Gardens,however,face severe challenges:biodiversity is threatened,public biosecurity awareness is insufficient,and many households have no equal access to gardens.Fortunately, community and school gardens are developing well.Gardeners are adopting sustainable methods, while cross-sector cooperation and technology are promoting environmental horticulture () To fully realize gardens'value,four key priorities must be emphasized in the future.

Watching Julia Child from Julia Company,whom I thought of as a babysitter,I absorbed the idea that the kitchen was a creative lab.By six,mom trusted me with chopping boiled eggs and mixing up cookie dough.Over the years,The French Chef and Good Eats filled my young brain with practical cooking skills and mom helped me put them into action. Today when you turn on the TV,you will see that Food Network,once the flagship of cooking instructions,has filled programs with competitions like Chopped with celebrity judges, presenting restaurant dishes as luxury experiences that create a forbidding barrier to the kitchen- a far cry from early TV chefs'pursuit of accessibility.Product placements are built into the shows,turning cooking into a tool to chase ratings and make profits.Internet influencers have filled that gap with their creations,though not all pass our taste tests.With AI advancing,some 地 influencers aren't even humans.Their contents are just eye candy for shrinking attention spans. Yet hands-on practices that build life satisfaction,and any deeper link formed through them, 的 are typically passed from one person to another.What I learned from The French Chef led me to the kitchen,but it was my mom who welcomed me to stand beside her at the counter,guiding me to chop vegetables and internalize many of her recipes to the degree that I can make them taste exactly as she did.It keeps her present in my life nearly a decade after she passed away. The TV and Intemnet offer countless resources for mastering a skill,but my own experience is a vivid illustration that real skills take root only through personal instruction-when someone, be it real or on the TV,guides us patiently through small steps from an early age.Now,decades later,when friends ask why my sauces never break,I know it's those approachable,patient 数 lessons from childhood living on in my hands. 24.What can be inferred about the author's early life? 高 A.She learned to cook from a young age. B.She valued her babysitter Julia's help C.She was addicted to watching TV shows. D.She was burdened with heavy housework. 25.How does the author find the current shows on Food Network? A.Unprofessional.B.Commercialized. C.Instructive. D.Innovative. 26.What does"my sauces never break"in the last paragraph probably mean? A.I never mess up a dish. B.I never try new ingredients. C.I never give up cooking D.I never use mom's recipes. 27.What message does the author want to convey? A.Childhood memories shape career choices. B.Hands-on guidance helps pass down skills. C.Self-education is an essential part of learning. D.Social media facilitate knowledge acquisition. 英语试题第5页（共12页） C We generally believe that wisdom grows naturally with experience.As time passes,we make mistakes,learn lessons,and gradually improve our judgment.This common belief is comforting because it suggests that simply living longer will improve our understanding of the world. However,research from psychology and behavioral science now challenges this idea,indicating that experience alone is not always a reliable teacher. In many cases,repeated exposure does not sharpen judgment-rather,it dulls it.People who make the same decisions over and over often grow more confident without becoming more accurate.Consider an investor who continues to pour money into a declining stock because it once made him a fortune.Likewise,a doctor with years of experience in flu diagnosis might ignore an unusual symptom,only to realize later it was the first sign of a rare disease.Experience, it turns out,can solidify errors just as easily as it corrects them. In complex environments like financial markets,relationships or parenting,the consequences of decisions are rarely clear.Success is easily credited to skill when it could just have easily been luck,while failure is excused anyway.How can we trust such biased interpretations?This is why experience so often misleads us.The key is that experience leads to genuine leamning only under very specific conditions.As Soyer and Hogarth note in the book The Myth of Experience, "Experience does not automatically lead to learning.What matters is not how much experience someone has,but whether the environment provides clear,timely,and reliable feedback."When feedback is delayed or unclear,experience acts not as a teacher but as a cheater. Ancient philosophers were cautious of this long before modern psychology started to explore it.Socrates distrusted the authority of experience when unaccompanied by reflection,insisting that unexamined beliefs grow more dangerous with time.Wisdom,on this view,does not emerge from repetition,but from the capacity to question what experience appears to have taught us. 28.What does the author mainly state in paragraph 1? A.Age makes people smart. B.Experience is no guarantee of wisdom. C.Accumulation makes no sense. D.Mistakes and lessons improve judgment. 29.Which of the following examples can best fit in the second paragragh? A.A student avoids mistakes by reflecting on failures. B.A worker improves efficiency with repeated practice. C.A driver underestimates a curve after a hundred safe passes. D.A teacher gains experience by continuously changing methods. 30.Why is the book quoted in paragraph 3? A.To clarify a doubt. B.To question a belief. C.To define a concept. D.To support a claim. 英语试题第6页（共12页） 31.Which is the best title for the text? A.The Past Experience:A Teacher or a Cheater? B.To Grow Old or Grow Wise:That's a Choice! C.Repetitive Practice:The True Path to Wisdom D.Ancient Philosophers:Guides for Modern Psychology 0 Speaking of fungi,most tend to picture mushrooms typically growing in soil.Actually our planet hosts an estimated 3.8 million species of fungi,acting as primary decomposers and nutrient recyclers.Some underground fungi can form the "wood wide web"to facilitate communication between trees.Beyond these common types,there exists a distinctive group known as pyrophilous fungi,also called fire-loving fungi,that thrive abundantly in fire-stricken areas.They can form structures to tolerate high temperatures that would kill most living organisms,surviving in soil over 200F,then emerge when the forest has been ruined,growing into an ecosystem with far fewer competitors. Pyrophilous fungi have long fascinated researchers,for they can break down burnt remains, mainly charcoal ()and ash,and this power lies at the heart of forest recovery.Yet the exact mechanisms behind it remained a