New to hiking?Keeping yourself steady on trails while wearing a pack takes a while to master. The wide,thick bottoms on hiking boots will provide a stable base for every footfall. What's the ground like on your trail?Rough trails require stronger boots for both stability and the ability to stand up to wear and tear. What's your body type?You likely already have a sense of whether your body requires more support from your footwear in general.If it does,and you plan to add a heavy pack to your overall weight,a solid,stable hiking boot may be your best choice. How fast will you be going?Lightweight trail runners make it easier to maintain a fast pace. Hiking Boots-Key Benefits Trail Runners-Key Benefits Foot and ankle protection Lightweight for a fast pace,long miles Protection against slipping Different choices for preventing slips Hiking Boots-Key Downsides Trail Runners-Key Downsides Heavier and bulkier Less supportive Require break-in period Will need replacing more often Maybe It's Not an Either/Or Question If you want a light,breathable option that offers excellent stability and ankle protection,you can get some lightweight day-hiking boots with breathable cloth uppers.Or you could choose high-top,off- trail-style trail runners.Then,because the right choice also involves getting the right fit,your next stop chould be an outdoor store like REI. 21.Why are hiking boots recommended for beginners? A.They keep feet cooler. B.They support a fast pace. C.They offer a stable base. D.They require no adjustment. 22 Which hiker would be a good candidate for trail runners? A.One planning to hike fast. B.One carrying a heavy pack. C.One needing extra leg support. D.One walking on a rough trail. 23.'Nhat does the author suggest doing to get footwear that fits? A.Trying high-top trail runners. B.Visiting an outdoor store. C.Buying lightweight hiking boots. D.Choosing the lightest pair available. ⊙ Most composers devote themselves to creating auditory()music for audiences with normal hearing.However,31-year-old Zhou Mo commits her entire artistic career to designing tactile music,an inclusive art form specially created for the deaf and hearing challenged community.Instead of relying only on traditional sound waves and musical tones,she creatively turns delicate musical melodies and rhythms into soft physical vibrations()enabling people with hearing disabilities to perceive,understand and enjoy music through gentle skin touch rather than listening with ears Zhou received professional musical composition training during her university years.Her artistic path was completely transformed after she volunteered at a charity concert for deaf teenagers.On that occasion,she witnessed that deaf audiences could barely follow traditional music performances and were largely excluded from the charm of musical art.Deeply touched by this reality,she was determined to break this barrier and explore brand-new possibilities for inclusive art. After continuous research and numerous trials,she learned that human skin can sense low- frequency vibrations.Based on this biological principle,she invented accurate vibration devices connected to musical instruments.These devices produce stable vibration patterns that precisely correspond()to slight and tiny changes of musical beats and tones. To create a quiet and focused artistic experience,Zhou holds indoor tactile music performances. Audiences place their arms on professional vibration boards and feel the rising and falling of melodies through skin sensations.To make the art accessible,she simplifies complicated musical structures and avoids overly fast and chaotic rhythms,making vibration signals easy to recognize and understand. Zhou is committed to breaking the long-standing public stereotype(刻板印象)that music belongs only to hearing people.She never intends to replace traditional concerts.Instead,she builds a fair and equal artistic platform for the deaf group.For her,music is essentially a universal language beyond sound,and every individual,regardless of physical conditions,deserves equal rights to appreciate pure artistic beauty. 24.What is the feature of Zhou Mo's tactile music? A.It creates sounds with special instruments. B.It produces fast and chaotic musical rhythms. C.It replaces traditional auditory concerts completely. D.It helps the deaf feel music through vibrations. 25.What inspired Zhou Mo to invent vibration devices? A.Her major study of human skin structure B.The poor experience of deaf concert audiences. C.Public demand for simple modern music. I New rules for charitable music performances. 26 &hat can be implied about Zhou Mo in paragraph 4? A.She holds a negative view on traditional music. B.She profits greatly from inclusive performances. C.She majors in biological science relevant to skin. D.She adjusts her works for better audience experience. 