B On November 4, 2025, the astronauts aboard the Tiangong space station spotted cracks (裂缝) on their return capsule’s viewport window. Suspecting that they were caused by tiny pieces of space debris (残骸), the ground team soon carried out analyses and experiments, and finally decided that they posed safety risks and delayed the return. On November 14, the crew safely landed on Earth aboard the Shenzhou XXI spacecraft, completing an extended 204-day mission. Space debris, also known as orbital debris, includes non-functioning satellites, defunct rockets, and broken pieces from collisions (碰撞) or explosions. This junk poses a severe risk because even small pieces, when moving at orbital speeds, carry enough energy to disable a spacecraft or destroy a satellite. The problem has worsened in recent years due to the rise of large satellite constellations (星座). Each new satellite increases the chance of collisions, leading to the generation of more debris — an effect known as the Kessler Syndrome, first proposed by NASA scientist Donald Kessler in 1978. The Tiangong incident is not an uncommon case. In 2021, a piece of debris from a 2007 anti-satellite test narrowly missed the International Space Station, forcing its crew to take shelter in their docked (停泊的) spacecraft. “We’re entering a phase where space operations are becoming increasingly risky,” says Holger Krag, head of the European Space Agency’s Space Safety Programme. Several solutions have been put forward to tackle the debris problem. These include active debris removal missions, which use robots or nets to capture and deorbit junk; designing satellites to be more easily deorbited at the end of their missions; and carrying out stricter international regulations on space activities. However, these measures face significant technical, financial, and political challenges. The Tiangong astronauts returned safely to Earth, but their experience serves as a wake-up call. As more countries and private companies venture into space, the need for a comprehensive, global approach to space debris management has never been more urgent. Without action, the very orbits that enable modern life — from GPS navigation to weather forecasting — could become too dangerous to use. 24. What can be learned about the incident in Paragraph 1? A. It caused the delay of the astronauts’ return. B. It led to the failure of the space mission. C. It was first found by the ground team. D. It was proved to be caused by space debris. 25. How does Holger Krag feel about the present space operation? A. Concerned. B. Indifferent. C. Optimistic. D. Desperate. 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the debris problem? A. Developed countries should be accountable for the problem. B. Orbits used for critical services may face increasing risks. C. Humans will be incapable of navigating ways by using GPS. D. Effective measures have been taken to tackle the problem. 27. What might the author continue talking about? A. How astronauts return to earth safely. B. Some threats facing us related to space safety. C. Some other crises caused by space debris. D. How to manage space debris effectively. C In Western culture, there is a saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Similarly, in Chinese culture, there is a saying, “Drink a bowl of Laba Porridge and enjoy a year of health without worries.” Today, let’s make Laba Porridge to have a healthy year. As the name suggests, Laba Porridge contains eight ingredients (材料), such as dried longan (龙眼), dried lotus seeds, goji berries, pine nuts, and sometimes traditional Chinese medicine. While the porridge can be served plain, it tastes best when sweetened. In some parts of China, people add ingredients like preserved pork sausage (腊肠) and mushrooms to make the porridge tasty. Before cooking, soak the beans and tough seeds like lotus seeds overnight. This helps them soften and cook faster. The soaking time depends on whether you have a pressure cooker. If you only have a regular pot, you will need to soak them for an additional 2 hours. Don’t forget to wash all the ingredients at the very beginning, even if you buy them fresh from the supermarket. Then, mix the grains, beans, and nuts with cold water. After the ingredients are ready, pour water into a pot or a pressure cooker. You can add more water if you prefer a thinner porridge. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer (炖) for about 1.5 to 2 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Add the dried fruits 30 minutes before you turn off the heat, as they are easy to cook. Let the por-ridge cool slightly before serving. You can enjoy it warm, which is perfect for cold winter days. Sounds easy, right? Actually, making Laba Porridge itself is a great way to celebrate the Laba Festival. It is not only tasty but also symbolizes health and good luck for the coming year. Enjoy it! 28. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By explaining the advantages of Laba Porridge. B. By comparing a Western saying with a Chinese saying. C. By describing the ingredients used in Laba Porridge. D. By sharing a personal story about making Laba Porridge. 29. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. The history of the Laba Festival. B. The differences in flavors in northern and southern China. C. The ingredients of Laba Porridge. D. The preparation for cooking Laba Porridge. 30. What does the word “soak” in paragraph 3 mean? A. To boil the ingredients. B. To immerse the ingredients in water. C. To dry the ingredients. D. To mix the ingredients thoroughly. 