Patagonia While it’s winter up north, Patagonia is in full summer mode. Long days, mild weather, and open hiking trails make this the best season to see native wildlife in Torres del Paine National Park. Pumas can be easily found and sightings of red foxes are also pretty common. Whether you’re hiking among forests or watching wildlife, Patagonia is impressive in the winter months. Antarctica For tourists, Antarctica is only accessible from November to March. Reaching Antarctica is a Bucket List item for many travelers. Travel to the white continent is more than a simple journey. It is an expedition travel, a dividing line that separates the traveling public into tourists and adventurers. An expedition ship to Antarctica is the closest you’ll probably ever come to visiting another planet. Bangkok Bangkok is extremely hot most of the year, but in winter it becomes pleasantly warm and far less unbearable. From street food stands to buzzing night markets, this energetic city is best explored when the heat and wetness are manageable. It’s also the perfect jumping-off point for Thailand’s islands. Sydney If you’re traveling in winter, nothing beats the festive magic of Australia markets. As a fast-paced, modern city, Sydney comes alive with festivals, which bring locals and visitors together. It kicks off the season with bright colors and festive energy and there is always something to keep you excited. 16. Which destination is characterized by wild animals? A. Patagonia. B. Antarctica. C. Bangkok. D. Sydney. 17. Who would most probably be drawn to Antarctica? A. Culture lovers. B. Space engineers. C. Job-hunters. D. Nature explorers. 18. What do the last two destinations have in common? A. They are perfect for island adventures. B. They are pleasant to travel year-round. C. They present energetic city life. D. They hold festivals day and night. B One sunny Monday, I decided to go for a walk. There is a beautiful dirt track (土路) near my house that runs along a river for about 2km. On my finger was a very special ring: I’d only just picked it up from the jeweller’s the day before because I’d had it designed to hold a diamond (钻石) given to me by my grandmother for my 21st birthday. I looked down at my ring as I began my walk, feeling as sunny as the day. Imagine my sadness when I looked again at the end of the track and saw a gaping hole in the ring where the diamond should have been. It was missing. Panicked, I started back along the path, looking frantically for the stone. In my heart, I knew how hopeless my search was. The track was long, stony (多石的) and covered with leaves and debris (碎片). As I scanned the ground, crying and extremely worried, I met an older gentleman out for a walk. “What’s the matter, love?” he asked kindly. “Lost something?” I explained about the missing diamond and showed him the hole in my ring. He showed his pity for it. “That’s hard to find. Tell you what, love, I walk along this track every day, I’ll keep my eyes open for it.” I thanked him, expecting nothing, but told him my husband often walks our dogs along the path if he ever found something. A few days later, my husband met the older man on the path. “Guess what?” he said. “I found your diamond!” Unbelievably, he’d found the tiny stone and was delighted to hand the diamond back to my husband, saying casually, “Luckily I found it—I have poor eyesight.” When my husband offered him money for his trouble, he refused it. He could have easily kept the diamond, or sold it, as it’s worth several thousand dollars, but, thanks to this man, I’ll spend the rest of my days trying to do something equally significant for another person. And if I’m ever worried about the state of the human race, all I have to do is look at my ring and remind myself that there are still kind and generous souls out there. 19. What does the underlined word “frantically” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Anxiously. B. Happily. C. Excitedly. D. Curiously. 20. Who found the diamond finally? A. The owner herself. B. Her husband. C. The old man with poor eyesight. D. The jeweller. 21. What can best describe the old man? A. Rich and honest. B. Kind and generous. C. Careful and brave. D. Patient and modest. 22. What section of a magazine does this text probably come from? A. Life Well Lived. B. The Holiday Season. C. Important Facts. D. The Power of Good. C Jessica Matthews is an inventor who uses technology to do social good (好事). Born in the United States to Nigerian parents, Jessica grew up experiencing two different cultures. This unique background inspired her to think about global challenges in new ways. At just 19 years old, while studying mechanical engineering in college, Jessica and her classmates brainstormed a groundbreaking idea: a soccer ball that could produce electricity. The idea for this invention came during a family trip to the countryside of Nigeria, where she saw firsthand how families struggled without regular electricity. The Soccket Ball (发电足球), a name combining “soccer” and “socket”, looks like any other soccer ball, but it has a special feature. As you play with it, the ball captures the energy from being kicked and