The bottle was dirty and covered with shells. Inside was a piece of paper with handwriting that was hard to read. “Dear finder,” the letter began. “My name is Carlos. I am 9 years old and I live in Portugal. I am sending this bottle into the sea because I want to know if someone far away will read my words. My favorite thing is drawing ships. Do you like the ocean too? Please write back if you find this.” Mia was excited. She asked her mother for help and sent an email to the address Carlos had left. To her surprise, she received a reply two weeks later. It turned out that Carlos had thrown the bottle five years ago. Now he was 14 and had almost forgotten about it. The two started writing emails regularly. They shared pictures of their drawings — Mia drew sea animals, and Carlos drew ships. They learned about each other’s cultures and promised to meet one day. Mia’s teacher heard about the story and asked her to share it in class. “This shows that small acts can create big connections,” the teacher said. Mia learned that even in a huge world, a simple message can travel across the ocean and bring two strangers together. 31. How old was Carlos when Mia found his message? A. 9  B. 12  C. 14  D. 5 32.

C Fast fashion — cheap, mass-produced clothing that follows the latest trends — has changed the way we buy clothes. But what seems like a bargain may actually come with a high price. Every year, the fashion industry produces over 100 billion garments. The problem is that many of these clothes are worn only a few times before being thrown away. In the United States alone, about 11 million tons of textile waste go into landfills each year. Some of these clothes are made from materials that take hundreds of years to break down. The environmental impact is huge. Making clothes requires large amounts of water, energy, and chemicals. For example, producing one cotton shirt needs about 2,700 liters of water — that’s enough for one person to drink for two and a half years. Factories also release dyes and other pollutants into rivers, harming wildlife and local communities. Fast fashion also raises social concerns. To keep prices low, many brands use workers in developing countries who are paid very little and work in unsafe conditions. So what can we do? Experts suggest buying fewer but better-quality clothes, choosing second-hand items, and recycling old clothes instead of throwing them away. Some companies are also creating clothes from recycled materials or designing them to be easily repaired. “We don’t need to stop buying clothes completely,” says environmental scientist Dr. Emma Green. “But we need to think before we buy. Every piece of clothing has a story that starts long before it reaches the store.” 36. What is “fast fashion” according to the passage? A. Expensive and high-quality clothing.  B. Cheap clothing that follows latest trends. C. Clothes made from recycled materials.  D. Traditional clothes worn for many years. 37. How much water is needed to produce one cotton shirt? A. 100 liters  B. 1,000 liters  C. 2,700 liters  D. 11 million liters 38. What does the underlined word “landfills” in Paragraph 2 most likely mean? A. Places where waste is buried.  B. Factories that make clothes. C. Shops that sell cheap clothes.  D. Rivers polluted by chemicals. 39. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a solution? A. Buying second-hand clothes.  B. Recycling old clothes. C. Producing clothes from recycled materials.  D. Wearing clothes only once and throwing them away. 40. What is Dr. Emma Green’s attitude toward buying clothes? A. She thinks we should stop buying clothes completely. B. She suggests thinking carefully before each purchase. C. She believes fast fashion is good for the economy. D. She advises buying as many cheap clothes as possible. D For decades, students have been taught that good grades lead to success. Parents check report cards. Teachers praise high achievers. Universities select applicants based on scores. But is this focus on grades actually helping students learn? A growing number of educators argue that too much emphasis on grades can harm learning. When students are judged mainly by numbers, they tend to avoid challenges. Why take a difficult subject if it might lower your average? Why try a creative answer if you might lose points? This fear of failure turns learning into a game of “how to get an A” rather than “what can I discover.” Psychologist Carol Dweck’s research on “mindset” supports this idea. She found that students who believe intelligence can grow — a “growth mindset” — are more likely to embrace challenges and learn from mistakes. In contrast, students who think intelligence is fixed often give up when things get hard. Sadly, grade-driven systems can encourage a fixed mindset by rewarding only correct answers, not the learning process. However, grades are not