I come here regularly to meet with friends.It's a cheerful space with lots of natural light,local
art decorating the walls and books available in the lower room.As for the menu,there is definitely
a spirit of innovation with new creations offered seasonally.Last thing I will comment on is
that this coffee shop participates in community partnerships and really seems to practice local
sourcing as much as possible,and they advertise special events and opportunities each month.A
stand-out coffee shop we are blessed to have.
Aldo Lavalle November 2025

Pretty good first experience overall.Spacious dining area with lots of seating options and a
very homey feel.WiFi available with password clearly displayed.Ample (menu.
Parking can be a drawback at first glance until you come across the extra parking lot sign in the
back.Since the actual parking lot near the building is super small,only a few spaces,there should
be a clear sign at the front where it says"additional parking in the back",or else you won't know
it's there.
Overall would recommend.

When I was quite young,my family had a telephone.I would sit quietly and listen when
my mother talked to it.I was surprised to discover that somewhere inside it lived a lady named
“Information Please”.
One day my mother went out to visit a neighbor,I hit my head against the door while playing.
It was painful,but I held back my tears because there was no one home to give sympathy.Then,I
noticed the telephone.
Quickly,I unhooked the receiver and held it to my ear."Information Please,"I said into the

head.”said the voice.
After that,I called "Information Please"each time I met with a problem.When my pet
canary(金丝雀)died,I called“Information Please'”and told her the sad story.She comforted me,
saying softly,"Paul,always remember there are other worlds to sing in."
Later,we moved,but the memories of those conversations never really left.One day when I was
alone,I dialed again and said,"Information Please."A different voice answered,"Information."
I asked for Sally."Are you a friend?"he asked."Yes,a very old friend.My name is Paul."I
answered."Well,Sally left a message for you.Let me read it to you.It said,'Paul,always remember
there are other worlds to sing in.'I'm sorry to tell you that Sally has..."I stopped him and hung up,

In the past thirty years,bee numbers in the United Kingdom have fallen by nearly a third.The
main reasons are climate change and the loss of natural habitats.These changes make it hard for
bees to find enough pollen(花粉)and nectar(花蜜).Pollen is important because it gives bees
proteins,fats,vitamins,and minerals.Without these nutrients,bees cannot stay healthy.Beekeepers
sometimes give bees extra food,but these supplements lack all the nutrients bees need.As a result,
the lack of good food has become a serious problem for honeybees.
To solve this,scientists led by Professor Geraldine Wright from the University of Oxford worked
to design better food.The challenge was that bees need special nutrients called sterols,which are
not easy to make.The team studied which sterols bees need,and then found a way to produce them.
They created a type of yeast (that can make all six sterols.The next step was to prepare the
food in a form bees would accept.Since bees are fussy eaters who turn their noses up at unsuitable
food,the team made a soft "cookie dough"mixture with bee-friendly ingredients.
The scientists tested the new food in glasshouses.The results were impressive.Colonies that ate
the food produced up to fifteen times more young bees than colonies that did not.These young bees
also grew into healthy adults.The bees with the new diet lived longer,cared for their young better,
and were stronger against diseases.This showed the food could greatly improve bee growth and
survival.Wright called it"a huge breakthrough for the species."
The study has important significance for both bees and people.With this new food,bees will not
need to fight so much for wildflowers.This can help bee populations recover and become stronger.
Since bees are key pollinators()for many crops,protecting them also helps protect human
food supplies.If the food is used on a larger scale,it could be a big step toward saving bees and
supporting global food security.
28.What can we learn about bee supplements from paragraph 1?
A.They are made from natural pollen and nectar.B.They contain all the nutrients bees need.
C.They cannot fully replace natural food sources.D.They help solve the healthy problem of bees.
29.What does the underlined word"fussy"in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Quiet.
B.Picky.
C.Big.
D.Fast.
30.What does the glasshouse test suggest about the new food?
A.It suits bees'tastes better.
B.It makes young bees grow faster.
C.It works best in a controlled environment.
D.It boosts bees'population and well-being.
31.What is the potential significance of the study?
A.It encourages people to keep bees.
B.It helps safeguard human food sources.
C.It indicates environmental health condition.
D.It removes bees'dependence on wildflowers.

