For information on safety and recovery after specific types of disasters and emergencies, please visit https://www.redcross.org/get-help/how-to-prepare-for-emergencies.html. ·Some natural disasters, such as severe storms or earthquakes, may recur in the form of new storms or aftershocks over the next several days. Take all safety precautions in case the disaster strikes again. For an earthquake aftershock, remember to DROP, COVER and HOLD ON just like you did during the initial earthquake. ·If you had to leave your home, return only when local authorities advise that it is safe to do so. Make a careful and thorough inspection of your home: (1) Sniff for gas. If you detect natural gas or hear a hissing noise, leave the property immediately and get far away from it. Call the fire department after you reach safety. (2) Beware of animals, such as rodents (啮齿动物) snakes, spiders and insects, that may have entered your home. As you inspect your home, tap loudly and often on the floor with a stick to give notice that you are there. Flooding and storms can create conditions in which disease-bearing mosquitoes can breed. Remove standing water where possible If you can’t get rid of it, use a commercial product that kills mosquito larvae (幼虫) or apply cooking oil on the water. Repeat the application within a few days if rain disturbs the film of oil. (3) Water damage, either from a flood or in the aftermath of a fire, is not just unsanitary-it can also be dangerous. From wallboard to rugs, items that are not thoroughly dried can grow mold (霉菌). Keep the windows open and run fans so as to pull moisture (湿气) out of wooden furniture. Throw out items that have absorbed water and can not be cleaned or disinfected (消毒). ·Disasters are upsetting experiences for everyone involved. Some people feel better after a few days, while others find that their stress does not go away as quickly as they would like it to. If you find yourself experiencing some of the feelings and reactions listed below for two weeks or longer, this may be a sign to reach out for additional assistance. a. Having difficulty in eating/ sleeping; b. Feeling guilty, helpless or hopeless; c. Avoiding family and friends; d. Suffering increased physical symptoms, such as headaches or stomachaches. 36. What should people do when an earthquake aftershock happens according to the text? A. Leave the place immediately and run to an open area. B. Take different safety measures from the initial earthquake. C. Do the DROP, COVER and HOLD ON action as in the first earthquake. D. Ignore the aftershock since it is less dangerous than the initial earthquake. 37. According to the article, you shouldn’t return home after a disaster if _________ A. the area is still suffering from aftershocks B. you find traces of wild animals around your house C. you catch a smell of gas as soon as you open the door D. your house has not been inspected by local authorities 38. According to the article, failing to _________ in your home after a disaster can cause harm to your health. ①dry out soft items ②drive off hidden animals ③get rid of standing water ④throw out wooden furniture A. ①③ B. ②③ C. ①②④ D. ①③④ 39. What is not a measure you can take to avoid the danger of water damage? A. Keeping the windows open. B. Cleaning the wet rug. C. Disinfecting the watery items. D. Deserting the uncleanable objects. 40. According to the article, after a disaster, you’re advised to consider seeking medical help if you _________. A. have lost contact with your family and friends B. have no idea how to thoroughly disinfect a room C wake up midnight from bad dreams weeks after it happens D. find yourself in low spirits within the first week of the disaster B In the early years of World War II, when Jane Goodall was around six years old, she was often woken up from her sleep by the blare of air-raid sirens (防空警报). The sound warned that Nazi planes were flying over the town. Her younger sister Judy would be up like a shot, bounding down the stairs to the bomb shelter. But Goodall refused to move. “I didn’t want to leave my bed,” she says. “They had to take me down with all my bedclothes.” Eight decades later, Goodall is standing in the living room of the same house. A camera crew moved between rooms in search of furniture to take to the garden for a photograph. Goodall, though, is still, arms crossed and eyebrows raised. Her voice cuts through the commotion (喧闹). Speaking softly yet with firmness she suggests the crew try her preferred location: her attic bedroom. She exhibits the same stubbornness as the girl who clung to her bed in wartime, then leads the group upstairs, victorious. Goodall’s quiet determination has powered her through a lifetime of waiting for others to come around. In 1960, at 26, she sat for months in the forests of Tanzania, waiting for the local chimpanzees to accept her presence so that she would have the opportunity to observe them up close. When she finally succeeded in doing so, she made the remarkable discovery that they were able to use tools, a discovery that would transform our understanding of the relationship between humans and animals, earning her global fame in the process. In 1962, while pursuing her Ph. D. at the University of Cambridge, Goodall was criticized by her professors for using human names and emotions to describe chimps. Her response? “I didn’t confront them. I just quietly went on doing what I knew was right,” she recalls. Although she learned to describe her observations in more scientific language, her belief that chimps are intelligent social animals is now widely accepted and has paved the way for much tighter restrictions on their use in lab testing. After Goodall shifted from research to activism in the 1980s, her steady, non-confrontational approach allowed her to become one of the most productive environmentalists in modern history. She made the best use of her own life story — drawing on the powerful image of a lone woman living among the animals — to get people excited about environmentalism in an era when it was a fringe activity (边缘活动). Through the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI), which she founded in 1977, she raised funds for habitat conservation projects, poverty-alleviation programs, and animal shelters. And as she travelled around the world, she added countless new stories to her repertoire: on history, animal behavior, human originality and more. These, rather than protests, became her campaign tools. “If I’m trying to change somebody who disagrees with me — I choose not to be holier-than-thou (自命清高的),” she says. “You’ve got to reach the heart. And I do that through storytelling.” 