rolled. After a game, this energy can power small devices like LED lights. For many families without regular electricity, this invention can make a big difference. Despite gaining strong support from global organizations and media attention, the product faced unexpected difficulties after its launch. Many disappointed users reported that the balls broke or stopped working within a few months, failing to live up to the promised three years of useful life. The problems led to criticism from users and negative headlines, putting pressure on Uncharted Play, the company Jessica founded. The team openly admitted that they hadn’t expected the equipment to be so damaged by rough play in the country and promised to revise the design with stronger materials and improved internal parts. Despite these setbacks, Jessica and her team at Uncharted Play continued to work on energy solutions. Their latest invention, a portable jump rope (便携式跳绳) that generates electricity, builds on the Soccket’s success with a more durable, lightweight design. Designed for both children and adults, the jump rope can power small devices like phones or flashlights, expanding the reach of their mission. Jessica’s key goal remains unchanged: to provide clean renewable energy to people around the world, where electricity shortage limits education, health, and economic opportunities. Her journey proves that even simple, fun activities — like playing soccer or jumping rope — can be transformed into powerful tools to address pressing global affairs. 23. What inspired Jessica to think about global challenges in new ways? A. Her trip to America with her family. B. Her mechanical engineering studies. C. Her unique cross-cultural background. D. The energy shortage problem she noticed. 24. Why did the Soccket Ball disappoint users? A. It performed with high costs. B. It didn’t last as long as three years. C. It can only power small devices. D. It was uncomfortable to play with. 25. What is Jessica’s key goal? A. To encourage people to exercise more regularly. B. To discover more possible tools for spreading culture. C. To offer renewable energy to human beings globally. D. To achieve worldwide market success for her inventions. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Jessica? A. Creative and polite. B. Honest and selfless. C. Outgoing and careful. D. Ambitious and responsible. D Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways — threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health. Now, new research points to a possibly lifelong setback (障碍) for children who are suffering from extreme heat. In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives. Meeting these basic developmental milestones (里程碑) at the early time — including recognizing letters (字母) or words and playing independently — can influence later life achievements, from mental health to economic success. “Delays in developing these skills set kids down a developmental path that can affect not just personal well-being, but society as a whole,” says Cuarta, a researcher at New York University. To see if there are connections between extreme heat and the development of these skills, Cuarta and his team studied data from 19,600 children surveyed by UNICEF in six countries. The team used the Early Childhood Development Index, which follows milestones in four areas: reading and number-related skills (cognitive skills), social-emotional development (social skills) , ways of learning (learning skills) and physical development (physical skills). The Index tested children’s ability to name letters, read simple words and recognize the numbers 1 through 10, among other skills. In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. Learning loss may happen because heat’s effects on the brain can produce slower reaction times and an inability to focus. Heat can mess with (扰乱) children’s sleep, leading to cognitive disorder and learning difficulties in early childhood. With temperature rising globally, these delays could continue through school years and beyond, widening gaps in education and opportunity. “There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.” 27. How does the author present the pressure caused by climate change? A. By quoting an expert. B. By raising a suggestion. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The influence of painful childhood. B. The importance of early development. C. The science behind the heat’s damage. D. The explanation of cognitive skills. 29. What can be inferred from Cuarta’s study? A. Heat stress can promote kids’ sleep quality. B. Heat’s effects were greater on mental health. C. Temperature can determine kids’ personality. D. Extreme heat may harm reading and number-related skills. 30. What is Cuarta’s suggestion about? A. Increase more control groups. B. Need to include more volunteers. C. Possible direction of future studies. D. Wide promotion of the findings. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分共12.5分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Forgiveness (宽恕) is often considered as an important decision to let go of feelings of anger towards someone who you believe has wronged you.
