B At just 12 years old,Mia DaPonte has made history by becoming the youngest female Master Scuba Diver in the United States.This honorable title,awarded by organizations like PADI,represents an advanced level of training that most divers never achieve.Mia's remarkable joumey began with a simple inspiration:leaming that her mother had been a certified diver since high school. Despite her early interest,Mia had to wait until the minimum age of 10 to begin formal training.On her tenth birthday,she started in the challenging waters near her Rhode Island home-known for cold temperatures and poor visibility.Eaming her initial Open Water Diver cerificate required persistence,a quality her instrctors immediately recognized.One noted,"She sets her mind to something and gets it done." Over the next two years,Mia dedicated herself to the demanding process.PADI courses combine practical diving with classroom study,and Mia progressed through several leaming skills like first aid,underwater navigation,and fish identification.Her mother became her constantdiving buddy"by nrolling in the same courses,providing crucial support.Mia's commitment is reflected in her78 logged dives,far more than the 50 required for master certification. The final step presented a unique challenge:Mia had to wait until she tumed 12 to take her last two required courses.To completc the Advanced Open Water and Rescue Diver certifications,her family traveled to Mexico.There, on her 12th birthday,she passed the advanced course.The next day,she faced the strenuous Rescue Diver test.which included multiple dives and demonstrating the ability to rescue and bring back to life an unconscious adult diver-the most difficult task of all. While proud of her accomplishment,Mia sees it as just the beginning.She plans to pursue further diving education and dreams of becoming a marine biologist,with a special passion for studying sharks through tagging and tracking. 24.What made Mia's early training in Rhode Island particularly difficult? A.A lack of qualified diving instructors. B.Challenging storms and currents. C.Cold and low-visibility water conditions. D.The absence of required persistence. 25.What was key to Mia's progress during her two-year training? A Her mother's participation as her partner. B.The simplicity of the PADI course system. C.Her natural talent for underwater navigation. D.Financial support for intemational travel. 26.What does the word "strenuous"in pargraph 4 most likely mean? A.Tough and demanding. B.Enjoyable and relaxing. C.Complex and discouraging D.Advanced and rewarding 27.What does Mia's plan for the future show about her? A.She is satisfied with her current accomplishment.B.She views diving only as a personal hobby. C.She hopes to become a professional diving coach.D.She aims to connect her passion with science C The dawn chorus of birdsong has inspired poets and nature lovers for thousands of years,but the reason why birds start the day this way is a lasting mystery.Now,a series of experiments in zebra finches()suggests that while darkness prevents singing,birds build up a stronger motivation to sing in the night that causes them to burst into song at dawn. Satoshi Kojima at the Korea Brain Research Institute in Daegu,South Korea,and his colleagues studied laboratory-raised zebra finches in carefully controlled lighting conditions to adjust the timing of light and dark cycles. The team first pushed back the time at which the finches were exposed to sudden bright light to 3 hours later than 第3页/共8页 扫描全能王创建 可只 the actual dawn.The birds were awake but stayed silent in the artificial darkness,and when the light eventually did come on,the birds sang more intensely than usual.When the lights came on 3 hours earlier than true dawn,the birds still broke into a chorus,but without the same intensity as when they were forced to wait. "The birds are alrcady awake in the dark before the lights come on,"he says."But their natural singing is held back by the darkness.This holding back increases their motivation to sing,leading to a high rate of singing as rebound immediatcly after the lights are turned on." While this study only looked at one species,similar drivers may apply to other bird species,Kojima says.Diego Gil at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid,Spain,calls for caution.There are "numerodifferences between species in how,when and what birds sing in the dawn chorus",he says."This explains why many different explanations have been proposed to understand the phenomenon." 28.What did the zebra finch experiments aim to discover? A.Where birds stay at night. B.Why birds sing at dawn. C.When birds sleep most. D.How birds communicate. 29.How did the researchers carry out the experiment? A.By changing the timing of artificial dawn. B.By adjusting light strength in the lab. C.By comparing darkness and dawn behavior. D.By recording songs after real dawn. 30.What does the underlined word "rebound"in paragraph 4 mean? A.Sudden drop. B.Delayed effect. C.Rapid response. D.Repeated action. 