A childhood dream has set one man on a remarkable journey to explore and document small towns across the United States, driven by the belief that “every town’s got a story”. Seth Varner, a 25-year-old historian from Nebraska, travels through the Midwest for his publishing company, Wandermore, which he founded in 2020 shortly after high school graduation. His mission is to capture the essence of each community — its landmarks, activities, and local restaurants — and share his findings through Wandermore’s online pages and self-published travel guides.
Varner’s inspiration goes back to an idea he shared with his father in elementary school: he wanted to visit every town in Nebraska. At the time, his father encouraged him to pursue the dream when he grew older, and it remained with him. Years later, Varner rediscovered his third-grade journal. “I was looking through it and thought, ‘I can realize that dream I had when I was 10 years old,’” he recalled. He quickly invited a close friend, and together they started their ambitious journey.
Over the past five years, Varner has attracted hundreds of thousands of online followers by highlighting the historic and unique aspects of small-town life. He has visited every incorporated town in Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, Kansas, North Dakota, and most recently Minnesota — a goal he completed just last weekend. Among the memorable stops was a Nebraska town with only one resident: a 90-year-old woman named Elsie, who serves as mayor, bartender, librarian, and honorary county officer.
Varner’s work has made a meaningful impact on the communities he features. Sarah Ferguson, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce in Blue Earth, Minnesota, explained, “Many of us lack large advertising budgets, so when Varner offered to highlight what we have here, I was very excited.” Blue Earth is famous for its 55-foot-tall Jolly Green Giant statue, honoring the region’s heritage of canned vegetables.
For Varner, this project is more than a personal goal — it is a way to preserve local history. “I can record a small town in a book so that people a hundred years from now can look back and see what their grandparents’ community was like,” he reflected.
4. What does Varner aim to do?
A. Collect third-grade journals. B. Sell canned vegetables online.
C. Manage Elsie’s local business. D. Document small towns’ stories.
5. What can be learned about Elsie from paragraph 3?
A. She lives in a Minnesota town alone. B. She plays multiple roles in her town.
C. She founded a local historical club. D. She inspired Varner’s third-grade dream.
6. Which of the following best describes Varner’s project?
A. Risky. B. Boring. C. Meaningful. D. Time-wasting.
7. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A travel magazine. B. A science textbook. C. A cookery book. D. A sports newspaper.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A

For a musician, playing an instrument is more than a skill — it is a powerful form of expression and a lifelong identity. Recently, innovative surgical (外科的) techniques have begun to help musicians preserve this vital part of themselves even while going through major brain procedures. These remarkable stories highlight how tailored medical interventions can protect a patient’s deepest passions.
One such story is that of Denise Bacon, a 65-year-old clarinetist (单簧管演奏家). Her musical journey, which included performing with the East Grinstead Concert Band, was abruptly cut short when she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease — a progressive nervous system disorder. The condition severely impacted her fine movement control. “I just couldn’t keep going… mainly because the fingers weren’t pressing the keys properly,” she recalled. Seeking relief, Bacon received an awake brain surgery that lasted four hours at King’s College Hospital in London. Led by Professor Keyoumars Ashkan, the procedure involved implanting electrodes into brain regions responsible for motor control. Remarkably, during the operation, Bacon was asked to play her clarinet. This allowed doctors to monitor how the electrical stimulation (刺激) affected her finger flexibility in real time. Bacon immediately felt a difference; “I remember my right hand being able to move with much more ease once the stimulation was applied, which improved my ability to play.”
Professor Ashkan had previously pioneered this musical approach. In 2020, he operated on Dagmar Turner, a 53-year-old violinist with a tumor (肿瘤) near the brain region controlling fine movements in her left hand. For Turner, the violin was her passion since childhood, and the possibility of losing her ability to play was heartbreaking. To safeguard her talent, Ashkan designed a unique plan; Turner would play her violin during the surgery. As the medical team worked, she performed pieces by composers like Mahler and Gershwin. This live response was crucial, enabling doctors to avoid areas critical for musical skill. The surgery was a success, removing over 90% of the tumor while preserving full function in her left hand.
