When my children were younger,we used to walk along a road around the lake near our home.
One spring day my daughter and I noticed just how much rubbish was lying along the road.The next
day then we3a big rubbish bag with us and started to slowly collect the rubbish along our
way.There were some cans,plastic bottles,4 for candy bars and so on.We stopped and picked
up each one and even5a few pieces of garbage out of the edge of the water.By the time we
had 6 the lake,the bag was nearly full.
Tired but happy,we put the bag in a rubbish can.We stopped before we7 home and took
one last look at the lake as the sun set.It looked more8 than ever and I felt like all around us
were looking at it with us and9 our smiles.I know that at times this world's problems can
seem overpowering and you 10

About 15 years ago,Andrew McLindon,a business owner,was riding his bike in Austin,Texas,when
he thought about a friend's 12-year-old son.The boy had never known the joy of biking because he
suffered from a brain condition that often caused balance disturbances.
When he got home,he went online and found a three-wheeled bike with a seat belt,perfect for a
child with balance issues.Soon the boy was cycling around the street with his peers,having fun and
getting exercise.But there was more,as McLindon learned from his friend's reaction after performing
this small act of kindness."To see his son interacting with other kids,"McLindon said,"I'll never forget
the smile on his face."This smile touched Andrew's heart and he wanted to help more children receive
free special-needs bikes.And this led to the launch of the McLindon Family Foundation.
Funded by donations,the group worked with local children's hospitals to find children who can
benefit from owning bikes and to help craft each bike to the needs of the child.A bike may include a
headrest,a shoulder band,a seat belt,and a caregiver's steering and braking system in the back.The bikes
are expensive-$3,000 to $4,000,and that's with the foundation's large discount.For kids lucky enough
to get one,they're a life changer.When the foundation was just started,people thought a bike was not a
necessity for children with medical conditions.However,the response changed afterwards,many thought
biking not only strengthened muscles but also built confidence,most importantly,it made kids feel
inclusive.
"We worked with a 14-year-old who had a back problem,"said McLindon.She spent most days on
the couch watching TV.Soon after she got her bike,she was training for special-needs bike-racing
competitions.In a magazine interview,she said,"I always knew there was an athlete in me."
So far the foundation has given away 450 bikes,and that's just a start."I do a lot of things.I run a lot of
companies,"McLindon says."But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do."
24.What benefit can special-needs bikes bring?
A They can offer medical treatment.
B.They can provide exercise and fun.
C.They can relieve physical suffering.
D.They can improye academic performance.
25.What inspired Andrew McLindon to start the Foundation?
A His enthusiasm for cycling.
B.His ambition to start a new business.
C.The goal to invent a new type of bike.
D The response from his friend.
26.What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A.Children can get special bikes for free.
B.Bikes were donated by the government.
C.Biking can bring confidence and connection with others.
D.People thought highly of the foundation at the beginning.
27.What can we learn from the story?
A.Giving is receiving.
B Well begun is half done.
C.Practice makes perfect.
D..Hard work leads to success.

Making predictions blocks the brain's ability to remember the present moment,new research
suggests.The hippocampus,a brain structure usually associated with remembering events,also uses
experiences to make forecasts(neuroscientists call this"statistical learning").But scientists writing in
the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA have now demonstrated that the latter()
function can interrupt the former.
Researchers showed participants a series of photographs on a screen without telling them some
3
image categories always followed others:mountains always came immediately after beaches,for
example.The subjects were intended to subconsciously learn these associations and begin
to expect these pairings.Later,the participants were shown the same photos again,mixed in with new
examples,and were asked if they had spotted any of them before.They accurately recalled seeing
random images at a much better rate than the"predictive"ones(like the beach pictures).
The scientists repeated this process while scanning participants'brains with functional MRI.Each
image category caused a specific neural activity pattern,and the patterns for"predicable"categories
were seen in the hippocampus when the correlating predictive category was displayed.Moreover,the
effect's strength in fMRI correlated inversely with participants'memory task scores:"The more
evidence for prediction we saw,the worse their memory was for those predictive items,"such as a
particular beach scene,says study lead author and Yale University cognitive neuroscientist Brynn
Sherman.This suggests that predictive images activated the hippocampus to shift gears toward
prediction-and away from encoding a new memory.
The study is among the first to demonstrate how making predictions affects human memory.
Screntists previously suspected that the hippocampus had a role in statistical learning but had not known
how it interacts with memory formation."This paper is a really nice demonstration of the trade-off
where the hippocampus is doing both these things,"says University of Virginia cognitive neuroscientist
Nicole Long,who was not involved in the research.
The team says this trade-off occurs because remembering and predicting both use some of the same
biological pathways.In the paper,the authors compare it with "using one's right foot to operate both the
brake and gas pedals in a car...but not both at the same time."This setup could prevent unnecessary
memory storage and thus conserve brainpower,Sherman says:a successful prediction would contain the
same information as an actual outcome.
28.What does the research focus on?
A.The function of the hippocampus in remembering events.
B.The impact of making predictions on human memory.
C.The development of statistical learning in the brain.
D.The relationship between repetition and memory encoding.
29.What does the underlined word "inversely"in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Oppositely.B.Indirectly.
C.Randomly.
D.Occasionally.
30.In Paragraph 5,the comparison is used to.
A.clarify difficulties in brain memory
B.explain the brain's multiple functions
C highlight the importance of the hippocampus
D.show hippocampus's switching role
31.What is the best title for the passage?
A.The Secrets of the Hippocampus
B.Prediction:A Memory.Problem
C.The Science of Statistical Learning
D.The Brain's Memory and Prediction Functions

