You don’t have to be a billionaire to launch a rocket; as a hobbyist, you can buy your own model rocket, and fire it thousands of feet into the air. What starts as a hobby could end with you taking humanity to Mars! So, to give you a head start, we are offering you the best model rocket deals.
Estes NASA SLS
US$90 now US$72
On the orange ship of NASA’s recent SLS rocket, this 1:200 scale model will reach a height of 350 feet and it comes pre-finished with a parachute.
Estes Long Ranger
US$20 now US$15
Estes Long Ranger can soar up to 1,100 feet with the right power system fitted, and then sail groundward with its parachute. Its eye-catching color match means you’re unlikely to miss it when it touches down.
Estes Mini Arcas
US$30 now US$12
Estes Mini Arcas is capable of hitting 550 feet, though you’ll have to supply your own engines and launch pad. Its pocket-friendly price makes it a good starting rocket for beginners.
Estes Blue Origin New Shepard
US$42 now US$36
You can save about 14% on this instantly recognizable ship. This isn’t the biggest saving available, but what’s cooler than having something recognizable fly through the air? It comes with its own parachute and will reach a height of 700 feet.

For six years, practising the piano every evening was far from an enjoyable family moment; instead, it turned into a daily contest of determination Many small troubles slowly grew more and more as days went by. Whenever Daniel, my 14-year-old boy, sat in front of the piano every night, I always kindly reminded him to play just half an hour. “Just thirty minutes, okay?” I asked him in a gentle voice.
For many years, he reacted with a sigh I could easily expect each night. He agreed unwillingly and played the piano carelessly, staring at the clock instead of his music paper. No passion. No progress. He had a rare illness called developmental dysrhythmia(发育性节奏障碍). It was hard for him to feel and copy music beats, which put an unseen block between him and the piano. Through it, I could see my boy trying his best, but I could never quite help him find the joy. The effortless musical conversations that other parents shared with their children felt like a fantasy. I felt like I was trying to move a huge rock upward with no progress at all. My constant encouragement met with a silent, yet understandable dismay. I had quietly begun to accept that music would never be his language.
But that snowy Wednesday night, after six years of silent patience, everything changed. I asked him the usual question and prepared for our usual argument. After I said “Just thirty minutes, Daniel?”, he sat down and replied softly “Okay”. It was a little change from what always happened before, but I almost failed to see it right away. Later he began to play the piano. In six years, it was the first time Daniel played an easy piece of music. It was a children's song he'd listened to on the radio, and he followed the music speed perfectly. His fingers found the right notes. He moved his body a little along with the music. He stopped, turned to me with tears in his eyes, and whispered, “Mom, I think I finally feel the beat.”
Everything around felt still. That short piece of music helped him connect his illness with music by himself. It was the nicest sound I had ever listened to. It wasn't just a song;it was the answer to six years of unseen patience. I held my breath, and tears streamed down my face. With a shaky voice, I told him, “I believed in you all the time.”
24. What did the mother always ask Daniel to do every night?
A. To play the piano for thirty minutes. B. To stare at the music paper carefully.
C. To move his body along with the music. D. To listen to a children's song on the radio.
25. What does the underlined word “dismay” in paragraph 2 most likely mean?
A. Victory. B. Discouragement. C. Anger. D. Determination.
26. What happened on the snowy Wednesday night?
A. Daniel broke the piano and cried by accident.
B. Daniel asked his mother to stop reminding him.
C. Daniel argued with his mother for the first time.
D. Daniel played a piece of music correctly with feeling.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Mother's Daily Complaint
B. Silent Patience, Beautiful Beat
C. How to Become a Piano Master
D. The Dangers of Forcing Children
C
Air pollution kills tens of thousands of people each year in cities across Nepal, Ethiopia and Malawi. To help, researchers from the University of Surrey have developed three new evidence-based toolkits that guide planners on how to use urban greening—planting trees, hedges and parks—to cut pollution exposure, cool overheating streets, and ease flood risk.
The toolkits, co-authored with local scientists and government partners in each country, draw on years of peer-reviewed research. Continuous hedges around two metres in height, with thick, hairy or waxy leaves, can reduce roadside pollution by up to 63%. Mixed planting that combines trees and hedges can cut roadside pollution by up to 52% in open road conditions. Urban parks and tree cover can also lower local land surface temperatures by 2 to 4°C during peak summer periods.
