Long long ago, a farmer bought a horse and a tree. The tree was near his house and later he kept the horse tied to the tree with an iron chain (链条). The horse always walked 16 the tree, pulling the heavy iron chain,which made a groove (凹槽) in the tree.The groove became deeper over the years,though for whatever reason,it didn't kill the tree. Then, many years later, all the other trees became ill and died one by one. 14thought that this tree would be next. 18 , the tree didn't die. Year after year, it grew very well. Nobody could understand why it was the sole(仅存的) one still standing in the area. Some experts came to study the tree later, checking the groove 19 by the iron chain. They believed that it was actually the 20 that saved the tree's life. They reasoned that the tree must have got so much 21 from the chain that it became immune (免疫的) to the illness. You must think 22 unbelievable the story is! It's said that what doesn't 23you will make you stronger. As the saying goes,“Life breaks us all, but afterwards, many of us are the strongest at the broken places.” Look at the grooves made by the chain.

You use lungs, fish use gills(鱼鳃) to get oxygen from water. Let's see how! ①Water flows in When a fish opens its mouth. Water rushes in and moves to its gills. ②Water filter (过滤器) The water passes through small,hard parts called gill rakers. They act like a filter, keeping out sand and mud. ③ Take in oxygen The water then flows out through the gills. Inside the gills are soft parts called filaments.They take oxygen from the water and send it into the fish's blood. Quick Q: Why can't fish breathe air? Fish don't die out of water because they' re“thirsty”! In water, their gill filaments spread out like soft feathers to take in oxygen. In air, they stick together, like wet hair, so they, can't get enough oxygen. 25. Which part of a fish helps clean the water? A. The mouth. B. The gift rakers. C. The gill filaments. D. The gill lamellae. 26. Why can't fish get enough oxygen when they are out of water? A. Their blood will stop flowing. B. Their gills spread out like feathers. C. The oxygen is thin in the air. D. Their gill filaments stick together. 27. On which of the following websites might you find the poster? A.www.nature.com/ plant B.www.science.com/ breathing C.www.environment.com/ water-pollution D.www.fishermen.net/ food B You might see headlines of“raising lobster”recently online, but the“lobster” is not the kind you’ d find on the dining table. It's a new AI agent called OpenClaw. Using a red lobster as its symbol, it was developed by Austrian programmer Peter Steinberger.In China, many people have set up this AI on their computers, which they jokingly call“raising lobster”. We' ve already had AI tools like ChatGPT, and DeepSeek. They can advise us on what to do, but they can't reach into the real world to do it for us. Also, they only“talk” when asked. OpenClaw,on the other hand,“actually does things”. For example, it can send emails and buy plane tickets. OpenClaw also has a long“memory”. Over time, it learns what you like and follows your schedule(日程). You can wake up in the morning to a message about your top three tasks without even having to ask the AI first. This proactiveness (主动性) is made possible by something called a“heartbeat”,according to Claire Vo, a US scientist. She explained that a heartbeat is a timer that goes off regularly (定时). With each“heartbeat”,the AI checks what comes next. However, OpenClaw collects a lot of personal information from users. In February,researchers found that some important information from open law had been put online without telling the users. Hackers(黑客) could use this to control users’ computers. The Chinese government has given its first-ever warnings about this kind of AI, telling people to be careful while using it. 28. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. What“raising lobster” is. B. Who developed OpenClaw. C. Why OpenClaw is special. D. How OpenClaw works. 29. How is OpenClaw different from other AI tools? A. It owns a real heart. B. It helps its users with real tasks. C. It has a shorter memory. D. It provides better advice for people. 30. Why has the government warned people to be careful with OpenClaw? A. People can be controlled by OpenClaw. B. Users have spent too much money on it. C. It gives out users' private information. D. Setting up OpenClaw on computers is very difficult. C 1 For more than 30 years, Fang Beisong, an expert at repairing old objects at Jingzhou Museum, has worked to make ancient words on bamboo and wooden pieces readable again.These pieces are called jiandu. ② One special moment came in 2015. While cleaning a bamboo piece from the Warring States Period, he found the words“hold your hand and grow old with you”,a line from The Book of Songs.“I felt the light and warmth of our history and culture,” Fang recalled. ③After finishing his studies in chemistry in 1988, Fang began working at the museum,using science for his love of history. He focuses on jiandu —— things people wrote on before paper was used. In 2002, he faced a huge task — over 92,000 pieces from the Qin Dynasty were found in Hunan. He stayed in Changsha for nine years, working 12 hours a day to sort out and protect them. ④ Preserving(保存) jiandu is extremely difficult. They are made of natural materials and break down easily. Once unearthed, they quickly turn black in the air, making the writing unreadable. Fang's repair work included over 20 steps, with decoloring and dewatering being the most important.Decoloring brings back the original(原来的) color and keeps the words clear, while dewatering helps them leave the wet condition and stay steady tor keeping. After years of trying, he found a good two-step way and won a national technology prize in 2019. ⑤ Each case is different. In 2020,his team worked on Han Dynasty bamboo pieces from a robbed tomb in Dingzhou. The pieces broke easily. They tried over 70 times to keep them together. Even though the writing was almost impossible to see, a special camera using infrared (红外线的) light showed the words clearly. ⑥ So far, Fang and his team have fixed over 100,000 pieces.“For things like these,once they are dug up, there's only a short time to save them. I cannot stop —— the faster I work, the more of our history I can save,” said Fang. 31. What do we know about Fang's work in Changsha after 2002? A. He got a national award right after. B. He solved all preservation issues there. C. He worked long hours to preserve jiandu. D. He went there to study Qin Dynasty history. 32. What does the underlined word“decoloring” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Washing the surface to remove dirt. B. Changing the color of jiandu. C. Preventing jiandu from turning black. D. Bringing back the true color. 33. What is the structure of this article? A.①②/③④/⑤⑥ B.①②③/④⑤/⑥ C.①/②③/④⑤⑥ D.①/②③/④⑤/⑥ D Narrator: Gillian's uncle leaves him one thousand dollars in the will (遗嘱, while his uncle's poor caretaker,Miss Havden, gets just ten dollars. Mr. Tolman is a lawyer. According to the will, after spending the money, Gillian must tell Mr. Tolman in writing how he spent it. How should Gillian spend his money? He asks several friends, but doesn't find the answer.Finally, he decides to return to his uncle's house. Scene 1 In the living room, Miss Hayden is writing letters. She looks up when Gillian comes in. Gillian: I have to tell you there was a mistake in the will: My dear old uncle left you a thousand dollars, not ten. Miss Hayden: What? Are you serious?

