I recently moved back to my hometown, York, a small city in England. It has a long history and a lively culture, but not many trees for shade. In recognition of urban trees’ benefits, the city plans to plant 4,000 trees, starting with the creation of two “micro woods” near the city center. However, planting thousands of trees doesn’t guarantee success. It’s important to choose carefully what to plant and where and — to care for what’s already there.
One of the main benefits of urban trees is that they keep cities cool by providing shade and transpiration. This cooling effect will only become more important as the climate warms. In the meantime, however, climate change is threatening urban trees. Ecologist Stephan Pauleit and his team found a major increase in tree death rate during summer heatwaves. The loss of mature trees is a major problem. According to Pauleit, an 80-year-old tree cools the air and stores carbon ten times better than a 20-year-old one.
There are other threats, including invasive species. Two species of longhorn beetles (天牛), for example, can eat a tree to death. A study found that a serious outbreak of either of these harmful insects could kill a quarter of the trees in some cities. These problems are worsened by the limited diversity of urban trees. In some cities, just five species account for three quarters of trees. Such trees are tried and tested choices, but as the climate warms, they may no longer be fit for purpose.
Thus, cities need to plant with the future in mind. Researcher Henrik Sjoman has identified candidates like the chestnut-leaved oak and Lebanese wild apple that tolerate extreme conditions the best.
I went to one of the micro woods in York. There are about 50 saplings (幼树) that will take decades to mature. I am rooting for them, but I fear the world where they are growing up won’t be kind to them.
24. What does the author think is vital for the tree planting plan?
A. Preserving the existing trees.
B. Creating more urban micro woods.
C. Developing a lively local culture.
D. Replacing the badly damaged roots.
25. What do we know about urban mature trees?
A. They survive heatwaves better.
B. They show a stronger cooling effect.
C. They stop the climate from warming.
D. They recover from insect attacks faster.
26. What has led urban forests to higher risks?
A. Random choice of trees.
B. Poor variety of trees.
C. Inability to store carbon.
D. Frequent outbreaks of new insects.
27. What can be inferred about the newly planted saplings in York?
A. They may face challenges in the future.
B. They may soon provide enough shade.
C. They can prevent longhorn beetles.
D. They can tolerate extreme conditions.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文作者从自己回到英国约克的亲身经历出发,探讨城市植树计划面临的真正挑战。

【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“These problems are worsened by the limited diversity of urban trees.(城市树木多样性不足,使得这些问题愈发严峻。)”可知,树种多样性匮乏致使城市林木风险升高。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“There are about 50 saplings (幼树) that will take decades to mature. I am rooting for them, but I fear the world where they are growing up won’t be kind to them.(这片林地有约50株幼树,需要几十年才能长成大树。我由衷盼望它们好好存活,却担心它们赖以成长的未来环境不会善待它们。)”可知,从约克新栽幼树能推出它们未来或将面临生存考验。
C
A newly engineered molecule acts like a “rechargeable” solar heat battery, storing sunlight and releasing it on demand. Solar energy has one persistent weakness: it disappears at sunset. Finding a reliable way to store that energy for later use remains one of the biggest obstacles to expanding renewable power.
A research team at UC Santa Barbara may have found an unexpected workaround. Instead of relying on conventional batteries, they created a small organic molecule that captures sunlight, locks that energy into its structure, and releases it later as heat.
To understand the idea, Nguyen points to a familiar example. “Think of photochromic sunglasses (光致变色太阳镜). When you’re inside, they’re just clear lenses. You walk out into the sun, and they darken on their own. Come back inside, and the lenses become clear again,” Nguyen said. “That kind of reversible change is what we’re interested in. Only instead of changing color, we want to use the same idea to store energy, release it when we need it, and then reuse the material over and over.”
To build this molecule, the researchers turned to DNA for inspiration. The pyrimidone structure (嘧啶酮结构) resembles a DNA component that can reversibly change its form when exposed to UV light. By creating a synthetic version, the team designed a molecule capable of repeatedly storing and releasing energy. They worked with Ken Houk, a distinguished research professor at UCLA, using computational modeling to understand how the molecule can hold energy while remaining stable for years.
“We prioritized a lightweight, compact molecule design,” Nguyen said. “For this project, we cut everything we didn’t need. Anything that was unnecessary, we removed to make the molecule as compact as possible.”Unlike solar panels that generate electricity, this system stores solar energy in chemical form. The molecule behaves like a coiled spring. When exposed to sunlight, it shifts into a strained, high energy configuration. It remains in that state until triggered by heat or a catalyst, which allows it to return to its original form and release the stored energy as heat.
