Growing cucumbers on the moon might sound like science fiction, but for thousands of Australian students aged seven to ten, that future is now. They are pioneering the ALEPH Project, a groundbreaking world-first mission to establish the first lunar garden by 2026.
Far from being passive observers, these young scientists are the vital engine of the project. They roll up their sleeves to tackle the core objective — figuring out what can actually grow on the moon — through hands-on experimentation. By designing specialized seed delivery systems and uploading findings to a national database, they equip scientists with real-world data for critical decision-making. This Stile Education and Lunaria One partnership has already yielded remarkable results, with over 440 student-led experiments and 200 teams’ data pushing the mission ahead.
Yet the universe isn’t making it easy for these young explorers. The biggest problem is reproducing the tough environment of the moon right in their classroom. While they can use an oven to generate moon-like heat and a special machine to simulate rocket shake, copying the space radiation and zero-gravity that seeds face in space is much harder. This mismatch between Earth-based simulations and what really happens in space makes their project immensely challenging.
To bridge this gap, the students learn through trial and error, like real scientists do. Take the case of 13-year-old Huefner. He discovered moon-like conditions made tomatoes grow taller than the control group, proving science isn’t just formulas, but human curiosity in action. Such stories resonate with the team on a profound level. Lunaria One’s Lauren recalls wanting fresh salad during her space mission, not dry food. “It really hit home how important missions like this are,” she reflects, “as they’re our first steps toward growing fresh food in space.” This direct link from scientific inquiry to future sustenance (生计) sustains their passion.
This project does more than grow plants — it grows future explorers. Ultimately, it brings science to life, because the kids tending these lunar gardens today might just be the ones seeding humanity’s future in space tomorrow — all through their school curriculum.
24. What is the primary purpose of the ALEPH Project?
A. To modernize experimental learning. B. To advance off-world farming practice.
C. To evaluate lunar agricultural systems. D. To stimulate passive scientific minds.
25. What is the main challenge for these young scientists?
A. Tackling true-to-moon heat modeling. B. Seeking access to high-end lab equipment.
C. Gaining experience in Earth agriculture. D. Recreating conditions similar to space.
26. What does the underlined phrase “hit home” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Caused serious technical arguments. B. Evaluated novel scientific insights.
C. Struck with deep emotional force. D. Reached the unexpected destination.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Can Classrooms Feed Moon? B. How to Survive Lunar Heat?
C. Who Will Farm in Space? D. Is Off-Earth Salad Beneficial?

Wake up early enough and, depending on where you live, you’ll likely hear a pleasant chorus (合唱) of birds singing their tiny hearts out. Singing in the early morning is the natural behavior of birds. But why do birds sing only in the early morning?
According to the Woodland Trust, a UK-based environmental charity, this early singing is known as the dawn chorus, and it can start as early as 4 a.m. and last for several hours. Birds do it to attract mates (配偶) and warn other birds to avoid their territory. One theory as to why they choose for the early hours to communicate these important messages is because the low visibility makes it hard to do other bird activities, like finding food. Keeping their activity level low, they choose to sing instead. Another theory argues that birds use the morning songs to project an image of strength. By singing with passion, they’re letting other birds know they survived the night — no guarantee in nature — and would make for an excellent mate.
Like a good recording studio, the early morning hours also allow birds to transmit a distinct sound thanks to the cooler, drier air. Since birds have distinctive calls, that clarity helps them be more easily identified by birds within listening distance.
There used to be a widespread theory that birds sang so much in the mornings because the sounds could travel greater distances due to less atmospheric turbulence (大气湍流), but it was disproven by researchers at the University of Western Ontario in 2025. They played recordings of sparrows at dawn and midday, coming to a conclusion that rather than traveling farther, sounds were more steady and constant in the mornings. “Birds only have so much energy, so singing when they stand the best chance of being heard makes sense.” they added, “For a bird, an early morning period is like having the perfect sound environment for their performance.”
28. Which is a reason for birds singing in the early morning?
A. To appeal to their partners. B. To find food for their kids.
C. To warn other birds of danger. D. To guarantee their survival.
29. How does morning air quality affect birds’ songs?
A. Make them travel further. B. Make them easily followed.
C. Make them sound louder. D. Make them clearly recognized.
30. What does the research in 2025 suggest?
A. Endless energy offers birds the chance of survival.
B. Birds’ performance is better in a safe environment.
C. Birds’ morning songs have a greater sense of continuity.
D. Less atmospheric turbulence allows greater sound distances.
31. What can we learn from birds’ morning singing?
A. Strike while the iron is hot. B. Good things come to those who wait.
C. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.

