It was an overheating summer afternoon when Eden first stepped into the abandoned lot (废弃的空地) on the edge of our neighborhood. Overgrown with weeds and littered with broken glass, the space had become a symbol of desertion. But to Eden, a seventeen-year-old with rough-skinned hands and a determined smile, it was a blank painting sheet waiting to be transformed.
Eden’s journey began with a simple idea. After noticing that children had no safe place to play, he said he wanted to turn the lot into a community garden. His classmates laughed when he showed them his drafts of raised beds and a small pond, calling it “a waste of time.” Regardless of this, he spent weekends clearing wastes, his arms injured by sharp glass and stones. Neighbors watched in disbelief as this young boy, who barely stood taller than the weeds, worked tirelessly under the hot sun.
Week after week, Eden returned. He taught himself gardening through online classes, often staying up late to study soil composition. When the first seeds grew up, the entire community gathered in amazement. Children brought watering cans, elderly residents shared gardening tips, and local businesses donated materials. What started as one boy’s dream became a collective effort.
Three years later, the lot is unrecognizable. Colorful flowers bloom where once stood piles of garbage, and children laugh as they run after butterflies around the pond. Eden, now a college student, still visits every weekend to maintain the garden. He has inspired other youth in our town to start their own projects — cleaning up rivers, organizing book drives, and teaching seniors to use smartphones.
The community garden is more than just plants and soil; it’s a witness to what can happen when one person refuses to accept the situation before his eyes. Eden showed us that change doesn’t require grand gestures or vast resources. It begins with a single act of courage, a willingness to take the first step, and the belief that even the smallest hands can build something beautiful.
4. What was Eden’s classmates’ first reaction to his plan for the garden?
A. They approved of his practice. B. They considered it meaningless.
C. They suggested a different location. D. They thought it unsafe to change the lot.
5. What can be learnt about Eden?
A. He relied on others’ support to start the project.
B. He valued practical action over empty talk.
C. He prioritized his own interests over community needs.
D. He owed his academic progress to the community project.
6. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. Eden asks others to maintain the garden.
B. Eden seeks fame through environmental activism.
C. Eden is satisfied with his achievements.
D. Eden is constantly committed to community improvement.
7. What is the main message implied by the story of Eden?
A. Personal courage and initiative can lead to collective change.
B. Community gardens can improve the environment.
C. Young people are advocated to build cultural confidence.
D. Gardening is a valuable skill for everyone to learn.

New era requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us?
Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re awesome at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet.
The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parent it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine upgrading. And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly welcome future creations. This adoption is critical from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the dynamics of AI and search are changing for just about everyone.
Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in projecting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology? The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, welcome and capitalize on technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to social media. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to incorporate technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it.
While this shift brings challenges, it’s unstoppable. As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable edge.
8. What is TQ according to the text?
A. Speed of learning new languages.
B. Skill in fixing high-tech products.
C. Ability to apply new technologies.
D. Talent for following modern changes.
9. Which of the following people has a high TQ?
A. A manager who uses modern search engines.
B. A doctor who analyzes medical records with AI.
C. A grandparent who finds new-tech devices awkward.
D. A mom who watches videos of her child’s school life.
10. What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Take advantage of. B. Pay attention to.
C. Come up with. D. Watch out for.
11. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Why Are IQ and EQ Important for TQ?
B. What Makes TQ the New Intelligence?
C. Where to Start Adapting to TQ Changes?
D. How Has TQ Changed in the Modern Era?
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍新时代下“技术商数(TQ)”的定义、应用场景、重要性,以及其与智商、情商结合对人类生活工作的影响。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re awesome at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet.(他们有一种叫做TQ的东西,也就是技术商数。可以把它看作一种超能力,能理解我们曾祖父母会觉得完全不可能的最新科技产品。拥有高TQ意味着你很擅长使用那些还不是所有人都知道的酷炫新事物。)”可知,TQ是理解并运用最新科技的能力,即应用新技术的能力。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly welcome future creations.(对于临床医生来说,可能是人工智能在辅助CT扫描分析中发挥作用。TQ试图量化我们合理利用现有技术并快速接纳未来创新的能力。)”可知,利用人工智能分析医疗相关内容的医生,是合理运用现有技术的体现,具备高TQ。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, welcome and capitalize on technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future.(随着我们快速迈入未来,孩子和老师理解、接纳并capitalize on技术的能力将成为他们生活的一个决定性方面。)”可知,“capitalize on”与“理解、接纳”并列,结合语境应是对技术的积极运用,“Take advantage of”意为“利用”符合语境。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是第一段“New era requires a new vocabulary.(新时代需要新的词汇。)”、第二段对TQ的定义、第三段的应用场景、第四段的重要性及最后一段“As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable edge. (随着TQ的提升,它将与智商和情商相结合,重塑我们的生活、工作和学习方式——将技术适应能力转化为可量化的优势。)”可知,文章核心是介绍TQ为何能成为新时代的新型智力指标,所以“什么让技术商数(TQ)成为新型智力指标?”适合作为标题。故选B项。
D
Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans.
