A New York food bank took on a huge task this month when LocalCoho, an eco-friendly fish farm in Auburn, offered 40,000 pounds of live salmon (鲑鱼) before closing forever. The gift — equal to 13,000 fish swimming in giant tanks — created both a chance to help and a race against time: Workers needed to turn the live fish into frozen meals quickly to avoid waste and feed hungry families.
LocalCoho had developed special water-saving methods to raise fish for top-quality sushi shops but couldn’t get enough money to grow. With the farm closing on January 31st, manager Adam Kramarsyck wanted to donate the fish instead of turning them into fuel. “We’re making something good from a bad situation,” he explained. Normally, the farm could only handle 600 fish per week by hand — nowhere near enough to clear tanks holding ten times more.
The food bank gathered 42 helpers who stepped into waist-high water, using nets to catch the fish. “The short time limit made everything more stressful,” said operations leader Brian McManus. Volunteer Christina Hudson Kohler, who usually sorts vegetables, traded her regular job for a new task. She put on rubber boots and heavy gloves to move struggling fish into cooling boxes. Farm workers stayed late to help, while a trucking company offered free refrigerated delivery to a nearby food factory.
In just three weeks, the team created over 26,000 frozen fish meals for 238 food banks and shelters — a huge protein supply for families struggling to afford food. “Meat is super important but hard to get for people in need,” McManus said, calling this the biggest fish donation they’d ever received. The project saved tons of food that might have been thrown away, such as 35% of America’s uneaten groceries.
Kramarsyck felt proud that the farm’s earth-friendly ideas still helped people despite closing. Food buyer Andrew Katzer admired the farm’s effort. “Most failing businesses would give up, but the farm’s workers worked overtime to save every fish,” he said.
As frozen salmon reaches community kitchens across New York, the far-reaching impact of different groups working together is truly remarkable. Though LocalCoho’s business didn’t survive, its last gift became a powerful lesson in teamwork and hope — one fish fillet (鱼片) at a time.
4. What made LocalCoho decide to close its fish farm?
A. Water shortage. B. Lack of funds.
C. Low fish quality. D. Reduced food demand.
5. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Sorting vegetables was simple for volunteers.
B. The food bank had many fish-loving volunteers.
C. Handling the fish was pressing and challenging.
D. The food bank often dealt with large fish donations.
6. What can we learn from Andrew Katzer’s words?
A. He spoke highly of LocalCoho’s effort.
B. He suggested LocalCoho should expand.
C. He felt most businesses focused only on profit.
D. He doubted the effectiveness of the donation.
7. What does the author want to stress in this story?
A. The difficulty food banks face. B. The need to support fish farms.
C. The importance of courage. D. The power of teamwork.
C
Politicians often use humor to win public support, but scientists traditionally avoid jokes, worried that a lighthearted tone might reduce their authority and, consequently, the trustworthiness of their findings. A new study challenges this idea, showing that well-chosen humor can actually make scientists more likable and their research more trustworthy.
Led by Alexandra Lynn Frank from the University of Georgia, the research tested humor’s role in science communication through social media. The team created posts from a fictional scientist, Dr. Jamie Devon, sharing cartoons about artificial intelligence (AI). These posts used three humor styles: playful comparisons (like giving robots human characteristics), mean jokes about technology, or a mix of both. Some posts had no humor as a comparison.
Over 2,200 participants viewed these posts in an online experiment. They rated how funny the content was, how much they liked the scientist, and how credible the information seemed. Results revealed that light, positive humor — such as showing AI as a curious robot asking questions — made the scientist feel more approachable and the research more reliable. However, mean or unfriendly jokes reduced trust in the scientist.
“Humor helps people connect with scientists,” Frank explained. “When we laugh, we’re more open to listening.” But she stressed that jokes must feel natural, adding, “If the audience doesn’t find it funny, it could backfire.” For example, playful cartoons worked better than making fun of tech failures.
The study advises scientists to avoid tough jokes targeting individuals. Instead, gentle humor that simplifies complex ideas — like comparing climate change to the Earth having a “fever” — can build interest and fight misinformation. While focused on AI, these tips apply to fields like health or environmental science.
In today’s fast-paced digital world, humor could help scientists stand out on social media. Funny posts may attract more viewers, make tough topics easier to understand, and build public trust. The key is balancing fun with facts: lighthearted jokes don’t weaken expertise but create friendly, memorable connections.
