A. Place them in green bins. B. Put them with regular trash. C. Take them to a special site.
【答案】11. C 12. B 13. C
【解析】
【原文】M: This new recycling guide is confusing. Why can’t we put pizza boxes in the paper bin? They’re made of cardboard!
W: Because of oil stains. Even a little food left on them means the whole lot can’t be recycled. Remember what happened last winter?
M: You mean when the collection truck refused our building’s bins? But that was plastic bags mixed with bottles!
W: It’s the same kind of problem. Now, for glass — only clear bottles go in green bins. Colored glass must go to the downtown center.
M: That’s a 40-minute drive! What if I clean wine bottles very carefully?
W: I’m afraid not. Colored glass needs a different recycling process. No exceptions.
M: What about broken mirrors? The guide doesn’t say.
W: Those are harmful waste. Wrap them in old newspaper and take them to the special collection point on Maple Street.
M: This new system is much more complicated than the one in our old town.

【答案】14. A 15. C 16. B 17. B
【解析】
【原文】W: I wouldn’t have applied for this job if I knew it required past experience with data. My training only taught me basic Excel skills.
M: Don’t worry. The HR team called you for an interview, so they believe you have potential.
W: Maybe a little, but I’m really nervous about the computer test tomorrow. What if I can’t complete the task?
M: Then focus on what you’re good at. The report you wrote for Professor Lee’s project was excellent. Use its structure as an example — we can use public datasets and adjust them.
W: That might work. Thank you. Let’s meet at the library at 7. By the way, does your roommate still work at TechHub? He might know what kind of test it is.
M: He left last month, but I’ll ask around. For now, practice presenting — being confident is more important than being perfect.
W: You’re right. I’ll practice by myself later. I hope all this hard work will be worth it.

【答案】18. A 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】W: Good evening! This is City Update. The city council has approved the Riverside Project and has even added $2 million to protect the old markets in the downtown area. Work will begin next month. The first steps will include making wider walking areas and installing solar-powered street lights. However, there are still some problems. Although the money will cover 80% of the costs, local stores are worried that long-term road work will keep customers away. To help these businesses, the city will set up temporary market stands in nearby parks and provide free bus service during rush hours. Environmental groups are not satisfied because the plan didn’t add more bike paths. But in a surprise move, yesterday’s updated plan added a 5-kilometer bike path along the river — on the condition that local people can raise $500,000 by October. This special condition has led to strong opinions and lively discussions at recent public meetings. On the positive side, the project will create more than 300 jobs, especially for people with experience in construction. Training programs will start next week at the local training school. Anyone who is interested can register online or go to the community center before Friday. Stay tuned for more news!

Djukic is a biology and chemistry student at John Carroll University. She never thought that one day she would be in a classroom where an English teacher asked her to play a board game in order to learn about climate change.
Debra Rosenthal is the professor of the class. At first, Djukic said she was uncertain about Rosenthal’s board game idea. “I was just like: ‘this is interesting, but how much are we actually going to take away from it?”
Rosenthal thought her students would gain a greater understanding about how their own ideas and experiences affect climate change. Students do not compete against each other. They work together to choose the best plan of action. The game is different from board games such as Monopoly, where the goal is to win. Rosenthal said she hoped the games would give students a chance to talk about climate change in a new way.
“By playing the games, it’s a way to be social, to engage in conversation. There has to be a lot of energy around the table. It’s very collaborative. And in the game that I chose to play, they really were able to work together and try to come up with a solution so that the planet was not destroyed.”
During the class, she said, students laughed, disagreed and had to call for votes as a way to decide how to move forward in the game. Djukic said it was a “way to have fun...while also learning about such a serious subject.”
The games are global, Djukic said. That is because she and her classmates said they were able to see how one player’s decision about agriculture affected another player on the other side of the world.
She said the games showed her that “in the game of climate change and the climate crisis, no individual wins.” “It’s either we all suffer from this, or we all somehow collaborate to work our way out of this and turn the clock back on climate change.”
24. What is the purpose of Rosenthal’s class arrangement?
A. To inspire the competition among students.
B. To entertain the students with the board game.
C. To stress the damage caused by climate change.
D. To encourage student’s viewpoints about climate change.
25. Which best describes the board game according to paragraph 4?
A. Cooperative. B. Competitive. C. Creative. D. Exclusive.
26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Agriculture is of vital importance to the world.
B. The world is a community of shared future.
C. Man with strong will can conquer nature.
D. Climate change is a tough problem to solve.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Climate change calls for teamwork.