These two cases illustrate a remarkable advancement in neurosurgery. They demonstrate that surgical goals can extend beyond mere survival to actively preserving a patient’s quality of life and identity.
8. What does the underlined word “abruptly” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Fortunately. B. Suddenly. C. Creatively. D. Secretly.
9. What was the effect of the electrical stimulation on Bacon?
A. Her hearing became unclear. B. She felt severe pain in her head.
C. Her right hand moved more easily. D. She forgot how to press clarinet keys.
10. Why did Turner play the violin during surgery?
A. To test her left hand’s flexibility. B. To calm herself during the operation.
C. To help doctors avoid key brain areas. D. To show her passion for Mahler’s works.
11. What is the suitable title for the text?
A. Brain Surgeries Protecting Musical Talent B. Musical Artists: Masters of Modern Sound
C. Innovative Surgical Techniques for Parkinson’s D. Violin and Clarinet: Musicians’ Lifelong Passions
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了创新的外科手术技术如何帮助音乐家在接受重大脑部手术时保护他们的音乐才能,强调了个性化医疗干预在保护患者最深层次热情方面的重要性。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“Her musical journey, which included performing with the East Grinstead Concert Band, was abruptly cut short when she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease — a progressive nervous system disorder. The condition severely impacted her fine movement control. (她的音乐之旅,包括与East Grinstead音乐会乐队一起演出,被abruptly打断,因为她被诊断出患有帕金森病——一种进行性神经系统疾病。这种情况严重影响了她的精细运动控制。)”可知,她被诊断出患有帕金森病,这严重影响了她的精细运动控制,所以她的音乐之旅被“突然”打断,划线词与B项“Suddenly(突然地)”意思相近。A. Fortunately幸运地;B. Suddenly突然地;C. Creatively有创造力地;D. Secretly秘密地。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I remember my right hand being able to move with much more ease once the stimulation was applied, which improved my ability to play. (我记得一旦施加刺激,我的右手就能更轻松地移动,这提高了我的演奏能力。)”可知,电刺激使Bacon的右手移动得更轻松。故选C项。

As the medical team worked, she performed pieces by composers like Mahler and Gershwin.This live response was crucial, enabling doctors to avoid areas critical for musical skill. (为保护其演奏才能,Ashkan设计了一项独特方案:Turner将在手术期间演奏小提琴。当医疗团队工作时,她演奏了马勒和格什温等作曲家的作品。这种实时反馈至关重要,使医生能够避开对音乐技能至关重要的区域。)”可知,Turner在手术过程中拉小提琴是为了帮助医生避开关键的大脑区域。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Recently, innovative surgical (外科的) techniques have begun to help musicians preserve this vital part of themselves even while going through major brain procedures. These remarkable stories highlight how tailored medical interventions can protect a patient’s deepest passions.

Huge areas of flowers may appear to be an endless source of food for pollinating (传粉) insects. However, recent research reveals that when beekeepers bring their managed honeybees to these flower-rich areas, local wild bumblebees can experience significant changes and potential stress.
The study, published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, concentrated on the heather (帚石楠) flowering in late summer in Ireland’s Wicklow Mountains. This time of year usually brings beekeepers, who move their honeybee boxes to the area, causing a sharp rise in the number of insects looking for food. Much like visitors flooding into a popular tourist site, these honeybees crowd around the local nectar (花蜜) sources.
Researchers, led by ecologist Dara Stanley, wondered how this short-term rise in insect numbers influenced the local wild bumblebee species, such as the white-tailed bumblebee. The researchers collected and examined both bumblebees and honeybees in the heather fields. Their results showed that having many honeybees around did not lower the overall count of bumblebees. However, bumblebees that were searching for food in areas with lots of honeybees tended to be, on average, smaller than those found in other places.
