In ancient China, people built pavilions and towers mainly in memory of historical events and achievements. The Yellow Crane (鹤) Tower is one of the four great towers of China. Throughout history, poets, writers and artists have travelled to the tower. Cui Hao’s famous work “The crane, once gone, has never returned...” makes the Yellow Crane Tower well-known to the world. The present Yellow Crane Tower was built in the 1980s, but the tower has been in different forms since at least AD 223. The original (起初的) building is believed to have been built as a watchtower for the army by Sun Quan. After hundreds of years, it gradually became a beautiful place to visit. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the tower was destroyed and rebuilt several times. In 1884, it was completely destroyed in a fire and was not rebuilt until 1981. In 1981, the local government decided to rebuild the tower at a new location, about one kilometer from the original one. It took four years to finish rebuilding this tower. The Yellow Crane Tower offers visitors many things to see. The exhibition themes vary from floor to floor. The theme of the first floor is legends (传说). On the wall, there is a nine-meter long and six-meter wide painted porcelain (瓷) picture. It shows clouds, rivers and cranes. The third floor mainly shows poems about the tower in different dynasties. On top of the tower, visitors are treated to a wonderful view of the Yangtze River, its bridge and the buildings in Wuhan City.

In March 2025, the ship was shown to the public in Beijing. In April 2025, this ship set sail (启航) in Wuhu, Anhui Province, and it has now completed its final tests. The Hetun Weilan 01’s most amazing thing is about its power box. The box can be changed fast. It takes only 5 minutes to change one power box, and the full power box change is finished in less than 30 minutes—more than 10 times faster than traditional powered ships that need 5 to 8 hours to get their power back. The process of changing the power box is not only quick but also very easy. This fast way of getting power makes the ship spend less time at the stop and start sailing again soon. Besides, it has many other advantages (优点). It can hold 3,000 tons of things the same as 300 trucks. A 300-kilometer trip that used to take five days now only takes three days—much faster! What’s more, this ship has cut running costs by 65%. It also doesn’t produce any dirty air while sailing, making it very good for the earth. Behind these achievements is a smart system, just like the “station-road-cloud” system of high-speed railway, and it has formed a new “ship-stop-cloud” model. In short, the Hetun Weilan 01 is not just a great new ship, but also a smart choice for moving things on water. 1．When and where did Hetun Weilan 01 set sail? A．In April 2025 in Wuhu. B．In March 2025 in Wuhu. C．In April 2025 in Beijing. D．In April 2025 in Wuhan. 2．What is the most amazing thing about Hetun Weilan 01? A．It has a smart system. B．It can carry 3,000 tons of things. C．Its power box can be changed quickly. D．It can sail very far in a day. 3．Which can show the advantages of Hetun Weilan 01? A．hold ↑, speed ↓, cost ↓, pollution ↓. B．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↓, pollution ↓. C．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↓, pollution ↑. D．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↑, pollution ↓. 4．What smart model does Hetun Weilan 01 have? A．Ship-station-cloud. B．Station-road-cloud. C．Ship-road-cloud. D．Ship-stop-cloud. 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．The history of a special ship. B．The introduction of a special ship.