B. Climate change leads to global impact.
C. A board game helps students understand climate issues.
D. A good teacher gives students lifelong benefits.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. B 27. C

China on Monday successfully launched the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft (货运飞船) from the Wenchang Space Launch Site, carrying not only supplies for the Chinese space station, but also a pioneering study on the development of “artificial embryos (胚胎)” in space. The mission marks the world’s first attempt to investigate how embryo-like structures develop under real microgravity and universal radiation conditions.
Tianzhou-10 carried 67 scientific items weighing more than 768 kilograms to support 41 space science experiments. These projects include life sciences, biotechnology, microgravity physics, astronomy, and Earth science. Among them, the embryo experiment has drawn particular attention.
Yu Leqian, the artificial embryo project’s manager, explained that real human embryos are extremely difficult to obtain for large-scale scientific research. Artificial embryos are structures constructed from stem cells that closely look like real embryos. They are not true embryos and cannot develop into an individual human being, but they help study early human embryonic development.
According to Yu, the embryo models used in the experiment correspond roughly to a crucial stage of human development between days 14 and 21 after fertilization (受精). It is an extremely important developmental window. Within just a few days, the early forms of all organs begin to develop. Many early development-related diseases, such as deformities and born heart disease, are closely associated with this period. The goal of the research is to understand how gravity shapes life itself and what effects space conditions may have on this critical process.
During the mission, the artificial embryos will develop for five days aboard the station under the monitoring of Chinese astronauts. Automated systems will replace nutrient solutions daily. Samples will be frozen in orbit and later returned to Earth for detailed laboratory analysis.
“This is our first attempt to answer whether humans can survive and reproduce in space. I hope the answer will be yes,” Yu said.
28. Why has the artificial embryo project attracted particular attention?
A. It covers five major research fields. B. It helps explore the origin of embryos.
C. It aims to cure humans of genetic diseases. D. It is the first artificial embryo research in space.
29. What do we know about artificial embryos from Yu Leqian?
A. They are made from human embryos. B. They are widely used in space research.
C. They are an alternative to real embryos. D. They are able to grow into human beings.
30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Gravity can be ignored in the embryo experiment.
B. Space conditions may affect early organs’ forming.
C. Artificial embryos will be put into mass production.
D. Artificial embryos may be free from human diseases.
31. What is Yu’s attitude to artificial embryos research in space?
A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Unconcerned. D. Worried.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是中国天舟十号货运飞船成功发射,并首次在太空开展人工胚胎发育研究的相关情况。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The mission marks the world’s first attempt to investigate how embryo-like structures develop under real microgravity and universal radiation conditions. (这次任务标志着世界首次尝试研究胚胎样结构在真实微重力和宇宙辐射条件下如何发育。)”可知,人工胚胎项目之所以引起特别关注,是因为它是首次在太空中进行的人工胚胎研究。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Artificial embryos are structures constructed from stem cells that closely look like real embryos. They are not true embryos and cannot develop into an individual human being, but they help study early human embryonic development. (人工胚胎是由干细胞构建的结构,外观与真实胚胎非常相似。它们不是真正的胚胎,不能发育成个体人类,但有助于研究早期人类胚胎发育。)”可知,人工胚胎是真实胚胎的替代品。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“According to Yu, the embryo models used in the experiment correspond roughly to a crucial stage of human development between days 14 and 21 after fertilization (受精). It is an extremely important developmental window. Within just a few days, the early forms of all organs begin to develop. Many early development-related diseases, such as deformities and born heart disease, are closely associated with this period. The goal of the research is to understand how gravity shapes life itself and what effects space conditions may have on this critical process. (据于介绍,实验中使用的胚胎模型大致对应于人类受精后第14天至第21天之间的一个关键发育阶段。这是一个极其重要的发育窗口。在短短几天内,所有器官的早期形态开始发育。许多与早期发育相关的疾病,如畸形和先天性心脏病,都与这一时期密切相关。该研究的目标是了解重力如何塑造生命本身,以及太空条件可能对这个关键过程产生什么影响。)”可知,太空条件可能影响早期器官的形成。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘This is our first attempt to answer whether humans can survive and reproduce in space. I hope the answer will be yes,’ Yu said. (‘这是我们首次尝试回答人类能否在太空中生存和繁殖的问题。我希望答案是肯定的,’于说。)”可知,于乐谦对太空人工胚胎研究持积极态度。

One night in May 2023, a group of people from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered around a computer monitor on a rooftop. The monitor was linked to equipment that could receive transmissions from a satellite. Around 10 pm, they got a signal. On their monitor, the scientists watched as their equipment turned solar energy into electrical power.
The experiment was a success. But it’s just a first step. Eventually, the scientists hope to gather the sun’s energy in giant satellites orbiting Earth and beam it down to the power grid (网格). Solar panels in space would produce a constant stream of power.
