25.推理判断题。根据第三段“One day, the head of a Brazilian dance company saw Soares perform and arranged for him to selection for a dance school. He was awarded a scholarship that covered his tuition fees, and he began studying modern dance. However, it wasn’t long before everyone believed that Soares should switch to ballet.(一天,一家巴西舞蹈公司的负责人看了苏亚雷斯的表演,并安排他进入舞蹈学校。他获得了一笔奖学金来支付学费,并开始学习现代舞。然而,没过多久,每个人都认为苏亚雷斯应该转向芭蕾舞)”可推知,苏亚雷斯很快就展示了他的芭蕾舞天赋。故选C。

【导语】文章介绍了可持续农业教育对学生认知、能力与环保意识的益处。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据第一段“This disconnection from food sources creates a broader disconnection from the environment and the systems that sustain us. Sustainable agriculture education fills this gap by giving students direct experience with how food is grown and harvested.(这种与食物来源的脱节造成了与环境和生存系统的更大脱节。可持续农业教育通过让学生直接体验食物的种植和收获来填补这一空白。)”可知,该教育解决学生缺乏农耕实践、脱离农业生产的问题。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段“Beyond environmental awareness, students also learn patience as they wait for seeds to come up and plants to mature. They develop problem-solving abilities when facing challenges such as pests, drought, and unexpected weather. They practice responsibility through regular care and maintenance of plants and animals. They experience how individual contributions combine to create collective success. Many students also discover they enjoy and excel at hands-on work, building confidence that might not emerge in traditional academic settings.(除了提升环境意识,学生们在等待种子发芽、作物成熟的过程中学会了耐心。面对虫害、干旱和异常天气等挑战时,他们培养了解决问题的能力。通过对动植物的日常照料和维护,他们践行着责任感。他们亲身体会到个人贡献如何汇聚成集体成果。许多学生还发现自己喜爱并擅长动手实践,这建立了在传统课堂中可能无法获得的自信。)”可知,该教育全面培养学生的个人品质与综合能力。
30.词句猜测题。根据第四段“When students work with living systems, they witness cause-and-effect relationships that might otherwise remain abstract. Water conservation becomes personal when students must regularly irrigate their plants and can observe the consequences of too much or too little water. Installing rainwater collectors, learning about drip irrigation, or comparing the water needs of different crops can make resource management tangible.(当学生们接触生命系统时,那些原本可能停留在抽象层面的因果关系变得清晰可见。当学生必须定期灌溉作物,并能直观看到水分过多或过少带来的后果时,节水意识就转化为切身感受。安装雨水收集器、学习滴灌技术、比较不同作物的需水量,这些实践能让资源管理变得tangible。)”可知,亲身实践让抽象知识变为具体可感知的内容。tangible意为“具体的”。
31.细节理解题。根据最后一段“The key is to start with manageable projects that can succeed.(关键在于从可操作、能成功的项目起步。)”可知,作者建议从简单易开展、可实现的项目入手。
32.C 33.A 34.D 35.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要分析了孩子们学得快的原因,并解释了孩子为什么在语言学习领域有天赋。
【详解】32.推理判断题。根据第二段中的““It is a common way of thinking that ‘children are like sponges’ and have the magical ability to learn new skills faster than an adult, but there are some misconceptions here, “ said Debbie Raven, a researcher at the University of Chester. “A child’s cognitive (认知的) development is age-related and, naturally, children perform worse than their older peers in most areas. (切斯特大学的研究员黛比·拉文说:“人们普遍认为,‘孩子就像海绵’,有比成年人更快地学习新技能的神奇能力,但这里也存在一些误解。孩子的认知发展与年龄有关,理所当然地,孩子在大多数领域的表现都比年长的同龄人差。)”可知,研究员黛比·拉文发表评论是为了纠正一个错误的信仰——孩子有比成年人更快地学习新技能的神奇能力。而实际上孩子的认知发展与年龄有关。故选C。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Neuroplasticity is what gives children the capacity to learn-and, if necessary, unlearn-habits, routines, approaches and actions very quickly. (神经可塑性使儿童有能力学习,并在必要时迅速忘记习惯、惯例、方法和行动。)”可知,“神经可塑性”的一个特点是它能使孩子们很快改掉一个习惯。故选A。
34.细节理解题。根据第三段中的““This ability to learn quickly is connected to several areas, including plasticity, their experiences with adults, their environment, and their biological drive to explore, “ Raven said. (拉文说:“这种快速学习的能力与几个方面有关,包括可塑性、与成年人相处的经历、环境和天生的探索动力。)”可知,拉文认为,孩子与生俱来的探索欲望影响了孩子的快速学习能力。故选D。
35.主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段中的“Language learning, in particular, is an area where children often have a huge advantage over adults. This is largely because …(尤其是在语言学习领域,儿童往往比成年人具有巨大优势。这在很大程度上是因为……)”以及最后一段的“In a research paper, the authors suggest that “human babies are born seeing and hearing linguistic information that older children and adults miss, although they lose this ability with more experience in their environments. (在一篇研究论文中,作者提出,“人类婴儿在出生时就看到和听到了年龄较大的儿童和成年人错过的语言信息,尽管他们在环境中有了更多的经验后就失去了这种能力。)”可知,作者在最后两段主要讲到为什么孩子在语言学习领域往往比成年人具有巨大优势,即为什么孩子是有天赋的语言学习者。故选A。
36.F 37.C 38.B 39.G 40.E
41.A 42.C 43.D 44.A 45.B 46.D 47.D 48.B 49.A 50.D 51.B 52.B 53.C 54.A 55.C

