Explore the Emerald Valley National Park!
Welcome to Emerald Valley National Park, a beautiful park in the Pacific Northwest! Set up in 1998, it covers over 1,500 square kilometers of wonderful scenery. The park got its name from the emerald-green color of its largest lake, Lake Serenity, which is filled with clear mountain water.
What to See and Do
For Nature Lovers: Don't miss Crystal Waterfalls, 85 meters high. You can hear its sound from far away! For a great view of the valley, hike up to Sunrise Peak, the highest point at 1,920 meters. The path takes about three hours.
For Adventure Seekers: You can rent kayaks (皮艇) at Lake Serenity. A two-hour guided tour costs $25 per person and lets you explore quiet corners of the lake. If you like cycling, there are over 50 kilometers of bike paths.
For Culture Lovers: Visit Maplewood Farm to experience farm life of the old days. The farmhouse is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and volunteers show how to make traditional apple juice every Saturday.
Plan Your Visit
Entrance Fee: The park entrance is free for visitors under 12. For adults, it's $10 per person, which includes access to all public areas.
Best Time to Visit: While beautiful all year round, the park is at its best from July to October when the weather is mild and the wildflowers are in full bloom.
Please Remember: To protect its natural beauty, you can only camp in special areas, and drones (无人机) are not allowed at all. If you'd like to contribute, the park organizes a “Clean Trail” volunteer program every first Sunday of the month—no need to book in advance, just show up!

The skateboard felt like a wild animal under Leo's feet. It was his thirteenth birthday present, and the moment he stepped on it, the board shot out from under him, leaving him sitting on the ground. For the next two weeks, the skateboard sat in the corner of his room, a symbol of his failure.
His friend Mia, an experienced skater, finally talked him into trying again. "Everyone falls at first, Leo," she said. "The key is to get back on."
One sunny afternoon, they went to the quiet basketball court. Leo's heart pounded as he put one foot on the board. He held Mia's arm tightly, his body as stiff as a board. "Relax," she encouraged. "Look ahead, not at your feet."
Slowly, shakily, he started to roll. He fell again and again, collecting scratches and bruises like badges of honor. But each time, Mia was there with an encouraging word. Gradually, his fear began to mix with a new feeling: determination. He started to find his balance, pushing off gently on the smooth ground.
Then came the day when Mia pointed to a very gentle slope. "You're ready for that," she said. It looked like a mountain to Leo. He took a deep breath, remembering all the small successes. He pushed off. The board started to roll faster. Panic rose in his chest, but he remembered Mia's advice: "Look ahead." He fixed his eyes on the end of the path, bent his knees, and let the board carry him.
The wind whipped through his hair. For a few seconds, he wasn't fighting the board; he was gliding with it. He rolled to a stop, his heart racing with excitement, not fear. He hadn't just conquered the slope; he had conquered his own fear. He finally understood that courage wasn't about not being afraid; it was about not letting fear stop you. That unforgettable ride was more than just learning a new skill; it was a lesson he would carry for life.
24. Why did the skateboard sit in the corner of Leo's room for two weeks?
A. It was like a wild animal.
B. It was broken and needed repair.
C. Mia told him it was too dangerous.
D. Leo was afraid of it after his first fall.
25. According to Mia, what is the most important thing to do after falling?
A. To take a long rest.
B. To turn to someone for help.
C. To give it another try on the skateboard.
D. To check if the skateboard is broken.
26. The underlined word "conquered" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ___.
A. enjoyed
B. overcame
C. tracked
D. discovered
27. What is the main lesson Leo learned from this experience?
A. Skateboarding is a very dangerous sport.
B. It's important to have an experienced teacher.
C. Courage means moving forward despite fear.
D. Birthday presents can sometimes be disappointing.
C
There are two kinds of people: those who like to pack up leftovers as soon as dinner is over, and those who let leftovers sit out for a few hours so they can cool down. Which way is better?
Whether you should immediately put food in the fridge or let it sit out to cool depends on its temperature. Dangerous bacterial (细菌的) growth happens between 41 and 135 degrees F. Potentially harmful bacteria grow most rapidly at these temperatures.
Placing lots of hot food in the fridge can raise the temperature of the fridge into this danger zone. Fridge temperatures should always be set below 40 degrees F. This may help the food get out of the danger zone as fast as possible.
However, both leaving leftovers out for a long period of time and adding hot items to the fridge can cause problems. If food stays in the "danger zone" too long, bacteria can multiply to harmful levels. Experts suggest that cooked food should not be left at room temperature for more than two hours.
However, there's no harm in putting hot food directly into the fridge if you need to. If you are a forgetful person or you have a busy schedule, putting hot food in the fridge is better than leaving it on the kitchen counter. Modern fridges are designed to handle this, though you may want to put hot food in smaller containers so it cools down faster.
"It is OK to leave the food cooling outside before you hit the two-hour mark," says Serena Poon, a nutritionist. "In fact, the sooner you can get your leftovers in the fridge, the better."
28. At which temperature do harmful bacteria grow most rapidly?
A. Below 40 degrees F.
B. Between 41 and 135 degrees F.
C. Above 135 degrees F.
D. At exactly 40 degrees F.
29. What is the author's attitude toward putting hot food directly into the fridge?
A. He is strongly against it.
B. He thinks it is acceptable if necessary.
C. He believes it causes serious problems.
D. He is uncertain about its effects.
30. What does Serena Poon suggest people do?
A. Leave food out for as long as possible.
B. Put leftovers in the fridge as soon as possible.
C. Never put hot food in the fridge.
D. Wait for two hours before cooling food.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. How to Keep Food Fresh
B. The Danger of Bacteria in Food
C. To Cool Food Outside or in the Fridge
D. Why We Should Not Waste Leftovers
D
When was the last time you wrote something by hand? If you cannot remember, you are not alone. Today, most students type their homework on computers or laptops. However, a growing number of teachers and scientists believe that writing by hand still has important advantages that typing cannot offer.
According to a study carried out at a university in the United States, students who took notes by hand remembered more of a lecture than those who typed on laptops. The reason is that handwriting is slower, so students cannot write down every word they hear. Instead, they have to listen, think, and summarize the main points in their own words. This active process helps them remember the material better.
Writing by hand also encourages creativity. Many famous writers, from Virginia Woolf to Ernest Hemingway, preferred to write their first drafts in notebooks. The slowness of the pen gives the mind time to wander, to make connections, and to come up with new ideas. When you type, you may edit and change sentences too quickly, which can interrupt the flow of thought.
Of course, typing has its own advantages. It is faster, easier to edit, and much better for sharing and storing documents. The best solution, many educators suggest, is to use both: take notes by hand in class to improve learning, and type them up later to organize and share.
In a world that is becoming more digital every day, perhaps we should not completely give up the old-fashioned pen and paper. A notebook may not be as powerful as a laptop, but it offers something that a screen cannot: a quieter, slower, and more thoughtful way of thinking.
32. What did the American university study find?
A. Typing notes helps students take more complete notes.
B. Students who wrote notes by hand remembered lectures better.
C. Laptops are more useful than notebooks in class.
D. Students prefer typing to handwriting.
33. Why does handwriting help students remember better?
A. It allows them to write down every word.
B. It forces them to think and summarize while listening.
C. It is faster than typing.
D. It makes lectures more interesting.
34. Why does the author mention Virginia Woolf and Ernest Hemingway?
A. To show they were the greatest writers.
B. To prove handwriting encourages creativity.
C. To explain how they wrote their novels.
D. To compare their writing styles.
35. What is the author's main purpose in writing the text?
A. To advise students to stop using computers.
B. To explain the advantages of handwriting and suggest using both ways.
C. To criticize modern education.
D. To introduce the history of writing tools.