Now, new research suggests that a simple, cheap measure may significantly reduce the level of microplastics in water from your tap (水龙头): boiling and filtering (过滤) it. In a study published Wednesday in Environmental Science & Technology Letters, researchers from China found that boiling tap water for just five minutes — then filtering it after it cools — could remove at least 80 percent of its microplastics.
Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. Additionally, the research didn’t include all types of plastics. The team focused only on three common types — polystyrene, polyethylene and polypropylene — and they didn’t study other chemicals previously found in water such as vinyl chloride.
Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly difficult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought.
Scientists are still trying to determine how harmful microplastics are — but what they do know has raised concerns. The new study suggests boiling tap water could be a tool to limit intake. “The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.”
12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph?
A. By quoting an expert. B. By defining a concept.
C. By giving examples. D. By providing statistics.
13. What determines the effectiveness of trapping microplastics in water?
A. The hardness of water. B. The length of cooling time.
C. The frequency of filtering. D. The type of plastic in water.
14. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning bottled water in paragraph 4?
A. The importance of plastic recycling. B. The severity of the microplastic problem.
C. The danger in overusing pure water. D. The difficulty in treating polluted water.
15. What is Gauchotte-Lindsay’s suggestion about?
A. Choice of new research methods. B. Possible direction for further study.
C. Need to involve more researchers. D. Potential application of the findings.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于减少自来水中微塑料污染的新研究。微塑料污染已遍及全球,甚至进入人体。中国研究人员发现,将自来水煮沸五分钟并冷却后过滤可能会显著降低自来水中的微塑料含量。研究虽未涵盖所有塑料类型和化学物质,但揭示了一种潜在解决方案。苏格兰环境工程师指出,该研究展示了煮沸法的有效性,并建议升级饮用水处理厂以推广应用。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans. (微塑料已经成为地球上常见的污染源——它们出现在在深海和喜马拉雅山上,被困在火山岩中,填满海鸟的胃,甚至落在南极的新雪中。它们甚至出现了在人类体内)”可推知,作者通过举例提出微塑料污染的问题。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. (至关重要的是,这一过程依赖于含有足够碳酸钙的水来截留塑料。在这项研究中,将含有300毫克碳酸钙的硬水煮沸后,塑料含量下降了近90%。但在碳酸钙含量低于60毫克的样品中,煮沸只降低了25%的塑料含量)”可知,决定在水中截留微塑料的有效性的是水的硬度。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly diffcult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought. (尽管如此,研究结果显示了减少微塑料接触的潜在途径——这一任务正变得越来越困难。今年早些时候,科学家们发现,即使是瓶装水,其微塑料含量也比原先想象的高出10到1000倍。)”可推断,作者提到瓶装水是为了说明微塑料污染的严重性。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中““The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.” (苏格兰格拉斯哥大学的环境工程师Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay没有参与这项研究,她告诉《新科学家》杂志:“他们展示微塑料如何在煮沸过程中被截留的方式很不错。”“我们应该考虑升级饮用水处理厂,以便它们能去除微塑料”)”可推知,Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay的建议是关于这项研究结果的潜在应用,即升级饮用水处理厂。故选D。
第二节:阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Glance through your WeChat Moments or TikTok feed, and you’ll see all kinds of posts: a friend strongly recommending a “magic study method” that guarantees top grades or a video claiming “eating chocolate every day prevents colds”. ____16____ The answer lies in critical thinking.
Critical thinking doesn’t mean being negative or arguing with everyone. It simply means taking a step back, asking questions, and refusing to accept information at face value. ____17____ We tend to believe things that fit our existing ideas or that lots of people are talking about. But this autopilot mode can mislead us.
Imagine your teammate suggests a plan that everyone else nods along with immediately in a group discussion. A critical thinker won’t just agree to avoid conflict. They’ll ask: Do we have the resources to pull this off? ____18____ Is there a better way to divide the work? These questions don’t make you a troublemaker — they make the project stronger.