“We typically describe it as a rechargeable solar battery,” Nguyen said. “It stores sunlight, and it can be recharged.” The critical breakthrough for Han’s group was translating high energy density into a tangible result. In the study, the researchers demonstrated that the heat released from the material was intense enough to boil water — a feat previously difficult to achieve in this field.
28. What is the key solution to solar energy’s biggest limitation?
A. Using conventional batteries to store solar power
B. Applying the new organic molecule to store heat
C. Saving sunlight for nighttime electricity production
D. Updating solar devices to generate power nonstop
29. Why did the researchers simplify and compact the structure of the molecule?
A. To copy the basic form of natural human DNA
B. To guarantee its high energy density for boiling water
C. To improve its practical performance in real-life application
D. To prevent it from changing forms under strong sunlight
30. Which diagram best shows the molecule’s energy storage and release process?
A. B.
C. D.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. An Innovative Molecule: Rechargeable Solar Heat Storage
B. Daily Applications of Advanced DNA Technology
C. Comparison Between Solar Panels and New Batteries
D. Simple Methods to Produce Boiling Water
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述新型有机分子可储存太阳能并按需释放热量。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Instead of relying on conventional batteries, they created a small organic molecule that captures sunlight, locks that energy into its structure, and releases it later as heat.(他们没有依靠传统电池,而是研发出一种小型有机分子,该分子能捕获阳光、将能量锁存在自身结构中,之后以热量形式释放出来。)”以及第一段中“Solar energy has one persistent weakness: it disappears at sunset. Finding a reliable way to store that energy for later use remains one of the biggest obstacles to expanding renewable power.(太阳能有一个长期存在的短板:日落之后能量就消失了。找到可靠方式储存太阳能供后续使用,仍是推广可再生能源最大阻碍之一。)”可知,解决太阳能短板的核心方案是使用新型有机分子储存热量。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中““We prioritized a lightweight, compact molecule design,” Nguyen said. “For this project, we cut everything we didn’t need. Anything that was unnecessary, we removed to make the molecule as compact as possible.”Unlike solar panels that generate electricity, this system stores solar energy in chemical form. The molecule behaves like a coiled spring. When exposed to sunlight, it shifts into a strained, high energy configuration. It remains in that state until triggered by heat or a catalyst, which allows it to return to its original form and release the stored energy as heat.(阮表示:“我们优先选择了轻量化、结构紧凑的分子设计,在这个项目里,我们砍掉了所有不必要的部分,把冗余结构全部移除,让分子尽可能小巧。”和发电的太阳能板不同,这套系统以化学形式储存太阳能,分子就像一根被拧紧的弹簧:暴露在阳光下时,它会切换到受力的高能构型,一直维持这个状态,直到被热量或催化剂触发,才会变回原本的形态,同时把储存的能量以热量的形式释放出来。)”可知,轻量化、紧凑设计是为了提升实际使用性能,方便现实应用。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“The molecule behaves like a coiled spring. When exposed to sunlight, it shifts into a strained, high energy configuration.

Pictures and videos of all sorts of animals regularly go viral these days because people connect with the apparent joy, friendship and playfulness of these animals. Unfortunately, the initial enthusiasm of these posts is often squashed by someone rightly noting that the animal’s reaction is not joy or pleasure, but fear, anger or pain.
The reason we often get cases like this wrong is that we interpret the emotional content of many behaviors automatically and unconsciously. This is a version of anthropomorphism: interpreting animals as we would interpret another human. The standard view has been that anthropomorphism is primarily an error of overestimating the intelligence of animals. In recent decades, many authors have pushed back against this attitude towards anthropomorphism, arguing animals are a lot like us and that many “anthropomorphic” claims about animals are actually true.
Instead of getting caught in a black-and-white debate, however, I want a more complicated, informed discussion of competing ideas. Once we agree that animals do in fact, have emotions, we can acknowledge that the anthropomorphic mistake is not seeing emotion where there is none — it is seeing the wrong emotion.
