第一节 (满分15分 )
Dear Chris,
How’s everything going? I’m excited to share our school’s new “Learning Beyond Walls” program, where we go on off-campus field trips once a month. Last week, we visited a science museum and did hands-on experiments about renewable energy. It was amazing to see theories come to life!
I really love this approach because it makes learning more vivid and memorable. We’re not stuck in classrooms any more — every trip feels like an adventure. I hope you get to experience something similar too!
Looking forward to hearing your news.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节 (满分25分)
Paragraph 1:
Three days before the deadline, Taylor walked into the school office. Her heart pounded as she picked up the talent show sign-up form, but this time, she didn't put it back. She thought of Triana — how the little girl had stumbled over “grasshopper” yet kept trying, how her eyes had lit up when she finally read it right. If a second grader could face her fears every Wednesday, Taylor could face hers too. She scribbled her name and performance piece on the form, handed it to the teacher, and walked out with a mix of terror and relief. The fear was still there, but so was a newfound determination.
Paragraph 2:
The Wednesday after the talent show, Taylor showed up at the library with a smile. Triana was already there, holding a chapter book. “How did it go?” she asked eagerly. Taylor admitted she had stumbled on one high note, but she had kept going and finished her song — and the audience had applauded. Triana grinned. “Like grasshopper!” she said. They both laughed, and Triana opened her book to read aloud. As Taylor listened to her fluent voice, she realized they had been teaching each other all along: Triana learned to read, and Taylor learned that courage doesn't mean not being afraid — it means trying anyway.

W:I'd like to send this box to a tourist center in Hangzhou.
M:Is there anything valuable in it?
W:No. There are some guidebooks and some local snacks

M:What are you doing with two computers on your desk? You can't possibly be using both.
W:Sure, I can. It's something I learned from reading about Bill Gates. I've found that I can increase my productivity like this.
Text 3
W:Could you please take care of Barky? I’m trying to tidy up the clothes, and he keeps barking and wandering around the room.
M:Of course. It seems we've delayed his walk today.
W:Right, he's well aware of his routine, isn't he?

M:Oh, dear.I thought my doctor's appointment was at 10:00 am., but it's actually at 9:30! I need to be there in ten minutes. I'll never make it!
W:Don't worry. I'll drive you there. But you need to be more organized!

W:Tom, we should ask Mary to make her bed. You know, kids can boost their brainpower by doing regular household tasks. They should begin to develop these skills in early childhood.
M:OK. Doing more jobs around the house may help them succeed at school.

M:I heard that you and your husband adopted a cat.
W:That's right. We adopted a six-month-old cat from the animal shelter three weeks ago.
M:That's been on my mind as well.
W:I totally back your idea! Adopting a cat can be troublesome at first, because you need to take it to a pet hospital for a check-up, and it may not trust you right away, but there's a special satisfaction in helping an animal that's truly in need.
M:You make a good point.

W:Hi, Roy. I'm sorry to bother you at dinner time.
M:Oh Judy. It's OK. We just finished eating. Won't you come in?
W:I can't. Our little girl Emily has come down with a high fever.
M:I'm sorry. Is it serious?
W:I'm not sure yet. We're taking her to the hospital soon.
M:Is there anything I can do to help?
W:Yes. That's why I'm here. Would you mind keeping an eye on the baby while we are at the hospital with Emily? We can't take him along.
M:I'd be happy to. Linda can go over to your place and stay with him while I finish up the dishes for her.
W:We really appreciate your help. Sorry for the trouble.
M:No problem. That's what friends are for. It's very convenient that we live next door to you.

W:Good afternoon, Mr. Brown. Could you please introduce yourself first?
M:Sure. I'm a recent graduate from Stanford University, where I majored in marketing. I received my degree two months ago. I'm fluent in Spanish.
W:I really admire it. Our company frequently deals with Spanish-speaking clients, so your language skills will give you an additional advantage in your role on our team if you're hired. Anyway, why did you choose our company?
M:From what I've seen on your website, your company is committed to social responsibility initiatives, such as volunteering in nursing homes and collecting clothes for the homeless. I used to work as a volunteer teacher in a mountain village. So I see a clear match between my values and yours. To me, making a positive impact is just as important as career growth and benefits.

