Some people think that intelligence is something you are born with. But psychology professor Carol Dweck discovered that people's beliefs about their abilities actually fall into two categories. Those with a growth mindset believe that abilities can be developed through effort and learning. How a growth mindset helps people succeed People with a growth mindset see challenges differently: • They treat failures as opportunities to learn, not as evidence of being "not smart." • They believe that effort is the path to mastery, not a sign of weakness. Over time, this mindset leads to greater achievement because those who have it are more willing to take risks, accept feedback, and keep going when things get hard. 26. What is a growth mindset mainly about? A. Believing you are the best. B. Accepting that you cannot change. C. Believing abilities can grow. D. Avoiding difficult challenges. 27. How do people with a growth mindset view failure? A. As a reason to give up. B. As a learning chance. C. As a sign of laziness. D. As a personal weakness. 28. What is the likely result of having a growth mindset? A. Less interest in learning. B. Avoiding feedback from others. C. Greater achievement over time. D. More anxiety about tests. Task IV Present what to do for a healthier life. B World Sleep Day takes place on the Friday before the Spring Equinox each year. One of the most effective ways to celebrate this day—and to improve your overall health—is to create a healthy sleep routine. Good sleep helps your brain work better, improves your mood, and strengthens your immune system. Here's how you can get started. Set a consistent schedule Choose a regular bedtime and wake-up time, and stick to them—even on weekends. Your body clock works best when it has a predictable rhythm. Don't change your sleep schedule by more than an hour, or you will feel even more tired on Monday morning. [___________] Make your bedroom a place of comfort and calm. Keep it cool, dark, and quiet. Remove electronic devices, or at least put them away 30 minutes before you sleep. The blue light from screens can trick your brain into thinking it's still daytime. If you need a distraction, try reading a paper book or listening to soft music instead. Watch what you eat and drink Avoid heavy meals, caffeine, and sugary drinks in the evening. Your body will be too busy digesting food to rest properly. A light snack, like a banana or a glass of warm milk, can actually help you sleep better. Stick to a wind-down routine Spend the last hour before bed doing relaxing activities. Take a warm bath, write in a diary, or do some gentle stretches. This signals to your body that it's time to slow down. Be patient! If you don't fall asleep after 20 minutes, get up and do something calm in dim light until you feel sleepy. 29. What is the purpose of a healthy sleep routine? A. To get more time to read. B. To improve overall health. C. To finish more homework. D. To become a famous sleeper. 30. Which of the following is the most suitable for [___]? A. Create a comfortable sleep environment B. Buy a new phone C. Set a loud alarm D. Drink strong coffee 31. What should you avoid doing in the hour before bed? A. Reading a paper book. B. Listening to soft music. C. Using electronic devices. D. Writing in a diary. 32. What should you do if you cannot fall asleep? A. Stay in bed and worry. B. Watch videos on your phone. C. Get up and do something calm. D. Eat a heavy snack. Task V Explore amazing plants. C When you think of a fern (蕨类植物), you might imagine a common green plant in a pot or in a shady forest. But there is one fern that is far from ordinary. Cyathea rojasiana, found in the rainforests of Panama, has a truly astonishing ability: it can turn its dead leaves into living roots. Most plants simply drop their dead leaves, which fall to the ground and eventually decompose (分解). But Cyathea rojasiana does something completely different. When its old leaves die, instead of falling off, they slowly bend down towards the ground. Once the tip of the dead leaf touches the soil, it begins to transform. The old leaf tissue starts to sprout new, living roots right from its tip, digging itself into the ground to search for water and nutrients. Scientists call this incredible process a "zombie leaf." This ability is an amazing survival strategy. The rainforests where this fern lives have very poor soil. Nutrients are quickly washed away by heavy rain. By turning its own dead leaves into roots, the tree fern can essentially "recycle" itself. It creates a network of new roots that can reach fresh patches of soil and bring in more food for the main plant. This is a fantastic example of how nature finds clever solutions to difficult challenges. So, how exactly does this work? Scientists are still studying the process to understand how the cells in the dead leaf can come back to life and change into root cells. This phenomenon is extremely rare in the plant kingdom. Understanding it could one day help scientists develop new ways to grow crops in poor soil conditions or even help in the regeneration of human tissues. For now, Cyathea rojasiana remains a wonderful reminder that the natural world is full of surprises. Even a humble fern can teach us lessons about adaptation, recycling, and the never-ending will to survive. 