Scientists propose two explanations. First, bigger and more capable bumblebees might fly to places with fewer honeybees to escape competition, which means only smaller bees remain in the busier areas. Second, bumblebee groups that are under pressure from competition could send out worker bees to look for food earlier or more frequently, resulting in smaller, less-developed individuals.
The team also noticed changes in the bees’ actions. Smaller bumblebees showed a greater tendency to gather pollen (花粉) rather than nectar. Given that pollen is vital for feeding young bees, this behavioral shift indicates that bee communities facing limited resources might be focusing more on raising their next generation.
The number of wild pollinators is dropping worldwide, and additional competition from managed bees can make their situation even harder. This study reminds us to keep local ecological balance in mind when carrying out beekeeping activities.
12. Why does the author mention “visitors” in paragraph 2?
A. To show the vast number of honeybees. B. To explain nectar shortage in heather.
C. To stress beekeepers’ frequent visits. D. To describe visitors’ love for flowers.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Why big bumblebees avoid busy areas. B. Two ways honeybees compete for nectar.
C. When bumblebees send out worker bees. D. Two reasons for bumblebees’ smaller size.
14. What change was found in smaller bumblebees?
A. They flew far to avoid honeybees. B. They used nectar to feed themselves.
C. They ignored heather nectar entirely. D. They collected more pollen than nectar.
15. What can we infer about wild bumblebees?
A. They prefer heather fields with honeybees. B. They are threatened by managed honeybees.
C. They grow bigger with more nectar sources. D. They are increasing steadily with beekeeping.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究发现,养蜂人带来的人工饲养蜜蜂会与当地野生大黄蜂争夺花蜜资源,导致野生大黄蜂体型变小、行为改变,提醒我们养蜂时要注意维护当地生态平衡。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“This time of year usually brings beekeepers, who move their honeybee boxes to the area, causing a sharp rise in the number of insects looking for food. Much like visitors flooding into a popular tourist site, these honeybees crowd around the local nectar (花蜜) sources. (每年的这个时候通常都会吸引养蜂人,他们把蜂箱搬到这个地区,导致寻找食物的昆虫数量急剧增加。就像游客涌入热门旅游景点一样,这些蜜蜂聚集在当地的花蜜来源周围。)”可知,作者提到“游客”是为了形象地展示蜜蜂数量之多,就像游客涌入热门旅游景点一样,大量蜜蜂聚集在花蜜来源周围。故选A项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Scientists propose two explanations. First, bigger and more capable bumblebees might fly to places with fewer honeybees to escape competition, which means only smaller bees remain in the busier areas. Second, bumblebee groups that are under pressure from competition could send out worker bees to look for food earlier or more frequently, resulting in smaller, less-developed individuals. (科学家提出了两种解释。首先,体型更大、能力更强的大黄蜂可能会飞往蜜蜂较少的地区以逃避竞争,这意味着只有较小的蜜蜂留在更繁忙的地区。其次,受到竞争压力的大黄蜂群可能会更早或更频繁地派出工蜂去寻找食物,导致个体更小、发育不全。)”可知,第四段主要讨论了大黄蜂体型变小的两个原因。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The team also noticed changes in the bees’ actions. Smaller bumblebees showed a greater tendency to gather pollen (花粉) rather than nectar. (研究小组还注意到蜜蜂行为的变化。较小的大黄蜂更倾向于采集花粉而不是花蜜。)”可知,较小的大黄蜂采集的花粉比花蜜多。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The number of wild pollinators is dropping worldwide, and additional competition from managed bees can make their situation even harder. This study reminds us to keep local ecological balance in mind when carrying out beekeeping activities. (全球野生传粉者的数量正在下降,而人工饲养蜜蜂的额外竞争可能会使它们的处境更加艰难。这项研究提醒我们在开展养蜂活动时要牢记当地的生态平衡。)”可知,野生大黄蜂受到人工饲养蜜蜂的威胁。故选B项。

