Here are four destinations that offer unique approaches to health and well-being. Canyon Ranch, Arizona, USA Located at the eastern edge of the Sonoran Desert, Canyon Ranch Tucson offers all-inclusive wellness programs combining traditional healing with modern technology. The resort features “neuro-acoustic sound beds” for deep meditation and personalized wellness screenings. Rates start at approximately $900 per night, covering meals, airport transfers, and a $200 nightly spa credit. The resort plans to open a new branch in Austin, Texas in 2026. Glen Dye, Scotland Situated on 15,000 acres in the Cairngorms National Park, this wellness retreat focuses on nature-based therapies. Guests can experience forest bathing, cold-water therapy in outdoor tubs, and artist-led natural-ink workshops. The Discovery and Adventure Centre offers courses ranging from $40 to $70 per person. Cottage rentals start at $1110 for a three-night stay to $1,883 for one week. Notably, all accommodations feature libraries and vinyl record players instead of televisions. Ancient Forest, British Columbia, Canada This rare inland temperate rainforest, located 65 miles east of Prince George, offers free access to hiking trails among 1,000-year-old western red cedars. A new Lheidli T’enneh interpretive center is scheduled to open in 2026, along with upgraded elevated boardwalks. Scientific studies suggest that time spent in this environment can boost cancer-fighting cells. Admission to the park remains free, making it the most accessible option for budget-conscious travelers. Six Senses Laamu, Maldives This remote island resort combines luxury with environmental consciousness. Guests receive personalized wellness screenings using advanced diagnostic technology, followed by tailored programs focusing on rest, exercise, and nutrition. The resort also supports coral reef conservation through its Sustainability Fund. Lagoon Water Villas start at around $1,065 per night. Visitors are encouraged to book screenings at the start of their stay to maximize benefits. 21. What do Canyon Ranch and Six Senses Laamu have in common? A. They both have a fund for environmental conservation. B. They both feature all-inclusive packages with spa credits. C. They both use technology in their wellness programs. D. They both encourage early booking of wellness services. 22. Which destination charges the highest accommodation rate per night? A. Canyon Ranch, Arizona B. Glen Dye, Scotland C. Ancient Forest, British Columbia D. Six Senses Laamu, Maldives 23. What is the primary purpose of this text? A. To compare prices of different wellness resorts B. To introduce various wellness destinations C. To encourage eco-friendly tourism practices D. To advertise specific wellness programs B Born in Zambia and raised in Portland, 25-year-old Asùkùlù Songolo is the son of Congolese refugees — a background that, as he says, has deeply shaped his life choices. In the beginning, Songolo planned to study international relations at Stanford University with a focus on Africa, followed by law school and a potential career as a professor of African history. However, his career path took an unexpected turn after spending the summer of 2023 as an intern (实习生) at Marché Noir Lomé-Paris, a French fashion boutique (时装店) in Paris during the Haute Couture Week. “I’ve always been interested in clothes. I admired how my parents, aunts, and uncles dressed, and I observed how people combined and matched different pieces,” Songolo explains. “But I never really saw fashion as a possible career. During Haute Couture Week, though, seeing people from diverse backgrounds all drawn to the same brand and viewing fashion as a unifying force made me reconsider.” Fast-forward three years, Songolo, who has launched his own brand, Luùndo, has fully committed to his fashion career. The brand combines traditional cultural clothing with modern designs, ranging from casual wear to tailored suits and dresses. Many of his creations are inspired by Congolese aesthetics (美学), and he aims to create more opportunities for people to engage with African culture through fashion, describing Luùndo not just as a brand but as a celebration where people can express their identity and heritage with love. “My dream is to develop creative industries, starting in Congo and then expanding across Africa. By 2050, Africa is expected to have the largest youth population in the world, but I don’t think enough is being done to create jobs for them.” His vision is to establish manufacturing in Congo and generate employment opportunities. 24. What initially influenced Asùkùlù Songolo’s career planning? A. His experience at Paris Haute Couture Week. B. His Congolese refugee family background. C. His research on immigrant youth engagement. D. His interest in clothes and fashion from a young age. 25. What made Songolo consider fashion as a career during his Paris internship? A. The chance to attend Haute Couture Week. B. Observing how his family members dressed. C. Seeing fashion bond people from diverse backgrounds. D. The opportunity to work at a fashion boutique. 