Frank’s team hopes their findings encourage scientists to experiment with humor. As one participant noted “A scientist who jokes feels more human— like someone I’d trust.”
8. Scientists avoid using jokes in their communication because they fear that jokes ______.
A. waste research time B. might confuse the public
C. make their work seem unreliable D. distract from scientific facts
9. What does the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Be effective. B. Have the opposite result.
C. Be natural. D. Make people laugh.
10. According to the study, what kind of humor is recommended for scientists?
A. Jokes that target individuals. B. Making fun of technology failures.
C. Playful comparisons and gentle jokes. D. Using complex ideas to create humor.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Science and Social Media.
B. Jokes in Various Social Contexts.
C. The Impact of Humor on Public Trust.
D. The Role of Humor in Science Communication.
D
The bald eagle, America’s national symbol of strength and freedom, has made an inspiring comeback from near extinction. Once endangered due to harmful pesticides and habitat loss, these great birds now fly across skies they nearly disappeared from decades ago. Their story is one of environmental recovery and cultural pride.
In the mid-20th century, the widespread use of the insecticide DDT caused eagle populations to drop sharply. The chemical weakened eggshells, making it nearly impossible for chicks to survive. By the 1980s, states like New Jersey had only one nesting (筑巢的) pair left.
But after DDT was prohibited in 1972, conservation (保护) efforts began. Scientists transported eagles from stable populations in Canada and used creative methods, like replacing real eggs with fake ones, to protect chicks. These efforts paid off: New Jersey now has over 300 nesting pairs, and the species was removed from the US endangered list in 2007.
“They’re a conservation success story,” says Maia Edwards of the American Bald Eagle Foundation. Eagles have proven adaptable, nesting even in busy areas like suburban neighborhoods. Kathy Clark, a wildlife expert in New Jersey, recalls young eagles surviving in a crowded town near New York. “They’re tough — like true Jersey birds,” she says with a sense of wonder.
However, challenges remain. Crashes with cars, habitat loss and diseases like bird flu threaten their recovery. Zoos and rescue centers, such as New Jersey’s Turtle Back Zoo, care for injured birds that can’t return to the wild. Conservationists stress the need for clean waterways and protected spaces to ensure eagles grow well.
Culturally, the bald eagle’s comeback has won hearts. Recent laws officially declared it America’s national bird, though many assumed it already was. Native American communities, who view eagles as spiritual symbols, supported the move. The birds also inspire sports fans — like the Philadelphia Eagles football team competing in this year’s Super Bowl.
For average Americans, spotting a bald eagle remains amazing. Birdwatcher Dan Day, who grew up rarely seeing them, now encounters eagles regularly. “It brightens up your whole day,” he says. Experts remind people to admire eagles from a distance, as troubling them harms their recovery.
12. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The history of the bald eagle. B. The success of conservation efforts.
C. The current situation of bald eagles. D. The challenges faced by bald eagles.
13 How does Kathy Clark feel about bald eagles living in crowded New Jersey towns?
A. She is surprised by their ability to adapt.
B. She worries they will trouble human life.
C. She thinks they are a danger to local pets.
D. She believes they belong only in distant areas.
14. Why does the author mention the Philadelphia Eagles football team?
A. To emphasize bald eagles’ cultural influence.
B. To compare sports strategies with conservation.
C. To question the destructive business of wildlife.
D. To highlight unique regional birdwatching spots.
15. What can be learned about bald eagles?
A. They attack humans who get too close.
B. They prefer living in zoos over the wild.
C. Birdwatchers never see them in urban areas.
D. Human interaction could slow their recovery.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The evening was peaceful after dinner. The wife, who was a teacher, was sitting on the sofa, with her students’ exam papers piled up around her. As she was carefully checking each paper, her husband was sitting next to her. There was silence in the room, except for the occasional sound of the husband’s fingers tapping on the phone screen. He needed to check some emails, though he was off work at home.
At that moment, their seven-year-old son came to his father and asked, “Dad, could you play with me?” “Wait for a moment, I am busy now,” the man answered, even not raising his head.
As the wife was flipping through the pages, she smiled at some of her students’ innocent and creative answers. But as she reached one, her face suddenly changed. Her eyes filled up with tears. Before she knew it, tears started rolling down her face.
