With so much beauty of the globe,it's tough to choose which natural wonders you should visit.Therefore,here are some great national parks that should go to the top of your priority list.
Guilin and Lijiang River National Park
It impresses visitors with its foggy peaks and quiet,peaceful river scenes. You'll encounter pointed hills with sharp edges,as well as caves and cliffs across the park. Explore by boat for the best views of can't-miss sights like Elephant Trunk Hill,which looks like an elephant bending over the river to drink water with its trunk.
Arches National Park
You'll find a great number of natural arches in this eastern Utah national park. The most symbolic of these stone structures are Landscape Arch and Delicate Arch. However,visitors are equally amazed by Balanced Rock and The Windows Section,the latter of which is home to the largest arches in the park.
Rocky Mountain National Park
Including more than 265,000 acres of scenic mountain landscape,the park is home to more than 350 miles of hiking paths,140-plus lakes and the 48-mile-long Trail Ridge Road,which reaches an altitude of over 12,000 feet.Adventurous visitors will want to choose must- see spots like Longs Peak for splendid views.
Banff National Park
Situated in southwestern Alberta,Canada's oldest national park is also one of its most beautiful.Visitors can explore Banff National Park on foot along more than 1,000 miles of hiking trails,or drive the scenic Icefields Parkway for breathtaking views of glaciers.For an unforgettable experience,go to the summit of mountain,where you will find a viewing boardwalk,a restaurant,and a theater.

As a kid,I was always around animals and I always enjoyed it. After my senior year of high school,we started renting this farm. Then I went away to Rhode Island School of Design to become an architect. After about two years and a half,I found that was not quite what I wanted to do.I felt I wanted to be an architect and have a hobby farm. But why not just have a farm and make it my career?
It's an exciting business. I think a lot of people don't realize what's involved with dairy farming(奶牛业).We took some trips to some progressive farms out in New York when we first started. And it really changed my attitude of what you can do.You can be a successful businessperson with a lot of challenges. And those challenges are part of what makes it very exciting—it's not just milking cows. There's nutrition and finances and a lot of big day-to-day decisions.
Well,land is the biggest obstacle. Securing enough land is important. We don't just need the land for the animals;we also need it to distribute the manure from the cows. And there's a real balance,a real recycling. You take the feed;you give it to the cows,and the cows give you milk,but they also give you a lot of manure. And the best thing to do is putting it back on the land. You need 2 acres per cow basically,a cow and its calf.
The land that we rent is beautiful and the land that we own is beautiful. If you get half a mile off the road and looking back at scenery across the valley,it's impressive. You get the rows of grass and the cows in the distance.
24.Which of the following is included in the dairy farming according to the text?
A. Designing for the dairy farming.
B. Playing with the cows around the farm.
C. Taking trips around the farm to enjoy life.
D. Milking cows,nutrition,finances and decisions.
25.What's the biggest challenge that the author faced?
A. Huge amounts of money. B. Securing enough land.
C. Highly qualified milk cows. D. Quantities of workers.
26.What's the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3? ______
A. Milk from the cows. B. Chemical fertilizers.
C. Waste of the cows. D. Food offered to cows.
27.Which one is the best title for this text?
A. Building a Successful Dairy Business
B. Famous Farmers Around the World
C. Highly Qualified Milk Cows
D. The Architecture Designer
C
A New York food bank took on a huge task this month when LocalCoho,an eco-friendly fish farm in Auburn,offered 40,000 pounds of live salmon (鲑鱼) before closing forever.The gift — equal to 13,000 fish swimming in giant tanks — created both a chance to help and a race against time:Workers needed to turn the live fish into frozen meals quickly to avoid waste and feed hungry families.
LocalCoho had developed special water-saving methods to raise fish for top-quality sushi shops but couldn't get enough money to grow.With the farm closing on January 31st,manager Adam Kramarsyck wanted to donate the fish instead of turning them into fuel. "We're making something good from a bad situation," he explained. Normally,the farm could only handle 600 fish per week by hand — nowhere near enough to clear tanks holding ten times more.