26. What is the main goal of Songolo’s brand, Luùndo? A. To involve people in African culture through fashion. B. To become the most popular fashion brand globally. C. To focus only on traditional Congolese clothing. D. To compete with major international fashion brands. 27. Which of the following can best describe Songolo? A. Still waters run deep. B. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. C. One good turn deserves another. D. Honesty is the best policy. C Is a teenage boy more likely to grow up working with children as a teacher or with engines as a mechanic? Smart money bets on the latter, and that would still hold true even if you switch up the country or decade throughout the 20th century. But why? What are the factors that contribute to this seemingly stereotypical outcome? You might think that social forces — discrimination, gender roles, etc. — significantly shape these outcomes, but research shows that men and women’s occupational pursuits and interests have not changed much over the past century, even as social norms (社会规范) decidedly have. Boys and girls tend to pursue jobs dealing with things and people respectively. And, perhaps this preference for sex-typical jobs tends to increase when their country offers more economic and political empowerment for women — a phenomenon called the “gender-equality paradox (悖论).” A recent study noted that with fewer economic worries, greater national wealth might enable more students to pursue jobs to which they are naturally drawn. “Individual students in wealthy nations with strong social safety nets might choose more according to biologically influenced occupational interests than political ideals,” the study stated. Social factors may indeed play a role in determining which jobs young men and women are interested in, but biology seems to be a considerable force driving these outcomes. From a policy perspective, that means that interventions (干预) designed to bring more women into fields like STEM might need to be readjusted. From my perspective, it is worth considering whether such interventions are proper in the first place. After all, if we want greater national wealth and gender equality, and these two things seem to push people toward sex-typical jobs, then why not let the chips fall where they may? Moreover, what might be good for organizations and businesses is not always the same as what is good for individuals. 28. What does the underlined word “stereotypical” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Influential. B. Productive. C. Appealing. D. Unchanged. 29. Why does the phenomenon of “gender-equality paradox” occur? A. Women gain more economic and political support. B. Boys always pursue careers to do with people. C. Girls observe the social norms all the time. D. Men have less access to sex-typical occupations nowadays. 30. What is more likely to determine individuals’ occupational interest? A. Social safety nets. B. Political ideals. C. Biological factors. D. Readjusted interventions. 31. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Gender equality is having a greater impact on sex-typical occupations. B. Individuals should pursue their favored jobs regardless of the intervention. C. More proper policies should be made to intervene in women’s career options. D. Organizations and businesses have benefited greatly from economic growth. D The numerous bacteria that naturally inhabit the human body seem to help us in many ways. One group is emerging as particularly beneficial: a type of gut (肠道) bacteria known as Blautia, which has made headlines recently because it seems to produce some really remarkable effects. Now, a Chinese team is spotting another potential benefit of Blautia: helping people adapt to high altitudes (海拔). Their findings suggest that providing Blautia could help mountaineers and others perform better in these challenging environments. Qing-Peng Kong, a geneticist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and his team recruited 45 men to move from their homes at 250 meters above sea level to a town at about 3,700 meters. Despite the thin air, the men ate similar food as they had at home, minimizing the effects of diet changes on their gut bacteria. After 2 days, Blautia went from being rare to very numerous in their guts. In the second experiment, the team exposed mice to controlled low-oxygen conditions in the lab first and then simulated (模拟) an altitude of 4,000 meters, while giving Blautia to half of them every other day. The Blautia-treated mice showed milder response of altitude sickness. This opens the door into whether altitude sickness might be amenable to treatment through the gut. The bacteria’s effect may also extend to the brain. “Its superpower comes from the connection between the gut and the brain,” says Klepac-Cerak at Wellesley College. The fatty acids it makes are known to activate receptors (神经末梢) on nerves that connect the digestive system, heart and brain. This could help explain a surprising relationship that Klepac-Cerak reported last year: Kids are more likely to talk and laugh when they have more Blautia in their guts. “There’s lots of communication happening between our brain; we are just beginning to uncover what services bacteria do for us.” Klepac-Cerak notes. Blautia’s apparent superpowers suggest to Kong it could serve as a supplement (补充) that benefits people regardless of whether they are planning a trip to Tibet. But first, Kong says, he wants to find out whether Blautia is a “solo” player or has these protective effects only as part of a larger group of bacteria. 