Paragraph 1: Lisa looked carefully at the painting for a long time. She stared at the tough little pine tree standing on the hard rock, struggling against strong winds. Deeply touched, she realized she shouldn't give up so easily just because of her injured wrist. An idea flashed through her mind. Why not try painting with her left hand? From that moment on, she started to practice day and night. Though her left hand was not skilled and every brushstroke was difficult, she kept practicing without complaint. Gradually, her left-hand painting improved little by little.
Paragraph 2: When the day of the competition arrived, Lisa appeared at the competition hall. Many competitors looked surprised to see her, knowing her right wrist was hurt. Lisa calmed herself down and picked up the brush with her left hand. She focused all her attention on the canvas, painting the pine tree on the rocky cliff. Days later, she got the news that she won the third prize. To her great joy, the judges praised her determination. She learned that as long as she held on, nothing could stop her from chasing her dream.

I only read this book because the movie was coming out, but it was one of my favorite reads of the year .The novel is about a girl named Kya who. was abandoned at an early age in a marsh(湿地). Raising herself alone, we see her struggle with normality, living alone and being suspected of murder.

When Soares was a young boy growing up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, his family didn’t have the means to pay for extracurricular activities. However, they found a solution by signing him up for a free circus school that aimed to keep him off the streets and out of trouble. It was there that Soares discovered his passion for performance art, including acrobatics, capoeira, acting, and clowning. Ballet never crossed his mind as a practical career option, as ballet wasn’t a noticeable dance form in Brazil at the time.
At the age of 12, Soares began dancing but not in the traditional sense. His older brother was part of a hip-hop street dance group, and Soares started hanging out with them. He soon combined his circus school skills with hip-hop and capoeira to create a unique style that fascinated audiences in Rio.
One day, the head of a Brazilian dance company saw Soares perform and arranged for him to selection for a dance school. He was awarded a scholarship that covered his tuition fees, and he began studying modern dance. However, it wasn’t long before everyone believed that Soares should switch to ballet. He was immediately put on a fast track, attending academic school in the mornings and ballet classes in the evenings.
Soares’ parents were hesitant about their son pursuing ballet as a career. They were worried about his grades and whether ballet would provide him with a stable future. Soares shared their concerns and had never known anyone who pursued ballet professionally.
Despite these reservations, something incredible happened within two years of Soares starting ballet training. He participated in the Paris International Dance Competition and won a silver medal. This achievement was even more impressive considering that most of his competitors had been studying ballet since childhood. After Paris, Soares joined the national ballet company in Brazil and began earning money from his dancing.
Three years later, he went on to win the gold medal at the Moscow International Competition, previously won by legendary ballet dancers like Mikhail Baryshnikov.
24.Why was Soares sent to a circus school?
A.To seek a chance to make a name. B.To stop him getting into trouble.
C.To earn money to pay for tuition fees. D.To develop an interest in performance art.
25.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A.Modern dance became his favorite. B.Winning a scholarship was his main aim.
C.He quickly displayed his talent for ballet. D.His academic classes had to give way to ballet classes.
26.What is the original attitude of Soares’ parents to his pursuing ballet?
A.Doubtful. B.Objective. C.Supportive. D.Unclear.
27.What’s the best title for the text?
A.An Unconventional Journey to a Ballet Star
B.The Financial Struggles of a Young Dancer
C.Modern Dance: A Gateway to Ballet Excellece
D.The Dilemma: Balancing School and Ballet for Success
C
Most young people today have never picked a tomato off a vine (藤蔓), collected eggs from a chicken cage, or understood the work that goes into growing a single head of cabbage. This disconnection from food sources creates a broader disconnection from the environment and the systems that sustain us. Sustainable agriculture education fills this gap by giving students direct experience with how food is grown and harvested.
When the youth engage with farming and gardening, they develop a deeper appreciation for the resources required to produce food. They witness the first-hand relationship between healthy soil, clean water, and nutritious crops. They learn that food production doesn’t happen in isolation but as part of complex ecosystems involving insects, microorganisms, weather patterns, and human labor.
Beyond environmental awareness, students also learn patience as they wait for seeds to come up and plants to mature. They develop problem-solving abilities when facing challenges such as pests, drought, and unexpected weather. They practice responsibility through regular care and maintenance of plants and animals. They experience how individual contributions combine to create collective success. Many students also discover they enjoy and excel at hands-on work, building confidence that might not emerge in traditional academic settings.
When students work with living systems, they witness cause-and-effect relationships that might otherwise remain abstract. Water conservation becomes personal when students must regularly irrigate their plants and can observe the consequences of too much or too little water. Installing rainwater collectors, learning about drip irrigation, or comparing the water needs of different crops can make resource management tangible. Students begin thinking critically about water use, not just in the garden but in their broader lives.
Simply begin by assessing your available space and resources. A sunny corner of a schoolyard, a vacant lot, or even containers can become productive growing spaces. The key is to start with manageable projects that can succeed. Growing easy, fast-maturing crops gives students quick wins and keeps up enthusiasm while they learn fundamental skills.