Her husband, who noticed the action, looked up from his phone and saw his wife crying. Shocked, he asked worriedly, “Why are you crying? What happened?” The wife wiped her tears and tried to reply, “Yesterday, I gave a test to my first-grade students. The topic was simple: ‘My wish’.” Her husband, still shocked, asked, “But why is this making you so emotional?” She picked up the answer sheet, “Because a child’s wish has touched me. Let me read it out to you.”
Then the wife read:
“My wish: I want to become a phone. My father loves his phone and he takes care of it so much. He has time for his phone, but he seldom plays with me. When he is talking on his phone, he doesn’t listen to me, no matter how important my words are. So I want to become a phone. ”
As the wife finished reading, the husband looked at his wife and asked, “Who wrote this?” The wife replied, “Our son.”
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 husband’s face changed.

A New York food bank took on a huge task this month when LocalCoho, an eco-friendly fish farm in Auburn, offered 40,000 pounds of live salmon (鲑鱼) before closing forever. The gift — equal to 13,000 fish swimming in giant tanks — created both a chance to help and a race against time: Workers needed to turn the live fish into frozen meals quickly to avoid waste and feed hungry families.
LocalCoho had developed special water-saving methods to raise fish for top-quality sushi shops but couldn’t get enough money to grow. With the farm closing on January 31st, manager Adam Kramarsyck wanted to donate the fish instead of turning them into fuel. “We’re making something good from a bad situation,” he explained. Normally, the farm could only handle 600 fish per week by hand — nowhere near enough to clear tanks holding ten times more.
The food bank gathered 42 helpers who stepped into waist-high water, using nets to catch the fish. “The short time limit made everything more stressful,” said operations leader Brian McManus. Volunteer Christina Hudson Kohler, who usually sorts vegetables, traded her regular job for a new task. She put on rubber boots and heavy gloves to move struggling fish into cooling boxes. Farm workers stayed late to help, while a trucking company offered free refrigerated delivery to a nearby food factory.
In just three weeks, the team created over 26,000 frozen fish meals for 238 food banks and shelters — a huge protein supply for families struggling to afford food. “Meat is super important but hard to get for people in need,” McManus said, calling this the biggest fish donation they’d ever received. The project saved tons of food that might have been thrown away, such as 35% of America’s uneaten groceries.
Kramarsyck felt proud that the farm’s earth-friendly ideas still helped people despite closing. Food buyer Andrew Katzer admired the farm’s effort. “Most failing businesses would give up, but the farm’s workers worked overtime to save every fish,” he said.
As frozen salmon reaches community kitchens across New York, the far-reaching impact of different groups working together is truly remarkable. Though LocalCoho’s business didn’t survive, its last gift became a powerful lesson in teamwork and hope — one fish fillet (鱼片) at a time.
4. What made LocalCoho decide to close its fish farm?
A. Water shortage. B. Lack of funds.
C. Low fish quality. D. Reduced food demand.
5. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Sorting vegetables was simple for volunteers.
B. The food bank had many fish-loving volunteers.
C. Handling the fish was pressing and challenging.
D. The food bank often dealt with large fish donations.
6. What can we learn from Andrew Katzer’s words?
A. He spoke highly of LocalCoho’s effort.
B. He suggested LocalCoho should expand.
C. He felt most businesses focused only on profit.
D. He doubted the effectiveness of the donation.
7. What does the author want to stress in this story?
A. The difficulty food banks face. B. The need to support fish farms.
C. The importance of courage. D. The power of teamwork.

Politicians often use humor to win public support, but scientists traditionally avoid jokes, worried that a lighthearted tone might reduce their authority and, consequently, the trustworthiness of their findings. A new study challenges this idea, showing that well-chosen humor can actually make scientists more likable and their research more trustworthy.
Led by Alexandra Lynn Frank from the University of Georgia, the research tested humor’s role in science communication through social media. The team created posts from a fictional scientist, Dr. Jamie Devon, sharing cartoons about artificial intelligence (AI). These posts used three humor styles: playful comparisons (like giving robots human characteristics), mean jokes about technology, or a mix of both. Some posts had no humor as a comparison.
Over 2,200 participants viewed these posts in an online experiment. They rated how funny the content was, how much they liked the scientist, and how credible the information seemed. Results revealed that light, positive humor — such as showing AI as a curious robot asking questions — made the scientist feel more approachable and the research more reliable. However, mean or unfriendly jokes reduced trust in the scientist.
