The light is pouring throug the windowsas I stare attentively at a violin-shaped piece of wood in my hands.I run my fingertips over the rough surface to feel for imperfections that will need to be removed.Violin making is easy"my teacher used to joke,"just take away all the bits of wood that aren't a violin." By the time I'm in my workshop holding this piece of wood,I've already been up for many hours.I'm an early riser.After coffee,I head out for an hour-long walk with my dog. Eggs.Most of my ideas come to me during morning walks,including my proudest project to date:a violin I made for a film supporting the Right to Roam campaign,which advocates for public access to the countryside in the landscape.The violin has become the community's shared treasure for local folk players to take into the hills and play. I love walking into my workshop in the morning.My work varies from small adjustments to more extensive work requiring a careful handling of the violin as a historical object.You never know what you'll find inside an old violin.One of my favorite repairs involved a violin full of cracks.When I removed the front of it,I found its inside filled with pencil signatures from makers of the past.One read,in beautiful old calligraphic writing:"Le Petit Luthier a Paris,1825". Although many heritage crafts,like violin making,play a vital role in cultural economy. they're usually not big money earners.My choice of job also informs my lifestyle.While my friends devote time to travel and spend money on luxuries,I invest my time in community, nature,and my growth as a craftsperson.I didn't truly find my way to those things,or realize how much fulfilling they are,until I began working as a violin maker. 24.What's required to be a violin maker?

C In April 2026,NASA released stunning new photos of Earth taken by the Artemis II mission,marking the first time in 54 years that humans have captured our planet from the moon's orbit.These breathtaking images,shot from the Orion spacecraft,show Earth as a bright blue and white sphere against the endless blackness of deep space.One iconic photo features our entire planet with glowing auroras near the poles and faint zodiacal(黄道带的) light in the quiet background. The photos were taken after the Orion capsule left Earth's orbit and steadily headed toward the moon.Unlike ordinary satellite images,these pictures show Earth as a single, fragile"blue marble",with clear views of vast continents,swirling (white clouds,and the thin atmosphere that protects all living creatures.Some shots even capture the sharp line 3 between day and night,as well as faint city lights twinkling in dark regions. These images are more than just beautiful pictures.Dr.Kelsey Young,Artemis II lunar science lead,emphasized that such human-captured views provideholistic perspectives"that satellites alone cannot reproduce.They serve as fundamental evidence of Earth's breathtaking beauty and invisible fragility.Nicky Fox,NASA's Seience Mission Directorate associate administrator,noted the photos carry"critical data"for both Earth science and future lunar missions. The Artemis II mission follows the famous 1968"Earthrise"photo from Apollo8,which inspired the first Earth Day and greatly raised global environmental awareness.NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman stressed that these images reinforce our "extraordinary responsibility to understand and protect our planet"Today's new photos carry the same meaningful message:we must spare no effort to protect our precious planet.Though the mission focuses mainly on lunar exploration,these distant views of Earth remind people that space exploration and environmental protection are closely and inseparably linked.

A.Partial B.Comprehensive C.Practical D.Accessible 31.What can we infer from the passage? A.Moon exploration will cause ecological troubles. B.People have finished protecting the environment well. C.Space observation helps raise earth protection awareness. D.The old photo was taken to advocate environmental protection. D Are you a fan of birds?If so,you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs.But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that? A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the homeor outdoors,can boost people's moods. Researchers at King's College London used a smartphone app built by the school's Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeingor hearing a bird.A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom,Europe,and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021. The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being.Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees,plants or hear any water to see if people were 4 experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature,and not just because of exposure to birds. According to the study,the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird. There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water)to improved mental health.But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans'mental well-being. And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health.the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time,according to Hammoud,lead author of the study. "They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees,plants,water,birds,"said Hammoud,"We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being."” 32.What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A.To introduce a phenomenon. B.To bring in the topic C.To ask an interesting question D.To provide background information 33.How did the researchers conduct the study? A.By analyzing previous studies. B.By observing the behavior of birds. C.By gathering feelings of participants. D.By studying people's effect on birds. 34.What does Hammoud think of the new study? A.Pioneering B.Interesting C.Conventional D.Practical 35.What is the main idea of the text? A.Bird watching has become a popular hobby. B.Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being. C.Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues. D.Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively 第二节（共5个小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 About a year ago,our dishwasher broke down.We called a repairman and were told it would have to be replaced. 36 after dinner.
