W: Yes. My family and I lived in Hainan, China before we came to America. We do not have snow in winter. It’s always sunny.
M: No wonder. I guess you must be a good swimmer, then.
W: You’re right. Swimming is my favourite hobby. I enjoy the feeling in the water. But I simply don’t know what to do on the snow.
M: Don’t worry. I’m sure you will learn it very soon. Now, keep bending while going down. OK. Move slowly. Do just like what I do. Yes, great.
W: I see. Oh, I am not that nervous! Thank you. You are so kind. How I wish we could be friends.

第二节
Taking a deep breath, Rohan stood up and walked weakly to the teacher’s desk. He admitted the mistake in his answer. Mrs. Sharma looked up, slightly surprised. She checked carefully, nodded, and crossed out 94, writing 92 instead. For a moment. Rohan felt disappointed, but relief soon followed. Mrs. Sharma praised him in front of the class, saying that most students would have kept quiet, and that marks could be corrected but character was built by choices. She told everyone that being first was good, but being truthful was greater. Rohan felt a quiet, warm pride spreading through him as his classmates looked at him with sincere respect.
When Rohan got home, he showed his father the paper and told him everything. Instead of expressing disappointment, his father smiled gently and placed a hand on his shoulder, saying, “My son, today you scored 100 in honesty.” That night, Rohan slept peacefully. The number on the paper no longer mattered; it was the lightness in his heart that counted. He also understood deeply that success may bring temporary joy, but truth brings lasting peace and true pride. Being honest, even when it costs you something, is the real victory in life.

In the late 1980s, Stephanie Garber was driving through down town Silver Spring, MD, when a large pickup truck hit her car. She wasn’t injured, but the other driver was annoyed, claiming the accident was Garber’s fault. And her car was completely destroyed.
Garber stood on the sidewalk, waiting for rescue to arrive. As she watched her car blocking traffic in the middle of the morning rush hour, Garber couldn’t help crying. “I was standing there. I was anxious and nervous. And I felt guilty about keeping the traffic stopped,” Garber said. “So, I really was not myself.” All of a sudden, a professionally dressed woman approached her. The woman appeared to be on her way to work and she was holding a cup of hot tea from the nearby coffee shop.
Garber recalled, “She handed it to me and said, ‘Maybe this will help.’ And when I looked at her, I just felt such kindness coming my way at a time when I needed it.” They smiled at each other and Garber thought she told the woman thank you, though she’s not sure. Then the woman went on her way. Garber recalled drinking the entire cup of tea. “Actually, I’ve never liked tea at all,” she said. “But I drank every drop and I felt her sympathy coming through with each swallow.”
The next morning, during rush hour, Garber drove a rental car back to the same spot downtown, hoping to find the woman and thank her again. But the woman wasn’t there. Garber held on to the small tag (标签) from the tea bag for about 15 years as a way to remember the woman’s act of generosity.
“I still remember it. I tell all my friends I never forget the kindness,” Garber said. “And this might have seemed like a very small kindness, but it meant a lot.”
24. What was the result of the accident for Garber?
A. She caused traffic jams on purpose. B. She paid for the other driver’s loss.
C. She was unhurt but lost her car. D. She was fined by the police officer.
25. Why did Garber cry after the accident?
A. She felt upset and ashamed. B. Passers-by treated her rudely.
C. The rescue didn’t arrive in time. D. She got badly frightened.
26. Why did Garber keep the tea bag tag for 15 years?
A. To remind herself to drink more tea. B. To treasure an unexpected kindness.
C. To prove the power of small kindnesses. D. To look for the woman and return it to her.
27. What message does the text mainly want to convey?
A. Accidents always bring pain. B. Drinking tea can ease anxiety.
C. Tiny acts of care go a long way. D. People in trouble desire material help.
C
A Chinese American girl called Sherry once said, “Tomorrow you’re turning Chinese.” This sentence became popular on TikTok. Many people around the world became interested in Chinese lifestyles. Her video got millions of views, and many users shared their own stories. Some users loved Chinese hotpot, drinking hot water and wearing house slippers (拖鞋). Others wanted to have rice porridge for breakfast and shared how to cook it. Soon, people from different countries posted videos about their “Chinese-style living”. They enjoyed slow-cooked soup and saw these habits as “Eastern wisdom”. It’s important to know: this trend is about daily Chinese habits, not changing nationality.
This online interest also includes healthy living. An American woman said drinking hot water and ginger tea often made her stomach feel better. Some foreign video makers started practising Baduanjin, a traditional Chinese exercise. They said it was good for building strength and keeping healthy. These examples show more and more foreigners are curious about Chinese traditions.
Travel is also changing how the world sees China. China’s 144-hour visa-free transit policy helps change old stereotypes (刻板印象). Visitors found a modern country with smart cars and digital payments. They saw practical wisdom in daily life, not just tai chi and calligraphy (书法). Visiting China in person helps them understand the country better and more correctly.
In the past, some Chinese people ignored their own culture, believing “the foreign moon shines brighter”. Now, many foreigners love Chinese-style living. Today, the overseas welcome of Chinese-style living offers a mirror image, which lets Chinese people look again at their own traditions and find their wide attraction. This trend also helps change unfair pictures of China in old Western media. As more people visit China and share real stories, old stereotypes are slowly disappearing.
The popularity of Chinese daily life content on social media represents a new way of communication. By focusing on daily routines instead of difficult discussions, these short videos help Chinese culture achieve a “soft landing” overseas. As one American user put it, “We think being Chinese is cool and healthy.” This kind of exchange, based on real life, is quietly changing global views of China and building a more detailed understanding through the universal language of everyday life.
28. What characteristics do the habits in the first two paragraphs have?
A. Their connection to arts like calligraphy.
B. Their dependence on modern smart technology.
C. Their contribution to health and life.
D. They are advised by professional Chinese bloggers.
29. What does the author imply about the 144-hour visa-free policy?
A. It has replaced social media as the main source of information.
B. It helps people see the real China and change old wrong ideas.
C. It focuses on developing traditional arts like tai chi.
D. It aims to increase the usage of digital payments.
30. Why does the author use the phrase “mirror image” in Paragraph 4?
A. To prove that Chinese culture has always been the most popular worldwide.