The idea of solar space stations isn’t new. Science fiction writers thought of it years ago. The problem is getting these power stations into space. The glass solar panels would have to be huge. The cost of launching the parts into orbit would be tremendous. So the Caltech scientists are creating a new kind of solar panel. This one is made out of lightweight materials. And they’re replacing large antennas with tiny ones.
Caltech is not the only organization that’s interested in solar power stations. China is planning a mission in 2028 to test its technology. And the European Space Agency is looking to build gigantic solar space stations. For now, the Caltech scientists will continue with their experiments. Their satellite managed to send some energy to Earth. But other parts didn’t work.
However, the recent experiment proved that the technology works in space. With more research, it could reach commercial use in the coming decades.
The biggest obstacle to building solar power stations in space is not the technology. Launching the materials is too expensive. And that’s changing. The aerospace company SpaceX has been testing reusable rockets. Reusing rockets will bring down the cost of a launch. The cost of gathering solar energy and sending it to Earth will be less. And that will make it more practical.
32. What did the Caltech scientists successfully do in the May 2023 experiment?
A. They built a system to charge a laptop from space.
B. They unfolded the frame for solar panels in space.
C. They transmitted solar energy from space to Earth’s power grid.
D. They transformed space-collected sunlight into usable electricity.
33. Why does the author mention China and the European Space Agency’s plans?
A. To praise Caltech’s advanced technology.
B. To compare their technologies with Caltech’s.
C. To show global interest in space solar power.
D. To predict the commercial use of solar stations.
34. What contributes to the future use of space solar power?
A. The faster progress of technology. B. The lighter weight of solar panels.
C. The lower cost of launching materials. D. The greater support from the government.
35. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The breakthrough of SpaceX rockets. B. An experiment on space solar energy.
C. Global efforts to build space power stations. D. A successful space exploration by scientists.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. C 35. B

【导语】文章主要讲述了加州理工学院的科学家在2023年5月进行的一次太空太阳能实验,以及该实验对未来太空太阳能应用的意义和全球相关研究的进展。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“One night in May 2023, a group of people from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered around a computer monitor on a rooftop.(2023年5月的一个夜晚,加州理工学院的一群人围坐在屋顶的一台电脑显示器旁)”和“On their monitor, the scientists watched as their equipment turned solar energy into electrical power.(在显示器上,科学家们看着他们的设备将太阳能转化为电能)”可知,加州理工学院的科学家在2023年5月的实验中成功地将从太空中收集的阳光转化为可用的电力。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Caltech is not the only organization that’s interested in solar power stations. China is planning a mission in 2028 to test its technology. And the European Space Agency is looking to build gigantic solar space stations.(加州理工学院并不是唯一一个对太阳能电站感兴趣的组织。中国计划在2028年执行一项测试其技术的任务。欧洲航天局正考虑建造巨大的太空太阳能电站)”可知,作者提到中国和欧洲航天局的计划是为了展示全球对太空太阳能的兴趣。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The biggest obstacle to building solar power stations in space is not the technology. Launching the materials is too expensive. And that’s changing. The aerospace company SpaceX has been testing reusable rockets. Reusing rockets will bring down the cost of a launch. The cost of gathering solar energy and sending it to Earth will be less. And that will make it more practical.(在太空中建造太阳能电站的最大障碍不是技术。发射材料的成本太高了。这种情况正在改变。航空航天公司SpaceX一直在测试可重复使用的火箭。重复使用火箭将降低发射成本。收集太阳能并将其发送到地球的成本将会降低。这将使其更具实用性)”可知,太空中建造太阳能电站的最大障碍不是技术,而是发射材料的成本,所以发射材料成本的降低有助于未来太空太阳能的使用。

阅读下面短文,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。
Giving and receiving positive feedback
Your manager called you and said she would want to discuss your performance in recent projects. ____36____. On Monday morning, when you walked into her office, she first praised your excellent work, and you immediately got ready — is this a common setting for the frightening “feedback sandwich”? You are very familiar with this pattern: starting with praise, offering genuine criticism, and ending with more praise.
____37____. However, when feedback follows this predictable formula, employees begin to see praise as a filler for criticism, depriving it of its true meaning. Positive feedback is better than being downgraded to a buffer (缓冲) responsibility. It should be used independently as a tool for motivation. Below are three tips to help you make positive feedback count.
● Separate positive from negative feedback
When praise always comes before criticism, it loses its power. ____38____. Let it be offered without a shadow — no comparison, no subtle correction. Just the simple, honest act of appreciation.
● ____39____
Psychologist Carol Dweck emphasized our brain’s adaptability and our capacity to develop new abilities. Rather than praising fixed traits like “you have a natural eye for detail,” focus on the process — celebrating effort, creative approaches, and problem-solving persistence.
