A
Among the world’s waste-recycling pioneers, Germany is the leader. The country has quite a detailed way of sorting their waste-down to the color of glass waste, the type of paper, the separate bin for metals, etc.
Here below are what you should know about Germany’s waste sorting system:
◇You are expected to gather your waste in your apartment/housing area’s local public garbage bins(箱子).
◇There are commonly several types of public garbage bins available in the German’s apartment/housing areas:
Blue bin — for paper and cardboard
Green and white bin — for glass, different bins for differently colored glass, not available for holiday decorations and lights
Yellow/orange bin — for plastic and metals
Brown bin — for goods that can be changed naturally by bacteria into substances that don’t harm the environment, like leftovers, fruit and vegetables
Gray/black bin — for everything else that can’t be recycled such as used cat litter and animal waste
◇Some items don’t belong in these public garbage bins. Items like used batteries, electronics, unused paints, and lights must be returned to the special agent/locations so they can be properly recycled. Other items such as clothes, shoes, and oversized rubbish and furniture are advised to be donated or sold.
◇There’s this thing called Pfand in Germany, a certain part of the price for a bottled drink that you get back if you send back the bottle to certified (有资历的) shops. German law requires shops over a certain size selling bottled drinks have a Pfandruckgabestelle, or place for bottles with deposits (押金). These bottles usually made of glass or plastic will be refilled. Of course, there’re strict health regulations.
21. Which bin should the fallen leaves be classified into?
A. The blue bin. B. The brown bin. C. The gray/black bin. D. The green and white bin.
22. How can Germans deal with some used sneakers?
A. By returning it to special agents. B. By placing it in a specific location.
C. By giving it away to those in need. D. By donating it to a Pfandruckgabestelle.
23. What is the aim of Pfand?
A. To encourage bottles to be returned. B. To help shops reuse plastic or glass.
C. To reduce the broken bottles. D. To collect money for some shops.
B
In the livestreaming (直播) channel of Yang Weiyun, no singing or dancing is performed nor are products sold. Yang, 74 years old, teaches children Pinyin, reading and writing, something that has been most familiar to her for the past 50 years. But this time, her students are mostly adults.
In retirement, Yang also wanted to do something meaningful. The rise of short video platforms gave her the idea of continuing her education career through livestreaming online. She opened her livestreaming account in May 2021 and offered free Pinyin courses designed for illiterate (不识字的) adults ever since.
“Many illiterate adults didn’t have the chance to go to school when they were young. They are the ones in urgent need of becoming literate. I wanted to give them a new starting point,” Yang said. Considering that most of the adult students have to make time to attend the lessons, Yang holds two livestream classes every day starting at 8:30 am and 8:30 pm. Her livestreaming channel offers an easy and private way for those who want to overcome adult illiteracy. Now she has nearly 400,000 followers on the short video platform.
Zhang Mei is among the students who benefit from Yang’s livestream lessons. She was born and raised in the countryside and had never been to school. She found illiteracy brought challenges to her city life. She couldn’t find suitable work. She also couldn’t fill in forms or read the assignment from teachers for her children. She watches Yang’s livestreaming whenever there is spare time. Now she can read Chinese characters if they are marked with Pinyin and knows how to write her name. She has also found a job.
Yang said she tried her best to figure out what ways the students could learn and remember better, and her biggest wish now is to see these students graduate from her classes.
24. What has Yang been doing after her retirement?
A. Designing classes for illiterate adults at schools.
B. Engaging herself in relieving adult illiteracy online.
C. Helping people from the countryside find suitable jobs.
D. Promoting educational products on a short video platform.
25.Why does Yang hold two livestream classes in two different time periods?
A. To finish her teaching plan on time. B. To offer convenience to her students.
C. To meet the requirements of platforms. D. To attract more followers for her channel.
26. Why is Zhang Mei mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To praise her efforts made in overcoming adult illiteracy.
B. To show the popularity of Yang Weiyun’s teaching channel.
C. To present the challenges facing illiterate adults in modern city life.
D. To highlight the effects Yang’s livestream lessons bring to her viewers.
27. Which of the following can best describe Yang Weiyun?
A. Strict. B. Humble. C. Dedicated. D. Easygoing.
C
Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let the other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice of anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达) of information, correspondence (通信), means (方式) of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, tell the other person how you feel — listening is the key to communication.
28. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is ________ than with children.
A. more difficult B. much easier C. less interesting D. more interesting
29. The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A. keep up with others B. move along smoothly
C. distance yourself from others D. come closer to each other
30. The example in Paragraph 6 shows that _________.
A. Sophie is very polite to her parents B. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her
C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late D. communication is the solution to misunderstanding
31.All the following statements are correct except “________”.
A. Communication is a two-way matter.
B. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing.
C. If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know.
D. When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them.
D
“What is your name?” is a question most frequently asked when people meet for the first time. But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland.
The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu (秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did.
Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn’t stop, the entire lecture would be ruined.
“It’s okay, professor,” I shrugged (耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further.After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain.
However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity.
In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. At first, I hesitated because of the previous awkward moments. But then I decided to take the opportunity. “In Chinese, ‘Qiu’ means ‘autumn’ and ‘Yu’ means ‘rain.’ In my culture, the autumn rain nourishes the earth and brings people harvest.” The professor nodded and to my surprise, many classmates began to mimic the sound and the rhythm of my name. Their interest and effort made me feel proud of our culture. I came to know that my name is not only a symbol, but also a doorway to Chinese culture.
Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. “What a poetic name you’ve got” one girl said. “Could you teach us to say it correctly?” Another classmate asked, “Maybe you could share more about Chinese culture with us sometime.” This time, I didn’t shrug. I talked with them with extreme patience and warmth. Their curiosity and laughter made me realize that sharing our cultural identity is meaningful. From then on, I began to see my name as a bridge to connect different worlds.
32.Why was the author’s name a challenge for native English speakers?
A. Because it was too long to remember.
B. B. Because its pronunciation was unfamiliar to them.
C. Because they were not interested in foreign names.
D. Because the author refused to explain it to them.
33.What did the author do after the awkward incident in the lecture?
A. He decided to change his name to an English one.
B. He continued to correct people’s pronunciation patiently.
C. He avoided explaining the pronunciation of his name anymore.
D. He asked the professor to help him introduce his name.
34.The word “nourishes” in Paragraph 7 most probably means ______.
A. destroys B. feeds and helps grow C. washes away D. cools down
35.What was the change in the classmates’ attitude after the author explained the meaning of his name?
A. They became more curious and respectful. B. They thought it was too poetic to be true.
C.They felt sorry for their previous impatience. D. They lost interest in Chinese culture.

