阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Aimed at children between 3 and 5years old, preschool programs can help build your child’s academic readiness, help them learn important social skills, improve cognitive（认知的）development, and prepare your child for school. But given all the available programs, how do you choose the best one for your little one’s personality and learning style To make the decision easier, check out the four popular preschool programs.
1．Montessori
Developed by physician and educator Maria Montessori, this comprehensive preschool program takes a developmental approach to learning. All teachers must have a Montessori certificate. The course emphasizes nature, creativity, and hands-on learning. Children focus on activities that are in line with their interests, which develops independence and natural curiosity. “If your child is used to a more strict schedule or guided learning, this may not be fit,” says Hilary Levey Friedman, a parenting expert.
2．Reggio Emilia
With an emphasis on exploration, the program focuses on the importance of community and self -expression. Students learn through art, projects, and activities that reflect their ideas and interests. There’s also an emphasis on cooperative（合作的）classroom activities and the approach considers children’s environment — their “third teacher”.
3．HighScope
The program uses a carefully designed approach called active participatory learning. Children have hands-on experiences with their surroundings, which promote the development of problem-solving tactics（策略）, conflict-solution methods, and other important skills.
4．Co-Ops
If you want to be directly involved with your child’s school experience, consider a cooperative preschool, where parents and caregiver s can work closely with the classroom teachers. Parents and caregivers might help with lessons, observe classroom behavior, and share in the business operation by serving on the school’s board of directors.
21．Who is this passage intended for
A．Teachers. B．Caregivers. C．Parents. D．Children.
22．What do Montessori and Reggio Emilia have in common
A．They attach importance to cooperation.
B．They involve activities that children are into.
C．Their teachers must possess a certificate.
D．They are designed for all children.
23．Which program is suitable if you want to engage in children’s school life
A．Montessori. B．Reggio Emilia. C．HighScope. D．Co-Ops.
B
Robot guide dogs may soon become available to the 17 million visually（视觉地）impaired people in China thanks to researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University , who achieved a breakthrough using an artificial intelligence language model.
The AI guide dog can provide assistance in life such as crossing streets, using elevators and guiding indoor spaces without having to be connected to the internet. It is a big step in exploring the application of involved intelligence —an intelligent machine with a physical form that can interact with the environment in real-time using sensors（传感器）to conduct instructions or make decisions. The research makes it possible to provide better guidance services for visually impaired people, especially for emotional companionship.
“Though in recent years there have been some electronic navigation aids（导航助手）, such as electronic navigation helmets, navigation canes, and electronic guide dogs, they cannot engage in conversations with people or fully understand human instructions,” said Sun Zhe, an associate professor at the university’s School of Artificial Intelligence, Optics and Electronics, “They can only perform tasks according to pre-designed programs. They are just cold machines. That’s not enough. Visually impaired people face numerous challenges in daily life, including navigation difficulties and possible dangers, but smart guide dogs using the language model can offer the m more convenient and safer guidance, effectively improving their life quality.” Sun said.
The research team began developing the smart guide dog based on the AI model at the end of last month. Its findings have been published in the Communications of the Chinese Computer Society. “The current results prove the possibility of this approach, but there is still some way to go before it can be put into practical application,” Sun said. “We will put more effort into it and make it available for those in need as soon as possible.”
24．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “impaired” in paragraph 1
A．Disabled B．Advantaged C．Cheated D．Treated
25．What assistance can AI-guide dogs provide
A．Offer suggestions based on the internet.
B．Replace you to make big decisions.
C．Provide real-time guidance in daily life.
D．Make emotional facial expressions.
26．What is the AI-guide dog’s advantage over other electronic navigation aids
A．It does not look like a cold machine.
B．It works with a more complex navigation system.
C．It is set with more pre-designed programs.
D．It has a better understanding of human instructions.
27．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The team has developed AI-guide dogs for a long time.
B．AI -guide dogs have not been put into production yet.
C．Many scientists doubt the team’s research achievements.
D．There is a lack of funding for the project’s research.
C
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah —Drive west of this high desert city, and it’s like entering another world. Or maybe better put, another worldly landscape: the vast, and drying wetlands along the Great Salt Lake, the largest salt lake left in the western hemisphere（西半球）, some fifty miles long and thirty wide.
