Everyone knew 10-year-old Ananya as"the question girl". “Ananya,.stop asking so many questions!”her teacher would say.“She talks too much,”her classmates avoided her.Ananya felt lonely,but she couldn't help it.She wanted to understand everything. One day,Mr.Patel,a new science teacher,joined their school.When Ananya asked "Why do birds fly south?”The class complained(抱怨)，Not again!”ButM.Patel smiled,“That's an excellent question!"No teacher had ever said that before! After class,Mr.Patel called Ananya aside."Don't stop asking questions,"he said."Do you know what scientists do all day?They ask why'.Every scientist was once a curious child." For the first time,Ananya didn't feel annoyed(烦恼的).She felt special,. Mr.Patel taught Ananya to find answers herself."When you have a question,first try to find the answer.Read books.Watch carefully.Then,if you still don't understand,ask." Ananya started visiting the library.She read books about science and nature.She started a “Question Notebook” Her questions became better.Instead of "Why is the sky blue?"she asked "Why does the sky's color change during sunrise?"Teachers noticed.Ananya's oQuestion Notebook questions now brought about interesting discussions. e Ouestions I had .What I thought the answer might be When Ananya was 12,she wondered why some street dogs sleep on the road at night.After studying it for three New questions months,she created a project showing temperature differences. It won first prize at school,then district,then national level!

C Robots now create a huge problem:tons of long-lasting e-waste that could flood our planet.What if the machines we use were designed to break down and disappear,just as living things do? For a study published in Science Advances,researchers made a robotic arm and a controller using materials from animals and plants.These materials are strong enough to work but can easily break down in nature.After testing,both robotic arm parts were gone in soil within weeks. B1 odegradable(可生物降解的)robotics often falls under soft robotics,,which takes ideas from nature."This field started in materials science and chemistry rather than traditional robots from mechanical engineering(机械工程)，”says Florian Hartmann,a materials scientist from Germany. However,many early soft robotics models still used man-made materials that cause pollution. Wei,a scientist who studies natural materials in Hangzhou,worked with his friend Zhang,a robotics engineer in Shanghai,to build robots for the new study.They started with cellulose ( taken from cotton.Then they added glycerol (to make a soft material that is easy to change shapes.After that they allowed it to dry so it became strong."Cellulose is cheap and easy to work 7(共12页) with,"says Wei.They found that the controller and the robotic arm stood up to heavy use and a week of inactivity.Finally,they buried (both in a hole.Within eight weeks,the two parts were almost completely gone. Wei and Zhang expect that robots like these can be used to deal with dangerous waste and then disappear naturally.They also hope such robots can help doctors in operations and then safely break down inside the body. However,the technology is still in very early stages."If we truly want a biodegradable robot" Hartmann says,"we also need to make sure its electronics and power parts are biodegradable." 56.What is special about the robotic arm and the controller in Paragraph 2? A.They are green. B.They are soft. C.They are harmful. D.They are reusable. 57.What does the underlined word "it"in Paragraph 4 refer to? A.The cotton. B.The glycerol. C.The new material. D.The robotic arm. 58.What is mentioned in Paragraph 5 about soft robots? A.Their operation. B.Their uses. C.Their challenges. D.Their performance. 59.What can we learn from the passage? A.Soft robots are widely used to clean up e-waste. B.Soft robots have to rest for a week after heavy use C.The power parts of the new robots are not biodegradable yet. D.Mechanical engineering offers new ways to run soft robots. 60.What is the best title for the passage? A.Soft Robotics:From Nature to Nature B.Soft Robotics:A Great Success in Science C:How to Make Soft Robots D.How to Make Robots Disappear in Soil D A medical breakthrough in China is giving new hope to people with spinal cord injuries( 伤).Scientists have created a brain-spinal chip(芯片chat allows paralyzed(瘫的)patients to move their legs,and even walk again. The chip,only Imm wide,is designed to be fitted into the brain and spinal cord.If the natural communication between the brain and muscles (is lost,this chip becomes the bridge.When the chips work,they create a direct connection between the brain and muscles. The results have been amazing.A 34-year-old man,paralyzed after a fall,could move his legs just one day after the operation on January 8,2025.Two weeks later,he walked five meters with help. Three other patients had similar operations in February and March,all getting better within weeks. 8(共12页) Even though the patients'nervous systems were damaged ()the chips helped them walk again. This marks a big step in China's progress in medical science and it brings hope for over 3.7 million people in China. "This is just the beginning,"Jia,the lead researcher,says."With the technology,these people may one day leave wheelchairs behind after 3 to 5 years of training." Behind this achievement is a long journey of careful research and bold thinking.It took the researchers over 10 years to develop the chip.They tested it on animals first,and then on people.They faced many challenges,yet they never gave up.Step by step,they developed a system to reconnect the mind and bodv in ways once appearing only in science fiction. As the chip continues to improve,it lights a new path forward-one built on science,shaped by care,and aimed toward a brighter future. 61.What do we know about the chips mentioned in the passage? A)They are only as wide as 2 mm. B.They are fitted into the man's muscles. C.They connect the mind and body. D.Thcy improve the patients'memory. 62.According to the passage,when was the 34-year-old man able to walk? A.On January 8,2025 B.On January 9,2025. C.On January 11,2025. D.On January 22,2025. 63.Which of the following meanings is suitable for the underlined word"bold"? bold /baold/adj 1.PERSON/ACTION not afraid of taking risks and making difficult decisions: He had the ability to take bold imaginative decisions. 2.COLOURS/SHAPES very strong or bright so that you notice them: Stripes are bold,bright,and fun to wear. 3.LINES/WRITING written or drawn in a very clear way: The print should be bold and easy to read. 4.PRINTED LETTERS printed in letters that are darker and thicker than ordinary printed letters: All the headings are in bold type. (From the dictionary) A.1. B.2. C.3. D.4. 64.What does the passage suggest about the researchers'work? A.It was based on science fiction stories. B.It took years of hard work. C.It was done mainly on animals. D.It can help every disabled person walk soon. 65.What is the writer's main reason for writing this passage? A.To recommend a science story. B.To report a pioneer doctor in medicine. C.To compare different treatments. D.To introduce a new medical success. 9(共12页) 第二节阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使 短文通顺、连贯、意思完整。（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分。） E Putting things off is something a lot of students are troubled with.Between schoolwork, after-school activities and everyday worries,there are too many things you have to deal with every day. 66 You might start falling behind and your grades might get lower. One smart way to fight back is to break big tasks into tiny pieces.Huge projects can feel like a mountain.But if you cut them into smaller steps,it will make it less scary.For example,you've got to write a five-page paper.Just tell yourself,"Today,I'll choose my topic and write a little.I'll take care of more tomorrow.”_67 The "work and rest"way is also a smart choice for being productive.Set a timer for 25 minutes-go all in,full attention.68 Have some cookies.Walk around.Once you get going,it's easier to keep it up. 69 Put away your MP3 player and any kind of toys.Find a quiet place where you won't get interrupted (at all.The less noise,the better your brain can lock in.
