When my wife and I didn’t work long, our budget was tight. We tried to save as much money as possible so we could afford overspend occasionally. At the same time, we benefited a lot from the kindness of local store owners.
When my wife was expecting our child, she developed a craving for a local Chinese restaurant’s version of tai dop voy, a mixture of meat, shrimp and vegetables. Even though they rarely saw us, the owners remembered us. One evening, I ordered tai dop voy. They enthusiastically treated me and said, “There is some fried rice for your wife. Have a healthy baby.” The bag was obviously heavier than normal. When I got home, there was not only fried rice but also two orders of tai dop voy.
That was many years ago. But those small kindnesses from locals made a difference. Customers were seen as more than a source of profit. We were members of the community that local businesses served.
The generosity I experienced years ago hasn’t disappeared. I witnessed it recently at my local farmers’ market. A family was debating whether to add another vegetable to the order. The farmer served them and said, “Sorry, I forgot. I have so many vegetables this year. Buy two, and you’ll get another for free. Pick out any one you like.” I thought the farmer was being morally flexible: no prices on the produce, but everything is fairly priced. Fairness is in the sense that care and kindness are parts of the merchant-client relationship.
The kindness of merchants is a sign of something deeper: We are all making our shared way together. For my part, I will continue to support farmers’ markets and family-run restaurants. I am happy to make a fair offer.
24. What does the underlined word “craving” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Desire. B. Habit. C. Proposal. D. Technique.
25. Why does the author mention the experience of buying tai dop voy
A. To praise Chinese meals. B. To prove love for his wife.
C. To show human goodness. D. To express his thanks to the owners.
26. What is the author’s attitude to the farmer in paragraph 4
A. Appreciative. B. Ambiguous. C. Critical. D. Cautious.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Tight budget, happy life B. Low prices, fair business
C. Tasty tai dop voy, deep love D. Small businesses, big kindnesses
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者和妻子的困难时期，当地商店对他们的帮助。他们的善意和慷慨让作者明白了商家并不一定都是以营利为目的。
【24题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词句中“When my wife was expecting our child…”（当我妻子怀上孩子的时候……）以及下文“They enthusiastically treated me and said, “There is some fried rice for your wife. Have a healthy baby.””（他们热情地招待我，说：“这是给你太太的炒饭。生个健康的宝宝。”）可知，作者妻子怀上孩子的时候，她特别想吃当地一家中餐馆的大杂烩，那是一种肉、虾和蔬菜的混合物。故可猜测划线单词craving为“渴望”的意思，结合选项A项Desire“渴望”意思一致。故选A项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“At the same time, we benefited a lot from the kindness of local store owners.”（同时，我们也从当地店主的善良中受益良多。）以及第二段中“They enthusiastically treated me and said, “There is some fried rice for your wife. Have a healthy baby.” The bag was obviously heavier than normal. When I got home, there was not only fried rice but also two orders of tai dop voy.”（他们热情地招待我，说：“这是给你太太的炒饭。生个健康的宝宝。”这个包明显比平时重。当我回到家时，不仅有炒饭，还有两份大杂烩。）可推知，作者提到了购买大杂烩的经历是为了展现人性的善良。故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The generosity I experienced years ago hasn’t disappeared. I witnessed it recently at my local farmers’ market. A family was debating whether to add another vegetable to the order. The farmer served them and said, “Sorry, I forgot. I have so many vegetables this year. Buy two, and you’ll get another for free. Pick out any one you like.””（我多年前感受到的慷慨并没有消失。我最近在当地的农贸市场亲眼目睹了这一切。一家人正在争论要不要再加一种蔬菜。农夫招待他们说：“对不起，我忘了。今年我有很多蔬菜。买两份送一份。随便挑一个你喜欢的。”）可知，作者认为农夫的行为是慷慨的。由此推知，作者对农民的态度是赞赏的。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据最后一段“The kindness of merchants is a sign of something deeper: We are all making our shared way together. For my part, I will continue to support farmers’ markets and family-run restaurants. I am happy to make a fair offer.”（商人们的善意表明了更深层次的东西：我们都在共同前行。就我而言，我将继续支持农贸市场和家庭经营的餐馆。我很乐意提供一个公平的条件）可知，主要讲述作者和妻子的困难时期，当地商店对他们的帮助。他们的善意和慷慨让作者明白了商家并不一定都是以营利为目的。故文章最好的标题是“小生意，大善举”。故选D项。
C
Dandelion (蒲公英) seeds are some of the best flyers in nature, catching the wind and spreading as far as 100 kilometers. Each dandelion seed is tied by a thin tube to around 100 hairs, which form the parachute-like (类似降落伞的) structure. When seeds break free from the flower head, these hairs catch the wind and carry their seeds. This hairy parachute closes when the air is humid (潮湿的), which often means the wind is weak. In drier and windier conditions, dandelions widen their parachutes to better catch the wind so the seeds can fly freely.
