Reading shouldn't be a one-way street. With this Smart Annotation (批注) Kit, you move from being a passive reader to an active thinker.
This kit helps you:
Capture your thoughts-write down questions, connections, and ideas as they come to you.
Remember more--research shows that handwriting improves memory and comprehension.
Read with purpose--use colors and notes to track themes, characters, or key arguments.
Make books yours-turn every book you read into a personal record of your thinking journey.
Whether you're studying for an exam, preparing for a book club, or just reading for pleasure, this kit gives you the tools to engage deeply with every page.
What's Included
· 3 color-coded highlighters (yellow, pink, blue)
· 2 fine-tip pens (black, red)
· 50 repositionable sticky notes
· 1 quick-start guide
How to Use
Step 1: Read actively. As you read, underline key sentences or put question marks next to confusing parts.
Step 2: Add your marks. Use different colors for different purposes. For example: yellow indicates main ideas; pink marks surprising or important facts; blue records personal reflections or unresolved questions.
Step 3: Write short notes. Brief phrases such as "definition,""contrast," or "see page 23" are written next to relevant passages.
Step 4: Review your notes. After each chapter, revisit annotations to strengthen long-term memory and identify patterns across the text.
Limitations
Permanent markers should not be used on borrowed or library copies. For those unwilling to write directly on pages, repositionable sticky notes offer an alternative. The kit contains small parts and must be kept away from children under three years of age.

Throwing oneself in native plants may not seem like a recipe for success as a social media influencer. But meet Kyle Lybarger.
It all started with what Lybarger now recognizes as a terrible mistake. About a decade ago, he was managing a private forest where the owner let him hunt. The land included an open area, where he decided to plant food for wildlife. He sprayed (喷洒) it with herbicide (除草剂), put down seed and cut down some trees to let in more light. In the dry, shallow soil, the seeds didn't take. But around the edges of the area, where he hadn't sprayed or seeded, the additional sunlight released a beautiful surprise. "I came back up the next summer and it was just like color everywhere, really crazy-looking plant," says Lybarger. "I feel like I should know what this plant is."
After he posted photos of the flowers on Facebook, an expert pointed out some rare and endangered species. Lybarger realized that he had killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species that were ideal for attracting wildlife, all in order to plant two or three species that weren't part of the native ecosystem.
Lybarger, a forester by training, found a mission: to save these native species. In a state where more than 90% of the land is privately owned, that has meant knocking on doors to speak with landowners who are unknowing hosts to rare plants. One morning last spring found Lybarger chatting with Pat Eaton, who has a spot of endangered glade cress growing on her family's property. A few miles away, Lybarger pointed out another endangered species that his social media followers had been instrumental in protecting.
Lybarger thinks his biggest contribution comes through education on social media, influencing people to grow the native plants that best support declining pollinators (传粉昆虫) and other insects. "One person, one yard, one-tenth of an acre can make a bigger difference than you think," he says.
24. What was Lybarger's mistake?
A. He killed native species.
B. He removed the soil.
C. He posted photos online.
D. He mixed seeds up.
25. Why did Lybarger visit landowners?
A. To purchase their properties.
B. To protect private land plants.
C.To teach planting skills.
D. To seek hunting permission.
26. What does Lybarger do through social media?
A. Keep track of his daily work.
B. Build up his reputation.
C. Educate people about local plants.
D. Offer professional training.
27. What is the text about?
A. A forester's mission shift.
B. A herbicide spraying method.
C. Endangered plant species.
D. Tips for becoming an influencer.

Fish genetically engineered to glow blue, green, or red under blacklight have been a big hit among aquarium lovers for years. But the fluorescent(发光的) pet is not restricted to glass displays anymore. The red- and green-glowing versions, more vivid than normal zebrafish even in natural light, have escaped fish farms in southeastern Brazil and are multiplying(繁殖) in creeks in the Atlantic Forest, a new study shows. It is a rare example of a transgenic animal accidentally becoming established in nature, and a concern for biologists, who worry the transgenic fish could threaten the local fauna(动物群)in one of the most bio-diverse spots on the planet.
