Custom Gene Therapy Saves a Baby's Life Doctors saved a little boy with a rare disease by fixing a tiny mistake in his DNA.They built a treatment just for him,like fixing a printing mistake in a very long book.His body healed.This could lead to cures for thousands of other rare diseases. Rice That Loves Hot Weather Chinese scientists found a gene called QT12 that helps rice survive hot nights.When added to regular rice,it helped the rice produce 78%more food during high temperatures.As the planet warms,this discovery will help farmers grow enough rice to feed millions of people. AI That Reads Your Mind(Sort Of) Scientists created an AI that turns brain signals into words using a simple cap with sensors. People who cannot speak,like stroke patients,can now communicate again.One woman said "I love you"to her family for the first time in 15 years. Super-Sticky Glue That Works Underwater Scientists created a powerful new glue that works perfectly underwater.They got the idea from a kind of rough little sea creature that sticks tightly to ships and rocks.The glue is so strong that it could change underwater repairs,medicine,and more. 21.What effect does QT12 have A.It warms the planet. B.It increases rice production. C.It cures rare diseases. D.It makes farming sustainable. 22.Which discovery best shows that scientists sometimes learn from nature?

Anne Shirley is 11,has red hair she hates,and talks constantly.The moment shy Matthew Cuthbert picks her up from the train station by mistake(they want a boy to help on the farm),she just starts going on about everything:the trees,the lake she immediately renames "The Lake of Shining Waters"...I was drawn in from that first chapter. Anne isn't one of those perfect heroines.She loses it when a boy calls her"carrots".She dyes her hair green trying to make it black.Honestly,she's a mess.But she's also the kind of person who finds beauty everywhere.What really got me was how much she wants to belong.She's been bounced from family to family,and she's terrified the Cuthberts will send her back.That fear of not being wanted,I think,everyone gets.Watching her slowly win over strict Marilla and find a real home at Green Gables...it just hit me hard.And when she meets Diana Barry,Diana actually wants to be friends with her. By the end,I was crying.Anne gives up her college scholarship and stays to take care of Marilla.She grows up and learns to shoulder responsibility.That selfless choice touched me deeply. When I closed the book,I looked out of the window,the trees outside suddenly seeming a little brighter.This book isn't really about plot.It's about watching someone mess up,forgive,and choose to see the good in things even when life seems hard.. 24.What made the author start reading Anne of Green Gables? A.Her mom's persuasion. B.Her own growing interest. C.The book's great appeal. D.The school's recommendation. 25.What can we know about Anne from Paragraph 3? A.She feels proud of her appearance. B.She is eager for a sense of belonging. C.She pursues perfection in daily life. D.She is afraid of talking with strangers. 26.Why did the author cry when she read the end of the book? A.She found the ending was sad. B.She felt pity for Anne's bad luck. C.She wished she had read it earlier. D.She was moved by Anne's growth. 27.What is the biggest inspiration the author gains from the book? A.Many hands make light work. B.Every cloud has a silver lining. C.Birds of a feather flock together. D.Actions speak louder than words. 高二英语第4页（共10页） C (选必二U5 Education) From high school to university,a growing number of teachers are fighting against classroom technology.Laura Lomas,a literature professor,now asks her students to attend a play that changes every night because if the play were recorded,students could easily have AI write a report for them. She has also replaced essays with oral presentations.In Sweden,schools have removed digital tools from young children and returned to physical books and handwriting.Denmark and Finland are doing the same. It's not just about ChatGPT making cheating easier.It is the constant distraction that worries teachers most.Tech may help with subjects like algebra,but there is little proof that it improves learning in most other subjects.Meanwhile,handwriting is valued again for helping thinking and memory.A computer science teacher now has students hand write code,because it helps them think more clearly. However,not everyone can easily go back to old ways.Parents often have little say in whether their kids use educational technology.A professor points out that while many teachers want to bring back pen-and-paper exams,large public universities are not supporting them.Hiring enough teaching assistants is one example of where they fall short.He says the administrators are speaking out of both sides of their mouths.They talk about returning to traditional learning,but their actions do not match their words. Despite these difficulties,some teachers are still trying to bring back what truly matters in education.One English teacher had students write five literature responses with their pens,each taking a full class period.In the past,that might have seemed like a poor use of time.But now,with digital distractions everywhere,maybe the best thing a teacher can offer is a quiet space to think. After all,deep learning requires focus and uninterrupted time,something that tech often breaks. Teachers want students to think deeply,not just click quickly. 28.How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A.By citing a professor. B.By defining a concept. C.By giving examples. D.By providing statistics. 29.What is teachers'major concern about classroom technology? A.It causes continuous distraction. B.It fails to improve learning results. C.It weakens students'writing skills. D.It receives little support from schools. 30.What does the author imply about the administrators in Paragraph 3? A.They hold changeable viewpoints. B.They say one thing but do differently. C.They plan to hire enough assistants. D.They speak ill of traditional teaching 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Regained Popularity of Handwriting B.The Golden Time for Campus Digital Tools C.The Shift away from Screens in Classrooms D.The End of Educational Technology Forever 高二英语第5页（共10页) :※※※※ ※※必※ ※必※※ ※必※※ D ※必※※ (选必一U3 Conservation) ※兴※必 必※※※ Every autumn,millions of monarch butterflies (begin an incredible journey.They ※※※※ travel up to 4,000 kilometers from Canada to the forests of central Mexico,where they spend the : ※※※※ ※※※※ winter.This migration is so astonishing,for no single butterfly makes the round trip.Rather,it is a ※※※※ family effort spread across three to four generations. ※※※※ ※※※※ The butterflies that leave Canada in autumn are a special "super-generation".While earlier ※※※※ generations lived only a few weeks,these monarchs survive up to eight months.They fly all the ※※※※ ※※※※ way south without stopping,guided by a built-in compass that scientists are still trying to understand.Somehow,they find their way to the same tiny forests their ancestors used years before. 成※※※※ :※※※※ When spring arrives,these super-generation butterflies head north.They lay eggs along the :※※※※ way and die.Their offspring continue the journey,pushing forward generation after generation. :※兴※※ This pattern repeats until,after three or four generations,monarchs finally reach Canada again.No ※※※※ single butterfly learns the route from its parents.Yet each one knows exactly where to go. ※※必※ ※※※※ This natural wonder,however,is now in danger.Over the past two decades,the monarch ※※※※ population has fallen by more than 80 percent.Illegal logging in Mexico has destroyed much of ※※必※ ※兴※※ their winter forest.Farmers have removed milkweed,the only plant monarch caterpillars ( ※必※※ can eat,to make room for crops.Climate change also brings unusual weather that confuses their ※※※※ ※必※※ sense of direction. ※※※※ But there is hope.Conservation groups are replanting trees in Mexico,and people across 斟※※※※ ※米※※ North America are being encouraged to plant milkweed in their gardens."This is a wonder worth ※※※※ saving,"says Dr.Emily Williams,who has studied monarchs for nearly twenty years."The 器裂 question is whether we act in time."Each autumn,the forests of Mexico still turn orange as ※必必※ millions of monarchs arrive.Watching them is a reminder of nature's power and our responsibility 兴※※※ ※※※※ to protect it. 兴※※※ 32.What makes the monarch butterfly's migration so astonishing? ※※※※ ※兴※必 A.It happens only once every few years.B.It is guided by human tracking devices. ※※※※ C.It is the longest migration of any insect.D.It takes several generations to complete. ※※※※ ※※※※ 33.What does the underlined word"offspring"in paragraph 3 probably mean? ※※※※ A.Children.

