ON TRACK Screenless fitness trackers are the new trend in wearable workout gear.The first new Fitbit since 2023 enters that market,which competitors like Whoop and Oura have muscled into in recent years.The Fitbit Air is considerably cheaper than those options,and integrates with Google's updated Health app.The tracker covers basic metrics like heart rate,blood oxygen and motion data during activity and sleep.All data is processed in the app with an Al coach available for an additional $7.99 per month. Google Fitbit Air f84.99,store.google.com GOOD TIMING If time is running out to meaningfully slow down climate change,here's a watch to both monitor the countdown and also feel slightly better about it.Detrash is a British watchmaking brand using recycled ocean plastics,steel and fashion industry offcuts to create its timepieces.The watches-from dress to dive styles-come in at under 500. Most lincs are limited editions,so if you see one you like,time is probably running out. Detrash 'Midnight Flamingo' Fromf375,detrash.com PLASTIC PROGRESS Up to 500,000 tonnes of textile microplastics enter the oceans every year,much from washing machines.Now,effective microplastic filters()are being introduced, including a 2025 Moonshot Prize winner.Developed by Bristol-based Matter,the Regen filter can be built into machines or bought separately and installed at home.The company claims 97%effectiveness.It needs emptying every six weeks,with no replacement filters required.

On that day,I came home from work,stopped her from entering the kitchen and asked her to dine out."Has Lily called?"she asked.I shook my head.The atmosphere at the dinner was oppressive.My wife kept glancing at her phone,showing no signs of appetite. Early the next morning,my wife got up,dark rings encircling her eyes.We only have one child.When Lily still lived at home,every year when her birthday approached,we would start the grand preparations days in advance.And after she left for college,my wife would call her countless times from morning till night.How could she ignore all our love and utterly forget her mum's birthday?On the way to work,I texted Lily,"Your mum didn't sleep well last night." Another day concluding.we were about to go to bed when there was a sound of a key rattling in the lock.In came our daughter,face red with cold,birthday cake in hand."Sorry, Mum.Happy birthday!"she said,tears welling up.Immediately.my wife pulled Lily into a hug,complaining,"You silly girl,why do you come all the way back at such a time?Don't you know it is cold outside?" 下”””””” C③扫描全能王 备然病3红人直用的日集A0e Lily just stayed two hours in case of missing her classes.Secing Lily boarding the train, my wife started blaming me for that message,yet in a better mood.I did feel I handled this matter perfectly both for my wife and my child's growth. Later,I called my parents and told them about it.I never thought they would respond with a long silence,and then said:"How many times have you forgotten our birthdays?Has either of us ever complained?" 24.What does the underlined word"oppressive"mean in paragraph 2? A.Relaxing. B.Funny. C.Unique. D.Heavy. 25.What can be inferred about the woman in paragraph 3? A.She blamed Lily for her rudeness. B.She cared little about birthday celebrations. C.Some anxiety could be felt from the woman. D.She wasn't satisfied with her dinner. 26.Why did Lily burst into tears on seeing her mother? A.She was overjoyed to see her mother.

