Cycling Without Age bridges that gap, pairing seniors with younger volunteers. These young people are called “pilots.” They ride alongside seniors, ensuring every journey is safe, joyful, and shared. Take Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence for example. Despite the 20 years’ gap in age, they have been riding together for years. 56-year-old Lawrence pilots the trishaw (三轮车) while Lyon enjoys the ride. Every week, the two explore their town. Lyon would ask about its streets and history, while Lawrence was happy to share what he knew. “This program has brought me a meaningful connection with an older generation, which means a lot to me since my parents are no longer with me,” Lawrence says. That same spirit inspires John Boettner, who leads a local Cycling Without Age chapter in Santa Barbara. He has one gentle rule for his passengers. “People always ask, ‘How much does a ride cost?’” he says. “I tell them, ‘Just smile and wave to everyone we pass.’” Boettner cherishes red lights, because they are little windows for connection, a chance for his passengers to exchange smiles and stories with strangers on the street. “Driving the trishaw is our best advertisement,” he adds. “When a 101-year-old woman holds your hand tight and says thank you, it’s a moment you’ll never forget.” Ole Kassow, who founded Cycling Without Age, sees these moments as part of something greater. “What makes these rides so powerful is how riding softens the lines between generations and helps people form new friendships,” he says. “I believe that friendship, or the ability to open your heart and care for others at any age, brings energy and warmth to life, making it richer and better.” 4. What was Lawrence’s greatest gain from Cycling Without Age? A. A clear goal. B. A brave heart. C. A curious mind. D. A treasured bond. 5. What can we infer from paragraph 3? A. Riders are enriched by giving rides. B. The program needs to be advertised. C. Passengers have to pay for the rides D. Red lights teach people patience and care. 6. What does Ole Kassow emphasize in his words? A. The pleasure of cycling. B. The value of the program. C. The power of young people. D. The definition of a good life. 7. Which of the following best matches the idea in the passage? A. A sweet friendship comes from trust. B. A heart that connects is always young. C. Don’t go through life, grow through life. D. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍“无年龄障碍骑行”项目，该项目让年轻人陪伴老年人骑行，促进代际联结并传递温暖与友谊。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的““This program has brought me a meaningful connection with an older generation, which means a lot to me since my parents are no longer with me,” Lawrence says.(劳伦斯说：“这个项目让我与老一辈建立了有意义的联系，这对我来说意义重大，因为我的父母已经不在了。”)”可知，劳伦斯从该项目中获得的最大收获是与老一辈建立的珍贵联结，这种联结对他而言意义非凡。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Boettner cherishes red lights, because they are little windows for connection, a chance for his passengers to exchange smiles and stories with strangers on the street. “Driving the trishaw is our best advertisement,’ he adds. ‘When a 101-year-old woman holds your hand tight and says thank you, it’s a moment you’ll never forget.”(博特纳很珍惜红灯时刻，因为它们是联结的小窗口，是让乘客们与街上的陌生人交换微笑和故事的机会。“驾驶三轮车是我们最好的广告，”他补充道。“当一位101岁的老妇人紧紧握住你的手说谢谢时，那是一个你永远不会忘记的时刻。”)”可推断，博特纳在提供骑行服务的过程中，通过与乘客、陌生人的联结获得了温暖与感动，即提供骑行的人也从中获得了精神上的丰富。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Ole Kassow, who founded Cycling Without Age, sees these moments as part of something greater. “What makes these rides so powerful is how riding softens the lines between generations and helps people form new friendships,” he says. “I believe that friendship, or the ability to open your heart and care for others at any age, brings energy and warmth to life, making it richer and better.”(“无年龄障碍骑行”的创始人奥勒·卡索将这些时刻视为更伟大事物的一部分。“让这些骑行如此有力量的是，骑行拉近了代际之间的距离，帮助人们建立新的友谊，”他说。“我相信，友谊，或者说在任何年龄都能敞开心扉、关心他人的能力，能给生活带来能量和温暖，让生活变得更丰富、更美好。”)可知，奥勒·卡索重点强调了该项目的价值——拉近代际距离、建立友谊、给生活带来温暖与丰富。