The Curious Case of the Tree That Owns Itself
In the city of Athens, Georgia, there exists a rather interesting local landmark — a large white oak that is almost universally stated to own itself. Because of this, it is considered one of the most famous trees in the world. So how did this tree come to own itself and the land around it?
Sometime in the 19th century a Georgian called Colonel William Jackson reportedly took a liking to the said tree and endeavored to protect it from any danger. As to 1 he loved it so, the earliest documented account of this story is an article in the Athens Weekly Banner published on August 12, 1890, which states, “Col. Jackson had watched the tree grow from his childhood, and grew to love it almost 2 he would a human. Its luxuriant leaves and sturdy limbs had often protected him from the heavy rains, and out of its highest branches he had many a time gotten the eggs of the 3 (feather) singers. He watched its growth, and when reaching a ripe old age he saw the tree standing in its magnificent proportions, he was pained to think that after his death it would fall into the hands of those who 4 destroy it.”
Towards this end, Jackson 5 (transfer) by means of a deed the ownership of the tree and a little land around it to the tree itself. The deed 6 (read) , “W. H. Jackson for and in consideration of the great affection which he bears the said tree, and his great desire 7 (see) it protected has conveyed unto the said oak tree entire possession of itself and of all land within eight feet of it on all sides.”
In time, the tree came to be 8 of a tourist attraction, known as The Tree That Owns Itself. However, in the early 20th century, the tree started showing signs of its slow death, 9 little that could be done about it. Father Time (时光老人) comes for us all eventually, even our often long lived, tall and leafy fellow custodians (看管者) of Earth. Finally, on October 9, 1942, the over-30-meter-tall and 200-to-400-year-old tree fell; rumor has it that this was due to a severe windstorm or to the fact that it had previously died and its roots had rotted.
About four years later, members of the Junior Ladies Garden Club who had tended to the tree before its unfortunate death tracked down a small tree grown from a nut taken from the original tree. And so it was that on October 9, 1946, under the direction of Professor Roy Bowden of the College of Agriculture at the University of Georgia, this little tree was transplanted to the location 10 its ancestor stood. This new tree became known as The Son of the Tree That Owns Itself and it was assumed that, as the original tree’s heir, it naturally inherited the land it stood on.

India is a country with lots of languages. Dozens of different regional languages are spoken in India, 11 share many characteristics such as grammatical structure and vocabulary. Apart from these languages, Hindi, the national, official, and main link language, 12 (use) mostly widely for communication in India. The homeland of Hindi is mainly in the north, but it is spoken and widely understood in all urban centers of India. In the southern states of India, Hindi is not so popularly used. Therefore, English, an associate official language in this country, remains a 13 (share) language to a great degree.
Since the early 1600s, the English language 14 (hold) a position on the Indian subcontinent. In India, English serves two purposes. First, it provides a linguistic (语言学的) tool for the administrative link of the country, 15 (cause) people who speak different languages to become united. Secondly, it serves as a language of 16 (wide) communication compared with other languages, including a large variety of different people covering a vast area.
The importance of the ability to speak or write English has recently increased significantly because English has become the established standard. Learning English language has become popular 17 business, commerce and cultural reasons and especially for Internet communications throughout the world. The phenomenon that English has been used by many information and technology industries and recognized as being standard has stimulated a huge expansion of Internet-related activity.
English has special national status in India. One 18 see a Hindi-speaking teacher giving their students instructions during an educational tour about where 19 (meet) and when their bus would leave, all in English. Men and women who cannot comprehend and interpret instructions in English, 20 educated, are sometimes unemployable. There would appear to be no disagreement in the community about the importance of English language skills.

Tips on Identifying Fake News Online
With so much fake news online, it can sometimes be hard to figure out the truth. Concern about the phenomenon led to the announcement made by some tech companies 21 they’ll crack down on fake news sites.
Fake news is a common occurrence — you see it on your social media feeds, and even on 22 (forward) messages on your phone’s group chat. There’s always one person in your group who likes to send unconfirmed news from 23 can only be described as doubtful origins.
It was even named 2017’s word of the year by dictionary publisher, Collins, 24 describes fake news as “false, often sensational, information spread under the guise of news reporting”.
Here’s our advice on how to spot a fake.
First, check the website and quality of the articles. Look at the sources of the story and read other articles on the site — are they well written with proper citations or are they full of grammatical errors? You should also make sure that you’re on a legal news site. Some fake sites use addresses and even logos that are similar to 25 of real news organizations. For example, abcnews.go.com is real, while abcnews.com.co is not.
Second, is it the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Sometimes a fake news story 26 have a sliver of truth to it, but most of the facts and figures are plotted from imagination. 27 (make) sure, search for the same story on several authoritative websites to ensure nothing has been misrepresented.
Third, make sure it’s not satire (讽刺). 28 the story is on a satirical website, you should be aware that the intention is humour and satire, and not misled.
Being able to detect fake news is a crucial part of digital literacy and is an important aspect of life in the digital age. However, not all of the misinformation being passed along online is completely fictional, though some of it is. Snopes.com 29 (expose) false viral claims since the mid-1990s, whether that’s fabricated (编造的) messages, distortions containing bits of truth 30 everything in between. Founder David Mikkelson warned in a Nov. 17 article not to sort everything into the “fake news” category. In one word, stay alert and objective.

