How does it work? Teams must send drafts and a short description of how their robot will move,keep its balance, and finish tasks.Marine engineers will review all plans,give feedback(),and select up to 40 英语第2页（共8页） teams in the end.Robots should be battcry-powered,no longer than 40 cm,and safe to use under waler. What happens in the pool? Robols face a 5-minute test in a large pool.They need to collect floating objects,pass through underwater hoops ()record a 30-second video of the "deep world",and finally return to the starting line.Every move is filmed,and teams later study the data to write reports.The best reports will win teams a place at the National Youth Marine Technology Conference,where up to four students per team may be present. What about costs and awards? Participating in the Challenge is free,but teams must cover materials,shipping,and travel if necessary.To help,non-local presenters can receive $400 in travel support.Prizes are $500, $300,and $150 respectively,with winning robots shown in an online exhibition. Why join? This Challenge offers far more than a school project.It is a chance to test ideas,gain real engineering experience,and add a shining point to your college applications-all while exploring the wonders of the ocean. 21.What is the main goal of the Challenge? A.To popularize underwater robots. B.To test battery-powered machines. C.To prepare for an international competition. D.To promote ocean protection through technology. 22.What will all participants get? A.A guaranteed spot in the online exhibition. B.Detailed reports on their robots'performance.

B When Michelle Jackson retired at 56,she felt as if a door had suddenly closed.After decades as an engineer designing high-speed trains for British Rail,the once-busy rhythm of meetings, deadlines,and projects was gone.The silence that followed felt heavier than she had expected. "What am I going to do now?"she asked herself,faced with long days and too much quiet time. Luckily,five years later,she found her answer.At 61,Michelle picked up her first camera, determined to learn something entirely new.As a beginner,she joined a local walking and photography group,often spending hours outdoors experimenting with settings she barely understood at first.She also signed up for online courses in photography and Photoshop,insisting,"If I'm going to do something,I'll do it properly." Michelle always loved nature.In her twenties,she hiked long distances such as the 268-mile Pennine Way in norther England.Yet back then,she never thought of bringing a camera.Only after retirement did she realize that photography could preserve what had always touched her:the quiet wonder of wild places and animals. Her hearing loss,which once pushed her into retirement,has sharpened her vision.She notes that the weakening of one sense can strengthen another.This heightened perception,coupled with great patience,allows her to tolerate long waits in nature-whether for seabirds to form a heart with their heads or for a deer to enter the twilight. Now in her mid-60s,Michelle has won national and international awards.She spends at least 英语第3页（共8页） 20 hoswckin the ficld hiding mder nets for cover or lying in wet grass,always ready for the cmof the npd.Yet for her,cess is not meaaured by awards."Each time I see an animal appear."she snys,"my heart races.If you truly seck them,you will find them." 24.What pushed Michelle to take up photography? A.Hcr interest in online courses. B.Her sudden hearing loss. C.Her emptiness after rclirement. D.Her thirst for expanding her social circle. 25.How does hearing loss influence Michelle? A.It enhances her ability 1o see. B.It causcs her lots of problems in daily life. C.It enriches her knowledge about wild animals. D.It deepens her understanding of human-nature relationship 26.What does Michelle probably think of the awards she has earned? A.They have helped her gain wide recognition. B.They bring motivation for her to keep taking photos C.They fail to compare with the joy of spotting wild animals. D.They are a silent witness to her progress in photography. 27.What message does Michelle's story deliver? A.Well begun is half done. B.Age is no limit to passion. C.Nature is the best medicine. D.Failure is the mother of success. C Humans are experts at rearranging matter.Advances in chemistry have given us lifesaving drugs,massive agricultural yields,and so on.But many of our chemical creations,like plastics and so-called forever chemicals,have an unpleasant tendency to hang around,showing up in our water,food,and even our bodies.It can feel disastrous:With the products of our technology now woven into remote ecosystems and our own flesh,there's no escape for us. However,we are not the only chemical engineers.Plants turn air into wood and sunlight into sugar,while microbes()perform remarkable functions.Using microbes for waste cleanup is