On the morning of the big day, Vially Dorestant prepared for her son Corey’s school photo shoot to ensure he felt calm and confident. Little did she know, she needn’t have worried.
In a video posted online, Corey displayed his planned smile for the picture at his new school. With a lovable grin(咧着嘴笑), Dorestant believed he was well-prepared.
Dorestant shared, “Corey can become shy and anxious around people, so I wanted to make sure he felt at ease during his first picture day at the new school.”
However, Corey’s actual pose for the picture was far from the shy and sweet smile his mom had expected. The video revealed Corey posing with left hand in his pocket and right hand resting under his chin (下巴)—a gesture that caught Dorestant completely off guard.
“At the first sight of the picture, I was stunned; it took me about five minutes to process because I couldn’t believe what I saw,” Dorestant said. But eventually, she found it amusing.
“I felt so proud of Corey for overcoming his nervousness and allowing his true personality to shine through. As a mother, my only wish is for him to be true to himself through any challenges he faces,” Dorestant said.
Dorestant’s video has over 18 million views and 25,000 comments, with many surprised by the result. “Nothing could have prepared me for the ending,” one user wrote, while another commented that it was the “best case scenario (场景)”.
For Dorestant, Corey’s first picture day served as a valuable lesson. “As parents, we often feel the need to protect our kids and prepare them for the world, which can make us anxious about their readiness, but we need to trust in their abilities and give them the space to shine on their own,” Dorestant said.
4. What did Dorestant worry about her son at first
A. He was frightened to meet his new classmates.
B. He was embarrassed to pose for a photo.
C. He might get lost on his way to school.
D. He might be unprepared for the new term.
5. What does the underlined word “stunned” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Shocked. B. Disappointed. C. Grateful. D. Worried.
6. What can we know about Dorestant’s video
A. It went unnoticed. B. It made record profits.
C. It was well received. D. It put Corey in trouble.
7. What did Dorestant advise parents to do
A. Believe their own judgement. B. Serve as an experienced guide.
C. Teach their children everything. D. Give full play to kids’ potential.

Have you ever struggled with a task because two arms just weren’t enough If so, you might like a new device that can lend a helping hand literally(真正地). You wear this robotic arm, and then control it with the muscle you use to breathe.
Currently, the robotic arm is worn in the middle of your chest, but it can also be placed above your shoulders or at your side, depending on what you want to do with it. Engineer Giulia Dominijanni, part of a team at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), helped create the device.
In the past, robotic arms were designed to replace lost arms, with brain signals controlling them. This new device allows users to control an extra arm while still using their real arms. For this reason, the team designed it to be controlled by breathing.
The robotic arm can sense the movement of your diaphragm (膈膜), the muscle that helps you breathe. When you breathe in, the robotic arm stretches; when you breathe out, it retracts(缩回). Breathing normally keeps the arm still.
Before making the actual arm, the EPFL team created a virtual reality (VR) model. Volunteers learned to control this virtual third arm using breath sensors. The tests showed that people could easily look around and talk while using the arm.
After successful VR tests, the team built a simple robotic arm that functions like the virtual one. Early tests showed that users could comfortably operate the extra arm alongside their own arms.
However, researchers are still exploring how well people can control this robotic arm without affecting the use of their natural arms. Jacob George, a director at the University of Utah’s robotics center, notes, “When you’re adding something new on your body, it’s unclear how much the brain can do with that. But in time it becomes possible to control the new arm well.” And scientists at EPFL believe that understanding this could benefit those with disabilities or people recovering from injuries.
8. How do EPFL’s robotic arms differ from previous ones
A. They feature affordable prices.
B. They are operated by breathing.
C. They can address our health issues.
D. They are controlled by brain signals.
9. Why did the EPFL team create a VR model
A. To cut its production cost.
B. To attract more volunteers.
C. To know how brains work.
D. To test the newly-invented arm’s actual function.
10. What is Jacob’s attitude to the robotic arm
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Unclear.
11. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Secret of Human Brains B. A New Device Helps Scientists
C. Robotics Gives Us an Extra Arm D. Tips on How to Use an Extra Arm
D
The Europa Clipper spacecraft has reached a key milestone and is on track to launch to explore Jupiter’s moon(木星的卫星), Europa. The launch window for its journey opens on October 10.
On Monday, the mission passed Key Decision Point E, which is a critical planning stage that allows the mission to move forward. This news was a relief for the Europa Clipper team, especially after a possible issue with the spacecraft’s transistors(晶体管) discovered in May. These transistors are important for controlling the spacecraft’s electricity and needed to survive Jupiter’s high levels of radiation(辐射).
Over the past four months, the team have conducted many tests on the transistors at different NASA facilities. They made sure to finish testing on time to avoid putting off the launch. Europa Clipper will carry ten scientific instruments to help determine if Europa could support life in its salty, subsurface ocean.
With the mission approved, there are no changes to the launch plan. “It’s the last sort of big examination before we really get into that launch fever, and we’re really happy to say that they passed that examination today,” said Nicola Fox from NASA’s Science Mission Directorate.
Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and has a powerful magnetic field(磁场) which is 20,000 times stronger than Earth’s. Any spacecraft going there must have radiation- hardened electronics. Jordan Evans, the project manager, noted that Europa is at the edge of a radiation belt, making it a challenging place to explore.
Curt Niebur, a program scientist, noted this mission is not about looking for life itself but determining if necessary elements for life, such as water and energy, are present on Europa. If Europa Clipper finds these, it could lead to a follow-up mission to search for life.
12. What can be inferred about the spacecraft’s transistors from paragraph 2
A. They put off the launch mission. B. They fell into pieces in space.
C. They are in good condition now. D. They had survived on the moon.
13. What did Nicola want to say about the result of the mission’s final examination
A. It was satisfying. B. It was subject to change.
C. It was wasting time. D. It was out of expectation.
14. What is the mission’s key goal centered on
A. Building a habitable planet for human beings.
B. Exploring signs of supporting life on Europa.
C. Figuring out how much water Europa contains.
D. Repairing transistors on the Europa Clipper spacecraft.
15. Where is this text most likely from
A. A dairy. B. A newspaper. C. A brochure. D. A guidebook.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
Let’s explore three ways to make, keep and deepen friendships in our life.
Be flexible, forgiving and honest. 16 And people’s relevant ability changes throughout life. Kids make friends easily because they have tons of free time. Grown-ups are busy with work, kids and other things, so it’s not that easy. Often times, hurtful behaviour starts off with a small thing that you forgive quickly. Be honest when communicating with friends. 17 If you’re a mom with small kids, it’s very likely that another mom will not only understand you easily but have the same friendship expectations and dedication(奉献) as you.
Be a good listener. Do you feel nervous when you meet new people 18 Try listening. When someone is talking, give them your full attention. When in doubt, ask questions. Expressing interest in the everyday details of another person’s life goes a long way. People love to be heard. Your interest signals that you believe someone matters. Asking questions works especially well with a quieter person. 19
20 A good friend says, “I’m here for you whether you succeed or fail.” A really good friend means it. Showing kindness and support strengthens your bond with others and makes them feel comfortable around you. A seed of generosity to people who need one can grow into friendships that bless you too.
A. Do you wonder what to say to strangers
B. A good friend is always there to support you.
C. Would you like to know your friends’ hobbies
D. Not everyone has the same ability for friendship.
E. Being modest and humorous helps find more friends.
F. Look for friends who share your emotional needs and abilities.
G. The questions can take the conversation forward and leave room for the person to speak.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a small town surrounded by rolling hills, there was a boy named Peter. His family was not rich, and his parents worked long hours each day to provide for their basic needs. Every day, Peter watched his parents return home tired. They loved him deeply, but they hardly had enough extra money for toys or new clothes.
Children’s Day celebration was an annual event at school, eagerly anticipated(盼望) by Peter’s classmates. They would arrive with shiny new toys, colorful clothes, and delicious snacks, chatting excitedly about their gifts. Peter, on the other hand, would come to school empty-handed. As he stood quietly in the corner, his heart ached with a deep sense of longing and loneliness, though he never let his parents know. He understood their struggles, but the classmates’ displays made him feel left out and, at times, ashamed. Some of the less considerate children did not notice Peter’s feelings and continued to discuss their gifts.
Years passing, Peter grew into a hardworking and independent young man. And he was determined to build a better life for himself and his family. He took on various jobs, from delivering groceries to working late nights at a small shop, saving every bit of money he could. Through his efforts, Peter became self-sufficient, able to support not only himself but also contribute to his parents’ household. However, he never forgot his desire for things like toys when he was a child.
His kind and generous nature led him to volunteer at a local orphanage(孤儿院), a place filled with children who had hardly known the joy of receiving gifts on Children’s Day. Seeing the children’s wide eyes and big smiles as they played with worn-out toys reminded him of his own childhood.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Determined to make a difference, Peter started planning a special celebration for the upcoming Children’s Day. After the celebration, Peter brought out carefully wrapped gifts.

参考范文:
Determined to make a difference, Peter started planning a special celebration for the upcoming Children’s Day. He spent weeks preparing, using the money he had saved from his various jobs to buy toys, clothes and snacks. He also reached out to his friends and the community, asking them to contribute anything they could to make the Children’s Day of children in orphanage special. As the day drew closer, Peter decorated the orphanage with colorful balloons, wanting to create a joyful atmosphere that the children would remember for years to come. When Children’s Day finally arrived, the orphanage was filled with laughter and cheers as the children played games, enjoyed delicious treats, and experienced the warmth of a celebration for the first time.
After the celebration, Peter brought out carefully wrapped gifts. The children’s eyes lit up with joy as he handed each of them a present. Watching the happiness on their faces, Peter felt a deep sense of fulfilment. He had transformed his childhood feeling into an opportunity to bring joy to others. As he looked around at the smiling faces, he realized that this was not just a gift for the children, but also a healing moment for himself. Peter knew that this would be the first one of many Children’s Day celebrations he would organize, ensuring that no child in the orphanage would ever feel left out again.
