一．阅读理解（共20小题）
1．（2025 九龙坡区模拟） A new study of lunar samples collected by China's Chang' e﹣6 mission has confirmed that the moon was once covered by"magma（岩浆） ocean" in its early stages.This discovery provides important evidence for understanding the moon's origin and evolution（进化）.
The study，led by a team from the China National Space Administration （CNSA），was published in the journal Science.In 2024，Chang' e﹣6 successfully collected1，935.3 grams of lunar material from the far side of the moon，marking the first time humans have obtained samples from this region.
Researchers analyzed basalt，a type of volcanic rock，from the samples and found that the composition of basalt on the far side is similar to that on the near side.The basalt is about 2.82 billion years old，supporting the lunar magma ocean model.This model suggests that the moon was once entirely melted，forming a global magma ocean.As it cooled，lighter minerals rose to form the moon's surface，while heavier minerals sank to form the covering layers.
The study also revealed that the impact that created the South Pole﹣Aitken （SPA）Basin，the moon's largest and oldest basin，may have changed the moon's early layers.Additionally，the lead isotope（同位素） paths in basalt from the far and near sides are different，indicating that different parts of the moon gradually changed and developed into different forms after the magma ocean cooled.
The research team plans to further study the moon's early impact history and hopes to find materials from the moon's layers.Understanding the moon's past can also help scientists learn more about Earth's early history，which must have been connected with the earth's layer activities.
CNSA emphasized its commitment to advancing lunar research and sharing findings with the international community.This study not only deepens our understanding of the moon but also opens new possibilities for exploring the solar system's history.

2．（2025 岳阳模拟） A 2024 UNESCO report reveals teenagers now spend 40% of their social interaction time on short﹣video platforms like TikTok，fundamentally redefining friendship norms.While these platforms provide instant connectivity，psychologists warn of the risk of weakening real﹣world relationships.
Dr.Emma Lopez，a social neuroscientist at Cambridge，explains，"Getting likes on videos causes dopamine（多巴胺） levels to increase，a physical change similar to eating sweets.However，just as too much sugar harms health，relying only on online interactions can weaken real friendships."Her research shows that 25% of teens who receive frequent online pralse later feel lonelier than those with balanced online﹣offline social lives.These teens also demonstrate reduced persistence in resolving offline conflicts.
The way teens communicate is also shifting.60% of adolescents now favor exchanging 15﹣second video clips over ongoing conversations.Kenji Yamamoto，Tokyo University sociologist，describes this as "sending postcards instead of letters"—entertaining yet emotionally shallow.Research confirms such brief exchanges contain 50% fewer expressions of care than traditional text messages."We face a paradox here：more communication，less depth，"he notes.
To counteract this constant disturbance，some educators suggest carrying out "digital minimalism"﹣a philosophy that encourages intentionally reducing screen time.However，students often struggle with persistent efforts in practicing such self﹣discipline."At first，students may be excited enough to shut down their social media accounts for a short time.However，if they cannot keep making efforts consistently，most will return to their old habits in the end.This repeated pattern of 'trying to resist but failing again' leaves them feeling even more discouraged."says tech ethicist Dr.Maria Gonzalez.
Educational experts also propose other balanced approaches.Schools worldwide are testing solutions.In Sweden，classrooms adopting"digital balance" strategies report 31% better student focus.Meanwhile，UCLA's"Analog Fridays"initiative，where classrooms ban digital devices every Friday and encourage face﹣to﹣face interactions，has reduced student anxiety levels by 19%.As Dr.Gonzalez concludes，"The challenge isn't rejecting technology，but rebuilding spaces for undivided human attention."
（1）What is psychologists' concern on teenagers using short﹣video platforms？ 　 　
A.It can harm their mental health.
B.It can damage their off﹣line relationships.
C.It can affect their academic performance.
D.It can weaken their conflict﹣solving abilities.
（2）Why does Kenji Yamamoto describe exchanging video clips as"sending postcards"？ 　 　
A.Both are favored by teenagers.
B.Both bring great joy to receivers.
C.Both are enjoyable but lack depth.
D.Both show more care than text messages.
（3）What does the underlined word"counteract"in paragraph 4 mean？ 　 　
A.Create.
B.Increase.
C.Prevent.
D.ignore.