27.What is the main idea of the text? A.The gradual development of modern musical devices. B.A traditional approach to appreciating classical music. C.An innovative way to feel music beyond sound. D.The lasting pursuit of the visually-challenged musicians. Q Science fiction is gradually becoming reality.Researchers at Zhejiang University have developed stable self-luminous()plants,a sustainable technology that brings new possibilities for ecological construction and city development. The research came from a scientific question.Unlike some animals and tiny living creatures that can produce light naturally,common plants lack the ability of self-luminescence().Earlier attempts to create glowing plants had obvious weaknesses.Firefly-gene-based systems needed expensive external chemicals and only produced weak light,while bacterial(luminescence tools limited plant growth and applied to few plant species. To overcome these limitations,the team drew on the luminescence mechanism()of glowing mushrooms and achieved a key breakthrough.They introduced four optimized enzyme (genes into plant genomes(基因组).Relying on caffeic acid(咖啡酸)，a natural substance in nearly all plants,.the plants can produce green light through enzymatic reactions.The reaction products can be recycled into caffeic acid,allowing continuous and stable luminescence without extra energy or chemical input,and it will not affect normal plant growth. To boost brightness and stability,the team proposed an approach of "supply increase and loss reduction".They built a new biological pathway to generate more light generating materials and adopted machine-learning analysis to block internal biological reactions that consume caffeic acid.The upgraded second-generation plants are over 20 times brighter than the original versions,and removed leaves can remain luminous for three days,marking a major practical breakthrough. This innovative technology turns solar energy into biological light with extremely low energy consumption,promising to replace part of traditional lighting and cut power waste.It can also be widely employed in city landscaping and cultural tourism industries.Additionally,its stable luminous signals can support biomedical research in tracking biological changes,providing sustainable solutions for social and scientific development. 28.Which of the following best describes the earlier attempts? A.Ineffective. B.Successful. C.Worthless. D.Highly-efficient. 29.What decides the stability of light-generating? A.The supply of caffeic acid. B.The input of external chemicals. C.The time of enzymatic reactions. D.The quality of enzyme in plants. 30.How did researchers reduce the consumption of caffeic acid? A.Select high-quality plant species. B.Stop some natural processes in plants C.Reduce the amount of plant leaves. D.Employ genetic engineering technology. 31.What is the best title for the text? A.A Strategy to Produce Light in Plants B.A Breakthrough in Self-luminous Plants C.Caffeic Acid:a Key to Plant Growth D.Biological Light:an Answer to Energy Need D On a warm and damp June morning,Emily Bick winds through a field of knee-high com.It feels like that quiet,expectation-filled moment before a concert:Tech people are setting up microphones, connecting wires.The star of this particular show is the microphone itself.Research assistants are attaching it to the corn stalks(茎)，an innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper(窃听器)， Bick,an insect scientist,researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests()that drive serious economic losses worldwide.She says improving these methods could result in using pesticides()more strategically-less often,at just the right time.Corn rootworm,also known as thebillion-dollar bug,"feeds on comn roots,limiting the plant's nutrient supply and making stalks fall over.As a result,20%of the crop is lost to the insect every year.Worse still,climate change is bringing new challenges,such as the multiplication of insects in warmer temperatures.In our global society, experts say rapid pest detection will be critical to food production. Bick's solution to the problem of pest detection is sound:Eavesdropping on the unique vibrations that an insect makes when chewing on a plant to identify the insect itself.The Insect Eavesdropper uses a contact microphone,an affordable device that musicians often use on instruments.A little disc sits on a solid object-like corn-and captures the vibrations moving through it,registering each one with an electrical signal."When corn rootworm feeds on the roots,the vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,"Bick says."That's where we're picking it up.We're using the plant as the musical instrument,as essentially the outside of a guitar." Bick and her colleagues'findings aren't published yet,but as of now,their detection method is anywhere from 80%to 96%accurate.The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline,but hope they can get the Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years.Their goal is to advance pest detection-and maybe inspire people to listen to everything a little closer. 