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合最后一段中““What makes these rides so powerful is how riding softens the lines between generations and helps people form new friendships,” he says. “I believe that friendship, or the ability to open your heart and care for others at any age, brings energy and warmth to life, making it richer and better.”(他说：“让这些骑行如此有意义的是，它拉近了代际之间的距离，帮助人们建立新的友谊。我相信，友谊，或是在任何年纪都能敞开心扉、关爱他人的能力，能为生活带来活力与温暖，让人生更加丰盈美好。”)”可知，文章围绕“无年龄障碍骑行”项目展开，核心是该项目通过骑行打破代际隔阂，促进不同年龄的人之间的联结与友谊，传递温暖与善意，强调“联结”的力量。B项“联结在一起的心永远年轻”与本文主题相匹配。故选B项。 阅读理解 In America, we have a thing called stand-up comedy. This popular form of entertainment consists of a comedian standing up at the front of a club, holding a microphone, and telling jokes. Of course, comedy is popular in Chinese culture as well, but the performances are quite different from the style in the US. In China, it’s called cross-talk, which usually involves two guys engaging in an entertaining dialogue. It’s believed that cross-talk came into being in the Qing Dynasty as a bit of a by-product of the imitation shows that were a popular form of entertainment in the Song Dynasty. After the PRC was established in 1949, this comedic art became more and more popular. Today, it’s still heavily featured in the CCTV New Year’s Gala programmes in China. The 1990s was the golden age of cross-talk; even foreigners studied the art of cross-talk. Mark Roswell, a Canadian named Da Shan in Chinese was relatively unknown in his native land but was a superstar in China. At the turn of the century, cross-talk began to decline, and many well-known actors left the stage. There are four skills that are essential in cross-talk: speaking, imitating, teasing, and singing. Most of the time, it is performed with two actors—one serves as the lead actor while the other plays a support role. However, sometimes it is performed simply as a one-man show, and at other times there are several actors. In order to criticize something, the humor involved in cross-talk is satirical. 8. What’s the difference between American stand-up comedy and Chinese cross-talk? A. Chinese cross-talk actors don’t use a microphone. B. American stand-up comedy actors are all men. C. Chinese cross-talk is more liked by Canadians. D. American stand-up comedy is only a one-man show. 9. Which word can best summarize Paragraph 2? A. History. B. Future. C. Features. D. Difference. 10. What can we know about Mark Roswell? A. He was an American stand-up comedian. B. He was very popular with Canadians. C. He was a famous cross-talker in China. D. He left the stage in the early 1990s. 11. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “satirical” in Paragraph 3? A. Acid-tongued. B. Good-tempered. C. Warm-hearted. D. Smooth-tongued. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了中国传统曲艺相声的起源、发展和文化影响力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This popular form of entertainment consists of a comedian standing up at the front of a club, holding a microphone, and telling jokes. (这种流行的娱乐形式包括一个喜剧演员站在俱乐部前面，拿着麦克风讲笑话。)”可知，美国脱口秀节目往往只是一个人在表演。故选D。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“It’s believed that cross-talk came into being in the Qing Dynasty as a bit of a by-product of the imitation shows that were a popular form of entertainment in the Song Dynasty. After the PRC was established in 1949, this comedic art became more and more popular. Today, it’s still heavily featured in the CCTV New Year’s Gala programmes in China. The 1990s was the golden age of cross-talk; even foreigners studied the art of cross- talk. Mark Roswell, a Canadian named Da Shan in Chinese was relatively unknown in his native land but was a superstar in China. At the turn of the century, cross-talk began to decline, and many well-known actors left the stage. (人们认为相声是在清朝产生的，是模仿表演的副产品，模仿表演是宋代流行的娱乐形式。1949年中华人民共和国成立后，这种喜剧艺术越来越流行。时至今日，它仍然是中国中央电视台春节联欢晚会的重要节目。20世纪90年代是相声的黄金时代；甚至外国人也学习相声艺术。马克·罗斯威尔是一位加拿大人，中文名字叫大山，在他的祖国相对默默无闻，但在中国却是一位超级明星。世纪之交，相声开始衰落，许多知名演员离开了舞台。)”可知，第二段主要讲述了中国相声的起源、发展、繁荣和衰退的历史，故history能够概括本段内容。