Growing up in Calgary, our boys have only seen buildings from the early 1900s. We wanted to show them ancient castles, monuments, and grand palaces, so we took a family trip to Edinburgh.
Scotland holds a personal connection for us, as my kids have Scottish heritage. We hoped this trip would connect them to their ancestors’ culture.
Our airport taxi driver pointed out landmarks and shared historical facts. Through his thick Scottish accent, he suggested visiting the National Records of Scotland office to explore our family history. Despite their jet lag (时差反应), my kids perked up at this suggestion. They barely knew the names of their relatives but were eager to dig into their past.
On our way into the city, we saw Edinburgh Castle on the rocky cliff of Castle Rock. The streets were lined with ancient buildings and narrow passageways, with Arthur’s Seat towering in the background.
After dropping off our bags at the hotel, we wandered through the lively streets. The Royal Mile, a road between Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, was busy with activity. My kids were more interested in the souvenir shops lining the street.
We visited a few shops, seeing typical Scottish items: boxed shortbread, Loch Ness monster toys and woolen sweaters. One store caught my kids’ attention with a large display of scarves arranged by family. My boys quickly found the patterns of their ancestors, Cunningham and MacPherson. They were fascinated by the colorful patterns and felt a connection to their heritage.
My boys are a mix of several cultures. Their connection to these cultures has faded, but in that shop, I saw a change. They realized these scarves represented their family history. It was a simple yet deep link to their past.
We didn’t expect such a profound cultural connection in a souvenir shop. Surprisingly, even the kids knew the magic lay in the discovery itself, so we didn’t buy any items. Instead, we valued the feeling of their initial discovery.
24. What was the main aim of the family trip to Edinburgh?
A. To honor their ancestors. B. To explore ancient castles.
C. To strengthen their cultural bonds. D. To experience local traditions.
25. What does the underlined phrase “perked up at” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Felt doubtful about. B. Became excited about.
C. Showed great surprise at. D. Lost interest quickly in.
26. What impressed the boys most during their visit?
A. The scarves with family patterns.
B. The lively atmosphere at the Royal Mile.
C. The diversity of Scottish souvenirs.
D. The historical meaning of the landmarks.
27. Why did the family decide not to purchase the items?
A. Their budget was not enough. B. They found the items insignificant.
C. They chose less flashy souvenirs instead. D. They valued the emotional connection more.
C
Giraffes have one of the most recognizable shapes on the planet. “They walk so gracefully that it looks like they are floating across the grassland,” says Michael Brown, an ecologist with the Giraffe Conservation Foundation (GCF).
Our familiarity with these tall animals can sometimes hide their declining numbers, masking a “silent extinction”. Expanding agriculture and human communities across Africa have destroyed or fragmented large areas of the grassland where giraffes need to find food, causing a 40 percent decline in giraffe species since 1985. Nubian giraffes, a critically endangered subspecies found in South Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda and Kenya, have lost an estimated 95 percent of their population. Today they’re down to perhaps 3,000 animals.
This crisis recently led GCF to partner with African Parks, a conservation group managing Badingilo and Boma National Parks in South Sudan. They aim to track, study and protect the giraffes.
Tracking giraffes presents a challenge. GPS collars typically go around the neck, but giraffe necks, six feet long and varying in thickness, aren’t suited for collars; the devices slide down when the animal lowers its head. Researchers tried anklets (踝环), chest harnesses and even tags on their horn-like nubs, but nothing worked for long, says Sara Ferguson, a GCF wildlife veterinarian.
Recent technological advances have shrunk trackers to the size of a candy bar, small enough to attach to the tail or an ear. The new tags are solar-powered, less noticeable and should last a year or more. In April, 2024, Ferguson and others from African Parks went across Badingilo and Boma by helicopter and attached trackers to 11 Nubian giraffes. The data collected will help identify where they mainly live and go within the parks’ 7.4 million acres, potentially driving their expansion and showing where extra patrols to limit illegal hunting or community education to encourage local support for conservation can save giraffe lives. “We can’t conserve what we don’t understand,” says Julian Fennessy, co-founder and conservation director of GCF. “We need these data to protect this landscape before it’s too late.”
28. What has caused a 40 percent decline in giraffe species since 1985?
A. Disease outbreaks. B. Climate change. C. Habitat loss. D. Illegal hunting.
29. Why are traditional GPS collars unsuitable for giraffes?
A. They are too heavy. B. They fall off easily.
C. They provide inaccurate data. D. They affect the giraffes’ movement.
30. What is the main goal of tracking the giraffes?
A. To monitor their health states. B. To study their social structure.
C. To detect threats from other species. D. To identify their key habitats and routes.
31. Which would be the best title for the text?
A. Giraffe-tracking innovations B. Technology for wildlife protection
C. Cooperative conservation efforts D. The silent extinction of Nubian giraffes
D
Psychologists have long believed willpower is the ticket to a good life. So parenting experts advocate teaching children to use willpower to resist modern temptations(诱惑). It is thought that you can build a child's willpower the way athletes build up muscles, through practice. For example, exposing children to junk food more, they claim,helps them learn to resist it. However, this assumption has a fatal flaw: it doesn't work for very long.
