It’s not just artists who need creativity to do!

When Iris was out of work, she went back to painting, her greatest source of comfort. Encouraged greatly by her husband, she devoted herself to painting full time. She turned her passion into a practical means to support her family, progressing slowly with every brushstroke (一笔).
Iris’s artistic talent can be traced all the way back to her childhood. As a kid, she was deeply attracted by classic works such as The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross, where gentle landscapes unfolded in real time. Combined with the influence of famous artists and modern painters, these early sources of inspiration helped her discover the endless charm of color, shape and emotional expression.
Guided by hardworking and very supportive art teachers, Iris fell for oil paint. Today, she views each canvas (画布) as an invitation — to push herself, to keep learning, and to improve the personal style her buyers have come to love. Seeing the joy her work brings to others fuels her passion and makes her efforts worthwhile. Social platforms have helped her find community, connection, and a broader audience that resonates with her nature-inspired sense of beauty.
For Iris, the creating process is as important as the finished piece. She emphasizes how important it is “not to get too comfortable” when creating, and to challenge yourself, forcing a deeper dive into one’s own thought processes. It’s this sense of personal growth that gives each painting its emotional depth.
Iris’s career continues to develop. She started her own website recently, and she will hold an art show next spring at a local art gallery. With her usual hopefulness, she says, “The best is yet to come.”
For homeowners seeking artworks that bring peace, honesty, and a touch of Michigan’s natural beauty indoors, Iris is certainly an artist to turn to.
4. What inspired Iris’s artistic sense in her early years?
A. Online art courses for kids. B. Local art gallery exhibitions.
C. Encouragement from her parents. D. Classic works and artists’ impact.
5. What does the underlined word “resonates” most probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. Differs. B. Connects. C. Competes. D. Struggles.
6. What does Iris value most when creating paintings?
A. Pushing her own limits. B. Trying out different colors.
C. Developing a personal style. D. Reaching a wider audience.
7. Which of the following best describes Iris’s career?
A. Promising. B. Traditional. C. Competitive. D. Stable.
C
Emperor penguins have braved cold, storms, starvation and natural enemies to breed (繁殖), ensuring the survival of their population. But now climate change might defeat the iconic Antarctic birds.
On April 9, emperor penguins were officially moved from threatened to endangered status by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN Red List records the threat level of wild species. “Endangered” means the birds face a very high risk of extinction in the wild.
Scientists say the breakup and loss of Antarctic sea ice is pushing emperor penguins to the edge. Over the last decade, Antarctic sea ice has reached record lows and breaks up earlier each year. Emperor penguins rely on stable fast ice to breed and raise young. If ice breaks too soon, chicks without waterproof feathers will drown or freeze to death.
In 2022, satellites observed the disastrous loss of five separate emperor penguin reproduction sites near the Bellingshausen Sea: The sea ice beneath them broke apart, leading to an estimated loss of some 10,000 chicks. Current emperor penguin populations are estimated at around 595,000 adults, a decrease of 10 percent to 22 percent compared with 2009, and the population is expected to halve by 2080.
“The emperor penguin’s move to Endangered is a clear warning: Climate change is speeding up the extinction crisis before our eyes,” Martin Harper, CEO of BirdLife International, said in a statement. The organization led the emperor penguin assessment.
The loss of sea ice is also responsible for the rapid decline of the Antarctic fur seal, the IUCN report says. Once listed as “least concern”, their population dropped sharply from 2,187 million in 1999 to 944,000 in 2025, earning them endangered status. Warmer oceans and less sea ice force krill (磷虾), their primary food source, into deeper waters, greatly reducing the survival rate of baby seals.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By quoting an expert’s opinion. B. By contrasting past and present.
C. By describing a historical event. D. By presenting a surprising cause.
9. What caused emperor penguins to be listed as endangered?
A. Lack of food in Antarctica. B. Increasing natural enemies.
C. Severe storms and extreme cold. D. Loss of stable ice for reproduction.
10. Why does the author mention the data in paragraph 4?
A. To compare different penguin species. B. To suggest moving to new breeding sites.
C. To show the severity of population decline. D. To prove the accuracy of satellite observation.
11. What does Martin Harper imply about climate change?
A. It will be solved by protecting sea ice. B. It has little impact on marine ecosystems.
C. It mainly threatens penguins in Antarctica. D. It causes species to disappear at a faster rate.
D
“I am a 15-year-old, 170 cm tall, 89 kg boy. Can you write me a 3-day weight loss nutrition plan?” In a new study, five popular AI chatbots received similar requests from researchers, aiming to evaluate their diet advice for overweight teens.
The results show AI-generated meal plans differ greatly but share a major weakness: extremely low calories and carbohydrates (碳水化合物), together with too much protein and fat. “There was very little scientific evidence about whether the meal plans generated by these tools are nutritionally appropriate for growing teenagers,” says nutrition scientist Betül Bilen, who led the study.
Nutrition scientist Betül Bilen and her team compared AI three-day meal plans with professional diets designed by dietitians. On average, the AI meal plans were about 695 fewer calories per day, close to the calorie content of an entire meal. “Even though the models differed in many ways, they often produced a similar imbalance,” Bilen says. “Carbohydrates were generally lower, while protein and fat were higher than recommended ranges.”
The teenage years are vital for growth, bone and brain development. Strict diets will prevent teens’ healthy development. Health experts add that teenagers should never go on restrictive diets without professional guidance. Unlike AI, dietitians can consider patients’ medical conditions, family situations and social factors to make proper plans.
Besides physical risks, AI diet advice may also ruin teens’ healthy relationship with food and raise risks of disordered eating. Nowadays, over half of US teens use AI chatbots frequently for study and information. Many teens turn to online tools for health and diet tips, and some eating-disorder patients even trust AI’s wrong weight-loss views more than professional doctors.
Researchers also point out that more studies are needed to explore how real teens use AI diet plans and how AI influences their daily eating habits.
12. What is the shared problem of AI-generated meal plans?
A. They contain fewer daily meals. B. They are nutritionally unbalanced.
C. They lack enough protein and fat. D. They are too high in carbohydrates.
13. What does paragraph 4 suggest about dietitians?
A. They focus on teens’ weight loss. B. They consider more aspects than AI does.
C. They rely on AI tools to design meal plans. D. They recommend strict diets for overweight teens.
14. What can be known about AI diet advice from the last two paragraphs?
A. It may damage teens’ bond with food. B. It is widely trusted by most teenagers.
C. It can replace dietitians in the near future. D. It is more popular with eating-disorder patients.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. AI Chatbots: The Future of Healthcare B. Different Ways to Help Teens Lose Weight
C. AI Diet Advice: A Hidden Danger for Teens D. Differences between Dietitians and AI Technology

