A 12-year-old girl, Eleanor Woods, has created a green backpack that filters (过滤) out air pollution. Her innovative bag won the award of the “Backpack to the Future” competition.
The competition was launched to encourage students to combine an interest in fashion with a career in science, technology, engineering or maths.
Powered by green energy from solar power and a dynamo — a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy — the backpack filters polluted air before fanning out cleaner air nearby.
Air pollution was always Eleanor’s concern.Meanwhile, spending a lot of time with her asthmatic (患哮喘病的) mum, Eleanor especially focused on how pollution affects a person’s health and the spread of diseases.“We have an air filter at home because my mum has mild asthma.But what if she wants to go out? It would be inconvenient and dangerous! My Breathe Better Backpack is about keeping those like my mother safe using an air filter.It looks cool and will help get them outside and fight off colds,” Eleanor said.
The girl added, “My generation has really realised pollution, and we have lessons on it at school.This is another reason why I designed this, because we need to do something.”
The Breathe Better Backpack came under the spotlight in the competition.Stratton Smith, one of the judges of the competition, said the impact of Eleanor’s design would be far-reaching.“If just a few people start using it, it can be really good for the planet,” he explained.
24.What do we know about the backpack?
A.It collects polluted air. B.It is powered by wind.
C.It is of practical use. D.It sells well at present.
25.What inspired Eleanor Woods to design the backpack?
A.The award of the competition. B.High expenses of air filters.
C.Stratton Smith’s behaviour. D.Her concern for air pollution.
26.Who will most probably benefit from the backpack?
A.Students living in poverty. B.Those suffering from asthma.
C.People working in an open way. D.Judges worried about pollution.
27.Which of the following can best describe Eleanor Woods?
A.Humorous and modest. B.Ambitious and selfless.
C.Confident and fearless. D.Creative and considerate.
C
More than half of the world’s largest lakes have lost significant amounts of water over the last three decades, and roughly one-quarter of the world’s population lives in the basin of a drying lake, according to a new study by a team of international scientists, which pins the blame largely on climate change and excessive(过度的)water use.
While lakes cover only around 3% of the planet, they hold nearly 90% of its liquid surface freshwater and are primary sources of drinking water, irrigation and power, and they provide vital habitats(栖息地) for animals and plants.
Across the world, the most significant lakes are seeing sharp declines. The Colorado River’s Lake Mead in Southwest US has shrunk dramatically due to a megadrought(大干旱) and decades of overuse. The Caspian Sea, between Asia and Europe the world’s largest inland body of water has long been declining.
The shrinking of many lakes has been well documented by environmental groups, but the reasons behind it have been hardly examined, said Fangfang Yao, the study’s lead author and a visiting scholar at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder.
The researchers used satellite measurements of nearly 2,000 of the world’s largest lakes, which together represent 95% of Earth’s total lake water storage. Examining more than 250,000 satellite images spanning from 1992 to 2020, along with climate models, they were able to reconstruct the history of the lakes going back decades.
“The results were staggering,” Yao said. “It’s a little scary to see how many freshwater systems are unable to store as much water as they used to.”
“As many parts of the world become hotter and drier, lakes must be managed properly. Otherwise climate change and human activities can lead to drying sooner than we think,” Yao added.
28.What might be the author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph?
A.To broaden readers’ horizons.
B.To encourage readers to protect wildlife.
C.To lighten readers’ worries over water shortage.
D.To show shrinkage of lakes should be taken seriously.
29.What has environmental groups ignored?
A.The recording of shrinking lakes.
B.The influence of water shortage.
C.Causes of the shrinkage of many lakes.
D.Measures to stop the shrinkage of lakes.
30.What can we learn about the new study from Paragraph 5?
A.It’s scientifically-grounded. B.It’s much-debated.
C.It’s commercially-successful. D.It’s partially-acceptable.
31.Which does the underlined word “staggering” probably mean in Paragraph 6?
A.Puzzling. B.Shocking. C.Inspiring. D.Amazing.
D
Here’s a quick quiz. Person A does a favor for you. Person B asks you to do a favor for him. Who do you tend to like more? Surprisingly, the answer is Person B.This quirk (怪癖) of human nature is known as the Ben Franklin Effect.
Benjamin Franklin came across the phenomenon in 1736 when serving as a clerk to the Pennsylvania Assembly. A powerful member didn’t care for Franklin and threatened to make life miserable for him. What to do? Instead of winning him over with sweet talk, Franklin asked if he could borrow a rare and valuable book the man owned. This request altered the man’s attitude and paved the way for their friendship. Franklin’s takeaway: “He that has once done you a kindness will be ready to do you another, than he whom you yourself have obliged.”
Several studies have confirmed this. But how can we explain the Ben Franklin Effect? Some psychologists refer to cognitive dissonance (失调). It’s difficult to hold two contradictory thoughts at the same time. It makes us uncomfortable. We resolve this tension by changing our mind. “I don’t like Joe, but I am doing him a favor,” we might think. “So maybe I do like him.”
While cognitive dissonance explains a lot, it alone doesn’t explain the Ben Franklin Effect. One 2015 study found that it was, rather, the affiliative (亲和的) motive that the requests convey. That is, we humans want to maintain good relations with other humans, and one way to achieve this is by doing favors for others. This explains a lot about altruistic behavior. We like being useful and, by extension, we like those who give us the opportunity to do so. It’s in our genes.