There’s actually a scientific reason behind this, and it has to do with how light affects your brain. Natural light, especially in the morning, helps reset your body clock, which is known as the circadian rhythm（昼夜节律）. When light enters your eyes, it sends signals to your brain to reduce the production of melatonin（褪黑激素）, the chemical that makes you feel sleepy. At the same time, it encourages the release of cortisol（皮质醇）, the hormone（荷尔蒙）that helps you feel awake. This is why a sunny morning can make you feel refreshed and ready for the day. For students, getting enough morning light can be especially helpful. Studies show that getting enough natural light in the morning can help improve concentration and memory. It also helps regulate（调节）moods, making you feel calmer and more positive. On cloudy days or when you stay indoors, your body may not receive these clear signals, which can make you feel less focused. A simple way to use this knowledge is to spend some time outside every morning. Even 10-15 minutes of walking or eating breakfast near a window can make a big difference. If you live in an area with long winters or little sunlight, using a bright lamp can also help. Sunlight does more than just light up the world. It helps our bodies work properly, boosts our moods, and prepares us to learn and grow. So the next time you see the morning sun, remember: It’s not just a new day; it’s science at work. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．What can we know from Paragraph 2? A．Our body clock is called cortisol. B．Cortisol is the chemical that makes us feel tired. C．Morning light helps us produce more melatonin. D．Morning light tells our brains to stop making us sleepy. 2．Why would people use a bright lamp in the morning according to the text? A．Because it is cheap and easy to get. B．Because it can help people eat better. C．Because it makes the room look more beautiful. D．Because it can take the place of sunlight in some situations. 3．What is the main idea of the third paragraph? A．Why people feel sleepy on cloudy days. B．The effect of light on scores and moods. C．The benefits of morning light for students. D．How to get more natural light in the morning. 4．What does the underlined word “boosts” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Improves. B．Accepts. C．Punishes. D．Values. 5．Which would be the best title for the text? A．How to Sleep Better at Night B．The Science of Morning Sunlight C．Why Students Should Stay Indoors D．The Importance of Having Enough Sleep 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，解释了晨光影响人体生物钟的科学原理，介绍了晨光对学习、情绪的益处，以及缺乏晨光的影响和替代方法。 1．根据第二段“light enters your eyes...reduce the production of melatonin...makes you feel sleepy...encourages the release of cortisol... helps you feel awake”可知，晨光会让大脑减少让人困倦的褪黑激素，从而让人清醒。 2．根据第四段“in an area with long winters or little sunlight, using a bright lamp can also help”可知，在缺乏阳光的情况下，明亮的灯可以替代晨光。 3．第三段主要讲晨光对学生的好处：提升专注力、记忆力，调节情绪等。 4．根据“boosts our moods, and prepares us to learn and grow”可知，“boosts”意为“提升、改善”。 5．全文围绕“晨光的科学作用”展开，解释其对人体的影响及相关原理。 提升培优限时练5篇，建议用时25分钟，实际用时 分钟 Meow： Welcome Your New Friend!A new cat or kitten is coming to live with you—how exciting!

Clothes are cheaper and easier to buy than ever before. But there is a hidden price: the environment. Every year, about 92 million tons of clothing are thrown away. That is like a garbage truck full of clothes being thrown away every second. Imagine all those shirts, pants, and dresses ending up in landfills (垃圾填埋场)! To solve this problem, a group of Austrian researchers led by Thomas Harter has a smart idea: turn old clothes into stronger packaging paper. Instead of letting clothes rot (腐烂) in landfills, they give them a second life. The process starts with cutting the clothes into tiny pieces. These pieces are put in a water-based solution (溶液), and then they go through a special machine. This step separates the cotton fibers (纤维). After that, the fibers are mixed with recycled paper pulp (纸浆). Here’s the cool part: textile (纺织品) fibers are much longer than paper fibers. Because of this, they make the final paper stronger. The new paper looks a bit brown and has small spots (点) of color from the old clothes. But it works well for packaging and can be recycled just like normal paper. The project is still new, but the team hopes to improve it by using some safe chemicals. This would make the process faster, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly. When the new method is ready, it could help reduce textile waste around the world. One more good thing? The new paper is stronger, so it can be used longer. This means less paper will be thrown away when making packaging. 1．How does the writer lead into the topic of the passage? A．By listing the steps to recycle old clothes. B．By telling a story about Austrian researchers. C．By asking a question about the environment. D．By showing the environmental problem caused by fast fashion. 2．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The way to cut the clothes into tiny pieces. B．The environmental advantages the project can bring. C．The process of turning old clothes into packaging paper. D．The differences between textile fibers and paper fibers. 3．What makes the new paper stronger? A．Paper fibers. B．Small spots. C．Textile fibers. D．Safe chemicals. 4．What’s the theme of the passage? A．Art. B．Culture. C．Travel. D．Environment. 5．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了快时尚带来的环境问题，以及奥地利研究人员将旧衣服变成更坚固的包装纸这一解决快时尚环境问题的新想法，包括制作过程、新纸的特点、项目改进方向及新方法的意义等。 1．文章第一段提到“Fast fashion has changed the way we dress. Clothes are cheaper and easier to buy than ever before. But there is a hidden price: the environment. Every year, about 92 million tons of clothing are thrown away...”，表明作者通过展示快时尚造成的环境问题来引出文章话题。 2．第三段“The process starts with cutting the clothes into tiny pieces. These pieces are put in a water-based solution (溶液), and then they go through a special machine. This step separates the cotton fibers (纤维). After that, the fibers are mixed with recycled paper pulp (纸浆).”，主要讲述了将旧衣服变成包装纸的过程。 3．第四段“textile (纺织品) fibers are much longer than paper fibers. Because of this, they make the final paper stronger.”，说明是纺织品纤维让新纸更坚固。 4．文章围绕快时尚带来的环境问题以及解决该问题的将旧衣服变成包装纸的方法展开，主题是环境。 5．文章开头指出快时尚带来的环境问题，中间详细阐述将旧衣服变成包装纸的过程、新纸特点等，结尾说明项目前景及好处，是总—分—总结构。 Unitree Robots: Stars of the 2026 Spring Festival Gala (春晚) The 2026 Spring Festival Gala, China’s most beloved New Year’s show, welcomed a group of special stars—Unitree humanoid robots.

