Hey, everyone, today we are talking about something you've probably seen in your garden or a corner of your room. Spiders webs. Have you ever wondered why spiders make webs? Let's find out. First, I must point out that not all spiders make webs. However, the ones that do use them for a very important reason, catching food, most spiders can run fast enough to chase down their prey, so they rely on their webs to trap insects. When an insect flies into the web, IT gets stuck in the sticky and strong silk, and that's when the spider moves in for its meal. Clever, right? But here's something interesting. Spiders also use webs for other things. Some build webs to protect their eggs. They'll create a little silk nest to keep their eggs safe from enemies and bad weather. And guess what? Some spiders even use their webs to travel. This is called ballooning. A spider will release a line of silk into the air, and the wind Carries IT away. Imagine flying through the air on a silk string. Spiders are amazing little engineers, and their web are much more than just a trap for insects. Now, when you see a web, you'll know there's more to IT than meets the eye. Hey everyone, today we are talking about something you've probably seen in your garden or a corner of your room.

What do you mean . we can use nature to help us without harming the planet? In what way? Well, for example, wind can produce electricity, which doesn't cause pollution or harmony environment, like burning coal or gas. As the sun can do something similar, right? People use sunlight to make power and don't produce any harmful gases. exactly. They are both great because they don't run out of fuel like coal, oil plus solar equipment is easy to set up in Sunny areas. Once they are set up, they don't need much . maintenance. What about water? Rivers can be used to create energy. Isn't that a good option too? Yes, water is also a good source of renewable energy. But we have to be careful if we block rivers too much. IT can affect the fish and plants that live there. right? IT could also remove water from places that needed. We have to make sure we're using nature in a way that doesn't cause damage. That's why we should use renewable energy reasonably. So we don't put too much pressure on any one resource. I wish people would realize that we don't need to harm the planet in order to survive.

People are living longer because of Better health care. yes, but that also could cause problems. There might not be enough workers to support the elders. That's right. More old people means the government might need to spend more on health care. Who is going to take care of all of them? We're already short of nursing staff. Maybe robots could help. I've read about robots that help in hospitals. Artificial intelligence makes things like that possible. IT won't solve everything. What about loneliness? All people need human contact to.

Only three days later, both cats fell from the 19th floor and died. “The owner was in great emotional pain — he’d had the cats since they were little.” said Lawyer Cui. Instead of going to court, the two parties came to a deal with Cui’s assistance: the sitter would pay a few thousand yuan in small monthly parts. Cui, 27, has practiced law in Chengdu since 2020 and went independent in 2023. At first, he handled many civil cases, but the heavy work tired him out. One late night, with his long-haired cat Ultraman quiet beside him, he had a sudden idea: “I love pets. Why not focus on legal problems about them?” This special area has few lawyers in China. Since then, Cui has taken cases like pet medical mistakes, sale lies, and accidental deaths. A 2024 Goldman Sachs report says China’s pet number first passed kids under 4. By 2030, it may be nearly twice that. As pet ownership surges in China, such disputes (纠纷) are becoming more common. Pets are increasingly viewed as family members, yet the legal system has been slow to adapt. China still lacks a dedicated animal protection law. Lawyers often use general rules from the Civil Code, which only bring light punishments. “The legal vacuum is the biggest challenge,” Cui said. “Without clear statutes, it’s difficult to protect pets or their owners effectively.” Yet Cui remains optimistic. He started a WeChat group “Pet Legal Alliance” with over 1,000 lawyers (all pet owners too). They share resources and push for better rules. Cui likes to mediate (调解) instead of long court fights. Still, he believes change is coming. “Pets are not property. They are life companions. The law should reflect that,” he said. 24. What was the result of the two cats’ case? A. It was put off for new evidence. B. It was successfully solved in court. C. The lawyer helped reach a settlement. D. The sitter delayed repaying the owner. 