Carly Biedul is part of a team of scientists who have been tracking the lake’s decline am id the West’s record drought, which is made worse by climate change. They’ve been conducting weekly trips to various sampling and study sites for the last several years at the remote lake that only recently started making international headlines due to its sharp decline. Scientists warn the lake has already shrunk（缩减）nearly in half from its historical average. “For these birds that queue into these salty habitats, there are fewer places for them to go.” Says Heidi Hoven, a wetlands ecologist.
Scientists say the West is believed to be as dry as it’s been in 1,200 years. The record drought has been contributing to the Great Salt Lake’s decline. But agriculture usually bears the major part of the blame. Upstream water diversions（导流）for expanding farms have meant less and less flows into the lake. Utah’s population is also growing fast, and the development is now running right up to the lake.
But all this shock and alarm, the scientists say, may be good. Faced with such severe situation, the state is being pushed into action. Utah Governor Spencer Cox has promised the lake won’t dry up on his watch. The state’s law -making department has put upwards of a billion dollars lately into water conservation programs. Heidi Hoven sees the shorebirds as a key indicator species. “We have so much more to understand about what their needs are. In these changing times, it’s really highlighting the need to understand these things quickly. The last two winters may have bought Utah a little time, but no one in the West is depending on another good snow year next year.” She says.
28．What can we learn about the Great Salt Lake
A．It is the biggest salt lake in the world.
B．It has been a worldwide focus for long.
C．It is declining at an alarming rate.
D．It attracts more and more birds.
29．What is the major cause of the lake’s drying up
A．Water diversion.
B．Climate change.
C．Increasing population.
D．Housing development.
30．What is Utah’s reaction towards the drought
A．Its governor just made a false promise.
B．It is determined to improve the situation.
C．It asks scientists to keep watching.
D．It spends lots of money to clear farms.
31．What is Heidi Hoven’s attitude towards the drying Great Salt Lake
A．Optimistic. B．Uncaring. C．Relieved. D．Worried.
D
The Chinese Academy of Sciences（CAS）has released the highest -resolution geological maps of the Moon yet. The Geologic Atlas（地图集）of the Lunar Globe, which took more than 100 researchers over a decade to complete, reveals a total of 12,341 craters（火山口）,81 basins and 17 rock types, along with other basic geological information about the lunar surface. The maps were made at the unheard-of scale of 1:2,500,000．
Jianzhong Liu, a geochemist at the CAS Institute of Geochemistry in Guiyang and co-leader of the project, says that existing Moon maps date from the 1960s and 1970s. “The US Geological Survey used data from the Apollo missions to create a number of geological maps of the Moon, including a global map at the scale of 1:5,000,000 and some regional, higher-accuracy ones near the landing sites,” he says. “Since then, our knowledge of the Moon has advanced greatly, and those maps could no longer meet the needs for future lunar research and exploration.”
The atlas used data from China’s lunar exploration programme, especially the Chang’e -1 mission’s observation of lunar topography（地形）and geological structures, according to Liu. Observations made on the Moon’s surface by the Chang’e -3 and Chang’e -4 lander missions in 2013 and 2019, respectively, helped to confirm the accuracy of the Chang’e -1 data. The atlas team also used data from missions such as the GRAIL and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, both launched by NASA, and India’s Chandrayaan-1 probe.
“Contributing to lunar science is a profound way for China to establish its potential role as a scientific powerhouse in the decades to come,” says Mitchell, a geophysicist at the CAS Institute of Geology and Geophysics in Beijing. With the update d atlas, scientists will be able to better understand the history of the Moon, find potential lunar resources and conduct comparative geological studies. Liu says the completed atlas has been put into a cloud platform called the Digital Moon, and will eventually become available to the international research community.
32．Why does the author mention the Apollo-era maps in paragraph 2
A．To show their hard work.
B．To praise their significance.
C．To stress the need for new lunar maps.
D．To introduce the origin of lunar maps.
33．What can we learn about The Geologic Atlas of the Lunar Globe
A．It is much more accurate than Apollo-era maps.
B．It reveals geological features of the landing sites.
C．It was mainly based on the observations of Chang’e-3 and 4 missions.
D．It provides data for other countries’ lunar missions, such as the GRAIL.
34．What is the importance of the new lunar atlas
A．It confirms the accuracy of previous Moon maps.
B．It helps scientists to learn deeper about the Moon.
C．It reveals the Moon’s history and geological features.
D．It is the only lunar atlas that opens to all countries.