M:Hey, Claire! Remember a few months back when we chatted about improving my German-speaking skills, and you shared some great advice?
W:Of course, Keith. I suggested using German media more often, reading more German novels and setting achievable goals. How did it go?
M:These tips made a big difference to me!
W:That's fantastic to hear! It sounds like you've made significant progress.
M:Indeed, I have. I'm now able to speak up confidently and express myself quite well in basic German. I appreciate your support and guidance throughout this journey.
W:I'm glad I could be of help. I always believed in your potential to excel in languages. Now we can have more interesting and in-depth conversations!
M:Absolutely! I'm looking forward to that. And perhaps we could plan a trip to Germany together to practice our language skills in a real-world setting!
W:That sounds terrific! We should definitely look into it.
Text 10
I'm often asked the question “How did you become a journalist?” You see, everybody expected me to follow in my father's footsteps and become a doctor. In my last year of school, I visited a career adviser and I drove her crazy with my choices. My first choice was a chocolate tester. Although my career adviser wasn't very impressed, she got me the information. I found out that chocolate testers don't just sit around eating chocolate — they also must be good at marketing. That was not my cup of tea, so I gave up that idea. Then, the idea of becoming a dog stylist crossed my mind. That was after I realized how much money my dog stylist, Shirley, was being paid every time I visited her with my Philip. However, once, while she was styling Philip, I noticed that he tried to bite her. “It happens all the time,” she told me. As you can imagine, that really put me off. To cut a long story short, all this research made me realize I had a gift for investigation, so by the end of the school year I decided to become a journalist. That is when I started my career in journalism.

In her late 50s, Pat Gentile was identified with breast cancer. During cancer treatment, she lost all her hair, so she began to wear a wig.
“But that wig — and I only had one wig — was uncomfortable, and it was annoying,” Gentile said. “So when I sort of had a crew cut look (平头发型), I decided that it was time to give the wig up. ”
The first time she was driving to work without the wig, Gentile felt exposed. As the head of a local college and a frequent spokesperson, she worried about how people would respond. “I didn't want to get the ‘pity eyes’ that people give you when you're sick,” Gentile said. “I wanted to just keep moving.”
She stopped at a convenience store to pick up some coffee and lunch. As she shopped through the passage, a woman approached her. Fifteen years later, Gentile still remembers what the woman said. “Not everybody could wear a hairstyle like that. You look fantastic.”
Gentile was amazed. She managed to say, “Thank you,” before the woman walked away. Then she went back to her car, letting the words settle. “I sat there for a while, sort of treasuring this wonderful, kind thing that this person had said to me,” Gentile said. “And it really made a turning point for me that made me feel seen, made me feel normal and gave me the courage to get to work and just get started.”
Gentile donated the wig and never looked back. She completed the cancer treatment and has had no evidence of cancer since 2011. Thinking back to that encounter, she credits the woman's kindness as a turning point. She says it inspires her to see other people the way that stranger saw her and to acknowledge what they might be going through.
“I think about this woman a lot. I'm kinder because of her. So I'm very grateful.”
24. Why did Gentile decide to stop wearing the wig?
A. It was out of fashion. B. It affected her public image.
C. It failed to cover her hair loss. D. It brought her physical discomfort.
25. What can we learn about Gentile from paragraph 3?
A. She hated to drive without the wig. B. She was anxious about her health state.
C. She was unwilling to be treated differently. D. She feared losing her professional position.
26. What happened to Gentile after she met the woman?
A. She pretended to be stronger. B. She recognized her own value.
C. She accepted herself confidently. D. She got sensitive to others' comments.
27. What message does the author convey in the text?