The Fascinating Culture of the Miao People
The Miao ethnicity of China has a long history, rich culture, and an ancient folk religion. 31 (decorate) with beautiful traditional clothes, they live in uniquely designed architecture. Throughout history, the Miao people were constantly migrating, always on the move. In more modern times, part of the Miao people gradually settled down in southeast Asian countries. Today, the Miao people in China 32 (concentrate) in eight provinces, autonomous regions, and cities in southwest and south-central China, 33 Guizhou Province has the largest population.
The Miao people have lived the lush vegetation of the mountains and river for generations. The Miaoling Mountains located in Guizhou Province are the watershed (分水岭) between the Pearl River and the Yangtze River. Kaili City, the capital of Qiandongnan, is known as the Pearl of Miaoling Mountains. Just 10 kilometers from the city center, the 34 (wind) crystal-clear Bala River runs through the valley by the city. On the cliffs of the peaks on either side of the river 35 (sit) a cluster of Miao villages, scattered like pearls.
The people who live in the ancient villages are sincere, kind, hospitable, and honest. 36 a tourist ever get lost, there were no need to worry. All that needs to do is just call out in a loud voice outside any courtyard, “Is anyone home? I’m lost.” A wooden window would open instantly and an elderly person would stick the head out, describing 37 the tourist should head in simple, basic Putonghua.
The fantastically colored rice terraces (梯田) can be seen at the edge of the village path. The ripe rice is bent over 38 they were expressing gratefulness to the earth for giving it life. After the harvest is done, rice is neatly tied-up and arranged, waiting 39 (handle) better. Self-sufficiency in living off the land is a way of life that Miao families have handed down to their descendants for generations, and today the Miao people still maintain their traditional way of life and work 40 the gazing crowds of tourists who pass through their villages.

Art Builds Understanding
At the just completed Designing for Empathy Summit, social scientists and museum leaders gathered to discuss how museums can build empathy and contribute to developing understanding and meaning-making.
Despite the long history of scholarship on experiences of art, researchers have yet to capture and understand 41 (meaningful) aspects of such experiences, including the thoughts and insights gained when we visit a museum, the sense of encounter after seeing a meaningful work of art, or the changed thinking after experiences with art. These powerful encounters 42 be inspiring, uplifting, and contribute to well-being and flourishing.
The theory of aesthetic cognitivism describes the value of art through its role in facilitating a better understanding of 43 , others, and the world. The question is how that happens–what are the attributes of meaningful experiences of art?
44 45 the mirror model of art developed by Pablo P. L. Tinio, aesthetic reception corresponds to artistic creation in a mirror-reversed fashion. Artists aim to express ideas and messages about the human condition or the world at large. To do so, they explore key ideas and continually expand, adapt, and fine-tune them as they develop the work, resulting in the build-up of layers of materials — 46 initial studies and sketches to the final, 47 (refine) piece.
A viewer’s initial interaction with an artwork starts 48 the artist has left off. Their interaction first involves processing surface features, such as color, texture, and the 49 (finish) touches applied by the artist during the final stages of the creative process. After spending more time with the work, the viewer begins to gain insight and access the ideas of the artist.
Correspondence in feeling and thinking suggests a transfer — between creator and viewer — of ideas, concepts, and emotions contained in the works of art. Art has the potential 50 (communicate) across space and time and create connections and insights 51 otherwise would not happen. What it takes for this to happen is active engagement with art in contexts that facilitate this engagement, especially museums.

Double-decker Buses
A double-decker bus is a bus that has two storeys or decks. Double-decker buses are used for mass transport all over the world. The most iconic example is the red London bus.
Early double-deckers put the driver in a separate cab(驾驶舱). Passengers entered the bus through an open platform at the back door, 52 a bus conductor would collect fares. The back open platform, popular with passengers, was abandoned for safety reasons, as there was a risk of passengers falling when 52 (run) onto the bus. Modern double-deckers have a main entrance door at the front and the driver takes fares. 53 this can cut down the number of bus workers aboard, it slows the boarding process. Double-deckers in London
Double-decker buses are in common use throughout the United Kingdom, especially in London. Double-deckers are primarily for commuter transport but some open-top models 54 (intend) for sightseeing. Many tourists 55 have the best view of London from the top of a double-decker.
The majority of double-decker buses in the UK are between 9.5 metres and 11.1 metres 56 length, and the latter has been more common since the mid-1990s.
In 1941, Miss Phyllis Thompson became the first woman 57 (drive) a double-decker vehicle in the United Kingdom. She drove for the bus company Messrs. 58 being licensed hit the headline throughout the whole country as driving had long been men’s job.Double-deckers in Shanghai
In Shanghai, several newly designed No. 911 double-decker buses were put into operation on Huaihai Road in 2018. Older open-top double-decker buses were retired in 2017 after serving the city for several years. 59 (compare) with the older model, the new buses are safer and provide 60 (comfortable) riding experiences for passengers. Not only can passengers take No. 911 double-deckers to commute, but also they can have a pleasant tour of the most booming area in the city.

A New Way to Learn Languages
Nowadays, the Internet is changing the way people learn languages. There is still no way to avoid the hard work through vocabulary lists and grammar rules, but since the birth of the Internet, books, tapes and even CDs 61 (replace) by email, video chat and social networks.
Livemocha, a Seattle-based company, has created a website helping people learn more than 38 languages by exchanging messages over the Internet and then 62 (correct) each other’s messages. The lessons, 63 form they are in, are delivered online.
The CEO of Livemocha says the website’s advantage is the context 64 you may practice speaking with a real person. “The great irony is that 65 you have learned a foreign language in the classroom for years, you are not confident 66 (go) into a restaurant, striking up a conversation,” he said. The casual connections with real people throughout the world are not just fun and surprising but reveal more about 67 the language is really used.
Livemocha is now experimenting with many ways that resemble (像) the games 68 (find) on other social websites to motivate people. Besides, each person can set up a profile that includes a short self-description and what language he or she would like to learn. Therefore, if you want to learn one language, you will easily find many people fluent in this language. And it becomes 69 (challenging) to find a study partner. An email or two is all it takes.
There are more and more companies like Livemocha offering online language learning to students throughout the world. 70 merely helping people practice different languages, they also enable people to share interests and make new friends