25. Why did lawyer Cui decide to take pet-related work? A. To follow his own heart. B. To decrease career risks. C. To gain special inspiration. D. To lower his expectations. 26. What is the main purpose of mentioning the WeChat group? A. To display the group’s daily activities. B. To stress pet topics’popularity online. C. To point out the inefficiency of lawsuits. D. To showcase a joint effort for pet legal rights. 27. What can be inferred about Cui? A. He is confused about civil cases. B. He is passionate about court fights. C. He shows indifference to challenges. D. He possesses a sharp market awareness. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是27岁的成都律师崔某专注于宠物法律问题，通过实际案例展现该领域现状，同时指出中国宠物数量增长使相关纠纷增多，但法律体系存在滞后性，最后介绍崔某为推动完善宠物法律所做的努力及对未来的展望。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Instead of going to court, the two parties came to a deal with Cui’s assistance: the sitter would pay a few thousand yuan in small monthly parts.(双方没有上法庭，而是在崔的协助下达成了协议：保姆每月支付几千元的小额款项。)”可知，两只猫的案子的结果是律师帮助达成了和解。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One late night, with his long-haired cat Ultraman quiet beside him, he had a sudden idea: “I love pets. Why not focus on legal problems about them?” This special area has few lawyers in China. Since then, Cui has taken cases like pet medical mistakes, sale lies, and accidental deaths.(一天深夜，他的长毛猫奥特曼安静地在他身边，他突然有了一个想法：“我喜欢宠物。为什么不关注他们的法律问题呢？”在中国，这个特殊领域几乎没有律师。从那以后，崔接手了宠物医疗失误、销售谎言和意外死亡等案件。)”可知，崔律师决定从事与宠物有关的工作是为了跟随自己的心。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He started a WeChat group “Pet Legal Alliance” with over 1,000 lawyers (all pet owners too). They share resources and push for better rules.(他成立了一个微信群“宠物法律联盟”，有1000多名律师（也都是宠物主人）。他们共享资源，推动更好的规则。)”可知，提到微信群的主要目的是彰显（各方）为宠物权益所做的共同努力。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One late night, with his long-haired cat Ultraman quiet beside him, he had a sudden idea: “I love pets. Why not focus on legal problems about them?” This special area has few lawyers in China. Since then, Cui has taken cases like pet medical mistakes, sale lies, and accidental deaths.(一天深夜，他的长毛猫奥特曼安静地在他身边，他突然有了一个想法：“我喜欢宠物。为什么不关注他们的法律问题呢？”在中国，这个特殊领域几乎没有律师。从那以后，崔接手了宠物医疗失误、销售谎言和意外死亡等案件。)”和最后一段中“Still, he believes change is coming. “Pets are not property. They are life companions. The law should reflect that,” he said.(不过，他相信变革即将到来。“宠物不是财产。他们是生活的伴侣。法律应该反映这一点，”他说。)”可知，崔律师发现中国专注于宠物相关法律事务的律师很少，便抓住这一市场空白转型，体现了他敏锐的市场洞察力。故选D。 C Results are essential. Working hard can feel like a waste when no desirable outcome occurs after everything. However, it’s not all about the results. While making progress toward something, we can gain something from the process, and that’s why we should not underestimate the importance of focusing on the process. Any process required to achieve something is a treasure trove (宝库) of learning opportunities. You may need to learn new skills and take in new knowledge. You may also need to work with others with different specialties, and you can learn from them to improve yourself. You will miss all these learning opportunities if you jump straight to the results. Sure, you might reap the benefits for one specific moment, but what about next time? You will have problems figuring out the “how” if you only get the “what” immediately. When you focus on one specific result, it can narrow your perspective and make you inflexible. Things can change while you are on your journey to accomplish your goal. What you initially thought you wanted may change. As a result, you will learn to be flexible and adapt to the demands needed for your desired outcome. You also become more appreciative of whatever you obtain. You know how hard it is to achieve something, so