Besides Iran, this festival is also celebrated in Afghanistan, Turkey and other countries. ②On the evening of the last Wednesday of the old year, people hold a “fire blessing” activity to welcome the New Year. Bonfires (篝火) are lit in the streets. People dance around the bonfires, saying “Yellow to you, red to me” to wish to stay away from illness and be healthy in the New Year. Later, young girls go from door to door to visit relatives and neighbors, asking for candies—a custom believed to bring good luck, which is called “seeking good luck”. They also hide in the dark or at the corners of the streets to listen to what the passersby are saying. They use the first sentence they hear to predict their luck for the New Year. ③On the eve of the festival, the whole family gathers to have a big reunion dinner. The table is always put with seven special things on it. For example, sugar means a sweet life, and gold coins mean wealth. ④A trip is the last activity of Nowruz. Iranians believe that “thirteen” is an unlucky number, so on the 13th day, the whole family goes on an outing to avoid bad luck instead of staying indoors. Parks are filled with people who are enjoying the pleasure of nature. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．Which month might Nowruz be in? A．In March. B．In June. C．In August.

Following a trial (试验), some patients refused to have theirs turned off. The trial, which began in 2018, involved five people between the ages of 22 and 60. They all had problems which were related to mental activities like thinking or reasoning after having serious brain injuries for 3 years or more. The injuries meant they had difficulty performing some tasks. For the trial, doctors implanted (植入) a tiny device into each patient’s brain during an operation. The device used “deep brain stimulation” (DBS), which rebuilds connections between neurons. Neurons are tiny cells, and there are billions of them in the brain. Whenever you do something, chemical and electrical signals move between your neurons. The tiny device applied electricity to parts of the brain. The trial was the first to focus DBS on a part of the brain that deals with consciousness (意识). It helped people be aware of what is around them and be able to respond (作出反应) to it. After the devices were put into the brains, the patients in the study had them turned on for 90 days, for 12 hours a day. This had a great influence on their lives. They could suddenly do things, like reading a book or playing video games, that used to be impossible because of their brain injuries. They also reported feeling less tired and could get through the day without napping. After 90 days, researchers wanted to turn off some of the patients’ devices. Two people were so happy with the difference the device made in their lives that they refused. Finally, one person agreed to have theirs turned off—and their brain performance got worse. Gina Arata, a patient who took part in the trial, said, “I can remember how much money is in my bank account. I wasn’t able to read, but after the implant I bought a book... and loved it and remembered it.” Nicholas Schiff, one of the authors of the study, called it a “pioneering moment.” Scientists hope the implant will change the lives of more people with serious long-term brain injuries. 1．Which of the following is TRUE about the patients in the trial? A．They have problems with mental activities. B．The patients include both children and adults. C．Only four patients are invited to be in the trial D．All of them get injured almost at the same time. 2．What does the word “It” refer to in Paragraph 2? A．The research team. B．The serious brain injury. C．The use of DBS device. D．The chemical signal between neurons. 3．Which is NOT mentioned as a result of using the device? A．Patients will feel less tired than before. B．Patients will have more need for napping. C．Patients may have the ability to read books. D．Patients’ memory for daily tasks will be better. 4．What is the right order of the following steps of the trial? a. Researchers tried to turn off some patients’ devices. b. Doctors implanted tiny devices into patients’ brains. c. Patients had their devices turned on for 12 hours daily. d. Two patients refused to let researchers turn off the device. e. Patients showed improved cognitive abilities like reading. A．a-b-c-e-d B．a-b-d-e-c C．b-c-e-a-d D．b-e-c-a-d 5．Which is the best title for this article? A．Brain Surgery Risks: A Patient’s Story B．The Way Neurons Send Signals in the Brain C．A New Device for Patients with Brain Injuries D．A New Discovery of A Cure For All Brain Injuries 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种用于治疗严重长期脑损伤的深部脑刺激DBS设备的临床试验：包括试验对象、设备原理、试验过程与结果，以及该设备的意义——科学家希望它能改变更多严重脑损伤患者的生活。 