41. Paragraphs 1 & 2 are intended to show Jane Goodall _________. A. was very clever since she was a little girl B. remained calm even under wartime conditions C. was very determined to do what she thought was right D. respected other people and didn’t bother to change their mind 42. According to the article, which of the following statements is true about Goodall? A. She helped make chimpanzees more available in lab testing. B. She founded the Jane Goodall Institute to raise money for Tanzania C. Her unique way of observing chimps helped her make great discoveries. D. The way that Goodall studied wild chimps was encouraged by her professors. 43. The underlined word “confront” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _________. A. ignore B. satisfy C. believe in D. argue with 44. After Goodall shifted from research to activism, she would try to _________ if she wanted to change someone’s mind. A. tell amazing stories B. set them a good example C. share her feelings with them D. teach them to think for themselves 45. What is the best title of the passage? A. A New Discovery of Animals B. The Confrontation to a New Discovery C. The Enduring Hope of Jane Goodall D. Jane Goodall: an everlasting legend C In a groundbreaking new study, researchers discovered bottled water sold in stores can contain 10 to 100 times more bits of plastic than previously estimated — nanoplastics (纳米塑料) are so tiny that they cannot be seen under a microscope. Nanoplastics are just 1/1000th the width of an average human hair — so tiny that experts say they can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract (消化道) or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells. One liter of water — equal to two standard- size bottled waters — contained an average of 240,000 plastic particles (粒子) from seven types of plastics, of which 90% were identified as nanoplastics and the rest were microplastics, according to the new study. Microplastics are polymer fragments that can range from less than 0.2 inch (5 millimeters) down to 1/20000th of an inch (1 micrometer) . Anything smaller is a nanoplastic that must be measured in billionths of a meter. In the new study, published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers from Columbia University presented a new technology that can see, count and analyze the chemical structure of nanoparticles in bottled water. Instead of 300 per liter, the team behind the latest study found the actual number of plastic bits in three popular brands of water sold in the United States to be in between 110,000 and 370,000, not higher. “The innovative techniques presented in the study open the door for further research to better understand the potential risks to human health.” said Jane Houlihan, research director for Healthy Babies, Bright Futures — a nonprofit committed to reducing babies’ exposures to neurotoxic (毒害神经的) chemicals, who was not involved in the study. “Infants and young children may face the greatest risks, as their developing brains and bodies are often more vulnerable to impacts from toxic exposures.” said Houlihan in an email. Nanoplastics are the most worrisome type of plastic pollution for human health, experts say. That’s because the particles can invade individual cells and tissues in major organs, potentially interrupting cellular processes and depositing harmful chemicals such as bisphenols, phthalates, PFAS, and heavy metals. There are things people can do to reduce their exposure to plastics, said Houlihan. “We can avoid consuming foods and drinks in plastic containers. We can wear clothing made from natural fabrics and buy consumer products made from natural materials,” Houlihan said. “We can simply assess the plastic in our daily lives and find alternatives whenever possible.” 46. Where can nanoplastics be found in our body? A. The blood. B. The lung. C. The stomach. D. Almost everywhere. 47. What are the differences between nanoplastics and microplastics? A. Nanoplastics are harmful, while microplastics aren’t. B. Nanoplastics exist in bottled water, while microplastics don’t. C. Nanoplastics can migrate through certain tissues, while microplastics can’t. D. Nanoplastics are relatively bigger, while microplastics are much smaller. 48. Why is Jane Houlihan’s statement mentioned in paragraph 7? A. To add more background information for the new study. B. To provide evidence for the discussion of plastic hazard. C. To provide an objective evaluation of the new study. D. To encourage readers to focus on the new study. 49. What is the meaning of the underlined word “vulnerable” in paragraph 8? A. Fragile. B. Optimistic. C. Emotional. D. Ignorant. 50. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Nanoplastics: A Newly Discovered Plastic Type B. Bottled Water: High Levels of Nanoplastics and Their Health Risks C. How to Reduce Exposure to Plastics in Daily Life D. The Difference Between Nanoplastics and Microplastics D One of my bad habits is saying “busy” when people ask me how I’m doing. Sometimes it’s because I actually am busy juggling back-to-back meetings, urgent deadlines, and endless email threads — but other times it’s because that’s what I think I’m supposed to say. That’s what important people in leadership roles say, the ones who seem to climb the corporate ladder quickly. That’s what people who get promoted repeat in hallway conversations and team check-ins, as if busyness is a badge of honor. But here’s the hard truth: working long hours doesn’t drive better results, a and never taking a vacation won’t lead to a promotion. So why are we so proud to talk about how busy we are all the time, even when it leaves us drained and disconnected from what truly matters? In 2016, researchers from Columbia, Harvard, and Georgetown conducted a fascinating study to unpack this phenomenon. They found that busy people are widely perceived to be of high status, and interestingly, these status attributions are heavily influenced by our own deeply held beliefs about social mobility. In other words, the more we subscribe to the idea that success is purely the result of relentless hard work. the more we tend to associate nonstop work — skipping leisure, ignoring hobbies, and sacrificing personal time — with higher social standing. We equate exhaustion with ambition, and empty calendars with importance, even when there’s no real evidence to back this up. That’s why we feel pressured to appear busy, and there’s a pervasive perception that if someone is knee-deep in meetings, flooded with emails, and constantly stressed, then they’re probably a “big deal” at the company. The relentless culture of business is making it nearly impossible for employees to find a healthy work-life balance. According to a recent study by a leading workplace research firm, one in five highly engaged employees are at risk of burnout — a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress. This isn’t just a personal issue; it’s a systemic problem that hurts productivity, creativity, and employee retention across industries. Personally, I’m determined to stop saying “busy” when people ask me how I am. It sounds self-righteous and sets the wrong tone for workplace culture. Phrases like “I have limited access to email” and “I’ll respond as soon as I get back” sound like you’re being held against your will from working, rather than actively choosing to make the most of your time off. These phrases frame rest as a burden, not a necessary part of staying productive and happy. That’s why we recently launched the Out of Office Email Generator, a free, user-friendly tool you can customize before your next long weekend or trip. You can share loud and proud that you won’t be checking email until you’re back, turning a simple auto-reply into a statement about valuing rest. Managers need to think twice about emailing their teams on the weekend or bragging about their own busyness — these actions only reinforce toxic work norms. Leaders should lead by example: take time off themselves, disconnect fully, and actively encourage employees to do the same. Only then can we start to shift the narrative from “busyness equals success” to “balance equals fulfillment” 51. What is a reason for the author to be in the habit of saying “busy” when asked how he is doing? A. He just follows successful people’s example. B. He is actually proud to be fully occupied C. He thinks everyone should be devoted to work. D. He believes busyness ensures accomplishments. 52. Why do we tend to think that busy people are of high status? A. Our status can be attributed to our social mobility. B. We hold the belief that hard work leads to success. C. Our own opportunity for success never comes easily. D. We find few people of high status have time for leisure. 53. What do we learn about the culture of business from a recent study? A. It places employees in endless meetings, emails and stress. B. It compels some 20% of employees to appear always busy. C. It distorts many employees’ belief of a satisfying life is. D. It does much harm to many busy employees’ well-being. 54. What do such utterances as “I have limited access to email” sound like according to the author? A. One is too busy to check all emails in time. B. One is opposed to the prevailing work culture. C. One is forced by circumstances to stop working. D. One is simply enjoying their time off work. 55. Why did the author and his colleagues launch the Out of Office Email Generator? A. To enable busy employees to spend less time checking emails. B. To ensure employees as well as employers truly have time off. C. To stop managers from talking about how busy their teams usually are. D. To encourage both employers and employees to answer emails promptly. 第Ⅱ卷(共35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Every single person has a story to share, and a growing number of older Australians are choosing to record their life memories as short films. While writing memoirs can take years, creating a life story film takes just a few hours — and the resulting films are far more vivid than writing or looking through photo albums. Television producer and director Danika Armytage, known for producing shows like The Block, River Cottage Australia, Travel Guides, and The Living Room, has launched a company called Big Stories Little Films, which specialises in creating life legacy films. Since its inception in 2024, Danika has been busy bringing people’s stories to life in film. “Our films tell life stories, capture family ancestry, and allow wisdom to be passed between generations,” Danika explains. “They are often a gift between family members — either ordered as a birthday present from the kids, or as a film gifted from the grandparents to their grandkids — it’s like a film heirloom (传家宝) to pass between generations.” Danika was inspired to start the company after filming an interview with her own grandmother, Halimah, before she passed away. “The film became priceless to my family, especially after Granny died. Now my own children can meet their great-grandmother and feel connected to our family history, even though they never met her in person. Memories fade, but films are a time capsule that safeguards stories, keeping them as vivid as if you’re sitting at the kitchen bench hearing them directly from your grandparent.” “One of my favourite films was about brother and sister Raymond and Jennice Kersh, now in their 80s, who ran the iconic Sydney restaurant Edna’s Table and were pioneers in serving indigenous ingredients in the Sydney restaurant scene. Their story is inspiring, and their recollections of growing up in Pyrmont in the 1940s, a suburb where everyone was poor but no one was lonel’ are a perfect example of how these films capture living history.” These life legacy films have become more than just memory carriers — they bridge time, letting younger generations touch the past through elders’ voices and smiles. For families, they’re irreplaceable heirlooms; for society, they’re fragments of living history. As more older Australians embrace this way, countless unique stories are being saved from fading, turning personal moments into lasting family and cultural treasures. 56.

A. Which B. What C. That D. Whether 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：这个学期她在英语方面取得的迅速进步在我们班里是显而易见的。空处引导主语从句，从句中不缺少成分和意义，故用that引导从句。故选C。 13.