The best part is that you do not need any special skills.Just look around your room,That 救 water bottle with a small scratch (is still useful:38 Under-consumption pushes you to ask a simple question.Do I really need this,or do I just want something new?Nine times out of ten, you already know the answer. 39 Every time you use something longer,you create less waste.Less plastic,less packaging,less pressure on the Earth.That is a win-win situation.You save money and the planet gets a little greener.No efforts needed. Of course,this does not mean never buying anything.That would be unrealistic.It just means buying less often and being more thankful for what you own.40 So you just buy and buy and 赵 buy.However,choosing to enjoy what you have is a quietly powerful move.And honestly?It feels pretty great.Give it a try.You might surprise yourself.

Growing up, we didn't have pets because my mother was in poor health. In my twenties and early thirties, I was focused entirely on my career. Animals warrant a part of my life at all. Everything changed. In my late thirties, my husband suggested we get a cat. So we adopted Oliver from a local shelter. Through taking care of Oliver, I discovered a love for volunteering. I spent two years working at the shelter, and IT completely changed my outlook on life. Later, I became a ventilated for the rescue organization. Every weekend, I helped match cats with loving families. IT was hard work, but very rewarding. Over the years, we helped more than two hundred and fifty cats find new homes. I also adopted two more cats, luna and milo. My kids often helped me take care of them. Some of my relatives also adopted cats from the shelter. I honestly can't imagine my life without pets.