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“even foreigners studied the art of cross- talk. Mark Roswell, a Canadian named Da Shan in Chinese was relatively unknown in his native land but was a superstar in China. (甚至外国人也学习相声艺术。马克·罗斯威尔是一位加拿大人，中文名字叫大山，在他的祖国相对默默无闻，但在中国却是一位超级明星。)”可知，Mark Roswell是一位在中国很著名的相声演员。故选C。 【11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“In order to criticize something, the humor involved in cross-talk is satirical. (为了批评某些东西，相声中的幽默是satirical的。)”可知，相声为了达到批评的效果，采用的幽默应是讽刺性的语言，所以satirical的意思应该是“讥讽的，刻薄的 ”，和选项A意思一致。故选A。 When geneticist Elizabeth Clare placed 70 small filters (过滤器) around England’s Hamerton Zoo Park last year, she intended for the traps to collect DNA from the sky. What she didn’t know, however, was that led by Kristine Bohmann, another team was conducting a similar experiment in the Copenhagen Zoo. Wild animals are usually studied indirectly through clues that they leave behind, like fur, feathers or waste. That means certain animals - especially the small, fast and shy ones - are often missed in traditional wildlife surveys. Because all living organisms shed DNA into the air of the environment they live in, the two research groups hoped they could use those genetic traces, called eDNA, to find out what animals frequent an area. One of the biggest challenges of working with airborne eDNA is avoiding contamination (污染) from other sources, which could muddle (弄乱) results.“The zoo becomes this perfect environment where we know everything that we’re detecting has only one possible source,” says Clare. “My lab doesn’t handle tiger DNA ever, so if we’re detecting a tiger, there is no other source.” To see if eDNA could be detected in the air, both teams placed filters in different zoo enclosures, including both indoor and outdoor exhibits. Bohmann’s group collected 40 air samples in three locations around the Copenhagen Zoo. They also tested three different air sampling devices. Clare’s group took a similar approach but instead used just one type of air pump. Though both groups were optimistic that their idea could work, they were still shocked at their results. In the 40 samples that Bohmann’s group collected, they successfully found 49 species including mammals, birds, reptiles and fish. “We had no idea that this would actually work so well,” says Bohmann. Clare’s team also identified DNA from more than two dozen different species of animals from their samples, including tigers, lemurs and dingoes. “It’s really exciting looking at how both of these papers have produced the same results,” says Mark Johnson, who studies eDNA at Texas Tech University. While hopeful about the future of airborne eDNA, Johnson notes huge leaps need to be made before the techniques used in the zoo can be applied in the field. Collecting eDNA in the wild adds a host of new variables. “The next step is to take it from the zoo into the natural environment and see what we find there,” says Johnson. 12. What did the two teams of scientists try to do? A. To study zoo animals’ DNA in detail. B. To detect animals from DNA in the air. C. To improve zoo environments for animals. D. To compare DNAs of different zoo animals. 13. Why did the scientists choose the zoo for their study? A. Because the air there was much cleaner. B. Because there were many useful resources in it. C. Because they expected to find a tiger DNA there. D. Because it could ensure the accuracy of the results. 14. What can we learn about the two groups’ findings? A. They needed to be further proved. B. They depended greatly on the devices. C. They were far beyond the scientists’ expectations. D. They failed to support the scientists’ idea about eDNA. 15. What’s Mark Johnson’s attitude towards the future of eDNA? A. Cautiously optimistic. B. Mildly doubtful. C. Somewhat opposed. D. Completely supportive. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了两组科学家用空气eDNA检测动物的研究。