A young and fearless child, Thomas Alva Edison wanted to know the inner workings of the world around him and was not afraid to dive （潜水） into the river behind his house to find answers. At five, his curiosity to understand fire ended with the family barn burned down. His dangerous curiosity and endless questions drove his father crazy. But his mother saw something else in her son.
Edison’s “turnabout” really began at age eight. He was registered at Reverend Engle’s school in 1855．The lessons were likely boring to the little boy. He daydreamed through classes.
One day, in front of Edison, Reverend Engle complained that the boy was addled and unable to be taught. Edison ran home in tears. The next day, his mother, Nancy Edison, brought him back to discuss the situation with Reverend Engle. She became angry at the teacher’s ways—Everything was forced on the kids. She said her son was much smart and that she would educate him at home. Surprisingly, this marked the end of Edison’s formal education and the beginning of the great inventor.
Mrs. Edison equipped her son with works of literature and history as well as science that fed his passion （求知）. She encouraged Edison’s hands-on experiments. Young Edison applied what he learned to practice. Despite a few explosions and burns that happened at home, Mrs. Edison encouraged her son to go on in that path.
It was the model of discovery and innovation （创新） that Edison learned from his mother that would mark the rest of his creative life. Edison met challenges with his head and hands.
The light of Edison, which has lasted more than a century, might never have reached us were it not for an admirable mother who saw the promise in her son where others only saw problems.
（ ）24．What can we know about young Edison
A．He was curious about the world around him.

C．His action made his teacher quite proud.
D．He was forced to drop out of high school.

D．She believed that the school was to be closed.

B．Focus on the promise their children show.
C．Develop their children’s love for experiments.
D．Take no notice of mistakes their children made.

Climate change is drying out rivers, supercharging wildfires, raising seas and changing the seasons as we know them. These disastrous changes to the environments we depend on for food and shelter are also harming our mental health.
“We’re seeing a lot of anxieties in research, especially as more people start to understand that climate change is a very real phenomenon,” says Derrick Sebree, a psychologist （心理学家） at the Michigan School of Psychology.
A recently published UN report noted that mental health cases are resulting from extreme weather and rising temperatures. It also warned that these extreme conditions are only going to worsen. In 2017, the American Psychological Association argued that therapists （理疗师） will be almost as important as cooling centers to help people deal with a changing planet.
When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, the storm and resulting floods killed nearly 2,000 people and damaged nearly 300,000 homes. A study of 400 people found a quarter experienced post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for two years following the storm.
Therapists treating natural disaster survivors say mental health issues may not always appear immediately. “Two to three years later, somebody may think they are doing great, but actually they’re not,” says Dix Moore-Broussard, a therapist who experienced Katrina and treated those who suffered PTSD from it.
Along with the typical symptoms （症状） of PTSD, like anxiety, Moore-Broussard says she saw patients who had deep worry about what might happen in the future, which can badly affect normal brain function. People who had been impacted by natural disasters also struggled to focus and process their thoughts.
Psychologists are taking climate change seriously. They help patients find local therapists who have signaled an interest in treating climate-related disorders. “People experiencing climate anxiety tend to care about the environment and can benefit from spending time outdoors,” says Derrick Sebree. He adds that spending time in nature improves both mental health conditions and physical conditions.
（ ）28．Which is a cause of mental health cases according to the UN report
A．Worsening weather conditions. B．Increasing medical costs.
C．Concern about food supplies. D．Pressure from daily work.
（ ）29．What does Dix Moore-Broussard want to say about natural disaster survivors
A．Their physical health will become worse in two years.
B．Their mental sufferings may show later than they thought.
C．They are more likely to recover from their operations.
D．They find it hard to get the medical treatment they need.
（ ）30．What does Derrick Sebree probably advise people with climate anxiety to do
A．Spend time at home. B．Grow houseplants.
C．Keep happy memories. D．Get close to nature.
（ ）31．What is the text mainly about
A．A cure for the mental disorder. B．A solution to natural disasters.
C．Climate change’s hidden threat. D．Family worries about the heat.
D
Fans of Star Wars might remember Luke Skywalker’s home planet. Called Tatooine, the planet orbits two stars. A new study suggests similar planets might be the best focus in the search for places that can host life outside our solar system.
Many suns come in pairs called binary stars. Lots of these should have planets orbiting them. That means there could be more planets orbiting around binary stars than around lo ne stars like our sun. But until now, no one had a clear idea about whether those planets could host life. New computer models suggest that in many cases planets like Tatooine could be fit for life.
The researchers ran computer models of binary stars arranged in thousands of ways. Each had an Earthlike planet orbiting the two stars. The team modeled different sizes and shapes of the stars’ orbit around each other. They then tracked the movement of the planets for up to a billion years of simulated （模拟） time. That showed whether the planets would stay in orbit over timescales that might develop conditions to start life. They also checked to see if the planets stayed in a habitable zone. That’s the region around a star where an orbiting planet’s temperatures are never extremely hot or cold, and water could stay liquid （液态）.
“An atmosphere and oceans could make a great difference,” says Mariah MacDonald, who took part in the new modeling work. Plentiful air and water could change the picture. Adding atmospheres to the modeled planets should increase the number of stars that could host life. She hopes to build more advanced models in coming months.
“Models of planets orbiting binary stars could guide future efforts to look for them with telescopes,” says Jason Wright, who studies the physics of stars at Pennsylvania State University. “This is an under-explored population of planets. There’s no reason why we can’t go after them,” he says. “And it might be worthwhile to try.”
（ ）32．Why does the author mention Tatooine in Star Wars
A．To attract movie lovers. B．To introduce the topic.
C．To remember an old friend. D．To present a newfound planet.
（ ）33．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us about the modeling work
A．Its preparation. B．Its application. C．Its process. D．Its finding.
（ ）34．What does Mariah MacDonald hope to do
A．Improve the study. B．Lead a peaceful life. C．Start another project. D．Travel into outer space.
（ ）35．What is Jason Wright’s attitude towards the models
A．Doubtful. B．Positive. C．Concerned. D．Uncaring.