But green is not always good. Each toolkit also flags common mistakes—such as planting trees in narrow street canyons, where they can actually trap polluted air close to the ground rather than clear it. “The wrong tree in the wrong place can make things worse, not better,” researchers warn.
Professor Prashant Kumar, Director of the Global Centre for Clean Air Research, explained why context matters so much. “Urban greening works best when it is designed for the place it serves. The pressures on cities in Nepal, Ethiopia and Malawi are not the same as those in the UK, and the right response has to reflect local climate, water availability, vegetation and the way people actually use public space.”
Local officials have welcomed the new guidance. Ganesh Paudel, Joint Secretary at Nepal's Ministry of Forests and Environment, said the practical Nepali examples made the toolkit “contextual and adaptable” for local planners. “It will help build local capacity and support evidence-based planning,” he added.
The takeaway, the researchers stress, is that urban greening is not a one-size-fits-all solution. To deliver real benefits—cleaner air, cooler streets and healthier people—every planting decision must be matched to the place it serves.
28. Why did the researchers develop the three new toolkits?
A. To study air pollution deaths in three countries.
B. To replace parks with trees and hedges in cities.
C. To help planners use greening to tackle urban problems.
D. To compare greening methods between the UK and Nepal.
29. What does the underlined word “hedges” in paragraph 2 probably refer to?
A. Rows of thick leafy bushes. B. Climbing plants on city walls.
C. Tall individual trees lining the road. D. Open pockets of grass and flowers.
30. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Greening is always good for cities. B. Poorly planned greening can backfire.
C. Trees work best in narrow street canyons. D. Hedges reduce pollution better than trees.
31. What may Kumar and Paudel both emphasize?
A. Tailoring greening to local conditions.
B. Following universal greening standards.
C. Speeding up planting before further research.
D. Relying on foreign expertise over local input.
D
Artificial intelligence (AI) is putting itself into our daily lives, from the moment we unlock our phones with facial recognition to the recommendations that guide our music playlists or online shopping. Understanding how this powerful technology will change our daily activities and experiences is significant. But that isn’t the whole picture. We also need to pay close attention to how we build and shape AI itself, and what that process shows us about ourselves.
Every AI system we create functions as a mirror, clearly reflecting our values and views. Consider hiring algorithms (算法). In 2018, a large USA firm gave up an AI-powered hiring tool after discovering it was one-sided against female applicants. The AI wasn’t programmed to differentiate, but it was trained on historical hiring data that favored men, and it learned to reproduce these models. The use of AI systems in the police area, healthcare, and education reveals similar patterns. In all these cases, AI isn’t creating new unfair opinions. Instead, it is reflecting existing ones.
As long as AI is trained on human data, it will reflect human behavior. That means we have to think carefully about the traces of ourselves we leave in the world. I may claim to value privacy, but if I give it up in a heartbeat to access a website, the algorithms may make a very different judgement of what I really want and what is good for me. If I claim to want meaningful human connections yet spend more time on social media and less time in the physical company of my friends, I am training AI models about the true nature of humanity. AI not only reveals problems within the systems, but also clearly shows people’s inner struggles. As AI grows stronger, we must try harder to make sure our actions follow our principles.
As we continue to integrate (融合) AI into our lives, we must recognize that these systems don’t just predict our behavior; they reflect our character. Reflecting on that reflection allows us to make better, more principled choices, but only if we’re willing to look closely and take responsibility for what we see.
32. What does “the whole picture” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. The process of building and shaping AI.
B. The takeover of AI in our everyday life.
C. The dilemma of AI in decision-making.
D. The interplay between AI and humans.
33. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning hiring algorithms?
A. To support an argument. B. To state a phenomenon.
C. To showcase a practice. D. To oppose an opinion.
34. What does the author advise us to do?
A. Hide emotional struggles. B. Delete historical database.
C. Suit the action to the word. D. Avoid AI in sensitive areas.
35. What does the underlined part “that reflection” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. AI melts into our lives. B. AI mirrors our mindset.
C. We make wise choices. D. We remain responsible.