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Because all living organisms shed DNA into the air of the environment they live in, the two research groups hoped they could use those genetic traces, called eDNA, to find out what animals frequent an area. (由于所有生物都会将DNA释放到它们生活的环境空气中，这两个研究小组希望他们可以利用这些被称为环境DNA (eDNA)的遗传痕迹来查明哪些动物频繁出现在某个区域。)”可知，两个研究小组希望利用这些被称为eDNA的遗传痕迹来弄清楚哪些动物经常出没于某个区域，也就是从空气中的DNA检测动物。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“One of the biggest challenges of working with airborne eDNA is avoiding contamination (污染) from other sources, which could muddle (弄乱) results.“The zoo becomes this perfect environment where we know everything that we’re detecting has only one possible source,” says Clare. (处理空气中的eDNA最大的挑战之一是避免来自其他来源的污染，这可能会混淆结果。“动物园成为这样一个完美的环境，在这里我们知道我们检测到的一切只有一个可能的来源”，Clare说。)” 可知，在动物园里检测到的一切都只有一个可能的来源，能确保结果的准确性。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Though both groups were optimistic that their idea could work, they were still shocked at their results. In the 40 samples that Bohmann’s group collected, they successfully found 49 species including mammals, birds, reptiles and fish. “We had no idea that this would actually work so well,” says Bohmann. (尽管两个小组都对其想法能够奏效持乐观态度，但他们的结果仍然让他们感到震惊。在Bohmann小组收集的40个样本中，他们成功地找到了49个物种，包括哺乳动物、鸟类、爬行动物和鱼类。“我们完全没想到这会如此成功”，Bohmann说。)” 可知，结果远远超出了科学家的预期。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““It’s really exciting looking at how both of these papers have produced the same results,” says Mark Johnson, who studies eDNA at Texas Tech University. While hopeful about the future of airborne eDNA, Johnson notes huge leaps need to be made before the techniques used in the zoo can be applied in the field. Collecting eDNA in the wild adds a host of new variables. “The next step is to take it from the zoo into the natural environment and see what we find there,” says Johnson. (“看到这两篇论文如何产生了相同的结果真是令人兴奋”，德克萨斯理工大学研究eDNA的Mark Johnson说。虽然对未来空气中的eDNA充满希望，Johnson指出，在将动物园中使用的技术应用于野外之前，还需要做出巨大的飞跃。在野外收集eDNA增加了一系列新的变量。“下一步是从动物园转移到自然环境中去看看我们能找到什么”，Johnson说。)” 可知，Mark Johnson看到结果很兴奋，但认为这项技术仍需要巨大飞跃，说明他的态度是谨慎乐观的。故选A。 Music Education and Its Impact on Students’ Learning Music education can greatly help students learn. Research from the University of California shows that students with musical training score about 20% higher in language and math tests. It is not just an art form but a powerful educational tool. ___16___ Here are some of the key way it impacts students’ academic and thinking abilities. Language Skill Development Learning songs like You Are My Sunshine exposes students to vocabulary beyond textbooks. Words like “sunshine” and “dear” are naturally acquired through repetitive melodies, which strengthen pronunciation and grammar awareness. ___17___ For example, Some pop songs introduce modern slang (俚语) like “self-made” and “daydream”, while classical lyrics (歌词) teach formal expressions. This linguistic diversity strengthens communication abilities. Memory Improvement ___18___ Have you ever suddenly recalled forgotten songs from childhood? Scientists call this the “melodic memory effect”. Catchy melodies (旋律) activate the brain’s hippocampus — the key memory center. Educational songs like the ABC song use beats to make facts unforgettable. When preparing performances, students memorize rhythms and volume changes — skill transferable to studying history or math. Mental Power Increase Music works both sides of the brain. ___19___ When you play the piano, for example, the left brain works on reading musical notes (logic), while the right brain focuses on expressing emotions (creativity). Additionally, reading music trains pattern recognition — a skill used in solving math problems. Group performances also teach teamwork and quick thinking. In conclusion, music education plays a vital role in learning. It supports academic growth and thinking skills. ___20___ A. But how exactly does it improve learning? B. Group singing reduces classroom participation. C. It provides rich language input through varied songs. D. A common experience reveals music’s memory power. E.