C. Courage is the key to overcoming disease. D. Appreciation contributes to true friendship.

At Cygnus School in the Netherlands, the school day is now phone-free. “Before, everyone glanced at their phones constantly,” says teacher Ms Peters. “Now it's calmer.” Students no longer fear being photographed and posted on social media platforms during breaks. “When kids are more relaxed, they learn better,” she adds.
Early data backs up her impressions. A study of 317 high schools found 75% reported better concentration after phone bans, and 66% saw improved social atmospheres. Other surveys show less bullying without phones. Fifteen-year-old Karel and Felix used to keep their phones by the bed and read messages immediately upon waking. Both initially wanted to transfer schools. Yet they adapted. “I haven't really felt a problem,” Karel adds, “I'd get used to it and find other things to do.” Felix now notices deeper changes: “People talk more, go to shops instead of sitting on phones. Connections are better.”
In the Netherlands, the debate has already moved onto social media. The Dutch government officially proposes that children under 15 should stay off social media, and wants a Europe-wide ban for this age group. They argue that if states can restrict alcohol, they should also act when platforms are addictive. Public opinion is shifting in their favour. A Unicef survey found 69% of Dutch children now support a social media ban for under-18s. Among people aged 16 to 18, support for age limits rose from 44% to 60% in one year. Former education minister Koen Becking explains: “Heavy social media use harms mental health and social skills. Kids are more distracted and anxious with devices.”
At the same time, the Dutch Research Council is now examining the unintended consequences of the smartphone ban, and whether being without a phone all day increases fear of missing out and causes more intensive phone use after school. The pupils all insist they do not overuse phones before and after school. For Dutch students, phone-free school life is becoming normal. The next question for the Netherlands is whether access to the social media apps should be “a thing of the past” too.
28. What does the first paragraph focus on?
A. The students' phone addiction. B. The debate on school phone use.
C. The benefits of the no-phone policy. D. The improvement in teaching methods.
29. What do Felix and Karel's experiences show?
A. Students tend to oppose new rules. B. Age can affect adaptation to phone bans.
C. Views on phone bans may change over time. D. Phone bans fail to change students' behavior.
30. What is Koen Becking's opinion?
A. He doubts the ban's real effect. B. He rejects Unicef's survey result.
C. He backs the government's proposal. D. He hopes for more data about teen health.
31. What may the Netherlands consider next according to the last paragraph?
A. Lifting the smartphone ban in schools. B. Banning social media access for students.
C. Limiting students' after-school phone use. D. Stopping the ongoing research on the ban.
D
A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb (电灯泡), while artificial intelligence systems use up much more electricity to do the same tasks. Now, scientists have created a highly efficient AI model that indicates how living brains are able to do so much with so little, a team reports in the journal Nature.
The model was designed to copy part of the brain's visual function. It originally had 60 million variables (参数), but researchers cut it down to a smaller version with just 10,000 variables while keeping almost the same performance. Besides, this compact model works more similarly to real brains, which may help scientists study brain diseases such as Alzheimer's.
Traditional AI can do similar work but needs powerful computers. Different from them, the team aimed to create a simpler and more energy-saving model. They trained the new model using data collected from monkeys and removed useless parts with common data reduction methods. Finally, they got a highly streamlined AI system. This understandable model simulates the visual cells called V4 cells.
This research also helps experts explore how the human brain operates. Many scientists have long tried to figure out how people recognize daily things like cats or dogs. Since it is hard to observe human brains directly while they work, researchers turn to AI for help. However, people still know little about how most complex AI systems run. The new model offers a clearer window into this process.
By studying this simple model, scientists found different roles of V4 cells: sensing colors, shapes and other visual details. Some react to rounded shapes like fruits in supermarkets, while others notice small spots in pictures, which explains why monkeys and humans easily notice eyes. The findings suggest that future AI can be made simpler and smaller without losing ability. However, the model also reveals gaps between AI and human cognition.
Even so, AI still has a long way to go. Unlike humans who can recognize faces in different situations easily, present AI struggles with such tasks. Experts point out that today's AI is built on old knowledge about the human brain, so people need to update the basic design of AI systems based on new brain research.
32. What is a feature of the compact model mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. Fast to construct. B. Cheap to produce.
C. Low in energy use. D. Easy to carry around.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The process of building the model. B. The way V4 cells deal with visual data.
C. The differences between two AI systems. D. The challenges of training the new model.
34. What can we learn about V4 cells from the text?
A. They help with object recognition. B. They are unique to monkey brains.
C. They detect the movements of objects. D. They consume more energy than other cells.
35. What is suggested about future AI in the last paragraph?
A. It should center on face recognition. B. It should keep pace with brain research.
C. It should be built on what has been known. D. It should imitate the human brain structure.

