Amazing National Parks You Can’t Miss
Vatnajokull National Park
As the largest national park in Europe，this park in Iceland is characterized by amazing glacial
ice，impressive waterfalls，deep valleys，and still-active volcanoes．Visitors can explore the park
every day of the year，and there are guided hikes，ice walks，guided skiing trips，ice climbing，
snowmobiling，and even sailing trips between the icebergs on the surrounding lake．
Plitvice National Park
A total of 16 lakes are found within Croatia’s extraordinary Plitvice National Park，including
two sections of 12 upper lakes and four lower lakes．Depending on the angle of the sun and the
minerals within the water，the lakes change from blue to green and everything in between．Keep
an eye out for wildlife，such as European brown bears，wolves and wild cats．Bird watchers will
be amazed here with over 126 species of birds recorded in the park．
Ranthambore National Park
Located in the Sawai Madhopur district of south-eastern Rajasthan in India， this park is
famous for its royal Bengal tigers．It’s one of the only parks in the region where you can spot these
big cats in their natural habitat．The best sightings are between November and May．When you
aren’t watching wildlife，there are ancient ruins to be found in the park，including a historic fortress
（堡垒）overlooking the jungle．
Kakadu National Park
Kakadu National Park，the largest national park in Australia，is a fantastic place to lose
yourself in the nature-based activities and appealing aborigina（l 土著的）culture．Among the coastal
wetlands，woodlands，and wilderness，there’s a wealth of exceptional wildlife．Fishing enthusiasts
can enjoy fishing，and those passionate about bird watching will be impressed by millions of birds
calling the park home．Explore aboriginal rock art sites in the park，such as Ubirr and Nourlangie
Rock that date back to hundreds and even thousands of years ago．

Picture books have entertained young children since the first one was published in 1658 and
illustrations help make the stories come alive．Tactile books that add touch to illustrations bring the
joy of picture books to children who are visually impaired（受损的）．
These tactile books are created by the Living Paintings organization to include the sense of
touch for children who frequently cannot do the same activities as those sighted kids．With 20，000
children in the UK experiencing vision loss，these books called Touch to See can transform lives．
Living Paintings，a charity in the UK that has been around for more than 35 years，has a clear
mission：to provide access to their hand-crafted adapted tactile hooks to families and schools for no
fees．
Volunteers of the organization have recently become popular on social media when a series of
videos that featured how the books were made amassed 6．7 million views．Volunteer Len Webb，
88，who is currently working on the underwater creatures that are illustrated in Julia Donaldson’s
picture book，Tiddler，said，“I’m really not used to being in the spotlight and I never expected that
I’d be getting all these lovely messages from people around the world，but it’s so nice to see the
work of the charity getting all this recognition．Volunteering at Living Paintings is a nice thing to
do．”
Andy and Laura Baghurst，a family who borrows books from the Living Paintings free
library，have three boys，two of whom were diagnosed with Aniridia shortly after birth，just like
their father．While 20／20 vision is the norm，people with this condition see between 3／60 to
6／60．
Laura Baghurst said，“One of my early concerns with Daniel was how he would access books．
Learning a way of doing things from his father，Joshua has grown up loving Julia Donaldson and
other books and having a great experience with them．Luckily，Daniel，who is now four years old，
can fully experience books with the help of the Living Paintings postal library．”
24．Why are the 20，000 children in the UK mentioned in paragraph 2？
A．To call on Living Paintings to donate more books．
B．To highlight the significance of the tactile books．
C．To show the country’s insufficient book resources．
D．To prove the necessity of protecting kids’ eyesight．
25．How does Len Webb feel according to his words
A．He is eager to be in the spotlight．
B．He is afraid of interacting with kids．
C．He is proud of the charity he works for．
D．He is worried about online comments．
26．What can be known about the Baghurst family
A．Laura is a volunteer at the postal library．
B．Andy has recovered from a vision problem．
C．Daniel benefits from the organization’s books．
D．Joshua has grown up with tactile picture books．
27．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A．Introducing a Much Brighter World to the Blind
B．Adapting Children’s Picture Books for More Profit