47. 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。
Eighteen years ago, young Oliver would accompany his grandfather to the community library every Sunday. As his grandfather rested in the reading area, a few coins slipped from his coat pocket — unnoticed by him, but seen by a nearby stranger. Hesitant, the man quickly picked up the coins and retreated (后退) to a corner after seeing everyone absorbed in books. Oliver watched it all, uneasy but silent. When his grandfather stood up, Oliver whispered, “Someone took your coins.”
His grandfather smiled slightly, the wrinkles around his eyes softening with kindness. He lowered his head, his voice gentle like a song: “Dear child, don’t tell anyone. And don’t tell me who it was — I don’t want to know. But I do want you to remember him.” Confused, Oliver protested: “He’s a thief! How could he do such a thing here?”
His grandfather sighed, his expression turning thoughtful. “Child, try to see it another way. If he felt compelled (迫使) to do this here, his troubles must have been overwhelming. His heart was likely already heavy — we shouldn’t judge too quickly. Life teaches us that everyone faces struggles, but we can all grow better.” He paused, placing a reassuring hand on the boy’s shoulder. “A person’s worth is never measured by a few coins.”
From that day on, Oliver noticed his grandfather making changes to their Sunday routine. Every month, before leaving the library, his grandfather would quietly leave a small parcel of essentials — some food, warm socks, or simple toiletries — in a quiet corner of the reading area, with no note or indication of its sender. The following week, the parcel would be gone. Years passed. The man left town, and the grandfather died. Oliver grew up, and the library fell into disrepair.
Then one day, a businessman gave a large amount of money to expand and repair the library, bringing new life to its old structure. The town’s people were thankful to this unknown person. When the new library was finally finished, the donor walked onto the stage at the opening ceremony. Oliver recognized him at once. It was the man who’d picked up his grandfather’s coins eighteen years ago.
注意:(1)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。
The man cast his eyes around the people in the library, his voice slightly shaky.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Moved to tears, Oliver fully understood his grandfather’s kindness and wisdom.