For information on safety and recovery after specific types of disasters and emergencies, please visit https://www.redcross.org/get-help/how-to-prepare-for-emergencies.html. ·Some natural disasters, such as severe storms or earthquakes, may recur in the form of new storms or aftershocks over the next several days. Take all safety precautions in case the disaster strikes again. For an earthquake aftershock, remember to DROP, COVER and HOLD ON just like you did during the initial earthquake. ·If you had to leave your home, return only when local authorities advise that it is safe to do so. Make a careful and thorough inspection of your home: (1) Sniff for gas. If you detect natural gas or hear a hissing noise, leave the property immediately and get far away from it. Call the fire department after you reach safety. (2) Beware of animals, such as rodents (啮齿动物) snakes, spiders and insects, that may have entered your home. As you inspect your home, tap loudly and often on the floor with a stick to give notice that you are there. Flooding and storms can create conditions in which disease-bearing mosquitoes can breed. Remove standing water where possible If you can’t get rid of it, use a commercial product that kills mosquito larvae (幼虫) or apply cooking oil on the water. Repeat the application within a few days if rain disturbs the film of oil. (3) Water damage, either from a flood or in the aftermath of a fire, is not just unsanitary-it can also be dangerous. From wallboard to rugs, items that are not thoroughly dried can grow mold (霉菌). Keep the windows open and run fans so as to pull moisture (湿气) out of wooden furniture. Throw out items that have absorbed water and can not be cleaned or disinfected (消毒). ·Disasters are upsetting experiences for everyone involved. Some people feel better after a few days, while others find that their stress does not go away as quickly as they would like it to. If you find yourself experiencing some of the feelings and reactions listed below for two weeks or longer, this may be a sign to reach out for additional assistance. a. Having difficulty in eating/ sleeping; b. Feeling guilty, helpless or hopeless; c. Avoiding family and friends; d. Suffering increased physical symptoms, such as headaches or stomachaches. 36 What should people do when an earthquake aftershock happens according to the text? A. Leave the place immediately and run to an open area. B. Take different safety measures from the initial earthquake. C. Do the DROP, COVER and HOLD ON action as in the first earthquake. D. Ignore the aftershock since it is less dangerous than the initial earthquake. 37. According to the article, you shouldn’t return home after a disaster if _________ A. the area is still suffering from aftershocks B you find traces of wild animals around your house C. you catch a smell of gas as soon as you open the door D. your house has not been inspected by local authorities 38. According to the article, failing to _________ in your home after a disaster can cause harm to your health. ①dry out soft items ②drive off hidden animals ③get rid of standing water ④throw out wooden furniture A. ①③ B. ②③ C. ①②④ D. ①③④ 39. What is not a measure you can take to avoid the danger of water damage? A. Keeping the windows open. B. Cleaning the wet rug. C. Disinfecting the watery items. D. Deserting the uncleanable objects. 40. According to the article, after a disaster, you’re advised to consider seeking medical help if you _________. A. have lost contact with your family and friends B. have no idea how to thoroughly disinfect a room C. wake up midnight from bad dreams weeks after it happens D. find yourself in low spirits within the first week of the disaster 【答案】36. C 37. C 38. B 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了灾难发生后保障人身与居家安全的通用措施，涵盖灾害复发应对、返家安全准则、居家隐患排查（燃气、动物、水损害等）以及灾后身心健康关怀等核心内容，为人们灾后避险和恢复提供了实用指导。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For an earthquake aftershock, remember to DROP, COVER and HOLD ON just like you did during the initial earthquake.(如果发生地震余震，请记住像第一次地震时那样，执行“蹲下、掩护、抓牢”的动作)”可知，地震余震发生时，人们应采取与首次地震相同的“蹲下、掩护、抓牢”动作。故选C项。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“If you had to leave your home, return only when local authorities advise that it is safe to do so.(如果你不得不离开家，只有在当地当局告知安全后才能返回)”可知，若当地当局未检查确认房屋安全（即未收到当局允许返回的通知），灾后不应返家。由此推测“开门闻到煤气味”是返家后发现的危险信号，属于不应返回的情况。故选C项。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据（2）“Beware of animals, such as rodents (啮齿动物) snakes, spiders and insects, that may have entered your home. As you inspect your home, tap loudly and often on the floor with a stick to give notice that you are there. Flooding and storms can create conditions in which disease-bearing mosquitoes can breed. Remove standing water where possible If you can’t get rid of it, use a commercial product that kills mosquito larvae (幼虫) or apply cooking oil on the water. (警惕可能进入家中的各类动物，比如啮齿动物、蛇、蜘蛛和昆虫。检查房屋时，用棍子频繁用力敲击地面，让它们知道有人在此。洪水和暴雨会形成适宜传病蚊子滋生的环境，尽可能清除积水；若无法将积水排净，可使用商用杀蚊幼虫药剂，或在水面上倒一层食用油)”可知，灾后如果没有赶走隐藏在家里的动物和积水可能对健康造成威胁。故选B项。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据（3）中的“Water damage, either from a flood or in the aftermath of a fire, is not just unsanitary-it can also be dangerous. From wallboard to rugs, items that are not thoroughly dried can grow mold (霉菌). Keep the windows open and run fans so as to pull moisture (湿气) out of wooden furniture. Throw out items that have absorbed water and can not be cleaned or disinfected (消毒).(无论是洪水引发的水渍损害，还是火灾过后产生的积水破坏，不仅不卫生，还存在安全隐患。从墙板到地毯，所有未彻底晾干的物品都可能滋生霉菌。要保持开窗通风，并打开风扇，让木质家具中的湿气散出。对于已经吸水、且无法清洁或消毒的物品，应直接丢弃)”可知，应对水渍损害的措施包括：开窗通风、清洁可清洁的潮湿物品、扔掉无法清洁的物品。而C选项“Disinfecting the watery items.(消毒沾水物品)”不属于可采取的措施。故选B项。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“If you find yourself experiencing some of the feelings and reactions listed below for two weeks or longer, this may be a sign to reach out for additional assistance. a. Having difficulty in eating/ sleeping;(如果你发现自己出现以下某些感受和反应，持续两周或更长时间，这可能是寻求额外帮助的信号。a. 饮食/睡眠困难)”可知，灾难发生几周后仍半夜从噩梦中醒来（属于睡眠困难，且持续时间超两周），符合寻求医疗帮助的条件。故选C项。 