The Locked Box
Max, a 14-year-old boy who loved coding, had always enjoyed challenging himself with difficult problems. Every evening, he would log in to an online platform where different challenges tested his logic and creativity.
One day, a strange challenge called “The Locked Box” appeared on his homepage. It seemed ordinary at first — just a box on the screen with a shining lock symbol. However, unlike other challenges, it provided no instructions at all. Max tried every possible method, but the box simply 13 to open.
Weeks passed. He searched for hidden clues and tested countless answers, but nothing worked. The box remained shut, and a deep sense of 14 began to grow inside him. Each failed attempt (尝试) made him doubt his skills a little more. “Maybe I’m just not cut out for this,” he thought 15 with a sigh. He almost closed the laptop twice.
One evening, as he was about to give up, a short message from the platform caught his attention. “The key to opening the box is not in your code,” it read. “It’s in your mind. Believe you can 16 the challenge.”
Max read the words several times. Then, a thought came to him — he had been so afraid of failing that he had forgotten to trust himself. He took a deep breath and reopened the challenge. This time, instead of rushing, he examined the problem with a 17 mind.
And there it was — the answer, which had been hidden in plain sight all along. With just a few simple lines of code, the box clicked open. On the screen, a message appeared: “You have unlocked the 18 within yourself.”
Max smiled, realizing that the biggest lock had never been the box itself. He understood that true success does not come from never falling, but from 19 every time he falls. From that day on, whenever Max faced a new challenge, he reminded himself that the power to 20 any door was always inside him.

17. A. clear B. quick C. simple D. strong
18. A. trust B. victory C. chance D. treasure
19. A. comparing B. admiring C. winning D. rising
20. A. pull B. open C. break D. knock

Fifteen-year-old Mia had always hated rules. At home, her parents had plenty of rules: No phones at the dinner table, do homework before video games, and be in bed by 10:00 on school nights. Mia thought they were all unfair.
She had her own rules. Rule number one: Breakfast can be whatever she wants — cookies, chips or left-over pizza. Rule number two: There is no need to clean her room unless someone is coming over. Rule number three: She can use screens before bed. Her parents tried to correct her, but Mia always found a way to get around the rules.
Everything changed when her parents brought home a puppy named Max. Max was cute, with big brown eyes and a tail that never stopped wagging (摇尾巴). But he had one problem: He didn’t like rules, either. He chewed on shoes, jumped on the sofa with muddy paws, and barked loudly at midnight.
One Saturday, Mia was supposed to watch Max while her parents went out. But she ignored the rule “walk the dog first” and spent an hour on her phone instead. When she finally got to the backyard, Max had already dug a huge hole under the fence and escaped.
Mia spent the next two hours running through the neighborhood, calling Max’s name. Her heart pounded. What if he was hit by a car? What if he never came back? She felt sick with worry.
Finally, she found him in the park, happily playing in a mud puddle. As she carried the dirty, smelly puppy home, something clicked in her mind: Rules weren’t there to make her life inconvenient. They were there to keep things from falling apart.
That night, Mia sat down with her parents. “I think I need some new rules,” she said. Then, they made a list together: No phones during meals, a 30-minute dog walk every day, and room cleaning every Sunday. For the first time, Mia didn’t argue.
She learned that growing up isn’t about breaking all the rules. It’s about understanding which rules matter and learning to follow them — not for her parents, but for herself.
24. What did Mia do when her parents tried to correct her bad habits?
A. She argued but finally gave in.
B. She asked them to make new rules.
C. She always found a way to avoid the rules.
D. She followed their advice immediately.
25. Why did Max escape from the backyard?
A. Because Mia forgot to take him for a walk first.
B. Because the fence in the backyard was broken.
C. Because he was afraid of being alone at home.
D. Because Mia left the gate open when she went out.
26. What is the most important lesson that Mia learned from this experience?
A. Experience is the best teacher.
B. Better late than never.
C. No rules, no order.
D. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
C
Every year, gray whales make a remarkable journey between the food-rich Arctic waters and the warm coasts of Mexico. This ancient migration (迁徙) has continued for thousands of years. However, climate change is now threatening their survival.