D.She pitied herself for being half-frozen all the way back. 27.What message is conveyed from the words of the author's parents? A.Love is a two-way street. B.Birthday party is a must. C.Children should repay their parents'love. D.It is never too late to say sorry. C Getting the most out of going to galleries involves more than just showing up.While a casual approach-"I don't know much about art,but I know what I like"-might satisfy some,truly appreciating a painting requires a determination to go deeper. Trust your eyes.The visual arts are not called the visual arts for nothing.Art is made to be looked at.And when your eyes decide whether they like something or not,they are drawing on the experience of a lifetime.So trust your eyes when they whisper their first impressions.Why do so many people love Van Gogh's Sunflowers?The moment you see them,they feel uplifting,joyous,and instantly pleasurable,reminding your eyes of the colour,mood and joy of a sunny day. Your eyes may be the most important organ for looking at art,but the heart runs them a close second.When we look at a painting,we get somebody's message sent to us.One heart is trying to speak to another.Take Daughters Chasing a Butterfly by Thomas Gainsborough for example.The first thing to feel is,of course,the artist's love for his little girls.To my eyes,it's cntirely unmissable.The two girls,their faces recorded with so much insider skills, are chasing a butterfly,which has landed on a prickly plant.When they try to grab it,they might get hurt.So a loving daddy hasn't just painted his love for his daughters.He has also painted-and this is where the heart comes in-his fears for them. If you judge art by your own level of competence or understanding,you're looking at art through a blindfold.In Truner's The Fighting Temeraire,the old boat,bathed in an orange and purple sunset,is packed with significance and symbolism about a lost life and the end of the road.Just look at the power,the intensity,the volcanic brilliance of his depiction().Instead of limiting your appreciation to what you like,expand it to include what many others have liked before you. Like all life's profound pleasures,looking at art is a complex business.More accurately,it's a pleasure with many layers and stages.But for the experienced art lover,the real joy is in the build-up,the delicious joumney,the awesome pay-off. 28.What are viewers advised to do first in looking at art? A.Go over the history of art. B.Draw on artists'experience. C.Compare with other artwork. D.Rely on initial visual impressions. 29.Why is Gainsborough's painting mentioned in paragraph 3? A.Love is popular in family-themed paintings B.Viewing art involves heart-to-heart connection. C.Art is a visual record of an artist's personal life. D.Viewers are easily struck by the skills of artists. 30.What does the author suggest about judging art in paragraph 4? A.Considering others'opinions. B.Trusting your own judgment. C.Sticking to personal taste. D.Turning to realistic works. 31.What is the text mainly about? A.How to better engage with art. B.How to read artists'emotion. C.How to better evaluate visual arts. D.How to analyze famous paintings. C③扫描全能王 资3纪人草直用的日播Ap= D Beneath the Pacific lies the Clarion-Clipperton Zone(CCZ),where tens of billions of polymetallic nodules(多金属结核)are packed with cobalt(钴).Seabed-mining companies promote them as"a battery in a rock"and "the easiest way to solve climate change."They claim that those nodules can provide metals for 4.8 billion electric vehicles. Yet this promise threatens a biological treasure.Marine biologists reveal the CCZ shelters over 5,000 unique species in the darkness.The extensive mining of cobalt may lead to the loss of biodiversity.A company claimed to have found a solution to minimize the damage to the ecology and has already trialed a 25-ton collector robot designed to harvest these nodules.However,a 2023 study shows it can cause permanent destruction in the area. Commercial mining is not yet permitted in intemational waters.The International Seabed Authority (ISA)is still determining how,and under what conditions,mining should be allowed.After 28 years of debate,its 168 member states still lack formal agreement. While companies advocate using nodule-collecting robots,437 scientists from 44 countries demand an immediate stop.ISA studies confirm that just 10%mining of the CCZ may wipe out 50%of its species. Nor is it certain that cobalt mining will even be all that important in car-battery technology.Many battery companies are trying to recycle cobalt from spent batteries.In March,several major European carmakers jointly stated that they would not buy any metals produced from deep-sea mining before the environmental risks are "completely understood".Meanwhile,several Chinese electric vehicle producers have already made the switch,recycling up to 95%of metals from used batteries."Why rush to mine the ocean for metals becoming outdated?"said battery expert Gavin Harper. On June 8,21 marine scicntists from 8 universities finished a six-week research in the CCZ and packed up seafloor samples to take back to their labs for further analysis."An assessment of the mining's impact will take years of research,"says Andrew from Edinburgh."I'm trying to get the best environmental data.And then it's up to society to make the decision to go ahead." 