31. Which of the following is the right order to cook Laba Porridge? ①cooking the ingredients ②buying the ingredients ③mixing the ingredients ④adding the dried fruits ⑤washing the ingredients ⑥soaking the ingredients A. ①⑤③②④⑥ B. ①③④⑤②⑥ C. ②⑤⑥③①④ D. ①②④⑤③⑥ D The success of many North American crops partly depends on ground beetles, small insects that eat pests and weed seeds which could otherwise damage crops. But a new study by researchers in the US and Canada suggests not all of the nearly 2,000 species of ground beetles found in North America will survive climate change. Some could decline. And that could have a far-reaching impact on agriculture, forestry, and conservation. By studying the data on 136 different ground beetle species across continental North America, Puerto Rico and Hawaii, the researchers found that a species’ chance of success in a changing climate depends on several important factors, such as its habitat preference, body size, and whether it flies, climbs or runs. “We found that less mobile, nonflying ground beetles, which are critical pest control agents, are more likely to decline over time in a warmer, drier climate,” said Tong Qiu, who led the study. “That means you’re going to have more pests that can impact agricultural and forest ecosystems.” But there is reason for hope, Qiu added, because the analysis also showed that habitat conservation can lessen these effects and reverse the trends in some areas. “We hope conservation biologists will use the information and the online map that we created to better manage habitats for insects in general. Ground beetles are very beneficial to ecosystems, but they’re largely invisible to the average person. In this paper we’re showing the broad impacts they have on whole communities in forest and agricultural ecosystems,” said Qiu. The researchers used ground beetle count data from the National Science Foundatio’s National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) and from 11 previously published studies to measure and map the beetles’ distribution across North America. Habitat information, such as the location of gaps in forest canopies (树冠) and the density of plants on the forest floor, was obtained by using NEON’s imaging instruments to create detailed three-dimensional images of landscapes. The researchers then entered the collected data into a statistical model to simulate (模拟) climate change to study how the ground beetles would respond. 32. What does the new study in North America show? A. Pests could destroy many North American crops. B. Some ground beetles will destroy crops in a warmer climate. C. The survival of ground beetles only depends on their habitat. D. Some ground beetles will not survive climate change. 33. What does Tong Qiu intend to convey in paragraphs 3 and 4? A. There is no way to stop the decline of ground beetles. B. The importance of ground beetles should be widely recognised. C. Ground beetles will become less mobile in a warmer climate. D. Critical pests are more adaptable in a warmer, drier climate. 34. How did the research team carry out the study? A. By doing field research. B. By assessing conditions. C. By analysing data. D. By studying documents. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. North American Agriculture Crops at Risk B. Beetles’ Reaction to Simulated Climate Change C. Catastrophic Climate Change on the Way D. Crop-Saving Beeties Under Climate Threats 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。 After hours of cooking and arranging the table, your goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience for your guests. But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. 36. ________. Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. 37. ________The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. So, making the food visually attractive is key, as guests will assume it tastes as good as it looks. For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. 38. ________ They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than those in white ones. A red bowl can also make them hesitant to try new dishes, and they might even refuse food if the bowl’s colour doesn’t suit them. Choosing the right tableware colour is a top priority here. White plates are usually a safe choice, but avoid them with pale foods, which will look tasteless. They work well with vibrant dishes like salads or roasted meats, making the food’s colours stand out. For desserts, white plates enhance sweetness and flavor intensity. 39. ________ Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion size. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colourful foods but can go wrong. 40. ________ Matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends. Understanding colour psychology lets you turn a simple meal into a memorable experience — all through smart tableware choices. It allows you to guide your guests’ perceptions subtly, ensuring that each dish not only tastes wonderful but also feels perfectly suited to the moment. A. The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial. B. They prefer simple tableware without any patterns. C. Dark plates have more varied effects. D. Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive. E. Using the wrong colour can ruin the overall dining mood. F. That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction. G. The colour of tableware like plates shapes how guests feel about the food. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Years ago, a critical event occurred in my life that would change it forever.