(情绪智力高的人保持专注和开放的心态,以更少的恐惧和更多的灵活性面对不确定性。例如,一个情绪智力高的学生搬到一个新城市可能会感到紧张。)”,说明情绪智力高的人在面对变化时的积极态度,并以搬到新城市的学生为例说明其可能会感到紧张。D项“Still, they can make new friends by joining a club or chatting after class (尽管如此,他们仍然可以通过加入俱乐部或课后聊天来结交新朋友)”进一步阐述了该学生如何应对这种紧张情绪,即通过积极行动来结交新朋友,与上文紧密相连,符合语境。故选D。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:21岁的大学生陈文博经常很高兴看到海外观众称赞他的团队关于西夏皇陵的短视频。be delighted to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“很高兴做某事”,所以空处应用动词不定式形式。故填to see。
【37题详解】

【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:该工作室最初是一个小型学生俱乐部,现在包括来自不同专业的60多名学生。club为可数名词单数,此处表示泛指“一个小型学生俱乐部”,且small发音以辅音音素开头,所以空处应用不定冠词a。故填a。

考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:自工作室成立以来,他们每周二发布一个双语视频,总共发布了243个视频,其中一些已被中国驻外大使馆分享。根据时间状语“since the studio started”可知,此处应用现在完成时,主语they表示复数概念,谓语动词应用复数形式。故填have published。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:团队一开始用手机拍摄,独立学习制作技巧。空处修饰动词learning,应用副词形式,作状语。故填independently。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:这种跨部门的合作大大提高了他们的制作质量。cross-departmental为形容词,作定语修饰名词,所以空处应用名词cooperation,表示“合作”,为不可数名词。故填cooperation。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:对于参与其中的学生来说,这段经历具有变革性。空处作非谓语动词,be involved in为固定搭配,意为“参与”,所以空处应用过去分词形式,作后置定语。故填involved。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:该团队利用当前事件,比如西夏皇陵被列为联合国教科文组织世界遗产,来创作及时的内容。take advantage of为固定搭配,意为“利用”,所以空处应用介词of。故填of。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:展望未来,他们正在准备一个“中国旅游”系列,向外国游客介绍更多的中国城市。空处作非谓语动词,look和逻辑主语they之间为主谓关系,应用现在分词形式,作状语,句首首字母需大写。故填Looking。
【45题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:展望未来,他们正在准备一个“中国旅游”系列,向外国游客介绍更多的中国城市。city为可数名词,由more可知,此处应用名词复数形式。故填cities。

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。
For thirty years of marriage, I’ve watched my husband hold fast to his love for football. Now 65, he still burns with passion for football — not watching it, but playing it, twice a week with his over-sixty non-professional team, the Geri-hatricks. The team is a group of men from all walks of life: librarians, journalists, teachers, and more. They’ve been playing together for five years, turning every practice into a lively gathering filled with laughter. Two years ago, their world lit up when they qualified for the City Senior Football Championship — a real, competitive tournament (锦标赛) with official knockout rounds, not just an exhibition match.
The news sent the “boys” into waves of pure excitement, but soon a worry cast a cloud over their joy: the community football field they’d relied on for years was suddenly booked for a month-long youth training camp. With only three months left before the championship, anxiety spread among them. They knew their competitors were younger and fitter, so consistent practice was their only chance to keep up. Instead of getting stuck in disappointment, my husband took charge immediately. He made countless calls to local sports clubs, schools, and even the owners of private athletic fields, leaving messages and asking for any available time he could get. He checked online booking platforms early in the morning and late at night, and even drove to six different venues in one day to ask for help.
Finally, his determination paid off. A small-town sports complex twenty minutes’ drive away agreed to let the Geri-hatricks use their unused grass field for four hours each evening for the remaining days. The team cheered when my husband broke the news, and they practiced tirelessly from then on, improving their strategies — focusing on short, quick passes to save energy and practicing set pieces over and over until everyone knew exactly what to do.