1．细节理解题。根据“They all had problems which were related to mental activities like thinking or reasoning after having serious brain injuries for 3 years or more.”可知，他们都在遭受严重脑损伤三年或更久后，出现了与思考、推理等心智活动相关的问题。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据“The trial was the first to focus DBS on a part of the brain that deals with consciousness. It helped people be aware of what is around them and be able to respond to it.”可知，该试验首次将深部脑刺激DBS聚焦于大脑中负责处理意识的区域。这一做法帮助人们感知周围的事物，并能够对其作出反应，因此此处it指代DBS设备的使用。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“They also reported feeling less tired and could get through the day without napping.”可知，他们还反馈说自己没那么容易累了，并且能够一整天不午睡也撑得下来，B项表达错误。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据“doctors implanted a tiny device into each patient’s brain during an operation...the patients in the study had them turned on for 90 days, for 12 hours a day...They could suddenly do things, like reading a book or playing video games...After 90 days, researchers wanted to turn off some of the patients’ devices...Two people were so happy with the difference the device made in their lives that they refused.”可知，医生在手术中为每位患者的大脑植入了一个微型装置；参与研究的患者将这些装置开启了90天，每天开启12小时；他们突然能够做到一些原本因脑损伤而无法完成的事，比如看书或玩电子游戏；90天后，研究人员想要关闭部分患者的装置；有两名患者对装置给他们生活带来的改变感到非常满意，因此拒绝了关闭装置的要求，对应b-c-e-a-d。故选C。 5．最佳标题题。根据文章可知，本章围绕治疗严重脑损伤的DBS设备临床试验展开，包括试验对象、原理、过程、结果及意义，因此文章标题应为A New Device for Patients with Brain Injuries。故选C。 ①In the South China Sea, there is a group of Jiaoren, or Chinese mermaids, whose tears become pearls (珍珠) after they fall.

A．The God of Water—Gong Gong B．The Iron Eater—Feibao C．A valuable book—Shan Hai Jing D．A Mythical Legend of Zhu Rong 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文介绍了先秦古籍《山海经》。 1．推理判断题。根据“In the South China Sea, there is a group of Jiaoren, or Chinese mermaids, whose tears become pearls (珍珠) after they fall. To the north of Kunlun Mountains, there is a monster called Xiangliu, which has nine heads with human faces but the body of a snake.”可知，作者是通过举两个例子开始这篇文章的。故选B。 2．主旨大意题。根据第二段内容可知，本段介绍了《山海经》的年代、篇幅、内容构成（山川、故事等），是对《山海经》的基本介绍。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。前文提到根据“Then he brought fire from heaven to the world and taught humans how to use it.”可知，这里“it”指代前文的“fire”。故选C。 4．篇章结构题。根据全文可知，文章第一段引出《山海经》；第二段介绍《山海经》；第三、四段讲祝融的故事和飞宝的故事；第五段总结《山海经》的重要性及影响。故选A。 5．最佳标题题。根据全文可知，文章围绕《山海经》展开，介绍其内容、故事及重要性。C选项“一本珍贵的书——《山海经》”最能概括主旨。故选C。 ①Global (全球的) warming is bringing great trouble to food growth around the world and rice is especially easy to get hurt by high temperatures. It grows slowly and the production is much less. Many crops even dry up and die completely. This makes farmers have bad harvests and puts local food safety in danger. To solve this serious problem, Chinese scientists have worked hard in both labs and test fields for years, and finally developed a new kind of rice successfully. ②On December 3, 2025, their research result was published in Cell, a famous international science magazine. This new rice can survive high temperatures—it can live through different levels of high temperatures. ③How can this special rice stay safe in high temperatures? When high heat reaches its cells, two special genes (基因)—DGK7 and MdPDE1—start working at once. First, the DGK7 gene helps the cell make a special chemical signal (信号). Next, this chemical signal travels inside the cell, reaches the MdPDE1 gene, and turns it on. Then the MdPDE1 gene helps the cell make a second chemical signal. Finally, this second signal makes many other helpful genes in the cell start working. They all work together to help the rice get used to hot conditions quickly. ④ ▲ To create this amazing rice, scientists used a special tool, CRISPR-Cas9, to improve these two genes. After many experiments, they carefully put the improved genes into rice plants. This new rice not only protects its pollen (花粉)—which is very important for rice production—from being hurt by heat, but also keeps growing healthily in high temperatures. It makes sure there is enough food as the world gets warmer. It also helps farmers get more harvests even in very hot years, bringing new hope to global food safety. However, there are still some practical problems to solve before it can help more farmers around the world. 1．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By asking a question. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving an example. D．By showing a problem. 2．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 3? A．The cell. B．The DGK7 gene. C．The chemical signal. D．The MdPDE1 gene. 3．