Each of us has a set of perceptual, emotional and cognitive capacities that allow us to engage and understand one another socially. These capacities help guide and structure all sorts of interactions, and we are generally not even aware we are using them. They are generally, but not perfectly, tuned for human interaction. Things can get messy, though, when we use them to interpret animals. Perhaps the best-studied version of this is the primate “grin” (灵长类动物的咧嘴笑). The animal is not happy, it turns out. The exact signaling function varies by species, but it usually signals something more like fear or anxiety, often by a submissive individual in a tense social situation. This is, in fact, anthropomorphism, because you are interpreting an animal’s behavior in the same way we would interpret human behavior. This kind of anthropomorphism is a form of cognitive bias (偏见) resulting from shortcuts taken by our reasoning processes, usually without our awareness.
We should approach the topic of anthropomorphism from the angle of bias. Traditionally, assumptions about how and when people anthropomorphise have been so fixed that the psychology did not seem worth investigating. Slightly different attitudes can be found. For example, even though they advocate for anthropomorphic views of animals, the zoologists Jesus Rivas and Gordon Burghardt memorably note that it can be tricky: “Anthropomorphism comes in many forms and can catch you off guard!” While the recognition of “many forms” is progress, it makes the need for evidence-based research only more pressing. By focusing on implicit (隐性的) anthropomorphism, we shift attention from debating specific “humanlike” features to examining the deeper psychological mechanisms that make anthropomorphism so slippery. This, I believe, is the most challenging and most significant dimension of the problem.
32. What does the word “squashed” underlined in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Awakened. B. Dampened. C. Misguided. D. Underestimated.
33. What can we learn about anthropomorphism?
A. It turns animals’ negative emotions into positive ones
B. It underrates the emotional capacities of animal species.
C. It contributes to the shortcuts of our reasoning processes.
D. It reflects the projection of human qualities onto animals
34. The author quotes Jesus and Gordon to ________.
A. confirm the value of anthropomorphism
B. highlight the complexity of anthropomorphism
C. warn us of the limitations of anthropomorphism
D. remind us to view anthropomorphism positively
35. What does the author intend to do by writing this passage?
A. Propose a fresh perspective. B. Analyze a worrying tendency.
C. Evaluate the credibility of a theory. D. Explore the origin of a phenomenon.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要探讨了人类对动物行为的拟人化解释现象,指出这往往源于认知偏差,并呼吁从偏见角度深入研究这一复杂问题。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Pictures and videos of all sorts of animals regularly go viral these days because people connect with the apparent joy, friendship and playfulness of these animals. Unfortunately, the initial enthusiasm of these posts is often squashed by someone rightly noting that the animal’s reaction is not joy or pleasure, but fear, anger or pain.(如今,各类动物的图片和视频时常在网上疯传,因为人们会被这些动物流露出的喜悦、友谊和嬉戏感所打动。不幸的是,这些帖子的最初热情常常被一些人_____,他们有理有据地指出,动物的反应不是喜悦或快乐,而是恐惧、愤怒或痛苦)”可知,动物的反应是恐惧、愤怒或痛苦,而不是人们所以为的喜悦或快乐,因此人们对这些帖子的热情会减弱,故划线词squashed意为“减弱,受到抑制”,与“Dampened”意思相近。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“This is a version of anthropomorphism: interpreting animals as we would interpret another human. (这是一种拟人化:像解读另一个人一样解读动物)”可知,拟人化用解读人的方式来解读动物,反映了将人类特质投射到动物身上的现象。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“For example,even though they advocate for anthropomorphic views of animals, the zoologists Jesus Rivas and Gordon Burghardt memorably note that it can be tricky: “Anthropomorphism comes in many forms and can catch you off guard!” (例如,动物学家Jesus Rivas和Gordon Burghardt虽然主张对动物采取拟人化的看法,但他们特别指出,这可能会很棘手:“拟人化有多种形式,可能会让你措手不及!”)”可知,作者引用Jesus和Gordon的话是为了说明拟人化并非简单的问题,它形式多样,容易让人在不经意间犯错,从而强调了拟人化这一现象的复杂性。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合最后一段中“We should approach the topic of anthropomorphism from the angle of bias. Traditionally, assumptions about how and when people anthropomorphise have been so fixed that the psychology did not seem worth investigating...By focusing on implicit (隐性的) anthropomorphism, we shift attention from debating specific “humanlike” features to examining the deeper psychological mechanisms that make anthropomorphism so slippery. This, I believe, is the most challenging and most significant dimension of the problem. (我们应该从偏见的角度来探讨拟人化这一话题。传统上,关于人们如何以及何时进行拟人化的假设太过固定,以至于其背后的心理机制似乎不值得研究。……通过关注隐性拟人化,我们将注意力从争论具体的“类人”特征转移到审视使拟人化如此难以捉摸的更深层次的心理机制上。我相信,这是这个问题最具挑战性也最有意义的维度)”可知,作者分析了拟人化的现象、问题及成因,并指出传统研究的不足,进而提出从“偏见”和“心理机制”角度研究拟人化的新方向。因此,作者通过写这篇文章旨在提出一个新的研究视角。
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。
I’m dancing on top of a mountain after 570m of elevation (海拔) gain. I want to scream.