（4）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？ 　 　
A.Technology rejection is the ultimate solution.
B.Schools should completely ban digital devices.
C.Resisting digital disturbance is impossible for students.
D.Balancing digital and real﹣world interactions is achievable.
3．（2025 渝中区校级二模） Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson was thrilled —and surprised.
When he came to New York to study photography five years ago，he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa，past and present，in the city's libraries，galleries and museums.Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home.
That led to an idea：create a library of photobooks in Ghana，which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent.
This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra，Ghana's capital.Dikan means "take the lead" in the Akan language.
To create the center，Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana.He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side，engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries，some of whom donated hundreds of materials.He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books，using Uber and U﹣Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city.
He managed to amass more than 30，000 volumes—mainly about photography filmmaking，but also issues of publications like National Geographic dating back to the early 1940s.Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator，Brandon Stanton，who started aGoFundMe that raised over＄1.2 million for the founding of Dikan.
In December 2022，the Dikan Center was opened.In a former residence that was renovated（翻新） to house the center，anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they' d like.
Michael Itkoff，a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start，says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today's world，which is often focused on the volume and speed of images available online. "The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down—and I would say elegant —experience of visuals，" says Itkoff.
（1）What is Ninson's purpose of creating the Dikan Center？　 　
A.To bring the African story home.
B.To change people's attitude to Africa.

（2）What does paragraph 5 mainly focus on？　 　
A.Ninson's good taste in books.
B.The assistance Ninson has received.
C.Efforts made in creating Dikan Center.
D.Wide sources of books in Dikan Center.
（3）How would Itkoff describe the experience of reading photobooks？　 　
A.An ideal tool for art education.
B.An escape from a fast﹣paced life.
C.A dive into the richness of stories.
D.A beautiful encounter with visuals.
（4）What is the text mainly about？　 　
A.The realization of a big dream.
B.The influence of a social trend.
C.The development of photobooks.
D.The growth of a genius photographer.
4．（2025 武功县校级二模） Fancy some steamed buns or sandwiches to beat the hunger pangs when hiking on the Great Wall？
Gone are the days of a 50﹣minute trek—now，drones have got us covered，slashing the journey to a mere 5 minutes.
Operating in the South Nine Towers area of Badaling，the service promises delivery by drones within five to 15 minutes.
The South Nine Towers area，which opened to the public at the end of last year，is a less commercialized，rugged section of the Great Wall.It preserves the Wall's historical charm while accommodating activities such as hiking and photography.
At present，the starting delivery fee of this service is 15 yuan，and the drone delivery fee is just 4 yuan，the same as regular deliveries.The service will take orders from 10 a.m.to 4 p.m.，after which the drones will be tasked with carrying trash to recycling stations.After the end of daily operation hours，the unmanned aerial vehicle will transform from a "mountain worker" to a "sanitation worker" to assist the scenic area operation and maintenance personnel to transport nearby waste to the designated recycling location，relieving the daily transportation pressure of staff in the hot summer.
The drones still need human help.Once an order is received，a worker will pick it up from a nearby store and bring it to the hotel rooftop，where it will be weighed and packaged.An operator then attaches the package to the drone，which will fly on autopilot to the watchtower，where another worker waits to receive it.
It's the capital's first drone service，adding to a fast﹣growing drone delivery business across China，which is the world's largest manufacturer and exporter of civilian consumer drones.The industry has brought convenience to people living in both cities and hard﹣to﹣reach rural areas.
In addition to boosting rural logistics，drones are also increasingly used to fetch quick takeout for people living in China's metropolises.
（1）When could people order takeout food on the Great Wall？ 　 　
A.At the end of 2023.
B.In the spring of 2023.
C.In April 2024.
D.In July 2024.
（2）How much does it cost to order takeout at least once？ 　 　
A.Four yuan.
B.Fifteen yuan.
C.Nineteen yuan.
D.No information in the text.
（3）What information can we learn from the passage？ 　 　
A.You can place an order at any time.
B.Drone delivery doesn't require human help.
C.Drone deliveries are only available in major Chinese cities.
D.The packaged food is delivered to the watchtower，where it is then picked up by another worker and delivered to consumers.