However, in the past, nobody knew how they sense and respond to their environment so effectively.
Now researchers have uncovered the secret “thinking” behind dandelions’ spreading seeds. Their work, published in Nature Communications, found the seed-carrying parachutes open and close using something like actuators — devices that change signals into movement — without using active input of energy. The center of the parachutes senses the humidity of their immediate environment by absorbing water molecules (分子) from the air. Responding to these humidity signals, they either open their parachutes and fly away, or close their parachutes and stay put.
Study author Dr. Naomi Nakayama of the Department of Bioengineering who led the work said that their findings reveal how the dandelion ensures the survival of its species by making perhaps the most important decision in a plant’s life — to stay or go to seek a better habitat.
“Understanding how dandelions work is fascinating because the dandelion is the foundation of ecosystems. It feeds insects and birds,” Nakayama says. “So, the environmental sensitivity of their flight is an important topic for us to understand how nature will change in future climates.”
28. What can be learned from paragraph 1
A. Dandelion seeds have a tube-like design.
B. A dandelion flower consists of 100 hairs.
C. Dandelion seeds begin to grow in dry weather.
D. The dandelion parachute closes on wet mornings.
29. What do researchers find about the dandelion
A. Its hairs catch the wind easily.
B. Its actuator needs extra energy to function.
C. The middle of its parachute measures humidity.
D. The shape of its actuator was changed by the wind.
30. Why do they study how dandelions work according to Nakayama
A. To feed more insects and birds. B. To better learn about climate change.
C. To change dandelions’ living environment. D. To further explain their role in ecosystems.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Why dandelion seeds “prefer” the wind.
B. How dandelions “tell” us their destinations.
C. How dandelions “decide” to spread their seeds.
D. Why dandelion seeds “create” parachute-like structures.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蒲公英种子播散的机制：降落伞中心感知湿度，并根据信号打开或关闭降落伞来留在原地或飞到适合生存的地方，这对了解未来气候如何影响生态系统非常重要。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“This hairy parachute closes when the air is humid (潮湿的), which often means the wind is weak. (这种毛茸茸的降落伞在空气潮湿时关闭，这通常意味着风很弱。)”可知，早晨空气潮湿，因此，蒲公英降落伞会关闭。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段倒数第二句“The center of the parachutes senses the humidity of their immediate environment by absorbing water molecules (分子) from the air. (降落伞的中心通过吸收空气中的水分子来感知周围环境的湿度。)”可知，研究人员发现降落伞的中间部分用来测量湿度。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段末句“Nakayama says “So, the environmental sensitivity of their flight is an important topic for us to understand how nature will change in future climates.”(Nakayama说：“所以，它们飞行的环境敏感性是我们了解自然在未来气候中如何变化的一个重要话题。”)”可知，研究人员研究蒲公英的工作原理是为了更好地了解气候变化。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“Now researchers have uncovered the secret “thinking” behind dandelions’ spreading seeds. (现在，研究人员发现了蒲公英传播种子背后的“思考”秘密。)”以及倒数第二句“The center of the parachutes senses the humidity of their immediate environment by absorbing water molecules (分子) from the air. (降落伞的中心通过吸收空气中的水分子来感知周围环境的湿度。)”可知，本文主要介绍了蒲公英的工作原理：通过降落伞中心感知湿度来决定打开或关闭降落伞，也即是，蒲公英是如何“决定”散播种子的。故选C。
D
“The new normal” is one of those phrases that can accurately apply to a wide variety of life situations, including a medical diagnosis, death or change in life and work. The phrase implies both the newness of each of those circumstances, as well as the necessity that they will need to be normalized, integrated into the reality of our daily lives. Once we’ve settled into new routines and emotional patterns, our “normal” won’t be quite so new anymore, will it The question is a subject of debate.