C．Encouraging Blind People to Read More in Libraries
D．Allowing Visually Impaired Kids to Access Picture Books
C
A recent study explores the health risks associated with volatile organic compounds（VOCs）
（挥发性有机化合物）released from plastic water bottles when they are exposed to sunlight．The
research thoroughly investigated the types and toxicity（ 毒 性 ） of VOCs released under solar
irradiation，highlighting the importance of improved storage methods to guarantee the safety of
drinking water．
Plastic water bottles are ubiquitous due to their convenience，yet they have potential risks．
Sunlight exposure can lead these containers to degrade and generate VOCs，which are potentially
harmful to human health．The fast-expanding bottled water market underscores the urgency for
safer alternatives．In response to these concerns，there is a pressing need for in-depth research into
more secure materials and production methods for water containers．
The research analyzed the VOCs released from six types of plastic water bottles subjected to
sunlight．Results showed that all tested bottles produced a complex mixture of alkanes，alkenes，
alcohols，aldehydes，and acids，with significant variations in VOC composition and concentration
among the bottles．Notably，highly toxic VOCs were identified，highlighting serious health risks．
Exposure to sunlight for a longer time indicated an increased concentration of VOCs，pointing to a
growing risk．
Dr．Huase Ou，the lead researcher，remarked，“Our findings provide convincing evidence that
plastic bottles，when exposed to sunlight，can release toxic compounds that pose health risks．
However，the scenes where bottled water is exposed to sunlight are not rare．Consumers need to
be aware of the environments where bottled water is likely to be exposed to sunlight for longer
periods．”
This study carries significant implications for public health and safety regulations．
Understanding the conditions under which these VOCs are released can guide the improvement of
processing practices and material selection for bottled water containers．Furthermore，it underlines
the need for enhanced consumer awareness and stricter industry regulations to reduce exposure to these potentially harmful compounds．
28．What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in paragraph 2 most probably mean
A．Inexpensive． B．Conventional．
C．Widespread． D．Adjustable．
29．What did the research find
A．Not all tested plastic bottles produced harmful VOCs．
B．Production methods for bottled water were unsustainable．
C．The time of exposure to sunlight wasn’t a contributing factor．
D．VOCs released from different materials of water bottles varied．
30．What does Dr．Huase Ou mean
A．The safety of bottled water is concerning．
B．Consumers lack awareness of food safety．
C．Research findings are far from convincing．
D．Plastic bottles can’t avoid exposure to sunlight．
31．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The impact of toxic VOCs． B．Joint efforts to cut plastic bottles．
C．Tips on improving public health． D．The value of the study．
D
In response to the insightful cover story—“A potent medicine：In matters of pain and trust，
empathy（共情）may make all the difference”—published in the Healio Rheumatology in January，
I would like to highlight the key data on empathy．Research over the past 25 years has shown that
medical students tend to show less empathy，which can negatively impact the bond of trust between
physicians and patients．
Even though medical schools know this occurs，little has been done to teach students effective
empathic communication skills，while helping them understand how to take control over an undue
empathic response to an emotionally charged patient encounter．
The decline in medical students’ empathic communication skills partly results from the use of
smartphones—texting and social media sites steal the time spent interacting with others face to
face．
For example，acting as a standardized patient，I have seen firsthand the inability of most
medical students to express empathy during the observed structured clinical examinations．In many
of the standardized cases，there is a family member，usually a parent，who has passed away．When
the students hear this during the patient history of the encounter，almost every one of them gives the
concrete，memorized answer of “I’m sorry to hear that”，with many of the students not even making
eye contact as they write their chart notes．As the patient，I do not feel their sincerity．
Thus，they are not making an empathic connection with me．
In my notes back to the students，I indicate that their empathic answers are not going to be
enough to form a bond of trust or comfort their patients． Fortunately， the ability to express
sufficient proper empathy can be taught．
