Through farm work, they learn new skills, solve problems, and become good citizens and leaders. Leader in Training (LIT) Ages 14 — 16 8:30 am — 4:30 pm, minimum one week commitment The LIT position is an unpaid volunteer opportunity for motivated teens to assist in one or more weeks of our ten-week summer program with children ages 3 — 11. LITs learn from and work alongside our summer staff as we educate kids about farming, food, the environment, and sustainability. If you would like to explore the field of farm work, outdoor education, or teaching, you might be a great fit as an LIT! Teen Work Crew (TWC) Ages 15 — 18 8:30 am — 3:30 pm Our TWC program offers paid, mentored work experience for teens. Teens work 24 hours per week and are scheduled for 2 — 4 weeks in a ten-week summer. TWC tackles the “big jobs” around the farm, such as fencing, mowing, splitting wood, rebuilding animal enclosures, and more. Mentoring Teens through the Agriculture Apprentice Program Ages 14 — 17 8:30 am — 5:00 pm This program provides year-round job training and paid work experience to teens who wish to master the wide range of skills it takes to run a diversified farm. Candidates are selected by farm staff based on participation in other farm programs for their skills and “can do” attitudes. By working closely with farm staff, apprentices tackle independent projects, building confidence and leadership abilities while forming life-long friendships. 21. Who are these programs intended for? A. College graduates. B. Agricultural experts. C. Experienced farmers. D. High school students. 22. What is special about LIT compared to other programs? A. It doesn’t pay its participants. B. It offers the longest work hours. C. It focuses on agricultural skills. D. It provides a visit to diversified farms. 23. What do the farm staff value most about applicants in the third program? A. Their management capability. B. Their farm skills and attitudes. C. Their previous work experience. D. Their character and qualifications. B We can create learning moments that students remember forever if we open up our classrooms to awe and wonder. Toward the end of my high school year, our Spanish teacher organized a trip to see an Andean band perform in Philadelphia. My classmates and I egged one another on ironically (讽刺地): Who could enjoy the show? The performers’ clothing seemed odd. The instruments, strange. But then the performers kicked in, dancing to their bombo and wancara drums around the stage and the panpipes and quena announced a kind of sound — new to us. We had spent too little time discussing the culture of the Inca in social studies but its traditions came alive for us that evening. Once the wonderful performance lit up the stage and the hall filled up with music, my teenage cynicism disappeared. I rose out of my chair to dance with honest joy. I have spent the last seven years living and working in South America. But my thirst for cultural exploration and a desire to understand the world outside my language and country has been alive longer than that. Sometimes I think that night dancing to those ancient rhythms unlocked this fascination. Why do I remember it so clearly decades later? In his recent book Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life, psychology professor Dacher Keltner explains that “brief moments of awe are as good for your mind and body as anything you might do.” Besides being a memorable emotion, awe boosts curiosity, builds humility, helps with critical thinking, and makes people feel more connected. It even makes us happier. “Twenty years into teaching happiness,” Keltner writes about how to find deep happiness, “I have an answer: FIND AWE.” Moving forward, let’s do our best to build instances of awe into our curriculum (课程). So when our former students approach us on the subway years later, they will recall the magical moments from their days spent in our classes. 24. How did the students initially react to the Andean band’s performance? A. They approached it with doubt. B. They showed respect for it. C. They felt joyful to appreciate it. D. They left in disappointment. 25. What does the underlined word “cynicism” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. A deep understanding of music. B. A sense of connection with society. C. A negative attitude to the world. D. A strong enthusiasm for exploration. 26. Which can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Curiosity and humility aid critical thinking more than awe. B. Only long periods of awe benefit mind and body. C. Awe is the only emotion for feeling connected. D. Keltner sees awe as key to deep happiness. 27. What is the target audience of the text? A. Psychology researchers. B. Teachers. C. Parents. D. High school graduates. C When I first learned to play tennis, my coach’s advice was simple: “Practice, practice, practice.” Though this saying is common, is it entirely scientific? Neuroscientists recently revealed a key point: it is clear errors, not just enough repetition, that drive cerebellar (小脑的) learning. To understand why, we must look at how the cerebellum actually learns. Our cerebellum relies on “error signals” from climbing fibers — when we make a motor error, these fibers fire to alert the brain to adjust. Such signals stimulate calcium (钙) bursts, driving neuroplasticity (神经重塑) in the Purkinje cells, which is the foundation of learning. But a puzzle remains: climbing fibers also activate inhibitory (抑制的) cells that should block this process. A 2026 Nature study solved this by discovering a hidden “disinhibitory” circuit. Using high-resolution microscopy, a technique for observing extremely small biological structures, researchers found that in mice, climbing fibers don’t activate all inhibitory cells the same way — they specifically target a type called MLI2 cells, which are normally inactive. Instead of directly slowing down the Purkinje cells, MLI2 cells turn off