Which sentence can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 4? A．Many countries are interested in this new rice. B．So how did scientists develop this kind of rice? C．Farmers also took part in the new rice research. D．The two genes are not helpful for common rice at all. 4．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The new rice may be of great help to farmers in the future. B．Scientists have solved the problems of food safety already. C．CRISPR-Cas9 is the only tool to improve rice genes at present. D．The research result was published in a Chinese magazine in 2025. 5．What will the writer most probably talk about next? A．How global warming started and how it hurts crops. B．Why common rice cannot grow well in hot weather. C．How this gene technology is different from other technologies. D．What practical problems need solving before farmers grow the new rice. 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．B 4．A 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了全球变暖给世界粮食生长带来巨大麻烦，水稻尤其易受高温影响。为解决这一问题，中国科学家经过多年努力成功研发出一种新型水稻，介绍了这种水稻能耐高温的原因、培育方式以及它对全球粮食安全的意义，同时也指出在推广前还有一些实际问题需要解决。 1．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Global (全球的) warming is bringing great trouble to food growth around the world and rice is especially easy to get hurt by high temperatures. It grows slowly and the production is much less. Many crops even dry up and die completely. This makes farmers have bad harvests and puts local food safety in danger.”可知，作者通过展示全球变暖给水稻生长带来的一系列问题，如生长缓慢、产量降低、农作物干枯死亡、农民收成不好以及当地食品安全受到威胁等，来引出话题。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Next, this chemical signal travels inside the cell, reaches the MdPDE1 gene, and turns it on. Then the MdPDE1 gene helps the cell make a second chemical signal.”可知，这个化学信号在细胞内传播，到达MdPDE1基因并将其激活，然后MdPDE1基因帮助细胞产生第二个化学信号，所以这里的“it”指代的是“The MdPDE1 gene”。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“To create this amazing rice, scientists used a special tool, CRISPR - Cas9, to improve these two genes. After many experiments, they carefully put the improved genes into rice plants.”可知，此段主要讲述了科学家如何培育出这种新型水稻，所以前面应该是提出关于科学家如何培育这种水稻的问题。选项B“So how did scientists develop this kind of rice?”符合语境。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“It also helps farmers get more harvests even in very hot years, bringing new hope to global food safety. However, there are still some practical problems to solve before it can help more farmers around the world.”可知，这种新型水稻即使在非常炎热的年份也能帮助农民获得更多收成，给全球粮食安全带来新希望，说明这种新型水稻未来可能对农民有很大帮助。故选A。 5．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“However, there are still some practical problems to solve before it can help more farmers around the world.”可知，在新型水稻能帮助更多世界各地的农民之前，还有一些实际问题需要解决，所以接下来作者最有可能谈论的是在农民种植这种新型水稻之前需要解决哪些实际问题。故选D。 HUAWEI Eyewear 2 is not just a pair of common glasses, but a smart product that brings convenience to people’s daily life, especially for students and technology lovers.

The four great towers are all famous for all kinds of poems and folk stories. In ancient China, people built pavilions and towers mainly in memory of historical events and achievements. The Yellow Crane (鹤) Tower is one of the four great towers of China. Throughout history, poets, writers and artists have travelled to the tower. Cui Hao’s famous work “The crane, once gone, has never returned...” makes the Yellow Crane Tower well-known to the world. The present Yellow Crane Tower was built in the 1980s, but the tower has been in different forms since at least AD 223. The original (起初的) building is believed to have been built as a watchtower for the army by Sun Quan. After hundreds of years, it gradually became a beautiful place to visit. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the tower was destroyed and rebuilt several times. In 1884, it was completely destroyed in a fire and was not rebuilt until 1981. In 1981, the local government decided to rebuild the tower at a new location, about one kilometer from the original one. It took four years to finish rebuilding this tower. The Yellow Crane Tower offers visitors many things to see. The exhibition themes vary from floor to floor. The theme of the first floor is legends (传说). On the wall, there is a nine-meter long and six-meter wide painted porcelain (瓷) picture. It shows clouds, rivers and cranes. The third floor mainly shows poems about the tower in different dynasties. On top of the tower, visitors are treated to a wonderful view of the Yangtze River, its bridge and the buildings in Wuhan City. Next time you want to travel, the Yellow Crane Tower may be a good choice. 1．What were pavilions and towers mainly used for in ancient China? A．Offering the army a place to rest.