In the 2000s, companies saw the potential of the fish as pets. Trademarked as Glofish, they became the world's first genetically engineered species to be commercially available. Now, they are one of the first to escape and thrive in nature. Early on, environmentalists worried about the possibility, and Glofish sales were banned in some U.S. states such as California and several countries- including Brazil. In 2014, a single Glofish was spotted in canals of Florida. But it had not multiplied, probably because native predators such as the eastern mosquitofish and the largemouth bass ate the intruder, said the biologist who spotted the fish, Quenton Tuckett. Unlike Florida, Glofish thrived in the Brazilian creeks. In 2017 he and colleagues began to survey five creeks in three cities, finding transgenic zebrafish in all of them.
The Glofish are reproducing all year round, with a peak during the rainy season- just as native zebrafish do in Asia. But the transgenic fish seem to achieve sexual maturity earlier than their forebears, which allows them to reproduce more and spread faster. The invaders are also eating well: a diversified diet of native insects, algae, and zooplankton.
Despite Brazil's ban on sales of the fish, stores all over the country sell them as pets. They may soon colonize other parts of the country. Tuckett says it should be "a wake-up call". For now, the glowing fish "could be considered little weeds growing up out of the concrete", Tuckett says, but points out that even little weeds can grow to cause a lot of damage.
28. What is the concern of the biologists?
A. The ecological impacts are unpredictable.
B. The transgenic fish accidentally became established in nature.
C. The transgenic fish could do harm to the local animals.
D. The transgenic fish are more vivid than normal zebrafish in natural light.
29. According to paragraph 2, what can be inferred about tilapia?
A. They were kept as pets before the 2000s.
B. They were prohibited from sales throughout the U.S.
C. They were found in all of the Brazilian creeks in 2017.
D. They didn't thrive in Florida probably due to the local enemies.
30. What does the underlined phrase "The invaders" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The Glofish.
B. The native zebrafish.
C. The largemouth bass.
D. The eastern mosquitofish.
31. What's Tuckett's attitude towards Glofish?
A. Indifferent.
B. Ambiguous.
C. Cautious.
D. Supportive.
D
Parasitic weeds known as "plant life-stealers", have long troubled global agriculture, taking nutrients from crops and causing massive yield losses. Among them, Striga, a harmful parasite weed, attacks over 70 million hectares of farmland annually, threatening the food security of 300 million people, particularly in Asia and Africa. Traditional control methods, such as chemical pesticides and crop rotation, are either inefficient, costly, or harmful to the environment, leaving an urgent demand for innovative solutions.
In a major scientific breakthrough, Chinese scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and China Agricultural University have identified two key genes, SbSLT1 and SbSLT2, in sorghum(高粱) that govern resistance to Striga attacks. These genes encode strigolactone transporters, which push strigolactones--chemicals that start Striga seed growth-out of plant roots. By precisely editing these genes, researchers significantly reduced strigolactone secretion, thereby stopping Striga growth and infection. Field trials revealed that edited sorghum plants exhibited a 67%-94% reduction in Striga parasitism, with yield losses cut by nearly 50%.
This discovery marks a huge shift in crop protection. Unlike chemical pesticides, which pollute soil and water, gene-edited crops offer a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative. Moreover, the findings are not limited to sorghum; similar genes exist in other major crops like corn and rice, paving the way for broad application in global agriculture. As climate change worsens pest pressures, such biotechnological innovations will be crucial for ensuring food security while reducing humanity's ecological footprint.