5．（2025 武功县校级二模） As students of all ages in China have started their summer vacation， "parent﹣child" travel welcomes its peak season，with museums being one of tourists' top choices.Tickets that have been released so far for many popular museums，including the Palace Museum in Beijing，and the Nanjing Museum in Nanjing，have all been fully booked，according to a report by the on Tuesday.
Data from online platforms Meituan and Dianping show that the search popularity of "museum" has increased by 61 percent month﹣on﹣month since June，with "Shaanxi History Museum"， "Shanghai Museum" and "National Museum of China" as related hot search phrases.The top five cities searched are Xi' an，Beijing，Shanghai，Chengdu and Wuhan，with the highest proportion of search users aged 30 to 35.
According to online travel platform Ctrip，as of July 3，the number of museum orders during summer vacation increased by more than 90 percent on a yearly basis. "Early bird tickets" for some exhibitions have also sold out early.For example，the 200，000 early bird tickets for The Civilization of Ancient Egypt exhibition at the Shanghai Museum，which went on sale on May 20，have been sold out by June 19，said the Shanghai Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism.

6．（2025 武功县校级二模） Thousands of people took to the streets across the United Kingdom on Wednesday to protest against anti﹣immigrant，far﹣right rioting that had flared throughout the previous week.Anti﹣racism protests held placards with words such as "Smash fascism & racism"， "Refugees welcome.Stop the far﹣right" and "Love，not hate." Express their demands in a peaceful manner.According to the British "Independent" statistics，a total of about 25，000 people participated in the peaceful demonstration.
The attack at a children's summer dance class on July 29 has triggered violent anti﹣immigrant riots across the UK，fueled by false social media claims that the suspect was a radical Islamist migrant.The day after the knife attack，thousands of people gathered near British Prime Minister Starmer's Downing Street office in central London.
Far﹣right protests targeted Muslims and the immigrant population in general，gripping the country and resulting in police officers being injured，stores being looted，and hotels housing asylum﹣seekers being stormed.The reality is that the suspect，a British﹣born descendant of Rwandan immigrants，has been charged with murder.However，disinformation quickly spread，and far﹣right elements used the opportunity to launch violent riots，causing widespread social unrest.
The British government and police have stepped up their presence in anticipation of further unrest.London's Metropolitan Police said it was prepared with "all forces，tactics and tools" to protect the capital.
Police sources told Sky News they were aware of more than "100 events and 30 counter protests" planned on Wednesday，with 41 out of 43 police forces in England and Wales expecting activity.More than 6，000 specialist officers have been mobilized in anticipation of potential violence.
On August 6，local time，British Prime Minister Starmer said at a cabinet meeting that the ongoing violence was no longer a protest，but a "violent riot" and those involved in violent acts would quickly face "the full force of the law".After a week of violent anti﹣immigrant and anti﹣Muslim protests in the United Kingdom，the British government blamed social media platforms，particularly Musk's X platform，for stoking tensions.
The government has also vowed to go after not just the rioters，but those who used social media to spread the trouble.In the multiday violence that followed that incident，police made more than 400 arrests and charged 140 people.
Immigration and security issues are long﹣standing social contradictions in Britain，but also reflect the wider concerns of the British people，the riot and anti﹣far﹣right events are the reality of this issue again.How to solve the immigration problem from the source is a chronic disease that has troubled the previous British governments，and it is also a challenge that the new Labour government must deal with immediately.

7．（2025 香坊区校级二模） "My enthusiasm for this job is totally gone，" an Amazon worker recently wrote on Blind，an online forum where employees complain about their employers.All this happened after Andy Jassy，the tech giant's boss，sent a letter that ordered staff back to the office five days a week instead of the previous three days.
Amazon isn't alone to limit remote work.A recent global survey by KPMG，another professional﹣services firm，found that four﹣fifths of bosses expect a return to the office five days a week within three years.The change in some tech，financial and professional﹣services firms is more dramatic.
Ordering a return to the office tends to anger staff.A survey by Gartner，a research firm，found that a fifth of employees would leave their jobs if they were forced back to the office.For some companies，that may be the point.Getting some of them to leave voluntarily would reduce costs，though it also risks losing talented employees.
Many bosses believe having employees in the office leads to better performance.Plenty of studies suggest that remote employees are less productive.There's less evidence，though，that letting staff work from home a couple of days a week has a negative effect on performance.A random trial at an online travel agency by Nick Bloom of Stanford University found no difference in performance between hybrid workers and those who worked entirely from the office.