____36____ But it’s because of joy — overcoming the discomfort of an illness to arrive at this spot. As a university student, I struggle with exhaustion and poor vision. I would avoid events and barely had any social life. Gradually, people stopped asking if I was depressed, because everybody was sure I was. After more than 10 years of medical consultations, I was finally able to say to people, “ ____37____ I suffer from a disease called myasthenia, which causes the muscles to become weak and the body to experience extreme tiredness.”
The diagnosis (诊断) was a relief, but it came with a price: ____38____ I started to travel alone way before my diagnosis. I’ve always felt the need to explore. I honestly don’t know where my desire to travel came from. It’s always been there.
But how could this possibly fit with my condition? My mind was spinning at the mere thought of not being able to travel and discover the world. The first four months after the diagnosis were a nightmare. I went on a strict diet and took pills. Everyone around me was constantly checking in on me. ____39____ I wanted to feel tired — to put my body under stress and see what would happen. I wanted to be scared by the unknown because this is the beauty of life. So I did it in my own way, following my body’s needs and carefully choosing to break some rules.
That’s how travel has helped strengthen me. I didn’t want to let a disease define my identity and control me. I wanted to prove that a positive attitude can be a pass to a better life. ____40____
A. I am not depressed.
B. And I’ve made it now.
C. My cheeks are wet with tears.
D. The trust from them brought a ray of hope.
E. Doctors confirmed I was suffering from depression.
F. Intense physical exercise may take away my ability to move freely.
G. But I decided I would never allow the disease to influence the rhythm of my life.
【答案】36. C 37. A 38. F 39. G 40. B

【36题详解】
上一段“I’m dancing on top of a mountain after 570m of elevation (海拔) gain. I want to scream.(在海拔上升570米后,我在山顶上跳舞。我想尖叫)”描述了作者登顶后的激动心情,C选项“My cheeks are wet with tears.(我的脸颊被泪水浸湿了)”承接上文,进一步描绘了作者激动落泪的状态;下文“But it’s because of joy — overcoming the discomfort of an illness to arrive at this spot.(但这是因为喜悦——克服疾病的不适来到这个地方)”解释了流泪的原因——因战胜疾病带来的喜悦,与C选项中的“tears”相呼应,上下文语意连贯。
【37题详解】
上文“After more than 10 years of medical consultations, I was finally able to say to people, (经过十多年的医疗咨询,我终于能够对人们说:)”指出作者终于可以明确告诉他人自己的情况,A选项“I am not depressed.(我没有抑郁)”承接上文,直接引述作者要说的话——澄清自己并非抑郁;下文“I suffer from a disease called myasthenia, which causes the muscles to become weak and the body to experience extreme tiredness.(我患有一种叫做肌无力的疾病,它会导致肌肉无力,身体极度疲劳)”进一步说明真正的病因,与A选项形成先否定旧误解、再说明真实情况的逻辑关系。
【38题详解】
上文“The diagnosis (诊断) was a relief, but it came with a price: (诊断是一种解脱,但它也带来了代价:)”指出确诊既有好处也有代价,F选项“Intense physical exercise may take away my ability to move freely.(剧烈的体力运动可能会夺走我自由活动的能力)”承接上文,具体说明这个“代价”是什么——剧烈运动会加重病情;下文“I started to travel alone way before my diagnosis.(早在确诊之前,我就开始独自旅行了)”中的“travel”与F选项中的“physical exercise”形成对比,暗示作者不愿放弃旅行这一爱好,上下文语意连贯。
【39题详解】
上文“Everyone around me was constantly checking in on me.(我身边的每个人都不断地来看望我、关心我)”描述了周围人对作者的关心和照顾,下文“I wanted to feel tired — to put my body under stress and see what would happen.(我想要感到疲惫——让我的身体承受压力,看看会发生什么)”表达了作者想要突破保护、挑战自我的愿望。G选项“But I decided I would never allow the disease to influence the rhythm of my life.(但我决定绝不让疾病影响我生活的节奏)”承接上文,在众人关心带来的保护氛围中,表达了作者自己的决心——不让疾病主导生活;下文具体说明了作者如何按照自己的想法去行动,与G选项中的“never allow the disease to influence”相呼应,上下文语意连贯。
【40题详解】
上文“I wanted to prove that a positive attitude can be a pass to a better life.(我想证明积极的态度可以成为通往更好生活的通行证)”表达了作者的信念和决心,B选项“And I’ve made it now.(而我现在已经做到了)”承接上文,点明作者已经通过行动证明了自己的信念——成功登山就是证明;全文以作者登顶开篇,B选项与开头的想舞蹈和尖叫形成呼应,表明作者已经用积极的态度战胜了疾病带来的限制,上下文逻辑连贯。

