Assassin’s Creed: Shadows by Ubisoft
Release date: March 20 Where to play: Mac, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox Series X
Pretty much for the entire run of the series, Assassin’s Creed fans have had one request: a game set in feudal Japan. That game, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, originally scheduled to be released in 2024, is finally out in 2025. You’ll play as two main characters, swapping between the fictional assassin Naoe and the nonfictional samurai Yasuke. All told, Shadows could be the biggest Assassin’s Creed in years — or the biggest failure. Either way, one to watch!
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD by Nintendo
Release date: January 16 Where to play: Nintendo Switch
When Donkey Kong Country Returns first came out in 2010, it was the first DK Country game not to involve Rare, and it came as some relief to fans that this installment of the classic platformer series felt fresh and fun.

Monster Hunter: Wilds by Capcom
Release date: February 28 Where to play: PlayStation5, Windows PC, Xbox Series X
Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise somehow manages to get both deeper and more approachable with each entry.

Passage 4
(2025·安徽·二模)
In 2024, China’s film industry witnessed remarkable growth, marked by the outpouring of high-quality works. Rooted in realistic themes, they strike a chord in everyone’s heart. Below are four outstanding films that shone on the big screen.
Successor
Douban Rating: 7.1
Successor uses dark humor to explore family bonds, education, and personal growth. It follows Ma Chenggang, who adopts an extreme “poverty training” method to prepare his son for inheriting the family business. Labeled an “educational horror film”, it not only raises questions about problematic teaching approaches but also makes viewers reflect on how education shapes children’s lives.
Her Story
Douban Rating: 9.1
Her Story weaves together the life journeys of three women at different stages. It portrays warm daily interactions between urban men and women while emphasizing the importance of self-love. Directed, written, and edited by Shao Yihui, the film earned over 200 million yuan in just four days, gaining both huge box office success and positive word-of-mouth.
Article 20
Douban Rating: 7.5
Article 20, directed by renowned filmmakers Zhang Yimou, is a comedy inspired by Article 20 of China’s Criminal Law (on self-defense). Starring Lei Jiayin and Ma Li, it tells the story of prosecutor (检察官) Han Min, who deals with a controversial case while sorting out his own family troubles. The film offers a thought-provoking look at legal principles and real-life social issues in modern China.
Like a Rolling Stone
Douban Rating: 8.8
Like a Rolling Stone, directed by Yin Lichuan and starring Yong Mei, focuses on women’s self-awareness and growth. It follows Li Hong, a housewife who sets off on a solo journey amid (在……之中) the dullness of middle age, rediscovering her self-worth. Its metaphorical (比喻性的) title — rich in cultural and philosophical meaning — has sparked wide discussions, making it deeply relatable, especially to female viewers.

Passage 1
(2026·安徽马鞍山·二模)
Textbooks don’t always get the appreciation they deserve. Often looked over quickly for assignments or used only when exams approach, many are quickly forgotten once a course ends. However, some textbooks stand out for their clearness, usefulness, and ability to make difficult ideas easier to understand. The following selections highlight textbooks that Stanford students found especially memorable — not because they were required, but because they genuinely helped learning click into place.
Grad School Essentials by Zachary Shore — Emmett Chung
Shore’s technique of reading the conclusion and introduction before strategically glancing through chapters makes what would otherwise be time-consuming research much easier.
Intro to Probability by Ellen Vitercik — Allie Skalnik
It’s everything a textbook should be: easy to understand, precise, and full of figures that actually help the concepts click into place like building blocks instead of merely crowding the page.
The Laws of Thermodynamics by Peter Atkins — Chris Procaccino
Despite its name, Thermodynamics seems to be more of an exercise in proofs than an exercise in thermodynamics. What’s great about the textbook is that it spends pages defining concepts like temperature and heat that most other textbooks ignore. What’s not-so-great about it is that it makes a concept seem more complicated than it needs to be for most general chemistry courses.
Sensation & Perception by Jeremy Wolfe — Chloe Shannon Wong
Curious about what a nerve cell in the eye is? Or why the back of the eye is organized backwards? Check out Sensation & Perception. In my opinion, this textbook was definitely challenging in some parts, but its clear list of terms and explanatory diagrams save the day.
1.Why do the four textbooks stand out?
A.They make learning easier. B.They are designed for examinations.
C.They include assignments. D.They are used throughout the course.
2.What does Procaccino say about The Laws of Thermodynamics?
A.It suits both beginners and specialists. B.It provides theoretical proofs.
C.It has both strengths and weaknesses. D.It offers alternative definitions.
3.Whose book primarily deals with the topic related to biology?
A.Zachary Shore. B.Ellen Vitercik. C.Peter Atkins. D.Jeremy Wolfe.

