The autumn leaves crunched under Mia’s boots as she hurried through Maple

Mia’s eyes widened. “Why didn’t you tell me ”
“Same ____22____ you didn’t tell me about your sister, I guess,” Lucy said, “We were always, you

It was a dark autumn night. The old banker was walking up and down his
study and remembering how, one autumn evening fifteen years before, he had
given a party.
There had been many clever men, and they had talked of capital punishment. Among the guests was a
young lawyer, a young man of twenty-five. When asked, he said, “If I have to choose between the death
penalty (死刑 ) and imprisonment (监禁 ) for life, I would certainly choose the second. It’s better to live
somehow than not to live at all.”
The banker struck the table with his fist and shouted at the young man, “It’s not true! I’ll bet you two
million—you wouldn’t stay in a prison even for five years.”
“If you mean it seriously,” said the young man, “I’ll take the bet, but I would stay not five but fifteen
years.”
“Fifteen Done!” cried the banker, “Gentlemen. I stake (下注) two million!”
“Agreed! ▲ ” said the young man. And this wild, senseless bet was carried out!
And now the banker, walking to and from, asked himself, “What is the object of that bet What is the
good of that man’s losing fifteen years of his life and my throwing away two million ” Then he remembered
what followed that evening. It was decided that the young man should spend the years of his imprisonment
under the strictest supervision, in a tiny room in the banker’s house. He shouldn’t be free to go out, to see
human beings, or to hear the human voice. He was only allowed to have some books. The agreement
restricted the young man there exactly fifteen years. The slightest attempt on his part to break the rules—if
only two minutes before the end-the banker wouldn’t pay him the two million.
For the first year, the prisoner suffered from loneliness and hopelessness very seriously. The books he
sent for were love novels, fantastic stories, and so on. In the second year, the prisoner asked only for the
classics. In the fifth year, he didn’t read books. More than once could be be heard crying. In the sixth year,
the prisoner began studying languages, philosophy, and history. In the last two years, the prisoner read a large
number of books. At one time he was busy with the natural sciences, then he would ask for Byron and
Shakespeare.
The old banker remembered all this, and thought, “Tomorrow at twelve o’clock he’ll regain his freedom.
and I should pay him two million. If I do pay him, it’s all over with me.” Fifteen years before, his millions
had been beyond his imagination, now he was in great debt (债务).
“Cursed bet!” cried the old man, “The only way out for me is that the man should die.”
The clock had just struck three. The banker felt his way in the darkness into the tiny room. He struck a
match. Not a person was there! Only a letter! A letter from the prisoner!
“Tomorrow at twelve o’clock I’ll regain my freedom. For fifteen years I have studied hard. Your books
gave me wisdom…To prove to you in action how I despise (MR) all that you live by, I announce that I give
up the two million, which I once dreamed of as paradise (天业) and which now I despise. Therefore I shall go
out from here five minutes before the end of my 15 years as a prisoner, and so break the agreement…”
28. Why was the old banker walking up and down his study at a dark autumn night
A. He couldn’t wait to see the young lawyer.
B. He was too excited about the result of the bet.
C. He was worried that the young man would run away.
D. He feared he would lose a lot of money in the end.
29. Which of the following would be the most suitable for ▲
A. You stake your millions and I stake my freedom! B. You stake your millions and I stake my life!
C. You bet your freedom and I bet my millions! D. You bet your millions and I bet my career!
30. What did the young lawyer most probably understand at last
A. While there is life, there is hope.
B. Time is money, but money cannot buy time.
C. Wisdom in the mind is better than money in the hand.
D. He who sees through life and death will meet with most success.
C
After escaping Long John Silver, I felt a mix of relief and fear. Though I
had gotten away, I knew he was still hiding somewhere on the island. While
searching for a safer spot, I heard voices nearby—Silver and a sailor named
Tom.
“I want you with me! ” Silver shouted. “When we have the treasure,
there’s gold for you too!” “Never!” cried Tom. “I’m not a murderer. You’re
guilty, all of you! ” Sadly, these were the last words of Tom. It was a gunshot, Silver’s gun.
My heart raced as I ran deeper into the forest, not caring which direction I took. Suddenly, a figure
moved between the trees. Was it a wild animal A pirate Even Silver himself appeared less terrible to me
now.
The shadow crept closer. “Who are you ” I whispered, stepping back. “Ben Gunn,” the man replied
softly. His clothes were tom, and his eyes looked haunted. “I’ve been alone here for three years. Who are you
“Jim Hawkins,” I answered.
Ben pointed shakily toward the distant ship offshore. “Is that Captain Flint’s ship ” he asked, his voice
trembling.
“No. Flint is dead,” I explained. “But there are some of his old hands abroad.” like Silver.”
“Not a man. . . with one. . . leg ” Ben asked in a tremulous voice, with his pale face and scared eyes.
“You mean Silver He once worked as a cook on the ship.” I added. “Now, he is also on the island to
find Flint’s treasure. He wants to kill anyone in their way and take over the ship!”
Ben nodded slowly. “I was on Flint’s ship when he buried the treasure. Six sailors helped him dig, but
only Flint returned alive. No one knows how he made it, not a man except him could make out. It was a battle,
a murder and a sudden death—him against six.” His words sent a chill down my spine.
Before I could ask more, loud explosions shook the island. Smoke rose near the shore—the pirates were
fighting! Ben grabbed my arm. “We must hide! Silver won’t stop until he gets what he wants.”
Together, we hurried into the forest, unsure if we’d ever escape the island—or Silver’s greed.
31. According to the dialogue between Silver and Tom, we can infer Silver was ________.
A. cruel B. generous C. honest D. silly
32. Which of the following is the correct order of the plot according to the passage