Bosses may argue that complex tasks，such as designing a user interface，can require a lot of cooperation that may be difficult to perform virtually.Junior employees may also receive less coaching if they interact with others from home.Some bosses argue that this will harm their company's culture，as new employees don't absorb it and old ones forget it.Mr.Jassy wrote that Amazon's culture has been one of the most critical parts of its success，and that it's easier for our teammates to learn，practise，and strengthen it when working together in the office.
For now，investors seem to be withholding judgment.If Mr.Jassy is right，that may soon change.
（1）What did the Amazon worker complain about on Blind？ 　 　
A.The increase in remote work hours.
B.The shift in the company's leadership.
C.The requirement of the five﹣day office work.
D.The lack of opportunities for advancement.
（2）What can be inferred from paragraph 4？ 　 　
A.Office work is always more productive.
B.Hybrid work is the best for all companies.
C.Remote work leads to a lack of enthusiasm.
D.The effect of work mode on productivity isn't clear﹣cut.
（3）What's Jassy's attitude towards ordering employees to return to the office？ 　 　
A.Supportive.
B.Opposed.
C.Reserved.
D.Indifferent.
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？ 　 　
A.Limit Work Days to Promote Productivity.
B.Know Corporate Culture via Remote Work.
C.Obey the Order and Stop Making Complaints.
D.Get Prepared to Go back to the Office to Work.
8．（2025 葫芦岛一模） Chinese startup DeepSeek has sent shock waves through the artificial intelligence world and created a headache for the United States.Its AI assistant overtook Western rival ChatGPT on January 27 to become the top﹣rated free app on Apple's App Store in the U.S.，delivering a trillion （万亿） dollar blow to U.S.tech firms on the stock market.
DeepSeek claims that it trained its models in two months for＄5.6 million and using fewer chips than typical AI models.U.S.—based Open AI was reported to have spent around ＄100 million to develop GPT﹣4.Kristian Hammond，a professor of computer science at Northwestern University，told Newsweek， "If they are telling the truth，DeepSeek will have a significant impact.Nvidia currently is so valuable because everyone thinks that we cannot build AI without them.But DeepSeek demonstrates that we can.Similarly，Open AI has argued that we cannot support their software locally，but DeepSeek，again，demonstrates that we can.And the fact that DeepSeek could be built for less money，less computation and less time and can be run locally on less expensive machines，argues that as everyone was racing towards bigger and bigger，we missed the opportunity to build smarter and smaller."
DeepSeek's success in the U.S.has been attributed to its accessibility，cost﹣effectiveness and performance.However，the rise of DeepSeek has also sparked discussions about AI ethics and workforce adaptation.While some experts urge cautious regulation，others argue that DeepSeek's transparent approach sets a positive precedent （先例） for responsible AI development.
DeepSeek aims to expand its global footprint，with plans to collaborate with educational institutions to nurture AI talent and launch community﹣driven projects to address societal challenges like climate change and resource management.DeepSeek represents a bold step toward an AI﹣augmented future.By balancing innovation with ethical responsibility，it has not only won industry recognition but also inspired confidence in AI's potential to drive meaningful change.As adoption grows，DeepSeek is ready to redefine how industries operate，proving that intelligent technology，when used wisely，can truly transform the world.As CEO Dr.Li& a Wu stated， "Our vision is to make AI a force for universal progress，not just profit."

9．（2025 湖南一模） The video game "Black Myth：Wukong" has been praised as a "masterpiece" by critics and enthusiasts alike，with many boldly predicting that it will be a strong competitor for the famed title of Game of the Year.This game has not only gained great popularity within China but has also captivated international audiences，many of whom may not be familiar with the complexities of the classic Chinese novel "Journey to the West"，from which the game draws its inspiration.Despite this，the game's complex plot presents certain challenges for players who are not good at the slight differences of the source material.
"Black Myth：Wukong" is a proof to the perfect integration of traditional Chinese cultural elements with modern gaming technology.The game beautifully combines Daoist talismans （护身符），Buddhist artifacts，and ancient architectural wonders，creating a visually stunning experience that draws inspiration from iconic landmarks such as the Great Wall and the splendid Mount Huangshan.The Shanxi Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism has cleverly capitalized on the game's popularity by releasing a promotional video that highlights real﹣life locations featured in the game，such as Xiaoxitian and Yuhuang Temple.This has led to a surge of cultural pilgrimages （朝圣） to these historic sites，as fans of the game seek to experience the real﹣world counterparts of the virtual wonders they have explored.