【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:事实上,我正为年满70感到难过。A. rejoiced高兴的;B. sad难过的;C. content满意的;D. embarrassed尴尬的。根据下文“My dad passed away at 69.”可知,父亲69岁去世,所以作者对于自己70岁的生日感到难过。

【54题详解】

【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了国家级非物质文化遗产青浦田山歌。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:田山歌是上海青浦区的一种独特民间演唱形式,于2008年被列为国家级非物质文化遗产。perform和folk singing之间是被动关系,使用过去分词作定语。
【57题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:同上。主语Tianshange和recognize之间是被动关系,结合时间状语“in 2008”可知使用一般过去时的被动语态,主语表示单数意义,be动词使用was。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:顾名思义,“田山”字面意思是“田野和山丘”。空处引导非限制性定语从句,含“正如”之意,先行词是后面的主句内容,关系词在从句中作宾语,应用关系代词as引导,首字母应大写。
【59题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这些民歌的发展与普及与当地农业生活方式密切相关。修饰名词lifestyle用形容词agricultural作定语。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意:农民们在田间并肩劳作,一人担任主唱开始唱歌,其他人轮流回应。此处特指“主唱”,应用定冠词修饰。
【61题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:典型的田山歌表演通常包括独唱以及各种声部,包括男声和女声合唱。结合句意及“generally”可知,这里描述一般性事实,使用一般现在时,主语A typical Tianshange performance表示单数意义,谓语动词使用单数。
【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:同上。根据空前的“male and female”可知此处使用名词复数形式。
【63题详解】
考查连词。句意:歌词涵盖了日常生活、传统习俗以及当地居民的情感等各个方面。everyday life, traditional customs和 the feelings of local people之间是并列关系,使用and连接。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:为了更好地传承田山歌并展现其独特魅力,青浦区设立了四个保护基地,其中朱家角基地在风景如画的水镇景观中,推出了一种全新的田山歌表演方式。此处是“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,结合“four preservation bases”和“the Zhujiajiao base”可知,表示“在四个保护基地之中”,使用介词among。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:如今,游客们可以在朱家角的传统茶馆里欣赏优美的田山歌旋律,同时品尝茶饮和当地小吃。此处是while引导的时间状语从句,主语是visitors,表示“他们在品尝茶饮和当地小吃时”,完整形式是while they are tasting tea and local snacks,当状语从句的主语和主句主语一致且从句含有be动词时,可省略从句主语和be动词。

Our school’s labor practice base has been left idle for a long time, which is a great waste of valuable resources. The fields are overgrown with weeds, and the farming tools are covered with dust.
To make full use of it, I suggest we organize regular gardening activities where students can grow vegetables and flowers. Besides, we could invite biology teachers to give outdoor lessons there, turning the base into a living classroom. Moreover, the produce can be donated to the local community.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
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。
In the dusty corner of Grandpa’s attic (阁楼), I came across an old, worn violin case. Puzzled, I opened it, only to find a violin that looked like a piece of abandoned firewood. Its strings were broken, and its wooden body was covered with deep scratches (划痕). To me, a teenager who had been struggling with modern violin pieces, this instrument surely carried a hidden piece of history within it. Driven by curiosity, I carefully carried it down the narrow stairs and placed it on the living room table.
“Why do you keep this junk, Grandpa? It is broken,” I asked, pointing to the case. Grandpa stopped, his eyes softening as he took the violin. He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he gently wiped the dust off the surface with his trembling hands, as if he were looking at a long-lost friend. “This ‘junk’, as you call it, was my only companion during the years when I worked on the remote farm,” he began, his voice filled with emotion. “Music was a bridge that carried me from the exhaustion of labor to a world of peace. It taught me that as long as you have music in your heart, no hardship can break you.”