33. Which of the following is TURE according to the passage

C. Ben Gunn didn’t know Silver before. D. Jim was left on the island for three years.
D
A new study in Nature shows sea otters (海獭) returning to their home
ground in Central California has helped slow down erosion (侵蚀) of the
area’s stream banks and marsh (沼泽) edges by up to 90%.
Findings show that areas with large otter populations have less
erosion, mainly because the sea otters like eating crabs so much. “It would
cost tens of millions of dollars for humans to rebuild these stream banks and restore these marshes. The otters
are stabilizing (稳定) them for free, in exchange for a big all-you-can-eat crab meal,” said biology professor
Brian Silliman, at Duke University. “Remodeling a coastline is usually something only strong physical forces,
like powerful storms or huge tidal flow change, can do,” he continued, “so it begs a question: Could similar
results be achieved in other environments around the world ”
Like many California river mouths, Elkhorn once was home ground for otters, which need to eat around
20 to 25 pounds of food every day, with crabs being one of their favourite meals. But after fur traders hunted
the local otter population nearly to extinction (灭绝), the number of crabs increased rapidly over the next
century.
“Crabs eat salt marsh roots, dig into salt marsh soil, and over time can cause a salt marsh to wear away
and disappear. This had been happening at Elkhorn for years until sea otters returned in the mid-1980s,” said
the lead author of the study, Brent Hughes. “Today, years after the otters returned, marshes and stream banks
became more stable.”
① To discover what role sea otters were playing in all this, the researchers carried on surveys across 13
tidal streams and small field experiments at five locations around the river mouth. ②They lasted over a
six-year period. ③The information, collected on the ground, confirmed that the places with large populations
of otters, erosion had slowed by the study’s end. ④ “The return of the sea otters didn’t completely fix the
losses, but it did slow them down so that these places could become stable again, even with all the other
problems,” Huges said.
Angelini, another member of the research team, saw hope in this new method. “All these challenges, like
sea level rise and storms, seem difficult to deal with,” she said. “But this study shows us that if we really
understand the ecosystem and know what tools to use, we can help make these systems healthier and more
stable. And after all these years, we now see these amazing results. It’s a great story.”
34. What does Brent Hughes think of bringing back sea otters to the landscape like Elkhorn
A. Resultful. B. Expensive. C. Creative. D. Harmful.
35. The following sentence would best be placed at ________.
Sea otters were not included in some test places but allowed to be used in others.
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
36. What can we learn from the passage
A. Long-term research can help us protect nature.
B. A lot of unlawful hunting once happened in California.
C. Large populations of crabs are the main cause of the erosion.
D. Nature protection depends on the reintroduction of the sea otters.
37. The passage mainly wants to __________.
A. explain the purpose of the study B. describe the difficulty of the study
C. discuss the limitation of the study D. introduce the discovery of the study

Andy couldn’t sleep. His roommates snored (打鼾) loudly, and there were always the unfamiliar sounds
around. Every night, he tossed and turned, feeling more and more tired. You couldn’t imagine how much he
missed his family, and the quiet nights at home!
One night, after another frustrating attempt to sleep, Andy decided to call home. He dialed his mom’s