There is a large middle ground between the event that increases the need for “the new normal” and its final acceptance. Some people think it can’t handle tragedies. But the phrase keeps coming up in conversation, and it has made me realize that“normal”is the last word I would use to describe the fragile place I currently occupy. I find myself there as I mourn the loss of my grandfather, who died in September. For example, the new normal is to have Thanksgiving without Grandfather, then to remember him on what would have been his 75th birthday just a few days later. In other words, during this year of firsts, the new normal is a time of transition, not of arrival.
It strikes me that this is something to be celebrated, not worried over. Part of living positively is meeting ourselves wherever we are. And as I continue to navigate this in-between time, this period of slowly accepting my father’s absence from the Earth, I recognize that each step along the way is a worthwhile part of a healthy grieving process.
The same idea would apply to more positive changes, like a new home or job, as well as the challenges of the end of a relationship or a difficult medical reality. The new normal isn’t something any of us step into all at once. It’s something we become, move toward, and, eventually, accept. Let’s not be in a rush to reach that destination. The journey has much to teach us.
32. Which occasion should “the new normal” be applied to
A. A person’s illness outbreak. B. A person’s routine working.
C. A person’s constantly normal life. D. A person’s annual birthday celebration.
33. What does the author discuss about the new normal in paragraph 2
A. The fear of it. B. The attitude to it.
C. The reason for accepting it. D. The difficulty in describing it.
34. What has the author learned to do from Thanksgiving without Grandfather
A. Forget the dead. B. Live optimistically.
C. Treasure the process over the result. D. Mourn over a family member’s absence.
35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text
A. To tell us to value our past challenges. B. To tell us some meaningful life stories.
C. To teach us how to handle our tragedies. D. To teach us how to cope with life changes.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议问。主要介绍了“新常态”这个名词的定义和概念，以及作者对“新常态”的态度和感悟。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“The new normal” is one of those phrases that can accurately apply to a wide variety of life situations, including a medical diagnosis, death or change in life and work. The phrase implies both the newness of each of those circumstances, as well as the necessity that they will need to be normalized, integrated into the reality of our daily lives.”（“新常态”是那些可以准确应用于各种生活情况的短语之一，包括医疗诊断、死亡或生活和工作中的变化。这句话既意味着这些情况的新颖性，也意味着它们需要正常化，融入我们日常生活的现实。）可推知，“新常态”可以适用于一个人的疾病爆发这种场合。故选A项。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“There is a large middle ground between the event that increases the need for “the new normal” and its final acceptance. Some people think it can’t handle tragedies. But the phrase keeps coming up in conversation, and it has made me realize that “normal” is the last word I would use to describe the fragile place I currently occupy. I find myself there as I mourn the loss of my grandfather, who died in September.”（这一事件增加了人们对“新常态”的需求，但最终人们还是接受了它，在这两者之间有一个很大的中间地带。有些人认为它无法处理悲剧。但这个短语在谈话中不断出现，它让我意识到，“正常”是我最不愿意用的词，来形容我目前所处的脆弱境地）可知，关于新常态，作者在第二段讨论了对它的态度。