MLI1 cells, which act as “learning brakes” that weaken calcium signals. This mechanism is most effective when multiple climbing fibers fire at the same time, which usually occurs after obvious errors. It is this firing activity that lifts the “learning brakes”, allowing Purkinje cells to generate strong signals for long-lasting learning. This is why obvious mistakes rather than mere repetition promote lasting learning. While the study was done in mice, the cerebellum’s functions are conserved across species, so the findings apply to humans. This means the brain learns most effectively when errors are obvious, whether you’re mastering a musical instrument, a new language, or a complex skill. The old saying still holds but needs an update: Practice alone doesn’t make perfect; practice with noteworthy mistakes does. So the next time you are struggling to master a new skill, let go of perfectionism and welcome mistakes. 28. How does the author introduce the new finding? A. By mentioning a tennis skill. B. By interpreting an old saying. C. By questioning a common belief. D. By highlighting a clear mistake. 29. What directly stimulates neuroplasticity? A. Motor errors. B. Calcium bursts. C. Inhibitory cells. D. Learning brakes. 30. What is a function of MLI2 cells? A. Holding back MLI1 cells. B. Activating inhibitory cells. C. Weakening calcium signals. D. Blocking the Purkinje cells. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Hard Practice Leads to Mastery B. Old Sayings Need to Be Updated C. Learning Starts with Clear Errors D. Inhibitory Cells Work in Learning D When a Los Angeles hospital authorized handwriting courses for its doctors, it highlighted a modern contradiction: in an era of digital perfection, the simple act of writing by hand remains critically important. The chief of staff explained to Science Daily, “Many of our physicians don’t write clearly.” The consequences can be severe, as seen in an unfortunate case where a chemist’s misreading of a doctor’s prescription (处方) led to a patient’s death. Even though many medical records are now stored on computers, physicians still spend a lot of their time writing notes on charts or writing prescriptions by hand. Clarity in handwriting isn’t merely an aid to communication. In some significant way, writing by hand primes the brain for learning to read. Psychologists Mueller and Oppenheimer found that “Laptop note takers’ tendency to write down lectures verbatim (逐字地) rather than processing information and reframing it in their own words has a negative effect on learning.” In their experiments, students typing notes processed information shallowly, while those writing by hand were forced to summarize, leading to better understanding. The slower pace of pen and paper acts as a cognitive (认知的) filter, activating the brain for deeper comprehension. Yet, the skill is fading rapidly. Researchers worry that abandoning the pen for the keyboard will lead to any number of unforeseen negative consequences. Anne Mangen, who studies how technology transforms literacy, notes that typing, being more “abstract and unconnected,” could have profound implications; this decline is similar to a form of cultural pollution, a loss of a fundamental human capacity. A common misconception is that we have simply traded an inefficient tool for a superior one. However, like the loss of face-to-face interaction, this trade for efficiency comes at a hidden cost. We are sacrificing irrecoverable ways of learning and knowing. Ultimately, a child who masters the keyboard but cannot sign their name is not a symbol of progress. Handwriting is not a relic; it is a vital thread in the fabric of our cognition, and its wearing demands our immediate attention. 32. Why did the hospital introduce handwriting courses? A. To prevent potential medical accidents. B. To follow the latest handwriting trend. C. To improve doctors’ writing skills. D. To promote the use of written records. 33. What can we learn from Mueller and Oppenheimer’s research? A. Typing facilitates meaningful understanding. B. Note-taking blocks verbatim comprehension. C. Keyboarding ensures higher learning efficiency. D. Handwriting benefits deeper cognitive engagement. 34. What is the cost of abandoning handwriting? A. The pollution of a traditional culture. B. The fading of an essential cognitive ability. C. The over-reliance on modern technologies. D. The decline in communication efficiency. 35. What does the author suggest we do? A. Preserve handwriting as a tradition. B. Encourage keyboard use in education. C. Value the crucial role of handwriting. D. Introduce handwriting courses widely. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下列短文，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。 Singapore has no natural freshwater resources and has been ranked among the most water-stressed countries in the world. 36 Thus, after gaining independence in 1965, Singapore realized that it had to take its water future into its own hands and developed a comprehensive water management plan. Singapore has developed four pillars (支柱) of water supply: imported water, desalinated (淡化的) water, local water storage and recycled water. To secure water supplies, it has entered into agreements with Malaysia, which supplies half of the water Singapore needs. However, Singapore is projected to stop importing water by 2061. 37 Today, Singapore has five desalination plants, which provide 25% of the island nation’s total water supply. These plants function as water purification facilities. They are also designed to be modern enough. 38 . Singapore’s goal is to increase its desalination capacity to meet 30% of its water needs by 2060. 