Gillian writes a short note, and reads it.) Gillian:“Paid to the best woman in the world. I hope she will be happy forever.” Scene 2 Mr. Tolman is sitting behind his desk when Gillian comes into his office. Gillian puts the note on the desk. Tolman: Mr. Gillian, in fact, there was something else in your uncle's will. I was told I couldn't see it until you told me in writing how you spent the money. Gillian: Please do. Tolman: Your uncle wrote that you get another fifty thousand dollars if you have used the money to do good for others. But if you have spent it carelessly or given it away to the wrong people... Gillian:(Laughing) As I usually do! Tolman: Then the fifty thousand dollars must be paid to Miss Hayden. Now, I will read your note and find out... Gillian quickly takes the note from the desk, then tears (撕碎) it into pieces and puts it in his pocket. Gillian:(Smiling) There's no need to read it.

Dogs like to stay with humans, while wolves don't. However, there is an unusual wolf in the Kekexili Nature Reserve in Qinghai. One summer day, a traveller first met the animal when driving through Kekexili. At that time, the wolf looked thin and weak. She took pity on it and offered it some food. Then she shared the video online. With the spread of the video, a great number of visitors came to feed the wolf tasty food, such as pies and chicken. Gradually, the wild animal learned to beg for a meal from passing vehicles by wagging(摇摆) its tail and rolling on the ground. In the latest video, the wolf has changed greatly in its appearance and behavior. It has put on lots of weight and acts like a dog. And more wolves are behaving like the wolf. Some netizens(网友) joked that it showed how a wolf changed into a dog. However,many people are worried that feeding wolves may bring many bad results to humans and wolves. On the one hand, wolves are dangerous and may attack humans. Wild animals,especially injured(受伤的) ones, may carry viruses.So humans need to keep a safe distance from them. On the other hand, the feeding behavior is against the law of nature, which easily makes the wolves depend on humans. Also, too many visitors are harmful to their living areas. In conclusion, though it's important to protect wolves, humans shouldn't intervene (干涉) too much. 58. Where is the unusual wolf? 59. What did visitors do when they met the wolf? 60. What does the wolf act like in the latest video? 61. Why are many people worried about the feeding behavior? 62. How should you deal with an injured animal if you find one in the wild? 七、书面表达(共20分) 回望初中三年，无数课堂活动如繁星般闪耀。或是一场好书推荐会，或是一幕角色扮演，或是一次 DIY 创作实践，又或是一场精彩纷呈的英语演讲比赛、一次妙趣横生的科学小实验、一幕扣人心弦的历史短剧……随着毕业季脚步渐近，学校公众平台的英语角栏目发起“A Classroom Activity I’ ll Never Forget”主题征文活动,诚邀同学们用英文写下那场亲身经历、收获满满的课堂活动。 提示: 1.