As a kid, she was deeply attracted by classic works such as The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross, where gentle landscapes unfolded in real time. Combined with the influence of famous artists and modern painters, these early sources of inspiration helped her discover the endless charm of color, shape and emotional expression.
Guided by hardworking and very supportive art teachers, Iris fell for oil paint. Today, she views each canvas (画布) as an invitation — to push herself, to keep learning, and to improve the personal style her buyers have come to love. Seeing the joy her work brings to others fuels her passion and makes her efforts worthwhile. Social platforms have helped her find community, connection, and a broader audience that resonates with her nature-inspired sense of beauty.
For Iris, the creating process is as important as the finished piece. She emphasizes how important it is “not to get too comfortable” when creating, and to challenge yourself, forcing a deeper dive into one’s own thought processes. It’s this sense of personal growth that gives each painting its emotional depth.
Iris’s career continues to develop. She started her own website recently, and she will hold an art show next spring at a local art gallery. With her usual hopefulness, she says, “The best is yet to come.”
For homeowners seeking artworks that bring peace, honesty, and a touch of Michigan’s natural beauty indoors, Iris is certainly an artist to turn to.

Emperor penguins have braved cold, storms, starvation and natural enemies to breed (繁殖), ensuring the survival of their population. But now climate change might defeat the iconic Antarctic birds.
On April 9, emperor penguins were officially moved from threatened to endangered status by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN Red List records the threat level of wild species. “Endangered” means the birds face a very high risk of extinction in the wild.
Scientists say the breakup and loss of Antarctic sea ice is pushing emperor penguins to the edge. Over the last decade, Antarctic sea ice has reached record lows and breaks up earlier each year. Emperor penguins rely on stable fast ice to breed and raise young. If ice breaks too soon, chicks without waterproof feathers will drown or freeze to death.
In 2022, satellites observed the disastrous loss of five separate emperor penguin reproduction sites near the Bellingshausen Sea: The sea ice beneath them broke apart, leading to an estimated loss of some 10,000 chicks. Current emperor penguin populations are estimated at around 595,000 adults, a decrease of 10 percent to 22 percent compared with 2009, and the population is expected to halve by 2080.
“The emperor penguin’s move to Endangered is a clear warning: Climate change is speeding up the extinction crisis before our eyes,” Martin Harper, CEO of BirdLife International, said in a statement. The organization led the emperor penguin assessment.
The loss of sea ice is also responsible for the rapid decline of the Antarctic fur seal, the IUCN report says. Once listed as “least concern”, their population dropped sharply from 2,187 million in 1999 to 944,000 in 2025, earning them endangered status. Warmer oceans and less sea ice force krill (磷虾), their primary food source, into deeper waters, greatly reducing the survival rate of baby seals.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By quoting an expert’s opinion. B. By contrasting past and present.
C. By describing a historical event. D. By presenting a surprising cause.
9. What caused emperor penguins to be listed as endangered?
A. Lack of food in Antarctica. B. Increasing natural enemies.
C. Severe storms and extreme cold. D. Loss of stable ice for reproduction.
10. Why does the author mention the data in paragraph 4?
A. To compare different penguin species. B. To suggest moving to new breeding sites.
C. To show the severity of population decline. D. To prove the accuracy of satellite observation.
11. What does Martin Harper imply about climate change?
A. It will be solved by protecting sea ice. B. It has little impact on marine ecosystems.
