Here are three famous examples. Mogao Caves The Mogao Caves are near Dunhuang on the old SilkRoad. They were built in the 4th century. The caves were a shelter for travelers and gave monks a quiet place to meditate（冥想）.Artists painted colorful pictures on the walls, showing both religious and daily life scenes. In1907, a Daoist named Wang Yuanlu showed a British researcher a small “library cave" with more than 50,000 documents in multiple languages. Grotto of Massabielle This small cave in Lourdes, France, became famous in 1858. A 14-year-old girl named Bernadette said she saw a goddess in her dreams. The goddess guided Bernadette to dig a small hole there, and a spring of water came out. People believed it could cure the sick. Later, a statue of the goddess was placed in the cave. and many visitors came flooding in every year to pray for good health. A film about her life,The Song Bernadette,became an international success, earning actress Jennifer Jones an Oscar. Lascaux Cave In 1940,four boys in France found a cave when their dog ran inside. On the walls,they saw hundreds of paintings and engravings, mostly of animals, such as bulls and horses.Experts believe the drawings were part of religious life, not just for decoration.Too many visitors damaged the paintings, so the cave was closed in 1963. A copy of it,called Lascaux II, was built and opened to visitors in 1983,and it remains popular now. 21.What were the Mogao Caves used for? A.Goods trade. B.Art and research. C.Language study. D. Rest and meditation. 22.What can we learn about the Grotto of Massabielle? A.It was built by Bernadette's family B. It was famous for its healing spring. C. It was found by travelers accidentally D.It was filled with animal paintings inside. 23.Why was the Lascaux Cave closed in 1963? A. Its decorations needed updating. B. It was reserved for religious use. C.Too many visitors harmed the art. D.A copy of it became more popular. B Holding my newborn baby, I looked at the nurses rushing around me. Little Lou was born with a heart problem and had surgery when he was just 48 hours old. The medical staff took my breath away with how hard they worked. Learning the special bed my baby lay on cost $55,000, I decided to raise that sum for the hospital. By the time Lou turned six months old, he had experienced another critical surgery-an 18-hour marathon where the medical team refused to give up. Their skills and perseverance saved him.Though I could never fully express my thanks, I remained determined: I would find a way to raise those funds. During the pandemic period, I took an online painting class. I'd always been creative and had worked as a visual designer. While I painted, all my worries disappeared.A mushroom I painted came out better than expected, so I kept at it. I wondered if I could start selling my artworks so I entered a national competition and was astonished to be a finalist. That competition opened many doors. Soon, I was being contacted by galleries to do solo exhibitions. In my spare time, I'd post my latest work on my newsletter and a buyer would quickly purchase it. I could barely keep up with demand. Every time I sold a painting, I donated the money to the Children's Hospital. Then one day, I was contacted by a woman called Emily, an aerospace engineer who was going to be the 100th woman to go to space.She floated the idea of taking one of my artworks into space. I created a painting for her.It's about a child in a spacesuit being lifted by balloons to show Emily's childhood dream of going to space. The balloons are slightly deflated（泄气的）to show how hard it was but that she never gave up. On November 22, 2024, Emily took my painting to space and helped me raise $21,000. I haven't reached my $55,000 mark yet but hope to do so soon. Lou,six,will need another heart operation eventually, but he's currently thriving（茁壮成长）.My artworks use different shades to show we all have dark times, but if we keep going,we'll see light again. 24.Why did the author raise money for the hospital? A.To repay its efforts. B. To upgrade its facilities C. To fund research on heart problems. D.To improve children's healthcare 25.What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What made the author stand out. B. What the pandemic brought to the author. C. How the author developed her painting skills. D.How the author's journey to artistic success began. 26.Why did the author detail the painting in paragraph 3? A.To show the painting's popularity. B. To highlight their shared determination. C. To demonstrate Emily's space exploration. D.To show Emily's childhood memory. 27.What does the author's experience show? A.Dreams shape tomorrow. B. Art benefits heart health. C.Many hands make light work. D.Gratitude fuels creative giving. C "Rubbish is immortal," wrote Czech author Ivan Klima in his novel Love and Garbage." What else is there that is so indestructible? " And even as we make the world into a greener place by embracing renewable energy, the problem of how to deal with waste remains a difficult one to solve. The thing is, renewable energy tools like wind turbines（涡轮机）do a lot of good，but they also need replacing and recycling when they get old. Many of the parts can be melted down and used again, but this comes at a cost to the environment, because the process produces carbon emissions. Luckily, experts have been working on ways to use these giant turbines again at the end of their lives. Old blades （叶片） have been used as noise barriers next to roads, as bike sheds, and as children's playground equipment. And some of the stemns-or nacelles, as the parts that contain the engines are known have even been used for housing. Last year, a Swedish energy company called Vattenfall and a Dutch firm Blade-Made worked together to create a tiny home made from a decommissioned turbine. Shown during Dutch Design Week in 2024, it's 4 meters wide, 10 meters long and 3 meters high and according to a television network, it is " surprisingly light and airy " thanks to glass doors at either end. Crucially, it also follows Dutch building rules. But with more and more turbines expected to be replaced in the coming years,could they really help to solve housing crises? Jos de Krieger is a co-founder of Blade-Made,and he said,"Why not?” His company,along with its collaborators, is planning to create 10 tiny homes using turbines. He told the network that making old turbines into homes is,"the most complex thing you can do", but now it's been done. Anything is possible."We-need solutions,"he said, adding that he wanted to "create stories, instead of waste”.Klima would surely approve. 