On the day of the championship, I volunteered to be the head cheerleader, arriving early at the stadium with a homemade sign that read “Go Geri-hatricks” The stadium stands were packed with senior players and their families, and the air was filled with shouts and cheers.
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 Geri-hatricks played their hearts out in every match.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the final whistle (哨子) sounded, the Geri-hatricks were declared the first-place winners.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 The Geri-hatricks played their hearts out in every match. While playing, they were covered in sweat, and their faces were flushed with excitement and passion. The fans’ continuous applause and cheers gave them the extra energy to catch up with their competitors. Finally, the Geri-hatricks team entered the final round of the championship. Everyone was nervous but full of hope. They certainly had the chance to win the first place. It was the home court advantage, the cheering of the fans, and the determination of the players that made them pull together and win.
When the final whistle (哨子) sounded, the Geri-hatricks were declared the first-place winners. The players jumped and rushed to hug each other tightly with excitement, cheers bursting out from their throats. Their families surrounded them, smiling and taking photos, as they watched the players proudly receive the shiny trophy. The players were shining with excitement and pride, and from their bright faces, you could clearly tell that this glorious moment was the most brilliant highlight of their year.

A childhood dream has set one man on a remarkable journey to explore and document small towns across the United States, driven by the belief that “every town’s got a story”. Seth Varner, a 25-year-old historian from Nebraska, travels through the Midwest for his publishing company, Wandermore, which he founded in 2020 shortly after high school graduation. His mission is to capture the essence of each community — its landmarks, activities, and local restaurants — and share his findings through Wandermore’s online pages and self-published travel guides.
Varner’s inspiration goes back to an idea he shared with his father in elementary school: he wanted to visit every town in Nebraska. At the time, his father encouraged him to pursue the dream when he grew older, and it remained with him. Years later, Varner rediscovered his third-grade journal. “I was looking through it and thought, ‘I can realize that dream I had when I was 10 years old,’” he recalled. He quickly invited a close friend, and together they started their ambitious journey.
Over the past five years, Varner has attracted hundreds of thousands of online followers by highlighting the historic and unique aspects of small-town life. He has visited every incorporated town in Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, Kansas, North Dakota, and most recently Minnesota — a goal he completed just last weekend. Among the memorable stops was a Nebraska town with only one resident: a 90-year-old woman named Elsie, who serves as mayor, bartender, librarian, and honorary county officer.
Varner’s work has made a meaningful impact on the communities he features. Sarah Ferguson, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce in Blue Earth, Minnesota, explained, “Many of us lack large advertising budgets, so when Varner offered to highlight what we have here, I was very excited.” Blue Earth is famous for its 55-foot-tall Jolly Green Giant statue, honoring the region’s heritage of canned vegetables.
For Varner, this project is more than a personal goal — it is a way to preserve local history. “I can record a small town in a book so that people a hundred years from now can look back and see what their grandparents’ community was like,” he reflected.
4. What does Varner aim to do?
A. Collect third-grade journals. B. Sell canned vegetables online.
C. Manage Elsie’s local business. D. Document small towns’ stories.
5. What can be learned about Elsie from paragraph 3?
A. She lives in a Minnesota town alone. B. She plays multiple roles in her town.
C. She founded a local historical club. D. She inspired Varner’s third-grade dream.
6. Which of the following best describes Varner’s project?
A. Risky. B. Boring. C. Meaningful. D. Time-wasting.
7. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A travel magazine. B. A science textbook. C. A cookery book. D. A sports newspaper.
C
For a musician, playing an instrument is more than a skill — it is a powerful form of expression and a lifelong identity. Recently, innovative surgical (外科的) techniques have begun to help musicians preserve this vital part of themselves even while going through major brain procedures. These remarkable stories highlight how tailored medical interventions can protect a patient’s deepest passions.