B In the early years of World War II, when Jane Goodall was around six years old, she was often woken up from her sleep by the blare of air-raid sirens (防空警报). The sound warned that Nazi planes were flying over the town. Her younger sister Judy would be up like a shot, bounding down the stairs to the bomb shelter. But Goodall refused to move. “I didn’t want to leave my bed,” she says. “They had to take me down with all my bedclothes.” Eight decades later, Goodall is standing in the living room of the same house. A camera crew moved between rooms in search of furniture to take to the garden for a photograph. Goodall, though, is still, arms crossed and eyebrows raised. Her voice cuts through the commotion (喧闹). Speaking softly yet with firmness she suggests the crew try her preferred location: her attic bedroom. She exhibits the same stubbornness as the girl who clung to her bed in wartime, then leads the group upstairs, victorious. Goodall’s quiet determination has powered her through a lifetime of waiting for others to come around. In 1960, at 26, she sat for months in the forests of Tanzania, waiting for the local chimpanzees to accept her presence so that she would have the opportunity to observe them up close. When she finally succeeded in doing so, she made the remarkable discovery that they were able to use tools, a discovery that would transform our understanding of the relationship between humans and animals, earning her global fame in the process. In 1962, while pursuing her Ph. D. at the University of Cambridge, Goodall was criticized by her professors for using human names and emotions to describe chimps. Her response? “I didn’t confront them. I just quietly went on doing what I knew was right,” she recalls. Although she learned to describe her observations in more scientific language, her belief that chimps are intelligent social animals is now widely accepted and has paved the way for much tighter restrictions on their use in lab testing. After Goodall shifted from research to activism in the 1980s, her steady, non-confrontational approach allowed her to become one of the most productive environmentalists in modern history. She made the best use of her own life story — drawing on the powerful image of a lone woman living among the animals — to get people excited about environmentalism in an era when it was a fringe activity (边缘活动). Through the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI), which she founded in 1977, she raised funds for habitat conservation projects, poverty-alleviation programs, and animal shelters. And as she travelled around the world, she added countless new stories to her repertoire: on history, animal behavior, human originality and more. These, rather than protests, became her campaign tools. “If I’m trying to change somebody who disagrees with me — I choose not to be holier-than-thou (自命清高的),” she says. “You’ve got to reach the heart. And I do that through storytelling.” 41. Paragraphs 1 & 2 are intended to show Jane Goodall _________. A. was very clever since she was a little girl B. remained calm even under wartime conditions C. was very determined to do what she thought was right D. respected other people and didn’t bother to change their mind 42. According to the article, which of the following statements is true about Goodall? A. She helped make chimpanzees more available in lab testing. B. She founded the Jane Goodall Institute to raise money for Tanzania C. Her unique way of observing chimps helped her make great discoveries. D. The way that Goodall studied wild chimps was encouraged by her professors. 43. The underlined word “confront” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _________. A. ignore B. satisfy C. believe in D. argue with 44. After Goodall shifted from research to activism, she would try to _________ if she wanted to change someone’s mind. A. tell amazing stories B. set them a good example C. share her feelings with them D. teach them to think for themselves 45 What is the best title of the passage? A. A New Discovery of Animals B. The Confrontation to a New Discovery C. The Enduring Hope of Jane Goodall D. Jane Goodall: an everlasting legend 【答案】41. C 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了简·古道尔的人生经历，包括她童年时期在战争中的倔强、成年后对黑猩猩的研究及突破性发现、面对质疑时的坚持，以及后来转向环保行动主义并通过讲故事的方式推动环保事业发展的历程，展现了她坚定不屈的精神品质。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But Goodall refused to move. “I didn’t want to leave my bed,” she says. “They had to take me down with all my bedclothes.”(但古道尔拒绝移动。“我不想离开我的床，”她说。“他们不得不连人带被褥把我抬下去。”)”和第二段中的“She exhibits the same stubbornness as the girl who clung to her bed in wartime, then leads the group upstairs, victorious.(她展现出了和战时那个紧守床铺的女孩一样的倔强，然后带着一行人上楼，俨然一副胜利者的姿态)”可知，第一、二段通过描述古道尔童年战时不愿离开床铺，以及八十年后坚持让摄制组去她阁楼卧室拍摄的事例，意在展现她做自己认为正确的事时的坚定态度。故选C项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In 1960, at 26, she sat for months in the forests of Tanzania, waiting for the local chimpanzees to accept her presence so that she would have the opportunity to observe them up close. When she finally succeeded in doing so, she made the remarkable discovery that they were able to use tools, (1960年，26岁的她在坦桑尼亚的森林里待了好几个月，等待当地的黑猩猩接受她的存在，这样她才有机会近距离观察它们。当她最终成功做到这一点时，她有了一个非凡的发现：黑猩猩能够使用工具)”可知，古道尔独特的观察方式（长时间等待黑猩猩接受，近距离观察）帮助她取得了重大发现。故选C项。 【43题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“In 1962, while pursuing her Ph. D. at the University of Cambridge, Goodall was criticized by her professors for using human names and emotions to describe chimps. Her response? “I didn’t confront them. I just quietly went on doing what I knew was right,” she recalls.(1962年，在剑桥大学攻读博士学位期间，古道尔因用人类的名字和情感来描述黑猩猩而受到教授们的批评。她的回应是什么？“我没有confront他们。我只是默默地继续做我知道是正确的事，”她回忆道)”可知，面对教授的批评，古道尔没有采取对抗性的行为，而是继续坚持自己的做法。由此猜测confront意为“反驳、争论”，与argue with。故选D项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“If I’m trying to change somebody who disagrees with me — I choose not to be holier-than-thou (自命清高的),” she says. “You’ve got to reach the heart. And I do that through storytelling.”(“如果我试图改变一个不同意我观点的人——我选择不自命清高，”她说。“你必须触动心灵。而我通过讲故事来做到这一点。”)”可知，古道尔从研究转向行动主义后，若想改变别人的想法，会尝试讲故事。故选A项。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第三段中的“Goodall’s quiet determination has powered her through a lifetime of waiting for others to come around.(珍·古道尔沉静的决心，支撑着她一生都在耐心等待他人理解与认同)”、第四段中的“After Goodall shifted from research to activism in the 1980s, her steady, non-confrontational approach allowed her to become one of the most productive environmentalists in modern history.(上世纪80年代，古道尔从科研转向环保行动后，这份沉稳、非对抗的行事方式，让她成为现代史上最有建树的环保主义者之一)”以及最后一段中的“If I’m trying to change somebody who disagrees with me — I choose not to be holier-than-thou (自命清高的),” she says. “You’ve got to reach the heart. And I do that through storytelling.”(“如果我试图改变一个不同意我观点的人——我选择不自命清高，”她说。“你必须触动心灵。而我通过讲故事来做到这一点。”)”可知，文章核心围绕古道尔一生的坚守与追求展开：童年时坚守自我，科研中坚持真理、等待认可，行动主义中坚守环保信念、用温和方式传递希望，始终对改变世界、促进人与自然和谐抱有持久的希望。