the value of what you win in the end increases and makes you more appreciative of it. Therefore, you won’t easily take the things you achieve through time and effort for granted. You focus more on the present and achieve happiness more easily. When the outcome is the only thing that matters, your mind tends to focus more on the future, leading to constant worries when you tie your happiness to an external factor, such as your desired outcome. What if you don’t attain it? That means you end up feeling disappointed and stressed. However, if you emphasize the process, you tend to focus more on the present. Getting in touch with the present can make you feel happy even before attaining the desired result. And even if you don’t get what you want, you still learn something from the process, which you can use to pursue something else. 28. What can be learned from the first paragraph? A. Result and process are both desirable. B. The impact of hard work is easily ignored. C. Progress and outcome are both measurable. D. The cost of process is usually predictable. 29. Which can best replace the underlined word “reap” in Paragraph 2? A. Confirm. B. Obtain. C. Emphasize. D. Estimate. 30. What should we do on the way to a successful goal according to the passage? A. Neglect the demanding tasks. B. Stick to a certain result. C. Adjust to the changing situation. D. Treat time and effort lightly. 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. Taking the present seriously. B. Achieving happiness step by step. C. The significance of valuing the process. D. The relationship between success and failure. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文指出结果虽重要，但过程的价值不容低估。过程蕴含学习机会，能让人灵活适应变化、专注当下收获幸福，还会让人更珍视通过努力获得的成果。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Results are essential. Working hard can feel like a waste when no desirable outcome occurs after everything. However, it’s not all about the results. While making progress toward something, we can gain something from the process, and that’s why we should not underestimate the importance of focusing on the process.(结果至关重要。当所有努力付出之后却没有得到理想的结果时，努力的过程可能会让人感觉像是白费力气。然而，这并不完全取决于结果。在朝着某个目标不断前进的过程中，我们也能从这个过程中获得一些东西，这就是为什么我们不应低估专注于过程的重要性)”可知，结果和过程都是可取的。故选A。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“You will have problems figuring out the “how” if you only get the “what” immediately.(如果只是马上了解到“结果”而没有先弄清楚“过程”，那么你就会很难理解“具体怎么做”的问题)”可知，此处“reap the benefits”与后文“get the “what””语义呼应，“benefits”（好处）对应“结果”，故“reap”应表示“获得、得到”；故划线词意思是“获得”。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Things can change while you are on your journey to accomplish your goal. What you initially thought you wanted may change. As a result, you will learn to be flexible and adapt to the demands needed for your desired outcome.(在你为实现目标而努力的过程中，情况是有可能发生变化的。你最初认为自己想要的东西可能会改变。因此，你会学会灵活应变，并适应达成理想结果所必需的条件)”可知，要达成成功的目标，我们要根据不断变化的情况进行调整。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Results are essential. Working hard can feel like a waste when no desirable outcome occurs after everything. However, it’s not all about the results. While making progress toward something, we can gain something from the process, and that’s why we should not underestimate the importance of focusing on the process.(结果至关重要。当所有努力付出之后却没有得到理想的结果时，努力的过程可能会让人感觉像是白费力气。然而，这并不完全取决于结果。在朝着某个目标不断前进的过程中，我们也能从这个过程中获得一些东西，这就是为什么我们不应低估专注于过程的重要性)”结合本文指出结果虽重要，但过程的价值不容低估。过程蕴含学习机会，能让人灵活适应变化、专注当下收获幸福，还会让人更珍视通过努力获得的成果。可知，这篇文章主要讲的是重视过程的重要性。故选C。 D Honey from Australia’s stingless “sugarbag” bees has been found to have amazing antimicrobial (杀菌的) abilities, meaning it could be used to treat infections. But what gives it such amazing power? A study led by Dr Kenya Fernandes of the University of Sydney has shown the remarkable antimicrobial qualities of honey from three species of native Australian stingless bees, commonly called “sugarbag bees”. Their honey has long been served as food and a traditional treatment for health issues like itchy skin and sores among Australia’s native communities. The research reveals that stingless bee honey keeps its infection-fighting power even after heat treatment and long-term storage. These distinctive features set it apart from honey from honeybees. With antibiotic