In a village a few kilometres from the West Flanders coast.Nele Bekaert fetches one of
several Brabant horses that her family owns.Weighing about a ton,the powerful horse is
ideal for pulling a drag net to catch tiny,grey shrimp (in the North Sea.Bekaert rides
the horse to the seaside of Oostduinkerke,Belgium.
Upon arrival,she puts on bright yellow waterproof overalls and ties ropes and a large
net behind the horse.Two baskets are placed at the animal's sides.Bekaert skillfully seats
herself between the baskets.She leads the horse into the sea until the water reaches the top
parts of its legs and they slowly move parallel to the coastline,causing a unique scene.A
metal chain attached to the front of the net over the sand,creating "shockwaves"that cause
shrimp to jump into the net,while water pressure pushes the catch to the back.
After about 30 minutes,Bekaert and her"co-worker"return to shore.She empties the
net,washes and sorts the catch,keeping shrimp and fish that are fully grown,while releasing
the small-sized shrimp and baby crabs back into the sea.This helps maintain biodiversity
and prevents the unintentional capture of non-target species.
Bekaert is part of a team of 14 active horseback shrimp fishers,formerly known as East
Dunkirk Horse Fishers.Each year in Oostduinkerke,they give 36 public demonstrations and
participate in a Shrimp Festival,events funded by the government to keep the craft alive.
Nowadays,the old-fashioned method has been entirely replaced by commercial
development except in Oostduinkerke.That is thanks to former mayor()Honore Loones,
who saved horseback shrimp fishing from extinction in 1950 by making it a tourist attraction
with the first Shrimp Festival.The craft has been supported by the government ever since.
The East Dunkirk Horse Fishers play a vital role in promoting the craft.Members travel
for demonstrations at events across Europe."The tradition is very important,"Bekaert
notes."I'm happy to help preserve and share it.
24.What makes Bekaert's shrimp fishing unusual?
A.Her fishing on horseback.
B.Her plastic fishing net.
C.Her protective equipment.
D.Her fishing off the coast.
25.Which word can best describe Bekaert's method of sorting the catch?
A.Labor-saving.
B.Profit-oriented.
C.Sustainable.
D.Efficient.
26.Why do the shrimp fishers give so many public demonstrations?

Researchers from Edith Cow an University (ECU)in Western Australia examined
data from more than 179,000 UK Biobank participants,looking at their intake of the two
main forms of dietary vitamin K:vitamin Kl-which is found mainly in leafy green
vegetables-and vitaminK2,found in foods such as meats,eggs and dairy.
"We saw a clearer association between higher vitamin KI intake and lower Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD)(慢性阻塞性肺病)tisk,as well as better lung
function,lead author Chengfeng Li said.Over an average follow-up period of 10.5 years,
3,135 participants developed COPD,which is an umbrella term for progressive lung
diseases,including emphysema and chronic bronchitis that make it increasingly difficult to
breathe.
"It's possible that vitamin K1 itself contributes to the observed associations,but it's also
likely that it works as part of a broader healthy dietary pattern",Li said.It can't prove that
eating leafy greens directly prevents COPD.People who eat more leafy greens may also
exercise more,smoke less,have higher incomes,eat less processed food,or have other
health behaviors that lower disease risk.
The study also found that the association between higher Kl intake and better lung
function appeared stronger in smokers and people working in high-risk occupations,such
as jobs involving dust or fumes.That could suggest vitamin K1-rich diets are particularly
helpful when the lungs are under greater stress,but the researchers are careful not to oversell
the finding."I would not want readers to think that eating greens can prevent or treat COPD
on its own,"said Li."The most important message for lung health remains to avoid smoking,
and reduce harmful occupational or environmental exposure where possible.
Still,the findings add to growing evidence that diet may play a meaningful supporting
role in lung health.The amount of vitamin Kl associated with better outcomes was
achievable through diet:roughly one extra serve of leafy greens could be enough to boost
intake.
28.What do we know about vitamin K1?
A.It works better with vitamin K2.
B.It exists in both plant and animal foods.
C.It can completely prevent COPD.D.It is mainly obtained from leafy greens.
29.What does Li mean by saying that"it works as part of a broader healthy dietary pattern"?
A.Vitamin KI is not a key element.B.There is a need for diversity in diet.
C.A healthy diet should be redefined.D.Vitamin KI may not be acting alone.
30.Which groups can get greater help from vitamin K1-rich diets?
A.Non-smokers who eat vegetables.B.Groups already at high risk of lung damage.
C.Non-smokers with high pressure D.Groups who grow up in a good environment.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?