Therefore，it requires all medical schools to increase their efforts to inform and teach students
about the importance of building an empathic bond of trust with their patients．This is especially
true of new medical schools that are designing their lessons，where the administration can devote
enough time to the empathic aspect of communication skills in the lecturing and clinical training．
32．What does the word “this” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The decline of empathy from medical students．
B．The influence of empathy on medical schools．
C．The control over emotionally charged patients．
D．The trust between physicians and patients．
33．What is a cause of medical students’ weaker empathic communication skills
A．The limited use of smartphones．
B．Decreased face-to-face human contact．
C．Their unwillingness to learn at school．
D．Misleading information on social media．
34．What does medical students’ memorized answer suggest in the author’s opinion
A．They feel really sorrowful for patients’ losses．
B．They have no time to comfort their patients．
C．They excel in learning communication skills．
D．They are not good at expressing empathy．
35．What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A．To issue warnings． B．To offer advice．
C．To confirm assumptions． D．To recognize contributions．

余选项。
In 2007，former Microsoft employee Linda Stone noticed something strange happening every
time she sat down to answer emails． 36 ．“I would inhale（吸气）in anticipation，but I wouldn’
t exhale because so many emails would be streaming in，” Stone said in an interview．
37 ．She asked dozens of friends and coworkers to sit at her computer answering emails
while she monitored their pulse and heart rate variability．Of those participants，80％ had what
Stone coined “email or screen apnea”— shallow or suspended breathing while working on a
screen．
“ 38 ，” said science journalist James Nestor，the author of the bestselling book Breath：
The New Science of a Lost Art， which records his investigation into the power of breath． He
explained that humans have lost touch with natural breathing patterns as we spend much of the day
hunched（弓身）over our screens and devices．“If you are hunched over，you can’t take that soft，
slow，deep breath，”Nestor said．
Breathing properly has enormous positive impacts on our health and well-being． Slow
breathing lowers our stress levels，increases focus，regulates our emotions and even helps us make
better decisions． 39 ．
Nestor suggests the simple exercise of breathing in through your nose for five to six seconds
and out through your nose for five to six seconds．“As you inhale，you feel that slight expansion of
that abdominal（腹部的）region，and then as you continue inhaling，try to lift that breath up to
your chest area，” Nestor said．“Breathe this way for two minutes a day，and that’s going to make a
difference．” Stone found that learning an instrument helped her maintain good posture and
breathing． 40 ．She also took ballroom dancing lessons，which she said had a similar effect．
A．She kept holding her breath
B．These tasks resulted in shallow chest breathing
C．She found few people around her had breathing problems
D．Stone wondered how common this was and set out to investigate
E．Poor breathing is what you see when you look at 90％ of the population
F．This in turn allowed her to form better breathing habits—even while in front of a screen
G．Luckily，Nestor and Stone feel confident that it’s possible to retrain our body to breathe
well

The morning sun shone through tree leaves，showering our hiking group of four with golden
light．Lily adjusted her oversized blue backpack．“Let me check the supplies again，” she insisted．
The rest of us laughed as she opened her heavy backpack，which was filled with a map，some
pieces of clean cloth，bottled water，and even a rope．Ignoring our laughter，Lily continued，“I
have saved the park’s rescue number as well just in case．Remember Mr．Chen’s safety lecture
He said every hiker should … ”
“Should enjoy the view!” I interrupted， swinging my nearly empty backpack onto one
shoulder． The spring air carried the good smell of beautiful flowers， making warnings about
potential risks seem unnecessary．The other two friends only packed snacks while I brought only a
bottle of water，a phone and a pair of sunglasses．Lily looked at my light load，but I just put on
my sunglasses and started to hike．
As we went up，rocky steps gave way to uneven dirt paths．Lily paused frequently to look at
her map，her finger tracing our route．“There’s a steep（陡峭的）section ahead，” she warned，but
I was already rushing ahead，eager to reach viewing spots quickly．They were left behind as I raced
ahead．
At one viewing spot，the wind rushed through my hair as I stood on a rock．I turned round to