Why do children learn so quickly? Is it simply a necessity, or is a child’s brain more capable of taking in new information than an adult’s brain?
“It is a common way of thinking that ‘children are like sponges’ and have the magical ability to learn new skills faster than an adult, but there are some misconceptions here, “ said Debbie Raven, a researcher at the University of Chester. “A child’s cognitive (认知的) development is age-related and, naturally, children perform worse than their older peers in most areas. However, there are times when being young brings an advantage, and this is especially true around their earliest years.
This advantage is largely due to neuroplasticity, meaning the brain’s ability to form and change its connections, pathways and wiring based on experiences. Neuroplasticity is what gives children the capacity to learn-and, if necessary, unlearn-habits, routines, approaches and actions very quickly. This ability is most constant and rapid before a child’s fifth birthday, when much of what they encounter or experience is novel. “This ability to learn quickly is connected to several areas, including plasticity, their experiences with adults, their environment, and their biological drive to explore, “ Raven said. “Childhood is a place where children spend their time catching up with adults’ more sophisticated abilities. “
Language learning, in particular, is an area where children often have a huge advantage over adults. This is largely because “babies are able to tune in to the rhythm and sounds used in their native language, and can therefore become fluent speakers by the age of four. “This ability can help young children learn a second or third language with apparent ease, Raven said.
In a research paper, the authors suggest that “human babies are born seeing and hearing linguistic information that older children and adults miss, although they lose this ability with more experience in their environments. Moreover, babies can “discriminate speech sounds and tones used in al of the world’s languages, making them open to al input, regardless of the linguistic environment they are born into.
32.Why does Raven make the remarks in paragraph 2?
A.To prove a new theory. B.To share personal experience.
C.To correct a wrong belief. D.To solve long-held confusion.
33.What’s one feature of “neuroplasticity”?
A.It enables children to break a habit quickly.
B.It accompanies a person all through his life.
C.It is entirely based on a kid’s past experiences.
D.It disappears soon after a child’s fifth birthday.
34.What impacts kids’ quick learning ability according to Raven?
A.Their brain structure. B.Their habits and routines.
C.Their parents’ experiences. D.Their inborn desire to explore.
35.What does the author mainly talk about in the last two paragraphs?
A.Why children are talented language learners.
B.What are the proper ways of learning languages.
C.When is the best time to learn foreign languages.
D.How environments can influence language learning.

The saying "laughter is the best medicine"has been around for centuries,but only in recent decades has science begun to explain the reasons behind laughter's magical effect.
Laughter begins in the brain as a result of humor,surprise,or the joy of human connection 36 This makes laughter a full-brain activity of emotion and movement.
37 These chemicals provide a sense of reward and pleasure, reduce physical discomfort and create a sense of delight, and deepen feelings of trust and connection with people around you.
Laughter also sets your body into “rest and digest” mode.In this process,the stressful fight-or-flight response is limited.Your muscles are loosened,and your breath is deepened. 38
Beyond being an expression of humor,laughter benefits your body and mind in many ways.
Laughter reduces stress.Modern life is full of things that stress you out:deadlines,academic worries, social pressure,etc. 39 Heart health is another area where laughter works its magic.When you laugh, blood vessels ( 血 管 )expand,reducing blood pressure.One study showed that watching a comedy increased blood flow in participants by 22%.The conclusion is clear:joy helps the heart. Over time,regular laughter may reduce the risk of heart attacks.
If laughter is medicine,then the solution is simple:make space for joy.This may involve spending more time with friends who make you laugh,watching comedies instead of endless newsfeeds,or practicing laughter yoga to release tension 40 So the next time you feel like laughing,laugh out loud!Your body and mind will thank you.
A.But the stress is too much for people to stay calm.
B.This is why laughter often leaves you feeling relaxed.
C.Laughter releases chemicals that make you feel good.
D.This is because cartoons and comedies are often funny.
E.Even funny memories or humorous stories can be beneficial.
F.When we laugh,several brain regions become active together.
G.But a few minutes of laughter can help you recover from stress.

Winning works would be exhibited in the city library for a month, attracting many local artists. She devoted most of her spare time to her painting,hoping to prove herself and get valuable advice from professional judges.