____19____ You’ve probably heard “you’re either a math person or a language person”. A critical thinker would look for evidence. Research on learning styles proves while people have preferences, anyone can improve at math or languages with the right method. Critical thinking turns you from a passive learner into an active one who takes charge of their own education.
Next time you’re about to hit“share”on a post or accept a“fact”as true, stop for 10 seconds. ____20____ You’ll be surprised by how much better your decisions become and how much more confident you feel in your own voice. After all, the smartest students aren’t the ones who know all the answers — they’re the ones who know how to ask the right questions.
A. Our brains love shortcuts.
B. Turn off your brain’s autopilot.
C. Does this plan fit our deadline?
D. Why might they share this information?
E. How do you decide which of these to believe?
F. Social media is where critical thinking is most needed.
G. Critical thinking also shines in facing study misconceptions.
【答案】16. E 17. A 18. C 19. G 20. B

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍越剧的起源与艺术形式,讲述新版《新龙门客栈》越剧在沉浸式舞台、营销模式上的创新,以及其成功为传统戏曲革新传承带来的启示与美好前景。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:越剧是中国传统戏曲的主要流派之一,起源于浙江省绍兴市嵊州县,与京剧一样,它融合了古典歌唱、舞蹈和表演的独特叙事形式,形成了一种统一的艺术表达。固定搭配integrate...into...,意为“把……融合成……”,所以此处为介词into。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意:然而和众多传统艺术一样,这种古典艺术一直难以获得年轻人关注,直到创新版《新龙门客栈》打破这一僵局。此处表示“直到……才……”,用连词until。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:首先,它具有一种沉浸式的体验,剧院被改造成一个充满密道的客栈,将舞台和观众席结合在一起。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为experience表抽象地点,从句缺少地点状语,所以用关系副词where。故填where。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:首先,它具有一种沉浸式的体验,剧院被改造成一个充满密道的客栈,将舞台和观众席结合在一起。此处为非谓语动词作伴随状语,逻辑主语the theater与combine之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词combining。
【40题详解】
考查代词。句意:除大胆创新改编外,《新龙门客栈》还开创了全新营销策略,一种借助短视频平台实现无障碍线上观看的策略,有效吸引年轻观众。此处指代前文单数名词marketing strategy,泛指同类事物中的一个,用代词one。
【41题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:然而真正定义其成功的不仅是现代吸引力,更是中华传统文化之美与传承者的坚守付出。此处引导主语从句,从句中缺少主语,指代事物内容,所以用连接代词what。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他们将古老与现代联系起来,证明了创新在植根于传统时才会蓬勃发展,而传统在创造性地分享时也能焕发出新的生机。此处为省略结构,root与逻辑主语为被动关系,完整形式为when it is rooted in heritage,省略主语与be动词,用过去分词rooted。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:《新龙门客栈》的成功为其他中国传统艺术形式预示了一个光明的未来,展示了当创新植根于对文化遗产的尊重时,如何能够极大地扩展艺术的可能性。此处修饰名词future,需用形容词作定语,promise的形容词形式promising意为“有前景的、充满希望的”。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:《新龙门客栈》的成功为其他中国传统艺术形式预示了一个光明的未来,展示了当创新植根于对文化遗产的尊重时,如何能够极大地扩展艺术的可能性。此处修饰动词expand,需用副词作状语,dramatic的副词形式为dramatically意为“极大地”。
【45题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:正如该剧的主演陈丽君所说:“戏曲刻在中国人的DNA里。扔下一块小石头,DNA就会觉醒。”此处为谓语动词,陈述客观事实用一般现在时;主语Opera与carve之间为被动关系,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为is carved。

【答案】One possible version 1:
Dear Jenny,
I’m writing to share my opinion on the two speech topics for our class English speech contest. From my perspective, “The Beauty of Art” is a more favorable one.
As is known to all, art plays a vital role in our life. It helps us discover the beauty around us, develop good taste and enrich our spiritual world. Besides, talking about art allows us to share our experiences in painting, music or calligraphy, making our speeches more vivid and meaningful. I believe this topic can help all students feel the power of art.
Hopefully, my suggestion will be taken into consideration.
Yours,
Li Hua
One possible version 2:
Dear Jenny,
I’m writing to express my idea about the speech contest topics provided by you. I prefer “The Charm of Sports” to “The Beauty of Art”.