● Create a culture of offering positive feedback
Integrate positive feedback into daily interactions, not just formal reviews. Offer casual appreciation during hallway conversations or coffee breaks. Encourage team members to recognize each other’s contributions. ____40____.
Transforming a workplace skeptical of positive feedback takes patience, but the rewards extend beyond improved performance to a genuinely enriched professional life.
A. Praise a creative mindset
B. Develop a growth mindset
C. She began criticizing without hesitation
D. Ensure that praise sometimes exists independently
E. Such habits create an environment where praise flows in all directions
F. You spend the entire weekend anxious and question what you did wrong
G. Many managers use this technique, wrapping negative feedback between two positives
【答案】36. F 37. G 38. D 39. B 40. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以“反馈三明治”现象引入,指出积极反馈不应沦为批评的缓冲,并给出三条建议:正负反馈分离、培养成长型思维、营造积极反馈文化,以提升职场激励效果。
【36题详解】
上文“Your manager called you and said she would want to discuss your performance in recent projects.( 你的经理打电话给你,说她想和你谈谈你近期项目的表现。)”提到经理打电话说要和你谈近期项目表现。下文“On Monday morning, when you walked into her office…(周一早上,当你走进她的办公室时…)”提到周一早上走进办公室。可推知,接到这种通知,人会先焦虑、担心自己出错,度过不安的周末。F选项“You spend the entire weekend anxious and question what you did wrong.(你整个周末都很焦虑,怀疑自己是不是哪里做错了。)”符合此推断,上下文语意连贯。故选F项。
【37题详解】
上文“You are very familiar with this pattern: starting with praise, offering genuine criticism, and ending with more praise.( 你对这种模式非常熟悉:先以赞扬开始,接着给出真诚的批评,最后再以更多的赞扬结束。)”介绍了“表扬 —批评— 表扬”的反馈三明治模式。下文“However, when feedback follows this predictable formula, employees begin to see praise as a filler for criticism, depriving it of its true meaning.( 然而,如果反馈遵循这种可预测的模式,员工就会将赞扬视为批评的填充物,从而剥夺了其真正的意义。)”However 转折,说这种固定模式会让赞美失去意义。G选项“Many managers use this technique, wrapping negative feedback between two positives.(许多管理者使用这种技巧,把负面反馈夹在两段正面评价之间。)”先说明很多管理者都在使用这种方法,再转折讲问题。this technique 指代前面的 feedback sandwich,指代清晰,衔接紧密。故选G项。
【38题详解】
段落主旨“Separate positive from negative feedback(区分积极反馈和消极反馈)”把正面反馈和负面反馈分开。上文“When praise always comes before criticism, it loses its power. (当赞扬总是先于批评出现时,它就会失去效力。)”提到赞美总是放在批评前面就会失去力量。下文“Let it be offered without a shadow — no comparison, no subtle correction.( 让它自然地呈现出来——不要比较,不要微妙的纠正。)”提到让赞美不带阴影、没有对比、没有修正,只是真诚欣赏。D选项“Ensure that praise sometimes exists independently.(要确保赞美有时可以独立存在。)”可知,起到上下文的承上启下作用,independently对应段落主题 separate,完美呼应。故选D项。
【39题详解】
下文“Rather than praising fixed traits like “you have a natural eye for detail,” focus on the process — celebrating effort, creative approaches, and problem-solving persistence.( 与其称赞诸如“你天生就善于关注细节”这类固定特质,不如关注过程——赞美努力、创新的方法以及解决问题的毅力。)”本段讲“如何正确给出积极反馈”,重点是赞美思维与过程。B选项“Develop a growth mindset(培养成长型思维)”为总结该段内容,适合作为该段小标题。故选B项。
【40题详解】
段落主旨“Create a culture of offering positive feedback(营造积极反馈的文化。)”上文“Integrate positive feedback into daily interactions, not just formal reviews. Offer casual appreciation during hallway conversations or coffee breaks. Encourage team members to recognize each other’s contributions.( 将积极反馈融入日常交流中,而不仅仅是形式上的评估。在走廊交谈或咖啡休息时间里给予随意的赞赏。鼓励团队成员相互认可彼此的贡献。)”提到把赞美融入日常交流、走廊闲聊、鼓励同事互相认可。E选项“Such habits create an environment where praise flows in all directions.(这些习惯会营造出赞美四处流动的环境。)”可知,Such habits指代前面的日常赞美行为,总结自然。故选E项。

But Josh Golin, executive director of children’s well-being group Fairplay, ____61____ (believe) Smart Bricks could destroy what was once great about Legos — using children’s own imagination during play. He said the toy did not require extra features ____62____ (generate) sounds or other effects. “As is known to all, children’s Lego creations already do move and make noises through the power of their imaginations,” he told BBC.
