Our company is dedicated to the comfort of the passengers. We currently have three different types of cabins: upper class, premium and economy.

推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine a world where your children are not only entertained but also inspired to make a difference in the environment.

B
In a corner of my grandfather’s garage sat an object that my friends dismissed as a “relic.” It was a wooden tricycle, handcrafted by my grandfather decades ago. When I declared my intention to ride this classic machine across the rugged hills, the response was that it was ridiculous.“Modern roads will chew that wood to pieces,” they laughed.
Their doubt was not without reason. In an era dominated by carbon-fiber frames and digital precision, a heavy wooden structure seemed like an impractical ghost from the past. However, I wasn’t chasing a personal best; I was pursuing a dialogue with my heritage.
The initial stage of the journey was punishing. The rigid seat and the groaning (吱嘎作响) wheels seemed to protest every mile. Yet, as the rhythm of the ride took over, my feeling shifted. I began to appreciate the fine craftsmanship — the handles polished by my father’s hands and the joints that had remained steady through decades of neglect. These weren’t just parts; they were evidence of a time when objects were built to endure, not to be thrown away.
The tricycle became a conversation starter. A farmer, noticing the unusual vehicle, stopped not to criticize, but to touch the frame with genuine admiration. He recognized something that my peers had missed: the beauty of permanence. “Your grandfather knew his wood,” he said softly, a remark that made me realize I was carrying more than just my own weight.
By the end of the third day, both the bike and my spirit had remained safe. Back in the garage, I cleaned the dust off the wooden frame, noticing how the new marks blended perfectly with the old ones — a fresh layer of history. I ran my hand over the oak handles, still feeling the warmth of the touch passed down to me. As I turned off the light and closed the door, the old tricycle sat quietly in the shadows, no longer a “relic” but a living witness. It wasn’t just wood and joints; it was a soul that had survived the rush of time.
24. Why did the author’s friends laugh at his plan?
A. They doubted the safety of the hilly roads.
B. They preferred carbon-fiber bikes for themselves.
C. They thought the author lacked riding experience.
D. They believed the tricycle was functionally outdated.
25. What changed the author’s feeling during the ride?
A. The encouragement from the local farmers.
B. The discovery of the bike’s hidden functions.
C. The appreciation of the bike’s enduring quality.
D. The improvement of the weather conditions.
26. What does paragraph 4 focus on?
A. A new difficulty on the trip.
B. A professional skill of the farmer.
C. A shared appreciation of the tricycle.
D. A different opinion from the author’s.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Tough Trip Across the Rugged Hills
B. A Soulful Ride into the Family Past
C. A Silent Dialogue with Modern Times
D. A New Mark on the Old Wood
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者骑祖父手工制作的木制三轮车穿越崎岖山丘,从中感受家族传承与历史的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“When I declared my intention to ride this classic machine across the rugged hills, the response was that it was ridiculous.“Modern roads will chew that wood to pieces,” they laughed.(当我宣布我打算骑着这辆经典的三轮车穿越崎岖的山丘时,得到的回应是这太荒谬了。“现代道路会把木头嚼成碎片的,”他们笑着说)”可知,作者的朋友嘲笑他的计划是因为他们认为这辆三轮车在功能上已经过时了。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Yet, as the rhythm of the ride took over, my feeling shifted. I began to appreciate the fine craftsmanship — the handles polished by my father’s hands and the joints that had remained steady through decades of neglect. These weren’t just parts; they were evidence of a time when objects were built to endure, not to be thrown away.(然而,随着骑行节奏的掌控,我的感觉发生了变化。我开始欣赏精湛的工艺——父亲亲手打磨的手柄,以及几十年无人问津却依然稳固的关节。这些不仅仅是部件,它们证明了那个时代物品是为了持久而建造的,而不是为了被丢弃)”可知,在骑行过程中,作者开始欣赏这辆三轮车的持久品质,这改变了他的感觉。故选C。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中“The tricycle became a conversation starter. A farmer, noticing the unusual vehicle, stopped not to criticize, but to touch the frame with genuine admiration. He recognized something that my peers had missed: the beauty of permanence.(三轮车成了谈话的引子。一位农民注意到这辆不同寻常的车,他停下来不是为了批评,而是带着真正的钦佩之情触摸车架。他认识到了我的同龄人所忽视的东西:永恒之美)”可知,第四段主要讲述了作者和农民对这辆三轮车的共同欣赏。故选C。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文内容,特别是最后一段中“As I turned off the light and closed the door, the old tricycle sat quietly in the shadows, no longer a ‘relic’ but a living witness. It wasn’t just wood and joints; it was a soul that had survived the rush of time.(当我关掉灯,关上门时,那辆旧三轮车静静地坐在阴影里,不再是一件“遗物”,而是一个活生生的见证。它不仅仅是木头和关节,它是一个在时间洪流中幸存下来的灵魂)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者骑祖父手工制作的木制三轮车穿越崎岖山丘,从中感受家族传承与历史的故事,因此B选项“一次充满情感的家族历史之旅”最符合文章主旨。故选B。
C
The human brain is sensitive to shortage. The lack of something we consider important can powerfully shape our thinking and behaviour.