故选B项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“For example, the new normal is to have Thanksgiving without Grandfather, then to remember him on what would have been his 75th birthday just a few days later. In other words, during this year of firsts, the new normal is a time of transition, not of arrival.”（例如，新的常态是在没有祖父的情况下过感恩节，然后在几天后的他75岁生日那天纪念他。换句话说，在今年的几个第一中，新常态是一个过渡时期，而不是到来的时期）以及第三段中“It strikes me that this is something to be celebrated, not worried over. Part of living positively is meeting ourselves wherever we are.”（我突然意识到，这是一件值得庆祝的事情，而不是担心的事情。无论身在何处，积极生活的一部分就是面对自己。）可知，作者从没有祖父的感恩节中学到了乐观地生活。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“The same idea would apply to more positive changes, like a new home or job, as well as the challenges of the end of a relationship or a difficult medical reality. The new normal isn’t something any of us step into all at once. It’s something we become, move toward, and, eventually, accept. Let’s not be in a rush to reach that destination. The journey has much to teach us.”（同样的想法也适用于更积极的变化，比如新家或新工作，以及一段关系结束的挑战或困难的医疗现实。新常态不是我们任何人都能一下子进入的。它是我们成为、走向并最终接受的东西。我们不要急于到达那个目的地。这段旅程教会了我们很多东西）可推知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是教会我们如何应对生活的变化。故选D项。

(音乐疗法是一种有时用来促进情绪健康、帮助患者应对压力和提高心理健康的干预措施)”可知，下文再次印证了音乐对心理影响强大，故C项“The psychological effects of music can be powerful (音乐的心理影响是强大的)”能承上启下，符合语境。故选C。
【37题详解】
由下文“Research suggests that background music improves mental performance. Playing more positive music leads to improvements in processing speed. So next time you are working on a task, turn on a little music in the background for a boost in your mental performance. (研究表明，背景音乐可以提高心理表现。播放更积极的音乐可以提高处理速度。所以，下次你在做一项任务时，在背景中播放一些音乐，以提高你的心理表现)”可知，本段主要叙述音乐可以提高心理表现，故B项“Music can improve mental performance (音乐可以改善心理表现)”与空格处后的内容相呼应，可以作为本段小标题。故选B。
【38题详解】
由上文“Music can be a helpful weight-loss tool. To lose weight, listen to soft music and dim the lights. According to one study, people eating at low-lit restaurants where soft music was played consumed less food. (音乐是一种有益的减肥工具。为了减肥，听轻柔的音乐，调暗灯光。根据一项研究，在灯光昏暗、播放柔和音乐的餐厅用餐的人消耗的食物更少)”可知，下面要说跟“音乐和灯光”有关的话题，故D项“Music and lighting help create a more relaxing setting (音乐和灯光有助于创造一个更轻松的环境)”能承接上文，符合语境，故选D。
39题详解】
由上文“Music can help you sleep better (音乐可以帮助你睡得更好)”和下文“While there are many approaches to treating this problem research has demonstrated that listening to relaxing classical music can be a safe, effective, and affordable therapy. (虽然有很多方法可以治疗这个问题，但研究表明，听一些轻松的古典音乐是一种安全、有效、经济的疗法)”可知，空处应陈述失眠问题，一次引出下文解提出决该问题的方法。故G项“Sleeplessness is a problem that affects people of different age groups (失眠是一个影响不同年龄组的人的问题)”能承上启下，符合题意。空后的“this problem”指代G描述的问题。故选G。
【40题详解】
空处位于段末，应承接上文。由上文“Research has shown that music can be very helpful in the management of pain. One study of fibromyalgia (纤维性肌痛) patients found that those who listened to music for one hour a day experienced a significant reduction in pain. (研究表明，音乐对治疗疼痛有很大帮助。一项针对纤维肌痛患者的研究发现，那些每天听一小时音乐的人疼痛明显减轻)”可知，音乐可以帮助病人减轻疼痛，F项“Such a result suggests music therapy can help treat some diseases (这样的结果表明音乐疗法可以帮助治疗一些疾病)”符合语境。故选F。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了中国四大发明之一的指南针，介绍了它的发展历史。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：它是一种简单的用于确定与地球磁场方向相关的航海工具。instrument是可数名词，此处表示泛指，且simple是以辅音音素开头的单词，因此用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意：它是一种简单的用于确定与地球磁场方向相关的航海工具。magnetic pole意为“磁极”，为可数名词，根据句意可知，磁极不止一个，应用名词复数形式，作to的宾语。故填poles。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意：最早的指南针最初出现在战国时期。分析句子结构可知，本空填副词originally“起初”，修饰动词came out，作状语。故填originally。
