Travelling to a remote destination offers an opportunity to expand your knowledge and understanding of our planet through experiences. Here are some of the best destinations to consider.
Rwanda
Rwanda is a destination of great natural variety. The remote Volcanoes National Park offers you the country’s most memorable wildlife experiences. Trekking hikes, lasting over four hours, will provide you views of the awe-inspiring mountain gorillas (大猩猩) in their natural habitats, against five of the eight Virunga volcanoes. Considering the specific permits and strict guidelines, it’s best to travel with an informed expert guide.
Costa Rica
With rainforests brightened by birdsong, lively rivers and volcanic landscapes, Costa Rica’s reputation for exciting travel is one that those in the know have long tried to keep to themselves. You can go white-water rafting on the Pacuare River. With a head for heights, you can get a bird’s-eye view through the rainforests in Herradura
Lipsi, Levitha and Amorgos
Within the Acgean island groups in Greece, you can find plenty of lesser-visited islands with ancient villages, dome-topped churches and isolated beaches to discover. From the wine in Lipsi to the caves of Amorgos, visiting quieter islands means that the economic benefits of tournsm can be spread to businesses located outside major tourist hotspots.
Antarctica
Antarctic wildlife is as fascinating as its landscapes, with many spectacular species to spot. Keep your eyes open for several different types of penguins, seals and whales. A trip to Antarctica also provides you an opportunity to visit many fascinating historic sites.

Born on her family’s farm in Ray, North Dakota, Mary Sherman Morgan had been helping her father with farm work before she could attend the small-town schoolhouse. Being a few years behind didn’t hold her back and she graduated from high school with honors. Aware of her intelligence, she ran away from Ray to attend Minot State University as a chemistry major, where her skill was evident.
The outbreak of World War II led to a national shortage of chemists and scientists. In spite of the fact that she was still a student and a woman, she was offered a job as a chemical analyst due to her talents, producing explosives (爆炸物) for the wartime effort. She put her degree on hold and moved to Ohio, taking on the dangerous job of analyzing unstable chemicals to produce weapons.
After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA (North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants (推进剂) and designing special fuels to work with different engines. However, never having returned to complete her degree, she was not afforded the rank or higher pay of an engineer, even though she had all the skills and knowledge of one.
Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Morgan was appointed technical lead on the project. National pride was on the line, so Morgan set about investigating fuels. After countless trials, she finally designed her own mixture, which was named Hydyne.
Hydyne tested well with the Redstone missiles and subsequently other aircraft (飞行器) , such as Jupiter-C rockets, proving to be a quick solution to getting to space without a total rocket redesign. The fuel made the first successful US satellite launch possible, even if Morgan silently slipped away from her success, retiring to focus on her family and leaving her chemistry career behind.
4. What do we know about Mary?
A. She attended school while helping with farm work.
B. She was offered a job as a chemistry analyst after graduation.
C. She changed her working focus because her country’s demand changed.
D. She launched the first US satellite before retiring from her career.
5. What was Mary doing after the war ended?
A. Analyzing chemicals. B. Producing explosives.
C. Mixing and saving fuels. D. Designing and building aircraft.
6. What made Mary the technical lead on the project of NAA?
A. Her special knowledge in fuels. B. Her rank as an engineer.
C Her discovery of Hydyne. D. Her sense of national pride
7. Which of the following words can describe Mary Sherman Morgan?
A. Caring and determined. B. Intelligent and skillful.
C. Courageous but sensitive. D. Accomplished but proud.
C
Imagine that you are in a crowded place. You do not notice, but someone is watching you and learns your iPhone password(密码). Then, they steal your phone. Suddenly, your photos, documents, financial information, and the rest of your digital life have been taken from you.
Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings.
Apple says the feature adds extra security for users. It addresses a drawback that thieves have used to lock device owners out of their Apple accounts, delete their photos and other files from their iCloud, and take money from their bank accounts.
SDP keeps track of a user’s “familiar locations”, such as their home or workplace. It also reduces the importance of passwords. Instead, it favors “biometric”(生物识别的)features such as faces or fingerprints, which are a lot harder to copy.
If a thief tries to erase or reset an iPhone, the device will require a Face ID or Touch ID scan to confirm that the person is the rightful owner. The new feature does not let someone use the password or any other backup method.
Another part of the new feature is designed to slow down thieves trying to change security settings. For example, if someone tries to sign out of an Apple ID account, change the password or reset the phone in an unfamiliar location, they will have to authenticate(证实)by using Face ID or Touch ID, wait an hour, and then do a second facial or fingerprint scan.
Changing an Apple ID password, updating Apple ID security settings, adding or removing Face or Touch ID, and turning off the Find My device feature or Stolen Device Protection also will lead to this feature.
8. What is the function of paragraph 1?
A. To set a phone-stealing scene.
B. To introduce the following text.
C. To remind readers to be cautious.
D. To explain how password theft directly causes device loss.
9. What can SDP do to add security for users?
A. Stop iCloud files from being deleted.
B. Make it less likely to enter the phone.
C. Secure Apple accounts with remote locking.
D. Prevent thieves from accessing bank accounts.
10. What does SDP require for resetting a stolen iPhone?
A. Previous passwords. B. A new security setting. C. An Apple ID account. D. Identity recognition.
11. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. iPhone’s anti-theft measure. B. Apple ID security settings.
C. Usage of biometric features. D. Apple’s iOS operating system.

58. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was Christmas Eve morning, and I awoke with a mission: to find my lost cat, Daisy. Sure, it had been six months since she’d gone missing, but I still had faith. It was the season for miracles, after all.
She was a beautiful lady, her fur a soft blend of brown, gold, and black stripes (条纹). Most importantly, she was a smart cat. I used to take her everywhere I could in a carrier (猫笼), and she was so clever that she learned to walk into it on her own, something I never thought a cat would do. We loved her so much that she was in the family’s Christmas picture every year. So we wouldn’t like her missing this year’s.
Dad always supported me, but he was so doubtful. He spent a whole lot of time trying to prepare me for the worst despite the fact that he spent all six months looking for the cat. “She’s either been hit by a car or been taken in by someone who found her,” he said. I rolled my eyes! He could do with a little more faith! Besides, though I couldn’t explain it, I knew I’d see Daisy again. She’d been a stray (走失的宠物) when I found her — a tough little girl that had survived all on her own. If any cat could do the impossible, it was my Daisy.
This Christmas, I was determined to pick up my search. I grabbed Daisy’s cat carrier and loaded it into the car, and then asked my dad to drive me to the animal shelter (动物收容所) , hoping shed been found. My eyes scanned cats of all shapes and sizes at the shelter. Much to my disappointment, none of them was my Daisy. We drove through the town without rest, checking every shelter and asking everyone we could find, but each response was the same: no one had seen her. Finally, we pulled over in front of the last shelter in town.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
I stepped into the house and heard a familiar meow (猫的喵叫声).
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

After the war ended there was a fall in demand for explosives, so she made a move to the field of aeronautics, moving to California to work for NAA (North American Aviation). The only woman out of 900 engineers, she was soon promoted to a role which involved calculating the performance of rocket propellants (推进剂) and designing special fuels to work with different engines. However, never having returned to complete her degree, she was not afforded the rank or higher pay of an engineer, even though she had all the skills and knowledge of one.
Her experience with propellants meant that when NAA was tasked to find a fuel capable of lifting the redesigned Redstone missiles into space, Morgan was appointed technical lead on the project. National pride was on the line, so Morgan set about investigating fuels. After countless trials, she finally designed her own mixture, which was named Hydyne.
Hydyne tested well with the Redstone missiles and subsequently other aircraft (飞行器) , such as Jupiter-C rockets, proving to be a quick solution to getting to space without a total rocket redesign. The fuel made the first successful US satellite launch possible, even if Morgan silently slipped away from her success, retiring to focus on her family and leaving her chemistry career behind.
4. What do we know about Mary?
A. She attended school while helping with farm work.
B. She was offered a job as a chemistry analyst after graduation.
C. She changed her working focus because her country’s demand changed.
D. She launched the first US satellite before retiring from her career.

