I think that the saying is more than true. Nurses might be the only individuals on this earth that hold back their own tears to give a smile to others. If you were asked to name history's greatest nurses, you would almost certainly mention Florence Nightingale, the privileged woman who gave everything to serve the needy of her time. Yet while many remember her as a nurse, few recognize her as the “borderline genius”. Born on May 12, 1820, Florence possessed a once-in-a-generation mind——a polymath who mastered several languages and pioneered statistical concepts still in use today. Her parents were different too. At that time, being female typically destined one for a domestic life of knitting, but her immensely wealthy father was really dedicated to the education of his two daughters. On February 5, 1837, the teenage Florence declared that God had commanded her to end suffering in this world and this was when she joined nursing. Both parents objected fiercely; even her liberal father refused to accept it. Nursing wasn't then a respected profession. For over twelve years, Florence persisted, unable to sway them. Only when she turned thirty, her father exhausted by resistance, did he finally send her to Germany for formal nursing training. Her defining moment came in the Crimean War. Leading 38 nurses to a British military hospital, she faced cold rejection from doctors unwilling to work with women. Yet through steady determination, her team introduced cleanliness, care, and hope—— reducing the death rate dramatically. Nightingale was known for carrying a lamp and checking on the soldiers at night, and that is how she earned herself the title of “the Lady with the Lamp”. Though she passed away in 1910, her spirit endures through International Nurses Day and the Florence Nightingale Medal, honoring caregivers worldwide long after her death. 24. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To reflect nurses' emotional challenges. B. To introduce the topic by praising nurses. C. To show the evolution of nursing. D. To compare nursing with other professions. 25. What do we know about Florence's early experience? A. She pursued nursing following God's calling. B. She showed early talent in medicine. C. Her parents opposed education for daughters. D. She trained, to be a nurse in England. 26. Why did Florence gain the name “the Lady with the Lamp”? A. For tending to soldiers at night with a lamp. B. For lighting up hospital rooms. C. For guiding others with a lamp in emergencies. D. For using a lamp during surgery. 27. Which of the following can best describe Florence? A. Influential and honest. B. Legendary and easygoing. C. Humorous and innovative. D. Intelligent and determined. C The world is drowning in plastic, and one can hardly buy anything in the supermarket without encountering wrapping and other packaging made of this oil-based polluter that accounts for a major proportion of waste in landfills. Now, scientists at the Chinese University of Hong Kong have developed an edible, transparent and biodegradable material with considerable potential for use as food packaging. In a recent paper, published in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, the team members have turned their attention to bacterial cellulose(BC)— an organic compound derived from certain types of bacteria that has gained attention as a sustainable, easily available and harmless solution to the pervasive use of plastics. Unlike the cellulose found in the cell walls of plants, BC can be produced through microbial fermentation(发酵) that avoids the need for harvesting trees or crops. Prof. To Ngai from the chemistry department noted that as a result. “this production method does not contribute to deforestation or habitat loss, making BC a more sustainable and environmentally friendly material alternative to plant cellulose”. Ngai noted that this approach has high potential for scale-up. It doesn't need specific conditions like chemical reactions, but rather a simple and practical method with mixing and coating. “This approach offers a promising solution to the challenge of developing sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging materials that can replace single-use plastics on a large scale,” he added. The researchers are now exploring the directions for future research, hoping to increase the versatility(多功能性) of modified BC films(薄膜), making them suitable for a wider range of applications. They hope that their study will help reduce the excessive use of single-use plastics that can persist for hundreds of years after only a few days of being displayed on supermarket shelves. 28. What can be concluded about bacterial cellulose? A. It is mainly sourced from plants like trees and crops. B. Its production does not cause forest or wildlife destruction. C. It has been widely used as the primary alternative to plastics. D. Its fermentation process is more complicated than plant cellulose. 29. What makes this new method easily scalable? A. It doesn't require expensive materials. B. It depends on specialized reaction settings. C. It involves basic and workable operations. D. It uses precise mixing and coating techniques. 30. What's Ngai's attitude toward the research? A. Unclear. B. Cautious. C. Doubtful. D. Optimistic. 31. What will the future study focus on? A. Improving the strength of BC films. B. Reducing the cost of BC film production. C. Expanding the uses of BC films. D. Replacing supermarket display plastics. Christmas stockings may contain more surprises than usual this year, as children open presents that can talk back. Toymakers in China have declared 2025 the year of artificial intelligence(AI) and are producing robots and teddies that can teach, play and tell stories. In work and play, AI is reshaping childhood. It promises every child the kind of upbringing previously available only to the rich, with private tutors, personalized courses and tailored entertainment. A childhood fit for a king could become universal. Technology is creating new forms of fun, too. Hollywood may dismiss AI videos as low-quality stuff, but young people are consuming them and making their own. There are well-publicized risks in letting children loose on an evolving technology. Yet childhood may be disrupted most radically by things that AI does when it is behaving