In recent years, an increasing number of gray whales have been seen in unfamiliar areas, including the heavily trafficked San Francisco Bay. This trend is deeply worrying. According to a recent study, nearly 20% of the gray whales that enter the bay fail to survive, with many killed by ship strikes.
Why are these whales taking such a dangerous and unusual route? Scientists link this behavioral shift to climate change. Rising ocean temperatures have greatly reduced the food supply in the whales’ natural feeding grounds. Starving and hopeless, some whales leave their traditional routes to search for food in places like San Francisco Bay. Unfortunately, the bay is anything but a safe shelter.
Several factors contribute to the danger. Gray whales are very elusive when they surface, making them extremely difficult to spot, especially in the fog — a frequent weather condition in the area. Meanwhile, the bay serves as one of the busiest waterways in the United States. The combination of poor visibility and heavy ship traffic proves to be deadly for these ocean giants.
Between 2018 and 2025, researchers documented 70 gray whale deaths in the region. Over 40% of these deaths resulted from injuries caused by ships, while many others showed clear signs of food shortage. Shockingly, only four out of the 114 whales identified in the bay were ever sighted returning to the bay a second time, suggesting that many whales face serious danger after entering the bay.
Scientists are calling for urgent action. Possible measures include raising awareness among ship operators, rerouting ships, and enforcing speed limits in high-risk areas. Similar methods have already proven effective in reducing ship strikes elsewhere.
The suffering of the gray whales serves as a stark warning: climate change does more than raise global temperatures — it upsets the entire ecosystem and drives countless species towards extinction. This forces us to face a disturbing question: if we continue to overlook their habitats and put off taking action to protect the environment, how many more victims will follow? Only immediate action can prevent the same misery for other species.
27. Why do some gray whales leave their traditional routes?
A. Because they may die from lack of food.
B. Because they are looking for safer places to live.
C. Because they want to stay away from busy waterways.
D. Because they need to take shorter journeys to save energy.
28. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Gray whales will not enter the bay if the water is warmer.
B. Low visibility is the main reason for the death of gray whales in the bay.
C. Managing ship traffic can lower the risk for gray whales in the bay.
D. Gray whales might give up their ancient migration if climate worsens.
29. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To present research on gray whale population changes.
B. To call on people to take action to protect the environment.
C. To discuss the dangers that gray whales face in waters.
D. To compare the behavior of gray whales in different bodies of water.
D
Every weekend, millions of young athletes compete in organized sports. From soccer to swimming, basketball to gymnastics, children are training harder and starting younger than ever before. A growing trend in youth sports — specialization, or focusing on one sport year-round — has sparked a heated debate among parents, coaches, and medical experts.
Supporters of early specialization argue that concentrated effort is the key to excellence. Many top athletes, such as tennis stars Serena Williams and Venus Williams, began their training as preschoolers. By devoting themselves to one sport, young athletes can master complex skills that require thousands of hours of practice. For families aiming for college scholarships or professional sports careers, specialization appears to be the most logical path.
However, lots of research suggests that early specialization may prove counterproductive in the long run. According to Dr. Eva Seligman from Johns Hopkins Medicine, children who specialize too early face a greatly increased risk of overuse injuries. Studies suggest that athletes who specialize are 70 to 93 percent more likely to suffer injuries than those who participate in multiple (多种多样的) sports. Half of all injuries in youth sports are classified as injuries caused by overuse.
The risks extend beyond physical health. The American Academy of Pediatrics (美国儿科学会) reports that nearly 70 percent of young athletes stop organized sports by age 13. What are the main causes? Burnout, loss of motivation, and overwhelming pressure to perform. Dr. Arvind Balaji from Stanford Medicine emphasizes that “playing more than one sport can sharply reduce the risk of injury and burnout.” He also notes a surprising fact: many top athletes — including the basketball legend LeBron James and the soccer star Abby Wambach — played various sports throughout high school before eventually specializing at the collegiate level.