Take money for example: if you lack money, you are likely to make short-sighted decisions that make you better now but worse later. One possible explanation for this behaviour is that shortage causes pressure to our mind, which makes it harder for us to focus and plan.
In recent work, however, we found that people react to water shortage very differently from they do to other shortages. There are two geographically close cities in Iran — Shiraz and Yazd — that have similar economies and the same language but sharply different amounts of water. Shiraz receives enough rainfall to produce its world-famous wine. Nearby Yazd is very dry. We gave psychological tests to 331 people in Shiraz and Yazd to measure how much they value the future. Sure enough, people in Yazd thought that planning for the future was more important than those in Shiraz did, and people in Shiraz liked the idea of living in the moment more than those in Yazd did.
In fact, humans may have evolved to be sensitive to water access because it’s so important to us. Humans managed without money for many thousands of years. Our species can survive without food for weeks but without water for just days. It has been proven that there exists an evolutionary connection related to water within our sense of smell. Humans are better at feeling the smell of fresh rainfall than sharks are at feeling blood. The fact that water is important for human life makes it more reasonable that evolution would lead to our having psychological reactions specific to the threat of water shortage.
That sensitivity might be crucial going forward. Climate change is making droughts more common. Our work suggests that as many places dry up, global warming could reshape how people think, pushing entire communities towards more careful, future-focused behaviour. That may offer a slim hope amid the threat of climate change.
28. What can money shortage bring about according to Paragraph 2?
A. Social failure. B. Emotional needs. C. Mental stress. D. Positive attitudes.
29. How are people in Yazd different from those in Shiraz?
A. They are economically stronger. B. They are good at communicating.
C. They enjoy geographical advantages. D. They think more about the long term.
30. What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 4?

【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是人类大脑对资源短缺的敏感性,尤其是对比了人们对金钱短缺与水资源短缺的不同反应。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Take money for example: if you lack money, you are likely to make short-sighted decisions that make you better now but worse later. One possible explanation for this behaviour is that shortage causes pressure to our mind, which makes it harder for us to focus and plan.(以钱为例:如果你缺钱,你可能会做出短视的决定,让你现在变得更好,但以后会变得更糟。对于这种行为,一种可能的解释是,短缺会给我们的思维带来压力,使我们更难集中注意力、规划未来。)”可知,资金短缺会带来精神压力。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Sure enough, people in Yazd thought that planning for the future was more important than those in Shiraz did, and people in Shiraz liked the idea of living in the moment more than those in Yazd did.(果然,Yazd的人比Shiraz的人更加认为为未来做规划更重要,而Shiraz的人比Yazd的人更喜欢活在当下的想法。)”可知,Yazd的人与Shiraz的人更注重长远考虑。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“In fact, humans may have evolved to be sensitive to water access because it’s so important to us. Humans managed without money for many thousands of years. Our species can survive without food for weeks but without water for just days. It has been proven that there exists an evolutionary connection related to water within our sense of smell. Humans are better at feeling the smell of fresh rainfall than sharks are at feeling blood. The fact that water is important for human life makes it more reasonable that evolution would lead to our having psychological reactions specific to the threat of water shortage.(事实上,人类可能已经进化到对水资源获取十分敏感,因为水对我们至关重要。人类在没有金钱的情况下生活了数千年。我们人类不进食可以存活数周,但不喝水却只能存活数天。事实证明,我们的嗅觉中存在着与水相关的进化联系。人类对新鲜雨水的气味比鲨鱼对血腥味的感知更为敏锐。水对人类生命至关重要,因此,进化使我们针对水资源短缺的威胁产生特定的心理反应,这是合乎情理的。)”可知,作者在第四段想要强调的是水在我们的思维中占有重要地位。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Our work suggests that as many places dry up, global warming could reshape how people think, pushing entire communities towards more careful, future-focused behaviour.(我们的研究表明,随着许多地方逐渐干涸,全球变暖可能会重塑人们的思维方式,推动整个社区采取更加谨慎、注重未来的行为。)”可知,在最后一段作者暗示了水资源短缺促使我们为气候变化做准备。故选B。
D
Before the craze for Labubus, few had heard of Pop Mart, the Chinese toymaker behind the dolls market. Seemingly overnight, Pop Mart has become the world’s most valuable listed toymaker; its market capitalisation, at $38bn, is more than three times that of the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty. Its stores have popped up in nearly 40 countries. How much bigger can the company get?