【59题详解】
考查介词。句意：它是由磁石制成的，伴有汤匙形状。结合句意可知，本空填介词with，表示“伴随”。故填with。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，因为天然磁石很难找到，它们很容易失去磁性，而且它的重量不方便携带，所以它没有被广泛使用。动词take意为“携带”。空前it为形式主语，故用动词不定式作真正的主语。故填to take。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：直到宋代，中国人制作了比思南更方便的指南鱼。分析句子结构可知，本空引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词South-pointing Fish，且从句中缺少主语，故填关系代词which，引导定语从句。故填which。
【62题详解】
考查时态。句意：为了长期改进，人们通过在天然磁石上摩擦，制造了具有磁性的钢针。结合句意和后文的could可知，事情发生在过去，故句子用一般过去时，故填make“制造”的过去式made，作谓语。故填made。
【63题详解】
考查语态。句意：因此，带有磁性的指针就可以被当作指南针。regard sth. as“把……看作”，为固定短语。结合句意可知，主语the needle withmagnetism与regard之间是被动关系，因此用被动语态，句中有情态动词could，因此用“情态动词+be+过去分词”，故填be regarded。
【64题详解】
考查名词所有格。句意：指南针在人们的日常生活中，军事和制造业中使用，特别是在导航中。结合句意可知，本空填用名词所有格people’s“人们的”，修饰名词life。故填people’s。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：第一个被记录使用指南针作为导航辅助的人是郑和，他进行了七次海上航行。分析句子结构可知，本句系动词为was，故本空为非谓语，且person与record为被动关系，故此处用动词过去分词作后置定语，修饰名词person。故填recorded。

67. 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。
Many years ago, a crocodile(鳄鱼)lived in a pool. He spent most of his time in the shady parts of the green pool. When he was hungry, he hid into the water towards the watering hole where all the animals gathered to drink the clear water on hot days. The crocodile was very cunning(狡猾的)and kept only his eyes above the water as he moved towards the other animals, Then his big jaws closed in on some unlucky animals that didn’t see him coming. They became his delicious dinner at last.
The crocodile said to himself, “I’m so strong that no one can get away from me. “ All of the animals were afraid of the crocodile except a butterfly(蝴蝶).
One day, the butterfly noticed the crocadile moving closer to the other animals in the pool. She flew around the crocodile’s eyes to get his attention. She said, “You might be strong, but I bet you won’t catch anything today. “ She flew in circles around the crocodile’s face.
The crocodile rose up out of the water a bit so he could talk to the butterfly. He said, “Of course I will. I’m the strongest animal in the pool. I can catch any animal I want. “ The butterfly flew past the crosodile’s nose and said, “I don’t think so. “ She flew very close to the crocodile’s car and teased(戏弄) him with her wings.
“Stop that!” The crocodile couldn’t keep his temper and shouted. Not far away, two birds looked up from the watering hole. They saw the danger and flew to the treetops just in case. At the same time, the rabbits and frogs at the watering hole looked up as well and saw the crocodile. In a flash, they all ran away and hid in the forest.
The butterfly danced in the air just in front of the croondile’s nose. “Being strong isn’t everything, you know.” Then she landed slowly on the tip of the crocodile’s nose. She teased his leathery skin with her wings.
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。
The crocodile didn’t like being teased.

Finally, the crocodile felt tired and stopped biting the butterfly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The crocodile didn’t like being teased. He shouted, “How would you feel if I catch you ” The crocodile opened his powerful jaws wide and bit in the air. He jumped hard, making water splash in all directions, when he tried to bite the butterfly. However, it was in vain. The butterfly held fast to his nose no matter how much power the crocodile used to catch her. It was obvious that she was not hurt a bit at all.