Kruger National Park Animals
Nothing will prepare you for the huge volume of wildlife that you’ll be able to see in Kruger National Park. The park is home to 114 different species of reptiles; more than 500 species of birds; and 147 mammals.

When is the Best Time to Visit Kruger National Park?
The driest months being June, July, and August are the best time of year to visit the park, when the days are sunny and warm and the nights are cooler. Many trees and shrubs have lost their leaves, and water sources dry up, making it easier to spot game around the remaining waterholes.

Four facts about humanitarian aid you need to know
Global needs rise as governments cut humanitarian aid greatly. Now is the time to address poverty, conflict and unrest. The International Rescue Committee (IRC) urges governments to rethink and invest in aid. This funding shortfall has become the IRC’s greatest obstacle. Here are four facts that show why humanitarian aid matters and why continued support is critical.
1. Aid cuts cost lives: Millions of people are at risk as some major countries reduce aid for the humanitarian crises. For people facing war, homelessness, hunger or disease, aid means access to food, clean water, medical care and shelter.
2. Diseases have been wiped out globally thanks to aid: Humanitarian aid has greatly improved global health. In the last 30 years, death rates for children under five have dropped by half. Smallpox (天花) has been rooted out, and polio (小儿麻痹症) cases have dropped by 99%.

3. Humanitarian aid accounts for only a small part of government spending: Quite a few people are concerned that it takes up a somewhat large share of the national budget-actually less than 1% in most countries. Though the top donor in total, the U. S. gives only 0.24% of its budget (vs. Norway’s 1% + ), yet these small investments save lives.
4. The largest humanitarian crisis on record is happening: After two years of civil war, Sudan is now in the world’s largest humanitarian crisis since records began. Over 30.4 million are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance.
Stand with the IRC as we are ensuring the people affected by crisis receive the support they need to survive and rebuild.
1.What is the IRC’s biggest challenge?
A.The spread of diseases. B.Public concern on aid budget.
C.Governments’ cuts in aid. D.War-caused humanitarian crises.
2.Which period saw the largest drop in reported polio cases?
A.1980—1985. B.1985—1990. C.1990—1995. D.1995—2000.
3.What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To introduce the IRC’s basic work. B.To stress the value of humanitarian aid.
C.To show global health improvements. D.To describe Sudan’s humanitarian crisis.

Passage 1
(2026·安徽马鞍山·二模)
Textbooks don’t always get the appreciation they deserve. Often looked over quickly for assignments or used only when exams approach, many are quickly forgotten once a course ends. However, some textbooks stand out for their clearness, usefulness, and ability to make difficult ideas easier to understand. The following selections highlight textbooks that Stanford students found especially memorable — not because they were required, but because they genuinely helped learning click into place.
Grad School Essentials by Zachary Shore — Emmett Chung
Shore’s technique of reading the conclusion and introduction before strategically glancing through chapters makes what would otherwise be time-consuming research much easier.
Intro to Probability by Ellen Vitercik — Allie Skalnik
It’s everything a textbook should be: easy to understand, precise, and full of figures that actually help the concepts click into place like building blocks instead of merely crowding the page.
The Laws of Thermodynamics by Peter Atkins — Chris Procaccino
Despite its name, Thermodynamics seems to be more of an exercise in proofs than an exercise in thermodynamics. What’s great about the textbook is that it spends pages defining concepts like temperature and heat that most other textbooks ignore. What’s not-so-great about it is that it makes a concept seem more complicated than it needs to be for most general chemistry courses.
Sensation & Perception by Jeremy Wolfe — Chloe Shannon Wong
Curious about what a nerve cell in the eye is? Or why the back of the eye is organized backwards? Check out Sensation & Perception. In my opinion, this textbook was definitely challenging in some parts, but its clear list of terms and explanatory diagrams save the day.
1.Why do the four textbooks stand out?
A.They make learning easier. B.They are designed for examinations.
C.They include assignments. D.They are used throughout the course.
2.What does Procaccino say about The Laws of Thermodynamics?
A.It suits both beginners and specialists. B.It provides theoretical proofs.
C.It has both strengths and weaknesses. D.It offers alternative definitions.
3.Whose book primarily deals with the topic related to biology?
A.Zachary Shore. B.Ellen Vitercik. C.Peter Atkins. D.Jeremy Wolfe.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.D
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍斯坦福学生认为特别难忘的几本教科书,这些书并非因课程要求,而是因清晰、实用及让学习更轻松的特质而突出。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, some textbooks stand out for their clearness, usefulness, and ability to make difficult ideas easier to understand. The following selections highlight textbooks that Stanford students found especially memorable — not because they were required, but because they genuinely helped learning click into place.(然而,一些教科书因其清晰性、实用性以及将复杂概念简化理解的能力而脱颖而出。以下精选突出了斯坦福学生认为特别难忘的教科书——并非因为它们是课程要求,而是因为它们真正帮助学习变得顺畅。)”可知,这四本教科书脱颖而出是因为它们使学习更容易。故选A项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“What’s great about the textbook is that it spends pages defining concepts like temperature and heat that most other textbooks ignore. What’s not - so - great about it is that it makes a concept seem more complicated than it needs to be for most general chemistry courses. (这本书的优点在于它用大量篇幅定义了诸如温度和热量等大多数其他教科书忽略的概念。其不足之处在于,对于大多数普通化学课程来说,它把一个概念弄得比实际需要的更复杂。)可知,普罗卡奇诺认为《热力学定律》这本书既有优点,也有缺点。故选C项。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段“Curious about what a nerve cell in the eye is? Or why the back of the eye is organized backwards? Check out Sensation & Perception. (对眼睛里的神经细胞是什么感到好奇?或者为什么眼睛后部的结构是反向的?看看《感觉与知觉》这本书。)”可知,杰里米·沃尔夫(Jeremy Wolfe)的书主要涉及与生物学相关的话题。故选D项。