In fourth grade, my school had an orchestra program, and I eagerly signed up to learn the violin. I loved the idea of being in the orchestra and went to the music lessons every week. The orchestra teacher, Mr. Black, was strict. He told us that if we damaged our instruments, we’d be kicked out of the program because the school couldn’t afford the expensive pieces of the instrument. Unfortunately, I wasn’t very good at the violin. One day, while practicing, the bridge of my violin flew off and the strings broke. Scared of Mr. Black’s reaction, I tried to fix it myself with some glue. But when he saw my crooked bridge, he told me I couldn’t be in the orchestra anymore. Instead, he suggested I join the singing club. I did switch to the chorus club, where I stayed, thinking I had found my place. I enjoyed singing with others, even though I didn’t have a great voice. And as luck would have it, the elementary school sing club automatically fed into the junior high chorus. We had lots of chances to give performances. Instead of a violinist, I became a singer in an orchestra. Don’t be confused. My singing was not outstanding, but in the midst of so many others, I could blend (融合). One Monday after a big performance, my English teacher Ms. Rose asked if anyone was interested in writing an article about his or her singing experience. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1.

The following year I became the editor of the school newspaper, considering that I had found my calling. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1. For some reason, I raised my hand instantly. Ms. Rose looked surprised but pleased. She handed me a notebook and asked me to write down my thoughts and feelings about the performance. I was thrilled. That night, I poured my heart into the article, describing how I had felt nervous before the performance but how singing with my friends had made me feel brave and alive. When I finished, I realized that I had enjoyed writing more than I had ever enjoyed singing. The next day, I handed in the article, and Ms. Rose told me that it was excellent and that she would publish it. Paragraph 2. The following year I became the editor of the school newspaper, considering that I had found my calling. I loved every minute of it, from interviewing students and teachers to editing articles and designing layouts. I discovered that I had a talent for words and a passion for storytelling. Mr. Black, who had once told me I couldn’t play the violin, even came to one of my newspaper’s events and praised my work. I realized that sometimes, when one door closes, another opens, and it’s up to us to walk through it and find our true path. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者因小提琴技艺不佳退出管弦乐队，转而加入合唱团，后因一次写作机会发现自己写作天赋，最终找到人生新方向的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“出于某种原因，我立刻举起了手。”可知，第一段可描写作者举手后，Ms. Rose让作者写关于表演的文章，作者认真完成并得到了她的表扬。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二年，考虑到我找到了自己的使命，我成为了校报的编辑。”可知，第二段可描写作者成为校报编辑后的工作情况以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：举手——被要求写文章——认真完成并享受写作——文章被表扬——成为校报编辑——热爱工作并发现天赋——感悟 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①递给：hand/pass/deliver ②完成：finish/complete ③意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类： ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②兴奋的：thrilled/excited 【点睛】【高分句型1】When I finished, I realized that I had enjoyed writing more than I had ever enjoyed singing.(运用了When引导的状语从句，that引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】Mr. Black, who had once told me I couldn’t play the violin, even came to one of my newspaper’s events and praised my work.(运用了who引导的定语从句，省略that引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年福建省闽侯县高三下学期命题趋势预测（一） 英语 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号框涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号框。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Marine Science Exploration Camp at BGSU Are you curious about the mysteries of marine ecosystems?