China has built the world’s first special ship, which was like a railway on the sea. It was called the Hetun Weilan 01. In March 2025, the ship was shown to the public in Beijing. In April 2025, this ship set sail (启航) in Wuhu, Anhui Province, and it has now completed its final tests. The Hetun Weilan 01’s most amazing thing is about its power box. The box can be changed fast. It takes only 5 minutes to change one power box, and the full power box change is finished in less than 30 minutes—more than 10 times faster than traditional powered ships that need 5 to 8 hours to get their power back. The process of changing the power box is not only quick but also very easy. This fast way of getting power makes the ship spend less time at the stop and start sailing again soon. Besides, it has many other advantages (优点). It can hold 3,000 tons of things the same as 300 trucks. A 300-kilometer trip that used to take five days now only takes three days—much faster! What’s more, this ship has cut running costs by 65%. It also doesn’t produce any dirty air while sailing, making it very good for the earth. Behind these achievements is a smart system, just like the “station-road-cloud” system of high-speed railway, and it has formed a new “ship-stop-cloud” model. In short, the Hetun Weilan 01 is not just a great new ship, but also a smart choice for moving things on water. 1．When and where did Hetun Weilan 01 set sail? A．In April 2025 in Wuhu. B．In March 2025 in Wuhu. C．In April 2025 in Beijing. D．In April 2025 in Wuhan. 2．What is the most amazing thing about Hetun Weilan 01? A．It has a smart system. B．It can carry 3,000 tons of things. C．Its power box can be changed quickly. D．It can sail very far in a day. 3．Which can show the advantages of Hetun Weilan 01? A．hold ↑, speed ↓, cost ↓, pollution ↓. B．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↓, pollution ↓. C．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↓, pollution ↑. D．hold ↑, speed ↑, cost ↑, pollution ↓. 4．What smart model does Hetun Weilan 01 have? A．Ship-station-cloud. B．Station-road-cloud. C．Ship-road-cloud. D．Ship-stop-cloud. 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．The history of a special ship. B．The introduction of a special ship.

There’s actually a scientific reason behind this, and it has to do with how light affects your brain. Natural light, especially in the morning, helps reset your body clock, which is known as the circadian rhythm（昼夜节律）. When light enters your eyes, it sends signals to your brain to reduce the production of melatonin（褪黑激素）, the chemical that makes you feel sleepy. At the same time, it encourages the release of cortisol（皮质醇）, the hormone（荷尔蒙）that helps you feel awake. This is why a sunny morning can make you feel refreshed and ready for the day. For students, getting enough morning light can be especially helpful. Studies show that getting enough natural light in the morning can help improve concentration and memory. It also helps regulate（调节）moods, making you feel calmer and more positive. On cloudy days or when you stay indoors, your body may not receive these clear signals, which can make you feel less focused. A simple way to use this knowledge is to spend some time outside every morning. Even 10-15 minutes of walking or eating breakfast near a window can make a big difference. If you live in an area with long winters or little sunlight, using a bright lamp can also help. Sunlight does more than just light up the world. It helps our bodies work properly, boosts our moods, and prepares us to learn and grow. So the next time you see the morning sun, remember: It’s not just a new day; it’s science at work. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．What can we know from Paragraph 2? A．Our body clock is called cortisol.