32.Why are the nodules called "a battery in a rock"? A.They contain valuable metals. B.They have recharging qualities. C.They own battery-like structures. D.They gencrate renewable power. 33.What can be inferred about the ISA? A.It prioritizes economic interests. B.It is cautious about seabed mining. C.It opposes commercial operations. D.It requires more technical support. 34.What does the author want to illustrate in Paragraph 4? A.Deep-sea mining meets demands. B.Carmakers reuse battery materials C.Battery recycling needs promoting. D.Seabed mining for cobalt can wait. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Marine Mining,a Green Solution B.Cobalt,the Future of Batteries C.Ocean Metals,an Ocean Risk? D.CCZ,the Treasure Unknown? 第二节（共5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。 It used to be simple:if you were stuck on homework,you went to a tutor or looked through a textbook.Today,many students admit their first instinct (is to open short-video apps.36 And here's the catch:while short-form video makes information accessible,are students actually learning or just scrolling(滚屏)？ Students aren't choosing short videos to study by accident,it fits the way their brains are wired in today's world.Studies suggest the average attention span has dropped to around 8-12 seconds.Quick videos match that rhythm.Instead of sitting through a 45-minute lecture,students can learn one concept or definition in a minute.Short videos also turn idle time,like waiting for the bus,into learning opportunities.37 However,for every upside,there's a hidden drawback that students often feel but don't always recognize.Short videos sometimes oversimplify-students may remember a "fun fact"but struggle to apply it in problem-solving.Constant exposure to fast content trains the brain to expect stimulation,making complex reading or full lectures harder to sit through. 38 Students can end up overwhelmed,recalling bits of many topics but mastering none. Here's where it gets tricky.Short-video platforms aren't built for studying,they 're built for endless scrolling.That means students who go in looking for a"quick explainer" often end up an hour dcep into unrelated content.39 Students describe feeling"busy" while scrolling through study content,but later realize they didn't remember much. 40 The reality is,it's both.Short-form content is a tool,not a replacement. Students who use it as a supplement to traditional learning gain the best of both worlds: C③扫描全能王 富然额3元人想直用的日量A0e quick tips and deeper practice.Those who depend only on it often face burnout,divided attention,or surface-level understanding A.So,is short-form video helping or hurting? B.This makes leamning fit easily into daily life. C.Many creators make money by posting educational short clips. D.To them,such videos don't just entertain but feel like learning. E.Short videos make students unable to finish homework within fixed time. F.Besides,too many short videos,brief as they are,can cause information overload. G.This unclear line between entertainment and education makes it harder to manage time. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的 最佳选项。 A woman who hated her body has shared an important message on Instagram about how exercise has greatly changed her.It has improved not only her build but also her 41 In a video clip shared by Cheryl,she 42 the difference between "wanting to lose weight to look good"and "losing weight to feel good".The video showcases her 22-pound weight-loss journey,which has been far from 43.She told Newsweek about the documented highs and lows,which 44 more than 1.1 million views online She said:"I wanted to show the realistic side of a(n)45 weight loss while sending out a message that the mindset shift is the most powerful part of the journey."

One day,while cleaning the science lab,Lily accidentally knocked over Emma's model car,on which she had spent weeks,breaking it into pieces on the floor."My model car!You should have been more careful!"she screamed at Lily.Red-faced,Lily apologized and rushed out,fighting back her tears. Two weeks later,when their teacher announced a robotics competition,the whole class came alive."You'll work in pairs to build a robot that can get through an obstacle course( a碍赛道)，"Emma was excited about building a robot,which was her long-held hobby. However,when she learned that Lily was her partner,she turned away,avoiding Lily's eager eyes. "Well,I can make it all,"Emma whispered.She turned to her notebook and focused on her design.In the following days,she simply ignored Lily's attempts to approach,let alone their pair meetings as scheduled. Sensing Emma's unwillingness to cooperate,Lily decided to work on her own.She spent quite a lot of time sketching designs in the quiet lab.One afternoon,as she worked late,she noticed a half-built robot sitting in the corner,something Emma had started but left unfinished.She looked closer and froze.The wires (had been connected the wrong way-if turned on,it might explode.Just as Lily reached out to examine it,the door opened. 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。 Emma stood still in the doorway,eyes wide in surprise.