New dolls are sold in “blind boxes”; buyers do not know which character they will get until they open up the package. Collectors seeking out rare versions have been willing to pay eye-watering prices to get their hands on them. The second-hand price of Chestnut Cocoa, a scarce creature with fluffy brown fur, hit 1,500 yuan.
For months Pop Mart stores have not had enough dolls to go around. Shoppers have been asked to scan QR codes and join a digital queue that could last weeks. While this has added to the hype around the toys, it was primarily the result of manufacturing shortfalls that constrained the firm’s ability to cash in on the surging popularity of Labubus.
In response, the company has been boosting production. By the end of the year it will have grown its manufacturing capacity ten-fold compared with January, reckons HSBC, a bank. Increased supply is already hitting the secondary market, pushing down prices for older generations of Labubus. Yet new releases are said to sell out almost instantly, suggesting that demand remains feverish.
Pop Mart also has its sights set on becoming more than just a toymaker. Pop Land, a theme park it opened in Beijing in 2023, lets visitors interact with characters including Labubus. It may open more. The company also has plans to launch a Labubu animated series, and establish its own film studio.
32. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By giving examples.
B. By stating facts.
C. By illustrating a statement.
D. By explaining a phenomenon.
33. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Publicity. B. Diversity.
C. Engagement. D. Development.
34. What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A. The feverish demand for Labubus didn’t quiet down with new supply flooding in.
B. The increased production has rocketed the price of Labubus in the secondary market.
C. The boosting manufacturing capacity is yet too late to take back the company’s share.
D. The older generations of Labubus became shelved after the new releases hit the market.
35. Which of the following can be learned from Pop Mart’s business story?
A. The freedom to choose preferred items fuels a booming brand.
B. Insufficient production capacity accelerates a company’s expansion.
C. The key to a toymaker’s success lies in achieving international popularity.
D. The market appeal of a pre-owned item is driven by its availability to collectors.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了泡泡玛特凭借盲盒娃娃Labubu迅速崛起,拓展业务版图的情况。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Seemingly overnight, Pop Mart has become the world’s most valuable listed toymaker; its market capitalisation, at $38bn, is more than three times that of the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty. Its stores have popped up in nearly 40 countries.(似乎一夜之间,泡泡玛特就成为了全球市值最高的上市玩具制造商;其市值达到380亿美元,是Hello Kitty背后的日本公司市值的三倍多。它的商店在近40个国家如雨后春笋般涌现。)”可知,作者通过陈述事实来引入话题。故选B。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Shoppers have been asked to scan QR codes and join a digital queue that could last weeks. While this has added to the hype around the toys, it was primarily the result of manufacturing shortfalls that constrained the firm’s ability to cash in on the surging popularity of Labubus.(顾客被要求扫码排队,等待时间可能长达数周。尽管这加剧了玩具的hype,但这主要是由于生产短缺,限制了该公司利用Labubu日益流行而获利的能力。)”可知,生产短缺限制了公司利用Labubu日益流行而获利的能力,但是这加剧了玩具的宣传热度,hype意为“宣传”,与publicity意思相近。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Increased supply is already hitting the secondary market, pushing down prices for older generations of Labubus. Yet new releases are said to sell out almost instantly, suggesting that demand remains feverish.(供应量的增加已经冲击了二级市场,压低了老一代Labubu的价格。然而,据说新发行的产品几乎瞬间售罄,这表明需求仍然旺盛。)”可知,新供应涌入并没有使对Labubu的旺盛需求平静下来。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Collectors seeking out rare versions have been willing to pay eye-watering prices to get their hands on them. The second-hand price of Chestnut Cocoa, a scarce creature with fluffy brown fur, hit 1,500 yuan.(收藏家们为了得到稀有版本,不惜付出高昂的代价。Chestnut Cocoa是一种长着蓬松棕色皮毛的稀有生物,其二手价格达到了1500元。)”可知,二手物品的市场吸引力是由收藏家能否获得它来推动的。故选D。
第二节 七选五 (每题2.5分,共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。
Want to create a beautiful backyard landscape that will attract birds, butterflies and wildlife? It’s really not that hard. Here are four steps that will help you create your own backyard.