resistance (抗生素耐药性) becoming a vital global health problem, Dr Fernandes noted, “Given the growing medical challenge of antimicrobial resistance, our findings suggest stingless bee honey could provide a valuable alternative to man-made antibiotics.” Earlier studies have shown that unlike conventional antibiotics, microbes rarely develop resistance to honey. But unlike European honeybee honey, which mainly relies on hydrogen peroxide (过氧化氢) for antimicrobial effects, Australian stingless bee honey has high levels of both hydrogen peroxide and non-peroxide activity, making it effective for health use. However, a major challenge is low yield. Each stingless beehive produces only about 0.5 litres of honey a year, making large-scale production difficult. Dr Ros Gloag explained, “While the yield is small, these hives require less maintenance than traditional beehives, allowing beekeepers to manage larger numbers.” The research team plans to further explore its non-peroxide activity. Dr Fernandes said, “While we have yet to test the honey’s against antibiotic-resistant bacteria specifically, the presence of multiple antimicrobial factors significantly reduces the possibility of resistance developing.” 32. What do we know from the second paragraph? A. How stingless bees make special honey. B. How stingless bee honey is used for food. C. Australian native communities live on honey. D. Sugarbag bees’ honey has some medical value. 33. What is special about stingless bee honey according to related study? A. It is rich in antimicrobial factors. B. It loses antimicrobial power after heating. C. It requires careful storage for the natural taste. D. It depends on antibiotic to prevent infections. 34. What can we say about the research team? A. They’ll expand the sales of the honey. B. They’ll improve traditional beehives. C. They’re optimistic about the future study. D. They’ve proved the honey’s side effect. 35. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Different Bees Having Different Potentials B. A Sweet Hope Against Antibiotic Resistance C. Three Species of Native Australian Stingless Bees D. Man-made Antibiotics Coming onto the Market Soon 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。结合文章主要说明了澳大利亚无刺蜂（糖袋蜂）蜂蜜具出色抗菌性，经热处理和长期储存仍有效，含多重抗菌因子且微生物不易耐药，为全球抗生素耐药性问题提供新替代方案，但存在产量低的挑战。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Their honey has long been served as food and a traditional treatment for health issues like itchy skin and sores among Australia’s native communities.(他们蜂蜜长期以来一直被用作食物，并且在澳大利亚的原住民群体中还被用作治疗诸如皮肤瘙痒和疮疡等健康问题的常用药物)”可知，糖袋蜂所产的蜂蜜具有一定的医疗价值。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The research reveals that stingless bee honey keeps its infection-fighting power even after heat treatment and long-term storage.(该研究表明，糖袋蜂蜂蜜即使经过加热处理和长期储存，其抗感染能力依然不变)”以及第四段中“But unlike European honeybee honey, which mainly relies on hydrogen peroxide (过氧化氢) for antimicrobial effects, Australian stingless bee honey has high levels of both hydrogen peroxide and non-peroxide activity, making it effective for health use.(但与欧洲蜜蜂所产的蜂蜜不同，后者主要依靠过氧化氢来发挥抗菌作用，而澳大利亚无刺蜂蜂蜜不仅过氧化氢含量高，还具有较强的非过氧化物活性，这使其在健康领域的应用十分有效)”可知，无刺蜂蜂蜜富含抗菌成分。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The research team plans to further explore its non-peroxide activity. Dr Fernandes said, “While we have yet to test the honey’s against antibiotic-resistant bacteria specifically, the presence of multiple antimicrobial factors significantly reduces the possibility of resistance developing.”(该研究团队计划进一步探究这种蜂蜜的非过氧化物活性。费尔南德斯博士表示：“虽然我们尚未专门针对耐药细菌对蜂蜜进行测试，但蜂蜜中存在多种抗菌成分，这显著降低了耐药性产生的可能性。”)”可推知，研究团队对未来的研究充满信心。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Honey from Australia’s stingless “sugarbag” bees has been found to have amazing antimicrobial (杀菌的) abilities, meaning it could be used to treat infections. But what gives it such amazing power?(澳大利亚无刺“糖袋蜂”所产的蜂蜜被发现具有惊人的杀菌能力，这意味着它可用于治疗感染。但究竟是什么赋予了它如此强大的杀菌能力呢？)”结合文章主要说明了澳大利亚无刺蜂（糖袋蜂）蜂蜜具出色抗菌性，经热处理和长期储存仍有效，含多重抗菌因子且微生物不易耐药，为全球抗生素耐药性问题提供新替代方案，但存在产量低的挑战。可知，B选项“一种对抗抗生素耐药性的希望之源”最符合文章标题。故选B。 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。 The Ultimate Guide to Living Room Renovation (整修) on a Budget Are you dreaming of a fresh look for your living room but worried about the costs?

