.Why did Mary Anning begin searching the cliffs along the English Channel? A.To prove her new theory about evolution. B.To help her family earn money. C.To become a famous scientist. D.To study the anatomy of ancient creatures. 25.What does the underlined word "relentless"in paragraph 2 mean? A.persistent B.optimistic C.occasional D.flexible 26.What can be inferred about famous scientists and collectors who visited Mary Anning? A.They offered her a formal education in paleontology. B.They often acknowledged her contribution publicly. C.They valued her knowledge but did not give her due credit D.They discouraged her from continuing her fossil hunting. 英语试题卷第4页共10页 27.What is the main purpose of the article? A.To explain the history of fossil hunting in England B.To describe the life and achievements of Mary Anning. C.To discuss the gender inequality in 19th-century science. D.To introduce the discoveries of ancient marine reptiles. C As clocks spring forward and fall back each year across much of the United States,many people experience more than just a temporary disruption in sleep.A growing body of evidence suggests that these biannual time changes may have long-term negative effects on public health.A recent study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America indicates that making standard time permanent could help reduce rates of obesity and stroke. "Our work reveals that there may be greater health benefits on a population level if we switch to a permanent standard time,"says study co-author Lara Weed,a bioengineering Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University. Previous research associates time shifts with increased risks of heart attacks,car accidents, and disruptions in sleep and alertness.Major medical groups,including the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine,oppose the practice,emphasizing that standard time's morning light helps reduce these issues.Yet,few studies had previously explored the long-term health impacts of maintaining a single time system year-round. To address this gap,Weed and her graduate advisor Jamie M.Zeitzer investigated how the body's circadian(生理节奏的)system is affected by the two time systems used in most U.S.states.The researchers developed computer models to simulate how light exposure influences circadian rhythms and health under three scenarios:permanent standard time, permanent daylight saving time,and the current system of switching twice a year.They integrated these simulations with a mathematical model of the circadian clock,accounting for geographic variables like latitude and longitude.They then connected their estimates of yearly 'circadian burden"the time the body needs to realign itself with external time-with county- level health data from the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The results demonstrated that under permanent standard time,which offers more morning light,most people would experience fewer abrupt disruptions to their circadian rhythms.The study estimates that adopting year-round standard time could lower the U.S.obesity rate by nearly 0.8%-equivalent to about 2.6 million fewer cases nationwide-and reduce stroke prevalence by approximately 0.09%,or more than 300,000 fewer cases. 28.What is one finding of the new study published in PNAS? A.Switching time twice a year improves sleep quality. B.Permanent standard time may lower obesity and stroke rates. C.Daylight saving time increases morning light exposure. D.Time changes have no long-term health effects. 29.What do the major medical groups advocate? A.Continuing the current system of time switching. B.Adopting permanent daylight saving time. C.Using standard time for its morning light benefits. D.Ignoring the impact of time changes on health. 英语试题卷第5页共10页 30.What is the author's attitude towards the current time-change practice? A.Supportive. B.Neutral. C.Indifferent. D.Negative. 31.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Why Permanent Standard Time May Be Better for Health B.The History of Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. C.How Sleep Affects Heart Health and Accidents D.The Role of Morning Light in Reducing Obesity D CATL,the world's largest battery manufacturer for electric vehicles,has recently announced a series of technological breakthroughs that promise to enhance the performance and competitiveness of electric cars.The Chinese company has successfully developed new generation batteries that are not only more affordable and lighter but also feature remarkably faster charging capabilities.These advanced batteries demonstrate superior performance in cold weather conditions and provide substantially extended driving range(续航里程)， addressing some of the most common concerns among potential electric vehicle consumers. The most notable innovation involves a revolutionary auxiliary battery system that completely eliminates graphite (components.This cutting-edge technology achieves an impressive 60%increase in energy storage capacity within the same physical space,offering automakers the flexibility to either significantly extend the vehicle's driving distance or create additional cabin space for passengers.The auxiliary system also serves as a reliable backup power source,ensuring continuous operation of critical systems like autonomous driving features that require uninterrupted power supply.However,these graphite-free batteries do present certain limitations,including comparatively slower charging rates and reduced overall lifespan,which is why they are specifically designed for supplementary use during extended journeys rather than as primary power sources. Complementing these developments,CATL has introduced an ultra-fast charging solution that can restore 520 kilometers of driving range in just five minutes.Furthermore,the company has pioneered sodium-ion()battery technology that maintains over 90%of its charge capacity even in extreme cold temperatures of -40C,making these batteries particularly suitable for regions with harsh winter conditions where conventional batteries typically underperform.The initial application of these sodium-ion batteries will be in freight trucks operating in northern China's coldest regions. To validate the safety and reliability of their new batteries,CATL conducted comprehensive stress tests,demonstrating that even when subjected to severe damage including nail penetration()and power saw cutting,the batteries neither caught fire nor exploded,providing strong evidence of their safety under extreme conditions.Interestingly, just five years ago,the company had argued such extreme tests were unrealistic. 32.What can we know about CATL's new generation batteries from the first paragraph? A.They mainly focus on improving battery appearance design. B.They aim to solve common concerns of electric vehicles. C.They are specifically designed for luxury car models only. D.They sacrifice performance for lower production costs. 英语试题卷第6页共10页 33.According to the passage,what is the main advantage of the auxiliary battery? A.It uses cheaper materials to reduce production costs. B.It charges significantly faster than conventional batteries. C.It provides 60%more energy storage in the same space. D.It lasts much longer than traditional battery systems. 34.What makes sodium-ion batteries suitable for cold regions? A.Their ability to maintain charge capacity in extreme cold. B.Their faster charging speed in low temperatures. C.Their lower production cost compared to other batteries. D.Their smaller size that fits various vehicle models. 35.What can be inferred from the safety tests? A.CATL's batteries are completely indestructible in accidents. B.The company has made significant progress in battery safety. C.All electric car batteries must pass such extreme tests. D.Traditional batteries are safer than the new batteries. 第二节（共5个小题；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。 Many people believe that being smart is about knowing more facts or having a perfect memory.However,the real difference lies in how smart people think and handle problems. 36. Here are five key ways they do things differently. First,smart people don't fight to be right.When someone disagrees with them,they don't argue or get mad.Instead,they ask real questions to understand the other person's perspective. 37. They are trying to learn,not to win. Second,they see the big picture.While most people get stuck on small problems,smart people zoom out like a camera.They don't see one failure as proof they're not good enough. 38. Third,they only worry about what they can change.Smart people have a simple rule:if they can't control it,they don't think about it.This saves them energy that they can use to actually solve problems. Fourth,they use quiet as a tool.39. They think before they speak and listen more than they talk.This makes their words more carefully chosen and therefore more valuable. Fifth,they pause instead of reacting.When something bothers them,they take a breath and ask themselves:"Is this worth getting upset about?What's the best way to handle this?" 40. Remember,you don't need to be the loudest person or know everything.You just need to think differently than most people. A.They see it as information that can help them improve. B.They believe that immediate action is always better than no action. C.They say things like"Help me understand why you think that." D.They are comfortable with quiet moments in conversation E.You don't need straight A's to think like smart people do. F.This pause helps them respond wisely rather than emotionally. G.They rush to fill silent moments in conversations. 英语试题卷第7页共10页 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（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。 As an only child,Nicole Renae often felt lonely in her youth.However,her tenth birthday brought a joyful change when her grandmother 41 her with an adorable puppy named Chloe.