as intended. The technology quickly learns what its master likes—— and shows more of it. Social-media feeds have already created echo chambers(回声室) where people see only views they agree with. Not only does this destroy serendipity. A favorites-only diet means a child need never learn to tolerate something unfamiliar. One-sided relationships with chatbots present a similar risk. AI companions that never criticize, nor share feelings of their own, are a poor preparation for dealing with imperfect humans. Yes-bots threaten to create children not used to taking turns, who grow up into colleagues unable to compromise and partners unfamiliar with the give-and-take required in a relationship. It is a future filled with opportunities and hidden traps. AI shows undeniable potential to improve education and enrich entertainment. It may one day let every child live like royalty. But as real kings often discover, a specially designed upbringing can also be a lonely and atomized one. The truly privileged may be those whose parents and teachers know when to turn it off. 32. What can we infer from paragraph 2 about AI? A. It makes entertainment more exciting and diverse. B. It opens access to high-quality nurturing for all. C. It aims to make all children's experiences luxurious. D. It challenges the standards of traditional industries. 33. What does the underlined word “serendipity” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Surprise. B. Treasure. C. Motivation. D. Tradition. 34. What is the main danger of “Yes-bots” in paragraph 4? A. They give children inaccurate information. B. They leave children without key social skills. C. They lower children's interest in real social life. D. They cost too much for average families. 35. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. A Personalized tutor: AI's Educational Promise B. AI Revolution: Technology's Total Transformation C. Talking Toys: Risks in AI Companionship D. Reshaped Childhood: Promise and Risk of AI 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。 You' re trying to concentrate, but your mind is wandering or you' re easily distracted. What happened to the laser- sharp(激光般锐利的) focus you once enjoyed? 36 Over time, it accumulates wear and tear that directly impacts processing. The good news is, this attentional drift can be managed with the following approaches. Cultivate(培养) a disciplined mindfulness practice. 37 And practicing it has been shown to reshape the brain. Kim Willment, a neuropsychologist with Brigham and Women’s Hospital, recommends sitting still for a few minutes each day, closing your eyes, and focusing on your breathing as well as the sounds and sensations around you. 38 Such exercises are generally designed to improve your attention. However, evidence for their effectiveness has been mixed. “The goal of playing these is not to get better at them, but to get better in the cognitive activities of everyday life,” Willment says. “But there is evidence that a person's ability to pay attention can be improved by progressively pushing the person to higher levels of performance. So if you reach a certain level of sustained attention, pushing it to the next level can help improve it, and this may translate to everyday life.” Focus on a healthy lifestyle. This approach centers on two aspects: physical activity and rest. There is a direct link between exercise and cognitive ability, especially attention. When you exercise, you increase the availability of brain chemicals that promote new brain connections and reduce stress. 39 At the same time, you clear out injury- causing proteins. You have the power to shape your mental sharpness. 40 Starting small ensures you won't feel overwhelmed. This consistent practice builds cognitive resilience over time. Trust me. Your future focus will thank you for the investment today. A. Seek expert guidance and support. B. Engage in cognitive training games. C. Mindfulness is about focusing attention on the present moment. D. And when you sleep, you reduce harmful stress chemicals in the brain. E. You can think of the brain like a computer that slows down with use. F. However, mindfulness has regained enormous popularity in recent years. G. You'd better start by choosing one of these strategies to try this week. 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。 Waking up to a good snow would be great！ I thought one night last November.

I grabbed a rake(耙子) instead of a snow shovel and went outside to 51 the front yard. It was easier than shoveling snow. That was for sure. I looked up and down the street and had an 52 . I knocked on doors, got some raking 53 and earned enough for a nice gift. God had 54 my prayer in his own way, with a wind that allowed me to choose a beautiful flower arrangement for my parish priest. Who needed 55 ? 41.

Diagnosed with autism(自闭症), he often felt most comfortable in the quiet predictability of his own routines. Every Wednesday, however, a special event broke the stillness—— the arrival of the big green bin lorry(垃圾车) on his Greenock street. From behind the safety of the glass, Jaxx would watch, utterly attracted. He knew the two binmen, Brian and David, by the sound of their laughter and the rhythm of their work. A secret wish grew in his heart— to walk up close to the big green lorry one day, and perhaps even climb aboard like a real binman and take a turn at the wheel. Yet for now, he would simply press his palm against the cool window as they passed, a silent observer of their world. His mother noticed his quiet fascination. One particularly wet Wednesday, seeing the men working in the rain, she had an idea. “What if we made something warm for them, Jaxx?” she suggested gently. “Something to thank them for working in the rain for us.” The idea sparked a light in Jaxx's eyes. As the next Wednesday approached, a new routine was born. In the warmth of their kitchen, Jaxx and his mother prepared simple treats—— hot rolls and packets of biscuits. The carefully wrapped little gifts were waiting on the kitchen table when the bin lorry’ s familiar noise sounded in the street. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With his mom's encouragement, Jaxx walked outside. Hearing their story, the local depot(环卫站) manager invited Jaxx for a visit. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