Clothes are cheaper and easier to buy than ever before. But there is a hidden price: the environment. Every year, about 92 million tons of clothing are thrown away. That is like a garbage truck full of clothes being thrown away every second. Imagine all those shirts, pants, and dresses ending up in landfills (垃圾填埋场)! To solve this problem, a group of Austrian researchers led by Thomas Harter has a smart idea: turn old clothes into stronger packaging paper. Instead of letting clothes rot (腐烂) in landfills, they give them a second life. The process starts with cutting the clothes into tiny pieces. These pieces are put in a water-based solution (溶液), and then they go through a special machine. This step separates the cotton fibers (纤维). After that, the fibers are mixed with recycled paper pulp (纸浆). Here’s the cool part: textile (纺织品) fibers are much longer than paper fibers. Because of this, they make the final paper stronger. The new paper looks a bit brown and has small spots (点) of color from the old clothes. But it works well for packaging and can be recycled just like normal paper. The project is still new, but the team hopes to improve it by using some safe chemicals. This would make the process faster, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly. When the new method is ready, it could help reduce textile waste around the world. One more good thing? The new paper is stronger, so it can be used longer. This means less paper will be thrown away when making packaging. 1．How does the writer lead into the topic of the passage? A．By listing the steps to recycle old clothes. B．By telling a story about Austrian researchers. C．By asking a question about the environment. D．By showing the environmental problem caused by fast fashion. 2．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The way to cut the clothes into tiny pieces. B．The environmental advantages the project can bring. C．The process of turning old clothes into packaging paper. D．The differences between textile fibers and paper fibers. 3．What makes the new paper stronger? A．Paper fibers. B．Small spots. C．Textile fibers. D．Safe chemicals. 4．What’s the theme of the passage? A．Art. B．Culture. C．Travel. D．Environment. 5．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． Unitree Robots: Stars of the 2026 Spring Festival Gala (春晚) The 2026 Spring Festival Gala, China’s most beloved New Year’s show, welcomed a group of special stars—Unitree humanoid robots. Teaming up with young kung fu students, they put on an amazing performance called Martial BOT that amazed millions of viewers. These 1.8-meter-tall robots showed off incredible skills. They did backflips over tables, jumped 3 meters high in the air, and even spun like breakdancers in a move called Airflare. What’s more, dozens of robots moved together in perfect order, changing positions at 4 meters per second without bumping into each other. Their “smart hands” could quickly grab and switch kung fu props like nunchakus and long swords, just like real martial artists. Behind this great show was smart technology. The robots used an AI positioning system that helped them stay on track even after crazy moves. They also had a special control system that let all robots move in sync with almost no delay. This wasn’t Unitree’s first Gala. In 2025, they danced yangge, a traditional folk dance. This year’s performance showed how fast China’s robot technology is growing.

It marks the Iranian New Year, lasting from the 1st to the 13th day of the first month in the Iranian calendar. This time falls right in spring, so Nowruz also marks the true start of spring. Besides Iran, this festival is also celebrated in Afghanistan, Turkey and other countries. ②On the evening of the last Wednesday of the old year, people hold a “fire blessing” activity to welcome the New Year. Bonfires (篝火) are lit in the streets. People dance around the bonfires, saying “Yellow to you, red to me” to wish to stay away from illness and be healthy in the New Year. Later, young girls go from door to door to visit relatives and neighbors, asking for candies—a custom believed to bring good luck, which is called “seeking good luck”. They also hide in the dark or at the corners of the streets to listen to what the passersby are saying. They use the first sentence they hear to predict their luck for the New Year. ③On the eve of the festival, the whole family gathers to have a big reunion dinner. The table is always put with seven special things on it. For example, sugar means a sweet life, and gold coins mean wealth. ④A trip is the last activity of Nowruz.

Following a trial (试验), some patients refused to have theirs turned off. The trial, which began in 2018, involved five people between the ages of 22 and 60. They all had problems which were related to mental activities like thinking or reasoning after having serious brain injuries for 3 years or more. The injuries meant they had difficulty performing some tasks. For the trial, doctors implanted (植入) a tiny device into each patient’s brain during an operation. The device used “deep brain stimulation” (DBS), which rebuilds connections between neurons. Neurons are tiny cells, and there are billions of them in the brain. Whenever you do something, chemical and electrical signals move between your neurons. The tiny device applied electricity to parts of the brain. The trial was the first to focus DBS on a part of the brain that deals with consciousness (意识). It helped people be aware of what is around them and be able to respond (作出反应) to it. After the devices were put into the brains, the patients in the study had them turned on for 90 days, for 12 hours a day. This had a great influence on their lives. They could suddenly do things, like reading a book or playing video games, that used to be impossible because of their brain injuries. They also reported feeling less tired and could get through the day without napping. After 90 days, researchers wanted to turn off some of the patients’ devices. Two people were so happy with the difference the device made in their lives that they refused. Finally, one person agreed to have theirs turned off—and their brain performance got worse. Gina Arata, a patient who took part in the trial, said, “I can remember how much money is in my bank account. I wasn’t able to read, but after the implant I bought a book... and loved it and remembered it.” Nicholas Schiff, one of the authors of the study, called it a “pioneering moment.” Scientists hope the implant will change the lives of more people with serious long-term brain injuries. 1．Which of the following is TRUE about the patients in the trial? A．They have problems with mental activities. B．The patients include both children and adults. C．Only four patients are invited to be in the trial D．All of them get injured almost at the same time. 2．What does the word “It” refer to in Paragraph 2? A．The research team. B．The serious brain injury. C．The use of DBS device. D．The chemical signal between neurons. 3．Which is NOT mentioned as a result of using the device? A．Patients will feel less tired than before. B．Patients will have more need for napping. C．Patients may have the ability to read books. D．Patients’ memory for daily tasks will be better. 4．What is the right order of the following steps of the trial? a. Researchers tried to turn off some patients’ devices. b. Doctors implanted tiny devices into patients’ brains. c. Patients had their devices turned on for 12 hours daily. d. Two patients refused to let researchers turn off the device. e. Patients showed improved cognitive abilities like reading. A．a-b-c-e-d B．a-b-d-e-c C．b-c-e-a-d D．b-e-c-a-d 5．Which is the best title for this article?

