Possible version 1
Then he noticed some photos on the table, and his mum must have left them there. These were photos of his brother and friends playing football and swimming happily outdoors. There was also a picture of Davey laughing with them before. Staring at the bright smiling faces in the photos, Davey felt a strong sense of shame. He realized that he had missed so much happy time and hurt his brother’s heart. The joy in the virtual game was nothing compared with the warm company. He sat quietly for a long time, making up his mind to give up the game.
The next morning, Davey looked at the drawer where he locked the game with mum’s help. He showed no hesitation or regret, with firm determination in his eyes. He went to find his brother at once and apologized sincerely. Then he took the football and went out to play with his brother and friends happily. He felt the real joy and warmth again, which the game could never bring him. From then on, he kept away from addiction and lived a sunny and meaningful life.
Possible version 2
Then he noticed some photos on the table, and his mum must have left them there. His brother and friends were beaming in the pictures, kicking the ball and jumping into the pool. Davey’s heart sank. He had traded those bright, real smiles for a glowing screen. Just then, his mum entered. “How about locking the game away for a few days?” she suggested gently. Davey nodded immediately. Together, they gathered every piece of the game, locked them in a drawer, and his mum kept the key. “No game is going to steal my playtime again!” Davey declared.
The next morning, Davey looked at the drawer where he locked the game with mum’s help. The temptation whispered, but Davey turned away and found his brother. “Ready to explore the woods today?” he asked eagerly. His brother’s eyes widened with surprise and joy. Soon, they and their friends were running through the forest, the sun warming their faces and the wind brushing through their hair. They climbed trees, splashed in a stream, and laughed until their stomachs hurt. When evening came, Davey flopped onto his bed, exhausted but deeply content. He had made real memories—far better than any game could offer.
录音稿
【1原文】W: You’re leaving now? Won’t you stay for dinner?
M: No, I’ve got to go. We will have a birthday party for Mom tomorrow. I need to buy a watch for her before the shopping mall closes.
【2原文】M: Come on! Come on! Get the ball and shoot! Hey! Why did you turn off the TV, honey?
W: Rachel is having her exams tomorrow. She needs a sound sleep.
【3原文】W: I can’t decide whether to buy a new bicycle or try to find a second-hand one.
M: A new bicycle will cost you a lot of money, but it will save money in the long run, I think.
【4原文】M: The meal cost 90 dollars originally. You’ve offered a 10% discount, so it costs 81 dollars in total, right?
W: That’s right, sir.
M: Here is a hundred-dollar bill. Keep the change as your tip.
【5原文】W: Come and look! These places in the brochure are awesome! Which place shall we go for this vacation?
M: Oh, sorry, I’ve promised Mark that I am going hunting with him in Alaska.
W: John, you can’t be serious!
【6-7原文】M: Hello, I’m here to buy a soap bar for my daughter Alice. She wants to use it to wash her face. Do you think this one made of green tea is okay?
W: Sure, sir. Does your daughter have oily skin or normal skin?
M: Well, she always complains about her dry skin.
W: In that case, I think this goat’s milk soap bar is more suitable for your daughter. It’ll make her skin smoother.
M: Thanks. I’ll take this one.
【8-9原文】W: Let’s see what we have here in the fridge: oranges… no, ate too much before; bananas… no, don’t like the taste.
M: Look! We still have a pear.
W: The pear is good! But this one is too big. Why don’t we share it?
M: No, we Chinese do not share pears.
W: Oh? Why is that?
M: Well, in Chinese, “sharing a pear with someone” sounds like “leaving that person”, which is not a good sign to us.
W: I see. Guess I’ll have to eat it alone.
【10-12原文】W: Did your parents lie to you in order to talk you out of doing something when you were a kid?
M: Yeah. I used to grab and eat food with my dirty hands. In order to make me wash my hands, my parents said if I continued doing so, the bacteria I swallowed would finally gather into a monster and cut my belly open.
W: You must have been terrified.
M: You bet.
W: Well, at least your parents’ lie is understandable. My mom once told me that if I put a stamp upside down on the envelope and mailed it, I would be sent to the prison. It doesn’t make any sense.
M: It’s so funny. She probably just wanted to play a trick on you.
【13-16原文】M: You seem busy.
W: You can’t imagine what I have to finish by next Monday! This literature course is so difficult. I have to read two novels by next Monday and hand in a 3,000-word essay by next Friday.
M: So you don’t want to come to an exhibition with me this Saturday?
W: I’d love to, but I’m already behind with my writing class because I had a cold for a week and missed a few lessons. You seem to have loads of free time.
M: Well, we just don’t have as much academic work as you. My college life is colorful compared with yours. There are varieties of live performances as an art major.
W: Yes. I’m bored with the life of reading and writing every day.
M: Why don’t we stop talking? Just work now. If you have finished everything on Sunday, we could go to see that new play next Tuesday.
W: Okay. I’ll try. And I don’t want to miss the student ball next Wednesday.
【17-20原文】M: A burial place in Washington D. C. is using goats instead of poison to remove weeds. In recent years, many weeds have grown in the cemetery. Officials do not want to use poisons to kill the weeds. The cemetery is near the Anacostia River. Lauren Maloy is the program director in the cemetery. “Because it is close to the river, we are always looking for ways to make sure that things are sustainable — we are not using poisons that might hurt the environment.” She said. So cemetery officials have decided to use goats. The animals are less costly than chemicals and do not hurt the environment. The animals are owned by Mary Bowen. The cemetery pays her company $ 11,000 to have the goats remove unwanted plants from each spot of the cemetery. Mary Bowen says that is about half the cost of using poisons. An electronic fence keeps the goats from leaving the cemetery. She hopes that the goats will help more people understand that they can keep their property free of weeds without hurting the environment.