Travel is not only about reaching a destination but also about experiencing the world in new ways. Through each journey, you discover cultures, stories, and values that can broaden your mind. __36__.

It was a cold winter morning. Anna, a quiet and shy girl, was walking to school as usual. She was new in the town and had not made any friends yet. As she turned the corner near the park, she saw an old man sitting on a bench. His hands were blue with cold, and he had no coat on, only a thin jacket.
Anna stopped. She wanted to walk past, because she was already late for school. But the old man looked so cold and lonely. She remembered what her grandmother always said: "A small act of kindness can warm someone's whole day."
Anna took off her own scarf—a soft, red scarf that her grandmother had given her for her birthday. She walked up to the old man and gently put it around his neck.
"Are you okay, sir?" she asked softly.
The old man looked up at her. His eyes were tired, but a slow smile spread across his face. "Thank you, little girl," he said. "This is the kindest thing anyone has done for me in a long time."
Anna smiled back and then hurried to school. She was ten minutes late, and her teacher asked her why. She told the truth. To her surprise, the teacher did not scold her. Instead, she told the whole class about what Anna had done.
After class, a girl with a warm smile came up to Anna. "I saw what you did this morning," she said. "That was really brave. Would you like to have lunch with me?"

One sunny afternoon, they went to the quiet basketball court. Leo's heart pounded as he put one foot on the board. He held Mia's arm tightly, his body as stiff as a board. "Relax," she encouraged. "Look ahead, not at your feet."