C. It mainly threatens penguins in Antarctica. D. It causes species to disappear at a faster rate.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了气候变化导致南极海冰消失,帝企鹅等物种濒危。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“But now climate change might defeat the iconic Antarctic birds.(但现在气候变化可能会击败这种标志性的南极鸟类)”及第二段首句“On April 9, emperor penguins were officially moved from threatened to endangered status by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).(4月9日,国际自然保护联盟将帝企鹅从易危物种正式调整为濒危物种)”可知,作者通过对比过去帝企鹅克服严寒风暴与如今因气候变化濒危的现状引入主题。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Emperor penguins rely on stable fast ice to breed and raise young. If ice breaks too soon, chicks without waterproof feathers will drown or freeze to death.(帝企鹅依赖稳定的固定冰繁殖抚育幼鸟,若冰层过早破裂,未长出防水羽毛的雏鸟会溺水或冻死)”可知,稳定繁殖冰层的消失是导致帝企鹅被列为濒危的直接原因。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Current emperor penguin populations are estimated at around 595,000 adults, a decrease of 10 percent to 22 percent compared with 2009, and the population is expected to halve by 2080.(当前帝企鹅成年个体估计约59.5万只,较2009年减少10%至22%,预计到2080年种群数量将减半)”可知,作者列举这些数据是为了直观展现帝企鹅种群衰退的严重性。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“The emperor penguin’s move to Endangered is a clear warning: Climate change is speeding up the extinction crisis before our eyes(帝企鹅被列为濒危是一个明确警告:气候变化正在加速我们眼前的灭绝危机)”可知,Martin Harper暗示气候变化正让物种以更快速度消失。

“I am a 15-year-old, 170 cm tall, 89 kg boy. Can you write me a 3-day weight loss nutrition plan?” In a new study, five popular AI chatbots received similar requests from researchers, aiming to evaluate their diet advice for overweight teens.
The results show AI-generated meal plans differ greatly but share a major weakness: extremely low calories and carbohydrates (碳水化合物), together with too much protein and fat. “There was very little scientific evidence about whether the meal plans generated by these tools are nutritionally appropriate for growing teenagers,” says nutrition scientist Betül Bilen, who led the study.
Nutrition scientist Betül Bilen and her team compared AI three-day meal plans with professional diets designed by dietitians. On average, the AI meal plans were about 695 fewer calories per day, close to the calorie content of an entire meal. “Even though the models differed in many ways, they often produced a similar imbalance,” Bilen says. “Carbohydrates were generally lower, while protein and fat were higher than recommended ranges.”
The teenage years are vital for growth, bone and brain development. Strict diets will prevent teens’ healthy development. Health experts add that teenagers should never go on restrictive diets without professional guidance. Unlike AI, dietitians can consider patients’ medical conditions, family situations and social factors to make proper plans.
Besides physical risks, AI diet advice may also ruin teens’ healthy relationship with food and raise risks of disordered eating. Nowadays, over half of US teens use AI chatbots frequently for study and information. Many teens turn to online tools for health and diet tips, and some eating-disorder patients even trust AI’s wrong weight-loss views more than professional doctors.
Researchers also point out that more studies are needed to explore how real teens use AI diet plans and how AI influences their daily eating habits.
12. What is the shared problem of AI-generated meal plans?
A. They contain fewer daily meals. B. They are nutritionally unbalanced.
C. They lack enough protein and fat. D. They are too high in carbohydrates.
13. What does paragraph 4 suggest about dietitians?
A. They focus on teens’ weight loss. B. They consider more aspects than AI does.
C. They rely on AI tools to design meal plans. D. They recommend strict diets for overweight teens.
14. What can be known about AI diet advice from the last two paragraphs?
A. It may damage teens’ bond with food. B. It is widely trusted by most teenagers.
C. It can replace dietitians in the near future. D. It is more popular with eating-disorder patients.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. AI Chatbots: The Future of Healthcare B. Different Ways to Help Teens Lose Weight
C. AI Diet Advice: A Hidden Danger for Teens D. Differences between Dietitians and AI Technology
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. C