The company’s chief product and ____63____ (market) officer, Julia Goldin, ____64____ (previous) told BBC it viewed digital technology as an opportunity to “expand physical play and physical building”.
“We don’t look at the digital world as ____65____ threat,” she said — adding that its smart range weaves (编入) interactivity “seamlessly” with its physical blocks.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了乐高推出内置科技、能发声发光的智能积木,宣称这是近50年的革命性创新,但儿童游戏专家担忧这会削弱乐高原本依赖儿童想象力的核心价值。
【56题详解】
考查介词。句意:乐高推出了智能积木——这种充满科技元素的小积木块,据称将通过声音、光线和对运动的反应让积木“活”起来。bring… to life为固定短语,意为“使……栩栩如生,使……活跃起来”。故填to。
【57题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:然而,这一新产品系列在玩具专家中引发了不同的反应,一些人警告说,在日益数字化的世界中,它可能会损害乐高对儿童的独特之处。空处引导名词性从句作harm的宾语,宾语从句缺少主语,结合“makes Lego special for children”可知,主语指物,应用连接代词what作引导词。故填what。
【58题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:在拉斯维加斯举行的2026年消费电子展上,这家丹麦玩具制造商推出了智能游戏系统,为经典的塑料积木引入了新的电子元件。空处作introduces的宾语,且空前没有表示单数概念的修饰语,可数名词component“组成部分,部件”应用复数形式。故填components。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:乐高表示,其于三月随一款新的“星球大战”套装推出的新技术产品,是近50年来“最具革命性的创新”。句子已有谓语,空处是非谓语,作products的后置定语,launch“推出”和products逻辑上是被动关系,且动作已完成,因此用launch的过去分词形式。故填launched。
【60题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:乐高表示,其于三月随一款新的“星球大战”套装推出的新技术产品,是近50年来“最具革命性的创新”。空处作修饰innovation的定语,结合“in nearly 50 years”可知,此处表示在近50年时间范围内的比较,应用形容词revolutionary的最高级。故填most revolutionary。
【61题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:但儿童福利组织Fairplay的执行董事Josh Golin认为,智能积木可能会破坏乐高之前的优点——让儿童在玩耍中发挥自己的想象力。空处作句子的谓语,结合前文介绍乐高公司的观点可知,此处同样描述当前的想法,时态应用一般现在时,主语是Josh Golin,believe“认为”应用第三人称单数形式。故填believes。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他说,这种玩具不需要额外的功能来产生声音或其他效果。require… to do…是固定短语,意为“需要……做某事”,因此用generate“产生”的不定式。故填to generate。
【63题详解】
考查名词。句意:该公司的首席产品与营销官Julia Goldin此前告诉BBC,该公司将数字技术视为“拓展实体游戏和实体搭建”的机遇。空处与名词product并列作定语修饰officer,表示“负责产品和市场营销的”,应用名词marketing,意为“市场营销”。故填marketing。
【64题详解】
考查副词。句意:该公司的首席产品与营销官Julia Goldin此前告诉BBC,该公司将数字技术视为“拓展实体游戏和实体搭建”的机遇。空处修饰动词told,应用副词previously“此前”。故填previously。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:“我们并不将数字世界视为威胁,”她说——并补充说,其智能系列将互动性“无缝”地融入其实体积木中。此处泛指“一种威胁”,且threat的发音以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。

66. 你校学生会计划在下个月的“校园开放日”中举办一项跨文化交流活动,现有以下两个方案:
·Plan A: Invite international students to cook their traditional dishes (美食工坊)
·Plan B: Hold a Chinese calligraphy workshop for foreign visitors (书法体验)

(1)写作词数应为100个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Dear Chairman,
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【答案】范文一(选择Plan A — 美食工坊)
Dear Chairman,
Regarding the cultural exchange event for the Open Day next month, I’d like to recommend Plan A — the cooking workshop.
Food breaks down linguistic barriers, enabling international students to share their family traditions while visitors explore exotic flavors. Unlike calligraphy, which primarily appeals to visual appreciation, cooking engages multiple senses, promising higher participation. Additionally, the hands-on process naturally promotes cross-cultural communication.
My concrete suggestion is to reserve the school kitchen from 14:30 to 16:00, and prepare fresh ingredients, disposable plates, and cups for approximately 30 participants, ensuring both safety and enjoyment.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
范文二(选择Plan B — 书法体验)
Dear Chairman,
With the annual campus Open Day approaching, I firmly believe Plan B — the calligraphy workshop — offers the most rewarding experience for our cross-cultural event.