Yet there is much we still don’t know about the Ben Franklin Effect. Does it apply equally across cultures? Is there a point beyond which asking a favor makes you less, not more likable? Asking to borrow a book is one thing; asking to borrow a car is another.
32.Why does the author mention Benjamin Franklin’s experience?
A.To illustrate a dilemma in making choices. B.To suggest a way of striking up friendships.
C.To stress the importance of strategic requests. D.To introduce the origin of the Ben Franklin Effect.
33.What is a reason for people’s tendency to like those asking for favors?
A.Reducing the tension caused by social contact.
B.Increasing the chance of getting help in return.
C.Avoiding the discomfort from conflicting thoughts.
D.Establishing a cooperative community of shared trust.
34.What does the underlined word “altruistic” probably mean in paragraph 4?
A.Selfless. B.Impolite. C.Aggressive. D.Responsible.
35.What does the author think of the Ben Franklin Effect?
A.It makes little sense. B.It applies to most cultures.
C.It has situational limitations. D.It has great practical significance.

Do you ever have months when you struggle to keep your money under control? There are many reasons why we overspend. It could be because we aren’t aware of our true spending habits. 36
37
When you head out to the mall, take only the amount of cash you’ll probably need and leave the credit cards at home. By doing this, you avoid the temptation of using the card for a spur of the moment purchase, which is often the fastest way to find yourself in debt.
Start using a budget.
38 If you aren’t sure about how much you take home each month and how much your expenses add up to, you’ll continuously fall into the trap of buying all the things you think you can afford, only to get a rude awakening at the end of the month when your bank account isn’t looking too great.
Track your spending.
Those small things you buy on a regular basis can really add up by the end of the month. 39 By following this simple step, you’ll also learn to respect your money more.
40 Let’s not allow ourselves to fall into the trap of overspending on unnecessary things in the new year.
A. Switch to cash only.
B. Make a list of what to buy.
C. We’re going through enough stress as it is.
D. Here are some tips on how you can avoid overspending and keep your money in check.
E. Besides, there are some other reasons why you can’t set aside savings.
F. The best way to control your money is to track everything you’re spending it on.
G. Not having a spending plan is one of the main reasons people can’t seem to stop spending money.

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a warm spring afternoon in Sanaa, Yemen, and the streets outside Abdullah Primary School were full of energy as children left for the day. Laughter filled the narrow lanes, mixing with the voices of street vendors and the occasional honking of cars passing by. Eleven-year-old Hasan walked through the crowd, his thoughts already on his evening chores(家务).
Suddenly, a deep, threatening roar broke the silence—a car racing at an unusual speed. Hasan’s eyes fixed on a vehicle speeding toward the crowd, panic spreading and children screaming. The driver’s purpose was clear, and chaos broke out. The car’s engine growled(咆哮), making the air feel heavy with danger.
For a moment, Hasan was frozen with fear. His legs felt heavy, as if rooted to the ground. His heart raced, and his breath caught in his throat. But then, something clicked. He remembered the advice his father had given him during difficult times: In moments of fear, think, and then act.
Taking a deep breath, Hasan scanned the surroundings. He didn’t turn around and run in the direction the vehicle was moving. Instead, he faced the vehicle and quickly dodged(躲闪) to the side before it rushed past. The air was thick with dust as the car zoomed by, the sound of its tires(轮胎) screeching on the pavement. “Get to the walls! Hide in the alleys(小巷)!” Hasan shouted, his voice cutting through the noise, surprisingly calm. Several younger children, their faces pale with fear, looked to him for guidance. They followed his lead, narrowly avoiding the car’s path.
Hasan waved others toward a narrow side street. “Quick, this way!” he urged. The small group of children followed him, their footsteps quick and light, as they moved toward safety. Hasan’s heart raced, but he remained focused, checking that everyone was safe.
Minutes later, Officer Ben Bella, an experienced officer, arrived with his team and shot the terrorist dead. Hasan felt a wave of relief wash over him as the officer approached.
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。
The next day, Hasan was visited by Officer Ben. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【参考范文】One possible version:
The next day, Hasan was visited by Officer Ben. Arriving at Hasan’s home with a warm smile and a bouquet of flowers in his hand,Ben said, sitting down beside him, "You were incredibly brave yesterday, Hasan. Not many adults could have kept their cool like you did." Ben handed him a certificate of bravery, which he proudly displayed on his wall. Hasan blushed and appreciated the officer’s praise. "You're a hero," Officer Ben added, his voice filled with admiration. "You saved lives yesterday, and your bravery will inspire others for years to come. Maybe we could do something to educate people to acting smart when needed."
So, they also recorded a TikTok video. In the video, Officer Ben asked Hasan to explain how he had reacted in the dangerous situation. With a shy smile, Hasan confidently shared, “As the saying goes, calmness brings clarity. Common sense tells us that in the event of an oncoming car collision, never run in the same direction the car is moving—it's much faster than you. Instead, run toward a blind spot where the car will have difficulty turning or reaching you.” The video quickly went viral, inspiring many young viewers to be brave and stay calm in critical moments.