“Humor helps people connect with scientists,” Frank explained. “When we laugh, we’re more open to listening.” But she stressed that jokes must feel natural, adding, “If the audience doesn’t find it funny, it could backfire.” For example, playful cartoons worked better than making fun of tech failures.
The study advises scientists to avoid tough jokes targeting individuals. Instead, gentle humor that simplifies complex ideas — like comparing climate change to the Earth having a “fever” — can build interest and fight misinformation. While focused on AI, these tips apply to fields like health or environmental science.
In today’s fast-paced digital world, humor could help scientists stand out on social media. Funny posts may attract more viewers, make tough topics easier to understand, and build public trust. The key is balancing fun with facts: lighthearted jokes don’t weaken expertise but create friendly, memorable connections.
Frank’s team hopes their findings encourage scientists to experiment with humor. As one participant noted, “A scientist who jokes feels more human— like someone I’d trust.”
8. Scientists avoid using jokes in their communication because they fear that jokes ______.
A. waste research time B. might confuse the public
C. make their work seem unreliable D. distract from scientific facts
9. What does the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4 probably mean?

The bald eagle, America’s national symbol of strength and freedom, has made an inspiring comeback from near extinction. Once endangered due to harmful pesticides and habitat loss, these great birds now fly across skies they nearly disappeared from decades ago. Their story is one of environmental recovery and cultural pride.
In the mid-20th century, the widespread use of the insecticide DDT caused eagle populations to drop sharply. The chemical weakened eggshells, making it nearly impossible for chicks to survive. By the 1980s, states like New Jersey had only one nesting (筑巢的) pair left.
But after DDT was prohibited in 1972, conservation (保护) efforts began. Scientists transported eagles from stable populations in Canada and used creative methods, like replacing real eggs with fake ones, to protect chicks. These efforts paid off: New Jersey now has over 300 nesting pairs, and the species was removed from the US endangered list in 2007.
“They’re a conservation success story,” says Maia Edwards of the American Bald Eagle Foundation. Eagles have proven adaptable, nesting even in busy areas like suburban neighborhoods. Kathy Clark, a wildlife expert in New Jersey, recalls young eagles surviving in a crowded town near New York. “They’re tough — like true Jersey birds,” she says with a sense of wonder.
However, challenges remain. Crashes with cars, habitat loss and diseases like bird flu threaten their recovery. Zoos and rescue centers, such as New Jersey’s Turtle Back Zoo, care for injured birds that can’t return to the wild. Conservationists stress the need for clean waterways and protected spaces to ensure eagles grow well.
Culturally, the bald eagle’s comeback has won hearts. Recent laws officially declared it America’s national bird, though many assumed it already was. Native American communities, who view eagles as spiritual symbols, supported the move. The birds also inspire sports fans — like the Philadelphia Eagles football team competing in this year’s Super Bowl.
For average Americans, spotting a bald eagle remains amazing. Birdwatcher Dan Day, who grew up rarely seeing them, now encounters eagles regularly. “It brightens up your whole day,” he says. Experts remind people to admire eagles from a distance, as troubling them harms their recovery.
12. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The history of the bald eagle. B. The success of conservation efforts.