Calligraphy serves as a window into traditional Chinese philosophy, offering foreign visitors an authentic cultural immersion. Compared with cooking, it demands no fire or complex equipment, making it safer and simpler to organize. Moreover, participants can take home their creations, transforming a brief activity into a lasting souvenir.
For practical arrangement, I suggest holding it in the art room from 10:00 to 12:00, with brushes, ink and paper prepared in advance.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Colt, a 26-year-old electrician on vacation in central Arizona, set out to hike a remote trail in the Superstition Mountains by himself. He parked his car by the trailhead near Canyon Lake and started hiking. Accustomed to hiking the shaded, cooler trails near his home, Colt was undone by the intense heat of Arizona’s exposed sun. After five hours, he found himself lost and out of water. Lightheaded, he texted his wife, “I need help. ”
But his text didn’t go through; his phone had no service. Colt ate his soft fruit candies bite by bite, fearing they would be his last meal. He thought of his wife and their daughter, hoping that he would get to see them again. Desperate, he fired for help from the signal gun he carried to scare off bears — a final call for help.
The sound carried across the rocks to Zeto, a 57-year-old retired firefighter, enjoying his new hobby — hiking mountain trails in Arizona. He knew target practice was banned there, so he thought the pair of shots might be someone shooting at an animal. But when he heard another pair about half an hour later, Zeto’s instincts (本能) , polished over 30 years responding to calls for help, told him the repeated shots must be a signal for help.
On previous hikes, Zeto had come across other hikers in need. There was a man who fell and bloodied his head, a woman who broke her leg. As a result, he’d started carrying extra supplies in case others needed help. He hiked in the direction of the shots, and about 45 minutes later, climbing over a hill, he came across Colt, lying on his side. He could tell that Colt was confused, lost and in rough shape.
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。
Zeto knew he must take action quickly.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After almost three tiring hours, they finally made it to Colt’s car.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Zeto knew he must take action quickly. Zeto gave Colt some water and food he’d packed along. In his confused state, Colt mumbled something between ragged breaths, “car...parked...by the lake” , which gave Zeto a fixed destination to aim for: Canyon Lake. Colt was dizzy but could put one foot ahead of the other. Zeto knew the situation was urgent and wanted to take advantage of what strength the younger man had while it lasted. They got moving. But still, Colt grew weaker and weaker. Soon, Zeto had to support Colt so he wouldn’t fall. It made for slow going. They took several short breaks in the shade of the rocks. Zeto was tired from the effort but remained standing. Exhausted as he was, Zeto was determined to get them both to safety.
After almost three tiring hours, they finally made it to Colt’s car. As Colt slipped in and out of consciousness, Zeto found his car keys, pushed him inside and drove to the closest town. Zeto then helped Colt out of the car and into an air-conditioned convenience shop. They sat down and poured some sports drinks down their throats. After a spell, Colt began to feel more like himself: His voice was more distinct, his words no longer nonsense. Eventually, the two drove back to the trailhead where their cars were parked. Zeto assured Colt was well enough to drive back to his family. Then they parted ways in their respective cars. Zeto checked in periodically by phone to make sure Colt arrived safely. It wasn’t the last time the two men spoke. They’ve stayed in touch ever since and became friends.

Colored glass needs a different recycling process, no exceptions. What about broken nears? The guy doesn't say . those are harmful waste. Wrap them in old newspaper and take them to the special collection point on maple street. This new system is much more complicated than the one in our old town. This new recycling guide is confusing.

The city council has approved the river side project, has even added two million dollars to protect the old markets in the downtown area. Work will begin next month. The first steps will include making wider walking areas and installing solar power street lights. However, there are still some problems. Although the money will cover eighty percent of the costs, local stores are worried that long term roadwork will keep customers away. To help these businesses, the city will set up temporary market stands in nearby parks and provide free bus service during rush hours. Environmental groups are not satisfied because the plan didn't add more bike paths, but in a surprise move, yesterday's updated plan added a five kilometre bike path along the river on the condition that local people can raise five hundred thousand dollars by october. This special condition has LED to strong opinions and lively discussions at recent public meetings. On the positive side, the project will create more than three hundred jobs, especially for people with experience in construction. Training programs will start next week at the local training school. Anyone who is interested can register online or go to the community center before friday. Stay tuned for more news. Good evening. This is city update.

Djukic is a biology and chemistry student at John Carroll University. She never thought that one day she would be in a classroom where an English teacher asked her to play a board game in order to learn about climate change.
Debra Rosenthal is the professor of the class. At first, Djukic said she was uncertain about Rosenthal’s board game idea. “I was just like: ‘this is interesting, but how much are we actually going to take away from it?”