Looking at the rough calluses (茧子) on Grandpa’s fingers, I felt a sudden pang of guilt. I had always complained about my violin lessons being boring and difficult, never knowing that for Grandpa, the chance to play music was a hard-won luxury. That night, I made a decision. I would use my savings from my part-time job to have the violin restored.
The next day, I took the instrument to Mr. Miller, a master violin maker known for his “magic touch”. He warned me that the restoration would be a long process. Every weekend, I visited his workshop, watching him carefully glue the cracks and restring the instrument with precision. Meanwhile, I practiced the piece Grandpa loved most, The Moon Over the Fountain, on my own violin every night, preparing for the upcoming school talent show, and made up my mind to give Grandpa a surprise.
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。
With Mr. Miller’s help, the old violin finally regained its former shine.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The day of the school talent show arrived as scheduled.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
With Mr. Miller’s help, the old violin finally regained its former shine. Its wooden surface shone warmly, and the new strings produced clear and soft notes. Holding the violin in my arms, I felt a unique flood of warmth. It was no longer a worn-out piece of wood, but a precious treasure bearing Grandpa’s memories. Then I hurried home to present it to Grandpa. His eyes lit up with surprise and joy when he saw the renewed violin. He touched it gently, tears welling up in his eyes. When I told him that I decided to give my performance with his violin at the talent show, Grandpa first felt surprised, and then nodded proudly.
The day of the school talent show arrived as scheduled. Stepping onto the stage with the violin, I took a deep breath and began to play The Moon Over the Fountain. Seated in the front row, Grandpa wore a soft, tender smile, his eyes fixed gently on me. The music flowed through the hall, carrying Grandpa’s hard-won hope and my new understanding of music. When the last note faded, thunderous applause erupted. At that heartfelt moment, I came to realize that music is far more than mere notes and melodies — it is an enduring spiritual strength that helps us.

I recently moved back to my hometown, York, a small city in England. It has a long history and a lively culture, but not many trees for shade. In recognition of urban trees’ benefits, the city plans to plant 4,000 trees, starting with the creation of two “micro woods” near the city center. However, planting thousands of trees doesn’t guarantee success. It’s important to choose carefully what to plant and where and — to care for what’s already there.
One of the main benefits of urban trees is that they keep cities cool by providing shade and transpiration. This cooling effect will only become more important as the climate warms. In the meantime, however, climate change is threatening urban trees. Ecologist Stephan Pauleit and his team found a major increase in tree death rate during summer heatwaves. The loss of mature trees is a major problem. According to Pauleit, an 80-year-old tree cools the air and stores carbon ten times better than a 20-year-old one.
There are other threats, including invasive species. Two species of longhorn beetles (天牛), for example, can eat a tree to death. A study found that a serious outbreak of either of these harmful insects could kill a quarter of the trees in some cities. These problems are worsened by the limited diversity of urban trees. In some cities, just five species account for three quarters of trees. Such trees are tried and tested choices, but as the climate warms, they may no longer be fit for purpose.
Thus, cities need to plant with the future in mind. Researcher Henrik Sjoman has identified candidates like the chestnut-leaved oak and Lebanese wild apple that tolerate extreme conditions the best.
I went to one of the micro woods in York. There are about 50 saplings (幼树) that will take decades to mature. I am rooting for them, but I fear the world where they are growing up won’t be kind to them.
24. What does the author think is vital for the tree planting plan?
A. Preserving the existing trees.
B. Creating more urban micro woods.
C. Developing a lively local culture.
D. Replacing the badly damaged roots.
25. What do we know about urban mature trees?
A. They survive heatwaves better.
B. They show a stronger cooling effect.
C. They stop the climate from warming.
D. They recover from insect attacks faster.
26. What has led urban forests to higher risks?
A. Random choice of trees.
B. Poor variety of trees.
C. Inability to store carbon.
D. Frequent outbreaks of new insects.
27. What can be inferred about the newly planted saplings in York?
A. They may face challenges in the future.
B. They may soon provide enough shade.
C. They can prevent longhorn beetles.
D. They can tolerate extreme conditions.

A newly engineered molecule acts like a “rechargeable” solar heat battery, storing sunlight and releasing it on demand. Solar energy has one persistent weakness: it disappears at sunset. Finding a reliable way to store that energy for later use remains one of the biggest obstacles to expanding renewable power.