C. The current situation of bald eagles. D. The challenges faced by bald eagles.
13. How does Kathy Clark feel about bald eagles living in crowded New Jersey towns?
A. She is surprised by their ability to adapt.
B. She worries they will trouble human life.
C. She thinks they are a danger to local pets.
D. She believes they belong only in distant areas.
14. Why does the author mention the Philadelphia Eagles football team?
A. To emphasize bald eagles’ cultural influence.
B. To compare sports strategies with conservation.
C. To question the destructive business of wildlife.
D. To highlight unique regional birdwatching spots.
15. What can be learned about bald eagles?
A. They attack humans who get too close.
B. They prefer living in zoos over the wild.
C. Birdwatchers never see them in urban areas.
D. Human interaction could slow their recovery.

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本文介绍了中国发射神舟二十二号飞船的背景与意义:因一艘受损飞船导致航天员暂时滞留天宫空间站,神舟二十二号的发射为航天员返程提供了保障。同时文章提及中国近年来的空间站任务进展,以及此次任务凸显出的中国在提升轨道应急响应能力方面的重要作用。
【36题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:中国于周二发射了神舟二十二号飞船,目的是协助接回一批因飞船受损而暂时滞留在中国空间站的航天员。固定搭配with the intention of 表示“抱有……的目的”,此处需用名词,intend的名词形式是intention。故填intention。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:本月早些时候,神舟二十号任务的另一组中国航天员因飞船舷窗受损,返回地球的时间推迟了九天。nine-day delay 是可数名词短语,此处泛指“一次九天的延误”,且nine以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:本月早些时候,神舟二十号任务的另一组中国航天员因飞船舷窗受损,返回地球的时间推迟了九天。主语the craft’s window与动词damage是被动关系;动作发生在过去,可用一般过去时的被动语态was damaged;也可强调“舷窗受损”这一动作发生在“返程推迟”之前,用过去完成时的被动语态had been damaged。故填was damaged/had been damaged。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他们最终搭乘此前运送替补乘组前往天宫的神舟二十一号飞船返回了地球。句子已有谓语动词returned,此处用非谓语动词作方式状语,use与逻辑主语They是主动关系,需用现在分词形式。故填using。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:虽然这三人已安全着陆,但当时替补乘组的另外三名航天员却暂时没有在紧急情况下可以保证返程的途径。固定搭配a way to do sth. 表示“做某事的方法/途径”,此处用动词不定式作后置定语。故填to return。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意:受损的神舟二十号飞船目前仍留在太空,稍后将被带回地球。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是The Shenzhou 20 spacecraft,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,需用which引导。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:近年来,作为中国快速发展的航天计划的一部分,中国航天员一直在执行前往天宫空间站的任务,最初是逐个舱段建造空间站。mission是可数名词,此处表示泛指多次任务,需用复数形式missions。故填missions。
【43题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:此次任务凸显了中国在提升轨道应急响应能力方面的重要作用。此处修饰名词role,需用形容词,influence的形容词形式是influential,意为“有影响力的”。故填influential。
【44题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:中国航天计划通过模块化的空间站设计,极大地提升了应对在轨紧急情况的能力。此处修饰动词improved,需用副词,dramatic的副词形式是dramatically,意为“显著地、极大地”。故填dramatically。

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The evening was peaceful after dinner. The wife, who was a teacher, was sitting on the sofa, with her students’ exam papers piled up around her. As she was carefully checking each paper, her husband was sitting next to her. There was silence in the room, except for the occasional sound of the husband’s fingers tapping on the phone screen. He needed to check some emails, though he was off work at home.
At that moment, their seven-year-old son came to his father and asked, “Dad, could you play with me?” “Wait for a moment, I am busy now,” the man answered, even not raising his head.
As the wife was flipping through the pages, she smiled at some of her students’ innocent and creative answers. But as she reached one, her face suddenly changed. Her eyes filled up with tears. Before she knew it, tears started rolling down her face.
Her husband, who noticed the action, looked up from his phone and saw his wife crying. Shocked, he asked worriedly, “Why are you crying? What happened?” The wife wiped her tears and tried to reply, “Yesterday, I gave a test to my first-grade students. The topic was simple: ‘My wish’.” Her husband, still shocked, asked, “But why is this making you so emotional?” She picked up the answer sheet, “Because a child’s wish has touched me. Let me read it out to you.”
Then the wife read:
“My wish: I want to become a phone. My father loves his phone and he takes care of it so much. He has time for his phone, but he seldom plays with me. When he is talking on his phone, he doesn’t listen to me, no matter how important my words are. So I want to become a phone. ”
As the wife finished reading, the husband looked at his wife and asked, “Who wrote this?” The wife replied, “Our son.”
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 husband’s face changed.

At that very moment, their son came to them holding something in his hands.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The husband’s face changed. He slowly looked down at the phone still resting in his hand. A deep realization struck him like lightning — his son felt neglected because of the device he spent so much time with, though he used it to work. The husband, who always considered himself a loving and responsible father, felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. He never imagined that his work on the device could have made his son feel so unwanted.
At that very moment, their son came to them holding something in his hands. With shining eyes, he excitedly ran towards his mother, wanting to show her what he had created. But before he could say anything, his mother hugged him tightly. The husband joined them, gently placing his hand on his son’s head, silently promising to change. It was then that he realized that in the race to stay connected to the digital world, he couldn’t lose sight of those who mattered the most — his family, no matter how busy he was.