So her mother decided to move to Paris and asked Li Mei if she was willing to go with them. Despite having to leave her familiar surroundings, Li Mei didn’t want to be separated from her parents. One month ago, the whole family relocated to the 13th arrondissement (区) of Paris, and Li Mei successfully enrolled in a local high school. Li Mei started her high school journey in the vibrant city of Paris. While she was eager to immerse herself in the new culture, some aspects of adapting proved to be more challenging than she had pictured in mind, especially when it came to something as personal as food. While her French classmates ate salads, Li Mei took out a package of steamed rice. During her school days, her lunch became a daily struggle. One Monday, one boy Pierre pointed at her lunch and whispered, “That looks strange.” Li Mei blushed and quietly ran out. Over the following days, she refused the Chinese dishes her mother prepared and only bought sandwiches for lunch. Although she no longer received strange looks at school, she felt a little bit ashamed hiding what she truly liked. Everything changed when her history teacher, Mr. Dupont, launched a project “Food & Culture Week”. Each student was to prepare a traditional dish and present its cultural significance. Li Mei hesitated — would anyone care about Chinese food here? But she really wanted to have a try. After much thought and careful selection, she decided to go with a food item related to traditional Chinese festivals, as festivals always seem attractive. Moreover, since some traditional Chinese festivals have gained a certain degree of popularity in France, this would make it easier for her classmates to understand and accept the dish she planned to prepare. She returned home and shared the wonderful news with her parents. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Li Mei devoted herself to preparing for the presentation. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The presentation day finally arrived. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Li Mei devoted herself to preparing for the presentation. She chose sweet dumplings, a traditional dish for Lantern Festival. Her mother taught her to make them — kneading glutinous rice flour, wrapping black sesame filling, and shaping small round balls. Li Mei also searched materials online, made a poster with pictures of sweet dumplings and Lantern Festival scenes, and wrote notes about their meaning: reunion and good wishes. She practiced introducing the dish repeatedly, adjusting her pronunciation to make it clear for classmates. The presentation day finally arrived. When Li Mei showed sweet dumplings and the poster, classmates were curious. She explained their connection with Lantern Festival, how families gather to eat them. After her speech, Pierre raised his hand, saying he once saw such dumplings in a festival event and wanted to taste. Li Mei shared her sweet dumplings, and everyone praised their taste. Many classmates said they learned about Chinese food culture. Li Mei felt proud, realizing her favorite food could bridge cultures and she no longer needed to hide her love for Chinese dishes. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了中国女孩李梅随父母移居巴黎后，因饮食习惯差异在学校遭遇文化冲突，最终通过“美食与文化周”活动重拾自信，决定向同学们展示中国传统节日美食。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“李梅全身心投入展示的准备工作。”可知，第一段可描写李梅如何为展示作准备的。 ②由第二段首句内容“展示日终于到来了。”可知，第二段可描写李梅的展示及同学们的反应。 2.续写线索：准备展示主题——学习汤圆的制作过程——准备演讲稿——向同学展示——得到称赞——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①全身心投入：devote herself to/dedicate herself to/commit herself to ②反复练习：practice repeatedly/rehearse over and over again ③称赞：praise/speak highly of/acclaim 情绪类 ①好奇的：curious/inquisitive ②感到自豪：feel proud/feel a sense of pride 【点睛】【高分句型1】She explained their connection with Lantern Festival, how families gather to eat them.

Only three days later, both cats fell from the 19th floor and died. “The owner was in great emotional pain — he’d had the cats since they were little.” said Lawyer Cui. Instead of going to court, the two parties came to a deal with Cui’s assistance: the sitter would pay a few thousand yuan in small monthly parts. Cui, 27, has practiced law in Chengdu since 2020 and went independent in 2023. At first, he handled many civil cases, but the heavy work tired him out. One late night, with his long-haired cat Ultraman quiet beside him, he had a sudden idea: “I love pets. Why not focus on legal problems about them?” This special area has few lawyers in China. Since then, Cui has taken cases like pet medical mistakes, sale lies, and accidental deaths. A 2024 Goldman Sachs report says China’s pet number first passed kids under 4. By 2030, it may be nearly twice that. As pet ownership surges in China, such disputes (纠纷) are becoming more common. Pets are increasingly viewed as family members, yet the legal system has been slow to adapt. China still lacks a dedicated animal protection law. Lawyers often use general rules from the Civil Code, which only bring light punishments. “The legal vacuum is the biggest challenge,” Cui said. “Without clear statutes, it’s difficult to protect pets or their owners effectively.” Yet Cui remains optimistic. He started a WeChat group “Pet Legal Alliance” with over 1,000 lawyers (all pet owners too). They share resources and push for better rules. Cui likes to mediate (调解) instead of long court fights. Still, he believes change is coming. “Pets are not property. They are life companions. The law should reflect that,” he said. 24. What was the result of the two cats’ case? A. It was put off for new evidence. B. It was successfully solved in court. C. The lawyer helped reach a settlement. D. The sitter delayed repaying the owner. 25. Why did lawyer Cui decide to take pet-related work? A. To follow his own heart. B. To decrease career risks. C. To gain special inspiration. D. To lower his expectations. 26. What is the main purpose of mentioning the WeChat group? A. To display the group’s daily activities. B. To stress pet topics’popularity online. C. To point out the inefficiency of lawsuits. D. To showcase a joint effort for pet legal rights. 