The Transformative Power of Solo Travel
Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 71 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges.
Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 72 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, growing up in an increasingly digital world, 73 (pursue) authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country with no one 74 (rely) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 75 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence.
However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend 76 (research) local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women traveling alone are expected to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure 77 (respect) cultural norms may lead to serious consequences.
Ultimately, those 78 have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 79 profound impact that no classroom education can match. As travel writer Pico Lyer once remarked, “We travel initially to lose ourselves; we travel next to find ourselves.” Perhaps this explains 80 more young people are choosing to embark on journeys alone, seeking not just destinations, but transformations.
Passage 9
(2026 上海七宝中学・高一下・期末)
Napping during the day is an ancient custom that is practiced worldwide. While some people view napping as a luxurious indulgence, 81 see it as a way to maintain alertness and well-being. But napping can come with drawbacks 82 benefits.
As an orofacial pain specialist, I have extensive education in sleep medicine and 83 sleep impacts wellness, due mostly to the relationship between sleep and painful conditions such as headaches and facial pain. My training involved all aspects of sleep, especially sleep breathing disorders, insomnia and sleep-related movement disorders. As such, I’m aware of 84 complex nature of napping, and why a short nap – that is, a nap during the daytime that lasts from 20 to 30 minutes – may be beneficial in myriad ways.
Research shows that there are many benefits to napping. Short naps can boost mental functioning and memory, and improve alertness, attention and reaction time. Besides, short naps 85 (link) to increased productivity and creativity. Because napping seems to improve creative thinking, some companies have attempted to harness (利用) this 86 introducing napping rooms into the workplace. What’s more, it appears that the brain uses nap time to process information 87 (gather) throughout the day, which appears to enhance problem-solving abilities. One small study revealed that people who took short naps were 88 (frustrated) and impulsive, which resulted in better focus and efficiency when performing work-related tasks. Napping may even lead to an 89 (improve) ability to learn new motor skills, such as a golf swing or the playing of a musical instrument. This is because these memories or skills become consolidated in the brain during sleep, 90 at night or while napping.
While usually, the longer the nap, the more sleep inertia there is to overcome. This 91 impair (损害) cognitive function from several minutes up to half an hour. In many cases, these effects can be minimized by consuming caffeine directly after the nap.
But it is important to note that caffeine is not a substitute for sleep. Caffeine acts to temporarily block the action of a chemical known as adenosine (腺苷), a sleep-promoting agent that builds up during waking hours. If you are habitually dependent on caffeine consumption to keep you awake and alert, it may suggest that there is an underlying sleep disorder such as insomnia or sleep apnea, 92 a person temporarily stops breathing during sleep.

Developing Competent (合格的) Teaching
Nations that have greatly improved their students’ achievement, such as Finland, Korea, Singapore, and others, attribute much of their success to their focused investments in teacher preparation and development.
93 (Create) a system that can routinely hire and prepare teachers effectively and can support successful teaching is the arena (竞技场) in which the United States 94 (fall) behind the most. Although there are some great teachers in every community, the landscape of the supports for quality teaching looks like Swiss cheese. In some states, the holes are smaller, and in others they are bigger. But in no case is there a fully 95 (develop) system of instructional support even remotely comparable to 96 in high-achieving nations. And of course, as we have seen, the system is weakest in communities 97 students’ needs are greatest.
Some have argued that the answer to weak teaching in the United States is to eliminate “barriers” to teaching, such as teacher education and certification requirements, allow anyone who wants to teach into the classroom, and fire those who prove not to be effective. Although the interest in teaching effectiveness is important, this approach does not offer strategy 98 (ensure) that teachers will have opportunities to gain the knowledge and skills they need in order to be effective, or that all schools will have the resources to attract and hire the best teachers. Nor does it protect the students in low-income schools, who will be the victims of unprepared and inexperienced teachers in the years until these teachers have demonstrated their incapability and left the field.
A regulation 99 (focus) on easy access and easy firing ignores the question of how to develop widespread teaching skills and ensure a strong supply of highly able teachers for schools. 100 such supply, principals will be unable to hire strong teachers even if they are free to hire whomever they are pleased with, and, evidence shows that schools are unlikely to fire weak teachers, 101 they feel they won’t be able to replace them. Even if they do, there is little guarantee that the quality of teaching 102 (improve). Although there are good reasons to argue for stronger evaluation practices for removing incapable teachers and for recognizing excellent ones, a theory that the major problems with teaching can be solved by carrots and sticks alone leaves the development of teaching abilities to chance.

Facing Uncertainty in the Future
The future is an unknown that many of us fear. Throughout childhood, many of us are innocent, sheltered by the safety of home. We are fed ideals and taught principles by caretakers — parents, teachers, adults who shape our early beliefs. We are eighteen and pushed into adulthood 103 we know it, expected to find our way in a world we don’t yet understand.
Higher education often feels like the final threshold before full adulthood — a stormy space of doubt. Questions arise: What path should I take? Will I find happiness? These uncertainties weigh heavily, leaving one mentally exhausted and weakening confidence as the “real world” approaches. Yet, within this fear lies a hidden beauty: the realization that life isn’t as fixed as we’re taught. We assume that our early choices lock us in, and 104 taking a different route only results in failure. But the truth is, we hold 105 (much) power over our lives than we think. Still, many give up that power, softening their ambitions 106 (fit) expectations.
There’s much to say for consistency, but standing still limits potential for growth. Holding tightly to a set route risks 107 (waste) not just days, but an entire lifetime that 108 have been extraordinary. I know this fear well. 109 (Raise) to believe success meant perfect grades, a degree from a top university, and a high-paying job, I never questioned the path — until high school, 110 doubts slowly entered my mind. What if I wanted something else? The pressure shrank my world into a small, dark tunnel that I felt I had no choice but to follow.
But security doesn’t guarantee happiness. By university, I felt trapped, convinced I’d failed for not meeting expectations. Then, I took a leap: I switched my major 111 East Asian Studies, a field dismissed as impractical. Initially, the decision seemed illogical, contrary to 112 I was taught to believe in. Yet, instead of regret, I found relief. For the first time, I loved learning, freed from pressures I put on myself. The “right” path isn’t the same for everyone — it’s the one that awakens passion, not fear.