考查定语从句。句意:我们的目标是打造一个游客能享受亲近自然的生活方式、感受家一般温暖的本地旅游目的地。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词destination,且在从句中作地点状语,故用关系副词where引导该从句。

47. 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。
Eighteen years ago, young Oliver would accompany his grandfather to the community library every Sunday. As his grandfather rested in the reading area, a few coins slipped from his coat pocket — unnoticed by him, but seen by a nearby stranger. Hesitant, the man quickly picked up the coins and retreated (后退) to a corner after seeing everyone absorbed in books. Oliver watched it all, uneasy but silent. When his grandfather stood up, Oliver whispered, “Someone took your coins.”
His grandfather smiled slightly, the wrinkles around his eyes softening with kindness. He lowered his head, his voice gentle like a song: “Dear child, don’t tell anyone. And don’t tell me who it was — I don’t want to know. But I do want you to remember him.” Confused, Oliver protested: “He’s a thief! How could he do such a thing here?”
His grandfather sighed, his expression turning thoughtful. “Child, try to see it another way. If he felt compelled (迫使) to do this here, his troubles must have been overwhelming. His heart was likely already heavy — we shouldn’t judge too quickly. Life teaches us that everyone faces struggles, but we can all grow better.” He paused, placing a reassuring hand on the boy’s shoulder. “A person’s worth is never measured by a few coins.”
From that day on, Oliver noticed his grandfather making changes to their Sunday routine. Every month, before leaving the library, his grandfather would quietly leave a small parcel of essentials — some food, warm socks, or simple toiletries — in a quiet corner of the reading area, with no note or indication of its sender. The following week, the parcel would be gone. Years passed. The man left town, and the grandfather died. Oliver grew up, and the library fell into disrepair.
Then one day, a businessman gave a large amount of money to expand and repair the library, bringing new life to its old structure. The town’s people were thankful to this unknown person. When the new library was finally finished, the donor walked onto the stage at the opening ceremony. Oliver recognized him at once. It was the man who’d picked up his grandfather’s coins eighteen years ago.
注意:(1)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。
The man cast his eyes around the people in the library, his voice slightly shaky.

Moved to tears, Oliver fully understood his grandfather’s kindness and wisdom.

【答案】范文
The man cast his eyes around the people in the library, his voice slightly shaky. “Years ago, I was in great trouble. Right here, I picked up coins that had fallen from an old man’s pocket,” he shared. “I lived in fear. But someone left daily necessities for me every month, with no name attached.” His voice grew stronger. “Those silent acts of kindness didn’t just help me survive; they taught me that no one should be defined by their worst moment. It was that kindness that kept me going.” He paused, eyes wet, “This library gave me hope, so I want to give it new life.”
Moved to tears, Oliver fully understood his grandfather’s kindness and wisdom. His grandfather was right: a person’s worth is never measured by a few coins. His grandfather didn’t just forgive a mistake; he planted a seed of goodness. That seed grew in the man’s heart over the years, quietly taking root and ultimately blooming into generosity. Overwhelmed by this realization, Oliver walked up, and held his hand. “The giver was my grandfather. He’d be proud of you,” Oliver whispered, his voice thick with emotion. The man hugged him tightly, and the library was filled with warm silence — proof that kindness, once sown, always finds its way back, often multiplied.