useless. They provide a common measure for college admissions and job applications. The question is not whether to have grades, but how to balance them with other forms of feedback. Some schools are experimenting with written evaluations, self-assessment, and project-based learning where students show their understanding through real-world tasks. Finland, known for its excellent education system, has reduced standardized testing and given teachers more freedom to assess students in different ways. Students there spend less time taking exams and more time on deep learning. As a student, you might not change the grading system overnight. But you can change your own attitude. Try to see grades as information, not as judgments of your worth. When you get a low grade, ask: “What can I learn from this mistake?” rather than “How bad am I?” In the end, education should prepare you for life, not just for the next test. And life rewards those who keep growing, not just those who scored high once. 41. What problem does the writer see with focusing too much on grades? A. Students become afraid of taking risks in learning. B. Teachers stop giving helpful feedback. C. Parents care less about their children’s education. D. Universities stop using grades for admission. 42. What is a “growth mindset” according to the passage? A. The belief that grades are the most important thing. B. The belief that intelligence can improve with effort. C. The belief that some people are born smart and some are not. D. The belief that only perfect scores matter. 43. How does the writer support the argument against grade pressure? A. By listing statistics about failing students. B. By quoting research from a psychologist. C. By describing a personal experience. D. By giving a step-by-step scientific experiment. 44. What does Finland’s education system show? A. Testing is the only reliable way to assess students. B. Reducing exams can allow deeper learning. C. Students in Finland get the lowest grades in the world. D. Teachers there never give grades. 45. What does the writer advise students to do at the end of the passage? A. Stop caring about grades completely. B. Change the grading system in their school. C. Use low grades as a chance to learn and improve. D. Only take easy subjects to keep high grades. 第二部分 非选择题(共55分) 四、任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息,每空一词。 How to Deal with Exam Stress Exams are an important part of school life, but they can also cause a lot of stress. However, with the right strategies, you can manage exam stress effectively. First, plan your study time. Make a study schedule that breaks down your subjects into manageable parts. Instead of studying for five hours non-stop, try studying for 50 minutes, then take a 10-minute break. This method, known as the Pomodoro Technique, helps your brain stay focused and avoid tiredness. Second, take care of your body. The connection between physical health and mental performance is strong. You should aim for eight hours of sleep each night. Eat healthy meals, particularly foods rich in protein and vitamins. Regular exercise, even just a 20-minute walk, can do wonders for your stress level. Third, don’t go through it alone. Talk to your parents, teachers, or friends about your worry. You might be surprised to discover they have felt the same way. Sometimes, just saying your concerns out loud makes them feel smaller. Fourth, keep a positive attitude. Instead of thinking “I can’t do this,” tell yourself “I’ve prepared hard, and I’ll do my best.” Replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Research shows that students who practice positive thinking actually perform better on exams. Finally, remember the big picture. An exam result does not define who you are. It’s a single moment in your education journey, not the final destination. Life, as you will find, is made up of many such moments. Plan your time Make a study schedule; try the (46) _ Technique — study for 50 minutes and rest for 10. Take care of your body Get (47) _ hours of sleep every night; eat healthy food; take regular (48) _. Don’t (49) _ it alone Share your (50) _ with parents, teachers or friends; speaking out helps.

Last Friday, after our graduation photo was taken, we took out our pens and began writing on each other's uniforms. Some wrote their nicknames, some wrote inspiring quotes, and others simply wrote "We'll always be friends." When my best friend Li Ming wrote "Thanks for being my deskmate for three years," I couldn't hold back my tears. Looking at those colorful words and messy handwriting, I feel a warmth that no expensive gift can replace. This uniform is not just a piece of clothing any more. It is a book of our youth, a record of our laughter and tears. Whenever I see it in the future, I know I'll smile and remember these golden days with the most wonderful people.