The mindbending ‘cyberpunk city’ in China that exists on so many levels
When visiting Chongqing for the first time last November, Joshua Guvi was worried that the city he’d seen on social media couldn’t possibly be as cool in real life.
Located in a mountainous area of southwestern China, this city is known for 113 complex, multilayered layout (布局), causing some 114 (refer) to it as China’s “8D city.” Including its rural outer regions, the whole area is the size of Austria. 115 the city’s unique geography and rapid growth, Chongqing has had nowhere to go but up, to the point 116 one building even has a train running through the middle of it.
For tourists — and even some locals — getting lost in winding, eye-popping Chongqing is part of the fun. “It actually shot a lot over my expectations,” says Guvi, a travel content creator from Canada.
These moments 117 (sew) together into a video on Guvi’s YouTube channel. He wrote, “Chongqing feels like peering into the future. This city has its own pulse.” Guvi began his trip in Shanghai, 118 he wanted to experience a more authentically Chinese city.
“I had heard some people talk about Chongqing in Shanghai… Shanghai is a(n) 119 (amaze) city, but I was curious to see more of the actual China, versus kind of the Shanghai where you can still get by on English.”
He isn’t the only one who has been bypassing Beijing, Xi’an and other cities along the established Chinese tourist route in favor of Chongqing. Tourism in Chongqing has been skyrocketing 120 the country reopened post-pandemic.
According to data 121 (release) by the Chongqing government, the city welcomed about 1.3 million inbound tourists in 2024, representing a year-on-year increase of 184%. In the first two months of 2025, the number of foreign nationals entering through the city’s ports increased by 60%. In fact, American tourists have seen 122 noticeable increase. That’s especially impressive considering there that the sole direct flight from the US to Chongqing is a once-a-week affair on Hainan Airlines. We have to say the outlook for inbound tourism is very promising.

Outdoor safety and preparations
No matter what your reason for being outdoors is, you need to have an understanding of outdoor first aid and the challenges it can pose. 123 indoor environments, outdoor settings pose unique challenges that require a different approach to emergency care.
If an emergency does happen, it is important to know the route you are taking. So primary is this 124 if you get separated from the group, you will be able to find your way back to them by following the same path. This knowledge, 125 is useful in case of an accident, can help emergency services learn your location. You can use your awareness of the route 126 (provide) that information for them or give a rough estimate.
Knowing the communication plan is essential. If you are following a route that takes you out of normal phone signal range, you 127 (run) the risk of losing contact with others. By ensuring you have a way of communicating not only with your fellow explorers but also with emergency services, and 128 (track) the news for weather updates, you will be able to minimise the safety risks of exploring off the beaten track and be able to prepare should you need to withdraw or take shelter.
Having an appointed first aider for each group will save time and help to keep everyone safe. However, if the group were to split up, having multiple first aiders would mean that there wouldn’t be a delay in providing treatment if 129 (need).
While a primary first aider is important, it’s best to make sure that everyone is aware of 130 to do in an emergency. Practising different scenarios (场景) with the group ensures that not only 131 everyone know what to expect and how to act, but it also makes it 132 (likely) that they will remember how to respond and not panic if the situation does come to pass.

Older Americans in Modern Society
Last year’s US Census (人口普查) showed that the average age of American citizens is rising. 133 1970 when the last American census was completed, the birth rate has continued to fall sharply in the United States, and the number of Americans over age 65 134 (rise) by 28%. Experts believe continued medical progress will permit Americans in growing numbers 135 (live) longer in the years ahead and 136 the trend of population aging in the United States will keep going. This means as a group, older citizens will play 137 increasingly important part in American life.
The influence of many of these older Americans already can be seen. Today, those over 65 are healthier, 138 (well-educated) and more active than at any other time in American history. And they are rapidly changing traditional beliefs 139 to be old is to be sick, or weak, or helpless. Today men in 140 seventies are competing in long distance running races. Motion picture films now have leading parts for actors and actresses in their eighties.
Today’s older Americans are also spending large amounts of money on everything from study to long-distance travel. 141 is obvious is that more and more businesses now recognize their economic importance. Travel service, restaurants, stores and transportation systems are offering 142 (reduce) prices for those over 65. Special sports equipment and beauty products are being designed for older citizens.

Population Forecasts: UN vs IHME on Fertility and Decline
Fertility (生育能力) is falling, people are aging, and by the end of the century humans 143 (decrease) in number on almost every continent, according to a recent study 144 (publish) in the journal Lancet. Far from an overpopulation crisis, demographers (人口学家) are asking where the next generations of young people will come from.
The study from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) projects the number of people on the planet will peak just four decades from now, at 9.7 billion, 145 falling to 8.8 billion by the end of the century.
In 80 years, countries like Spain and Japan would halve in size. China would shrink by almost as much, leaving India and Nigeria as the world’s 146 (populated) countries. Only in 12 countries, including Somalia and South Sudan, would there be enough babies to keep populations stable. The rest would be aging. And if the world meets targets for universal education — the positive driving force behind falling fertility — there would be 1.5 billion people fewer in 2100 than there are today.
Women are having fewer children globally because more girls go to school and more women know about how to keep away from getting pregnant. 147 demographers disagree on how far — and how fast — fertility will continue to fall.
While the IHME projects the world’s population will start shrinking by 2064, the United Nations expects it to continue growing throughout the century. The difference in population 148 the two estimates is about 2 billion people by 2100 — and the uncertainties are so great that both research groups accept the possibility of the opposite trend.
One reason for the difference is that the UN, unlike the IHME, predicts that fertility rates will rebound (反弹) as countries grow richer.
Surveys show that women across Europe and North America have fewer children than they would like 149 barriers like expensive childcare, job pressures and men not taking on a fair share of housework. By reducing the size of some of these obstacles, countries like Germany have seen their fertility rate rise
“The UN projections embody (体现) an optimism 150 the long history of human progress will continue,” said Sara Hertog, a demographer at the UN, 151 (add) that changing fertility rates are, in themselves, neither good news nor bad news. “I hope the level of fertility reflects the number of children people want to have, 152 is a sign of advancement to some extent.”