A research team at UC Santa Barbara may have found an unexpected workaround. Instead of relying on conventional batteries, they created a small organic molecule that captures sunlight, locks that energy into its structure, and releases it later as heat.
To understand the idea, Nguyen points to a familiar example. “Think of photochromic sunglasses (光致变色太阳镜). When you’re inside, they’re just clear lenses. You walk out into the sun, and they darken on their own. Come back inside, and the lenses become clear again,” Nguyen said. “That kind of reversible change is what we’re interested in. Only instead of changing color, we want to use the same idea to store energy, release it when we need it, and then reuse the material over and over.”
To build this molecule, the researchers turned to DNA for inspiration. The pyrimidone structure (嘧啶酮结构) resembles a DNA component that can reversibly change its form when exposed to UV light. By creating a synthetic version, the team designed a molecule capable of repeatedly storing and releasing energy. They worked with Ken Houk, a distinguished research professor at UCLA, using computational modeling to understand how the molecule can hold energy while remaining stable for years.
“We prioritized a lightweight, compact molecule design,” Nguyen said. “For this project, we cut everything we didn’t need. Anything that was unnecessary, we removed to make the molecule as compact as possible.”Unlike solar panels that generate electricity, this system stores solar energy in chemical form. The molecule behaves like a coiled spring. When exposed to sunlight, it shifts into a strained, high energy configuration. It remains in that state until triggered by heat or a catalyst, which allows it to return to its original form and release the stored energy as heat.
“We typically describe it as a rechargeable solar battery,” Nguyen said. “It stores sunlight, and it can be recharged.” The critical breakthrough for Han’s group was translating high energy density into a tangible result. In the study, the researchers demonstrated that the heat released from the material was intense enough to boil water — a feat previously difficult to achieve in this field.
28. What is the key solution to solar energy’s biggest limitation?
A. Using conventional batteries to store solar power
B. Applying the new organic molecule to store heat
C. Saving sunlight for nighttime electricity production
D. Updating solar devices to generate power nonstop
29. Why did the researchers simplify and compact the structure of the molecule?
A. To copy the basic form of natural human DNA
B. To guarantee its high energy density for boiling water
C. To improve its practical performance in real-life application
D. To prevent it from changing forms under strong sunlight
30. Which diagram best shows the molecule’s energy storage and release process?
A. B.
C. D.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. An Innovative Molecule: Rechargeable Solar Heat Storage
B. Daily Applications of Advanced DNA Technology
C. Comparison Between Solar Panels and New Batteries
D. Simple Methods to Produce Boiling Water

Pictures and videos of all sorts of animals regularly go viral these days because people connect with the apparent joy, friendship and playfulness of these animals. Unfortunately, the initial enthusiasm of these posts is often squashed by someone rightly noting that the animal’s reaction is not joy or pleasure, but fear, anger or pain.
The reason we often get cases like this wrong is that we interpret the emotional content of many behaviors automatically and unconsciously. This is a version of anthropomorphism: interpreting animals as we would interpret another human. The standard view has been that anthropomorphism is primarily an error of overestimating the intelligence of animals. In recent decades, many authors have pushed back against this attitude towards anthropomorphism, arguing animals are a lot like us and that many “anthropomorphic” claims about animals are actually true.
Instead of getting caught in a black-and-white debate, however, I want a more complicated, informed discussion of competing ideas. Once we agree that animals do in fact, have emotions, we can acknowledge that the anthropomorphic mistake is not seeing emotion where there is none — it is seeing the wrong emotion.
Each of us has a set of perceptual, emotional and cognitive capacities that allow us to engage and understand one another socially. These capacities help guide and structure all sorts of interactions, and we are generally not even aware we are using them. They are generally, but not perfectly, tuned for human interaction. Things can get messy, though, when we use them to interpret animals. Perhaps the best-studied version of this is the primate “grin” (灵长类动物的咧嘴笑). The animal is not happy, it turns out. The exact signaling function varies by species, but it usually signals something more like fear or anxiety, often by a submissive individual in a tense social situation. This is, in fact, anthropomorphism, because you are interpreting an animal’s behavior in the same way we would interpret human behavior. This kind of anthropomorphism is a form of cognitive bias (偏见) resulting from shortcuts taken by our reasoning processes, usually without our awareness.