Develop a landscaping plan
____36____. Where is the area you will most likely be sitting and viewing the backyard? What is the focal point of the landscape? If you are adding a water feature, you will probably want to make that the focus and develop your plan with that in mind.
Break down the plan into sections
Break your yard down into manageable sections and begin working on section one. If you are adding a pond and stream or waterfall, this will be your starting point. Remember though, you are most likely to make changes to each section throughout the years. ____37____. The important thing is to get started.
____38____
Remove the grass as much as possible, then plow (犁) the area completely. Mix in fertilizers, maybe some sand, and whatever your local flower shop might recommend to make the soil rich. The richer the soil, the better your plants will grow, and the less weeding and upkeep you will have.
Plant according to height
Taller plants need to go at the back of each section. Low plants and flowers should be at the front. ____39____. This seems rather basic but surprisingly, it’s often ignored.
Know the best time to plant your plants
Read the instructions that come with the plants. Trees are usually best planted in the fall so they can develop a solid root system before the heat and rain arrive in the summer months. Most bulbs (鳞茎) are also best planted in the fall and grow in the spring. ____40____.
A. Prepare the area fully
B. This can lead to disease
C. Look over your backyard
D. Some flowers grow best in shady areas
E. So don’t get too concerned about the final output
F. There are also many plants needing to be planted after the chance of frost is over
G. It would be a shame to have beautiful flowers in your garden that you can’t see

【36题详解】
根据上文“Develop a landscaping plan (制定景观规划)”以及下文“Where is the area you will most likely be sitting and viewing the backyard? What is the focal point of the landscape? (你最可能坐在哪里观赏后院?景观的核心看点是什么?)”可知,空格处需表达先查看、了解自家后院的含义。C选项“Look over your backyard (仔细查看你的后院)”精准承接小标题,强调规划前要先观察场地,为后文提出具体思考问题做铺垫,符合语境。故选C项。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Remember though, you are most likely to make changes to each section throughout the years.(不过要记住,多年里你很可能会对每个区域不断修改)”以及下文“The important thing is to get started.(重要的是开始动手)”可知,空格处需衔接“会不断改动”与“先开始就好”的逻辑。E选项“So don’t get too concerned about the final output (所以不必过于纠结最终的完美效果)”承接上文,说明不用追求一步到位,与后文“重要的是开始”形成呼应,符合语境。故选E项。
【38题详解】
根据下文“Remove the grass as much as possible, then plow (犁) the area completely. Mix in fertilizers, maybe some sand, and whatever your local flower shop might recommend to make the soil rich. The richer the soil, the better your plants will grow, and the less weeding and upkeep you will have.(尽可能清除草,然后把这片地彻底犁一遍。 掺入肥料,或许再加一些沙子,以及当地花店推荐的其他材料,让土壤变得肥沃。 土壤越肥沃,植物就长得越好,你需要除草和养护的次数也越少)”可知,本段核心是为种植做好场地准备。A选项“Prepare the area fully (充分准备种植区域)”能够准确概括本段内容,适合作为小标题,统领后文所有整地步骤,符合语境。故选A项。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Taller plants need to go at the back of each section. Low plants and flowers should be at the front (高植株要种在每个区域的后方,矮花草要种在前方)”可知,空格处需解释这样按高度种植的原因。G选项“It would be a shame to have beautiful flowers in your garden that you can’t see (如果花园里有漂亮的花你却看不到,那就太可惜了)”点明按高低种植是为了方便观赏,逻辑通顺,与前文种植原则高度契合,符合语境。故选G 项。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Know the best time to plant your plants(了解植物的最佳种植时间)”,以及“Read the instructions that come with the plants. Trees are usually best planted in the fall so they can develop a solid root system before the heat and rain arrive in the summer months. Most bulbs (鳞茎) are also best planted in the fall and grow in the spring.(仔细阅读植物附带的说明。 树木通常最好在秋天种植,这样它们就能在夏季的炎热和雨水到来之前,长出稳固的根系。 大多数鳞茎植物也最好在秋天种植,春天生长)”可知,空格处需继续补充其他植物的适宜种植时间。F选项“There are also many plants needing to be planted after the chance of frost is over (还有许多植物需要在霜冻风险结束后种植)”从时间上继续补充说明,与本段“掌握种植时机”的主题一致,内容连贯,符合语境。故选F项。