Thompson was born in the United States in 1906. During World War II, he was sent to Thailand, 153 he worked with a united states intelligence agency. It was this first taste of life in the Far East 154 changed Thompson’s life. when the war ended, he decided to leave the army and move to Thailand permanently. At first, Thompson 155 (plan) to renovate a famous hotel in Bangkok, the oriental Hotel, to attract tourists. That project eventually fell through but by that time Thompson had already hit upon another business scheme that would eventually make him a millionaire.
While travelling around Thailand, Thompson came across 156 he considered exquisite samples of handwoven Thai silk. At that time, 157 (weave) silk by hand was almost an extinct art in Thailand. Very few people were interested in doing it, and even those weavers still at work only did it on the side, 158 an addition to their regular income from other work. However, Thompson was intrigued by the silk he found and began seeking out weavers and their samples.
Eventually, his search led Thompson to Ban Krua, a very poor district in Bangkok alongside one of the canals running through the city. In Ban Krua, Thompson found a whole community of weaver living very close to each other. 159 Thailand is, by and large, a Buddhist country, these weavers were Muslim—a fact that helps explain why they all stayed together within their tight community to support one another. Thompson was so impressed with the material being woven in this village that he took samples 160 (show) fashion magazines in New York. These magazine writers were amazed at the quality of this silk and wanted more.
Thompson returned to Ban Krua with orders for more silk. At that time, most of the weavers in Ban Krua supported 161 through other jobs, but Thompson eventually persuaded them to go back into production to supply his new company, the Thai silk Company Ltd, 162 (found) in 1948. This company soon made Thompson and a few of the Ban Krua weavers very wealthy.

A new study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Early Years, finds, for three to nine-year-olds, the format of number-based board games helps to improve counting, addition, and the ability to recognize 163 a number is higher or lower than another.
The researchers say children benefit from programs 164 they play board games a few times a week supervised by a teacher or another trained adult.
“Board games enhance mathematical abilities for young children, and they can easily be adapted to include learning objectives related to mathematical skills or other domains,” says lead author Dr. Jaime Balladares, one of the 165 (well-known) child psychologists from Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, in Santiago, Chile.
The researchers set out to investigate the scale of the effects 166 physical board games in promoting learning in young children. They based their findings on a review of 19 studies published from 2000 onwards 167 (involve) children aged from three to nine years. All except one study focused on the relationship between board games and mathematical skills.
All children participating in the studies received special board game sessions which took place on average twice a week for 20 minutes during 168 18-month period. Teachers, therapists, or parents were among the adults 169 led these sessions.
In some of the 19 studies, children were grouped into either the number board game or to a board game that did not focus on numeracy skills. In 170 , all children participated in number board games but were allocated different types e.g. Dominoes.
All children were assessed on their math performance before and after the intervention sessions which were designed 171 (encourage) skills such as counting out loud.
The results showed that math skills improved significantly 172 these children took part in the intervention sessions.