32. What’s the newly-found benefit of the study led by a Chinese team? A. It gets public attention. B. It introduces an advanced new technology. C. It makes social media angry. D. It helps people do better at high altitudes. 33. What do we know about the subjects (实验对象) in both experiments? A. They moved to high-altitude regions. B. They received Blautia in their diet. C. They experienced low-oxygen conditions. D. They suffered severe altitude sickness. 34. What does the underlined word “amenable” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Reactive B. Untreatable C. Unchangeable D. Careless 35. How would both Kong and Klepac-Cerak describe Blautia’s role in human health? A. double-edged sword. B. A solo player. C. A partially-understood influence. D. An extremely effective solution. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I used to love my nonstick pans, marveling at the ease of cleanup, until I learned that the plastic lining may release toxins (毒素) when heated. Thus began my campaign to rid my life of plastics. 36 But I still had no clear idea what kinds of plastic were truly dangerous. I wanted to know my enemy. To be fair, plastics are amazing. Light, waterproof and stretchy, plastics have made modern life safer and cheaper. 37 Eighteen minutes after waking up, I admitted defeat. I couldn’t turn on the light. Nor could I brush my teeth. No underwear or socks — if something stretches, it’s thanks to plastic. 38 Even the human body itself is part plastic. Curious to know how plastic I am, I got tested. The results showed 2.06 nanograms of PFAS in every milliliter of my blood — an “intermediate” level associated with a potential risk of adverse health effects. I then consulted Tracey Woodruff of UC San Francisco. People should just do what they can, she said. In the kitchen, choose glass containers. Elsewhere in the home, replace microfiber towels with cotton ones. Another point Woodruff made stuck in my head. 39 So I turned my attention to my kids. Sheets and blankets matter because we breathe so close to the fibers for so many hours. 40 What worried me was my children growing up in a world where all the objects around them seem bound to hurt them. Throwing the pans out seemed, for now, like the least I could do. And the most I could do, too. A. We depend heavily on plastics. B. I threw out obvious offenders. C. I wanted to make life safer for my children. D. Children are among those most at risk from plastics. E. I replaced my sons’ with natural alternatives. F. Plastic is not just everywhere in our homes, but everywhere, period. G. One day, I decided to see how long I could go without using plastic. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I can still remember the moment when I came up with the idea for my fantasy series.

My dog, Lucky, was sleeping peacefully on the floor. My small artificial Christmas tree was set up on the table. Its lights twinkled (闪烁) merrily, bringing me warmth and hope. The rain was coming down hard outside. Its sound made me fall asleep. At 5 am, I suddenly woke up and saw water rushing in from under the front door of my house. The water could rise in minutes, trapping me in the house and causing me to drown. Hurriedly, I carried essential items and tried the back door. My truck was parked outside the back door, and this was the quickest way to it. But the back door wouldn’t open. The water level must be higher than I thought. I hurried to the front door. With some efforts, I managed to open it. Now, I just had to get Lucky. I turned around, finding she had moved onto the sofa. “Come here, Lucky!” I said. But she didn’t move because of fear. About five inches of water covered the floor now. Full of items in my hands, I decided to first get my truck, put my things in it, then pull up to the front door and carry Lucky out. “Stay, girl!” I shouted, closed the front door and stepped into the deep water outside. Finally, I reached the truck and began driving to the front of the house. Halfway, the rising floodwater killed the engine. Upset, I jumped out, walking through the water toward the front door to pick up Lucky. Unfortunately, due to the pressure of the rising water, now I couldn’t open the front door. Lucky was still inside. I had to get to the higher ground to find help for Lucky. I turned around and anxiously started walking, uphill, towards the main road. After arriving there, I found no people around. Then, I tried my phone, but it wouldn’t be switched on; it was wet. Just then, a car came and I waved down the driver. I borrowed his phone and called emergency services. Finally, rescuers arrived. 注意： 1．续写词数为 150 左右；2．请按如下格式作答 I immediately approached them, telling them my dog was still inside the house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Days later, while returning to my house, I wondered, “What’s the condition of my poor house now?” _______ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
