During my winter vacation, I finally had the chance to visit this magical country. My first stop was the famous Blue Lagoon. Bathing in the warm, milky-blue water while the air temperature was below freezing was an unforgettable experience. The water is rich in minerals, which are said to be good for the skin. The next day, I went on a tour to see the Northern Lights. The guide told us that the lights are caused by solar winds meeting the Earth's atmosphere. We waited for hours in the cold darkness. Just as I was about to give up, a faint green light appeared in the sky. It grew brighter and began to dance across the horizon. Everyone around me gasped (倒吸一口气) in wonder. It felt like watching a slow, silent firework show. However, the trip also had its challenges. The weather in Iceland changes very quickly. In the morning, the sun was shining, but by noon, a snowstorm hit the area where we were driving. Our bus had to stop on the road for two hours until it was safe to continue. This experience taught me to always respect nature. I learned that in Iceland, you should always check the road and weather conditions before you go anywhere. Despite the difficulties, I fell in love with Iceland. It is a place of extremes and surprises. The silence of the snowy fields and the power of the natural forces left a deep impression on me. I returned home with hundreds of photos and a heart full of respect for our planet. 22. What is the Blue Lagoon? A. A museum about volcanic rocks. B. A hot spring (温泉) with blue water. C.

Many young people now watch lectures, dramas, and even movie reviews at 1.5x or 2x speed. This habit is called “speed listening.” ____27____ saves time, but some experts worry that we are losing our ability to think deeply. Why do people do this? The main reason is the huge amount of information online. There are simply too many videos and podcasts to watch at normal speed. By speeding up, people can take in ____28____ content in a shorter time. A one-hour podcast becomes only 30 minutes. This makes people feel more productive. ____29____, there is a cost. When we listen to something at double speed, our brain has to work harder to process the words. We can understand the basic information, but we often miss the speaker's emotions, humor, or the beauty of the language. Over time, this might train our brains to ____30____ only for facts, not for feelings or art. Some educators suggest a balanced way. For simple news or review lessons, speed listening is fine. But for a beautiful poem, a sad story, or a complex scientific theory, it's better to listen at ____31____ speed. “Good things take time.

It is a free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit. This makes it very different from traditional encyclopedias like Encyclopedia Britannica. Wikipedia was launched in 2001, and today it has millions of articles in hundreds of languages. The idea behind Wikipedia is collaborative (协作的) knowledge. If you know something about a topic, you can click “edit” and add your information. Other volunteers around the world check these changes for mistakes. This system is called “wiki”. The most famous example is Wikipedia. However, because anyone can edit it, Wikipedia is not always perfect. Sometimes people add false information for fun, or by accident. For this reason, many teachers do not allow students to cite (引用) Wikipedia as a source for research papers. They say you should use Wikipedia as a starting point to find other reliable sources listed at the bottom of each article. Despite this problem, Wikipedia has become incredibly important. It is free, and it contains knowledge that is often more up-to-date than printed encyclopedias. When a big event happens, like an earthquake or a sports victory, Wikipedia pages are updated within hours. Its founder, Jimmy Wales, once said, “Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That’s what we are doing.” 33.

What makes Wikipedia different from traditional encyclopedias? _______________________________________________________________________________ 35.

It is a small, robotic fish that swims in rivers and oceans. Its mouth can absorb plastic waste and turn it into oxygen bubbles. I want to invent it because I once saw a sad video of a sea turtle eating a plastic bag. The pollution breaks my heart. This robotic fish would clean the water silently without harming any living creature. It could bring clean water back to marine animals. Imagine rivers becoming clear again! That is the change I dream of. Thank you. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