【56题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:在杭州新龙门客栈一个专门设计的工作室剧场里,一场传统的绍剧表演被搬上了舞台。分析句子结构可知,bring做本句谓语,根据后句中的shows客户自,用一般现在时,和主语a traditional Shaoxing Opera performance之间是被动关系,用被动语态,主语是第三人称单数。故填is brought。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意:改编自1992年的同名电影,歌剧表演展示了惊人的艺术表现,通过将传统的中国戏剧与现代戏剧模式和戏剧思想相结合,成功地吸引了年轻一代的兴趣。空前是形容词,所以空处应填名词作宾语,generation意为“代”,为可数名词,根据句意,此处用复数形式。故填generations。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:与传统舞台相比,剧场被设计成一个客栈,观众成为客人。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词is designed,所以compare用非谓语形式,和逻辑主语the theater之间是被动关系,用过去分词表被动,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填Compared。

【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:离开剧院后,这些观众会有一种满足感,这种满足感驱使他们心甘情愿地在网上分享演出的短视频,从而促进了演出的流行。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词feel,所以promote用非谓语形式,和逻辑主语a sense of satisfaction之间是主动关系,用现在分词形式。故填promoting。
【62题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:随着该剧在过去几周的走红,在剧中扮演重要配角贾婷的陈丽君也成为了社交媒体上的红人。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是Chen Lijun,在从句中作主语,用who引导。故填who。
【63题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:随着该剧在过去几周的走红,在剧中扮演重要配角贾婷的陈丽君也成为了社交媒体上的红人。分析句子结构可知,become作本句谓语,根据时间状语in the past weeks,用现在完成时,主语是Chen Lijun为第三人称单数。故填has become。
【64题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:她说,这个节目代表了歌剧世界中最具挑战性的技能之一。空后是名词,空处应填形容词作定语,修饰skills为物,用-ing形式,根据前文的one of可知,用最高级形式。故填most challenging。

67. 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。
One day in 2009, Jane and her husband planned to drive from Boise to Jane’s hometown of Salt Lake City to visit her parents. But soon after they started their journey, their car broke down halfway. They didn’t have enough money to fix it. What’s worse, at the repair shop, they were told that it would take several days to repair it because there were no spare parts available. Just as they were wondering what to do, a woman named Alisa, who was at the repair shop, overheard their situation. She decided to help them.
“She offered to take us to Salt Lake City. The only thing she needed to do was go home to take care of her sick brother before leaving. She had to give her brother medicine at night,” Jane recalled, looking grateful.
Later that day, Alisa took the couple to her home. She bought them dinner and let them spend the night at her house. Jane and her husband thanked her for what she had done for them. They also watched Alisa take care of her brother. It was a loving and touching scene. Their admiration for Alisa grew. She told them that she felt like she did just the right thing that anyone would do in that situation.
The next day, early in the morning, Alisa drove them to Salt Lake City. But before they could fully thank her, she said goodbye and drove away. It was a little sad and regretful. After that, Jane and Alisa lost touch. But nearly 15 years later, Jane still thought about everything Alisa had done for them. She wanted to contact Alisa and express how much Alisa’s help had made a difference in her life. However, she couldn’t remember Alisa’s full name and the chance to find her seemed very small.

【答案】
Suddenly, Jane had an idea. She could post the story on social media. After all, information on it could spread quickly. Without hesitation, she wrote her story, describing how Alisa helped her and her husband by letting them stay at her house and driving them home the next day. She also mentioned Alisa’s sick brother, who Alisa cared for with love and energy. At the end of the story, she sincerely hoped Alisa could recognize her and contact her. After making sure everything was okay, she clicked and posted it.