already a proven technology.Many wastewater treatment plants rely on microbes to break down harmful substances in the waste water,though some complex compounds stay irremovable. Commercial microbial products are also used to treat waste from paper factories,textile factories, and farms,as well as to clean up oil and gas spills in enclosed(spaces. Yet,these microbial products have limitations.Beneficial microbes are often outcompeted by local species in the wild,and even in enclosed tanks,they eventually die off.The key to overcoming such challenges,according to microbiologist Jiandong Jiang,is to craft and spread intentionally designed microbial communities,or microbiomes. To create customized microbiomes,Jiang and others are using a bottom-up approach.They identify the tasks they want their microbes to perform and then use tools to decide species capable of finishing those tasks.The goal is to design a community where microbes work cooperatively,with some breaking down pollutants into manageable parts for others to consume,and others providing supporting roles. In the future,advances in synthetic()biology and genetic engineering may enable scientists to develop customized microbiomes capable of breaking down even more stubborn targets. While the use of genetically engineered or fully synthetic microbe cleanup crews in the wild is still a long-term vision,experts believe widespread use of customized microbiomes designed with the bottom-up approach could occur within the next decade. 英语第4页（共8页） 28.What is a major problem of human chemical innovations? A.They involve a rather long production cycle. B.They are too expensive to produce massively. C.They are less efficient than nalural chemical processes. D.They have severe impacts on the environment and humans. 29.What does the text say about the current microbial products? A.They require testing in a wider context.B.They perform worse in enclosed tanks. C.They break down pollutants with ease.D.They need specific working conditions. 30.How does Jiang's bottom-up approach improve microbial cleanups? A.By stressing teamwork among microbes. B.By relying heavily on existing local species. C.By using genetically engineered microbes from the start. D.By selecting single species that can perform multiple functions. 31.What is the experts'attitude towards the application of customized microbiomes? A.Positive. B.Dismissive. C.Mixed. D.Worried. D Beneath the Viphya Mountains in Malawi lies Mzimba,a district where poverty runs deep. Malawi's GDP per capita is barely six hundred dollars,and there are few opportunities for children. But in classrooms where chalk once faded and teachers struggled with overcrowded lessons, something unexpected has appeared:interactive tablets. Since 2023,the government,working with a UK non-profit called Onebillion,has introduced adaptive devices that teach literacy and numeracy(计算能力)in both Chichewa and English, What makes these tablets remarkable is not simply that they deliver lessons,but that they adjust.A child uncertain about basic numbers is guided patiently through simple problems,while another, confident with letters,is swiftly advanced to harder passages.Rarely has education in rural Africa been so individualized. That such technology matters is beyond doubt.Randomized trial has found that children using the tablets for merely one hour daily gained the equal of four additional months of leaming within just over a year.Even more impressive is the prediction:these skills may add more than sixteen thousand dollars to lifetime earnings,a sum extraordinary in one of the world's poorest nations. No teachers have resisted.Overwhelmed by a student-teacher ratio()that often exceeds 70:1,they welcome the devices,for while children are engaged with interactive exercises,teachers can focus on guidance rather than endless repetition.Indeed,rarely has a reform been so highly endorsed by both educators and students. However,challenges remain.Limited electricity makes solar panels essential,and concems about damaged or lost tablets cannot be ignored.Yet,compared with the cost,the benefits are vast.For every dollar spent,researchers calculated more than one hundred dollars of social value returned.Not only is this an innovation;it is a revolution.By allowing each child to leam at his or her own pace,the tablets sow seeds of confidence and possibility-seeds that,once planted,may reshape an entire generation's future. 32.What did Malawi's government do in 2023? A.It established a nonprofit organization. B.It adjusted its focus on literacy and numeracy. C.It strengthened the role of English in education. D.It integrated tailored teaching into the classroom. 33.What did the trial on the devices reveal? A.They helped build social skills. B.They bore fruitful results. C.They delivered fixed content. D.They ran out of power quickly 英语第5页（共8页） ..ut docs the underlined word "endorsed"in paragraph 4 mean? A.Inlensificd. B.Developed. C.Appreciated. D.Criticized. 