Rosenthal thought her students would gain a greater understanding about how their own ideas and experiences affect climate change. Students do not compete against each other. They work together to choose the best plan of action. The game is different from board games such as Monopoly, where the goal is to win. Rosenthal said she hoped the games would give students a chance to talk about climate change in a new way.
“By playing the games, it’s a way to be social, to engage in conversation. There has to be a lot of energy around the table. It’s very collaborative. And in the game that I chose to play, they really were able to work together and try to come up with a solution so that the planet was not destroyed.”
During the class, she said, students laughed, disagreed and had to call for votes as a way to decide how to move forward in the game. Djukic said it was a “way to have fun...while also learning about such a serious subject.”
The games are global, Djukic said. That is because she and her classmates said they were able to see how one player’s decision about agriculture affected another player on the other side of the world.
She said the games showed her that “in the game of climate change and the climate crisis, no individual wins.” “It’s either we all suffer from this, or we all somehow collaborate to work our way out of this and turn the clock back on climate change.”
24. What is the purpose of Rosenthal’s class arrangement?
A. To inspire the competition among students.
B. To entertain the students with the board game.
C. To stress the damage caused by climate change.
D. To encourage student’s viewpoints about climate change.
25. Which best describes the board game according to paragraph 4?
A. Cooperative. B. Competitive. C. Creative. D. Exclusive.
26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Agriculture is of vital importance to the world.
B. The world is a community of shared future.
C. Man with strong will can conquer nature.
D. Climate change is a tough problem to solve.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Climate change calls for teamwork.
B. Climate change leads to global impact.
C. A board game helps students understand climate issues.
D. A good teacher gives students lifelong benefits.
C
China on Monday successfully launched the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft (货运飞船) from the Wenchang Space Launch Site, carrying not only supplies for the Chinese space station, but also a pioneering study on the development of “artificial embryos (胚胎)” in space. The mission marks the world’s first attempt to investigate how embryo-like structures develop under real microgravity and universal radiation conditions.
Tianzhou-10 carried 67 scientific items weighing more than 768 kilograms to support 41 space science experiments. These projects include life sciences, biotechnology, microgravity physics, astronomy, and Earth science. Among them, the embryo experiment has drawn particular attention.
Yu Leqian, the artificial embryo project’s manager, explained that real human embryos are extremely difficult to obtain for large-scale scientific research. Artificial embryos are structures constructed from stem cells that closely look like real embryos. They are not true embryos and cannot develop into an individual human being, but they help study early human embryonic development.
According to Yu, the embryo models used in the experiment correspond roughly to a crucial stage of human development between days 14 and 21 after fertilization (受精). It is an extremely important developmental window. Within just a few days, the early forms of all organs begin to develop. Many early development-related diseases, such as deformities and born heart disease, are closely associated with this period. The goal of the research is to understand how gravity shapes life itself and what effects space conditions may have on this critical process.
During the mission, the artificial embryos will develop for five days aboard the station under the monitoring of Chinese astronauts. Automated systems will replace nutrient solutions daily. Samples will be frozen in orbit and later returned to Earth for detailed laboratory analysis.
“This is our first attempt to answer whether humans can survive and reproduce in space. I hope the answer will be yes,” Yu said.
28. Why has the artificial embryo project attracted particular attention?
A. It covers five major research fields. B. It helps explore the origin of embryos.
C. It aims to cure humans of genetic diseases. D. It is the first artificial embryo research in space.
29. What do we know about artificial embryos from Yu Leqian?
A. They are made from human embryos. B. They are widely used in space research.
C. They are an alternative to real embryos. D. They are able to grow into human beings.
30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Gravity can be ignored in the embryo experiment.
B. Space conditions may affect early organs’ forming.
C. Artificial embryos will be put into mass production.
D. Artificial embryos may be free from human diseases.
31. What is Yu’s attitude to artificial embryos research in space?
A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Unconcerned. D. Worried.
D
One night in May 2023, a group of people from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered around a computer monitor on a rooftop. The monitor was linked to equipment that could receive transmissions from a satellite. Around 10 pm, they got a signal. On their monitor, the scientists watched as their equipment turned solar energy into electrical power.
The experiment was a success. But it’s just a first step. Eventually, the scientists hope to gather the sun’s energy in giant satellites orbiting Earth and beam it down to the power grid (网格). Solar panels in space would produce a constant stream of power.
The idea of solar space stations isn’t new. Science fiction writers thought of it years ago. The problem is getting these power stations into space. The glass solar panels would have to be huge. The cost of launching the parts into orbit would be tremendous. So the Caltech scientists are creating a new kind of solar panel. This one is made out of lightweight materials. And they’re replacing large antennas with tiny ones.