One such story is that of Denise Bacon, a 65-year-old clarinetist (单簧管演奏家). Her musical journey, which included performing with the East Grinstead Concert Band, was abruptly cut short when she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease — a progressive nervous system disorder. The condition severely impacted her fine movement control. “I just couldn’t keep going… mainly because the fingers weren’t pressing the keys properly,” she recalled. Seeking relief, Bacon received an awake brain surgery that lasted four hours at King’s College Hospital in London. Led by Professor Keyoumars Ashkan, the procedure involved implanting electrodes into brain regions responsible for motor control. Remarkably, during the operation, Bacon was asked to play her clarinet. This allowed doctors to monitor how the electrical stimulation (刺激) affected her finger flexibility in real time. Bacon immediately felt a difference; “I remember my right hand being able to move with much more ease once the stimulation was applied, which improved my ability to play.”
Professor Ashkan had previously pioneered this musical approach. In 2020, he operated on Dagmar Turner, a 53-year-old violinist with a tumor (肿瘤) near the brain region controlling fine movements in her left hand. For Turner, the violin was her passion since childhood, and the possibility of losing her ability to play was heartbreaking. To safeguard her talent, Ashkan designed a unique plan; Turner would play her violin during the surgery. As the medical team worked, she performed pieces by composers like Mahler and Gershwin. This live response was crucial, enabling doctors to avoid areas critical for musical skill. The surgery was a success, removing over 90% of the tumor while preserving full function in her left hand.
These two cases illustrate a remarkable advancement in neurosurgery. They demonstrate that surgical goals can extend beyond mere survival to actively preserving a patient’s quality of life and identity.
8. What does the underlined word “abruptly” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Fortunately. B. Suddenly. C. Creatively. D. Secretly.
9. What was the effect of the electrical stimulation on Bacon?
A. Her hearing became unclear. B. She felt severe pain in her head.
C. Her right hand moved more easily. D. She forgot how to press clarinet keys.
10. Why did Turner play the violin during surgery?
A. To test her left hand’s flexibility. B. To calm herself during the operation.
C. To help doctors avoid key brain areas. D. To show her passion for Mahler’s works.
11. What is the suitable title for the text?
A. Brain Surgeries Protecting Musical Talent B. Musical Artists: Masters of Modern Sound
C. Innovative Surgical Techniques for Parkinson’s D. Violin and Clarinet: Musicians’ Lifelong Passions
D
Huge areas of flowers may appear to be an endless source of food for pollinating (传粉) insects. However, recent research reveals that when beekeepers bring their managed honeybees to these flower-rich areas, local wild bumblebees can experience significant changes and potential stress.
The study, published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, concentrated on the heather (帚石楠) flowering in late summer in Ireland’s Wicklow Mountains. This time of year usually brings beekeepers, who move their honeybee boxes to the area, causing a sharp rise in the number of insects looking for food. Much like visitors flooding into a popular tourist site, these honeybees crowd around the local nectar (花蜜) sources.
Researchers, led by ecologist Dara Stanley, wondered how this short-term rise in insect numbers influenced the local wild bumblebee species, such as the white-tailed bumblebee. The researchers collected and examined both bumblebees and honeybees in the heather fields. Their results showed that having many honeybees around did not lower the overall count of bumblebees. However, bumblebees that were searching for food in areas with lots of honeybees tended to be, on average, smaller than those found in other places.
Scientists propose two explanations. First, bigger and more capable bumblebees might fly to places with fewer honeybees to escape competition, which means only smaller bees remain in the busier areas. Second, bumblebee groups that are under pressure from competition could send out worker bees to look for food earlier or more frequently, resulting in smaller, less-developed individuals.
The team also noticed changes in the bees’ actions. Smaller bumblebees showed a greater tendency to gather pollen (花粉) rather than nectar. Given that pollen is vital for feeding young bees, this behavioral shift indicates that bee communities facing limited resources might be focusing more on raising their next generation.