A long-overlooked immune organ, the thymus (胸腺), proves to be a hidden indicator of the length of human life, disease risk and cancer treatment outcomes, according to two studies published in Nature by researchers from Mass General Brigham.
For decades, scientists held a fixed belief: the small chest organ gradually gets smaller after puberty (青春期) and stops playing a vital role in adult health, for it produces fewer new T cells, immune cells guarding against infections and illnesses. Thus, the thymus was rarely included in large-scale population research.
To open new “avenues” for related medical study, the team applied AI technology to analyze routine CT scans from over 27,500 adults. They measured the thymus’s size and structure to create a thymic health score. Data showed adults with higher scores gained striking health benefits: roughly 50% lower all-cause death risk, 63% lower heart and blood vessel death risk and 36% reduced lung cancer risk, even after excluding the interference of age and other health conditions. Researchers explained poor thymic health cuts T-cell diversity, weakening the immune system’s ability to spot cancer or other diseases. Besides, smoking, overweight and chronic inflammation (慢性炎症) are confirmed to damage thymic health.
Another separate experiment tracked more than 1,200 cancer patients receiving immune treatment. Patients with healthier thymuses had a 37% lower cancer progression risk and 44% lower death risk, which indicates the thymus state largely affects the effect of modern cancer immune treatment and opens new avenues for cancer treatment.
The scientists emphasize that additional studies will be needed to confirm the results. They also note that the imaging technique used to measure thymic health is not yet ready for routine use in clinical practice. Though unhealthy lifestyles connect with poor thymus, the studies fail to confirm whether adjusting these habits can recover thymic function. Further research will explore hidden factors affecting thymic health.
32. What is the previous opinion about the thymus?
A. It works well for adults all the time.
B. It can cure different kinds of cancers.
C. It is widely checked in daily hospital tests.
D. It becomes less important for adults after puberty.
33. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. CT scans are used to cure heart and lung diseases directly.
B. Age difference is the only cause of bad thymic health conditions.
C. High thymic health scores lower risks of several serious illnesses.
D. People with lower scores have no chance to suffer from lung cancer.
34. What does the underlined word “avenues” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. City roads. B. Patient groups.
C. Medical tools. D. Research approaches.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The development of cancer treatment in recent years.
B. How AI helps doctors check different kinds of illnesses.
C. New studies on the little-known thymus and its health value.
D. Several useful ways to prevent heart disease and lung cancer.

Schools have begun to use special boxes to keep students’ phones during school time. ____38____ The idea of limiting mobile phone use isn’t just happening in a few schools. Over 30 schools in France have put some kind of limit on mobile phone use this year or last year, with different areas making their own rules about phones.
____39____ The teachers in these schools believe that students have grown up with mobile phones. They think it’s their job to teach students how to use mobile phones the right way as a learning tool. They also teach about how to use phones properly, including how to be responsible with social media and the Internet. ____40____ In their eyes, the technology has already existed, so schools should use it to help students and not fear it.
A. In this way they won’t be encouraged to use them.
B. It’s impossible that mobile phones can destroy a child.