Going Barefoot in Nature
Going barefoot on grass, sand, or soil may seem like a simple childhood habit. Yet today, more adults are rediscovering it as a meaningful way to reconnect with nature. 36 The idea centers on direct contact between the skin and the natural surface of the Earth.
37 In modern life, many of us spend most of our time indoors, surrounded by concrete and screens. As a result, opportunities to experience nature directly have become increasingly rare. Walking barefoot offers a simple way to slow down and become more aware of the world around us.
Whether you are walking along a beach, standing on cool grass, or sitting beneath a tree, direct contact with nature often stimulates your senses. 38 As your attention shifts away from daily worries and toward the present moment, you may begin to feel calmer and more focused.
Of course, going barefoot should be both regular and safe. So try to avoid stepping on sharp stones or glass. 39
More importantly, going barefoot reminds us that humans are part of nature rather than separate from it. 40 By taking time to experience the natural world directly, we may develop a greater appreciation for the environment around us.
A. Why does such a simple activity matter today?
B. This practice is called “earthing” or “grounding”.
C. However, doctors warn this habit may cause injuries.
D. It also encourages you to observe the world around you.
E. And choose locations for a pleasant and worry-free experience.
F. These experiences can become more enjoyable when practiced regularly.
G. This small act bridges the gap between us and nature via physical contact.

But she says she hopes other artists won’t follow with their own unofficial wall hangings.
“I hope all artists respect what museums do, and 48 that temptation (诱惑),” she said. “Today, the vast majority of the time we look at artwork is on a phone.

I wonder if museums might 52 having Open Wall nights, the way comedy clubs have Open Mic nights. Let people who paint put their work on a real museum wall for a night, with 53 .

67. 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。
I was incredibly proud of my school, the Maplewood Elementary. It connected me to my roots, as my father and grandfather had all graduated from here.
So, when our teacher Mr. Dow announced a group project to create a brochure (小册子) about our school for its 100th anniversary, I was thrilled. The best three brochures would be displayed in the school library, which was a chance to show the new students how wonderful our school was.
I was paired with two classmates: Jake, who loved photography, and Lily who had a gift for writing. Working with others could be fun, right? But my enthusiasm quickly faded.
Our first meeting was a disaster. When we discussed which part of the school we should focus on, Jake kept talking about cameras and photos. I turned to Lily, hoping for some support. But she simply shrugged and said, “I’m not really into this. It sounds boring.” Jake nodded in agreement. The project seemed to be harder than I thought.
At our next meeting, I tried to lead the conversation back to the project. I shared some interesting facts I had researched about the school. However, neither of them seemed interested. Jake had promised to gather materials from the library, but instead he showed us photos taken on the weekend. Lily hadn’t started her part of the research either, claiming she had been too busy. I felt like I was the only one who cared.
Back home, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I stayed up late that night, trying to create the brochure by myself. But no matter how hard I tried, the result was far from satisfactory. I was exhausted and disheartened. My mom noticed I was upset. “You can’t do this alone,” she gently reminded me. “Jake and Lily have talents that can make this project shine. You just need to find a way to get them involved.”

第一节 应用文(辩论赛发言稿)
Dear fellow students,
I firmly believe primary and middle schools should set a spring break.
First, after a long cold winter and heavy study tasks, students need time to relax. A short spring holiday lets us get close to nature and reduce study pressure. Besides, spring break offers chances to travel with families or take part in volunteer activities, which helps us gain social experience we cannot learn from textbooks.
Short breaks won’t affect our grades as long as we make reasonable study plans. Therefore, spring break is necessary for teenagers’ all-round development.
Thank you.
第二节 读后续写参考范文
With only three days left, I knew I had to act. I calmed myself down and thought about each of my partners’ strengths. I found Jake and Lily and sincerely told them I valued their talents. I suggested Jake take photos of our campus buildings and students, while Lily wrote warm articles about our school’s history. I would organize all materials and design the layout of the brochure. They were surprised by my plan and agreed to devote spare time to the project. We three cooperated closely every day, exchanging ideas and adjusting the design together.
On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. Our work contained vivid photos, touching stories and neat layout, winning warm applause from classmates and Mr. Dow. Eventually, our brochure was chosen to be shown in the library. This project taught me a valuable lesson: every team member has unique shining points, and real success comes from sincere cooperation rather than doing everything alone.