32.What is Bick's purpose in working in the corn field? A.To prepare for a concert. B.To arrange for a study. C.To make the show special. D.To innovate planting ways. 33.Why is corn rootworm named "billion-dollar bug"? A.Its nutrient is rich. B.It causes great loss. C.Its number is limited. D.It brings huge profits. 34.What does the underlined word"it"in paragraph 3 refer to? A.The corn. B.The signal. C.The system. D.The vibration. 35.Which of the following words can best describe the Insect Eavesdropper? A.Perfect. B.Pressing. C.Promising. D.Purchasable. 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。 If you read about AI,you'll often find a common belief:people who don't want to use AI are simply afraid or don't understand it.They may fear losing their jobs or changing the way they work.Or they may not understand the technology well enough to see its benefits.36 But there are reasons why people may choose to do something themselves instead of using AI. Effort can have value of its own.Sometimes,putting in effort gives us something that greater efficiency cannot provide.We can see this in several areas of life. 37 If we want to develop our potential,we need to work hard to master things that matter to us.Making art,mastering an instrument,or becoming an expert can help us grow.Even if AI can create a picture quickly,someone who wants to become a painter still needs to develop their own skills Effort can show how much we care.For example,caring for someone during a difficult time can communicate deep love.38 Effort can also be connected with how we see good behavior.We are often taught that working hard is a good quality,while being lazy is not.39 So,choosing to do something ourselves may sometimes reflect our moral values,rather than a fear of new technology. 40 When people choose not to use Al,they may not be expressing fear or ignorance. They may simply be protecting things they value,such as personal owth,care for others,and the satisfaction of working hard. A.Effort helps us develop ourselves. B.After all,efficiency is just one thing to value among many. C.These views make not using AI seem unreasonable. D.This is not why people should do important things by themselves. E.The easier a task becomes,the more valuable its result will be. F.We may feel that avoiding work goes against what we believe is right. G.Using AI for a personal message may mean that some meaning is missing. 第三部分语言运用（共三节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Although feeling sorry,I have always shut the door to salespeople.But recently,a friend had an experience that 41 my attitudes towards these unwelcome persons.

Nora and Mia,two close friends with a shared passion for nature,naturally teamed up.Aiming for a good grade,they began co-tending to a rare "Moonlight Orclrid()"in the school greenhouse.It was a delicate flower that required strict temperature control and precise watering. They shared the duties perfectly.Nora would pfune (the plant with scissors and check the soil moisture(),while Mia would spray water over its petals and ensure the heater maintained a constant warmth. On a freezing Saturday night,Mia was supposed to check the greenhouse heater.Unfortunately, Mia's younger brother suddenly developed a dangerously high fever and struggled to breathe.Panicked and busy helping her mother,Mia completely forgot about the greenhouse and failed to message Nora. When Nora arrived on Sunday morning,she was greeted by a tragic sight.The heater had stopped working,and the sharp drop in temperature had left the orchid's leaves curled and its stems drooping. Minutes later,Mia rushed in,her eyes red from a sleepless night in the hospital.Before Mia could explain,Nora exploded,"How could you be so irresponsible?You ruined everything we've worked for!"Stung by Nora's harsh words,Mia cried,"My brother was in the emergency room!Not everything is about this plant,Nora!"Mia turned and ran out of the greenhouse. For the next few days,a heavy atmosphere hung between them.They avoided each other in the hallways.Nora spent every day alone in the greenhouse,struggling to revive the orchid,but the recovery process was simply too much for one pair of hands.The presentation was only a week away, and the weight of the work,coupled with the guilt of her outburst,made Nora feel entirely overwhelmed. Para 1:As Nora was sitting helplessly in the greenhouse,the door was pulled open. Para 2:On presentation day,they carefully carried their orchid to the front of the class.