35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Geological Studies of the Moon
B．China’s Lunar Exploration Missions
C．The Development of the Moon Maps
D．The Most Detailed Moon Atlas Ever Made

Shavi, a homeless dog, suffered a terrifying moment on the deserted streets of south- west Russia during a bitter winter. After being struck by a car, with two broken legs, her pain echoed （回响）silently in the icy air. Fortunately, a warm-hearted vet（兽医）happened upon the scene, his compassion driving him to provide the much -needed care and attention. Through tireless efforts and treatment, Shavi’s broken bones began to heal. After launching an appeal to find someone who could look after Shavi, the vet found Nina Baranovskaya, a well-known doctor with a passion for aiding animals, who collected her and helped her to walk again.
With a heart full of thanks, Shavi turned a new chapter of her journey under the loving care of Nina. Day by day, Shavi regained her strength and confidence. The bond between Shavi and Nina deepened with each passing moment. They spent countless happy hours together, playing in the park, chasing butterflies, and enjoying each other’s company（陪伴）. Nina loved these simple yet precious moments, finding comfort and joy in Shavi’s loyalty and playful behavior. Together, they formed a beautiful partnership, united by love and the shared happiness of companionship.
Nina’s life took an unexpected turn when she got a new job that made her move to another city. Sadly, she couldn’t keep Shavi in her new small apartment. Luckily, one of Nina’s friends decided to adopt Shavi, who, however, lived 185miles away, close to the Russian border. But just days after settling into his new home, Shavi disappeared silently. Nina felt heartbroken, thinking about her lost friend in the vast Russian landscape.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua, a senior 2 student. I am writing to bring to your attention a minor issue regarding the English translation on the public notice boards on our campus.
I happened to notice that the translation in the canteen reads “Slip safely”. I believe there is a grammatical error in this phrase. The correct phrase should be “Caution! Wet”. I suggest that we correct this error to ensure clarity and accuracy in communication. Besides, Making this adjustment will demonstrate our commitment to acceptance and attention to detail.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Best regards.

（三）One possible Version
续写第一段: Two weeks later, while walking along the road outside her home, Nina felt something brushing up against her leg. Surprised, she looked down to find Shavi shaking her tail with excitement. Tears of joy streamed down Nina’s face as she knelt down to embrace Shavi, knowing that Shavi had made the almost 200-mile journey back to her. An sense of relief and happiness washing over her, Nina knew deep down that she couldn’t bear to be separated from Shavi again. She made up her mind to find a solution.
续写第二段: The pair stuck together and moved into a bigger apartment. Shavi’s return brought a new sense of purpose and happiness into Nina’s life. They shared a bond that couldn’t be broken, and Nina was determined to never give him away again. Animals are the most loyal and loving creatures in the world. For every drop of human love, they are willing to give all of theirs in return. Nina knows that from her personal experience. Shavi is like a child to her.

Aimed at children between 3 and 5years old, preschool programs can help build your child’s academic readiness, help them learn important social skills, improve cognitive（认知的）development, and prepare your child for school. But given all the available programs, how do you choose the best one for your little one’s personality and learning style To make the decision easier, check out the four popular preschool programs.
1．Montessori
Developed by physician and educator Maria Montessori, this comprehensive preschool program takes a developmental approach to learning. All teachers must have a Montessori certificate. The course emphasizes nature, creativity, and hands-on learning. Children focus on activities that are in line with their interests, which develops independence and natural curiosity. “If your child is used to a more strict schedule or guided learning, this may not be fit,” says Hilary Levey Friedman, a parenting expert.
2．Reggio Emilia
With an emphasis on exploration, the program focuses on the importance of community and self -expression. Students learn through art, projects, and activities that reflect their ideas and interests. There’s also an emphasis on cooperative（合作的）classroom activities and the approach considers children’s environment — their “third teacher”.
3．HighScope
The program uses a carefully designed approach called active participatory learning. Children have hands-on experiences with their surroundings, which promote the development of problem-solving tactics（策略）, conflict-solution methods, and other important skills.
4．Co-Ops
If you want to be directly involved with your child’s school experience, consider a cooperative preschool, where parents and caregiver s can work closely with the classroom teachers. Parents and caregivers might help with lessons, observe classroom behavior, and share in the business operation by serving on the school’s board of directors.
21．Who is this passage intended for
A．Teachers. B．Caregivers. C．Parents. D．Children.
22．What do Montessori and Reggio Emilia have in common
A．They attach importance to cooperation.
B．They involve activities that children are into.
C．Their teachers must possess a certificate.
D．They are designed for all children.
23．Which program is suitable if you want to engage in children’s school life
A．Montessori. B．Reggio Emilia. C．HighScope. D．Co-Ops.