“The Enduring Hope of Jane Goodall (珍·古道尔永恒的希望)”精准概括了文章主旨，贴合其一生的精神内核与行动初衷，适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 C In a groundbreaking new study, researchers discovered bottled water sold in stores can contain 10 to 100 times more bits of plastic than previously estimated — nanoplastics (纳米塑料) are so tiny that they cannot be seen under a microscope. Nanoplastics are just 1/1000th the width of an average human hair — so tiny that experts say they can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract (消化道) or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells. One liter of water — equal to two standard- size bottled waters — contained an average of 240,000 plastic particles (粒子) from seven types of plastics, of which 90% were identified as nanoplastics and the rest were microplastics, according to the new study. Microplastics are polymer fragments that can range from less than 0.2 inch (5 millimeters) down to 1/20000th of an inch (1 micrometer) . Anything smaller is a nanoplastic that must be measured in billionths of a meter. In the new study, published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers from Columbia University presented a new technology that can see, count and analyze the chemical structure of nanoparticles in bottled water. Instead of 300 per liter, the team behind the latest study found the actual number of plastic bits in three popular brands of water sold in the United States to be in between 110,000 and 370,000, not higher. “The innovative techniques presented in the study open the door for further research to better understand the potential risks to human health.” said Jane Houlihan, research director for Healthy Babies, Bright Futures — a nonprofit committed to reducing babies’ exposures to neurotoxic (毒害神经的) chemicals, who was not involved in the study. “Infants and young children may face the greatest risks, as their developing brains and bodies are often more vulnerable to impacts from toxic exposures.” said Houlihan in an email. Nanoplastics are the most worrisome type of plastic pollution for human health, experts say. That’s because the particles can invade individual cells and tissues in major organs, potentially interrupting cellular processes and depositing harmful chemicals such as bisphenols, phthalates, PFAS, and heavy metals. There are things people can do to reduce their exposure to plastics, said Houlihan. “We can avoid consuming foods and drinks in plastic containers. We can wear clothing made from natural fabrics and buy consumer products made from natural materials,” Houlihan said. “We can simply assess the plastic in our daily lives and find alternatives whenever possible.” 46. Where can nanoplastics be found in our body? A. The blood. B. The lung. C. The stomach. D. Almost everywhere. 47. What are the differences between nanoplastics and microplastics? A. Nanoplastics are harmful, while microplastics aren’t. B. Nanoplastics exist in bottled water, while microplastics don’t. C. Nanoplastics can migrate through certain tissues, while microplastics can’t. D. Nanoplastics are relatively bigger, while microplastics are much smaller. 48. Why is Jane Houlihan’s statement mentioned in paragraph 7? A. To add more background information for the new study. B. To provide evidence for the discussion of plastic hazard. C. To provide an objective evaluation of the new study. D. To encourage readers to focus on the new study. 49. What is the meaning of the underlined word “vulnerable” in paragraph 8? A. Fragile. B. Optimistic. C. Emotional. D. Ignorant. 50. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Nanoplastics: A Newly Discovered Plastic Type B. Bottled Water: High Levels of Nanoplastics and Their Health Risks C. How to Reduce Exposure to Plastics in Daily Life D. The Difference Between Nanoplastics and Microplastics 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. C 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了瓶装水中纳米塑料含量高及其对健康的潜在风险。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Nanoplastics are just 1/1000th the width of an average human hair — so tiny that experts say they can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract (消化道) or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells.(纳米塑料的宽度仅为人类平均头发的千分之一，非常小，专家表示，它们可以通过消化道或肺部的组织迁移到血液中，将潜在有害的人工化学物质分布到全身和细胞中)”可知，纳米塑料几乎可以到达我们身体的任何地方。故选D。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Nanoplastics are just 1/1000th the width of an average human hair — so tiny that experts say they can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract (消化道) or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells.(纳米塑料的宽度仅为人类平均头发的千分之一，非常小，专家表示，它们可以通过消化道或肺部的组织迁移到血液中，将潜在有害的人工化学物质分布到全身和细胞中)”及第四段“Microplastics are polymer fragments that can range from less than 0.2 inch (5 millimeters) down to 1/20000th of an inch (1 micrometer). Anything smaller is a nanoplastic that must be measured in billionths of a meter.(微塑料是聚合物碎片，其尺寸范围从小于0.2英寸（5毫米）到1/20000英寸（1微米）。任何比这更小的都是纳米塑料，必须以十亿分之一米为单位进行测量)”可知，纳米塑料的核心特点是体积足够小，能够穿透特定组织进入血液循环，而微塑料不具备这一能力。故选C。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第七段““The innovative techniques presented in the study open the door for further research to better understand the potential risks to human health.” said Jane Houlihan, research director for Healthy Babies, Bright Futures — a nonprofit committed to reducing babies’ exposures to neurotoxic (毒害神经的) chemicals. who was not involved in the study.(“这项研究中提出的创新技术为进一步研究打开了大门，以便更好地了解对人类健康的潜在风险。”健康婴儿、光明未来（一个致力于减少婴儿接触神经毒性化学物质的非营利组织）的研究主任简·霍利汉说，她没有参与这项研究)”可推知，提到简·霍利汉的陈述是为了对这项新研究进行客观评价。故选C。 【49题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第八段划线词上文“Infants and young children may face the greatest risks, as their developing brains and bodies(婴幼儿和年幼的孩子可能面临最大的风险，因为他们的大脑和身体仍在发育中)”可知，婴儿和幼儿可能面临最大的风险，因为他们的大脑和身体仍在发育中，往往更容易受到有毒物质影响所带来的伤害。由此可知，划线词vulnerable意思是“易受伤害的”，与fragile“易损的”意思接近。故选A。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“In a groundbreaking new study, researchers discovered bottled water sold in stores can contain 10 to 100 times more bits of plastic than previously estimated — nanoplastics (纳米塑料) are so tiny that they cannot be seen under a microscope.(在一项开创性的新研究中，研究人员发现，商店里出售的瓶装水中含有的塑料碎片可能比之前估计的多10到100倍——纳米塑料非常小，在显微镜下都看不到)”、第二段“Nanoplastics are just 1/1000th the width of an average human hair — so tiny that experts say they can migrate through the tissues of the digestive tract (消化道) or lungs into the bloodstream, distributing potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells.(纳米塑料的宽度仅为人类平均头发的千分之一，非常小，专家表示，它们可以通过消化道或肺部的组织迁移到血液中，将潜在有害的人工化学物质分布到全身和细胞中)”可知，文章主要说明了瓶装水中纳米塑料含量高及其对健康的潜在风险。由此可知，B选项“瓶装水：高水平的纳米塑料及其健康风险”最符合文章标题。故选B。 