The development team's dedication to authenticity is evident in their careful research in Shanxi，a region that boasts （自夸） 80 percent of China's surviving wooden structures from the Yuan Dynasty and earlier periods.This research has led to an almost exact copy of China's breathtaking landscapes，grand temples，and delicate sculptures inside the game.This remarkable achievement not only serves as a proof to the team's dedication to authenticity but also stands as a powerful cultural export，allowing players from around the globe to experience the richness of Chinese heritage in an immersive （沉浸式的） and interactive manner.
The game's success is a reflection of the growing influence of Chinese culture in the global gaming industry. "Black Myth：Wukong" is not just a game；it is a cultural phenomenon that bridges the gap between traditional Chinese culture and modern gaming，creating an experience that is both educational and entertaining.As the game continues to gain popularity，it is likely to attract even more players who are curious about Chinese mythology and history，further cementing its status as a global cultural icon.

10．（2025 咸阳二模） A recent study published in Nature Medicine has revealed that microplastics and nanoplastics（纳米塑料）（MNPs） accumulate at higher levels in the human brain than in the liver and kidneys.Moreover，individuals diagnosed with dementia（痴呆） had even higher levels of MNPs in their brains.
MNPs，invisible to the naked eye，originate from larger plastic products，animal tissues and the air，with indoor air often containing more MNPs than outdoor air.When breathed in，these tiny particles can travel through the body and accumulate in organs such as the lungs，blood vessels，and bone marrow.
Alarmingly，even larger MNPs can pass through the blood﹣brain barrier and enter the brain.Because the substance breathed in through the nose allows MNPs to reach the olfactory bulb（嗅球），a part of the brain that processes smell，providing a more direct route to the brain.
The study examined 52 human brain，liver，and kidney samples from 2016 and 2024.The result showed that brain and liver samples from 2024 had significantly higher concentrations of MNPs compared to those from 2016.Overall，brain samples contained 7 to 30 times more MNPs than liver and kidney samples.According to the findings，the researchers suggest dramatically increasing concentrations of MNPs in our homes，air and water could be to blame.
The study also found that MNPs levels were 3 to 5 times higher in the brains of individuals with dementia.However，the researchers emphasize that this does not necessarily mean MNPs cause dementia，but it highlights an association that requires further study.Additionally，MNPs can accelerate the spread of stomach cancer cells.
While it is impossible to completely avoid exposure to plastics，Kasteel，a professor of the study，suggests that individuals can make small choices to reduce their exposure.Scientists are also working on solutions to minimize microplastics in the environment through measures such as applying the precautionary principle and developing strategies to lower exposure，potentially preventing certain health risks.
（1）How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed？ 　 　
A.By analyzing causes.
B.By classifying dates.
C.By following orders.
D.By comparing figures.
（2）Which of the following statements about MNPs is incorrect？ 　 　
A.MNPs may be found in marine animals.
B.MNPs can directly enter human's brain.
C.MNPs can seriously result in dementia.
D.MNPs may accelerate stomach cancer.
（3）What is the author's attitude to the accumulation of MNPs in the human brain？ 　 　
A.Dismissive.
B.Optimistic.
C.Supportive.
D.Concerned.
（4）Where is the text most probably taken from？ 　 　
A.A research plan.
B.A science report.
C.A health leaflet.
D.An education paper.
11．（2025 海南州模拟） Early in the morning，the commander of SpaceX's Polaris Dawn mission opened the top hatch （舱门） of a Crew Dragon capsule，and then slowly emerged into space —460 miles above the surface of the Earth.The commander is not a professional astronaut on a government mission；he is a tech billionaire.The feat achieved by him and his crew marks the first﹣ever private spacewalk.