To the north of Kunlun Mountains, there is a monster called Xiangliu, which has nine heads with human faces but the body of a snake. These magic creatures are from the ancient book of mythical (神话的) legends Shan Hai Jing. ②Shan Hai Jing, also known as The Classic of Mountains and Seas, is said to be at least 2,200 years old. It is about the culture and geography of China before the Qin dynasty. It has 31,000 words, more or less. The whole collection includes eighteen parts, talking about more than 350 mountains. It also tells many interesting stories and describes lots of mythical creatures. ③A famous story in the book is about Zhu Rong, the God of Fire. He is described as having a beast-like body and a human face, riding around the sky on two dragons. When he had a big fight with Gong Gong, the God of Water, Zhu Rong won. But after the fight, the human world came into complete darkness. Then he brought fire from heaven to the world and taught humans how to use it. ④Another famous story in the book is Feibao, which in another part is named Mo. It is described as a black-and-white monster that eats iron (铁). It also goes by the “Iron Eater”. The mysterious creature might be the giant panda. ⑤Although it’s not clear who wrote it, the Shan Hai Jing is an important ancient book in the pre-Qin period of China and is considered one of the treasures of Chinese culture. The stories in the book are now being spread from one generation to another in China. The book has inspired many people like Lu Xun and J.K. Rowling.

It grows slowly and the production is much less. Many crops even dry up and die completely. This makes farmers have bad harvests and puts local food safety in danger. To solve this serious problem, Chinese scientists have worked hard in both labs and test fields for years, and finally developed a new kind of rice successfully. ②On December 3, 2025, their research result was published in Cell, a famous international science magazine. This new rice can survive high temperatures—it can live through different levels of high temperatures. ③How can this special rice stay safe in high temperatures? When high heat reaches its cells, two special genes (基因)—DGK7 and MdPDE1—start working at once. First, the DGK7 gene helps the cell make a special chemical signal (信号). Next, this chemical signal travels inside the cell, reaches the MdPDE1 gene, and turns it on. Then the MdPDE1 gene helps the cell make a second chemical signal. Finally, this second signal makes many other helpful genes in the cell start working. They all work together to help the rice get used to hot conditions quickly. ④ ▲ To create this amazing rice, scientists used a special tool, CRISPR-Cas9, to improve these two genes. After many experiments, they carefully put the improved genes into rice plants. This new rice not only protects its pollen (花粉)—which is very important for rice production—from being hurt by heat, but also keeps growing healthily in high temperatures. It makes sure there is enough food as the world gets warmer. It also helps farmers get more harvests even in very hot years, bringing new hope to global food safety. However, there are still some practical problems to solve before it can help more farmers around the world. 1．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By asking a question. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving an example. D．By showing a problem. 2．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 3? A．The cell. B．The DGK7 gene. C．The chemical signal. D．The MdPDE1 gene. 3．Which sentence can be put in ▲ in Paragraph 4? A．Many countries are interested in this new rice. B．So how did scientists develop this kind of rice? C．Farmers also took part in the new rice research. D．The two genes are not helpful for common rice at all. 4．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The new rice may be of great help to farmers in the future. B．Scientists have solved the problems of food safety already. C．CRISPR-Cas9 is the only tool to improve rice genes at present. D．The research result was published in a Chinese magazine in 2025. 5．What will the writer most probably talk about next? A．How global warming started and how it hurts crops. B．Why common rice cannot grow well in hot weather. C．How this gene technology is different from other technologies. D．What practical problems need solving before farmers grow the new rice.