27. What can be inferred about Cui? A. He is confused about civil cases. B. He is passionate about court fights. C. He shows indifference to challenges. D. He possesses a sharp market awareness. C Results are essential. Working hard can feel like a waste when no desirable outcome occurs after everything. However, it’s not all about the results. While making progress toward something, we can gain something from the process, and that’s why we should not underestimate the importance of focusing on the process. Any process required to achieve something is a treasure trove (宝库) of learning opportunities. You may need to learn new skills and take in new knowledge. You may also need to work with others with different specialties, and you can learn from them to improve yourself. You will miss all these learning opportunities if you jump straight to the results. Sure, you might reap the benefits for one specific moment, but what about next time? You will have problems figuring out the “how” if you only get the “what” immediately. When you focus on one specific result, it can narrow your perspective and make you inflexible. Things can change while you are on your journey to accomplish your goal. What you initially thought you wanted may change. As a result, you will learn to be flexible and adapt to the demands needed for your desired outcome. You also become more appreciative of whatever you obtain. You know how hard it is to achieve something, so the value of what you win in the end increases and makes you more appreciative of it. Therefore, you won’t easily take the things you achieve through time and effort for granted. You focus more on the present and achieve happiness more easily. When the outcome is the only thing that matters, your mind tends to focus more on the future, leading to constant worries when you tie your happiness to an external factor, such as your desired outcome. What if you don’t attain it? That means you end up feeling disappointed and stressed. However, if you emphasize the process, you tend to focus more on the present. Getting in touch with the present can make you feel happy even before attaining the desired result. And even if you don’t get what you want, you still learn something from the process, which you can use to pursue something else. 28. What can be learned from the first paragraph? A. Result and process are both desirable. B. The impact of hard work is easily ignored. C. Progress and outcome are both measurable. D. The cost of process is usually predictable. 29. Which can best replace the underlined word “reap” in Paragraph 2? A. Confirm. B. Obtain. C. Emphasize. D. Estimate. 30. What should we do on the way to a successful goal according to the passage? A Neglect the demanding tasks. B. Stick to a certain result. C. Adjust to the changing situation. D. Treat time and effort lightly. 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. Taking the present seriously. B. Achieving happiness step by step. C. The significance of valuing the process. D. The relationship between success and failure. D Honey from Australia’s stingless “sugarbag” bees has been found to have amazing antimicrobial (杀菌的) abilities, meaning it could be used to treat infections. But what gives it such amazing power? A study led by Dr Kenya Fernandes of the University of Sydney has shown the remarkable antimicrobial qualities of honey from three species of native Australian stingless bees, commonly called “sugarbag bees”. Their honey has long been served as food and a traditional treatment for health issues like itchy skin and sores among Australia’s native communities. The research reveals that stingless bee honey keeps its infection-fighting power even after heat treatment and long-term storage. These distinctive features set it apart from honey from honeybees. With antibiotic resistance (抗生素耐药性) becoming a vital global health problem, Dr Fernandes noted, “Given the growing medical challenge of antimicrobial resistance, our findings suggest stingless bee honey could provide a valuable alternative to man-made antibiotics.” Earlier studies have shown that unlike conventional antibiotics, microbes rarely develop resistance to honey. But unlike European honeybee honey, which mainly relies on hydrogen peroxide (过氧化氢) for antimicrobial effects, Australian stingless bee honey has high levels of both hydrogen peroxide and non-peroxide activity, making it effective for health use. However, a major challenge is low yield. Each stingless beehive produces only about 0.5 litres of honey a year, making large-scale production difficult. Dr Ros Gloag explained, “While the yield is small, these hives require less maintenance than traditional beehives, allowing beekeepers to manage larger numbers.” The research team plans to further explore its non-peroxide activity. Dr Fernandes said, “While we have yet to test the honey’s against antibiotic-resistant bacteria specifically, the presence of multiple antimicrobial factors significantly reduces the possibility of resistance developing.” 32. What do we know from the second paragraph? A How stingless bees make special honey. B. How stingless bee honey is used for food. C. Australian native communities live on honey. D. Sugarbag bees’ honey has some medical value. 33. What is special about stingless bee honey according to related study? A. It is rich in antimicrobial factors. B. It loses antimicrobial power after heating. C. It requires careful storage for the natural taste. D. It depends on antibiotic to prevent infections. 34. What can we say about the research team? A. They’ll expand the sales of the honey. B. They’ll improve traditional beehives. C. They’re optimistic about the future study. D. They’ve proved the honey’s side effect. 35. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Different Bees Having Different Potentials B. A Sweet Hope Against Antibiotic Resistance C. Three Species of Native Australian Stingless Bees D. Man-made Antibiotics Coming onto the Market Soon 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。 The Ultimate Guide to Living Room Renovation (整修) on a Budget Are you dreaming of a fresh look for your living room but worried about the costs?