Researchers have found evidence of a huge underground cave on the moon that is accessible from the surface, making the spot a favourable location to build a future lunar base.
The cave appears reachable from an open pit (深坑) in the Mare Tranquillitatis, where the Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first set foot on the moon. Analysis (分析) of data revealed that the Mare Tranquillitatis pit leads to a cave 45 metres wide and up to 80 metres long, about 150 metres beneath the surface. Lorenzo Bruzzone, professor of the University of Trento in Italy, said the cave was “probably an empty lava (熔岩) tube”, adding that such features could serve as human habitats in the future. They were “a natural shelter against the tough lunar environment”.
Many pits are thought to be “skylights” that connect to underground caves and giant underground tunnels (通道). Such caves could form the basis for a base or an emergency shelter because the temperature is relatively stable inside. And astronauts would be naturally sheltered from harmful space rays, solar radiation and micrometeorites (微陨石). The caves may contain water ice. “The main advantage of caves is that they make human base possible without requiring complex construction (建造) activities,” said Leonardo Carrer, the study’s first author.
Scientists are wondering how to assess (评估) the structural stability of caves and strengthen their walls and ceilings. Habitats may also need monitoring systems and have separate areas for astronauts. “Lunar cave systems have been proposed as great places to site future manned bases,” said Katherine Joy, a professor in Earth sciences. “However, we currently know very little about the underground structures.”
Robert Wagner, a researcher at Arizona State University, said one of the biggest challenges would be access. “It’s certainly possible to get in and out, but it will take a significant amount of construction of support systems.”
32. Which aspect of the cave do the researchers value most in the beginning?
A. Its size. B. Its accessibility.
C. Its location. D. Its depth.
33. Why is the lunar cave good for a future base?
A. It offers shelter and basic structure.
B. It contains large amounts of water ice.
C. It makes building new tunnels easier.
D. It is located near the Apollo 1 1 landing site.
34. What does Wagner stress about the cave?
A. Its walls and ceilings need strengthening.
B. Its entry requires engineering efforts.
C. Little is known about its inner parts.
D. It lacks a life support system.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Shelter Built in a Moon Cave
B. Plans for a Moon Cave Base
C. The Discovery of a Moon Cave
D. The Hidden World of Lunar Caves