wave excitedly at the distant figures below．However，suddenly I slipped off the rock．Small rocks
fell into the empty space as I grabbed wildly at nothing．When I was stopped by a rock，I found
something terrible—my jeans were torn open，revealing a deep bleeding cut on my left leg．Soon I
realized I was trapped on a small flat area of the rock，with no way to move up or down．The wind
carried panicked shouts from my friends still far away．I attempted to call them with my phone，
only to find it was broken． 注意：1．续写词数应为 150 个左右；

Amazing National Parks You Can’t Miss
Vatnajokull National Park
As the largest national park in Europe，this park in Iceland is characterized by amazing glacial
ice，impressive waterfalls，deep valleys，and still-active volcanoes．Visitors can explore the park
every day of the year，and there are guided hikes，ice walks，guided skiing trips，ice climbing，
snowmobiling，and even sailing trips between the icebergs on the surrounding lake．
Plitvice National Park
A total of 16 lakes are found within Croatia’s extraordinary Plitvice National Park，including
two sections of 12 upper lakes and four lower lakes．Depending on the angle of the sun and the
minerals within the water，the lakes change from blue to green and everything in between．Keep
an eye out for wildlife，such as European brown bears，wolves and wild cats．Bird watchers will
be amazed here with over 126 species of birds recorded in the park．
Ranthambore National Park
Located in the Sawai Madhopur district of south-eastern Rajasthan in India， this park is
famous for its royal Bengal tigers．It’s one of the only parks in the region where you can spot these
big cats in their natural habitat．The best sightings are between November and May．When you
aren’t watching wildlife，there are ancient ruins to be found in the park，including a historic fortress
（堡垒）overlooking the jungle．
Kakadu National Park
Kakadu National Park，the largest national park in Australia，is a fantastic place to lose
yourself in the nature-based activities and appealing aborigina（l 土著的）culture．Among the coastal
wetlands，woodlands，and wilderness，there’s a wealth of exceptional wildlife．Fishing enthusiasts

Picture books have entertained young children since the first one was published in 1658 and
illustrations help make the stories come alive．Tactile books that add touch to illustrations bring the
joy of picture books to children who are visually impaired（受损的）．
These tactile books are created by the Living Paintings organization to include the sense of
touch for children who frequently cannot do the same activities as those sighted kids．With 20，000
children in the UK experiencing vision loss，these books called Touch to See can transform lives．
Living Paintings，a charity in the UK that has been around for more than 35 years，has a clear
mission：to provide access to their hand-crafted adapted tactile hooks to families and schools for no
fees．
Volunteers of the organization have recently become popular on social media when a series of
videos that featured how the books were made amassed 6．7 million views．Volunteer Len Webb，
88，who is currently working on the underwater creatures that are illustrated in Julia Donaldson’s
picture book，Tiddler，said，“I’m really not used to being in the spotlight and I never expected that
I’d be getting all these lovely messages from people around the world，but it’s so nice to see the
work of the charity getting all this recognition．Volunteering at Living Paintings is a nice thing to
do．”
Andy and Laura Baghurst，a family who borrows books from the Living Paintings free
library，have three boys，two of whom were diagnosed with Aniridia shortly after birth，just like
their father．While 20／20 vision is the norm，people with this condition see between 3／60 to
6／60．
Laura Baghurst said，“One of my early concerns with Daniel was how he would access books．
Learning a way of doing things from his father，Joshua has grown up loving Julia Donaldson and
other books and having a great experience with them．Luckily，Daniel，who is now four years old，
can fully experience books with the help of the Living Paintings postal library．”
24．Why are the 20，000 children in the UK mentioned in paragraph 2？
A．To call on Living Paintings to donate more books．
B．To highlight the significance of the tactile books．
C．To show the country’s insufficient book resources．

C
A recent study explores the health risks associated with volatile organic compounds（VOCs）
（挥发性有机化合物）released from plastic water bottles when they are exposed to sunlight．The
research thoroughly investigated the types and toxicity（ 毒 性 ） of VOCs released under solar
irradiation，highlighting the importance of improved storage methods to guarantee the safety of
drinking water．