We should approach the topic of anthropomorphism from the angle of bias. Traditionally, assumptions about how and when people anthropomorphise have been so fixed that the psychology did not seem worth investigating. Slightly different attitudes can be found. For example, even though they advocate for anthropomorphic views of animals, the zoologists Jesus Rivas and Gordon Burghardt memorably note that it can be tricky: “Anthropomorphism comes in many forms and can catch you off guard!” While the recognition of “many forms” is progress, it makes the need for evidence-based research only more pressing. By focusing on implicit (隐性的) anthropomorphism, we shift attention from debating specific “humanlike” features to examining the deeper psychological mechanisms that make anthropomorphism so slippery. This, I believe, is the most challenging and most significant dimension of the problem.
32. What does the word “squashed” underlined in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Awakened. B. Dampened. C. Misguided. D. Underestimated.
33. What can we learn about anthropomorphism?
A. It turns animals’ negative emotions into positive ones
B. It underrates the emotional capacities of animal species.
C. It contributes to the shortcuts of our reasoning processes.
D. It reflects the projection of human qualities onto animals
34. The author quotes Jesus and Gordon to ________.
A. confirm the value of anthropomorphism
B. highlight the complexity of anthropomorphism
C. warn us of the limitations of anthropomorphism
D. remind us to view anthropomorphism positively
35. What does the author intend to do by writing this passage?
A. Propose a fresh perspective. B. Analyze a worrying tendency.
C. Evaluate the credibility of a theory. D. Explore the origin of a phenomenon.

I’m dancing on top of a mountain after 570m of elevation (海拔) gain. I want to scream.
____36____ But it’s because of joy — overcoming the discomfort of an illness to arrive at this spot. As a university student, I struggle with exhaustion and poor vision. I would avoid events and barely had any social life. Gradually, people stopped asking if I was depressed, because everybody was sure I was. After more than 10 years of medical consultations, I was finally able to say to people, “ ____37____ I suffer from a disease called myasthenia, which causes the muscles to become weak and the body to experience extreme tiredness.”
The diagnosis (诊断) was a relief, but it came with a price: ____38____ I started to travel alone way before my diagnosis. I’ve always felt the need to explore. I honestly don’t know where my desire to travel came from. It’s always been there.
But how could this possibly fit with my condition? My mind was spinning at the mere thought of not being able to travel and discover the world. The first four months after the diagnosis were a nightmare. I went on a strict diet and took pills. Everyone around me was constantly checking in on me. ____39____ I wanted to feel tired — to put my body under stress and see what would happen. I wanted to be scared by the unknown because this is the beauty of life. So I did it in my own way, following my body’s needs and carefully choosing to break some rules.
That’s how travel has helped strengthen me. I didn’t want to let a disease define my identity and control me. I wanted to prove that a positive attitude can be a pass to a better life. ____40____
A. I am not depressed.
B. And I’ve made it now.
C. My cheeks are wet with tears.
D. The trust from them brought a ray of hope.

In the dusty corner of Grandpa’s attic (阁楼), I came across an old, worn violin case. Puzzled, I opened it, only to find a violin that looked like a piece of abandoned firewood. Its strings were broken, and its wooden body was covered with deep scratches (划痕). To me, a teenager who had been struggling with modern violin pieces, this instrument surely carried a hidden piece of history within it. Driven by curiosity, I carefully carried it down the narrow stairs and placed it on the living room table.
“Why do you keep this junk, Grandpa? It is broken,” I asked, pointing to the case. Grandpa stopped, his eyes softening as he took the violin. He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he gently wiped the dust off the surface with his trembling hands, as if he were looking at a long-lost friend. “This ‘junk’, as you call it, was my only companion during the years when I worked on the remote farm,” he began, his voice filled with emotion. “Music was a bridge that carried me from the exhaustion of labor to a world of peace. It taught me that as long as you have music in your heart, no hardship can break you.”
Looking at the rough calluses (茧子) on Grandpa’s fingers, I felt a sudden pang of guilt. I had always complained about my violin lessons being boring and difficult, never knowing that for Grandpa, the chance to play music was a hard-won luxury. That night, I made a decision. I would use my savings from my part-time job to have the violin restored.
The next day, I took the instrument to Mr. Miller, a master violin maker known for his “magic touch”. He warned me that the restoration would be a long process. Every weekend, I visited his workshop, watching him carefully glue the cracks and restring the instrument with precision. Meanwhile, I practiced the piece Grandpa loved most, The Moon Over the Fountain, on my own violin every night, preparing for the upcoming school talent show, and made up my mind to give Grandpa a surprise.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

With Mr. Miller’s help, the old violin finally regained its former shine.