32. Why does the author mention traditional control methods?
A. To show their popularity in Asian countries.
B. To stress the importance of crop rotation.
C. To explain how parasitic weeds are formed.
D. To highlight the need for new solutions.
33. How do edited sorghum plants survive Striga attacks?
A. By killing the parasitic weeds directly.
B. By absorbing more nutrients from the soil.
C. By reducing the release of specific chemicals.
D. By producing more strigolactones in roots.
34. What can we infer about the gene-editing technique?
A. It completely reverses global climate change.
B. It relies heavily on chemical pesticides.
C. It is only effective for sorghum protection.
D. It holds promise for broader agricultural use.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Striga: The Deadliest Plant Life-Stealer
B. Gene Editing: A Weapon Against Parasitic Weeds
C. The History of Global Agricultural Development
D. How to Increase Sorghum Production in Africa
第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Divergent (发散性) thinking is an ability to generate multiple approaches to solving a problem. The divergent thinkers typically answer simple questions like "What are the uses for a flower pot?" in many ways. 36____A genius of divergent thinking would come up with a hundred possible answers, and they do this by changing the concepts of already existing thinking.
Research shows that divergent thinking is mostly found among people who know how to ask questions. Divergent thinking is not so much about finding answers as it is about asking the question to get to those answers. 37____The more you ask clear questions that explore the differences, the better your chance of succeeding.
38____This technique is a tool that builds upon ideas. Allow everyone to think more freely in the group atmosphere. Don't pursue a practical solution. Instead, gather ideas relevant to the problem itself. Besides brainstorming, you can also keep a journal. Using a journal enables you to catch and record various ideas that people can have during unusual times and places.
Another effective way is to create a subject or mind-mapping visual. 39____And make sure the visuals show the relationships among these ideas. Take "Start a Charity" for example. Come up with necessary subtopics, and use lines and circles to visualize the topic. After generating ideas in these ways, you can arrange your ideas in an innovative manner. 40____
A. Put the related ideas in the form of a chart or a picture.
B. This method is used to exchange ideas.
C. It helps find the answers to the questions.
D. Asking the right questions will get what you are seeking.
E. Brainstorming is one way to improve your divergent thinking.
F. An average person would have 10 to 15 answers to this question.
G. Later, it can become a source book of ideas to develop and organize.

第二节 读后续写(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。
I was the "Queen Bee (蜂王)" at school. Every morning, as soon as I walked through the school gates, my friends would rush over to greet me. Someone would carry my bag, while others would sit beside me or share their stories with me. I was always the center of attention, and I loved that feeling. In my mind, nothing at school could ever change my place.
But not today-the first day of the new school year. As I walked toward my classroom, I found everyone gathered around a bike, talking excitedly and laughing together.
"Whose is this?"I asked.
"It's mine,"a voice replied. I turned and saw a girl with bright eyes and a sweet smile. "I'm the new girl--Colette Durand. I designed the decorations on the bike myself." The bike was covered with colorful ribbons (丝带) and small handmade decorations, and everyone seemed deeply impressed. Some of my friends even bent down to take a closer look, asking her questions.
I hated her instantly. She had shown up and taken all my friends on my very first day back.
The bell rang and I rushed inside. I headed straight for my usual seat at the front, expecting my friends to crowd around and sit next to me as usual. But to my surprise, my closest friends Jill and Molly sat beside Colette. Soon the three of them were deep in conversation.
Mrs Melville came in, welcoming us back to school, and the first thing she did after that was to introduce Colette. Colette turned around and waved at us all, smiling confidently.
Then lunch-time came. Yes, today, nobody was interested in what my lunchbox was.
"Everything OK, Kellie?" Mrs Melville asked me when I was sitting by myself. "I don't often see you on your own."
"I'm fine! I just fancied a bit of peace and quiet" I forced a smile. Mrs Melville nodded, looking unconvinced, though. It was the longest lunch-break ever.
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: Later in the hands-on design class, Mrs Melville announced a seat rearrangement
Paragraph 2: As we worked together for a paper lantern, I began to see Colette in a different light.