B
Robot guide dogs may soon become available to the 17 million visually（视觉地）impaired people in China thanks to researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University , who achieved a breakthrough using an artificial intelligence language model.
The AI guide dog can provide assistance in life such as crossing streets, using elevators and guiding indoor spaces without having to be connected to the internet. It is a big step in exploring the application of involved intelligence —an intelligent machine with a physical form that can interact with the environment in real-time using sensors（传感器）to conduct instructions or make decisions. The research makes it possible to provide better guidance services for visually impaired people, especially for emotional companionship.
“Though in recent years there have been some electronic navigation aids（导航助手）, such as electronic navigation helmets, navigation canes, and electronic guide dogs, they cannot engage in conversations with people or fully understand human instructions,” said Sun Zhe, an associate professor at the university’s School of Artificial Intelligence, Optics and Electronics, “They can only perform tasks according to pre-designed programs. They are just cold machines. That’s not enough. Visually impaired people face numerous challenges in daily life, including navigation difficulties and possible dangers, but smart guide dogs using the language model can offer the m more convenient and safer guidance, effectively improving their life quality.” Sun said.
The research team began developing the smart guide dog based on the AI model at the end of last month. Its findings have been published in the Communications of the Chinese Computer Society. “The current results prove the possibility of this approach, but there is still some way to go before it can be put into practical application,” Sun said. “We will put more effort into it and make it available for those in need as soon as possible.”
24．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “impaired” in paragraph 1
A．Disabled B．Advantaged C．Cheated D．Treated
25．What assistance can AI-guide dogs provide
A．Offer suggestions based on the internet.
B．Replace you to make big decisions.
C．Provide real-time guidance in daily life.
D．Make emotional facial expressions.
26．What is the AI-guide dog’s advantage over other electronic navigation aids
A．It does not look like a cold machine.
B．It works with a more complex navigation system.
C．It is set with more pre-designed programs.
D．It has a better understanding of human instructions.
27．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The team has developed AI-guide dogs for a long time.
B．AI -guide dogs have not been put into production yet.
C．Many scientists doubt the team’s research achievements.
D．There is a lack of funding for the project’s research.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah —Drive west of this high desert city, and it’s like entering another world. Or maybe better put, another worldly landscape: the vast, and drying wetlands along the Great Salt Lake, the largest salt lake left in the western hemisphere（西半球）, some fifty miles long and thirty wide.
Carly Biedul is part of a team of scientists who have been tracking the lake’s decline am id the West’s record drought, which is made worse by climate change. They’ve been conducting weekly trips to various sampling and study sites for the last several years at the remote lake that only recently started making international headlines due to its sharp decline. Scientists warn the lake has already shrunk（缩减）nearly in half from its historical average. “For these birds that queue into these salty habitats, there are fewer places for them to go.” Says Heidi Hoven, a wetlands ecologist.
Scientists say the West is believed to be as dry as it’s been in 1,200 years. The record drought has been contributing to the Great Salt Lake’s decline. But agriculture usually bears the major part of the blame. Upstream water diversions（导流）for expanding farms have meant less and less flows into the lake. Utah’s population is also growing fast, and the development is now running right up to the lake.
But all this shock and alarm, the scientists say, may be good. Faced with such severe situation, the state is being pushed into action. Utah Governor Spencer Cox has promised the lake won’t dry up on his watch. The state’s law -making department has put upwards of a billion dollars lately into water conservation programs. Heidi Hoven sees the shorebirds as a key indicator species. “We have so much more to understand about what their needs are. In these changing times, it’s really highlighting the need to understand these things quickly. The last two winters may have bought Utah a little time, but no one in the West is depending on another good snow year next year.” She says.
28．What can we learn about the Great Salt Lake
A．It is the biggest salt lake in the world.
B．It has been a worldwide focus for long.
C．It is declining at an alarming rate.
D．It attracts more and more birds.
29．What is the major cause of the lake’s drying up
A．Water diversion.
B．Climate change.
C．Increasing population.
D．Housing development.
30．What is Utah’s reaction towards the drought
A．Its governor just made a false promise.
B．It is determined to improve the situation.
C．It asks scientists to keep watching.
D．It spends lots of money to clear farms.
31．What is Heidi Hoven’s attitude towards the drying Great Salt Lake
A．Optimistic. B．Uncaring. C．Relieved. D．Worried.