35.Which can be the best title for the text? A.Teachers'Roles Change with Educational Innovation B.Interactive Tablels Reshape Rural Education in Malawi C.The Tough Educational Situation in Poor African Areas D.Challenges of Applying Technology in Rural Classrooms 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Meg Josephson,a psychotherapist(心理治7师)in San Francisco,once met a client who left every party convinced-without proof-that everyone secretly disliked her.36 Many people know the pain of overthinking:worrying about a short text,panicking when a neighbor doesn't say hello,or fearing that a simple chat with the boss means being fired. Josephson explained that this constant self-doubt has a name:fawning.37 The idea was introduced by psychologist Pete Walker,who saw it as a survival skill developed in childhood struggles.While research is still in its early stage,therapists agree that fawning can keep people safe in threatening environments but becomes harmful when it controls everyday life. Why?Because the body stays on high alert even when there's no danger.Josephson herself grew up in a tense home,always smoothing over her father's anger.38 People who fawn constantly monitor others'moods,believing,"I can't be OK unless they're OK. 39 First,don't assume you've done something wrong.Pause and ask if the story in your head is really true.Second,check your people-pleasing habits.Instead of saying "No problem" when it actually is,try being honest:"That was hard for me.Start small with safe situations. Finally,aim for authentic communication.Clear words build stronger relationships than constant guessing. Josephson reminds us that we cannot control other people's happiness.We might bend over backward to make a partner smile or a co-worker approve,but their moods are ultimately their own responsibility,not ours.40 A.This feeling wasn't unique. B.Make honest communication your goal. C.Josephson offers ways to break this cycle. D.Removing fawning is easier said than done. E.It means pleasing others to avoid conflict. F.Later,as a therapist,she saw how common this pattern is. G.Real freedom begins when we stop trying to manage how others feel. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I'm the kid of Mexicans who moved to the US and inherited()my great-grandmother's last name.For years,I carried my last name like a great 41.Teachers mispronounced it, classmates cut it short,and I myself 42 saying it aloud.Deep down I felt 43,though, because it was a constant reminder of a world I did not know.

Different from most traditional Chinese music that sticks 57 one melody,the Grand Song involves 58 wide range of voices.One voice can be as gentle as a small stream,while another rings out loud and strong.These voices are combined 59 (create)such rich harmonies that listeners feel totally surrounded by waves of sound.With no musical instruments 60 (accompany)them,the singers only use their breath and voices to build a world that's both 61 power)and pure. Recognizing its beauty and importance,UNESCO 62 (place)the Grand Song on the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list in 2009.Yet heritage is alive only when 63 (pass）down.That is why Pan,as a national inheritor(传承人)，sings_64_teaches tirelessly.

"It seems as if I were living with a stranger,"Eli once complained to his best friend,his eyes wet.Thomas lost his wife when Eli was five,and since then,work had become his escape.He'd get up and leave home at 5 a.m.,return after9 p.m.,too tired to chat,believing providing for Eli-paying his school fees,buying him whatever he needed-was enough.But Eli was hungry for words,warmth,proof that he mattered."He never asks about my soccer games,and never remembers my birthday,"he'd complain,ignoring how Thomas always left a warm breakfast on the counter,and how his clothes were always folded neatly. One rainy evening,Eli rode his bike home as usual.Unexpectedly,he lost his balance on the wet road and fell down.The next thing he knew,he was being rushed to the hospital.His father, Thomas,had been called from work and hurried over to his side.When Eli woke in the hospital, he saw his father-disheveled,eyes bloodshot,his work boots still caked in mud.He didn't say much,but just adjusted Eli's pillow,handed him a glass of water,and sat silently by the bed.It turned out that Thomas look the next two weeks off work-something no one at his company had ever seen.He cooked Eli's favorite food,helped him shower and change with gentle,awkward movements,and read to him at night-softly yet hesitantly,as if he was afraid to break the silence. 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。 The two weeks passed in a strange new rhythm. After being released from hospital,Eli had a deep conversation with his father. 英语第8页（共8页）