B For many older adults, the simple joy of a bike ride feels out of reach. Cycling Without Age bridges that gap, pairing seniors with younger volunteers. These young people are called “pilots.” They ride alongside seniors, ensuring every journey is safe, joyful, and shared. Take Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence for example. Despite the 20 years’ gap in age, they have been riding together for years. 56-year-old Lawrence pilots the trishaw (三轮车) while Lyon enjoys the ride. Every week, the two explore their town. Lyon would ask about its streets and history, while Lawrence was happy to share what he knew. “This program has brought me a meaningful connection with an older generation, which means a lot to me since my parents are no longer with me,” Lawrence says. That same spirit inspires John Boettner, who leads a local Cycling Without Age chapter in Santa Barbara. He has one gentle rule for his passengers. “People always ask, ‘How much does a ride cost?’” he says. “I tell them, ‘Just smile and wave to everyone we pass.’” Boettner cherishes red lights, because they are little windows for connection, a chance for his passengers to exchange smiles and stories with strangers on the street. “Driving the trishaw is our best advertisement,” he adds. “When a 101-year-old woman holds your hand tight and says thank you, it’s a moment you’ll never forget.” Ole Kassow, who founded Cycling Without Age, sees these moments as part of something greater. “What makes these rides so powerful is how riding softens the lines between generations and helps people form new friendships,” he says. “I believe that friendship, or the ability to open your heart and care for others at any age, brings energy and warmth to life, making it richer and better.” 4. What was Lawrence’s greatest gain from Cycling Without Age? A. A clear goal. B. A brave heart. C. A curious mind. D. A treasured bond. 5. What can we infer from paragraph 3? A. Riders are enriched by giving rides. B. The program needs to be advertised. C. Passengers have to pay for the rides D. Red lights teach people patience and care. 6. What does Ole Kassow emphasize in his words? A. The pleasure of cycling. B. The value of the program. C. The power of young people. D. The definition of a good life. 7. Which of the following best matches the idea in the passage? A. A sweet friendship comes from trust. B. A heart that connects is always young. C. Don’t go through life, grow through life. D. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. 阅读理解 In America, we have a thing called stand-up comedy. This popular form of entertainment consists of a comedian standing up at the front of a club, holding a microphone, and telling jokes. Of course, comedy is popular in Chinese culture as well, but the performances are quite different from the style in the US. In China, it’s called cross-talk, which usually involves two guys engaging in an entertaining dialogue. It’s believed that cross-talk came into being in the Qing Dynasty as a bit of a by-product of the imitation shows that were a popular form of entertainment in the Song Dynasty. After the PRC was established in 1949, this comedic art became more and more popular. Today, it’s still heavily featured in the CCTV New Year’s Gala programmes in China. The 1990s was the golden age of cross-talk; even foreigners studied the art of cross-talk. Mark Roswell, a Canadian named Da Shan in Chinese was relatively unknown in his native land but was a superstar in China. At the turn of the century, cross-talk began to decline, and many well-known actors left the stage. There are four skills that are essential in cross-talk: speaking, imitating, teasing, and singing. Most of the time, it is performed with two actors—one serves as the lead actor while the other plays a support role. However, sometimes it is performed simply as a one-man show, and at other times there are several actors. In order to criticize something, the humor involved in cross-talk is satirical. 8. What’s the difference between American stand-up comedy and Chinese cross-talk? A. Chinese cross-talk actors don’t use a microphone. B. American stand-up comedy actors are all men. C. Chinese cross-talk is more liked by Canadians. D. American stand-up comedy is only a one-man show. 9. Which word can best summarize Paragraph 2? A. History. B. Future. C. Features. D. Difference. 10. What can we know about Mark Roswell? A. He was an American stand-up comedian. B. He was very popular with Canadians. C. He was a famous cross-talker in China. D. He left the stage in the early 1990s. 11. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “satirical” in Paragraph 3? A. Acid-tongued. B. Good-tempered. C. Warm-hearted. D. Smooth-tongued. When geneticist Elizabeth Clare placed 70 small filters (过滤器) around England’s Hamerton Zoo Park last year, she intended for the traps to collect DNA from the sky. What she didn’t know, however, was that led by Kristine Bohmann, another team was conducting a similar experiment in the Copenhagen Zoo. Wild animals are usually studied indirectly through clues that they leave behind, like fur, feathers or waste. That means certain animals - especially the small, fast and shy ones - are often missed in traditional wildlife surveys. Because all living organisms shed DNA into the air of the environment they live in, the two research groups hoped they could use those genetic traces, called eDNA, to find out what animals frequent an area. One of the biggest challenges of working with airborne eDNA is avoiding contamination (污染) from other sources, which could muddle (弄乱) results.