Polaris Dawn，the first of three flights in the Polaris private spaceflight program，aims to test SpaceX's new spacesuits and promote research related to a future mission to Mars.Once the commander emerged from the hatch，he conducted a series of tests designed to evaluate the suit's mobility，thermal （热的） systems and the Dragon mobility aid.After around ten minutes in space，he climbed back into the capsule to make room for SpaceX engineer Sarah Gillis.The hatch was open for just a half hour.In fact，the attempt was perhaps more of a stand﹣up extravehicular activity （SEVA） than a walk—the commander and Gillis held onto the railings attached to the hatch with a hand or a foot during the entire time.Their spacesuits wouldn't have allowed for a spacewalk without being attached anyway.
Though only the commander and Gillis conducted a spacewalk，the entire crew，which included mission pilot Scott Poteet and medical officer Anna Menon，had to wear spacesuits during the EVA，as the Dragon spacecraft didn't have an airlock.As a result，the entire capsule had to be depressurized and open to the vacuum （真空） of space during the spacewalk.
When the commander opened the hatch，it also marked the first time that the crew were in space at the same time.But the mission's "firsts" don't end there —at its peak distance of 870 miles from the Earth，the Dragon's crew were the farthest from our planet that any human has been since NASA's Apollo moon missions.So it's significant that the Falcon 9 rocket that launched them into space earlier this week lifted off from the same launch pad as Apollo 11.As if that wasn't enough，this mission marked the first time in space for Poteet，Gillis and Menon.
（1）What is the target of Polaris Dawn？ 　 　
A.To test new spacesuits and advance research.
B.To conduct a spacewalk without attachments.
C.To undertake a governmental space exploration.
D.To compete with NASA's Apollo missions and others.
（2）Why did all the crew wear spacesuits during the spacewalk？ 　 　
A.To create a vacuum.
B.To increase body pressure.
C.To deal with the absence of the airlock.
D.To participate in the medical activities in space.
（3）Which of the following was the achievement of the mission？ 　 　
A.It set several new records.
B.It marked the farthest rocket launch.

12．（2025 南宁二模） Sea turtles can survive being struck by a boat—but as they recover，their shells often change shape，bulging （鼓起） from air building up within their bodies，which makes the animals unstable when they swim，resulting in "bubble butt syndrome （泡沫屁股综合征） " ，which prevents turtles swimming or diving normally.Typically，turtles with this condition cannot be released back into the ocean.
But a "bubble butt" male turtle named Charlotte is now swimming more smoothly at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut，thanks to a harness （挽具） built by a 3 D printer.It took several years of work，but in a recent fitting，the harness was moved quickly into place. "The staff was super pumped， " says Alex Pestana，a sales engineer at 3 D printing company Formlabs. "We help Charlotte out! " Charlotte passed from the Georgia Sea Turtle Center to the Mystic Aquarium.
A male green sea turtle was given the name Bubble Butt at The Turtle Hospital in the Florida Keys shortly after he arrived there in 1989.To help him，they attached 2.5 pounds of lead to his shell.This helped，but it isn't a permanent solution as the weights move as the animals grow.Bubble Butt died in 2022.But by then，efforts were under way to use 3 Dprinting to help turtles like him.With harnesses like Charlotte's，weights can be added gradually to assist the animals to adjust.
The Turtle Hospital currently has around 15 turtles with bubble butt syndrome，according to Bette Zirkelbach，the hospital's manager. "People who drive boats should obey speed restrictions，many of which apply in shallower areas， " Zirkelbach says. "In shallow water，animals like sea turtles and dolphins have nowhere to escape from boats—they can't dive down. "
（1）What is the main purpose of the 3 D﹣printed harness for sea turtles like Charlotte？ 　 　
A.To repair their damaged shells.
B.To assist them in swimming.
C.To help them reduce their weight.
D.To prevent air entering their bodies.
（2）What does the underlined word "pumped" in paragraph 2 mean？ 　 　
A.Curious.
B.Relaxed.
C.Grateful.
D.Excited.
（3）What should we do according to Bette Zirkelbach？ 　 　
A.Avoid boat speeding.
B.Build advanced boats.
C.Protect bubble butt turtles.
D.Change turtles' living places.
（4）What is a suitable title for the text？

14．（2025 腾冲市校级一模） Chinese tennis has had stars in the past.Notably WTA （Women's Tennis Association） Li Na，who won two majors （Roland Garros 2011，Australian Open 2014）and reached a career﹣high，No.2.Her influence is evident on the WTA Tour today，with Zheng Qinwen，21，advancing to the Australian Open final in January.