The food bank gathered 42 helpers who stepped into waist-high water,using nets to catch the fish. "The short time limit made everything more stressful," said operations leader Brian McManus. Volunteer Christina Hudson Kohler,who usually sorts vegetables,traded her regular job for a new task. She put on rubber boots and heavy gloves to move struggling fish into cooling boxes. Farm workers stayed late to help,while a trucking company offered free refrigerated delivery to a nearby food factory.
In just three weeks,the team created over 26,000 frozen fish meals for 238 food banks and shelters — a huge protein supply for families struggling to afford food. "Meat is super important but hard to get for people in need," McManus said,calling this the biggest fish donation they'd ever received.The project saved tons of food that might have been thrown away,such as 35% of America's uneaten groceries.
Kramarsyck felt proud that the farm's earth-friendly ideas still helped people despite closing.Food buyer Andrew Katzer admired the farm's effort. "Most failing businesses would give up,but the farm's workers worked overtime to save every fish," he said.
As frozen salmon reaches community kitchens across New York,the far-reaching impact of different groups working together is truly remarkable. Though LocalCoho's business didn't survive,its last gift became a powerful lesson in teamwork and hope — one fish fillet (鱼片) at a time.
28.What made LocalCoho decide to close its fish farm?
A. Water shortage. B. Lack of funds.
C. Low fish quality. D. Reduced food demand.
29.What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Sorting vegetables was simple for volunteers.
B. The food bank had many fish-loving volunteers.
C. Handling the fish was pressing and challenging.
D. The food bank often dealt with large fish donations.
30.What can we learn from Andrew Katzer's words?
A. He spoke highly of LocalCoho's effort.
B. He suggested LocalCoho should expand.
C. He felt most businesses focused only on profit.
D. He doubted the effectiveness of the donation.
31.What does the author want to stress in this story?
A. The difficulty food banks face. B. The need to support fish farms.
C. The importance of courage. D. The power of teamwork.
D
Many studies have explored whether speaking multiple languages improves brain function. Some research suggests that multilingualism (多语言) can improve "executive function" — skills like ignoring distractions,planning tasks,and adapting to new information. For instance,bilingual children have been shown to outperform monolingual (单语的) children in tasks requiring attention control. A study from 2019 further clarified these effects in adults. While confirming that a moderate amount of language learning in adults does not boost core executive functions,it delays the onset of age-related mental deterioration (恶化).
But not all language learners benefit equally. The greatest benefits appear among those who achieve full fluency in a second language— especially those who use both languages regularly,almost every day. Casual language study,such as taking a college course,does not offer the same advantages as deep,long-term use. Frequent switching between languages within a single day or conversation seems to be especially helpful. Interpreters and translators,for example,often show stronger cognitive (认知的) control and mental flexibility.
Still,many factors complicate the research. Bilingual individuals often differ from monolinguals in education,socioeconomic status,and cultural exposure. For instance,a child growing up abroad with diplomat parents may enjoy many advantages unrelated to language. On the other hand,studies in poorer regions suggest that multilingualism can provide significant cognitive benefits where educational resources are limited.
Age also matters. The brain benefits of bilingualism are most prominent in young children and older adults. Young bilingual children often show early cognitive advantages,though monolingual peers may catch up later in life. For seniors,speaking multiple languages may help protect cognitive health — similar to how layering slices of Swiss cheese can cover more holes.
Beyond potential cognitive benefits,learning a language offers a more certain superpower:the ability to communicate with more people and understand other cultures. Even if you didn't grow up bilingual,that alone is an excellent reason to start learning.
32.What have researchers found about multilingualism?______
A. It prevents mental issue. B. It slows cognitive decline.
C. It boosts short-term memory. D. It replaces executive function.
33.Who likely gains the most cognitive benefits from bilingualism?______
A. Casual learners. B. Monolingual seniors.
C. College course takers. D. Daily language switchers.
34.What does the underlined word "prominent" in paragraph 4 probably mean?______
A. Limited. B. Overstated. C. Distinct. D. Immediate.
35.What is the author's attitude towards multilingualism?______
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Sympathetic. D. Cautious.
第二节 七选五 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项How to build a healthy self-image
Self-image is important because how we think about ourselves affects how we feel about ourselves and how we interact with the world around us.(36)______ Here are some ways you can build a healthy self-image.
