C (During World War II, ten-year-old Annemarie was helping her Jewish friend hide from German soldiers.Tonight she must walk through dark woods with a secret basket...) That night, after her friend Ellen fell asleep, Annemarie tiptoed to the window and found the street empty. She lifted the heavy basket her mother had prepared, and quietly walked out and into the dark. The path through the woods was rough to cross. Roots caught at her shoes, and branches scratched her arms. Suddenly, she heard a twig snap. Her heart was beating fast. She remembered her uncle’s words: “When you are in fear, think of Little Red Riding-Hood in the forest, and hold your basket tightly.” A soldier? An animal? The basket grew heavier with each step. She thought of Ellen at the farmhouse, her sister Kirsti who thought it a game, her father in the city, and her mother who had hurt her ankle just hours before. Suddenly, a soldier stepped onto the path and pointed the flashlight directly into her eyes. “What are you doing here, little girl?” he asked with a thick German accent (口音). Annemarie made her voice light and careless, like Kirsti’s. “I’m taking lunch to my uncle,” she said. “He’s a fisherman. The basket is very heavy.” The soldier shone his light into the basket. Annemarie saw what he saw: bread, cheese, an apple—and hidden beneath (在...下面) them, the handkerchief that her mother had packed (塞进) with a strange, strong smell. She did not know what it was for, but she knew it was important. The soldier wrinkled his nose at the smell. He stepped back and waved her on. “Go then,” he said. “And be quick about it.” Annemarie walked past him, her legs shaking but her face still calm. She knew that inside the basket, beneath the food, was something that could save lives. —Adapted from Number the Stars ( )52. What does the underlined word “rough” mean? A. Safe. B. Busy. C. Wide. D.

The amazing mirror effect doesn’t come out of thin air. Three important factors (要素) make it possible. _____57____The ground of the Uyuni Salt Flat is one of the flattest on Earth. The salt flat was formed when ancient lakes dried up over time. When the water of these lakes evaporated (蒸发), a thick and flat layer (层) of salt was left behind. This made the ground almost perfectly flat. Therefore, when it rains, the water doesn’t collect in water holes. _____58____ This is what creates the huge natural mirror.

People see the mirror effect during the rainy season, mainly from December to March. _____60____When the water evaporates under the sun, the “mirror” is gone and the ground becomes hard, white salt again. 第II卷(非选择题，共45分) 六、阅读并回答问题。（共5小题，每小题1分，计5分） The 2026 Jiangsu City Football League, widely known as the Su Super League, officially opened on April 11th at the Changzhou Olympic Sports Center.