On the ATP （Association of Tennis Professionals） Tour，it is Zhang Zhizhen who is flying the flag for his country.The 27﹣year﹣old became the first Chinese player to break into the Top 50 in the Pepperstone ATP Rankings in singles last month before he won his first ATP Tour doubles title in Marseille in early February.
Zhang revealed that the success of his female compatriots （同胞） is motivating him in his attempts to match their achievements. "On the WTA，Chinese tennis had super successful results already.They had a Grand Slam （大满贯） winner with Li Na and now Zheng reaching the final in Australia，" Zhang said. "It is good.But I am trying to catch them and get better on the ATP Tour."
"Everyone is different and has a different path，" Zhang said. "You can't watch those top guys who have great results at 20 or 21 and compare.When I was 21，22，I was struggling.You have to keep moving，keep going forward and realise it can take time.It is not just when you are 20 you are at the top.You need to believe in yourself because perhaps you think you can never break into the Top 100.But now I am in the Top 50.We have to believe that we can do a little bit more."
Zhang's patience paid off last year in Madrid，where he became the first Chinese man to reach the quarter﹣finals at an ATP Masters 1000 event.He has since advanced to the third round at Roland Garros and the US Open，the fourth round at the ATP Masters 1000 in Shanghai and the semi﹣finals at the ATP 500 in Hamburg.

16．（2025 赤峰模拟） A Munich art museum worker has been fired for adding one of his own drawings to the collection without permission，which occurred in February.
The Pinakothek der Moderne showcases art by Salvador Dali，Pablo Picasso，Nam June Paik and Max Ernst，among many others.The uninvited artist is not named in news accounts；the managers want to discourage others trying the same thing，unless，of course，they're Banksy.We know only that the unauthorized artwork was 23 by 47 inches.
Museums and galleries have limited space and budgets，and often display what they know people want to see. "Sometimes it can feel like it's the same 25 artists always being exhibited in museums，" Clara Lieu，a former Rhode Island School of Design professor，told us. "I laughed softly when I saw this story，" she added. "It's an exhibition opportunity that has never crossed my mind."
Nevertheless，she hopes other artists won't follow with their own unapproved wall hangings，adding "Today，most of the time we look at artworks is on a phone.That makes museums even more important，to create experiences where we can engage with art more deeply.But all artists have a fundamental desire for their artworks to be seen."
I wonder if museums and galleries might consider having Open Wall nights，the way comedy clubs have Open Mic nights.Let people who paint，sculpt，knit，spray﹣paint，put their work on a real museum wall or base for a night，with permission.
An Open Wall night might open a window through which more artists can be spotted and reminds us，too，that creating something with the power to charm，dazzle，or fascinate is not as easy as just hanging art on a wall.

18．（2025 柳州三模） At a Berlin trade fair for sustainability，a new device caught Waltraud Berg's eye—a solar panel small enough to be easily installed （安装） on the side of a balcony（阳台） and then plugged into a wall socket（插座） to feed energy produced by the sun directly into her home.
"I was absolutely thrilled to learn that such a thing even existed，that you can generate your own power and be more independent， " said Ms.Berg，a retiree who installed several panels on the south﹣facing balcony of her apartment by herself.
Each of the lightweight panels produces only enough electricity to charge a laptop or run a small refrigerator.But in homes across Germany，they are powering a quiet transformation.Electricity prices in Germany have now settled at around 25 euro cents per kilowatt﹣hour.But they remain among the highest in Europe.Recently，a few new passed laws have effectively prevented landlords from blocking solar panel installations and dropped some of the annoying registration requirements.More than 500，000 of the systems have already been set up across Germany，and the new laws that relaxed rules around solar panel installation have contributed to a craze in use.
Some of the solar panels sold in Germany are made by European companies，but most are produced in China，whose dominance （支配地位） of the global industry allows it to deliver solar panels at increasingly lower costs.Janik Nolden，who together with two friends founded Solago，a German company that sells rooftop solar panels and the plug﹣in versions，said most of the ones that he sells are produced in China，which makes better quality and less expensive panels than anything being produced in Europe.
"We are seeing a continuous increase in solar installations in particular， " said Klaus Müller，president of the Federal Network Agency. "Compared to the total capacity of last year，almost 10 percent more solar capacity was added in 2024.Of that，two﹣thirds was installed on buildings，which includes balcony systems. "
（1）Why was Waltraud Berg excited about the solar panels？ 　 　
A．Because they could help her save on electricity bills significantly.