Praise others sincerely. Did you notice something good in another person?Praise it.The more you're able to celebrate the positive experience of others,the more secure you'll feel with yourself.(37)______ This practice of praising others can also help fight against the feelings of low self-worth.
Experience and express gratitude. Practicing gratitude is another way to fight the unkind inner voice that may shape your self-image. Try starting a gratitude journal —this will encourage you to lay out the good things you're thankful for.As you're writing a journal,try to notice what you're grateful for and what role you play in those things.(38)______
(39)______ We'll grow and change in our lives as time goes by.But if you put in effort,that growth can happen faster and more effectively. Meanwhile,a big part of growth is being patient with yourself. For example,if you start a meditation (冥想),don't expect to sit for half an hour right away. With more practice,meditating for 10 or 20 minutes daily could be your new routine.
Take social media breaks. While it's a big part of our lives,social media can be a huge contributing factor to our self-image. On social media,people tend to show themselves in their best states and not their unfavorable ones.(40)______ That's why it's important to take breaks from the digital world.
It's a continual process to develop a healthy self-image,but through meaningful practices,you can find a better self.
A. Set strict goals for self-growth.
B. Take action for self-growth with patience.
C. These actions contribute to a positive self-view.
D. Self-image is the personal view that we have of ourselves.
E. So,we will look down on ourselves if we're looking at it too much.
F.A healthy self-image can improve our physical and mental well-being.
G. By shining a light of positivity on others,it often reflects back onto you.

The next morning,we(51) the model to the fair.It wasn't perfect,the cracks were still(52).When the judge,Mr.Davis,came to my table,I felt nervous. I explained my original idea,then pointed to the repairs."Last night,it was(53)."I said."But it taught me that sustainable energy isn't just about new technology.It's also about not giving up on what we already have"
Mr.Davis nodded slowly,a thoughtful look on his face. He didn't say much,just asked a few questions before moving on. I felt a pang(一阵) of(54).Maybe my patched-up project was too simple.
Later,during the award ceremony,I was shocked to hear my name called for the" Most Creative Concept" award.Mr.Dais shook my hand and said,"You showed real-world problem- solving. That's the heart of science."Looking at my brother in the crowd,his face beaming with(55),I knew the broken model had taught us both something more valuable than winning.

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。
My father and I disagreed about my curfew (晚间在家的时间).He would say I had to be in by 9:30 on weekdays,and 11:00 on weekends,and there was no exception. One day,I took courage to first show my opinion on my curfew. I told him it made me feel like a junior high school kid. He explained that though a curfew might sound like a restriction,it was really about people looking out for one another.
The very next Friday after that exchange,my dad and I had tickets to see our own town's professional football game. On that day he was driving his car to a nearby city to meet some major clients and told me that his getting home and our leaving for the game would be tight.
To make sure we could move off the moment he came back,I got everything prepared. When half an hour had passed from the time when he said he would be home,I understood that he was a little late. But then,nearly a whole hour passed. I was getting upset. We were going to miss the kick-off! And why hadn't he phoned me and let me know he was going to be really late?As I anxiously stepped the floor,another half hour passed. That was when I got really angry. How thoughtless my father was! We were going to miss the whole game! However,when another half an hour passed,my anger turned to fear. What if something terrible had happened to my dad,like he had a sudden heart attack or was caught in an accident,or something else?I began to get really worried,feeling like sitting on pins and needles.I had already called his cell phone about ten times,but there was no answer.

I was filled with extreme anxieties,thinking the worst had happened.Suddenly,the phone rang.I rushed to the phone and picked the receiver up.It was my dad.From the other end of the phone came my father's voice.He said breathlessly,"Son,I am so sorry about the football game,but...there was a terrible accident...on the freeway coming home,and I stopped to help the injured and ended up going to the hospital.I left my phone in the car,so I couldn't call you until now."
The heavy stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.I was so relieved to hear from my father.Having learnt that he was safe.I burst into tears.It was at that moment that I had a full understanding of the importance of a curfew.Since then,I have been insisting on checking in!For me,it's about knowing that someone I love is safe.It is also one more proof of my father 's loving me as much as he does.
