Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).
Like most wheelchair-users, Cambry has always been restricted to the pavement for most of her adult life. Aside from that, using a wheelchair across long distances makes her shoulders ache. Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, which would make it possible.
Zack began by combining two electric bikes and installing a seat in the centre. It worked! Cambry experienced a whole new level of freedom using her new “ride”, and she couldn’t be more grateful to Zack for coming up with it. Fast forward to a year later, Cambry and Zack tied the knot. They also began mass-production of the special wheelchair. Throughout that time, they improved the original design to make it a more reliable off-roader.
While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car. Cambry and Zack wanted to build something quick, light, super long-range, and affordable at the same time. However, coming up with that kind of electric off-roader wasn’t easy.
The toughest challenge when developing the special wheelchair is the price. “We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone. Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possibly took quite a bit of time,” said Zack. “But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction (少量) of the cost of other ‘off-road wheelchairs’ currently on the market.” Another great thing about the vehicle is that it’s silent. Its rider will have no difficulty chatting with their companion while using it. Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.
24. What was Zack’s motivation to invent a fully electric wheelchair
A. The market demands. B. His interest in invention.
C. His love for his girlfriend. D. The request of his girlfriend.
25. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Walking on the pavement with ease.
B. The special wheelchair made by Zack.
C. The ability to explore more places conveniently.
D. Cambry’s desire to reduce the pain of her shoulders.
26. What does Zack think of the existing wheelchairs in the market
A. They’re light. B. They’re expensive.
C. They’re ugly. D. They’re small.
27. What can we learn about Zack from the last paragraph
A. He has an ambition to introduce the wheelchair to others.
B. He is satisfied with people’s reaction to the wheelchair.
C. He couldn’t afford the components of the wheelchair.
D. He spent many years designing the wheelchair.
C
A standard school day for the average American youth takes place indoors. But for some young students who attend forest school, most of their preschool or kindergarten education occurs outdoors in forests, parks, or other wild sites. At these schools, educators allow their students’ curiosity to guide the curriculum (全部课程) and rely on nature to instill environmental values.
Forest schools vary in the amount of time children spend outdoors, what they study, and how they’re assessed, but all forest schools put nature first. They have the same standards for child development as traditional schools do, but their methods are rooted in exploring and conserving the natural world.
Khavin Debbs, Executive Director at Tiny Trees Preschool in Seattle. Washington, says one of the benefits of a forest school is how it can adapt to students’ unique needs. High-energy students can run and climb. Shy students can sit alone to observe an earthworm with a magnifying glass. At Tiny Trees, in addition to learning with art materials, books, and toys, students engage in a wide range of play-based learning, including going on hikes, observing wildlife, and identifying plants and animal tracks. They might cook over a camp stove, or harvest berries to make jam. The students’ hands-on activities help them grasp scientific concepts that might otherwise seem abstract. “They’ve seen a tree’s leaves turn different colors in fall, and then seen that same tree bloom again in spring. All those things really do help them understand.” said Debbs.
The notion of children spending time outdoors to learn and play is nothing new. The modern-day forest school concept originated in Denmark in the 1950s, and then spread through Europe and abroad. In the United States, forest schools are currently on the rise. A national survey done in 2017 found 250 forest schools operating in 43 states—100 more than the year before, with 80 percent of them maintaining waiting lists.
But even though they’re increasing in popularity, forest schools aren’t yet reflective of the cultural, linguistic, or cognitive diversity of American youth. Thus, schools that want to be more inclusive must be purposeful in increasing their influence and making their programs more accessible.
28. What does the underlined word “instill” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Represent. B. Design. C. Maintain. D. Develop.
29. What is the key feature of forest schools
A. The free optional curriculum. B. The nature-centred philosophy.
C. The novel standard for students. D. The evaluation of teachers’ values.
30. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 3
A. To highlight advantages of forest schools.
B. To show what teachers had for students.
C. To compare the differences in students’ grades.
D. To draw a conclusion from the teachers’ skills.
31. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. A limitation period of forest schools.
B. A solution to increasing popularity.
C. A wish to participate in a forest school.
D. A suggestion for the further development of forest schools.
D
As the electric vehicle (EV) increases, drivers may start to find queues adding to their more time at charging stations. One potential solution to this is to swap out the run-down battery pack for a new one, and a company has just revealed that it’s managed to do so in just five minutes.
Since the company launched its first-generation battery swap station back in 2021, the company reports that stations have been built across the San Francisco Bay Area to support fleet (车队) partners in testing the quick-swap solution. The company has also been in consultation with a delivery services to get a better understanding of their needs.
“When working with these fleets, we continuously heard that despite efforts to electrify fleets, drivers could spend up to 10-12 hours at a charging station.” said the company in a blog post. “There is a lack of reliable EV charging for city residents who don’t have access to garages and the option of overnight charging, and our new solution seeks to fix that.”
The latest station is designed to support EVs of all sizes—from small passenger cars to mid-sized delivery vans. EVs fitted with modular batteries could roll onto the platform and have its spent modules automatically removed and replaced with fully charged ones within 10 minutes. The removed battery units are then recharged, ready for the next customer.
The shoebox-sized battery modules have been developed to improve their safety, and can be fit for any modern EV. The new stations have been redesigned for easier building at a site in just three days, and have also been made more durable to suit different local conditions as the company expands. They can also be remotely monitored 24 hours for enhanced safety and customer support.
The company is now calling for more EV manufacturers, fleet operators and municipalities to join them in the quest to electrify.
32. What is the problem that EV drivers are worried about
A. Driving EVs takes up their too much time.
B. They have to wait long to charge their EVs.
C. They have to buy new batteries to replace the old ones.
D. EVs are in bad quality despite increasing development.
33. Why does the company work with partners
A. To build charging stations.
B. To deliver the last-mile goods.
C. To obtain some related information.
D. To give a helping hand in fixing vehicles.
34. What is the feature of modular batteries
A. Time-saving and safe. B. Universal and pricey.
C. Heavy and complicated. D. Convenient and durable.
35. Which can be the best title for the text
A. A Company Is Developing a New and Safe EV
B. A Company Strengthens the Cooperation with Its Partners
C. A Company Has Expanded Its Charging Stations Across the World
D. A Company Makes the Replacement of EV Batteries Safe and Fast