Finally, the crocodile felt tired and stopped biting the butterfly. He was annoyed but hadn’t any good idea. The butterfly said, “You can’t catch me because you can’t bite your own nose off, ” The crocodile made so much noise that his “dinner” had run away. Then the butterfly flew away, laughing happily. Meanwhile, the angry crocodile had to swim back into the water, hungry and unhappy. He had been teased by such a small creature. The story shows that you shouldn’t be too proud of yourself because everyone has his own disadvantage.

When my wife and I didn’t work long, our budget was tight. We tried to save as much money as possible so we could afford overspend occasionally. At the same time, we benefited a lot from the kindness of local store owners.
When my wife was expecting our child, she developed a craving for a local Chinese restaurant’s version of tai dop voy, a mixture of meat, shrimp and vegetables. Even though they rarely saw us, the owners remembered us. One evening, I ordered tai dop voy. They enthusiastically treated me and said, “There is some fried rice for your wife. Have a healthy baby.” The bag was obviously heavier than normal. When I got home, there was not only fried rice but also two orders of tai dop voy.
That was many years ago. But those small kindnesses from locals made a difference. Customers were seen as more than a source of profit. We were members of the community that local businesses served.
The generosity I experienced years ago hasn’t disappeared. I witnessed it recently at my local farmers’ market. A family was debating whether to add another vegetable to the order. The farmer served them and said, “Sorry, I forgot. I have so many vegetables this year. Buy two, and you’ll get another for free. Pick out any one you like.” I thought the farmer was being morally flexible: no prices on the produce, but everything is fairly priced. Fairness is in the sense that care and kindness are parts of the merchant-client relationship.
The kindness of merchants is a sign of something deeper: We are all making our shared way together. For my part, I will continue to support farmers’ markets and family-run restaurants. I am happy to make a fair offer.
24. What does the underlined word “craving” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Desire. B. Habit. C. Proposal. D. Technique.
25. Why does the author mention the experience of buying tai dop voy
A. To praise Chinese meals. B. To prove love for his wife.
C. To show human goodness. D. To express his thanks to the owners.
26. What is the author’s attitude to the farmer in paragraph 4
A. Appreciative. B. Ambiguous. C. Critical. D. Cautious.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Tight budget, happy life B. Low prices, fair business
C. Tasty tai dop voy, deep love D. Small businesses, big kindnesses

Dandelion (蒲公英) seeds are some of the best flyers in nature, catching the wind and spreading as far as 100 kilometers. Each dandelion seed is tied by a thin tube to around 100 hairs, which form the parachute-like (类似降落伞的) structure. When seeds break free from the flower head, these hairs catch the wind and carry their seeds. This hairy parachute closes when the air is humid (潮湿的), which often means the wind is weak. In drier and windier conditions, dandelions widen their parachutes to better catch the wind so the seeds can fly freely.
However, in the past, nobody knew how they sense and respond to their environment so effectively.
Now researchers have uncovered the secret “thinking” behind dandelions’ spreading seeds. Their work, published in Nature Communications, found the seed-carrying parachutes open and close using something like actuators — devices that change signals into movement — without using active input of energy. The center of the parachutes senses the humidity of their immediate environment by absorbing water molecules (分子) from the air. Responding to these humidity signals, they either open their parachutes and fly away, or close their parachutes and stay put.
Study author Dr. Naomi Nakayama of the Department of Bioengineering who led the work said that their findings reveal how the dandelion ensures the survival of its species by making perhaps the most important decision in a plant’s life — to stay or go to seek a better habitat.
“Understanding how dandelions work is fascinating because the dandelion is the foundation of ecosystems. It feeds insects and birds,” Nakayama says. “So, the environmental sensitivity of their flight is an important topic for us to understand how nature will change in future climates.”
28. What can be learned from paragraph 1
A. Dandelion seeds have a tube-like design.
B. A dandelion flower consists of 100 hairs.
C. Dandelion seeds begin to grow in dry weather.
D. The dandelion parachute closes on wet mornings.
29. What do researchers find about the dandelion
A. Its hairs catch the wind easily.
B. Its actuator needs extra energy to function.
C. The middle of its parachute measures humidity.
D. The shape of its actuator was changed by the wind.
30 Why do they study how dandelions work according to Nakayama
A. To feed more insects and birds. B. To better learn about climate change.
C. To change dandelions’ living environment. D. To further explain their role in ecosystems.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Why dandelion seeds “prefer” the wind.