In fact, trying to build up kids' willpower can have the opposite effect. Humans are biologically programmed to prefer fatty and sweet foods, so regularly offering these temptations only strengthens children's desire for them. Rather than teaching self-control, this approach actually makes resisting such foods more difficult.
New studies observe what people do in real life to meet their long-term goals, and they reveal something surprising:the more successful people don't have better willpower compared to those who are less successful. Instead, successful people expose themselves to fewer temptations so they don't need to use willpower frequently. In essence, parents don't need to teach kids how to say"no”to the marshmallow (棉花糖)sitting in front of them, but rather, how to avoid being in a room with marshmallows altogether. This principle applies beyond food. For example, parents can teach kids to leave their phone in another room when studying or to use apps that block distracting websites and games.
Avoiding temptation is only half the strategy. The great thing is that parents can help kids fall in love with healthier alternatives. To shape their preferences, give your kids loads of opportunities to experience the pleasure of these healthy options. Besides, pay attention to how you talk about healthy foods and activities. Don't present them as burdens, sacrifices, or punishments. Above all, whether it's eating healthier food, doing physical exercise, or reading good books, if you make the experience more fun for your kids, then they are more likely to do it again.
32.What is a common practice to build up willpower?
A.Staying away from junk food.
B.Engaging in more athletic activities.
C.Putting oneself in tempting situations.
D.Exposing oneself to their inner desire.
33.What can we learn from the new studies?
A.Willpower ensures lifelong success.
B.Willpower drops with frequent use.
C.Success requires long-term planning.
D.Successful people avoid temptations.
34.What advice does the author give to parents in the last paragraph?
A.Punish for giving in to desires.
B.Reinforce willpower strategies.
C.Make healthy experiences enjoyable.
D.Offer more healthy options as rewards.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Build Willpower,Form Good Habits
B.Resist Temptation,Practice Self-Control
C.Change Parenting,Strengthen Willpower
D.Avoid Temptation,Love Healthier Choices

第二节(满分25分)
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。
My wife and I wanted to share our new home with family and friends by hosting a small gathering in the early summer. She had prepared lots of snacks, while my job was to have the backyard in order.
There was plenty of space for the kids to run and play. There was just one thing I hadn’t counted on: My brother chose to bring his dog Toby, a 50-pound ball of fire. Though friendly, he could easily knock over my niece’s small boys and my six-month-old granddaughter. So, when my brother showed up, I asked him to watch Toby and keep him outside.
My plan was working out just fine. Toby was using up his energy by running back and forth in the backyard and giving the kids plenty of room. Unexpectedly, after supper, the weather changed. It started to rain and everyone went indoors.
It was an awkward moment. I didn’t want Toby to be running around in the house, and my brother wasn’t happy with driving home with a wet dog. Eventually, my brother decided to leave rather than force the issue.
A few days passed, and I hadn’t heard anything from my brother. I texted him and expressed wishes for him to come out again. His reply came as a surprise — a shock, actually: “Not a chance.” Clearly, he was unhappy over the way we had parted. After all, I had left him little choice. Well, he’ll get over it, I reasoned.
Two months passed. My wife suggested I get in touch with my brother, but I resisted, thinking he should call first. However, my conscience (良心) kept bothering me. I tried to put myself in my brother’s shoes. He was facing health issues and his wife of thirty-five years had passed away a few months earlier. Toby was his constant companion, the one who kept him going.
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。
I realized it was me who was at fault.
With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother’s door.

Possible version one:
Dear Chris,
I am writing to share with you an art class had in a parklast Friday.In the class,we were asked to create artwork inspired by nature. I chose todraw a beautiful landscape scene with blooming flowers,a calm lake, and aclear blue sky. It was a unique experience to create art under the open sky,because I could not only connect with nature but also fully express my creativity.Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the art class. I am attaching a photo of my artwork for you and hope you like it.
Yours,
Li Hua
Possible version two:
Dear Chris,
I am wriing to share with you an art class had in apark last Friday.During the class, I painted a landscape featuring the towering green treesand the clear blue sky, with a family of ducks swimming in the lake. The painting not only represented the scene but also mirrored the peacefulness I sensed. Creating artwork in the park was a refreshing break from the usual classroom setting. The fresh air and the sound of birds singing added a calming effect to the whole process. It was a truly amazing experience! I can't wait to show you my creation in person and perhaps we can enjoy a similar experience together.
Yours,
Li Hua
One possible version:
I realized it was me who was at fault. My brother had beengoing,through tough times, yet I was so thoughtless about his feelings that rainy day. Toby wasn't just a pet; he was my brother's rock. How could I have forced him to leave his dog out in the rain? The more I reflected, the heavier
my guilt grew. I knew I had to make things rightsoI turned to my wife for advice. She offered to bake a batch of biscuits,hoping these small, warm gestures could start to mend what I'd broken.With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door.
Myheart raced as I knocked, worried he'd turn me away.When he finally opened the door, surprise flashed in his eyes.“I'm sorry," I blurted out,holding out the biscuits.“For being so hard on you that day. Toby is family too, and I should've known better.” My brother sighed, then pulled me into a hug. Inside,Toby greeted me with a wagging tail. As we chatted over the biscuits, laughter slowly filled the room, bridging the gap between us.