In a small workshop tucked away in the hills of The Gambia, 72-year-old Amadou Sillah runs his fingers along the strings of a half-finished kora (科拉琴). His hands move with the confidence of decades, but his eyes carry a quiet sadness. He is one of the last master craftsmen of this traditional West African instrument, and he fears his art may die with him.
For centuries, the kora has been the heart of West African storytelling. Its 21 strings (弦), stretched across a large gourd, produce a sound that blends the complexity of a harp with the rhythm of a lute. Learning to build one traditionally took seven years, passed from father to son. “The kora is not just wood and strings,” Sillah explains, wiping dust from his workbench. “It is memory. It is history.”
Yet globalization and shifting tastes have pushed the instrument to the edge. Many young Gambians now prefer imported electronic keyboards or western pop music. Worse still, the shortage of halep — the sacred tree whose wood produces the best resonance (共鸣) — has made authentic koras increasingly difficult to craft.
But a new initiative may offer a lifeline. Last year, a British ethnomusicologist launched the “Kora Digital Project”, working with Sillah to create 3D-printed models based on his designs. These replicas (复制品), made from sustainable materials, are being distributed to schools across West Africa. More importantly, the project is recording Sillah’s techniques and oral history in high-definition video, creating a digital archive for future generations.
“I never thought I’d see a kora made by a machine,” Sillah chuckles, examining a 3D-printed prototype. “But if it means the music lives on, then perhaps this old dog can learn new tricks.” He picks up the replica, plucks a string, and listens. The note rings true.
24. What can be inferred about the traditional kora-making craft?
A. It is easy to learn within months.
B. It is disappearing due to high costs.
C. It has been fully replaced by modern technology.
D. It faces challenges from both culture and materials.
25. What does the word “halep” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. A musical scale. B. A teaching method.
C. A type of tree. D. A cultural ceremony.
26. What does the “Kora Digital Project” mainly do?
A. It sells koras to Western musicians. B. It trains young people to build koras.
C. It records and preserves the craft digitally. D. It replaces traditional koras with plastic ones.
27. What is Sillah’s attitude toward the digital project?
A. Hesitant but open to change. B. Skeptical and unwilling.
C. Enthusiastic and fully supportive. D. Indifferent and unconcerned.
C
The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.
First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny ballet (芭蕾) dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”
On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible (隐形的) cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.
Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat, “Your inner ear thinks you’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying — that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days — truly terrible days for some — astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.
Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronaut healthy. NASA is worried about two things: recovery time once astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.
28. What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?
A. Deciding on a proper sleep position B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag
C. Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly D. Finding a right time to go to sleep.
29. The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when ______.
A. they circle around on their bikes B. they use microcomputers without a stop
C. they exercise in one place for a long time D. they watch a movie while pedaling
30. Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because ______.
A. their senses stop working B. they have to stand up straight
C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly D. their brains receive contrary messages
31. One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is ______.
A. how much exercise they do on the station B. how they can remain healthy for long in space
C. whether they can recover after returning home D. whether they are able to go back to the station
D
Every December, my house turns into the island of unwanted gifts. People are kind, but there are only so many candied nut tins, caramel popcorn towers, and sugar cookies one family can consume.
Let us not forget my wedding-regift incident. We received a very expensive electric teakettle. We don’t drink tea, so we returned it to the store and got $75. Later, the store manager called, furious, accusing us of trading them a piece of junk. Someone had bought the kettle (水壶) and discovered an obviously used cut-glass Easter basket inside. It turns out that person had regifted it to us. We paid the store back and were handed that ugly Easter basket.
This made me wonder: Is regifting a form of rudeness? To find out, let’s explore both sides of the regifting debate.
First of all, humans have been regifting since the dawn of time. Caveman A gives Caveman B a rock; Caveman B gives it to Caveman C. We call that anthropology (人类学). Modern life demands efficiency. Why let something sit in a cabinet? Why not give that brand-new item to someone who will actually use it? It’s economical. It’s environmentally friendly. It’s basically the circle of life.
And yet, regifting is a high-risk sport. It requires memory and strategy. Give the gift to the wrong person, and suddenly people are texting: “Didn’t I give this to you?” Regifting can go terribly wrong if you misjudge a person’s taste, so you should not regift within the same social ecosystem, while also carefully removing all the evidence (cards, receipts, etc.). Ultimately, the key is to match the gift to the person—so never give spa products to someone who hates lotions (乳液).
My official ruling? Regifting is not rude. Thoughtlessness is rude. Waste is rude. But giving something new, unused and suited to someone else’s preferences is generosity in its most practical, planet-friendly form. So go ahead — regift joyfully, wisely and guilt-free. After all, someone out there really needs those candied nuts.
32. What does the underlined word “furious” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Confused. B. Frustrated. C. Annoyed. D. Surprised.
33. Why does the author mention “Caveman” in the text?
A. To trace back the long history of regifting.
B. To provide examples of human efficiency.
C. To encourage the proper action of regifting.
D. To explain the nature of ancient anthropology.
34. Which of the following might be a successful regifting?
A. Sending a spa product to a colleague. B. Returning a costly gift to a local store.
C. Sharing fresh candies with a neighbor. D. Giving a suitable scarf to a new friend.
35. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Does regifting make sense? B. Is regifting actually rude?
C. What’s the power of regifting? D. Why is regifting high-risk?

Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 36 But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. 37 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.
38 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 39 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.
There are many common methods used to cook fish. 40 First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices (调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.
A. Do not buy it.
B. The easiest is to steam it.
C. This is how you can do it.
D. It just requires a little knowledge.
E. The fish will go bad within hours.
F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.
G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.

Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was 11 years old. She decided that she wanted to become a doctor.

After 77 (write) many letters asking for admission to medical schools, finally she 78 (accept) by a college in New York.

Davey’s new game
Davey was in middle school. He enjoyed kicking the ball around, swimming, riding his bike, and running about in the playground with his friends. But then his birthday arrived.
For his birthday, Davey had asked for a new electronic game, one that he’d heard some kids talking excitedly about. He was a well-behaved child, so his parents were glad to grant his wish. However, from the moment he received the game, everything changed.
Davey loved the brightness of the display and the loud, integrated sounds. As soon as he switched on the device, his eyes lit up, his fingers stuck to the controller, and his ears stopped hearing external sounds.
“Davey, wanna go out and play?” asked his little brother, holding a football.
“No thanks, maybe later…” Davey answered automatically, without tearing his eyes away from the flashing screen.
“But Davey, all our friends will be there and take some photos together,” his brother insisted. Davey didn’t even respond anymore. So his brother left by himself to join their friends.
Outside, the kids kicked the ball back and forth and had loads of fun. Davey, on the other hand, spent the whole afternoon curling up on the sofa with all his attention focused on the game. Only when the battery died and the controller stopped working did he wake up from his state of fascination. He then realised it was already dark outside.
The next morning, the game tempted (诱惑) Davey again. He resisted briefly, but soon gave in. When his brother invited him to swim, Davey just shook his head. So once again, his brother went on his own to join their friends. And how they enjoyed themselves! Davey, on the other hand, was still caught in the glow of the display screen, and only came out of its spell when the game was over. It was late at night again.
A new morning meant a new fight. He resisted for a bit longer, but again lost the battle. He played his game non-stop of course. When Davey put his game away that day, he felt burnt out.