31.What does Diego Gil suggest about applying the findings broadly? A.It is widely applicable. B.It needs careful thought C.It depends on species'habits. D.It ignores key differences. D Hydrogen fuel-cell(氢撚料电池)vehicles aren't just sources for science fiction or far-out experiments.Cars fueled by hydrogen,like the Toyota Mirai and Hyundai Nexo,are already here,and hydrogen fuel-cell technology is actively evolving and benefiting from billions of dollars in research.So,why are hydrogen cars virtually non-existent on U.S.roads today? "The answer is simple:economics,"Sergey Paltsev,a senior scientist at the MIT Energy Initiative told Popular Science.Politicians and automakers once advocated the fuel cell,which turns the chemical energy of hydrogen into electricity to drive an electric motor,as the future of passenger automobiles,but the falling cost of batteries and a large mumber ofelectrical fueling infrastructure (have propelled battery-electric cars well into the lead. A big switch to hydrogen cars would require cost-cutting and enormous infrastructure development.The Department of Energy's Alternative Fuels Data Center shows 55 public hydrogen fueling station locations in the U.S. today,almost only in California,while more than 68,000 active public electric vehicle charging stations across the country. "Nothing is going to change next year,or probably not in the next five years,but there are brighter pathways for hydrogen vehicles,"said Paltsev.It turns out that hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles have advantageous applications in medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks and aviation ()Besides,battery electric vehicles can be problematic when you have problems with range,fueling time or heavy loads. The current impractical application of hydrogen passenger vehicles in places like the U.S.is not a reason tojust give up"on hydrogen fuel-cell tech."We may need it for many other reasons in the future,"cautioned Paltsev,noting that geopolitical issues could prevent access to raw materials for batteries,thus making hydrogen cars suddenly more economically workable. 32.Why are hydrogen cars not commonly seen on U.S.roads today? A.Lack of public awareness. B.Unavailability of hydrogen fuel. C.Limited research and development. D.High costs and insufficient infrastructure 第4页/共8页 扫描全能王创建 可只 33.What is Sergey Paltsev's attitude towards hydrogen vehicles in the future? A.Hopeful. B.Doubtful. C.Indifferent. D.Confused. 34.What can be learned about hydrogen fuel-cell tech from the passage? A.It is already cost-effective for passenger vehicles. B.It fails to solve the problems with range or fueling time. C.It is practicable due to potential issues resulting from geopolitics. D.It has unsatisfactory applications in heavy-duty trucks and aviation. 35.What would be the best title to this passage? A.Battery-Electric Vehicles:A Glorious Era B.Hydrogen Vehicles:Struggling Yet Promising C.Why Are We Not Driving Electric Powered Cars? D.How to Build a Public Hydrogen Fueling Station? 第二节（共5小题：每小题25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。 How To Support Your Gut (For Better Digestion Do you have a sensitive gut?You know,the kind that bloats after meals,gets gassy after specific foods,or feels heavy out of nowhere.That kind of gut can be frustrating,especially when you worry about eating your favorite foods.36Just simple care that fits into real life.Here are some small habits that support digestion in quiet ways.

I rarely noticed what other people wore,so it never occurred to me that anyone would notice I had only two school dresses:a red dress with little yellow flowers and a blue one.The red dress was my favorite,so I wore it on Mondays and Tuesdays,the blue one on Wednesdays and Thursdays,then back to red each Friday. "Oh,"I stammered."I dropped chili on it yesterday.I,uh,can't wear it until Mama washes it."There wasno judgment in Sherry's question,just curiosity.For the first time in my life,though,I wondered,"Do my friends feel sorry for me?Am I poor?" After school,I hung my red dress in the closet I shared with my sister and went outside to sulk ()I climbed to the lowest branch of an oak tree and stared at my tiny house.My mother had bought it six months earlier, shortly after my father died from a heart attack. I made friends in our new town and visited their homes.Sherry lived in a brand-new house with a piano in her living room;another friend's huge old house had more rooms than I could count.Still,my friends preferred coming to my house probably because they were crazy about my mom,who baked chocolate cakes or buttered biscuits,played board games with us after supper,and read books in her soft voice.Their parents were nice but never played with us. I'd never compared my clothes,my little house,or my life with anyone else's until that day. Mom called through the screen door for me to set the table.I climbed down and shuffled into the kitchen.She was mashing potatoes in a big bowl.I reached for dinner plates,asking softly,"Mama,are we poor?" 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。 I thought my question might make her feel bad.Instead,she asked."What do you mean by poor? 第7页/供8页 扫描全能王创建 A few minutes later;I settled at the table with the new book mom bought for me. 第8项/供8页 扫描全能王创建