The Value of Travel
Travel is not only about reaching a destination but also about experiencing the world in new ways. Through each journey, you discover cultures, stories, and values that can broaden your mind. __36__. A 2025 study reported that open-minded travel promotes growth and cross-cultural connections among students. To help you unlock these benefits, here are some tips to make your journey meaningful.
Plan ahead but stay adaptable
Having a plan gives you direction, but travel is full of surprises. Unexpected changes may challenge your ideas while also creating new opportunities. If you hold too tightly to your original plan, you may miss out on these chances. __37__. By doing so, you enjoy both safety and discovery.
__38__
Every community has traditions and lifestyles worth noticing, from food and music to simple greetings. Showing respect through small actions, like saying hello in the local language, can leave a positive impression. These gestures help you build genuine connections with people you meet.
Slow down and notice the details
Rather than rushing through famous spots, try slowing down to notice what might otherwise be ignored. The sound of street music, the smell of local dishes, or even a short chat with a shop owner may remain in your memory far longer than any postcard photo. __39__
Reflect on your journey
Writing a diary or taking photos allows you to reflect on what you have learned on the way. __40__. Such reflection strengthens your understanding and can inspire others to begin their own journeys.
A. Respect local traditions
B. Focus on daily lifestyles
C. Try to enjoy the famous sights in detail
D. It can teach you lessons no classroom offers
E. Revising your plan when needed helps you adapt
F. These small experiences often leave the deepest impressions
G. This practice also provides a way to share your experiences with others
【答案】36.D 37.E 38.A 39.F 40.G
【解析】本题位于第一段段中。前文说旅行能开阔视野,D项“它能教会你课堂上学不到的东西”承接上文并引出下文研究,故选D。
【解析】本段主题为“提前计划但保持灵活”。前文说如果死守原计划会错过机会,E项“需要时修改计划有助于适应”承接上文,与下文“这样你既能享受安全又能享受发现”呼应,故选E。
【解析】本题是段落小标题。本段内容为尊重当地传统、用当地语言打招呼等,A项“尊重当地传统”概括了本段主旨,故选A。
【解析】本段讲放慢节奏注意细节,前文提到街头音乐、当地美食、与店主聊天等小经历,F项“这些小经历往往留下最深的印象”承接上文,故选F。
【解析】本段主题为“反思旅程”。前文写日记或拍照能反思所学,G项“这种做法也提供了与他人分享经历的方式”承接上文,并与下文“反思能加深理解并激励他人”呼应,故选G。

第二节 读后续写(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。
It was a cold winter morning. Anna, a quiet and shy girl, was walking to school as usual. She was new in the town and had not made any friends yet. As she turned the corner near the park, she saw an old man sitting on a bench. His hands were blue with cold, and he had no coat on, only a thin jacket.
Anna stopped. She wanted to walk past, because she was already late for school. But the old man looked so cold and lonely. She remembered what her grandmother always said: "A small act of kindness can warm someone's whole day."
Anna took off her own scarf—a soft, red scarf that her grandmother had given her for her birthday. She walked up to the old man and gently put it around his neck.
"Are you okay, sir?" she asked softly.
The old man looked up at her. His eyes were tired, but a slow smile spread across his face. "Thank you, little girl," he said. "This is the kindest thing anyone has done for me in a long time."
Anna smiled back and then hurried to school. She was ten minutes late, and her teacher asked her why. She told the truth. To her surprise, the teacher did not scold her. Instead, she told the whole class about what Anna had done.
After class, a girl with a warm smile came up to Anna. "I saw what you did this morning," she said. "That was really brave. Would you like to have lunch with me?"
Anna's heart jumped with joy. She had finally found a friend. But she had no idea that the day held an even bigger surprise for her.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
That afternoon, Anna walked home alone, still thinking about her new friend.
When Anna got home, her grandmother was waiting at the door with a big smile.
【参考范文】
That afternoon, Anna walked home alone, still thinking about her new friend. As she passed the park, she saw the old man again. This time, he was not alone. A young reporter was standing next to him, holding a camera. The old man waved at Anna and called her over. "This is the kind girl who gave me her scarf," he told the reporter. It turned out that the old man was a famous retired teacher who had just moved to the town. The reporter wanted to write a story about his new neighbor and the girl with the warm heart.
When Anna got home, her grandmother was waiting at the door with a big smile. "I heard what happened today," she said. "You made me so proud." Then she showed Anna a photo on her phone—it was the old man, standing in the park, wearing Anna's red scarf. Anna laughed and hugged her grandmother. She realized that a small act of kindness had not only warmed a stranger's day, but had also changed her own life, bringing her friendship, respect, and a warm new beginning in the town.