Nothing is worse than needing rain and then having a number of storms finally roll through only to leave your yard full of standing water. Fortunately, the easiest way to manage such issue in your yard is creating a rain garden.
36 They normally contain pollinator-friendly native plants because they have deeper roots than non-native decorative plants. So they are better able to absorb water instead of allowing it to pool and sit on the surface.
Even if standing water isn't a problem, rain gardens offer other advantages. Because they contain native plants, they provide habitats for important pollinators and attract more birds to your yard. 37 After a storm, runoff from your yard picks up rubbish and sometimes chemical pollutants, carrying them downhill to the nearest waterway. A rain garden stops this overflow by trapping the water and using soil and plant roots to purify it. 38 This also prevents flooding, as it keeps heavy rainwater from rushing into waterways all at once.
Then how to make your own rain garden? 39 It's easiest to choose an area that's already lower than the rest of your yard and tends to collect water. However, you'll also want to make sure the rain garden is at least 10 feet from your house and away from any underground facilities or tree roots.
Once you've found the perfect place, it's time to dig your garden and choose your plants. It's a good idea to plant a mixture of different kinds of plants. Luckily, because they're full of native plants, rain gardens don't need much care besides some weeding and watering during the first year. 40
A. To get started, select the right location.
B. All done, just relax and enjoy a better environment.
C. Many people love growing vegetables in their yards.
D. The clean water then recharges groundwater supplies.
E. Rain gardens can also help protect local water systems.
F. Rain gardens are easy-care plots in low-lying yard areas.
G. But remember to design one based on local rainfall conditions.

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。
Taylor started volunteering at the library only because her school required it. She was asked to help a second grader named Triana with reading. They met in the Reading Corner of the library every Wednesday afternoon.
On the first Wednesday, Triana opened a picture book and read in a slow, shaky voice, stopping after almost every word. The hour felt long. The next few Wednesdays were the same. Triana tried hard and always got stuck on simple words. Sometimes she got so frustrated that she pushed the book away. Taylor didn't know how to help. She just sat there, feeling useless.
At that time, Taylor had her own problem. She had always dreamed of performing in the school talent show, but the fear of failing and looking foolish held her back. She had already missed last year's show because she couldn't bring herself to sign up. Now next month's show was approaching, and the deadline to sign up was still four weeks away. Still, she hesitated.
One Wednesday afternoon, Triana pushed her book away again. Taylor watched her and realized something — Triana gave up because she didn't know how to get past the hard words. It reminded Taylor of her own fear of signing up. A thought struck her. She could reach out to help the little girl and together they might make some changes. That night, Taylor searched online for ways to help struggling readers. She found a simple trick: break long words into smaller parts.
The next Wednesday, Triana got stuck on “grasshopper”. Taylor told her not to give up but to break it into pieces. She covered half the word and had Triana read “grass”, then the other half for “hopper”. When she asked Triana to put them together, Triana's eyes lit up. “Grasshopper!” They both laughed.
Over the next few weeks, Triana's reading steadily improved, moving from picture books to short chapter books. Watching Triana struggle and keep going taught Taylor something important about not giving up.