D One of my bad habits is saying “busy” when people ask me how I’m doing. Sometimes it’s because I actually am busy juggling back-to-back meetings, urgent deadlines, and endless email threads — but other times it’s because that’s what I think I’m supposed to say. That’s what important people in leadership roles say, the ones who seem to climb the corporate ladder quickly. That’s what people who get promoted repeat in hallway conversations and team check-ins, as if busyness is a badge of honor. But here’s the hard truth: working long hours doesn’t drive better results, a and never taking a vacation won’t lead to a promotion. So why are we so proud to talk about how busy we are all the time, even when it leaves us drained and disconnected from what truly matters? In 2016, researchers from Columbia, Harvard, and Georgetown conducted a fascinating study to unpack this phenomenon. They found that busy people are widely perceived to be of high status, and interestingly, these status attributions are heavily influenced by our own deeply held beliefs about social mobility. In other words, the more we subscribe to the idea that success is purely the result of relentless hard work. the more we tend to associate nonstop work — skipping leisure, ignoring hobbies, and sacrificing personal time — with higher social standing. We equate exhaustion with ambition, and empty calendars with importance, even when there’s no real evidence to back this up. That’s why we feel pressured to appear busy, and there’s a pervasive perception that if someone is knee-deep in meetings, flooded with emails, and constantly stressed, then they’re probably a “big deal” at the company. The relentless culture of business is making it nearly impossible for employees to find a healthy work-life balance. According to a recent study by a leading workplace research firm, one in five highly engaged employees are at risk of burnout — a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress. This isn’t just a personal issue; it’s a systemic problem that hurts productivity, creativity, and employee retention across industries. Personally, I’m determined to stop saying “busy” when people ask me how I am. It sounds self-righteous and sets the wrong tone for workplace culture. Phrases like “I have limited access to email” and “I’ll respond as soon as I get back” sound like you’re being held against your will from working, rather than actively choosing to make the most of your time off. These phrases frame rest as a burden, not a necessary part of staying productive and happy. That’s why we recently launched the Out of Office Email Generator, a free, user-friendly tool you can customize before your next long weekend or trip. You can share loud and proud that you won’t be checking email until you’re back, turning a simple auto-reply into a statement about valuing rest. Managers need to think twice about emailing their teams on the weekend or bragging about their own busyness — these actions only reinforce toxic work norms. Leaders should lead by example: take time off themselves, disconnect fully, and actively encourage employees to do the same. Only then can we start to shift the narrative from “busyness equals success” to “balance equals fulfillment” 51. What is a reason for the author to be in the habit of saying “busy” when asked how he is doing? A. He just follows successful people’s example. B. He is actually proud to be fully occupied C. He thinks everyone should be devoted to work. D. He believes busyness ensures accomplishments. 52. Why do we tend to think that busy people are of high status? A. Our status can be attributed to our social mobility. B. We hold the belief that hard work leads to success. C. Our own opportunity for success never comes easily. D. We find few people of high status have time for leisure. 53. What do we learn about the culture of business from a recent study? A. It places employees in endless meetings, emails and stress. B. It compels some 20% of employees to appear always busy. C. It distorts many employees’ belief of a satisfying life is. D. It does much harm to many busy employees’ well-being. 54. What do such utterances as “I have limited access to email” sound like according to the author? A. One is too busy to check all emails in time. B. One is opposed to the prevailing work culture. C. One is forced by circumstances to stop working. D. One is simply enjoying their time off work. 55. Why did the author and his colleagues launch the Out of Office Email Generator? A. To enable busy employees to spend less time checking emails. B. To ensure employees as well as employers truly have time off. C. To stop managers from talking about how busy their teams usually are. D. To encourage both employers and employees to answer emails promptly. 【答案】51. A 52. B 53. D 54. C 55. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了人们习惯性说“忙”的现象，分析了这一现象背后的原因（将忙碌与地位、成功挂钩），指出了忙碌文化对员工身心健康和工作效率的危害，并提出了改变这种文化、重视工作与生活平衡的举措。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Sometimes it’s because I actually am busy juggling back-to-back meetings, urgent deadlines, and endless email threads — but other times it’s because that’s what I think I’m supposed to say. That’s what important people in leadership roles say, the ones who seem to climb the corporate ladder quickly. (有时是因为我确实很忙，要应付一个接一个的会议、紧急的截止日期和没完没了的邮件往来——但其他时候，是因为我认为我应该这么说。那些处于领导岗位的重要人物、那些似乎能快速晋升的人都是这么说的)”可知，作者习惯性说“忙”的一个原因是他在效仿成功人士的做法。故选A项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They found that busy people are widely perceived to be of high status, and interestingly, these status attributions are heavily influenced by our own deeply held beliefs about social mobility. In other words, the more we subscribe to the idea that success is purely the result of relentless hard work, the more we tend to associate nonstop work — skipping leisure, ignoring hobbies, and sacrificing personal time — with higher social standing. (他们发现，忙碌的人被广泛认为地位高，有趣的是，这种地位归因深受我们自己根深蒂固的社会流动性信念的影响。换句话说，我们越认同“成功纯粹是不懈努力的结果”这一观点，就越倾向于将无休止的工作——跳过休闲、忽视爱好、牺牲个人时间——与更高的社会地位联系起来)”可知，我们认为忙碌的人地位高，是因为我们坚信努力工作能带来成功。故选B项。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“According to a recent study by a leading workplace research firm, one in five highly engaged employees are at risk of burnout — a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress. This isn’t just a personal issue; it’s a systemic problem that hurts productivity, creativity, and employee retention across industries. (根据一家领先职场研究公司的近期研究，五分之一的高度投入型员工面临倦怠的风险——这是一种因长期压力导致的情感、身体和精神疲惫状态。