书面表达
One possible version:
Recent years have witnessed a remarkable boom in the popularity of Chinese products, which can be attributed to the following factors.
First, Chinese companies have been investing in innovation and quality, making our products globally competitive. Second, supporting homegrown products is a way of expressing our love for the country, as we take pride in what the nation has achieved. However, challenges lie ahead. One major concern is the need for Chinese products to maintain their quality and innovate continually. Moreover, how Chinese brands survive in the fierce global market is another one.
From my perspective, homegrown products are a reflection of our nation. If these companies continue to prioritize quality and ethics, I believe it will make us proud and confident about our culture.

阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
It's not like anywhere else I've been to: readers' favourite cities.
Bologna, Italy
When I picture Bologna, it's always bathed in golden-hour light that makes its rust-red walls glow. But what lies beneath the surface bewitches （迷人） just as much. Exploring the small and distinctive museums of the university reveals ancient courtyards. Diving into hidden doors and arches leads to secrets—or food. Music and debate liven evenings in the main square. On my last trip I watched locals in impassioned discussion, taking turns on stools（凳子） in Piazza Maggiore. Not trusting my Italian, I declined an invitation to contribute, but gladly accepted the cherries shared among the crowd.
Siobhan Maher
Melilla, Spain/North Africa
Melilla, on Morocco's northern coast, is a relic of Spain's colonial past with a character determined by its geography. Facing the Mediterranean on one side and the Rif mountains on the other, and surrounded by a terrifying border fence, it is definitively multicultural, with Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Hindu communities living side by side with a large force of Spanish soldiers. The cityscape is equally diverse: streets of small Moroccan houses give way to wide avenues lined with "art deco" marvels; it's even home to Africa's only genuine Gothic church.
Digby Warde-Aldam
Padua, Italy
Padua is full of fascinating places to see. Saint Anthony's Basilica, with a magnificent silver sarcophagus（石棺） housing the saint's body, easily rivals（媲美） Saint Peter's in Rome. The nearby botanical gardens, filled with plants and flowers, are a delightful way to pass a few hours. In the morning, hit Piazza della Frutta and Piazza delle Erbe, for buzzy markets selling everything from strawberries to sneakers, or pop into the Palazzo della Ragione with its impressive frescoes（壁画）. At night, both squares become open-air bars and restaurants for sampling local cuisine. If you have time for a day trip, Verona and Venice are less than an hour away by train.

22. What do we know about Melilla according to Digby
A. It boasts the largest Gothic church.
B. It is bordered by the Mediterranean.