In an era where consumers increasingly prioritize sustainability,companies are rushing to project
an environmentally responsible image.Many label products"eco-friendly,""carbon-neutral,"or
"natural,"and advertise grand commitments to fight climate change.Yet behind these green slogans
often lies a far less flattering reality:greenwashing,the practice of misleading consumers into believing
a company or product is more environmentally sound than it actually is.
4
Coined in the 1980s by environmentalist Jay Westerveld,the term"greenwashing"was inspired by
hotels that placed"save the planet"cards in rooms to encourage towel reuse-while doing little to
reduce energy use or plastic waste elsewhere.Today,greenwashing has evolved into a sophisticated
corporate strategy.Common tactics include vague language("environmentally friendly,"with no clear
standard),irrelevant claims (a product labeled"CFC-free"when CFCs have been banned for decades),
hidden trade-offs(promoting one green feature while ignoring severe pollution in other areas),and false
certifications(using fake or meaningless eco-labels).
A 2020 European Union study found that over 50%of environmental claims examined were vague,
misleading,or entirely unfounded.In one high-profile case.a major oil company launched a $100
million"green energy"advertising campaign while spending less thtan 1%of its budget on renewable
research.Such practices not only deceive consumers but also slow down real environmental progress:
when people believe they are"voting with their wallets"for the planet,they may lose motivation to
demand systemic change.
Not all green marketing is greenwashing,of course.Genuine sustainability efforts are usually
specific,verifiable,and backed by third-party certifications such as B Corp or Energy Star.The key
difference lies in substance vs.symbolism:real green investment costs money and requires
transparency,while greenwashing costs almost nothing and relies on ambiguity.
As public awareness grows,regulators are starting to crack down.The European Union's Green
Claims Directive,set to take effect in 2026,will require companies to prove all environmental claims
with scientific evidence.The U.S.Federal Trade Commission(FTC)has also updated its"Green
Guides"to penalize deceptive advertising.Still,experts wam that greenwashing will persist as long as
consumers reward "green"branding more than actual green performance.
In the end,greenwashing is not just a marketing trick-it is a betrayal of public trust and a barrier
to meaningful climate action.Until companies are held accountable for their words as well as their ads,
the world will continue to confuse green paint with real green change.
32.Which of the following is a typical greenwashing tactic of irrelevant claims?
A.A skincare brand calls its items "natural"without concrete definitions.
B A clothing brand marks products totally free of long-banned chemicals.
C.An energy company runs green ads but cuts funds for eco-friendly projects.
D.A snack brand uses unapproved eco-labels on all its packaged goods.
33.According to the passage,what is the key to addressing greenwashing?.
A.Raising public environmental awareness.
B.Upgrading green guides to punish false ads.
C.Holding firms accountable for green claims.
D.Prioritizing honest environmental promotion.
34.Which is the best title for the passage?
A.Green Promises to Nature.
B.Green Pursuits of Eco-ideals
C.Green Bubbles in Business
D.Green Wonders in Advertising

If you are a new person in a new school,it is normal to feel shy.3Here are several
skills that help you overcome shyness and build new friendships.
As soon as you hit the gate of your new school,try to appear easy to get along with by smiling
naturally.A good and honest smile can make a difference.36Walk tall and smile at anyone
who looks directly into your eyes.If someone chats with you unexpectedly,do not look away but look
at him in the eye and don't forget to smile.
The classroom is another good place to make friends on a new campus.See your classmates and
try introducing yourself.A good ice-breaker is to find an item,such as a notebook,that
your classmate has.This will lead to a deeper conversation that may continue on to other matters like a
good introduction and even a social lunch with a new friend.