3. Pinch their nose and place your mouth tightly over their mouth and administer two short breaths
Start again until the patient starts breathing.
39 Emergency department staff sometimes see significant head injuries and spinal cord injuries that come from careless diving. This happens more among teenagers and young adults. Prevent this by making sure people are only using existing diving boards that are designed to dive into deep water.
Another risk is a condition called “dry drowning”. This happens after a near-drowning event in which water gets into someone’s lungs. 40 . Call 120 or go to the emergency department right away. This is very rare, but can be fatal (致命的).
A. Drowning can happen in an instant
B. Adults should watch over the safety
C. Drowning isn’t the only danger with pools
D. Pool owners should be sure to have a fence around their pool
E. Call for help and start administering CPR as quickly as possible
F. A drowning person having something to grab can get out of the pool quickly
G. That means the airway is closed off and can’t provide someone with enough oxygen

I didn’t know the lady, but I saw her often around town with her two small children. She appeared to be shy, always looking down, trying not to make eye contact. She often wore the same clothes, and so did her children. I felt her discomfort when I saw her at the supermarket checkout. She reminded me of myself years ago. We had to go through a tough time.
Back then, I couldn’t afford a new winter coat for my daughter, and I didn’t know what I was going to do. Luckily, my three younger children could wear hand-me-downs. One night, I said to myself in my heart that I wished someone to offer me help. I did it for the first time since my husband’s unemployment.
The next morning, a neighbour came into the place where I worked. “I know you must feel unbelievable, This morning, I had an overwhelming (无法抗拒的) feeling that you needed this,” she whispered. She insisted on giving me twenty dollars. My eyes started to tear as she continued, “I also have a box of clothes in my car that I was going to donate. Please take what you need.” It was really a shock of getting her help. Was this the response to my word the night before
Going through the large box of clothes, I found several winter items for my children, including a dark purple jacket that looked like it would fit my daughter. Although grateful, I felt embarrassed. The woman must have sensed my discomfort. She raised my chin so I could look at her. “We all need help at one time or another, “she said. “One day, you’ll be the one helping someone in need.”
I thanked her and promised I would always try to pay it forward.

M: That’s a shame. So what was the most exciting part of the trip
W: Probably exploring the old caves. I’d never done it before, and thought it was great.

M: Hello, everybody. I’m Reid. Today I will discuss the effect of sleep on school students. Many teenagers are getting little sleep and there are concerns that this could have a serious long-term effect on their body health and spirits, but we aren’t sure about that now. However, one study has clearly shown that high school students getting low grades also get on average one hour less sleep than students getting high grades. Then why aren’t teenagers getting enough sleep I think they spend too much time on TV and computer games. So how can teenagers fall asleep easier Well, don’t have any soft drinks or any drink that contain chocolate before sleeping. Reading a book or listening to a story, rather than music, should help your brain relax.
It would be better for schools to stay open longer so that pupils can do homework before they get home. Another thing that some schools have tried successfully is to begin the school day half an hour later and end the school day half an hour later, and I really recommend that.

第一节：
参考范文：
A Debate on Shopping Online
Last Friday, our English class held a debate on Shopping Online. Here are the main points.
The affirmatives argued that online shopping has advantages like saving time and money, as well as a wide variety of products available. It is also convenient, allowing people to shop anytime and having items delivered to their doorstep.
The negatives, however, believed that online shopping poses risks, such as fraud and a lack of security. They also mentioned the problem of impulse buying and the inability to physically check products before purchasing.
In my view, both sides have valid points. Online shopping offers convenience, but precautions must be taken to protect against fraud.
第二节：
参考范文：
Looking at the lady at the supermarket checkout, I knew perhaps it was the proper time. I went back home and packed some clothes in a bag with other donations and headed to the supermarket. Standing in the supermarket checkout and looking at the woman who was so similar to my former self, I felt compelled to say, “Hi.” She smiled. Without hesitation, I repeated words similar to what the kind neighbour had said to me many years ago at my workplace. “I have a bag of clothes in my car that I was going to donate. Would you like to take a look ”
To my surprise, she said, “Yes.” Together, we walked to my car. She didn’t appear as embarrassed as I had been worried about. I felt a bit relieved. When we reached the car, she went through the clothes and picked up a purple coat with three brightly painted lemons. “My daughter will love this coat. Thank you.” She smiled as her eyes lit up. My heart was full as I thought about what a blessing that coat had been. And how it would make another little girl happy.