So what is the right path? Medical experts strongly recommend a balanced approach. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises delaying (延迟) specialization until age 15 or 16. Before that, children should try different kinds of sports, develop general physical skills, and more importantly, keep sports enjoyable. A simple but effective guideline: a child should never train more hours per week than his or her age in years. For example, an 11-year-old child should practice no more than 11 hours weekly. Additionally, young athletes should take at least two days off each week and schedule three months of rest from their primary sport each year.
Ultimately, the purpose of youth athletics should extend beyond mere championships or scholarships. True success lies not in winning prizes, but in developing lifelong healthy habits, mastering teamwork, and above all, preserving true enjoyment. After all, a child who drops out by 13 will never reach professional status — yet one who finds joy in play may remain active for life.
30. Why does the writer mention LeBron James and Abby Wambach in Paragraph 4?
A. To show that playing various sports might benefit athletes.
B. To show that specialization is necessary for top athletes.
C. To explain why multi-sport athletes are less likely to burn out.
D. To argue that basketball and soccer are better sports than others.
31. What does the word “counterproductive” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Helping to achieve a goal more quickly.
B. Making sports less enjoyable than before.
C. Producing the opposite of the desired result.
D. Causing physical injuries to young athletes.
32. Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with?
A. Early specialization is necessary to become a top athlete.
B. Championships are the most important part of youth sports success.
C. Training less than a child’s age per week is always enough for young athletes.
D. Playing various sports reduces injury risk at a young age and keeps kids interested.
33. What is the best title for the passage?
A. What Are the Hidden Risks of Youth Sports?
B. Should Young Athletes Focus on One Sport Early?
C. Is Specialization the Key to Athletic Success?
D. Does Hard Training Since Childhood Really Pay Off?

四、阅读表达(第34-36题每题2分,第37题4分,共10分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
When I entered middle school, I had no interest in video games at all. Yet my friends were crazy about them and frequently laughed at me for being the only one who refused to join them. Although I knew I should focus on my studies, I was afraid of being left out. Gradually, I gave in and started playing video games just to fit in. It wasn’t long before my grades took a noticeable downturn. One night, looking at my disappointing test score, I lay awake, feeling regretful and anxious. This experience became my first and most direct lesson about peer pressure.
My experience taught me a valuable lesson about what peer pressure really is. Unlike the common misunderstanding that peer pressure is just “following the crowd blindly”, I learned that it involves a complex inner conflict: you want to refuse, but you fear being laughed at or left out. Research has shown that repeatedly giving in to such pressure can lead to poor decision-making, increased anxiety, loss of self-identity, and even a noticeable drop in grades.
However, peer pressure does not have to control us. Over time, I’ve found that with clear steps and inner strength, we can learn to stand up to it without pushing people away. The first step is to stick to your own values and standards. When you focus on your own progress instead of others’ choices, you can build a strong sense of self-confidence that makes it easier to say no to things you don’t want to do. The second step is to look for support from trusted adults. Talking to a teacher or your parents about your feelings can help you see the situation more clearly, and their guidance can serve as a powerful defense against negative peer influence. Finally, it is important to build friendships with people who respect your choices. True friends will accept you for who you are, rather than force you to change to fit in.
As I’ve learned through my own journey, breaking free from peer pressure is never easy. It takes courage to stay true to yourself when everyone around you seems to be moving in a different direction. Yet it is totally possible, and the effort is worth it. The goal is not to shut yourself off from others, nor to follow them blindly to fit in. Instead, it is to develop the inner strength to make your own choices, while still keeping the meaningful friendships that matter to you. After all, the most important relationship you will ever have is the one you have with yourself.
34. How did the writer feel after seeing his test score?
35. What is peer pressure according to the writer?
36. What are the negative influences of peer pressure according to the passage?
37. Do you agree that breaking free from peer pressure is never easy? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.)