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。
Cultural tourism is a form of travel that focuses on exploring and experiencing the cultural heritage and traditions of a particular destination. Cultural tourism is a good way to enrich your experience as a tourist. 36 .
Cultural tourism helps to encourage the protection of culture and heritage by keeping endangered traditions alive. For example, heritage handicraft skills （手工技能） might be little practical, but outside interest could be enough to safeguard a tradition that might otherwise have been lost.
Cultural tourism also improves education. 37 , such as workshops, language lessons, or historical tours. They can learn about the traditions and customs of different cultures, and enrich their knowledge and experiences.
However, when cultural practices and traditions are presented only for tourism purposes, they may lose their true meaning and become superficial （表面的） performances aimed at entertaining tourists. 38 .
In addition, a lot of tourists can put a pressure on local resources. 39 , which leads to overcrowding, too much pollution and damage to historical sites.
Most importantly, cultural tourism may lead to the loss of cultural diversity. As destinations become more popular to mass tourism, there is a risk of homogenization, where cultural practices and traditions become standardized to the tastes and expectations of tourists.
40 , can the benefits outweigh the downsides.
A．Only when culture tourism is managed properly
B．This can lead to a misunderstanding of the culture
C．It is important to improve cultural understanding and respect
D．Because cultural tourism often involves travelling to far areas
E．Travelers have the chance to take part in educational activities
F．But it’s worth noting that this type of travel has both benefits and downsides
G．Popular cultural destinations often experience an increase in the number of visitors

Jane was still sleeping when the phone rang in the living room. She opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the clock on the table. It was already nine o’clock! Although Jane was still very sleepy, she knew she had to get up because her mother was working in her office and she couldn’t expect her younger brother Tom, who was sleeping like a pig, to answer the phone.
She quickly put on a coat and ran to the living room. When she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warm greeting, “Good morning!”
It was from her father, who was a sea man and rarely came back. Suddenly, Jane’s sleepiness disappeared.
Born in a not-so-rich family, Jane and Tom felt the stress of life, but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. At school, they were straight-A students and took part in various after-school activities. They were the pride of the family.
“Good morning, Dad. Why do you call us so early on the weekend ” Jane said and pretended to be annoyed. “Tom and I have been very nice recently.”
“My dear, today is your mother’s birthday, and I have ordered a cake online and it will be sent to our home late in the afternoon. Do remember to take the cake. It is my surprise for your mother.”
Hearing her father’s words, Jane felt a little ashamed. How could she forget her mother’s birthday !
While she was chatting with her father, Jane looked around the room and saw a lot of dirty clothes on the sofa. The floor hadn’t been cleaned for a few days since her mother had to work all this week.
She looked at the clock again and was sure that she still had enough time to prepare a surprise for her mother.
“Well, Dad, now I’m going to wake Tom up. We will give Mum a surprise, too!” Jane said and hung up the telephone.

第一节
One possible version:
Located in Southwest China, Sichuan Province has many world-famous places of interest. One of my family trips to Jiuzhaigou, a nature reserve in Sichuan, still remains fresh in my memory.
Stepping onto the magical land, I was totally amazed at its multi-level waterfalls and lakes of wonderful colors: clear, blue green and dark green. Creatures were living in harmony with nature here. As we walked deeper, we even saw rare animals like giant pandas and golden monkeys.
All in all, a trip to Sichuan is highly recommended and it is well worth another visit.
第二节
One possible version:
Jane hurried to Tom’s room and shared her plan with him. Having learned about the details, Tom volunteered to clean the floor. It took him more than two hours to clean every corner in the house. For the first time, Tom realized how hard it had been for his mother and sister to keep the house clean. While Tom was working, Jane washed the dirty clothes and decorated the room with colorful balloons. When the cake arrived, everything was ready for the big moment.
“Happy birthday, Mum!” Jane and Tom shouted when their mother opened the door. Seeing the beautifully decorated room and the big cake on the table, their mother seemed to be very confused and surprised. After Tom and Jane told her what had happened, she could hardly hide her excitement and hugged them tightly. “It is the best birthday gift I have ever had!” said their mother, who then took out her smartphone and made a video. “We should share this surprise with your father!”