To Jane’s surprise, Alisa saw the story online and picked up her phone. Years after they first met, they reconnected through a video call. Within the first few minutes of chatting, and with tears in her eyes, Jane thanked Alisa again. She said that over the past years, inspired by Alisa’s kindness, she had always tried to be like Alisa and help others. Alisa was surprised and moved to tears. They decided to set a date for a happy reunion.

In a corner of my grandfather’s garage sat an object that my friends dismissed as a “relic.” It was a wooden tricycle, handcrafted by my grandfather decades ago. When I declared my intention to ride this classic machine across the rugged hills, the response was that it was ridiculous.“Modern roads will chew that wood to pieces,” they laughed.
Their doubt was not without reason. In an era dominated by carbon-fiber frames and digital precision, a heavy wooden structure seemed like an impractical ghost from the past. However, I wasn’t chasing a personal best; I was pursuing a dialogue with my heritage.
The initial stage of the journey was punishing. The rigid seat and the groaning (吱嘎作响) wheels seemed to protest every mile. Yet, as the rhythm of the ride took over, my feeling shifted. I began to appreciate the fine craftsmanship — the handles polished by my father’s hands and the joints that had remained steady through decades of neglect. These weren’t just parts; they were evidence of a time when objects were built to endure, not to be thrown away.
The tricycle became a conversation starter. A farmer, noticing the unusual vehicle, stopped not to criticize, but to touch the frame with genuine admiration. He recognized something that my peers had missed: the beauty of permanence. “Your grandfather knew his wood,” he said softly, a remark that made me realize I was carrying more than just my own weight.
By the end of the third day, both the bike and my spirit had remained safe. Back in the garage, I cleaned the dust off the wooden frame, noticing how the new marks blended perfectly with the old ones — a fresh layer of history. I ran my hand over the oak handles, still feeling the warmth of the touch passed down to me. As I turned off the light and closed the door, the old tricycle sat quietly in the shadows, no longer a “relic” but a living witness. It wasn’t just wood and joints; it was a soul that had survived the rush of time.
24. Why did the author’s friends laugh at his plan?
A. They doubted the safety of the hilly roads.
B. They preferred carbon-fiber bikes for themselves.
C. They thought the author lacked riding experience.
D. They believed the tricycle was functionally outdated.
25. What changed the author’s feeling during the ride?
A. The encouragement from the local farmers.
B. The discovery of the bike’s hidden functions.
C. The appreciation of the bike’s enduring quality.
D. The improvement of the weather conditions.
26. What does paragraph 4 focus on?
A. A new difficulty on the trip.
B. A professional skill of the farmer.
C. A shared appreciation of the tricycle.
D. A different opinion from the author’s.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Tough Trip Across the Rugged Hills
B. A Soulful Ride into the Family Past
C. A Silent Dialogue with Modern Times
D. A New Mark on the Old Wood
C
The human brain is sensitive to shortage. The lack of something we consider important can powerfully shape our thinking and behaviour.
Take money for example: if you lack money, you are likely to make short-sighted decisions that make you better now but worse later. One possible explanation for this behaviour is that shortage causes pressure to our mind, which makes it harder for us to focus and plan.
In recent work, however, we found that people react to water shortage very differently from they do to other shortages. There are two geographically close cities in Iran — Shiraz and Yazd — that have similar economies and the same language but sharply different amounts of water. Shiraz receives enough rainfall to produce its world-famous wine. Nearby Yazd is very dry. We gave psychological tests to 331 people in Shiraz and Yazd to measure how much they value the future. Sure enough, people in Yazd thought that planning for the future was more important than those in Shiraz did, and people in Shiraz liked the idea of living in the moment more than those in Yazd did.
In fact, humans may have evolved to be sensitive to water access because it’s so important to us. Humans managed without money for many thousands of years. Our species can survive without food for weeks but without water for just days. It has been proven that there exists an evolutionary connection related to water within our sense of smell. Humans are better at feeling the smell of fresh rainfall than sharks are at feeling blood. The fact that water is important for human life makes it more reasonable that evolution would lead to our having psychological reactions specific to the threat of water shortage.
That sensitivity might be crucial going forward. Climate change is making droughts more common. Our work suggests that as many places dry up, global warming could reshape how people think, pushing entire communities towards more careful, future-focused behaviour. That may offer a slim hope amid the threat of climate change.