The number of wild pollinators is dropping worldwide, and additional competition from managed bees can make their situation even harder. This study reminds us to keep local ecological balance in mind when carrying out beekeeping activities.
12. Why does the author mention “visitors” in paragraph 2?
A. To show the vast number of honeybees. B. To explain nectar shortage in heather.
C. To stress beekeepers’ frequent visits. D. To describe visitors’ love for flowers.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Why big bumblebees avoid busy areas. B. Two ways honeybees compete for nectar.
C. When bumblebees send out worker bees. D. Two reasons for bumblebees’ smaller size.
14. What change was found in smaller bumblebees?
A. They flew far to avoid honeybees. B. They used nectar to feed themselves.
C. They ignored heather nectar entirely. D. They collected more pollen than nectar.
15. What can we infer about wild bumblebees?
A. They prefer heather fields with honeybees. B. They are threatened by managed honeybees.
C. They grow bigger with more nectar sources. D. They are increasing steadily with beekeeping.

Emotional intelligence (EQ) plays a key role in how we connect with others and handle life’s challenges. It affects far more than just our feelings — it shapes our relationships, mental health, work performance, decision-making and ability to adapt.
·People with strong emotional intelligence build better relationships. They listen carefully, express themselves clearly, and show heartfelt care for others’ feelings. ____16____, whether at home, school, or work. For example, a student who notices a classmate looks upset might ask, “Are you okay?” instead of making a loud joke.
·Good emotional intelligence also supports mental well-being. ____17____. By recognizing early signs of emotional overload, they stay calmer and recover faster from challenging situations.
·In teams or leadership roles, EQ makes a big difference. Emotionally intelligent leaders earn trust because they treat others with respect and concern. They handle disagreements calmly and create an environment where everyone feels valued. ____18____. Imagine a group project where one member is quiet. Instead of ignoring them, an emotionally aware teammate says, “We’d love to hear your thoughts.”
·____19____. Instead of reacting in a rush, people with high EQ pause, reflect, and consider both facts and feelings. This leads to wiser choices, especially during tough or tense situations.
·Finally, emotional intelligence helps people adapt to change. Life is full of unexpected shifts — new schools, jobs, or personal challenges.

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。
For thirty years of marriage, I’ve watched my husband hold fast to his love for football. Now 65, he still burns with passion for football — not watching it, but playing it, twice a week with his over-sixty non-professional team, the Geri-hatricks. The team is a group of men from all walks of life: librarians, journalists, teachers, and more. They’ve been playing together for five years, turning every practice into a lively gathering filled with laughter. Two years ago, their world lit up when they qualified for the City Senior Football Championship — a real, competitive tournament (锦标赛) with official knockout rounds, not just an exhibition match.
The news sent the “boys” into waves of pure excitement, but soon a worry cast a cloud over their joy: the community football field they’d relied on for years was suddenly booked for a month-long youth training camp. With only three months left before the championship, anxiety spread among them. They knew their competitors were younger and fitter, so consistent practice was their only chance to keep up. Instead of getting stuck in disappointment, my husband took charge immediately. He made countless calls to local sports clubs, schools, and even the owners of private athletic fields, leaving messages and asking for any available time he could get. He checked online booking platforms early in the morning and late at night, and even drove to six different venues in one day to ask for help.
Finally, his determination paid off. A small-town sports complex twenty minutes’ drive away agreed to let the Geri-hatricks use their unused grass field for four hours each evening for the remaining days. The team cheered when my husband broke the news, and they practiced tirelessly from then on, improving their strategies — focusing on short, quick passes to save energy and practicing set pieces over and over until everyone knew exactly what to do.
On the day of the championship, I volunteered to be the head cheerleader, arriving early at the stadium with a homemade sign that read “Go Geri-hatricks” The stadium stands were packed with senior players and their families, and the air was filled with shouts and cheers.
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 Geri-hatricks played their hearts out in every match.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the final whistle (哨子) sounded, the Geri-hatricks were declared the first-place winners.