C. Open-air music concerts. D. Convenient transportation.
B
It was just after 17:00 on a mid-September evening at a historical Church in Harlem, New York City. Mostly the low-income black neighborhood sat at dining tables. In front of them was a menu listing three courses, which they only saw on TV. Each dish was prepared with “leftover” ingredients（食材）, offered free of charge and placed alongside a blue card that read "you are loved” in hand-written script.
This is one of 14 community centers created around the world in cities like Milan, Paris, Mérida, Lima, Sydney and now New York through three-Michelin-starred chef Massimo Bottura’s Food for Soul project. He started the project in 2016 with his wife, Lara Gilmore, to help fight the global problem of food waste by using ingredients that might otherwise be thrown away by suppliers and to give socially and economically deprived people access to high quality meals.
Partnering with architects, artists and community leaders, the project is transforming spaces, which are not fully taken advantage of, such as churches and even a historical home into intentionally designed cultural centers equipped with kitchens, dining rooms and other facilities that help create a sense of well-being, connection and inclusion.
When I asked Bottura why he created such thoughtful meals within beautifully appointed spaces for the low-income, he told me that everyone deserves respect and beauty and of course, healthy food. “They come in and are completely lost because they’re not used to coming into beautiful places, like this. But once they’re here, they realize that this place is their place. It’s not my place,” he said.
Bottura’s philosophy is one that comes from the heart. T-shirts worn by volunteers at his community centers say “cooking is an act of love”, and he approaches the food served there with as much care as he does at his restaurants — “probably even more”, he said since the diners are extremely stressed and need healthy food to feel better. Bottura insists that it’s important to change the language around the food served in his community centers.
24. Why does the author describe such a scene in the first paragraph
A. To emphasize the warm atmosphere. B. To show the appeal of the dishes.
C. To introduce Bottura’s project. D. To explain how the event is organized.
25. What does the underlined word “deprived” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Conservative. B. discharged. C. Privileged. D. Disadvantaged.
26. Which of the following best describes Massimo Bottura
A. Skilled and strict. B. Wealthy and humorous.
C. Caring and considerate. D. Economical and influential.
27. What fundamental philosophy does Massimo Bottura express
A. Respect and beauty are for all.
B. Beautiful places inspire respect.
C. Cooking should be a profession.
D. Community centers bring people together.
C
Researchers in China have developed a robotic chemist powered by AI that might be able to obtain oxygen from water on Mars. The robot uses materials found on the red planet to produce catalysts (催化剂) that break down water, releasing oxygen.
“If you think about the challenge of going to Mars, you have to work with local material,” says Andy Cooper, a chemist at the University of Liverpool. “So I can see the logic behind it.”
The study was led by Jun Jiang at the University of Science and Technology of China. Jiang and his team used a mobile machine the size of a refrigerator with a robotic arm to analyse five meteorites (陨石) that had come from Mars. The team’s goal was to investigate whether the machine could produce useful catalysts from the material.
The AI-powered system used some chemicals to dissolve (溶解) and separate the material, then analysed the resulting substances that consists of two or more elements. These then formed the basis of a search of more than 3.7 million formulae (公式) for a chemical that could break down water—known to exist as ice at Mars’ poles and under the planet’s surface—a process the team said would have taken a human researcher 2, 000 years. The result was a catalyst that could release oxygen from water, with the potential for use on a future Mars mission.
If a catalyst that can produce oxygen from water can be made on Mars, this would remove the need for missions to carry such a catalyst from Earth. Jiang says that for every square metre of Martian material, his group’s system could make nearly 60 grams of oxygen per hour, potentially removing the need for astronauts on future missions to the planet to carry oxygen from Earth to use when they get there. “The robot can work continuously for years, ” says Jiang.
Jiang points out that his group’s robotic chemist could also be used to produce other useful catalysts on Mars, for processes like fertilizing (施肥) plants. “Different chemicals can be made by this robot,” he says. And Mars isn’t the only place where it could be used. “Maybe lunar soil is another direction,” Jiang says.
28. What can we learn about the study
A. A chemist with a robotic arm is involved.
B. Materials from Mars are analysed to produce catalysts.
C. Oxygen is of vital importance in space travels.
D. Researchers aim to purify the water on Mars.
29. What is Andy Cooper’s attitude towards the study
A. Approving. B. Unclear. C. Dismissive. D. Doubtful.
30. What’s the major advantage of the AI-powered system in the study
A. Precise calculation. B. Integration of materials.
C. Flexibility of movement. D. High-speed operation.
31. According to Jiang, which of the following is correct
A. The robotic chemist can be applied in a broader way.
B. Martian catalysts can produce more oxygen.
C. The system can make 60 grams of oxygen per day.
D. The robot can stand endless working time.
D
It was long theorized that people make decisions based on integrated global calculations that occur within the frontal cortex（额叶皮层）of the brain, which is considered the seat of higher-order thinking. However, Yale researchers have found that three distinct brain circuits from the frontal cortex connecting to different brain regions are involved in making good decisions, bad ones, and determining which of those past choices to store in memory.
The study of decision-making in rats may help scientists find the roots of flawed decision-making common to mental health disorders such as addiction, the authors say. They used a new tool to manipulate（操纵）brain circuits in rats while they were making choices between actions that led to them receiving rewards or no rewards. If the rats made the right decision, one that ended in a reward, one of the brain circuits was activated, but another was activated if the rats made the wrong choice and received no reward. The third circuit stored past experiences and decisions to help the rats with future choices.
Stephanie Groman, lead author of the research says, “A comparison would be deciding on a restaurant for dinner. For instance, without the ‘good choice’ circuit you may not return to the restaurant with good food and without the ‘bad choice’ circuit you might not avoid the restaurant with bad food. The third ‘memory’ circuit is crucial in making decisions such as whether to return to the restaurant after receiving one bad meal after several good ones.”
Changes in these circuits may help explain a typical feature of addiction—why people continue to make harmful choices even after repeated negative experiences. The Yale researchers previously showed that some of the same brain calculations were disrupted（扰乱）in animals that had taken methamphetamine. “Because we used a test that is similar to those used in studies of human decision making, our findings have direct relevance to humans and could aid in the search for novel treatments for substance abuse in humans,” Groman said.
32. How was Yale’s research different from the previous theory
A. It defined the function of different brain regions.
B. It focused on the connection between choices and memories.
C. It identified specific circuits involved in decision-making.
D. It highlighted the role of the frontal cortex in higher-order thinking.
33. What can be inferred from Stephanie Groman’s words
A. Memories are related to all the three circuits.
B. People base their decisions on personal preferences.
C. The three circuits are all of vital importance in making decisions.
D. The circuit related to rewards is the foundation of deciding wisely.
34. What does the last paragraph mainly focus on
A. The potential application of the conclusion.
B. A description of the research method.
C. A possible reason for the study findings.
D. The limitations of the present study.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How the brain helps us make good decisions and bad ones
B. How making decisions influences our brain
C. How our brain develops when facing choices
D. How people get addicted and cured