This is a true story of my grandfather James. In the 1930s, Grandpa was a school kid and took a part-time job in a theater. One day, during a break when the audience were going to the bathroom, he was shocked to see three very huge rats which crossed the aisles (过道) and went under the seats. Grandpa feared the audience would be hurt.
When the movie was over, Grandpa told the manager what he saw. The manager was anxious, and said they couldn’t use poisons to drive the rats away. Grandpa suggested putting cats in the theater at night when it was closed. The manager agreed and gave grandpa the task of putting the cats in the theater at night, but grandpa had to be there in the morning to remove the cats and any dead rat that might be around.
The next day, grandpa found two cats. At the end of the night when the movie was over, he brought the cats into the theater as “night guards”. Then, he left and headed home, excitedly thinking about how many dead rats there would be when he went to the theater in the morning.
The next morning, grandpa hurried to the theater to take care of the cats and all of those dead rats before he went to school. After reaching the theater, he opened the front door, to his surprise, the two cats rushed out of the door and down the street at once. Confused, grandpa entered the theater and turned on the light. To his surprise, he couldn’t find one dead rat.
Soon, grandpa and the manager found out that the rats were so big that the cats were actually scared of them. Grandpa wondered how to deal with the problem. When grandpa got home from school that day, he told his parents what had happened. They laughed and told him that the best way was to get a Rat Terrier dog. They said it’s a type of dog that is good at killing rats. Although grandpa doubted it, he decided to have a try.

To check whether the dog had killed any rats, the next morning grandpa got up very early.

【答案】13. C 14. C 15. B 16. A
【解析】
【原文】W: Now it’s 8:00 am, time for the educational report. GCSE is the British exam taken by the students in England and Wales around the age of 16. Recently researchers at a university have confirmed the doubt of many parents and employers that some GCSEs are easier than others.
The researchers found that sciences and modern languages were the hardest GCSEs to do well in. Chemistry was the hardest of the major subjects followed by physics and French. Drama was the easiest GCSE to do well in, followed by physical education, media studies, English and English literature. The number of test takers in physical education rose faster than in any other subjects last year. 147,500 students sat GCSEs in physical education last summer. However, it was a problem for the country if pupils avoided hard subjects.

(共4小题,每小题2. 5分,满分10分)
Growing cucumbers on the moon might sound like science fiction, but for thousands of Australian students aged seven to ten, that future is now. They are pioneering the ALEPH Project, a groundbreaking world-first mission to establish the first lunar garden by 2026.
Far from being passive observers, these young scientists are the vital engine of the project. They roll up their sleeves to tackle the core objective — figuring out what can actually grow on the moon — through hands-on experimentation. By designing specialized seed delivery systems and uploading findings to a national database, they equip scientists with real-world data for critical decision-making. This Stile Education and Lunaria One partnership has already yielded remarkable results, with over 440 student-led experiments and 200 teams’ data pushing the mission ahead.
Yet the universe isn’t making it easy for these young explorers. The biggest problem is reproducing the tough environment of the moon right in their classroom. While they can use an oven to generate moon-like heat and a special machine to simulate rocket shake, copying the space radiation and zero-gravity that seeds face in space is much harder. This mismatch between Earth-based simulations and what really happens in space makes their project immensely challenging.
To bridge this gap, the students learn through trial and error, like real scientists do. Take the case of 13-year-old Huefner. He discovered moon-like conditions made tomatoes grow taller than the control group, proving science isn’t just formulas, but human curiosity in action. Such stories resonate with the team on a profound level. Lunaria One’s Lauren recalls wanting fresh salad during her space mission, not dry food. “It really hit home how important missions like this are,” she reflects, “as they’re our first steps toward growing fresh food in space.” This direct link from scientific inquiry to future sustenance (生计) sustains their passion.
This project does more than grow plants — it grows future explorers. Ultimately, it brings science to life, because the kids tending these lunar gardens today might just be the ones seeding humanity’s future in space tomorrow — all through their school curriculum.
24. What is the primary purpose of the ALEPH Project?
A. To modernize experimental learning. B. To advance off-world farming practice.
C. To evaluate lunar agricultural systems. D. To stimulate passive scientific minds.
25. What is the main challenge for these young scientists?
A. Tackling true-to-moon heat modeling. B. Seeking access to high-end lab equipment.
C. Gaining experience in Earth agriculture. D. Recreating conditions similar to space.
26. What does the underlined phrase “hit home” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Caused serious technical arguments. B. Evaluated novel scientific insights.
C. Struck with deep emotional force. D. Reached the unexpected destination.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Can Classrooms Feed Moon? B. How to Survive Lunar Heat?
C. Who Will Farm in Space? D. Is Off-Earth Salad Beneficial?
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. A