Imagine that you are in a crowded place. You do not notice, but someone is watching you and learns your iPhone password(密码). Then, they steal your phone. Suddenly, your photos, documents, financial information, and the rest of your digital life have been taken from you.
Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings.
Apple says the feature adds extra security for users. It addresses a drawback that thieves have used to lock device owners out of their Apple accounts, delete their photos and other files from their iCloud, and take money from their bank accounts.
SDP keeps track of a user’s “familiar locations”, such as their home or workplace. It also reduces the importance of passwords. Instead, it favors “biometric”(生物识别的)features such as faces or fingerprints, which are a lot harder to copy.
If a thief tries to erase or reset an iPhone, the device will require a Face ID or Touch ID scan to confirm that the person is the rightful owner. The new feature does not let someone use the password or any other backup method.
Another part of the new feature is designed to slow down thieves trying to change security settings. For example, if someone tries to sign out of an Apple ID account, change the password or reset the phone in an unfamiliar location, they will have to authenticate(证实)by using Face ID or Touch ID, wait an hour, and then do a second facial or fingerprint scan.
Changing an Apple ID password, updating Apple ID security settings, adding or removing Face or Touch ID, and turning off the Find My device feature or Stolen Device Protection also will lead to this feature.
8. What is the function of paragraph 1?
A. To set a phone-stealing scene.
B. To introduce the following text.
C To remind readers to be cautious.
D. To explain how password theft directly causes device loss.
9. What can SDP do to add security for users?
A. Stop iCloud files from being deleted.
B. Make it less likely to enter the phone.
C. Secure Apple accounts with remote locking.
D. Prevent thieves from accessing bank accounts.
10. What does SDP require for resetting a stolen iPhone?
A. Previous passwords. B. A new security setting. C. An Apple ID account. D. Identity recognition.
11. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A iPhone’s anti-theft measure. B. Apple ID security settings.
C. Usage of biometric features. D. Apple’s iOS operating system.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. A

【答案】
Should high school students use AI to assist with homework?
Nowadays, AI is increasingly used by high school students to help with homework.
On the one hand, AI can offer quick answers and explanations, making complex problems easier to understand and saving valuable time. On the other hand, if students rely too much on AI, they may lose the ability to think independently.
To use AI wisely, students should first try to solve problems by themselves. What matters most is that they focus on understanding the knowledge rather than just getting the answers.
In conclusion, AI is a useful tool, but it should be used properly to support learning.

58. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was Christmas Eve morning, and I awoke with a mission: to find my lost cat, Daisy. Sure, it had been six months since she’d gone missing, but I still had faith. It was the season for miracles, after all.
She was a beautiful lady, her fur a soft blend of brown, gold, and black stripes (条纹). Most importantly, she was a smart cat. I used to take her everywhere I could in a carrier (猫笼), and she was so clever that she learned to walk into it on her own, something I never thought a cat would do. We loved her so much that she was in the family’s Christmas picture every year. So we wouldn’t like her missing this year’s.
Dad always supported me, but he was so doubtful. He spent a whole lot of time trying to prepare me for the worst despite the fact that he spent all six months looking for the cat. “She’s either been hit by a car or been taken in by someone who found her,” he said. I rolled my eyes! He could do with a little more faith! Besides, though I couldn’t explain it, I knew I’d see Daisy again. She’d been a stray (走失的宠物) when I found her — a tough little girl that had survived all on her own. If any cat could do the impossible, it was my Daisy.
This Christmas, I was determined to pick up my search. I grabbed Daisy’s cat carrier and loaded it into the car, and then asked my dad to drive me to the animal shelter (动物收容所) , hoping shed been found. My eyes scanned cats of all shapes and sizes at the shelter. Much to my disappointment, none of them was my Daisy. We drove through the town without rest, checking every shelter and asking everyone we could find, but each response was the same: no one had seen her. Finally, we pulled over in front of the last shelter in town.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 I stepped into the house and heard a familiar meow. My heart skipped a beat and I froze, holding my breath to confirm. There, huddled by the shelter’s warm fireplace, was a cat with brown, gold, and black striped fur — my Daisy! I rushed over gently, and she looked up, her eyes lighting up at the sight of me. She rubbed against my hand softly, just like she used to. Tears blurred my vision; the Christmas miracle I’d prayed for had come true. Dad stood behind me, his doubtful look replaced by surprise and joy, unable to say a word.
I knew I had to prove to the staff that she was my cat. I quickly recalled her unique habit and pointed to the carrier I’d brought. “She can walk into this carrier on her own, a trick no other cat here does,” I said. The staff watched as I opened the carrier. Sure enough, Daisy stepped in smoothly, as if she’d been practicing it every day. I also mentioned she’d been a stray I rescued, and described a small scar on her paw. The staff checked and nodded, smiling. That Christmas Eve, Daisy returned home with us, and we took our annual family photo — complete at last.