“The zoo becomes this perfect environment where we know everything that we’re detecting has only one possible source,” says Clare. “My lab doesn’t handle tiger DNA ever, so if we’re detecting a tiger, there is no other source.” To see if eDNA could be detected in the air, both teams placed filters in different zoo enclosures, including both indoor and outdoor exhibits. Bohmann’s group collected 40 air samples in three locations around the Copenhagen Zoo. They also tested three different air sampling devices. Clare’s group took a similar approach but instead used just one type of air pump. Though both groups were optimistic that their idea could work, they were still shocked at their results. In the 40 samples that Bohmann’s group collected, they successfully found 49 species including mammals, birds, reptiles and fish. “We had no idea that this would actually work so well,” says Bohmann. Clare’s team also identified DNA from more than two dozen different species of animals from their samples, including tigers, lemurs and dingoes. “It’s really exciting looking at how both of these papers have produced the same results,” says Mark Johnson, who studies eDNA at Texas Tech University. While hopeful about the future of airborne eDNA, Johnson notes huge leaps need to be made before the techniques used in the zoo can be applied in the field. Collecting eDNA in the wild adds a host of new variables. “The next step is to take it from the zoo into the natural environment and see what we find there,” says Johnson. 12. What did the two teams of scientists try to do? A. To study zoo animals’ DNA in detail. B. To detect animals from DNA in the air. C. To improve zoo environments for animals. D. To compare DNAs of different zoo animals. 13. Why did the scientists choose the zoo for their study? A. Because the air there was much cleaner. B. Because there were many useful resources in it. C. Because they expected to find a tiger DNA there. D. Because it could ensure the accuracy of the results. 14. What can we learn about the two groups’ findings? A. They needed to be further proved. B. They depended greatly on the devices. C. They were far beyond the scientists’ expectations. D. They failed to support the scientists’ idea about eDNA. 15. What’s Mark Johnson’s attitude towards the future of eDNA? A. Cautiously optimistic. B. Mildly doubtful. C. Somewhat opposed. D. Completely supportive. Music Education and Its Impact on Students’ Learning Music education can greatly help students learn. Research from the University of California shows that students with musical training score about 20% higher in language and math tests. It is not just an art form but a powerful educational tool. ___16___ Here are some of the key way it impacts students’ academic and thinking abilities. Language Skill Development Learning songs like You Are My Sunshine exposes students to vocabulary beyond textbooks. Words like “sunshine” and “dear” are naturally acquired through repetitive melodies, which strengthen pronunciation and grammar awareness. ___17___ For example, Some pop songs introduce modern slang (俚语) like “self-made” and “daydream”, while classical lyrics (歌词) teach formal expressions. This linguistic diversity strengthens communication abilities. Memory Improvement ___18___ Have you ever suddenly recalled forgotten songs from childhood? Scientists call this the “melodic memory effect”. Catchy melodies (旋律) activate the brain’s hippocampus — the key memory center. Educational songs like the ABC song use beats to make facts unforgettable. When preparing performances, students memorize rhythms and volume changes — skill transferable to studying history or math. Mental Power Increase Music works both sides of the brain. ___19___ When you play the piano, for example, the left brain works on reading musical notes (logic), while the right brain focuses on expressing emotions (creativity). Additionally, reading music trains pattern recognition — a skill used in solving math problems. Group performances also teach teamwork and quick thinking. In conclusion, music education plays a vital role in learning. It supports academic growth and thinking skills. ___20___ A. But how exactly does it improve learning? B. Group singing reduces classroom participation. C. It provides rich language input through varied songs. D. A common experience reveals music’s memory power. E. Music theory classes improve mathematical reasoning. F. Brain research shows it uses the entire brain effectively. G. Such a combined method makes learning effective and enjoyable.

In fourth grade, my school had an orchestra program, and I eagerly signed up to learn the violin. I loved the idea of being in the orchestra and went to the music lessons every week.