Passage 1
(2026 上海洋泾中学・高一下・4 月监测)
The Curious Case of the Tree That Owns Itself
In the city of Athens, Georgia, there exists a rather interesting local landmark — a large white oak that is almost universally stated to own itself. Because of this, it is considered one of the most famous trees in the world. So how did this tree come to own itself and the land around it?
Sometime in the 19th century a Georgian called Colonel William Jackson reportedly took a liking to the said tree and endeavored to protect it from any danger. As to 1 he loved it so, the earliest documented account of this story is an article in the Athens Weekly Banner published on August 12, 1890, which states, “Col. Jackson had watched the tree grow from his childhood, and grew to love it almost 2 he would a human. Its luxuriant leaves and sturdy limbs had often protected him from the heavy rains, and out of its highest branches he had many a time gotten the eggs of the 3 (feather) singers. He watched its growth, and when reaching a ripe old age he saw the tree standing in its magnificent proportions, he was pained to think that after his death it would fall into the hands of those who 4 destroy it.”
Towards this end, Jackson 5 (transfer) by means of a deed the ownership of the tree and a little land around it to the tree itself. The deed 6 (read) , “W. H. Jackson for and in consideration of the great affection which he bears the said tree, and his great desire 7 (see) it protected has conveyed unto the said oak tree entire possession of itself and of all land within eight feet of it on all sides.”
In time, the tree came to be 8 of a tourist attraction, known as The Tree That Owns Itself. However, in the early 20th century, the tree started showing signs of its slow death, 9 little that could be done about it. Father Time (时光老人) comes for us all eventually, even our often long lived, tall and leafy fellow custodians (看管者) of Earth. Finally, on October 9, 1942, the over-30-meter-tall and 200-to-400-year-old tree fell; rumor has it that this was due to a severe windstorm or to the fact that it had previously died and its roots had rotted.
About four years later, members of the Junior Ladies Garden Club who had tended to the tree before its unfortunate death tracked down a small tree grown from a nut taken from the original tree. And so it was that on October 9, 1946, under the direction of Professor Roy Bowden of the College of Agriculture at the University of Georgia, this little tree was transplanted to the location 10 its ancestor stood. This new tree became known as The Son of the Tree That Owns Itself and it was assumed that, as the original tree’s heir, it naturally inherited the land it stood on.
【答案】
1.why 2.as 3.feathered 4.might 5.transferred 6.read 7.to see 8.something 9.with 10.where
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了佐治亚州雅典市一棵闻名世界、被认为拥有自身及周围土地所有权的大白橡树的故事,介绍了其主人威廉·杰克逊上校喜爱并保护它的原因,以及这棵树的传承。
1.考查宾语从句。句意:至于他为什么如此喜爱这棵树,关于这个故事最早的文献记载是1890年8月12日发表在《雅典周刊》上的一篇文章,文章写道:“杰克逊上校从小看着这棵树长大,他对它的喜爱几乎就像对一个人的喜爱一样。” 此空引导的句子作As to的宾语,是宾语从句。从句中缺少状语,结合上下文是在探讨他喜爱这棵树的原因,所以用连接副词why。故填why。
2.考查方式状语从句。句意:至于他为什么如此喜爱这棵树,关于这个故事最早的文献记载是1890年8月12日发表在《雅典周刊》上的一篇文章,文章写道:“杰克逊上校从小看着这棵树长大,他对它的喜爱几乎就像对一个人的喜爱一样。” 根据语境,此处表示他对树喜爱的方式如同对人的喜爱,所以用as引导方式状语从句,意为“像……一样”。故填as。
3.考查形容词。句意:它茂密的叶子和粗壮的树枝经常保护他免受大雨的侵袭,他还多次从它最高的树枝上拿到有羽毛的鸟儿的蛋。此空修饰名词singers,要用形容词形式。feather的形容词形式是feathered,意为“有羽毛的”。故填feathered。
4.考查情态动词。句意:他看着它长大,当它到了成熟的老年,他看到这棵树以它雄伟的姿态矗立着,一想到在他死后它会落入可能会毁掉它的人手中,他就感到痛苦。根据语境,这里是说那些人存在毁掉树的可能性,所以用might表示“可能”。故填might。
5.考查动词时态。句意:为此,杰克逊通过契约将这棵树及其周围一小块土地的所有权转让给了这棵树本身。结合上下文,讲述的是过去发生的事情,所以用一般过去时。transfer的过去式为transferred。故填transferred。
6.考查动词时态。句意:契约上写着:“W. H. 杰克逊出于对这棵树的深厚感情,以及他希望看到它受到保护的强烈愿望,将这棵橡树及其周围八英尺范围内的所有土地的全部所有权转让给了这棵橡树。” 此处描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时。故填read。
7.考查非谓语动词。句意:契约上写着:“W. H. 杰克逊出于对这棵树的深厚感情,以及他希望看到它受到保护的强烈愿望,将这棵橡树及其周围八英尺范围内的所有土地的全部所有权转让给了这棵橡树。” 这里是固定搭配desire to do sth.,表示“做某事的愿望”,所以用动词不定式to see作后置定语,修饰desire。故填to see。
8.考查固定短语。句意:随着时间的推移,这棵树在某种程度上成了旅游景点,被称为“拥有自己的树”。something of表示“有点像,在某种程度上”,此处指这棵树在某种程度上成了旅游景点。故填something。
9.考查介词。句意:然而,在20世纪初,这棵树开始显示出慢慢死亡的迹象,对此几乎无能为力。分析句子结构,with在这里表示一种伴随的状况,引出一个与主句中 “树开始呈现缓慢死亡迹象” 同时存在的情况。故填with。
10.考查定语从句。句意:于是,1946年10月9日,在佐治亚大学农业学院的罗伊·鲍登教授的指导下,这棵小树被移植到了它祖先矗立的地方。此空引导定语从句,先行词是location,在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。

39.考查非谓语动词。句意:收割完毕后,稻子被整齐地捆扎起来,排列好,等待更好的处理。wait to do固定搭配,用不定式作宾语,又因handle与其逻辑主语rice之间是被动关系,所以用不定式的被动形式to be handled作宾语。故填to be handled。
40.考查介词。句意:如今,苗族人仍然保持着他们的传统生活方式和工作方式,尽管有成群的游客穿过他们的村庄。根据句意,“_____ the gazing crowds of tourists who pass through their villages”是让步状语,表示“尽管”,用介词despite构成介词短语作状语。故填despite。

Art Builds Understanding
At the just completed Designing for Empathy Summit, social scientists and museum leaders gathered to discuss how museums can build empathy and contribute to developing understanding and meaning-making.
Despite the long history of scholarship on experiences of art, researchers have yet to capture and understand 41 (meaningful) aspects of such experiences, including the thoughts and insights gained when we visit a museum, the sense of encounter after seeing a meaningful work of art, or the changed thinking after experiences with art. These powerful encounters 42 be inspiring, uplifting, and contribute to well-being and flourishing.
The theory of aesthetic cognitivism describes the value of art through its role in facilitating a better understanding of 43 , others, and the world. The question is how that happens–what are the attributes of meaningful experiences of art?
44 45 the mirror model of art developed by Pablo P. L. Tinio, aesthetic reception corresponds to artistic creation in a mirror-reversed fashion. Artists aim to express ideas and messages about the human condition or the world at large. To do so, they explore key ideas and continually expand, adapt, and fine-tune them as they develop the work, resulting in the build-up of layers of materials — 46 initial studies and sketches to the final, 47 (refine) piece.
A viewer’s initial interaction with an artwork starts 48 the artist has left off. Their interaction first involves processing surface features, such as color, texture, and the 49 (finish) touches applied by the artist during the final stages of the creative process. After spending more time with the work, the viewer begins to gain insight and access the ideas of the artist.
Correspondence in feeling and thinking suggests a transfer — between creator and viewer — of ideas, concepts, and emotions contained in the works of art. Art has the potential 50 (communicate) across space and time and create connections and insights 51 otherwise would not happen. What it takes for this to happen is active engagement with art in contexts that facilitate this engagement, especially museums.