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There are few natural sounds more uplifting to my spirit than the bright and cheering calls and songs of black-capped chickadees (山雀). One of my morning routines is to step outside the house and listen for the voices of black-capped chickadees.
There is something comforting to me in black-capped chickadees’ presence. 36. Sometimes they are the only birds I’ll hear on my local woodland walks and for me the forest would be a lonelier place without them.
After I’d moved into a house on Anchorage Hillside, I placed a makeshift feeder on my home’s back. 37. For each, the routine was similar: dashed in, looked around, pecked (啄) at the tray, looked around again, and dashed out. Nervous little creatures, full of bright energy, they soon had me laughing at their funny way. By the time they moved on, I sensed an all-too-rare upwelling of fascination and joy.
Within days, a whole new world opened up as woodland neighbours I’d never known, or even imagined, joined the black-capped chickadees at my feeders: red-breasted nuthatches, common redpolls…What was remarkable was that all of those species were common residents of the Anchorage area. 38.
My newfound interest in birds grew quickly, surprising even me. 39. I visited bookstores in search of birding guidebooks, excitedly exchanged bird descriptions with a stranger, and purchased 50-pound bags of sunflower seeds. All of this seemed very strange to a middle-aged guy who’d never been attracted by birds. Even more, I had previously judged bird-watchers to be rather dull sorts.
40. They’ve reminded me how my world can expand and become enriched when I make the effort to pay attention. What else awaits me in our world, I wonder, that I haven’t yet discovered or noticed
A. Yet in prior days and years, I had no idea.
B. Nature always amazed me in its own way.
C. Within a day, black-capped chickadees accepted my invitation to dine.
D. Black-capped chickadees are a sign of good environment.
E. Black-capped chickadees have had a special place at the top of my affection.
F. What started as mere curiosity flowered into a consuming passion.
G. And much more often than not, they are heard before they’re seen.

With this new knowledge I will make 57 of a person’s anger of today, for he doesn’t know the secret of controlling his mind. No longer will I judge a man on one 58 .
