When a bee finds food, it does a special wiggle dance (摇摆舞) to tell others where to go. The way it moves shows where the food is, and how long it waggles tells how far away the food is. However, the bee dance doesn’t always work. Scientists have been puzzled (困惑的) by this for years. Now they have found something new. In a new US study, scientists used a hive (蜂箱) with clear walls to record the bees dancing. They trained some bees to get food at a certain place. These bees returned and danced to show others where to go. If a new bee found the food after watching a dance, the scientists checked the video to see which part of the dance led the bee to the food. They found that bees often succeeded when the dance was longer, showing that the food was farther away than it actually was. This way, bees would fly past the food, then see it on their way back, giving them two chances to find it. Also, if all bees danced the same way, they might miss the food more often. Small mistakes in the dance made bees search more, increasing their chances of finding the food. 21. Scientists used a special hive with clear walls to watch how bees dance. 22. The research found that bees were more successful when the dance showed the food was closer than it really was. 23. If every bee danced the same way, they would find the food more quickly. 24. Small mistakes in the dance can help bees because they make the bees search over a larger area. 25. This passage is mainly about the different types of bee dances. 第二节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 根据短文内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Will It Grow? A baby plant waits inside every seed (种子).

B Kiara Nirghin is a girl from Johannesburg, South Africa. When she was 16, she tried to help local farmers with their crops(庄稼). At that time, their crops were dying because of the dry weathers. So she invented a new material to help solve the problem. It could take in water from the soil and air it touched. Kiara did three different experiments (实验) within forty-five days to find the best material to use. In the end, she found that waste orange peels and avocado(牛油果) peels worked best. This creative product can keep plenty of water, helping plants stay wet in the dry weather. It is a low cost way for local farmers because orange peels and avocado peels are easy to get. Besides, the material is perfectly safe to use around food crops because it is made from fruit. Kiara won an award at the Google Science Fair with this invention. At the fair, she shared her findings. Not only is her project a great scientific achievement, but it also shows that anyone can make a difference. She hopes to keep studying science and finding new ways to help people with her inventions. “It always seems impossible until it’s done,” Kiara said. These words always encouraged her not to give up as she worked on her project. She also showed that creativity can be explored at any age. 31. How does the writer start this passage? A. By showing numbers. B. By explaining the reason. C. By telling stories. D. By using a saying. 32. Where is Kiara from? A. America. B. Canada C. South Africa. D. South Korea. 33.

C If life can be compared to a meal, I think the mistakes are like salt and the success is candy. “Hey,” said the boy whose name I couldn’t remember, sitting next to me. “Don’t worry. Take your time.” And so I did. But I still couldn’t correctly pronounce my Chinese name that was given by the teacher. I was so embarrassed on my first day of learning Chinese. I took Chinese classes during my summer vacation. Every morning, I walked for 25 minutes to the class while having a Chinese pancake from one of the breakfast carts (推车) on the way. Learning Spanish in school was an easy job for me, because I could speak French and Italian, which helped me with it. However, learning Chinese was difficult at first. As a boy who was born in America and grew up in America, I knew nothing about the language and had no experience of learning the language. I chose it mainly because I was going to teach and work internationally. As the classes went on, I slowly found that I was making connections. My 10 years of playing the piano has allowed me to perform for others. My several years of writing has led me to become a school reporter. I knew that my Chinese classes would allow me to speak Chinese well. As the teachers helped me build up confidence, I soon began tasting the sweetness. So what did my summer really taste like? It tasted like the Chinese food that, for the first time, I did not order in English, my mother language. 36. Why did the writer feel embarrassed in his first Chinese class? A. Because he had no Chinese name. B. Because he forgot his Chinese name. C. Because he couldn’t correctly pronounce his Chinese name. D. Because he couldn’t write his Chinese name. 37.

Nature. B. Business. C. Learning. D. Health. 40. What can be the best title of the text? A. An unpleasant experience of learning English. B. How to get on Well with Chinese teachers. C. How to develop an interest in China. D. A sweet experience of learning Chinese. 第三节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When asking questions to AI, it’s important to make sure your questions are clear and effective. ____41____ Be clear and specific (明确的). The more specific you are, the better the answer will be. For example, instead of asking “Tell me about movies,” ask “____42____” This helps the AI understand exactly that you’re looking for the top 10 cartoon movies in 2025. Provide information about your role. ____43____ For example, if you ask as a student about a grammar rule, you’ll get simpler answers. But if you ask the same question as a middle school teacher, the answer given to you will be much more different. ____44____ If your question is big or difficult, try breaking it down into smaller parts. For example, instead of asking, “Can you explain the book for me?” ask “What is the main idea of this book?” or “Can you explain the key points?” This makes it easier to understand. Ask follow-up questions. After getting an answer, ask for more details if needed. For example, “Can you explain that in more detail (细节)?” or “What does that word mean?” Follow-up questions are very helpful for you to get a more complete answer. ____45____ By following these tips, you can ask better questions and get clearer, more useful answers from AI. A. Be patient and polite B. Break down your questions. C. Which is the best cartoon movie in the world? D. What are the top 10 cartoon movies in 2025? E.