39 Rooftop water is channeled through pipes into a network of rivers, canals and reservoirs (水库). The Marina Barrage, which serves a catchment area of 10,000 hectares, not only collects fresh water but also acts as a flood protection structure. Singapore also excels at treating wastewater. At a cost of up to $10 billion, the island nation has built a modern, centralized wastewater treatment system and efficiently reused wastewater. “All wastewater is collected, treated and reused as much as possible,” said Jon Church of UN Water. 40 The Singapore government plans to increase this proportion to 55% by 2060, with the aim of improving the quality of life for its citizens. A. It was ruled by Britain for a long time. B. They were built right in downtown areas. C. Singapore is a master at collecting rainwater. D. Water has played a crucial role in the nation’s growth. E. Therefore, it must focus on the remaining three “taps”. F. It now recycles enough water to meet 30% of domestic needs. G. No wonder they blend naturally into the city’s contemporary landscape. 第二部分 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中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As part of my New Year’s resolution, I decided it was time to get my driver’s license. I’ve said I would do it for five years now, yet I never 41 it. Driving felt like a teenager’s thing, not something you began in your twenties, and I convinced myself I had somehow 42 my window. When I finally sat in the driver’s seat last week, my 43 asked if I had ever driven before. I admitted this was my first time. Saying it out felt 44 , like admitting I couldn’t ride a bike. I imagined people 45 me, wondering why I hadn’t done this sooner. What started as anxiety about not being able to drive 46 anxiety about everything else, like not having moved out of my parents’ house yet and not having travelled to countless countries. Suddenly, all my quiet 47 resurfaced. Of course, 48 reasons delayed my learning. Living in a city with convenient public transport, the cost of lessons, and the expense of owning a car all 49 careful planning before booking my first lesson. 50 , there was always that annoying voice reminding me that I “should” have already done it. As I continue learning to drive and improving with each lesson, I realise that driving, like many achievements, doesn’t come with a rigid 51 . We place an incredible amount of pressure on ourselves to complete things by a certain age, when in reality, doing them later may simply make the most sense. Driving isn’t “too late”; it’s just a milestone reached when it’s most 52 . Feelings of incompetence arise from 53 between peers when you haven’t done something society considers 54 by a certain point in life. But life is complicated.

At the Anhui Museum in eastern China, a recent exhibition of ancient gold and silver artifacts offered visitors an 56 (exceptional) close glimpse into how power, belief and daily life played out — not through texts, 57 through precious metals. Featuring a 58 (magnificence) history spanning nearly 4,000 years, the major exhibition Gold’s Radiance Steeps Ancient China 59 (draw) to a close earlier in February, highlighting millennia (千年) of craftsmanship, exchange, and imagination. Liu Huawei, the exhibition’s curator (策展人) and deputy director of the Anhui Museum, said the objects represented discoveries from 156 archaeological sites. Nearly 200 of the items displayed are classified 60 China’s first-grade cultural relics, with dozens 61 (exhibit) to the public for the first time. Liu noted that the decision to curate this exhibition originated from the belief that Chinese gold and silver artifacts provide a unique perspective 62 (observe) Chinese civilization. China is one of the world’s oldest continuous civilizations. Its 63 (consistent), originality, unity, inclusivity and peaceful nature may seem abstract, yet they are clearly reflected in material culture. To illustrate this, Liu selected five key artifacts that formed a vivid narrative. Looking back on the exhibition, 64 took a year and a half to plan, Liu said that he felt proud as he and his colleagues had offered the public 65 meaningful encounter with history and civilization. 第三部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是李华，你校英语论坛正在举办主题为“Will AI Assistants Weaken Teenagers’ Thinking Abilities?”的征稿活动，请你投稿参与讨论，陈述你的观点并说明理由。 注意：写作词数应为80个左右。 第二节（满分25分） 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。 When I graduated from business school, I received several nice job offers. But my thoughts kept wandering back to my hometown in Peru, where blueberry bushes carpeted the hills, a sea of blue drawing tourists to take pictures. Memories came to my mind: Little me, barefoot, ran among bushes, watching neighbors gather berries in harvest seasons. One sleepless night, I picked up an old poetry book and found Frost’s lines: “I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” Those words cut straight to my heart. Early the next morning, I refused all offers and headed home. My parents wrapped me in warm hugs at the door. We chatted happily over dinner as I told them my plan to run a blueberry business. Dad frowned, “Blueberries are nothing rare. It might be hard to make money,” he sighed. Mom had the same concern, but seeing my determined look, she nudged Dad. They agreed to let me try. I spent days busy in Mom’s kitchen. With her old recipe, I kept adjusting the flavors until I finally made jam and blueberry snacks that carried the familiar taste of my childhood. Full of hope, I set up a tiny stall at the local market the following weekend. Yet reality hit hard. In the burning sun, people walked by without a look. By sunset, I’d only sold three jars, tired and discouraged. Just then my elderly neighbor Evo came over and said. “Young man, use what you’ve learned in college.” His words woke me up. I should sell the joy, not just fruit. Maybe our family’s blueberry field was the very place to try my idea. 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。 I hurried back to tell my parents the big plan. Tourists were flooding into my blueberry You-Pick farm. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