Passage 3

Kruger National Park Animals
Nothing will prepare you for the huge volume of wildlife that you’ll be able to see in Kruger National Park. The park is home to 114 different species of reptiles; more than 500 species of birds; and 147 mammals. Not only will you have the opportunity to see the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, and rhino), but you’ll see tons of other mammals like zebras, giraffes, hyenas, hippos, impalas, and many more.
When is the Best Time to Visit Kruger National Park?
The driest months being June, July, and August are the best time of year to visit the park, when the days are sunny and warm and the nights are cooler. Many trees and shrubs have lost their leaves, and water sources dry up, making it easier to spot game around the remaining waterholes.
Driving in Kruger National Park
What makes Kruger National Park unique from other parks is that it is accessible via self-drive. Many people who come to the park come with their own vehicle because it’s considerably more affordable than taking a guided tour. Doing a self-drive safari (游猎) also gives you more flexibility with your timing.

Four facts about humanitarian aid you need to know
Global needs rise as governments cut humanitarian aid greatly. Now is the time to address poverty, conflict and unrest. The International Rescue Committee (IRC) urges governments to rethink and invest in aid. This funding shortfall has become the IRC’s greatest obstacle. Here are four facts that show why humanitarian aid matters and why continued support is critical.
1. Aid cuts cost lives: Millions of people are at risk as some major countries reduce aid for the humanitarian crises. For people facing war, homelessness, hunger or disease, aid means access to food, clean water, medical care and shelter.
2. Diseases have been wiped out globally thanks to aid: Humanitarian aid has greatly improved global health. In the last 30 years, death rates for children under five have dropped by half. Smallpox (天花) has been rooted out, and polio (小儿麻痹症) cases have dropped by 99%.

3. Humanitarian aid accounts for only a small part of government spending: Quite a few people are concerned that it takes up a somewhat large share of the national budget-actually less than 1% in most countries. Though the top donor in total, the U. S. gives only 0.24% of its budget (vs. Norway’s 1% + ), yet these small investments save lives.
4. The largest humanitarian crisis on record is happening: After two years of civil war, Sudan is now in the world’s largest humanitarian crisis since records began. Over 30.4 million are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance.
Stand with the IRC as we are ensuring the people affected by crisis receive the support they need to survive and rebuild.
1.What is the IRC’s biggest challenge?
A.The spread of diseases. B.Public concern on aid budget.
C.Governments’ cuts in aid. D.War-caused humanitarian crises.
2.Which period saw the largest drop in reported polio cases?
A.1980—1985. B.1985—1990. C.1990—1995. D.1995—2000.
3.What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To introduce the IRC’s basic work. B.To stress the value of humanitarian aid.
C.To show global health improvements. D.To describe Sudan’s humanitarian crisis.
【答案】1.C 2.C 3.B