Firstly, sports are closely related to our daily life and have great charm. It not only keeps our bodies healthy and strong but also helps us build confidence, develop teamwork spirit and relieve pressure from study. Additionally, every student has their own sports experiences, such as playing basketball, running or swimming, which can make our speeches more real and touching. This topic can also encourage us to keep doing sports.
I think this topic will be popular among all our classmates.
Yours,
Li Hua

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
On a cold, damp evening in mid-November, a sharp wind cut through the streets, but Jack paid little attention to the chill. As a delivery rider, he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. In an instant, his heart sank, and a wave of hopelessness swept over him, turning his calm evening into a nightmare. That bike was far more than just a vehicle; it was his lifeline, the only way for him to earn daily income and cover his living expenses.
Panic set in as he remembered the undelivered orders — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike.
Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, Jack clenched his fists and made a firm decision. He took out his poor savings, bought a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s apartment, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his integrity kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell. The door opened, revealing a woman whose expression shifted from curiosity to surprise and then to heartfelt sympathy as she saw the exhausted man before her. His clothes were dusty, but the gifts in his hands were held with care. “Ms. White, these are for you,” he grinned, offering the apples and milk tea. “Wishing you happiness and good health. I am truly sorry about the delay.” Tears welled up in Ms. White’s eyes. “Oh, Jack! You shouldn’t have walked such a long way just for this!” she said, her voice soft with emotion for his unshakable honesty, even amid his own misfortune!
Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night. She posted a video describing what happened, writing, “Even when caught in his own storm, he still reached out to warm others.” The post quickly went viral, receiving millions of likes and shares. Strangers were touched by the ordinary man’s extraordinary act. The wave of kindness soon reached his delivery company. They promptly responded, providing Jack with a brand-new e-bike and a cash reward to support his honest work. Even more wonderfully, with the help of numerous alert eyes online, his original bike was located and returned.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述外卖骑手Jack在11月的一个寒冷夜晚,赖以谋生的二手电动车被盗,陷入绝望;但他仍牢记未完成的订单,心怀愧疚;在得到顾客White女士谅解后,他步行数公里,自费送上苹果与热奶茶赔礼道歉,用行动坚守诚信与责任的暖心故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容 “终于,Jack气喘吁吁地赶到了White女士家门口,按响了门铃。” 可知,第一段可描写Jack见到 White女士后的场景,包括他疲惫的状态、送上礼物与真诚道歉,以及White女士的惊讶与感动。
②由第二段首句内容 “White女士被Jack的举动深深打动,决定当晚在网上分享这个故事。” 可知,第二段可描写故事发布到网上后引发的热烈反响,以及Jack最终获得公司帮助、丢失的电动车被找回的圆满结局。
2.续写线索:电动车被盗→心怀愧疚致歉→顾客谅解→步行送赔礼→顾客深受感动→网络分享走红→获得公司奖励与帮助→丢失车辆找回

It was an overheating summer afternoon when Eden first stepped into the abandoned lot (废弃的空地) on the edge of our neighborhood. Overgrown with weeds and littered with broken glass, the space had become a symbol of desertion. But to Eden, a seventeen-year-old with rough-skinned hands and a determined smile, it was a blank painting sheet waiting to be transformed.
Eden’s journey began with a simple idea. After noticing that children had no safe place to play, he said he wanted to turn the lot into a community garden. His classmates laughed when he showed them his drafts of raised beds and a small pond, calling it “a waste of time.” Regardless of this, he spent weekends clearing wastes, his arms injured by sharp glass and stones. Neighbors watched in disbelief as this young boy, who barely stood taller than the weeds, worked tirelessly under the hot sun.
Week after week, Eden returned. He taught himself gardening through online classes, often staying up late to study soil composition. When the first seeds grew up, the entire community gathered in amazement. Children brought watering cans, elderly residents shared gardening tips, and local businesses donated materials. What started as one boy’s dream became a collective effort.
Three years later, the lot is unrecognizable. Colorful flowers bloom where once stood piles of garbage, and children laugh as they run after butterflies around the pond. Eden, now a college student, still visits every weekend to maintain the garden. He has inspired other youth in our town to start their own projects — cleaning up rivers, organizing book drives, and teaching seniors to use smartphones.
The community garden is more than just plants and soil; it’s a witness to what can happen when one person refuses to accept the situation before his eyes. Eden showed us that change doesn’t require grand gestures or vast resources. It begins with a single act of courage, a willingness to take the first step, and the belief that even the smallest hands can build something beautiful.