这不仅仅是个人问题；这是一个系统性问题，损害着各个行业的生产力、创造力和员工留存率)”可知，忙碌文化对许多忙碌员工的健康（身心健康）造成了很大危害。故选D项。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Phrases like “I have limited access to email” and “I’ll respond as soon as I get back” sound like you’re being held against your will from working, rather than actively choosing to make the most of your time off. (像“我查看邮件的权限有限”和“我回来后会尽快回复”这样的表述，听起来像是你被迫无法工作，而不是主动选择充分利用休息时间)”可知，作者认为这些表述听起来像是一个人因环境所迫而停止工作。故选C项。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“That’s why we recently launched the Out of Office Email Generator, a free, user-friendly tool you can customize before your next long weekend or trip. You can share loud and proud that you won’t be checking email until you’re back, turning a simple auto-reply into a statement about valuing rest. Managers need to think twice about emailing their teams on the weekend or bragging about their own busyness — these actions only reinforce toxic work norms. Leaders should lead by example: take time off themselves, disconnect fully, and actively encourage employees to do the same.(这就是为什么我们最近推出了“休假邮件生成器”，这是一个免费、用户友好的工具，你可以在下次长周末或旅行前自定义设置。你可以自豪地宣布，在回来之前不会查看邮件，将简单的自动回复变成一种重视休息的声明。管理者需要慎重考虑在周末给团队发邮件或吹嘘自己有多忙——这些行为只会强化有害的工作规范。领导者应该以身作则：自己休假，完全断开工作连接，并积极鼓励员工也这样做)”可推断，作者和同事推出这个工具，是为了确保员工和雇主都能真正拥有休假时间。故选B项。 第Ⅱ卷(共35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Every single person has a story to share, and a growing number of older Australians are choosing to record their life memories as short films. While writing memoirs can take years, creating a life story film takes just a few hours — and the resulting films are far more vivid than writing or looking through photo albums. Television producer and director Danika Armytage, known for producing shows like The Block, River Cottage Australia, Travel Guides, and The Living Room, has launched a company called Big Stories Little Films, which specialises in creating life legacy films. Since its inception in 2024, Danika has been busy bringing people’s stories to life in film. “Our films tell life stories, capture family ancestry, and allow wisdom to be passed between generations,” Danika explains. “They are often a gift between family members — either ordered as a birthday present from the kids, or as a film gifted from the grandparents to their grandkids — it’s like a film heirloom (传家宝) to pass between generations.” Danika was inspired to start the company after filming an interview with her own grandmother, Halimah, before she passed away. “The film became priceless to my family, especially after Granny died. Now my own children can meet their great-grandmother and feel connected to our family history, even though they never met her in person. Memories fade, but films are a time capsule that safeguards stories, keeping them as vivid as if you’re sitting at the kitchen bench hearing them directly from your grandparent.” “One of my favourite films was about brother and sister Raymond and Jennice Kersh, now in their 80s, who ran the iconic Sydney restaurant Edna’s Table and were pioneers in serving indigenous ingredients in the Sydney restaurant scene. Their story is inspiring, and their recollections of growing up in Pyrmont in the 1940s, a suburb where everyone was poor but no one was lonel’ are a perfect example of how these films capture living history.” These life legacy films have become more than just memory carriers — they bridge time, letting younger generations touch the past through elders’ voices and smiles. For families, they’re irreplaceable heirlooms; for society, they’re fragments of living history. As more older Australians embrace this way, countless unique stories are being saved from fading, turning personal moments into lasting family and cultural treasures. 56.

(虽然写回忆录可能需要数年时间，但制作一部人生故事电影只需几个小时，而且最终的电影比文字或翻看相册要生动得多)”可知，与写回忆录相比，制作人生故事电影耗时更短且更生动。故答案为It’s faster and more vivid. 【57题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第二段“Since its inception in 2024, Danika has been busy bringing people’s stories to life in film. (自2024年公司inception，丹妮卡一直忙着将人们的故事搬上银幕)”可知，划线单词所在句描述的是公司成立后的情况，结合since和2024 年这一时间点，推测划线单词inception意为“开始；成立”。故答案为Start. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第四段“Now my own children can meet their great-grandmother and feel connected to our family history, even though they never met her in person. (现在我的孩子们可以见到他们的曾祖母，并且感受到与家族历史的联系，尽管他们从未亲眼见过她)”可知，这部关于祖母的电影对丹妮卡一家来说珍贵，是因为它能让孩子们见到曾祖母并接触家族历史。故答案为It lets kids meet their great-grandmother and connect to family history. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第五段“One of my favourite films was about brother and sister Raymond and Jennice Kersh, now in their 80s, who ran the iconic Sydney restaurant Edna’s Table and were pioneers in serving indigenous ingredients in the Sydney restaurant scene. Their story is inspiring, and their recollections of growing up in Pyrmont in the 1940s, a suburb where ‘everyone was poor but no one was lonel’ are a perfect example of how these films capture living history.(我最喜欢的一部电影是关于兄妹雷蒙德和詹妮丝・克什的，他们现在已经80多岁了，经营着悉尼标志性的Edna’s Table餐厅，是悉尼餐厅领域供应土著食材的先驱。他们的故事令人鼓舞，他们对20世纪40年代在皮尔蒙特长大的回忆是一个郊区，那里“每个人都很穷，但没有人孤独”，这是这些电影如何捕捉活生生的历史的完美例子)”可知，雷蒙德和詹妮丝・克什的故事成为“鲜活历史完美例子”，是因为他们是餐厅先驱，且对20世纪40年代的回忆展现了鲜活历史。故答案为They were restaurant pioneers and their 1940s Pyrmont memories show living history. 【60题详解】 开放性试题。答案不唯一，合理即可。根据第一段“While writing memoirs can take years, creating a life story film takes just a few hours — and the resulting films are far more vivid than writing or looking through photo albums.(虽然写回忆录可能需要数年时间，但制作一部生活故事片只需要几个小时，而且由此产生的电影比写或翻阅相册要生动得多)”以及最后一段“These life legacy films have become more than just memory carriers — they bridge time, letting younger generations touch the past through elders’ voices and smiles. (这些生命遗产电影已经不仅仅是记忆的载体，它们架起了时间的桥梁，让年轻一代通过长辈的声音和微笑来触摸过去)”可知，短片有声音和笑容，能让回忆更生动，因此更适合保存回忆。故答案为Short films. They have voices and smiles to make memories vivid. 第二节：书面表达(满分25分) 61. 假设你是校报英语专栏记者李津。你校为了庆祝故宫博物院建院100周年，于10月10日上午举办了主题为“百年故宫·科技传情”（Century-old Palace Museum: Heritage via Technology）的活动。请你按照以下提示，撰写活动报道： （1）活动目的、时间； （2）活动内容（专家讲座、AI创意作品展示等）； （3）收获和感受。 注意：（1）词数100左右； （2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Century-old Palace Museum: Heritage via Technology To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Palace Museum, our school hosted a themed event titled Century-old Palace Museum: Heritage via Technology on the morning of October 10th.
