Our old, artificial Christmas tree was in rough shape by the time we retired it. At least a decade had passed since my wife and I bought the tree, a medium-size fake tree with built-in lights, at a Target in Brooklyn and carried it on the subway to our tiny apartment. Over the years, we dragged that tree from apartment, jammed it onto a moving truck to Los Angeles and later packed the weathered box onto another moving truck, this time to Chicago and our current home. By the end, layers of duct tape （强力胶布） held the box together, the wear and tear of a decade of delivering holiday cheer.
Our little tree looked run down, but it was the only tree our family ever knew. It stands proud and glowing in the background of photos of me and my pregnant wife during our last Christmas in Brooklyn without children. Our oldest was born a month later during a January snowstorm. The tree shows up again in the next year’s photos, this time surrounded by holiday gifts for a boy about to turn 1. Then it appears in photos of our son and his 1-month-old brother, this time with California palm trees just outside the door. And in more recent photos, our tree lights up windows overlooking shining Chicago snow. This year, after much debate, we decided to retire our dear old tree, with its bent branches and the lights that had burned out years ago. Rather than feel depressed, we used the moment to launch a new family tradition: our first real Christmas tree.
So here’s a toast to all your family’s traditions—the old and the new. I hope you enjoy this issue, which we have filled with stories of seasonal joy and holiday cheer. Happy holidays!
（ ）24．Where is the author’s present home
A．In Chicago. B．In Brooklyn. C．In California. D．In Los Angeles.
（ ）25．Why did the author keep the old tree for so long
A．His budget was tight. B．He was attached to it.
C．It was in good condition. D．It was environmentally-friendly.
（ ）26．Who is probably the author
A．An editor. B．A salesman. C．A delivery man. D．A home designer.
（ ）27．What can we learn from the story
A．The finest diamond must be cut.
B．Out with the old, in with the new.
C．Old friends and old wine are best.
D．All things in their being are good for something.
C
While we might like to think we would rush to someone’s assistance, we know from studies that often people hang back and this can have tragic consequences.
One of the most famous examples of this is the tragic case of Kitty Genovese who was fatally stabbed （刺伤） in Kew Gardens, New York, in 1964．Subsequent investigations concluded that several people saw or heard what was happening, but did nothing to intervene. This has been termed the “bystander effect” —a well-known psychological phenomenon where individuals are less likely to offer help to someone when other people are present. The more people there are, the less likely they are to help.
There are various factors contributing to this effect—people think that others will get involved or intervene. Afterwards people often say they did not feel qualified or senior or important enough to be the one to intervene. It is also partly down to “pluralistic （多元化的） ignorance” —since everyone is not reacting to the emergency, they don’t need to either; it’s not serious because no one else is doing anything. After a serious incident where people have been affected by the bystander effect, they are often horrified that they didn’t do anything—they can’t believe they had not realized it was more serious or that they didn’t think to get involved.
The important thing to understand though is that other studies have shown that once people are aware of the bystander effect, they are less likely to be affected by it. Self-awareness is the best approach to it. When confronted with an emergency, think to yourself how you would behave if you were on your own. Ignore everyone else and how they are behaving and go with your courage—if you’d call an ambulance, do it. If you’d run for help, do it. If that’s how you would have behaved when you were on your own, then that’s probably the right course of action.
（ ）28．Why does the author mention “the tragic case of Kitty Genovese” in paragraph 2
A．To present a fact. B．To confirm a finding.
C．To predict a conclusion. D．To illustrate an approach.
（ ）29．Influenced by the bystander effect, people may ______.
A．feel confident to intervene. B．tend to help people in need.
C．be well aware of bad consequences. D．feel shocked after a serious incident.
（ ）30．What does the author suggest people do when faced with an emergency
A．Think twice. B．Follow others.
C．Step in at once. D．Take action cautiously.
（ ）31．What is the best title of the text
A．Behave Yourself B．Don’t Be A Bystander
C．Action in An Emergency D．Severity of Bystander Effect
D
Depending on your view, the recorder is an instrument of “incredible functions” or a tool of annoyance that has bothered primary schools for too many generations. But now, it faces extinction, with one of the UK’s top music schools reporting an 80% decline in the number of young people playing it in the last 10 years.
The instrument’s future is so imperiled that the European Recorder Teachers Association is trying to bring it back to life again so it does not leave the stage. The ERTA argues that if the recorder was good enough for the Beatles, it has a place in modern music today.
Tom Redmond, the principal of Chetham’s school of music in Manchester, said only three of its pupils practised the recorder, compared with 15 a decade ago. “More pupils were taking up the piano or other instruments,” said Redmond. “The ones that became really popular are the ones students spend more time playing alone. With the instruments being more socially based, there has been a decline, just like the recorder. ”
Redmond also said that this problem extended “beyond the recorder itself” and was a mirror of the future of music. “Like removing any plant or animal from an ecosystem, removing the recorder has a huge chain effect beyond just the instrument. You need these instruments to create the inspiration for music, and without that, there is less excitement to learn music,” he said.
Chris Orton, a recorder tutor and chair of the ERTA, is leading the fight against the instrument’s extinction. He said, “The recorder is increasingly overlooked by students, and yet it has a rich history and incredible attractions. As well as making beautiful sounds, it’s an accessible instrument in that it is low-cost compared to other woodwind instruments, and it’s light and easy to carry.”
（ ）32．What does the underlined word “imperiled” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A．In danger. B．Full of hope. C．Out of memory. D．Beyond recognition.
（ ）33．What may result in a decrease of playing the recorder according to paragraph 3
A．Students are less excited to learn it.
B．Its disadvantages outweigh its advantages.
C．It requires more cooperation with other instruments.
D．Students are more likely to play high-end instruments.
（ ）34．What can we infer from Redmond’s words
A．Music education is essential for students.
B．The recorder shapes the future of music.
C．The recorder plays an important role in music.
D．Nature is a rich source of inspiration for musicians.
（ ）35．What does Ort on think of the recorder
A．It needs to be improved. B．It is inconvenient to play.
C．It is a priority for students. D．It deserves more attention.