Wake up early enough and, depending on where you live, you’ll likely hear a pleasant chorus (合唱) of birds singing their tiny hearts out. Singing in the early morning is the natural behavior of birds. But why do birds sing only in the early morning?
According to the Woodland Trust, a UK-based environmental charity, this early singing is known as the dawn chorus, and it can start as early as 4 a.m. and last for several hours. Birds do it to attract mates (配偶) and warn other birds to avoid their territory. One theory as to why they choose for the early hours to communicate these important messages is because the low visibility makes it hard to do other bird activities, like finding food. Keeping their activity level low, they choose to sing instead. Another theory argues that birds use the morning songs to project an image of strength. By singing with passion, they’re letting other birds know they survived the night — no guarantee in nature — and would make for an excellent mate.
Like a good recording studio, the early morning hours also allow birds to transmit a distinct sound thanks to the cooler, drier air. Since birds have distinctive calls, that clarity helps them be more easily identified by birds within listening distance.
There used to be a widespread theory that birds sang so much in the mornings because the sounds could travel greater distances due to less atmospheric turbulence (大气湍流), but it was disproven by researchers at the University of Western Ontario in 2025. They played recordings of sparrows at dawn and midday, coming to a conclusion that rather than traveling farther, sounds were more steady and constant in the mornings. “Birds only have so much energy, so singing when they stand the best chance of being heard makes sense.” they added, “For a bird, an early morning period is like having the perfect sound environment for their performance.”
28. Which is a reason for birds singing in the early morning?
A. To appeal to their partners. B. To find food for their kids.
C. To warn other birds of danger. D. To guarantee their survival.
29. How does morning air quality affect birds’ songs?
A. Make them travel further. B. Make them easily followed.
C. Make them sound louder. D. Make them clearly recognized.
30. What does the research in 2025 suggest?
A. Endless energy offers birds the chance of survival.
B. Birds’ performance is better in a safe environment.
C. Birds’ morning songs have a greater sense of continuity.
D. Less atmospheric turbulence allows greater sound distances.
31. What can we learn from birds’ morning singing?
A. Strike while the iron is hot. B. Good things come to those who wait.
C. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. A

【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to the Woodland Trust, a UK-based environmental charity, this early singing is known as the dawn chorus, and it can start as early as 4 a.m. and last for several hours. Birds do it to attract mates (配偶) and warn other birds to avoid their territory.(据英国环保慈善机构“林地信托基金”介绍,这种清晨的鸣叫被称为“黎明合唱”,最早可始于凌晨4点,持续数小时。鸟类通过鸣叫吸引配偶,并警告其他鸟类远离自己的领地。)”可知,鸟类在清晨唱歌是为了吸引配偶,也就是向它们的伴侣发出吸引的信号。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Like a good recording studio, the early morning hours also allow birds to transmit a distinct sound thanks to the cooler, drier air. Since birds have distinctive calls, that clarity helps them be more easily identified by birds within listening distance.(就像一个好的录音室一样,由于空气更凉爽、更干燥,清晨的几个小时也能让鸟类发出独特的声音。由于鸟类的叫声各不相同,这种清晰度有助于它们更容易被听到叫声范围内的鸟类识别出来。)”可知,早晨的空气质量使得鸟类的歌声更加清晰,从而让它们更容易被识别。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“They played recordings of sparrow s at dawn and midday, coming to a conclusion that rather than traveling farther, sounds were more steady and constant in the mornings.(他们在黎明和中午播放了麻雀的录音,得出的结论是,与传播得更远相比,声音在早晨更加稳定和持续。)”可知,2025年的研究表明,鸟类的早晨歌声更具连续性。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Birds only have so much energy, so singing when they stand the best chance of being heard makes sense.(鸟类的能量有限,所以在最有可能被听到的时候鸣叫是合理的。)”可知,鸟类选择清晨这个最佳时机鸣叫,体现了“趁热打铁”(抓住最佳时机行动)的道理。故选A。