D
The Chinese Academy of Sciences（CAS）has released the highest -resolution geological maps of the Moon yet. The Geologic Atlas（地图集）of the Lunar Globe, which took more than 100 researchers over a decade to complete, reveals a total of 12,341 craters（火山口）,81 basins and 17 rock types, along with other basic geological information about the lunar surface. The maps were made at the unheard-of scale of 1:2,500,000．
Jianzhong Liu, a geochemist at the CAS Institute of Geochemistry in Guiyang and co-leader of the project, says that existing Moon maps date from the 1960s and 1970s. “The US Geological Survey used data from the Apollo missions to create a number of geological maps of the Moon, including a global map at the scale of 1:5,000,000 and some regional, higher-accuracy ones near the landing sites,” he says. “Since then, our knowledge of the Moon has advanced greatly, and those maps could no longer meet the needs for future lunar research and exploration.”
The atlas used data from China’s lunar exploration programme, especially the Chang’e -1 mission’s observation of lunar topography（地形）and geological structures, according to Liu. Observations made on the Moon’s surface by the Chang’e -3 and Chang’e -4 lander missions in 2013 and 2019, respectively, helped to confirm the accuracy of the Chang’e -1 data. The atlas team also used data from missions such as the GRAIL and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, both launched by NASA, and India’s Chandrayaan-1 probe.
“Contributing to lunar science is a profound way for China to establish its potential role as a scientific powerhouse in the decades to come,” says Mitchell, a geophysicist at the CAS Institute of Geology and Geophysics in Beijing. With the update d atlas, scientists will be able to better understand the history of the Moon, find potential lunar resources and conduct comparative geological studies. Liu says the completed atlas has been put into a cloud platform called the Digital Moon, and will eventually become available to the international research community.
32．Why does the author mention the Apollo-era maps in paragraph 2
A．To show their hard work.
B．To praise their significance.
C．To stress the need for new lunar maps.
D．To introduce the origin of lunar maps.
33．What can we learn about The Geologic Atlas of the Lunar Globe
A．It is much more accurate than Apollo-era maps.
B．It reveals geological features of the landing sites.
C．It was mainly based on the observations of Chang’e-3 and 4 missions.
D．It provides data for other countries’ lunar missions, such as the GRAIL.
34．What is the importance of the new lunar atlas
A．It confirms the accuracy of previous Moon maps.
B．It helps scientists to learn deeper about the Moon.
C．It reveals the Moon’s history and geological features.
D．It is the only lunar atlas that opens to all countries.
35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Geological Studies of the Moon
B．China’s Lunar Exploration Missions
C．The Development of the Moon Maps
D．The Most Detailed Moon Atlas Ever Made

Shavi, a homeless dog, suffered a terrifying moment on the deserted streets of south- west Russia during a bitter winter. After being struck by a car, with two broken legs, her pain echoed （回响）silently in the icy air. Fortunately, a warm-hearted vet（兽医）happened upon the scene, his compassion driving him to provide the much -needed care and attention. Through tireless efforts and treatment, Shavi’s broken bones began to heal. After launching an appeal to find someone who could look after Shavi, the vet found Nina Baranovskaya, a well-known doctor with a passion for aiding animals, who collected her and helped her to walk again.
With a heart full of thanks, Shavi turned a new chapter of her journey under the loving care of Nina. Day by day, Shavi regained her strength and confidence. The bond between Shavi and Nina deepened with each passing moment. They spent countless happy hours together, playing in the park, chasing butterflies, and enjoying each other’s company（陪伴）. Nina loved these simple yet precious moments, finding comfort and joy in Shavi’s loyalty and playful behavior. Together, they formed a beautiful partnership, united by love and the shared happiness of companionship.
Nina’s life took an unexpected turn when she got a new job that made her move to another city. Sadly, she couldn’t keep Shavi in her new small apartment. Luckily, one of Nina’s friends decided to adopt Shavi, who, however, lived 185miles away, close to the Russian border. But just days after settling into his new home, Shavi disappeared silently. Nina felt heartbroken, thinking about her lost friend in the vast Russian landscape.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua, a senior 2 student. I am writing to bring to your attention a minor issue regarding the English translation on the public notice boards on our campus.
I happened to notice that the translation in the canteen reads “Slip safely”. I believe there is a grammatical error in this phrase. The correct phrase should be “Caution! Wet”. I suggest that we correct this error to ensure clarity and accuracy in communication. Besides, Making this adjustment will demonstrate our commitment to acceptance and attention to detail.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Best regards.