B．Because they allowed her to make her own electricity.
C．Because they enabled her to grow plants on her balcony.
D．Because they allowed her to share electricity with her neighbors.
（2）What can be inferred from paragraph 3？ 　 　
A．Landlords are forced to install solar panels.
B．No upsetting install﹣restrictions exist.
C．New laws are favored by consumers.
D．Electricity prices will certainly remain at a high level.
（3）What do we know about the solar panels sold in Germany？ 　 　
A．All of the panels are made in China.
B．The solar panels must be installed by professionals.
C．The panels have no effect on the electricity prices in Germany.
D．A lightweight panel generates enough power to charge a portable PC．

19．（2025 黔东南州一模） Like many cities across the United States，Portland，Oregon faces a homelessness crisis.According to the city's 2023 Point﹣in﹣Time Count，overall homelessness in Portland increased by 65% from 2015 to 2023，with people living unsheltered in the streets jumping to an estimated 6，297 individuals，compared to 1，887 eight years before.This mounting problem requires plenty of creative solutions.Waste management workers with Ground Score Association（GSA） have found that solution through trash.
GSA is a Portland nonprofit created by﹣and for﹣people who are experiencing or have experienced homelessness.The group is fiscally supported by Trash For Peace and manages an association of recyclers，waste pickers，and other environmental workers who create and fill waste management jobs in the city.
The initiative hires people with a history of homelessness to pick up waste alongside designated routes，provide tent﹣side trash collection to people living outside，and more.Workers are paid between ＄20 and＄29 per hour by the City of Portland，Multnomah County，and the Lloyd Enhanced Services District.Despite approaching budget cuts across the city，officials say the initiative is valuable.
Katie Lindsay，a program analyst for Portland who oversees GSA's contract，stated，"You're going to get significant outcomes for the lowest of dollars.There are increasingly shrinking resources in an unending vat of need.This goes so far.Why wouldn't you fund it？"
According to GSA's website，the program has directly hired 55 members of the community，over 95% of whom were formerly or currently are houseless.Since having started working for GSA，over 70% of those workers have become housed.
Co﹣founded by Barbra Weber，GSA came into existence when she was living in a tent encampment a few years back.Many of her neighbors earned cash from collecting cans and bottles，but she knew they needed more funding and organization to really see a difference.
Now，GSA not only has a contract with the city，but it also provides supportive social benefits for its employees，like healthcare，mental health services，and acquiring housing and legal identification.
（1）What do the figures in paragraph 1 indicate？ 　 　
A.Fewer people are living unsheltered.

1．（2025 九龙坡区模拟） A new study of lunar samples collected by China's Chang' e﹣6 mission has confirmed that the moon was once covered by"magma（岩浆） ocean" in its early stages.This discovery provides important evidence for understanding the moon's origin and evolution（进化）.
The study，led by a team from the China National Space Administration （CNSA），was published in the journal Science.In 2024，Chang' e﹣6 successfully collected1，935.3 grams of lunar material from the far side of the moon，marking the first time humans have obtained samples from this region.
Researchers analyzed basalt，a type of volcanic rock，from the samples and found that the composition of basalt on the far side is similar to that on the near side.The basalt is about 2.82 billion years old，supporting the lunar magma ocean model.This model suggests that the moon was once entirely melted，forming a global magma ocean.As it cooled，lighter minerals rose to form the moon's surface，while heavier minerals sank to form the covering layers.
The study also revealed that the impact that created the South Pole﹣Aitken （SPA）Basin，the moon's largest and oldest basin，may have changed the moon's early layers.Additionally，the lead isotope（同位素） paths in basalt from the far and near sides are different，indicating that different parts of the moon gradually changed and developed into different forms after the magma ocean cooled.
The research team plans to further study the moon's early impact history and hopes to find materials from the moon's layers.Understanding the moon's past can also help scientists learn more about Earth's early history，which must have been connected with the earth's layer activities.
CNSA emphasized its commitment to advancing lunar research and sharing findings with the international community.This study not only deepens our understanding of the moon but also opens new possibilities for exploring the solar system's history.
（1）What is the main focus of the study？ 　B　
A.Earth's origin.