A long-overlooked immune organ, the thymus (胸腺), proves to be a hidden indicator of the length of human life, disease risk and cancer treatment outcomes, according to two studies published in Nature by researchers from Mass General Brigham.
For decades, scientists held a fixed belief: the small chest organ gradually gets smaller after puberty (青春期) and stops playing a vital role in adult health, for it produces fewer new T cells, immune cells guarding against infections and illnesses. Thus, the thymus was rarely included in large-scale population research.
To open new “avenues” for related medical study, the team applied AI technology to analyze routine CT scans from over 27,500 adults. They measured the thymus’s size and structure to create a thymic health score. Data showed adults with higher scores gained striking health benefits: roughly 50% lower all-cause death risk, 63% lower heart and blood vessel death risk and 36% reduced lung cancer risk, even after excluding the interference of age and other health conditions. Researchers explained poor thymic health cuts T-cell diversity, weakening the immune system’s ability to spot cancer or other diseases. Besides, smoking, overweight and chronic inflammation (慢性炎症) are confirmed to damage thymic health.
Another separate experiment tracked more than 1,200 cancer patients receiving immune treatment. Patients with healthier thymuses had a 37% lower cancer progression risk and 44% lower death risk, which indicates the thymus state largely affects the effect of modern cancer immune treatment and opens new avenues for cancer treatment.
The scientists emphasize that additional studies will be needed to confirm the results. They also note that the imaging technique used to measure thymic health is not yet ready for routine use in clinical practice. Though unhealthy lifestyles connect with poor thymus, the studies fail to confirm whether adjusting these habits can recover thymic function. Further research will explore hidden factors affecting thymic health.
32. What is the previous opinion about the thymus?
A. It works well for adults all the time.
B. It can cure different kinds of cancers.
C. It is widely checked in daily hospital tests.
D. It becomes less important for adults after puberty.
33. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. CT scans are used to cure heart and lung diseases directly.
B. Age difference is the only cause of bad thymic health conditions.
C. High thymic health scores lower risks of several serious illnesses.
D. People with lower scores have no chance to suffer from lung cancer.
34. What does the underlined word “avenues” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. City roads. B. Patient groups.
C. Medical tools. D. Research approaches.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The development of cancer treatment in recent years.
B. How AI helps doctors check different kinds of illnesses.
C. New studies on the little-known thymus and its health value.
D. Several useful ways to prevent heart disease and lung cancer.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. D 35. C
【解析】