B. How dandelions “tell” us their destinations.
C. How dandelions “decide” to spread their seeds.
D. Why dandelion seeds “create” parachute-like structures.
D
“The new normal” is one of those phrases that can accurately apply to a wide variety of life situations, including a medical diagnosis, death or change in life and work. The phrase implies both the newness of each of those circumstances, as well as the necessity that they will need to be normalized, integrated into the reality of our daily lives. Once we’ve settled into new routines and emotional patterns, our “normal” won’t be quite so new anymore, will it The question is a subject of debate.
There is a large middle ground between the event that increases the need for “the new normal” and its final acceptance. Some people think it can’t handle tragedies. But the phrase keeps coming up in conversation, and it has made me realize that“normal”is the last word I would use to describe the fragile place I currently occupy. I find myself there as I mourn the loss of my grandfather, who died in September. For example, the new normal is to have Thanksgiving without Grandfather, then to remember him on what would have been his 75th birthday just a few days later. In other words, during this year of firsts, the new normal is a time of transition, not of arrival.
It strikes me that this is something to be celebrated, not worried over. Part of living positively is meeting ourselves wherever we are. And as I continue to navigate this in-between time, this period of slowly accepting my father’s absence from the Earth, I recognize that each step along the way is a worthwhile part of a healthy grieving process.
The same idea would apply to more positive changes, like a new home or job, as well as the challenges of the end of a relationship or a difficult medical reality. The new normal isn’t something any of us step into all at once. It’s something we become, move toward, and, eventually, accept. Let’s not be in a rush to reach that destination. The journey has much to teach us.
32. Which occasion should “the new normal” be applied to
A. A person’s illness outbreak. B. A person’s routine working.
C. A person’s constantly normal life. D. A person’s annual birthday celebration.
33. What does the author discuss about the new normal in paragraph 2
A. The fear of it. B. The attitude to it.
C. The reason for accepting it. D. The difficulty in describing it.
34. What has the author learned to do from Thanksgiving without Grandfather
A. Forget the dead. B. Live optimistically.
C. Treasure the process over the result. D. Mourn over a family member’s absence.
35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text
A. To tell us to value our past challenges. B. To tell us some meaningful life stories.
C. To teach us how to handle our tragedies. D. To teach us how to cope with life changes.

67. 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。
Many years ago, a crocodile(鳄鱼)lived in a pool. He spent most of his time in the shady parts of the green pool. When he was hungry, he hid into the water towards the watering hole where all the animals gathered to drink the clear water on hot days. The crocodile was very cunning(狡猾的)and kept only his eyes above the water as he moved towards the other animals, Then his big jaws closed in on some unlucky animals that didn’t see him coming. They became his delicious dinner at last.
The crocodile said to himself, “I’m so strong that no one can get away from me. “ All of the animals were afraid of the crocodile except a butterfly(蝴蝶).
One day, the butterfly noticed the crocadile moving closer to the other animals in the pool. She flew around the crocodile’s eyes to get his attention. She said, “You might be strong, but I bet you won’t catch anything today. “ She flew in circles around the crocodile’s face.
The crocodile rose up out of the water a bit so he could talk to the butterfly. He said, “Of course I will. I’m the strongest animal in the pool. I can catch any animal I want. “ The butterfly flew past the crosodile’s nose and said, “I don’t think so. “ She flew very close to the crocodile’s car and teased(戏弄) him with her wings.
“Stop that!” The crocodile couldn’t keep his temper and shouted. Not far away, two birds looked up from the watering hole. They saw the danger and flew to the treetops just in case. At the same time, the rabbits and frogs at the watering hole looked up as well and saw the crocodile. In a flash, they all ran away and hid in the forest.
The butterfly danced in the air just in front of the croondile’s nose. “Being strong isn’t everything, you know.” Then she landed slowly on the tip of the crocodile’s nose. She teased his leathery skin with her wings.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