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。
Knowledge is power, and the more you learn about mental health, the better the position you may be in to help those facing mental health battles. Consider doing the following things to support those closest to you.
Attend a training course
36 . In fact, anyone can benefit from depression awareness training that focuses on supporting those at risk. You might be a teacher that manages youth or a sports coach wanting to pick up on depression risk signs in your players. You may even be a worried parent who wants to make sure your children can tell you anything. Depression awareness and prevention courses teach you both theoretical and practical skills to recognize warning signs and behaviors. 37 .
Listen
If someone approaches you in their time of need, it’s not always easy to know what you’re supposed to do, and it may be more beneficial for you to just listen. 38 . They may just need to get what they are feeling off their chest and to feel valid at that moment. Try your best not to interrupt, but ask questions if you require clarification. The more listening you do, the better your position in deciding what to do next.
39
While being a listening ear is sometimes all someone needs to feel better, you can also become an ongoing source of support. Check in with the person experiencing a mental health problem like depression so that they know you are always there for them. Make contact with them regularly to see how they are feeling. Just knowing someone cares can make a world of difference.
Call emergency services
Your support, guidance, and listening ear can be of great value to anyone going through a tough time. 40 . If someone you know is experiencing self-abuse thoughts or tendencies, don’t delay in seeking emergency help. The faster you act, the safer your friend or family member may be.
A．Check in with them
B．Suggest support services
C．However, it’s essential to know your limits
D．Such a course may just help you to prevent someone’s depression
E．They may not need you to offer solutions or even give them a hug
F．Sometimes, the best thing you can do is encourage them to seek professional help
G．You don’t have to be in a professional health role to attend depression prevention training