【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“For decades, scientists held a fixed belief: the small chest organ gradually gets smaller after puberty (青春期) and stops playing a vital role in adult health, for it produces fewer new T cells, immune cells guarding against infections and illnesses.(数十年来,科学家们持有一种固有观点:这个胸腔小型器官在青春期后会逐渐萎缩,且不再对成年人的健康起到关键作用,因为它产生的新生T细胞数量变少,而T细胞是抵御感染与各类疾病的免疫细胞。)”可知,过去人们认为胸腺在青春期后对成年人的重要性下降。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Data showed adults with higher scores gained striking health benefits: roughly 50% lower all-cause death risk, 63% lower heart and blood vessel death risk and 36% reduced lung cancer risk, even after excluding the interference of age and other health conditions.(数据显示,胸腺健康评分更高的成年人能收获显著的健康益处:即便排除年龄与其他健康状况带来的干扰,其全因死亡风险降低约50%,心血管疾病死亡风险降低63%,肺癌患病风险下降36%。)”可知,更高的胸腺健康分数能够降低多种严重疾病的患病风险。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Patients with healthier thymuses had a 37% lower cancer progression risk and 44% lower death risk, which indicates the thymus state largely affects the effect of modern cancer immune treatment and opens new avenues for cancer treatment.(胸腺状态更好的患者,癌症恶化风险降低37%,死亡风险降低44%,这表明胸腺状况会极大影响现代癌症免疫疗法的疗效,也为癌症治疗开辟了全新avenues。)”可知,胸腺状况会影响癌症免疫疗法,也为癌症治疗开辟了全新研究方向,“avenues”此处含义为“研究方向”,与D选项“Research approaches.(研究途径)”含义相近。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A long-overlooked immune organ, the thymus (胸腺), proves to be a hidden indicator of the length of human life, disease risk and cancer treatment outcomes, according to two studies published in Nature by researchers from Mass General Brigham.(麻省总布里格姆医疗集团的研究人员在《自然》杂志上发表的两项研究表明,长期被忽视的免疫器官胸腺,是衡量人类寿命、患病风险以及癌症治疗效果的隐藏指标。)”可知,全文围绕两项针对胸腺的新研究展开,介绍胸腺被低估的健康价值。

This is a true story of my grandfather James. In the 1930s, Grandpa was a school kid and took a part-time job in a theater. One day, during a break when the audience were going to the bathroom, he was shocked to see three very huge rats which crossed the aisles (过道) and went under the seats. Grandpa feared the audience would be hurt.
When the movie was over, Grandpa told the manager what he saw. The manager was anxious, and said they couldn’t use poisons to drive the rats away. Grandpa suggested putting cats in the theater at night when it was closed. The manager agreed and gave grandpa the task of putting the cats in the theater at night, but grandpa had to be there in the morning to remove the cats and any dead rat that might be around.
The next day, grandpa found two cats. At the end of the night when the movie was over, he brought the cats into the theater as “night guards”. Then, he left and headed home, excitedly thinking about how many dead rats there would be when he went to the theater in the morning.
The next morning, grandpa hurried to the theater to take care of the cats and all of those dead rats before he went to school. After reaching the theater, he opened the front door, to his surprise, the two cats rushed out of the door and down the street at once. Confused, grandpa entered the theater and turned on the light. To his surprise, he couldn’t find one dead rat.
Soon, grandpa and the manager found out that the rats were so big that the cats were actually scared of them. Grandpa wondered how to deal with the problem. When grandpa got home from school that day, he told his parents what had happened. They laughed and told him that the best way was to get a Rat Terrier dog. They said it’s a type of dog that is good at killing rats. Although grandpa doubted it, he decided to have a try.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Grandpa reached the local dog shelter and asked if they had a Rat Terrier. Luckily, they just so happened to have one. When Grandpa told them what he was doing, they let him borrow the dog for the weekend. With doubt in his mind, Grandpa took the dog to the theater with him that evening. After the audience left, whispering "good luck" to himself and the dog, he turned the dog loose in the theater. The dog started running around, sniffing the air. Grandpa left and headed home, still with doubt running through his head.
To check whether the dog had killed any rats, the next morning Grandpa got up very early. When he reached the theater, nervous, he opened the door. To his surprise, he saw six dead rats laid out on the floor in the lobby and the dog was standing there wagging his tail, very proud of himself. The manager was so happy and awarded Grandpa. Later, Grandpa joyfully went right to the dog shelter and adopted the dog, which he named RK, short for Rat Killer. RK became a close friend to Grandpa and had a regular job himself at the theater.