Readers on social media are making the beauty of reading more visible than ever with creative
and often complicated annotations ()Called marginalia,these markups can be detailed,with
notes that nearly fill full pages and even match the color of the book's cover.This practice has
started a lively debate:are marginalia a beneficial reading habit,or do they simply ruin books?
But marginalia are far from a modern invention.Centuries ago,Leonardo da Vinci wrote down
his thoughts on gravity in the margins()of his Codex Arundel,anticipating Galileo's work
by years.In literature,early editions of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice often contain annotations
from 19th-century readers,capturing emotional responses that mirror those of today's readers.More
recently,celebrated novelist Ann Patchett released an annotated edition of Tom Lake,allowing her
to revisit her writing while offering readers a unique "behind-the-scenes"look into her creative
process.
Modern neuroscience(神经科学)now confirms the mental benefits of this age-.old habit.A
study in Frontiers in Psychology found that handwriting boosts memory and deepens comprehension
of the text.Extending this finding,Professor Maryanne Wolf suggests that through marginalia,
readers not only absorb the author's wisdom but also uncover their own insights.
Furthermore,annotation has evolved into a medium for dialogue with the self and a bridge to
others.Marcela,a Bookstagrammer,explains."You can literally see how my views on characters
evolve through my notes,and I love being able to look back at my early plot predictions."Moreover,
it is now common for readers to gift annotated books as personalized presents and hunt for
secondhand copies bearing the notes of previous readers or even the authors,transforming a finished
book into a dynamic,co-created text.
So,if the book-fluencers fill their books with a colorful chaos of thoughts,why not let them?
After all,in the pursuit of deeper understanding and connection,a few untidy margins seem a small
price to pay.
32.What practice is mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.Writing personal notes in books.
B.Sharing helpful reading habits.
C.Posting reading moments online.
D.Designing beautiful book covers.
33.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding marginalia?
A.Their modern artistic value.
B.Their well-recognized figures.
C.Their use in classic literature.
D.Their long-standing presence.
34.Why do some readers buy secondhand annotated books?
A.To deepen test comprehension.
B.To collect rare editions.
C.To find out correct predictions.
D.To connect with past thoughts.
35.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Meaningful Minds in Messy Margins.
B.Personal Response to Annotated Critics.
C.The Neuroscience Behind Marginalia.
D.Forgotten Stories Between Annotated Lines.

Have you ever experienced such moments:a warm smile from a stranger,a brief chat with
someone waiting in line,or a simple wave to a neighbor you hardly know?These tiny interactions
among strangers and familiar faces alike are called"microconnections".36Yet their
importance goes far beyond our awareness.
When people have a microconnection with a stranger,the levels of dopamine (in their
brain increase while the body's stress chemical decreases.The result is a greater sense of well-being.
_37 They enable both parties to gain a more positive mindset and greater relaxation.
Another effect of these casual interactions lies in their influence on how you perceive reality
and respond to novel ideas.38 Thus brief contacts with them can offer brand-new spiritual
enrichment and broaden your perspectives on the world.Interestingly,research shows people may
actually be more open to considering opposing viewpoints when talking to strangers than to close
family members,which lays a solid foundation for in-depth and original idea exchanges
39 They build public trust,which in turn makes social communities more closely
connected.As Sandstrom,a well-known psychologist,explains,"That sense of community is a huge
thing we get from talking to strangers-it's just feeling there's this shared humanity and that we are
seen by other people and valued by other people."This feeling helps people recognize themselves as
part of a community.
In a world where people often feel disconnected,these small moments remind us of the hidden
bonds between ordinary individuals.A microconnection may bear lasting fruit.40
A.They tend to slip our attention.
B.Microconnections are also two-way streets.
C.People are eager for connection with others.
D.Brief exchanges affect more than just the two individuals.
E.Such encounters bring unnoticed changes to the inner world.
F.Those who you meet by chance possess diverse life experiences.
G.So next time do not hesitate to offer a smile to a person around you.

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 dad was a man of few words.Growing up,I only had short conversations with him.He
worked long hours as a mechanic,his hands always covered with grease ()I loved him,but I
often felt like we lived in two different worlds.I was buried in books and dreams of college;he was
buried under cars and the weight of making ends meet.
The silence between us widened into a gap during my junior year.I had a burning desire to
attend a creative writing summer program at a famous university across the country.It was expensive
and,in his eyes,impractical."Wasting money on dreams,"he said one evening,not looking up from
the newspaper.That was his only comment.I felt very angry.
The following Saturday,I planned to spend the day studying at the library,escaping the
heavy silence at home.But as I walked towards the bus stop,I realized I'd forgotten my notebook.
Annoyed,I turned back.As I approached our small garage,I heard a strange noise.Looking through
the slightly open door,I stopped dead in my tracks.
There was my dad,bent over his old workbench.But he wasn't fixing a car.Around him were
pieces of wood,fine sandpaper,and small tools I'd never seen before.In his grease-worn hands,he
held a piece of polished mahogany ()carefully carving it into the shape of a fountain pen.
On his workbench lay a worn-out copy of my favorite novel,The Catcher in the Rye,which I had
carelessly left in the living room.
He was painstakingly testing the pen he was making-dipping its unfinished nib()into
ink,copying a sentence from the book onto a piece of paper.Then he would stop,turn the piece of
mahogany in his hand,and carve a little more.
He wasn't just making a pen;he was trying to build a bridge into my world,using the only tools
he knew-his hands and his labor.My anger became a deep sense of shock and shame.
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 quietly pushed the door open and stepped inside.
My dad handed me the roughly-carved pen,his eyes still avoiding mine.