The newfound team, now officially known as the Wildcats, started their basketball journey with a mix of eagerness and anxiety. The community center’s basketball court became their arena （竞技场）, a place where failures were just stepping stones to success, and every dribble （运球）, pass, and shot was a lesson in disguise.
Under Mr. Jordan’s guidance, practices became more than just learning how to play basketball; they were about discovering the strengths within and the power of unity. He had an approach to seeing the potential in every player.
One afternoon, as the team gathered around Mr. Jordan, he introduced a new drill that focused on passing and communication. “Basketball is a language,” he explained. “If you can’t communicate, you can’t win. This drill will help you understand each other without words. ”
The drill was a disaster at first. Passes went wrong, and frustration mounted. Jasmine’s quick passes were too swift for Mia, and Lucas’s attempts at humor during the drill only led to more confusion. Eli, ever the observer, noticed the tension and suggested a simple r system of hand signals they had discussed in a previous practice. Gradually, the team began to find their rhythm, learning to anticipate each other’s moves and communicate more effectively.
It wasn’t just basketball skills that the Wildcats were developing; it was a sense of belonging and trust in one another. Each practice ended with a team gathering, where Mr. Jordan shared stories from his coaching days, emphasizing the lessons learned from losses more than wins.
注意：（1）续写词数应为150左右；（2）开头已给出。
Paragraph 1: Soon came their first real game against a more experienced team. ____________________________

Paragraph 2: The second half saw a different Wildcats team. ___________________________________________

A 25-Kilometer Hiking
Last Saturday witnessed our school’s 25-kilometer hiking, aiming to admire the beauty of the nature and relieve our pressure of the study.
As scheduled, last Saturday morning, at 8 o’clock, we gathered at the school Square and held a brief setting-off ceremony where our headmasters, teachers and classmates delivered speeches to cheer us on to finish such a long hiking. Then, we began our journey from the school gate, holding flags with inspiring slogans. Subsequently, we lined up and marched side by side, laughing and singing all the way. After that, we returned along the same path around 2 o’clock in the afternoon, exhausted but delighted.
What a meaningful activity it was! Not only did it sharpen our perseverance but it also promoted our bond with each other.
第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
One possible version
Paragraph 1: Soon came their first real game against a more experienced team. The Wildcats started strong, their hard work and team spirit translating into a united performance. However, as the game progressed, their inexperience showed. The opposing team took advantage of every mistake, widening the gap in scores. During halftime, Mr. Jordan gathered the Wildcats. “Cheer up! Make full use of your potential and find your rhythm. Unity is strength!” Taking Mr. Jordan’s words to heart, they determined to make the best of their own strengths to cooperate.
Paragraph 2: The second half saw a different Wildcats team. Jasmine’s smartness became the team’s secret weapon. Eli’s quiet leadership on the court steadied the team’s nerves. Mia’s newfound confidence made her a powerful defender, and Lucas’s spirited energy kept their spirits high. Though still falling behind, they played with heart, each member supporting the others. Gradually, they narrowed the gap in scores. Eventually, they won the game. The game was a turning point. It taught the Wildcats the value of perseverance and the importance of supporting each other. They had faced their first real challenge and became stronger.

W: It is such a sort of instrumental part of our cooking vocabulary. And it is interesting that there are people who live without chopsticks. Chopsticks are a pair of two long sticks used to eat things with one hand. Holding chopsticks is a little bit like holding a pencil. Most of them are made out of wood. They’re also made out of plastic, bamboo, gold, silver and even ivory （象牙）. There’s evidence of chopsticks as long ago as the Shang dynasty, which is about 3,000 years ago. Chopsticks are really well designed for eating small bits of food. They’re good for picking up noodles. If you’re skilled, you can eat rice, pick up dumplings and pieces of meat. There are some no-nos （禁忌） with chopsticks. You should not use the chopsticks like drumsticks. You don’t want to stick chopsticks into a bowl of rice face-up. And it’s sort of like a sign of death. Chopsticks are used in a huge portion of the world, across much of Asia, about 1.5 billion people are covered in the chopsticks sphere （范围）. Different cultures have slightly different variations of chopsticks. Chinese chopsticks will tend to be long and round; Korean chopsticks are flatter and often made of metal; Japanese chopsticks tend to be round and very, very pointy （尖的）. One of the things about Asian cooking is that it often comes in very small pieces. And I think part of that has to do with the fact that it’s actually a lot more energy-efficient （节能的） to cook little pieces quickly.