Plastic water bottles are ubiquitous due to their convenience，yet they have potential risks．
Sunlight exposure can lead these containers to degrade and generate VOCs，which are potentially
harmful to human health．The fast-expanding bottled water market underscores the urgency for
safer alternatives．In response to these concerns，there is a pressing need for in-depth research into
more secure materials and production methods for water containers．
The research analyzed the VOCs released from six types of plastic water bottles subjected to
sunlight．Results showed that all tested bottles produced a complex mixture of alkanes，alkenes，
alcohols，aldehydes，and acids，with significant variations in VOC composition and concentration
among the bottles．Notably，highly toxic VOCs were identified，highlighting serious health risks．
Exposure to sunlight for a longer time indicated an increased concentration of VOCs，pointing to a
growing risk．
Dr．Huase Ou，the lead researcher，remarked，“Our findings provide convincing evidence that
plastic bottles，when exposed to sunlight，can release toxic compounds that pose health risks．
However，the scenes where bottled water is exposed to sunlight are not rare．Consumers need to
be aware of the environments where bottled water is likely to be exposed to sunlight for longer
periods．”
This study carries significant implications for public health and safety regulations．
Understanding the conditions under which these VOCs are released can guide the improvement of
processing practices and material selection for bottled water containers．Furthermore，it underlines
the need for enhanced consumer awareness and stricter industry regulations to reduce exposure to these potentially harmful compounds．
28．What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in paragraph 2 most probably mean
A．Inexpensive． B．Conventional．
C．Widespread． D．Adjustable．
29．What did the research find
A．Not all tested plastic bottles produced harmful VOCs．
B．Production methods for bottled water were unsustainable．
C．The time of exposure to sunlight wasn’t a contributing factor．
D．VOCs released from different materials of water bottles varied．
30．What does Dr．Huase Ou mean
A．The safety of bottled water is concerning．
B．Consumers lack awareness of food safety．
C．Research findings are far from convincing．
D．Plastic bottles can’t avoid exposure to sunlight．
31．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The impact of toxic VOCs． B．Joint efforts to cut plastic bottles．
C．Tips on improving public health． D．The value of the study．
D
In response to the insightful cover story—“A potent medicine：In matters of pain and trust，
empathy（共情）may make all the difference”—published in the Healio Rheumatology in January，
I would like to highlight the key data on empathy．Research over the past 25 years has shown that
medical students tend to show less empathy，which can negatively impact the bond of trust between
physicians and patients．
Even though medical schools know this occurs，little has been done to teach students effective
empathic communication skills，while helping them understand how to take control over an undue
empathic response to an emotionally charged patient encounter．
The decline in medical students’ empathic communication skills partly results from the use of
smartphones—texting and social media sites steal the time spent interacting with others face to
face．
For example，acting as a standardized patient，I have seen firsthand the inability of most
medical students to express empathy during the observed structured clinical examinations．In many
of the standardized cases，there is a family member，usually a parent，who has passed away．When
the students hear this during the patient history of the encounter，almost every one of them gives the
concrete，memorized answer of “I’m sorry to hear that”，with many of the students not even making
eye contact as they write their chart notes．As the patient，I do not feel their sincerity．
Thus，they are not making an empathic connection with me．
In my notes back to the students，I indicate that their empathic answers are not going to be
enough to form a bond of trust or comfort their patients． Fortunately， the ability to express
sufficient proper empathy can be taught．
Therefore，it requires all medical schools to increase their efforts to inform and teach students
about the importance of building an empathic bond of trust with their patients．This is especially
true of new medical schools that are designing their lessons，where the administration can devote
enough time to the empathic aspect of communication skills in the lecturing and clinical training．
32．What does the word “this” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The decline of empathy from medical students．