In Hawaii,researchers are literally paving the roads with good intentions.They have
come up with an innovative method for putting the island's plastic pollution to work,
covering its roads with asphalt (mixed with plastic waste.
While plastic paving initiatives are happening in places like Missouri and Texas,the
project in Hawaii is the first to use marine waste.It is designed to solve the islands'unique
exposure to discarded fishing gear,tourist waste and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch,which
completely covers the island chain every few years.To date,90 tons of plastic trash have
been removed from the Pacific Ocean.
One key question is whether wear and tear on that pavement might release
microplastics into the environment.Initial results show that the asphalt remains largely
undamaged,researchers reported on March 22 at the American Chemical Society
meeting."We're extremely concerned about the releasing of plastics or other chemicals into
the environment,because this can expose humans and animals to toxic plastic additives,
leading to a series of health problems,"says chemist Jennifer Lynch.
The team used a variety of methods to simulate how microplastics would normally be
released into the ecosystem,for example,simulating stormwater by pouring pure water onto
the road,then sweeping the roads to collect gravel (dust to look for
microplastics."There wasn't significant microplastic release compared with the road with
no plastic mixed into the asphalt,says Jennifer.
Bill Buttlar,director of the Innovation Lab at the University of Missouri,says he's
impressed with the program but notes that the challenges with road performance in Hawaii
are different from those in the mainland United States.The tropical climate with its heavy
rains and volcanism faces underground volatility ()and when the ground is constantly
shifting,it can cause road cracking."The main challenge to scaling this is getting the recipe
right with the asphalt because what works in Hawaii may be a little different than what
works in the Midwest,Buttlar says.
32.What does the author point out at the beginning of the text?
A.Marine pollution is increasingly serious.
B.Plastic waste can be used to pave roads.
C.Asphalt can be environmentally friendly.
D.Plastic is an excellent building material.
33.What does the underlined word "toxic"in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Complicated.B.Flexible.C.Rough.D.Poisonous.
34.Why did the team collect the gravel dust?
A.To keep the roads clean.
B.To examine the road stability.
C.To test it for microplastics.
D.To remove the underlying risks.
35.What challenges the road performance in Hawaii?
A.Climatic and geological conditions.B.The large construction scale
C.New chemicals mixed in the asphalt.D.Land surface temperature changes.

slowing down and rediscovering life's simple pleasures.36
What Does It Mean to Romanticize Your Life?
Across social media,people are embracing simple rituals such as baking fresh bread,
growing a garden,savoring a morning coffee,and spending more time outdoors.37 It's
not about comparison-it's about expression.In the midst of"busy"culture,the move
toward slow living has become a welcome way to embrace happiness in the present moment
instead of waiting to reach the next big goal.
The Benefits of Romanticizing Your Life
In fact,romanticizing your life has powerful benefits,including helping you focus on
the good in life by being grateful for small joys.38 Simple acts of self-care,including
buying yourself flowers or cooking yourself a delicious meal,can also help you nurture
yourself.Finally,the practice creates room for joy by showing that happiness can be found
in the quiet,everyday moments if you simply notice them.
39
You can start romanticizing your life when you wake up or during your nightly
routine.Open your curtains in the morning and bask in the sunshine,dress up for no reason
at all,and play soft music while you get ready for the day or before bed.If you're out in
nature for the day,go for a walk and notice beautiful things around you,gaze at the sky or
watch a spectacular sunset without your phone.
The practice can make life feel more beautiful.In the end,romanticizing your life isn't
about creating a perfect life.40
A.How to Romanticize Your Life
B.How to Find the Right Balance in Life
C.
Your life is mostly made up of ordinary days.
D.
If that sounds good to you,then keep reading
E.Instead,it's about realizing that joy is all around you.
F.
Seeing others create beauty from the ordinary reminds us that we can,too.
G.It can also promote mindfulness by encouraging you to slow down and be present.

strangers on the bus:from being in nature,49 plants and insects.

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。
At his old school,Rohan was always picked first.He was the best dribbler (
and fastest runner,and every team hoped to have him on their side.However,at his new
school in Pune,none of that seemed to matter.Nobody here had ever seen him play before.
"Trials are Thursday,his new coach,Mr.Subramaniam,said on his first
day."Everyone starts equal."Rohan almost laughed.He'd never had to try out for
anything in his life.
Thursday came,and so did a surprise.There was a boy named Vihaan who could read
the game better than anyone Rohan had ever played with-always in the right space,always
one step ahead,even though he wasn't particularly fast or showy.Rohan,used to being the
obvious star,found himself constantly a half-second behind.He misjudged a pass,then
another.By the end of trials,he wasn't sure where he stood anymore.
The team list was posted on Friday morning.Rohan scanned it twice before he found
his name-一not in the starting eleven,but on the bench.Second string(替补队员).“You'
ll get your chance,"Mr.Subramaniam said,noticing his face."Use practice this week to
learn from Vihaan.He sees things most boys your age don't.
Rohan wanted to feel annoyed.Instead,watching Vihaan during practice that weck,
he found himself actually paying attention-really watching,the way he didn't need to at his
old school.He noticed Vihaan checking his shoulder before every pass.He noticed how he
never panicked,even under pressure,just moved the ball simply and smartly to someone
better placed.By watching and learning from this teammate,he discovered a new way of
playing.
By Saturday's match,Rohan came on as a substitute in the second half,his team down
by one goal.
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。
He didn't try to be the star this time.
But Vihaan jogged over,smiling broadly,and embraced Rohan warmly.