While pesticides (杀虫剂) are common in many gardens, they’re not the only option when it comes to creating a beautiful backyard. But going organic isn’t merely about avoiding harm of pesticides. 36 Here, we explore steps to create a garden with natural methods.
Try lazy gardening
Worried about leaves building up on your ground? Sweep pathways to keep them safe and clear, but leaves left to break down become natural plant nutrition (营养). 37 These multiple functions lay the foundation for a rich and healthy environment.
Reframe the idea of “pests” and “weeds”
The Royal Horticultural Society encourages gardeners to think of “pests” as “wildlife in the wrong place”. It reminds us that our plants can usually handle some level of damage, and the aim shouldn’t be to destroy these creatures, but to balance them to a tolerable (可容忍的) level. 38 Most weeds are native species that provide food and shelter for wildlife.
Use biological controls
39 Unlike pesticides, these natural hunters don’t cause any damage to your plants or your health, and they can actually be more effective at targeting a problem. For example, got an aphid infestation (蚜虫侵害)? Introduce some beneficial insects that eat aphids.
Learn to spot problems early
When you can spot and identify problems early on, it’s much easier to take action. For instance, you find disease spots on the leaves of your climbing plants, and quickly cut the infected leaves off — the problem should be solved, and no treatment is required. Or your plants look weak, so you check if the water can go into the soil well, and adjust your watering schedule. 40
A. It’s about working with nature.
B. Prevent weeds with organic matters.
C. Going organic offers a full harvest of positives.
D. They also provide safe habitats for garden creatures.
E. Natural enemies (敌人) can help you manage your garden ecosystem.
F. This not only builds your gardening skills but also saves you money.
G. Similarly, “weeds” are simply plants growing where we prefer them not to.

When I was young, my understanding of life was simple. This made it 41 for me to deal with the world around me. As I grew up, things seemed more complex (复杂的), which made life more 42 . Now, middle-aged, I find my 43 of the world is returning to the simple.
When I try to teach my daughter important 44 about life, I will break complicated things down into small pieces. One of those basics is 45 for yourself, and for others. I teach my daughter to 46 this. To fail feels bad, 47 , but not to have tried it feels worse, because you can’t respect yourself for it. And as the saying 48 , if you don’t respect yourself, no one else will.
When I was seven or eight, I played at my cousin’s house with his toys. There was one in particular that I’d always wanted, and I 49 it in my pocket. But a moment later, I 50 , even at that age, that I would never enjoy playing with the toy. I would always know I had 51 that toy, and my opinion of myself would be 52 . When his mother dropped me off later that day, I shamefacedly 53 the toy and gave it back. She knew, I’m sure, what had happened, but she thanked me and never spoke of it again.
I hope to help my daughter avoid similar 54 . She first has to gain self-respect before she can start respecting others. I’m not 55 in this regard. But I try my best, and I respect others for trying their best in this changing world.

六、书面表达(共25分)
67.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。
Rohan was not the kind of student who usually ranked (排名) first in class. He worked hard, completed his assignments on time, and respected his teachers, but there was always someone who scored slightly higher. He never complained, though. His father often reminded him, “marks matter, but honesty matters more.”
Rohan believed that — or so he thought.
Then came the day when the math exam results were announced. The classroom buzzed with nervous whispers. Some students prayed silently, while others tapped their pencils anxiously. When Mrs. Sharma began calling out names, Rohan’s heart raced. He had studied extremely hard and hoped for a satisfying score. “Rohan,” Mrs. Sharma called. He stepped forward and took his paper with trembling (颤抖的) hands. Glancing at the top, he froze: 94 out of 100 — the highest score he had ever achieved. His best friend Aarav, who usually topped the class, had only scored 93. Disbelief washed over him. “Well done, Rohan! You deserve it,” Aarav smiled sincerely. Rohan forced a smile, yet he felt uneasy. Checking his paper carefully, he spotted a careless calculation mistake in question 7. He clearly remembered being unsure about that answer. But Mrs. Sharma had given him full marks.
His fingers tightened around the paper. “No one will notice,” a small voice inside him whispered. “Just two points. You worked hard anyway.” Another voice insisted, “but it’s wrong.” If he told the truth, his marks would drop to 92 and he would lose the first place. For a moment, he imagined going home and showing his parents the 94. They would be so proud. His father might even bring sweets to celebrate. But his heart felt heavy.
He recalled a time when his father had returned extra change that a shopkeeper had given him by mistake. “Son,” he told Rohan that day, “wealth gained without honesty never brings peace.” Rohan stared at his exam paper again. The number “94” no longer brought him excitement, only guilt (内疚). Slowly, he rose, legs trembling.
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。
Taking a deep breath, Rohan stood up and walked weakly to the teacher’s desk. ____________________________

When Rohan got home, he showed his father the paper and told him everything. ____________________________