28. What can money shortage bring about according to Paragraph 2?
A. Social failure. B. Emotional needs. C. Mental stress. D. Positive attitudes.
29. How are people in Yazd different from those in Shiraz?
A. They are economically stronger. B. They are good at communicating.
C. They enjoy geographical advantages. D. They think more about the long term.
30. What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 4?
A. Water has a meaningful place in our thinking.
B. The world is under the threat of water shortage.
C. Human evolution depends on the environment.
D. Humans enjoy the most powerful sense of smell.
31. What is implied in the last paragraph?
A. Fighting climate change remains much to be done.
B. Water shortage pushes us to prepare for climate change.
C. Sensitivity plays a decisive role in solving water shortage.
D. The study of water shortage is faced with great challenges.
D
Before the craze for Labubus, few had heard of Pop Mart, the Chinese toymaker behind the dolls market. Seemingly overnight, Pop Mart has become the world’s most valuable listed toymaker; its market capitalisation, at $38bn, is more than three times that of the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty. Its stores have popped up in nearly 40 countries. How much bigger can the company get?
New dolls are sold in “blind boxes”; buyers do not know which character they will get until they open up the package. Collectors seeking out rare versions have been willing to pay eye-watering prices to get their hands on them. The second-hand price of Chestnut Cocoa, a scarce creature with fluffy brown fur, hit 1,500 yuan.
For months Pop Mart stores have not had enough dolls to go around. Shoppers have been asked to scan QR codes and join a digital queue that could last weeks. While this has added to the hype around the toys, it was primarily the result of manufacturing shortfalls that constrained the firm’s ability to cash in on the surging popularity of Labubus.
In response, the company has been boosting production. By the end of the year it will have grown its manufacturing capacity ten-fold compared with January, reckons HSBC, a bank. Increased supply is already hitting the secondary market, pushing down prices for older generations of Labubus. Yet new releases are said to sell out almost instantly, suggesting that demand remains feverish.
Pop Mart also has its sights set on becoming more than just a toymaker. Pop Land, a theme park it opened in Beijing in 2023, lets visitors interact with characters including Labubus. It may open more. The company also has plans to launch a Labubu animated series, and establish its own film studio.
32. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By giving examples.
B. By stating facts.
C. By illustrating a statement.
D. By explaining a phenomenon.
33. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Publicity. B. Diversity.
C. Engagement. D. Development.
34. What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A. The feverish demand for Labubus didn’t quiet down with new supply flooding in.
B. The increased production has rocketed the price of Labubus in the secondary market.
C. The boosting manufacturing capacity is yet too late to take back the company’s share.
D. The older generations of Labubus became shelved after the new releases hit the market.
35. Which of the following can be learned from Pop Mart’s business story?
A. The freedom to choose preferred items fuels a booming brand.
B. Insufficient production capacity accelerates a company’s expansion.
C. The key to a toymaker’s success lies in achieving international popularity.
D. The market appeal of a pre-owned item is driven by its availability to collectors.

One day in 2009, Jane and her husband planned to drive from Boise to Jane’s hometown of Salt Lake City to visit her parents. But soon after they started their journey, their car broke down halfway. They didn’t have enough money to fix it. What’s worse, at the repair shop, they were told that it would take several days to repair it because there were no spare parts available. Just as they were wondering what to do, a woman named Alisa, who was at the repair shop, overheard their situation. She decided to help them.
“She offered to take us to Salt Lake City. The only thing she needed to do was go home to take care of her sick brother before leaving. She had to give her brother medicine at night,” Jane recalled, looking grateful.
Later that day, Alisa took the couple to her home. She bought them dinner and let them spend the night at her house. Jane and her husband thanked her for what she had done for them. They also watched Alisa take care of her brother. It was a loving and touching scene. Their admiration for Alisa grew. She told them that she felt like she did just the right thing that anyone would do in that situation.
The next day, early in the morning, Alisa drove them to Salt Lake City. But before they could fully thank her, she said goodbye and drove away. It was a little sad and regretful. After that, Jane and Alisa lost touch. But nearly 15 years later, Jane still thought about everything Alisa had done for them. She wanted to contact Alisa and express how much Alisa’s help had made a difference in her life. However, she couldn’t remember Alisa’s full name and the chance to find her seemed very small.