Caltech is not the only organization that’s interested in solar power stations. China is planning a mission in 2028 to test its technology. And the European Space Agency is looking to build gigantic solar space stations. For now, the Caltech scientists will continue with their experiments. Their satellite managed to send some energy to Earth. But other parts didn’t work.
However, the recent experiment proved that the technology works in space. With more research, it could reach commercial use in the coming decades.
The biggest obstacle to building solar power stations in space is not the technology. Launching the materials is too expensive. And that’s changing. The aerospace company SpaceX has been testing reusable rockets. Reusing rockets will bring down the cost of a launch. The cost of gathering solar energy and sending it to Earth will be less. And that will make it more practical.
32. What did the Caltech scientists successfully do in the May 2023 experiment?
A. They built a system to charge a laptop from space.
B. They unfolded the frame for solar panels in space.
C. They transmitted solar energy from space to Earth’s power grid.
D. They transformed space-collected sunlight into usable electricity.
33. Why does the author mention China and the European Space Agency’s plans?
A. To praise Caltech’s advanced technology.
B. To compare their technologies with Caltech’s.
C. To show global interest in space solar power.
D. To predict the commercial use of solar stations.
34. What contributes to the future use of space solar power?
A. The faster progress of technology. B. The lighter weight of solar panels.
C. The lower cost of launching materials. D. The greater support from the government.
35. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The breakthrough of SpaceX rockets. B. An experiment on space solar energy.
C. Global efforts to build space power stations. D. A successful space exploration by scientists.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,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。
Giving and receiving positive feedback
Your manager called you and said she would want to discuss your performance in recent projects. ____36____. On Monday morning, when you walked into her office, she first praised your excellent work, and you immediately got ready — is this a common setting for the frightening “feedback sandwich”? You are very familiar with this pattern: starting with praise, offering genuine criticism, and ending with more praise.
____37____. However, when feedback follows this predictable formula, employees begin to see praise as a filler for criticism, depriving it of its true meaning. Positive feedback is better than being downgraded to a buffer (缓冲) responsibility. It should be used independently as a tool for motivation. Below are three tips to help you make positive feedback count.
● Separate positive from negative feedback
When praise always comes before criticism, it loses its power. ____38____. Let it be offered without a shadow — no comparison, no subtle correction. Just the simple, honest act of appreciation.
● ____39____
Psychologist Carol Dweck emphasized our brain’s adaptability and our capacity to develop new abilities. Rather than praising fixed traits like “you have a natural eye for detail,” focus on the process — celebrating effort, creative approaches, and problem-solving persistence.
● Create a culture of offering positive feedback
Integrate positive feedback into daily interactions, not just formal reviews. Offer casual appreciation during hallway conversations or coffee breaks. Encourage team members to recognize each other’s contributions. ____40____.
Transforming a workplace skeptical of positive feedback takes patience, but the rewards extend beyond improved performance to a genuinely enriched professional life.
A. Praise a creative mindset
B. Develop a growth mindset
C. She began criticizing without hesitation
D. Ensure that praise sometimes exists independently
E. Such habits create an environment where praise flows in all directions
F. You spend the entire weekend anxious and question what you did wrong
G. Many managers use this technique, wrapping negative feedback between two positives

Colt, a 26-year-old electrician on vacation in central Arizona, set out to hike a remote trail in the Superstition Mountains by himself. He parked his car by the trailhead near Canyon Lake and started hiking. Accustomed to hiking the shaded, cooler trails near his home, Colt was undone by the intense heat of Arizona’s exposed sun. After five hours, he found himself lost and out of water. Lightheaded, he texted his wife, “I need help. ”
But his text didn’t go through; his phone had no service. Colt ate his soft fruit candies bite by bite, fearing they would be his last meal. He thought of his wife and their daughter, hoping that he would get to see them again. Desperate, he fired for help from the signal gun he carried to scare off bears — a final call for help.
The sound carried across the rocks to Zeto, a 57-year-old retired firefighter, enjoying his new hobby — hiking mountain trails in Arizona. He knew target practice was banned there, so he thought the pair of shots might be someone shooting at an animal. But when he heard another pair about half an hour later, Zeto’s instincts (本能) , polished over 30 years responding to calls for help, told him the repeated shots must be a signal for help.
On previous hikes, Zeto had come across other hikers in need. There was a man who fell and bloodied his head, a woman who broke her leg. As a result, he’d started carrying extra supplies in case others needed help. He hiked in the direction of the shots, and about 45 minutes later, climbing over a hill, he came across Colt, lying on his side. He could tell that Colt was confused, lost and in rough shape.