B．The influence of empathy on medical schools．
C．The control over emotionally charged patients．
D．The trust between physicians and patients．
33．What is a cause of medical students’ weaker empathic communication skills
A．The limited use of smartphones．
B．Decreased face-to-face human contact．
C．Their unwillingness to learn at school．
D．Misleading information on social media．
34．What does medical students’ memorized answer suggest in the author’s opinion
A．They feel really sorrowful for patients’ losses．
B．They have no time to comfort their patients．
C．They excel in learning communication skills．
D．They are not good at expressing empathy．
35．What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A．To issue warnings． B．To offer advice．
C．To confirm assumptions． D．To recognize contributions．

In 2007，former Microsoft employee Linda Stone noticed something strange happening every
time she sat down to answer emails． 36 ．“I would inhale（吸气）in anticipation，but I wouldn’
t exhale because so many emails would be streaming in，” Stone said in an interview．
37 ．She asked dozens of friends and coworkers to sit at her computer answering emails
while she monitored their pulse and heart rate variability．Of those participants，80％ had what
Stone coined “email or screen apnea”— shallow or suspended breathing while working on a
screen．
“ 38 ，” said science journalist James Nestor，the author of the bestselling book Breath：
The New Science of a Lost Art， which records his investigation into the power of breath． He
explained that humans have lost touch with natural breathing patterns as we spend much of the day
hunched（弓身）over our screens and devices．“If you are hunched over，you can’t take that soft，
slow，deep breath，”Nestor said．
Breathing properly has enormous positive impacts on our health and well-being． Slow
breathing lowers our stress levels，increases focus，regulates our emotions and even helps us make
better decisions． 39 ．
Nestor suggests the simple exercise of breathing in through your nose for five to six seconds
and out through your nose for five to six seconds．“As you inhale，you feel that slight expansion of
that abdominal（腹部的）region，and then as you continue inhaling，try to lift that breath up to
your chest area，” Nestor said．“Breathe this way for two minutes a day，and that’s going to make a
difference．” Stone found that learning an instrument helped her maintain good posture and
breathing． 40 ．She also took ballroom dancing lessons，which she said had a similar effect．
A．She kept holding her breath
B．These tasks resulted in shallow chest breathing
C．She found few people around her had breathing problems
D．Stone wondered how common this was and set out to investigate
E．Poor breathing is what you see when you look at 90％ of the population
F．This in turn allowed her to form better breathing habits—even while in front of a screen
G．Luckily，Nestor and Stone feel confident that it’s possible to retrain our body to breathe
well

The morning sun shone through tree leaves，showering our hiking group of four with golden
light．Lily adjusted her oversized blue backpack．“Let me check the supplies again，” she insisted．
The rest of us laughed as she opened her heavy backpack，which was filled with a map，some
pieces of clean cloth，bottled water，and even a rope．Ignoring our laughter，Lily continued，“I
have saved the park’s rescue number as well just in case．Remember Mr．Chen’s safety lecture
He said every hiker should … ”
“Should enjoy the view!” I interrupted， swinging my nearly empty backpack onto one
shoulder． The spring air carried the good smell of beautiful flowers， making warnings about
potential risks seem unnecessary．The other two friends only packed snacks while I brought only a
bottle of water，a phone and a pair of sunglasses．Lily looked at my light load，but I just put on
my sunglasses and started to hike．
As we went up，rocky steps gave way to uneven dirt paths．Lily paused frequently to look at
her map，her finger tracing our route．“There’s a steep（陡峭的）section ahead，” she warned，but
I was already rushing ahead，eager to reach viewing spots quickly．They were left behind as I raced
ahead．
At one viewing spot，the wind rushed through my hair as I stood on a rock．I turned round to
wave excitedly at the distant figures below．However，suddenly I slipped off the rock．Small rocks
fell into the empty space as I grabbed wildly at nothing．When I was stopped by a rock，I found
something terrible—my jeans were torn open，revealing a deep bleeding cut on my left leg．Soon I
realized I was trapped on a small flat area of the rock，with no way to move up or down．The wind
carried panicked shouts from my friends still far away．I attempted to call them with my phone，
only to find it was broken． 注意：1．续写词数应为 150 个左右；