mystery.Glassman,an ecologist at the University of California cultivated fungi found in post-wildfire landscapes in the lab over five years.By exposing samples to charcoal,Glassman's team monitored and analyzed the fungal genes active in breaking down carbon compounds in charcoal.They found these genes have evolved in three main ways.The most exciting one is cross-species transfer where one kind of organism passes useful traits directly to another.The team's findings indicate that the charcoal-metabolizing (genes originally came from bacteria and were transferred to pyrophilous fungi during their evolutionary history. "Fungi have to eat but they can't make their own food,so the charcoal is a resource,and fungi have evolved to take advantage of it,"says Glassman.By degrading charcoal and releasing carbon,these pyrophilous fungi help restart nutrient cycles.Some species can even digest chemical pollutants.They also form dense fungal networks that hold the soil together,and upon dying,contribute a nutritious material to enrich the soil for future life. Glassman highlights the prospect of using these organisms to help restore polluted landscapes and make the environment more hospitable for returning plants.As wildfires intensify, these delicate organisms possibly become the most important players in post-fire forest recovery. 32.What advantage do the pyrophilous fungi have? A.Their structures to resist heat. B.Their competitive nature in the wild. C.Their ability to communicate with trees. D.Their vital roles in creating nutrients. 英语试题第7页（共12页） 33.Why was the research on the fungi conducted according to paragraph 2? A.To cultivate them in a lab. B.To compare them with bacteria. C.To classify their species. D.To uncover their genetic secret. 34.How does charcoal contribute to pyrophilous fungi's growth? A.By serving as a food supply. B.By holding soil together. C.By forming a dense network D.By releasing chemical pollutants. 35.What is Glassman's expectation about? A.Possible methods for new research. B.Medical value of fungi species. C.Potential application of the finding. D.Strategic plan for plant selection. 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。 Tips on Connecting With Your Family in the Car In our fast-paced world,quality time with family members is often the first thing we 烯 sacrifice.Due to last-minute work calls or running-late classes,Friday movie nights are canceled and Saturday outings are frequently postponed.36Both short school drives and long road trips can be transformed into valuable bonding experiences by being intentional. Remove digital distractions.Often,phones and tablets make every member stay in their own world.This creates a disconnected environment.37 Use this time in the car to chat, observe the scenery,or simply enjoy shared silence,fostering an atmosphere where everyone can get fully involved. .Start gentle and interesting conversations.38As a result,communication breaks down.Choosing light and positive topics like favorite things,funny stories or simple wishes is the key to keeping conversations flowing.Use open-ended questions like "Where would you choose if you could go anywhere?".This encourages everyone to share more about their inner worlds. .39 Car rides need not be just about getting from A to B.They're also a chance to share practical knowledge.When passing a gas station,talk to teens about budgeting.Upon spotting a road sign,explain to younger kids its meaning.Small exchanges spark curiosity and build practical wisdom for everyone. Create musical experiences.Road trips can be a painfully long stretch in the car.That's where the magic of music-a powerful emotional connector-comes in.Allow each member to add a few of their favorite songs and create a family playlist together.During the trip,sing along to familiar tunes,or have silly family karaoke sessions.40 Follow these tips and turn our next car trip into a lasting warm memory. 英语试题第8页（共12页） A.Make good use of road signs. B.Turn long transportation into mini education. C.But what if we fully share the moments inside the car? D.Why not encourage everyone to put away all screens? E.These shared melodies help track your family's highlights. F.Even Sunday trips are turned into family bonding occasions G.Exchanges often fade or turn tense with grades and criticism. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分50分） 圜 第-节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 的 Reading bedtime stories is a precious tradition to spark my child's imagination and deepen the parent-child connection.However,as my son Harvey reached seven,this routine gradually 啟 turned into a 41.

Best wishes, LiHua 第二节（满分25分） 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 as long as I could remember,my mom had been a helicopter parent,hovering ()over me all the time.Her days were consumed by monitoring my apps,my calls,and even the weather before I stepped outside.The world,in her eyes,was full of unpredictable dangers. This anxiety was partly due to an accident in my childhood that,I believed,still haunted her. When I was seven,she accompanied me to ride the bike in the park.Accidentally,I lost balance and injured my knee badly.The sight of my blood sent her into a panic;she didn't sleep for nights. From that day on,I had no chance to ride the bike any more.Even now at 17,bike,to me,was just a word in the dictionary and a faint sear on my knee. 英语试题第11页（共12页） However,my dad held a different opinion.He always said falls and small troubles were unavoidable gifts of growth,believing proper risks and independent experiences were necessary for me to become tougher and more responsible.He often persuaded my mom to loosen her control,but she could never put her worries aside. So,when today our school announced a three-day camping trip,my classmates erupted in excitement while I froze.I understood their joy-three days,no parents,just campfires and star- gazing.But inside,my mind was racing.How was I supposed to ask?The word "no"sat on my tongue like a stone. Back home,I went to my dad with the permission slip,a formal note that required parent's 努 signature,without which I was not allowed to join the camp.I hoped he'd sign it secretly to save me from mom's concern.But he shook his head softly,telling me this was my chance to show my mom I was ready to help her untie the tight worry in her heart.He said he trusted me and suggested I make a clear safety plan to ease her worry,adding "If you make it,I have a surprise for you."I stood there,listening to mom's familiar humming in the kitehen-cooking was the only thing that could move her focus away from me.My heart pounded. 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。 Holding the wrinkled permission slip tight,I pushed open the kitchen door. Back from the camp,I spotted no mom at the pick-up site,but a bike with my name card attached to it. 英语试题第12页（共12页）