Double-decker Buses
A double-decker bus is a bus that has two storeys or decks. Double-decker buses are used for mass transport all over the world. The most iconic example is the red London bus.
Early double-deckers put the driver in a separate cab(驾驶舱). Passengers entered the bus through an open platform at the back door, 52 a bus conductor would collect fares. The back open platform, popular with passengers, was abandoned for safety reasons, as there was a risk of passengers falling when 53 (run) onto the bus. Modern double-deckers have a main entrance door at the front and the driver takes fares. 54 this can cut down the number of bus workers aboard, it slows the boarding process. Double-deckers in London

The Transformative Power of Solo Travel
Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 72 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges.
Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 73 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, growing up in an increasingly digital world, 74 (pursue) authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country with no one 75 (rely) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 76 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence.
However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend 77 (research) local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women traveling alone are expected to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure 78 (respect) cultural norms may lead to serious consequences.
Ultimately, those 79 have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 80 profound impact that no classroom education can match. As travel writer Pico Lyer once remarked, “We travel initially to lose ourselves; we travel next to find ourselves.” Perhaps this explains 81 more young people are choosing to embark on journeys alone, seeking not just destinations, but transformations.

(2026 上海七宝中学・高一下・期末)
Napping during the day is an ancient custom that is practiced worldwide. While some people view napping as a luxurious indulgence, 82 see it as a way to maintain alertness and well-being. But napping can come with drawbacks 83 benefits.
As an orofacial pain specialist, I have extensive education in sleep medicine and 84 sleep impacts wellness, due mostly to the relationship between sleep and painful conditions such as headaches and facial pain. My training involved all aspects of sleep, especially sleep breathing disorders, insomnia and sleep-related movement disorders. As such, I’m aware of 85 complex nature of napping, and why a short nap – that is, a nap during the daytime that lasts from 20 to 30 minutes – may be beneficial in myriad ways.
Research shows that there are many benefits to napping. Short naps can boost mental functioning and memory, and improve alertness, attention and reaction time. Besides, short naps 86 (link) to increased productivity and creativity. Because napping seems to improve creative thinking, some companies have attempted to harness (利用) this 87 introducing napping rooms into the workplace. What’s more, it appears that the brain uses nap time to process information 88 (gather) throughout the day, which appears to enhance problem-solving abilities. One small study revealed that people who took short naps were 89 (frustrated) and impulsive, which resulted in better focus and efficiency when performing work-related tasks. Napping may even lead to an 90 (improve) ability to learn new motor skills, such as a golf swing or the playing of a musical instrument. This is because these memories or skills become consolidated in the brain during sleep, 91 at night or while napping.
While usually, the longer the nap, the more sleep inertia there is to overcome. This 92 impair (损害) cognitive function from several minutes up to half an hour. In many cases, these effects can be minimized by consuming caffeine directly after the nap.
But it is important to note that caffeine is not a substitute for sleep. Caffeine acts to temporarily block the action of a chemical known as adenosine (腺苷), a sleep-promoting agent that builds up during waking hours. If you are habitually dependent on caffeine consumption to keep you awake and alert, it may suggest that there is an underlying sleep disorder such as insomnia or sleep apnea, 93 a person temporarily stops breathing during sleep.

Passage 1
(2026 上海第四中学・高一下・期中)
Developing Competent (合格的) Teaching
Nations that have greatly improved their students’ achievement, such as Finland, Korea, Singapore, and others, attribute much of their success to their focused investments in teacher preparation and development.
1 (Create) a system that can routinely hire and prepare teachers effectively and can support successful teaching is the arena (竞技场) in which the United States 2 (fall) behind the most. Although there are some great teachers in every community, the landscape of the supports for quality teaching looks like Swiss cheese. In some states, the holes are smaller, and in others they are bigger. But in no case is there a fully 3 (develop) system of instructional support even remotely comparable to 4 in high-achieving nations. And of course, as we have seen, the system is weakest in communities 5 students’ needs are greatest.
Some have argued that the answer to weak teaching in the United States is to eliminate “barriers” to teaching, such as teacher education and certification requirements, allow anyone who wants to teach into the classroom, and fire those who prove not to be effective. Although the interest in teaching effectiveness is important, this approach does not offer strategy 6 (ensure) that teachers will have opportunities to gain the knowledge and skills they need in order to be effective, or that all schools will have the resources to attract and hire the best teachers. Nor does it protect the students in low-income schools, who will be the victims of unprepared and inexperienced teachers in the years until these teachers have demonstrated their incapability and left the field.
A regulation 7 (focus) on easy access and easy firing ignores the question of how to develop widespread teaching skills and ensure a strong supply of highly able teachers for schools. 8 such supply, principals will be unable to hire strong teachers even if they are free to hire whomever they are pleased with, and, evidence shows that schools are unlikely to fire weak teachers, 9 they feel they won’t be able to replace them. Even if they do, there is little guarantee that the quality of teaching 10 (improve). Although there are good reasons to argue for stronger evaluation practices for removing incapable teachers and for recognizing excellent ones, a theory that the major problems with teaching can be solved by carrots and sticks alone leaves the development of teaching abilities to chance.
【答案】