28.What aspect of wind turbines does the passage focus on? A.Their high cost of production. B.Their new uses after retirement. C.Their role in reducing carbon emissions. D.Their contribution to greener housing. 29.How can people deal with old turbine blades? A.By burning them for fuel. B.By using them as road barriers. C.By throwing them away safely. D.Their contribution to greener housing. 30.What does the word "decommissioned" in paragraph 4probably mean? A.Out-of-use. B.Up-to-date C.Very expensive. D.Fully repaired. 31.What can we infer from Jos de Krieger's words? A. He needs to create stories for Blade-Made. B. He does the job to win approval from Klima. C.He has doubts about whether the idea will work. D.He hopes to expand the business in turbine houses. D Do you usually spot the touchscreen first when checking out a new car? For years,almost every new car sold has a high-tech screen that controls everything. Even safety features like automatic lane-keeping are sometimes screen-controlled. But is it really safe? If scrolling down the screen of a smartphone while driving is distracting and then doing likewise with your car's is probably risky too. Drivers know the location of physical controls and press buttons without taking their eyes off the road. A touchscreen offers no physical feedback, making the operation much harder. And because screens have to do so many things, it often takes a few steps through several sub-menus to find the right setting. In 2022, Vi Bildagare, a Swedish motoring magazine, measured how-long it took drivers to do things like changing the temperature while driving at 110 kilometers per hour. It compared 11 cars with touchscreens to a single older model with real buttons. In the old cars, drivers were able to do all their tasks within about 10 seconds,while the worst-performing modern car took 45 seconds. Even in the best-performing modern cars,testers still took several seconds longer than in the old car. Another study, done in 2024 by researchers in Norway, used tracking cameras to compare how long drivers were distracted while performing different tasks on a touchscreen. Even the quickest job like changing the temperature meant three and a half seconds, on average, of not looking at the road. New rules from Euro NCAP, an organization that provides safety ratings for cars sold in Europe, will give no car a full five-star score unless certain crucial functions are controlled by real switches. Euro NCAP's safety guidelines have no legal force,but carmakers use its ratings as a selling point. Traditional carmakers have begun restoring some buttons to their new models. But innovation never stops. Even as touchscreens are falling out of favor, many manufacturers are turning their attention to voice control-though that is a subject for another story. 32. What is an advantage of physical buttons over touchscreens? A.They are cheaper to produce and replace. B. They are easier to see in bright sunlight. C. They can be operated without looking at them. D. They take control of a wider range of functions. 33. Which took the longest time in the 2022 study? A. The model running at 110 km/h. B. The old model with real buttons. C.The best-performing modern car. D.The worst-performing modern car. 34.How does the author prove his argument in the passage? A.By showing different research results. B. By telling his own driving experience. C.By comparing the actions of car drivers. D.By mentioning the rules of an organization. 35.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A.Safety features will be smarter. B. Touchscreens will be abandoned. C.Voice control will dominate the market. D. In-car control will innovate continually. 第二节（共五小题，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。 Nature is a quiet but wise teacher-its simple wonders hold important lessons for how we live.

Having just finished my freshman year, I was there because my parents insisted I get a job to improve myself. As soon as I stepped inside, my manager, Ms. Carter,greeted me with a bright smile."Welcome aboard! Today, we start with the basics, "she said. I nodded, trying not to show how nervous I was. I spent the first few hours learning the registers, the proper way to handle the fryer, and the Special words for different orders. By the end of the first week, I had learned one important lesson: patience. During the lunch rush, I was thrown into the deep end. Orders Came quickly. The line of customers stretched out the door, and my hands shook as I tried to keep up. A customer got angry because I gave him the wrong drink, and I felt my face burn. I wanted to quit.But Ms. Carter pulled me aside. "Mistakes happen. Take a breath, focus, and keep going.You'll get faster, I promise." Her confidence in me made me realize I couldn't give up yet. The next few weeks were full of challenges and small victories. I learned how to work the fryer without burning myself, how to remember orders without writing them down, and how to calm angry customers with a smile. I began to feel like part of a team. Then came my biggest challenge. One Friday evening, right before the dinner rush,our cashier called in sick. Ms. Carter looked around and said, "Leo, you' re up front tonight." My stomach dropped. The register was fast and complicated, and the line was already forming outside. I wanted to say no, but everyone was counting on me. At first, it was a disaster. I hit the wrong buttons and the line grew restless. For a moment, I thought about running into the kitchen and hiding. But then I remembered Ms.Carter's words: "Take a breath, focus, and keep going." 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I took a deep breath and forced myself to slow down. By the end of the shift, I was tired but extremely proud. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