根据短文填空,从短文后的选项中选出能天热空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。
Forget your keys again? Can’t memorize what the exam will cover? Memory troubles are no big deal. You can fix them with simple strategies. ___36___
Strategy 1: Make meaningful connections
When you’re remembering new information, even random, unconnected facts, the brain links details to stored information. So, the easiest way is to make it meaningful by connecting to what you know and making sense within context. ___37___ For example, people find it easier to remember new vocabulary if they translate concepts into their own words.
Strategy 2: Space out your study sessions
When you’re cramming for a test, spacing out sessions where you’re reviewing foreign language vocabulary or memorizing flashcards can help your brain store memories more efficiently. ___38___Spaced repetition works because new information initially goes to short-term memory and consolidating it into long-term memory takes time and happens during rest.
Strategy 3: Engage your senses
When you want to remember a moment, engaging your senses during learning contributes to forming vivid recollections of an experience. ___39___To find them, you must use your memory to compete with all the other times you’ve put them down. Next time you set your keys aside, focus on the unique aspects of this particular moment, like the sights or smells. These sensory experiences will create a distinct memory to aid later recall.
Strategy 4: Journey through the memory palace
The memory palace is an ancient technique that, studies show, can enhance recall. It is effective especially in remembering grocery lists. ___40___ As you walk through it, create an association between the items to be bought and specific spots. Then imagine yourself “walking”your route -- each spot reminds you of the item.
A.They’re tricky in diverse aspects.
B. You might as well train your senses.
C.Take misplacing your keys for instance.
D.This can be done through personal narratives.
E. But they depend on what you want to remember.
F. Start by picturing a familiar space like your home.
G. You need to revisit information at increasing time gaps

Last month, our community launched a volunteer program to build and manage a shared garden. Posters were displayed at the gate, calling for residents to join hands in planting flowers, growing vegetables, and maintaining the environment. The idea of turning an abandoned piece of land into a green garden immediately appealed to me. I phoned my two close friends, Mike and Lily, who lived in the same neighborhood, and invited them to participate. To my delight, both agreed, excited to contribute to something meaningful for our community.
On the first Saturday morning, the three of us arrived at the empty land chosen for the garden. Several community workers were already there, preparing the soil and arranging tools. We were soon divided into groups, each responsible for different tasks. Mike, who had a gift for design, volunteered to plan the layout of the flower beds. Lily and I began planting seeds, watering, and labeling each plant carefully. The sun was very hot, and sweat ran down our faces, yet the laughter around us made every minute worthwhile. Some neighbors passing by offered bottles of water and even joined us, saying how wonderful it was to see young people caring for the neighborhood. By the end of the day, the once-bare ground was covered with rows of green shoots, silently promising a bright future.
As weeks went by, the garden began to take shape. The air was filled with the smell of fresh earth and blooming (盛开的) flowers. Elderly neighbors stopped by to watch, children came to water the plants after school, and families enjoyed evening walks along the paths we had created. However, as summer approached, the enthusiasm started to grow weaker. Some volunteers got busy, and weeds began to grow quickly. Without regular care, several plants dried up in the heat. Seeing the yellow leaves and dry soil, I couldn’t help feeling disappointed and worried. Something had to be done if we wanted the garden to survive.
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。

With the development of science and technology, robots will surely enter people's daily life in the future. They can help people in many aspects. The most important function is that they can help people deal with problems and offer useful advice, because they will be installed a special part whose function is like a human brain.
In my opinion, robots will certainly play an important role in people's life, but they also have some disadvantages. For example, they may be used to commit crimes by bad people. All in all,robots should be used properly so that they can really benefit us.

One afternoon, our leader gathered us to discuss how to manage the garden better. Everyone shared ideas enthusiastically. Mike suggested dividing the garden into small plots and assigning each plot to a group of volunteers with a clear schedule. Lily proposed setting up a noticeboard to record care tasks and progress. I added that we could invite elderly neighbors to share planting experience since they had rich knowledge. We also agreed to organize monthly gardening workshops to rekindle everyone’s enthusiasm. Soon, a detailed plan was formed, and everyone was eager to put it into action.
Months later, I walked through the garden again and was amazed by its beauty. Colorful flowers bloomed vibrantly, and fresh vegetables grew lushly along the paths. The noticeboard was filled with photos of volunteers working and harvests. Elderly neighbors were teaching kids how to water plants, while young people chatted happily as they weeded. Butterflies fluttered among the blossoms, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of flowers and fresh produce. It was no longer just a garden but a place that connected the whole community, proving that with joint efforts, we could keep beauty alive.