Facing Uncertainty in the Future
The future is an unknown that many of us fear. Throughout childhood, many of us are innocent, sheltered by the safety of home. We are fed ideals and taught principles by caretakers — parents, teachers, adults who shape our early beliefs. We are eighteen and pushed into adulthood 11 we know it, expected to find our way in a world we don’t yet understand.
Higher education often feels like the final threshold before full adulthood — a stormy space of doubt. Questions arise: What path should I take? Will I find happiness? These uncertainties weigh heavily, leaving one mentally exhausted and weakening confidence as the “real world” approaches. Yet, within this fear lies a hidden beauty: the realization that life isn’t as fixed as we’re taught. We assume that our early choices lock us in, and 12 taking a different route only results in failure. But the truth is, we hold 13 (much) power over our lives than we think. Still, many give up that power, softening their ambitions 14 (fit) expectations.
There’s much to say for consistency, but standing still limits potential for growth. Holding tightly to a set route risks 15 (waste) not just days, but an entire lifetime that 16 have been extraordinary. I know this fear well. 17 (Raise) to believe success meant perfect grades, a degree from a top university, and a high-paying job, I never questioned the path — until high school, 18 doubts slowly entered my mind. What if I wanted something else? The pressure shrank my world into a small, dark tunnel that I felt I had no choice but to follow.
But security doesn’t guarantee happiness. By university, I felt trapped, convinced I’d failed for not meeting expectations. Then, I took a leap: I switched my major 19 East Asian Studies, a field dismissed as impractical. Initially, the decision seemed illogical, contrary to 20 I was taught to believe in. Yet, instead of regret, I found relief. For the first time, I loved learning, freed from pressures I put on myself. The “right” path isn’t the same for everyone — it’s the one that awakens passion, not fear.

12.考查宾语从句。句意:我们习惯性认为早期的选择会束缚一生,并且认为改换道路只会迎来失败。本句为并列的宾语从句,第二个从句语意完整、不缺成分,需用that引导。
13.考查形容词比较级。句意:但事实是,我们对自己人生的掌控力远比想象中更强。根据后文than we think可知,此处用比较级,much的比较级为more。
14.考查非谓语动词。句意:即便如此,许多人主动放弃这份掌控力,削弱自身志向以迎合外界期待。此处为非谓语动词作状语,结合句意,此处表示目的,所以用动词不定式作目的状语,表“为了迎合”。
15.考查非谓语动词。句意:死守固定的人生路线,不仅会虚度时日,还可能辜负本可以精彩纷呈的一生。固定搭配risk doing sth.,意为“冒险做某事;注定做某事”,后接动名词wasting。

17.考查非谓语动词。句意:从小被灌输成功等同于优异成绩、名校文凭与高薪工作的观念,我从未质疑过这条既定道路。此为非谓语动词作状语,主语I与raise为被动关系,用过去分词作状语,位于句首,首字母大写。
18.考查定语从句。句意:我从未质疑过这条既定道路,直到高中时期,疑虑慢慢涌上心头。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为high school,在从句中作时间状语,用关系副词when。
19.考查介词。句意:后来我勇敢做出改变,将专业换成了被视作冷门无用的东亚研究。此处为固定搭配switch…to…,意为“转换为……”,所以此处使用介词to。
20.考查宾语从句。句意:起初,这个决定看似不合常理,与我从小到大被灌输的观念背道而驰。空处引导宾语从句,从句缺少宾语,指代事物,用连接代词what引导。

No matter what your reason for being outdoors is, you need to have an understanding of outdoor first aid and the challenges it can pose. 1 indoor environments, outdoor settings pose unique challenges that require a different approach to emergency care.

Population Forecasts: UN vs IHME on Fertility and Decline
Fertility (生育能力) is falling, people are aging, and by the end of the century humans 21 (decrease) in number on almost every continent, according to a recent study 22 (publish) in the journal Lancet. Far from an overpopulation crisis, demographers (人口学家) are asking where the next generations of young people will come from.
The study from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) projects the number of people on the planet will peak just four decades from now, at 9.7 billion, 23 falling to 8.8 billion by the end of the century.
In 80 years, countries like Spain and Japan would halve in size. China would shrink by almost as much, leaving India and Nigeria as the world’s 24 (populated) countries. Only in 12 countries, including Somalia and South Sudan, would there be enough babies to keep populations stable. The rest would be aging. And if the world meets targets for universal education — the positive driving force behind falling fertility — there would be 1.5 billion people fewer in 2100 than there are today.
Women are having fewer children globally because more girls go to school and more women know about how to keep away from getting pregnant. 25 demographers disagree on how far — and how fast — fertility will continue to fall.
While the IHME projects the world’s population will start shrinking by 2064, the United Nations expects it to continue growing throughout the century. The difference in population 26 the two estimates is about 2 billion people by 2100 — and the uncertainties are so great that both research groups accept the possibility of the opposite trend.
One reason for the difference is that the UN, unlike the IHME, predicts that fertility rates will rebound (反弹) as countries grow richer.
Surveys show that women across Europe and North America have fewer children than they would like 27 barriers like expensive childcare, job pressures and men not taking on a fair share of housework. By reducing the size of some of these obstacles, countries like Germany have seen their fertility rate rise
“The UN projections embody (体现) an optimism 28 the long history of human progress will continue,” said Sara Hertog, a demographer at the UN, 29 (add) that changing fertility rates are, in themselves, neither good news nor bad news. “I hope the level of fertility reflects the number of children people want to have, 30 is a sign of advancement to some extent.”

25.考查连词。句意:全球女性生育的孩子越来越少,原因是更多女孩接受教育,且更多女性了解如何避孕。但人口统计学家对于生育率还会下降多少、下降多快存在分歧。分析句子结构可知,前后两句为转折关系,应用连词but,且位于句首,首字母应大写。故填But。

In Ban Krua, Thompson found a whole community of weaver living very close to each other. 37 Thailand is, by and large, a Buddhist country, these weavers were Muslim—a fact that helps explain why they all stayed together within their tight community to support one another. Thompson was so impressed with the material being woven in this village that he took samples 38 (show) fashion magazines in New York. These magazine writers were amazed at the quality of this silk and wanted more.
Thompson returned to Ban Krua with orders for more silk. At that time, most of the weavers in Ban Krua supported 39 through other jobs, but Thompson eventually persuaded them to go back into production to supply his new company, the Thai silk Company Ltd, 40 (found) in 1948. This company soon made Thompson and a few of the Ban Krua weavers very wealthy.