33. What is the astonishing ability of Cyathea rojasiana? A. It can grow in complete darkness. B. Its leaves turn different colours in autumn. C. It can turn its dead leaves into living roots. D. It produces the largest leaves in the plant kingdom. 34. What happens after the dead leaf tip touches the soil? A. It quickly dries up and breaks off. B. It turns into a new fern plant immediately. C. It attracts insects with a special smell. D. It starts sprouting new, living roots. 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. Cyathea Rojasiana: The Zombie Fern B. How to Grow Ferns in Poor Soil C. The Most Beautiful Fern in the World D. Why Rainforest Soils Are So Poor 36. What can the study of this fern possibly help with in the future? A. Making new types of pots for gardeners. B. Developing new ways to grow crops in poor soil. C. Finding a cure for the common cold. D. Building stronger furniture from wood. Task VI Experience the value of a broken mug. D Beth had a secret talent that she kept hidden from everyone at school. She loved to sing. When she was alone in her room, she would belt out her favourite songs, imagining herself on a big stage. But at school, she was known as quiet Beth, the girl who never spoke up. One Tuesday, the music teacher, Mr. Davis, announced that the school would be holding a talent show. [①] "I want everyone to consider taking part," he said, looking around the room. Beth's heart pounded with a mix of excitement and fear. For days she went back and forth. "I can't do it. What if I forget the lyrics? What if everyone laughs?" she thought. She told no one about her secret dream. On the morning of the tryouts, Beth arrived at school to find her best friend, Mia, waiting by her locker. [②] "Beth, I know you can sing," Mia said softly. "I heard you one day when I came to your house. You have a beautiful voice, Beth." Beth was shocked and a little embarrassed. "Oh, Mia...I could never sing in front of everyone." Mia took her hand. "I think you can. And I made this for you." She gave Beth a small package. Inside was a mug with a small, mended crack on the side. On the mug was a note: "Kintsugi: the Japanese art of repairing broken things with gold. The cracks make it more beautiful, not less." Beth looked at the mug. The golden line running through the crack was the most beautiful part. [③] "See?" Mia said. "Our imperfections don't make us weaker. They make us who we are. Show everyone your voice, Beth, crack and all." That afternoon, Beth walked onto the stage. As she began to sing, she felt the fear turn into something else—freedom. Her voice, which she had always thought was too ordinary, filled the hall. [④] After she finished, there was a moment of silence, and then the room exploded with applause. She didn't win first place, but it didn't matter. Beth had found her voice. She learned that the very things she once tried to hide were the things that made her shine. 37. Why was Beth known as quiet at school? A. She didn't like her classmates. B. She was new to the school. C. She kept her singing talent hidden. D. She was afraid of the teachers. 38. What did Mia give Beth before the tryouts? A. A ticket to a concert. B. A golden necklace. C. A song she had written. D. A mug with a mended crack. 39. What does Kintsugi teach us according to the story? A. Broken things should be thrown away. B. Imperfections can make something more beautiful. C. Gold is stronger than any other material. D. Art is more important than friendship. 40. Which underlined sentence shows Beth's change of heart? A. Sentence ①. B. Sentence ②. C. Sentence ③. D. Sentence ④. 非选择题（共50分） 四、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） A)请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为41~45的相应横线上。 Last 41. ______ (星期六), my cousin invited me to try tai chi in the park.

But behind this great success was a story of persistence, resilience, and learning from failure. Zworykin was born in Russia in 1889. From a young age, he was fascinated by electricity and machinery. After studying engineering, he moved to the United States, where he began working on what would become his greatest contribution: the television. However, his early experiments were failures. The first "television" system he developed produced a blurry picture, and his bosses were unimpressed. They told him to stop wasting his time on such a useless project. Zworykin was disappointed but refused to give up. He believed that the idea was too important to be abandoned. He continued his research in his free time, often working late into the night. During this period, he learned from his earlier mistakes and improved his designs. He also worked on developing the iconoscope, the first practical video camera tube, which could turn images into electronic signals. This breakthrough was the key that made modern television possible. His determination finally paid off. Years later, he demonstrated a working television system to the world. It was a huge success, and it laid the foundation for the TV sets that would soon become a central part of homes everywhere. Zworykin’s story shows that failure is not the end, but rather a necessary step on the road to success. His curiosity and resilience changed the entertainment industry forever.