4. What was Eden’s classmates’ first reaction to his plan for the garden?
A. They approved of his practice. B. They considered it meaningless.
C. They suggested a different location. D. They thought it unsafe to change the lot.
5. What can be learnt about Eden?
A. He relied on others’ support to start the project.
B. He valued practical action over empty talk.
C. He prioritized his own interests over community needs.
D. He owed his academic progress to the community project.
6. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. Eden asks others to maintain the garden.
B. Eden seeks fame through environmental activism.
C. Eden is satisfied with his achievements.
D. Eden is constantly committed to community improvement.
7. What is the main message implied by the story of Eden?
A. Personal courage and initiative can lead to collective change.
B. Community gardens can improve the environment.
C. Young people are advocated to build cultural confidence.
D. Gardening is a valuable skill for everyone to learn.
C
New era requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us?
Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re awesome at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet.
The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parent it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine upgrading. And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly welcome future creations. This adoption is critical from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the dynamics of AI and search are changing for just about everyone.
Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in projecting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology? The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, welcome and capitalize on technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to social media. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to incorporate technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it.

Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans.
Now, new research suggests that a simple, cheap measure may significantly reduce the level of microplastics in water from your tap (水龙头): boiling and filtering (过滤) it. In a study published Wednesday in Environmental Science & Technology Letters, researchers from China found that boiling tap water for just five minutes — then filtering it after it cools — could remove at least 80 percent of its microplastics.
Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. Additionally, the research didn’t include all types of plastics. The team focused only on three common types — polystyrene, polyethylene and polypropylene — and they didn’t study other chemicals previously found in water such as vinyl chloride.
Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly difficult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought.
Scientists are still trying to determine how harmful microplastics are — but what they do know has raised concerns. The new study suggests boiling tap water could be a tool to limit intake. “The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.”
12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph?
A. By quoting an expert. B. By defining a concept.
C. By giving examples. D. By providing statistics.
13. What determines the effectiveness of trapping microplastics in water?
A. The hardness of water. B. The length of cooling time.
C. The frequency of filtering. D. The type of plastic in water.
14. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning bottled water in paragraph 4?
A. The importance of plastic recycling. B. The severity of the microplastic problem.
C. The danger in overusing pure water. D. The difficulty in treating polluted water.
15. What is Gauchotte-Lindsay’s suggestion about?
A. Choice of new research methods. B. Possible direction for further study.
C. Need to involve more researchers. D. Potential application of the findings.
第二节:阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Glance through your WeChat Moments or TikTok feed, and you’ll see all kinds of posts: a friend strongly recommending a “magic study method” that guarantees top grades or a video claiming “eating chocolate every day prevents colds”. ____16____ The answer lies in critical thinking.
Critical thinking doesn’t mean being negative or arguing with everyone. It simply means taking a step back, asking questions, and refusing to accept information at face value. ____17____ We tend to believe things that fit our existing ideas or that lots of people are talking about. But this autopilot mode can mislead us.
Imagine your teammate suggests a plan that everyone else nods along with immediately in a group discussion. A critical thinker won’t just agree to avoid conflict. They’ll ask: Do we have the resources to pull this off? ____18____ Is there a better way to divide the work? These questions don’t make you a troublemaker — they make the project stronger.
____19____ You’ve probably heard “you’re either a math person or a language person”. A critical thinker would look for evidence. Research on learning styles proves while people have preferences, anyone can improve at math or languages with the right method. Critical thinking turns you from a passive learner into an active one who takes charge of their own education.
Next time you’re about to hit“share”on a post or accept a“fact”as true, stop for 10 seconds. ____20____ You’ll be surprised by how much better your decisions become and how much more confident you feel in your own voice. After all, the smartest students aren’t the ones who know all the answers — they’re the ones who know how to ask the right questions.
A. Our brains love shortcuts.
B. Turn off your brain’s autopilot.
C. Does this plan fit our deadline?
D. Why might they share this information?
E. How do you decide which of these to believe?
F. Social media is where critical thinking is most needed.
G. Critical thinking also shines in facing study misconceptions.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
On a cold, damp evening in mid-November, a sharp wind cut through the streets, but Jack paid little attention to the chill. As a delivery rider, he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. In an instant, his heart sank, and a wave of hopelessness swept over him, turning his calm evening into a nightmare. That bike was far more than just a vehicle; it was his lifeline, the only way for him to earn daily income and cover his living expenses.
Panic set in as he remembered the undelivered orders — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike.
Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, Jack clenched his fists and made a firm decision. He took out his poor savings, bought a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s apartment, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his integrity kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape.

1.续写词数应为150个左右;

Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night.
