I remember that it was a fall morning when the orchestra (管弦乐队 ) teachers came into Miss
Newell’s third-grade classroom. “You have hands for the viola (中提琴 ),” Miss Ciano told me. I was
excited because my hands were finally good for something. I told my parents I wanted to play, and
naturally, they agreed.
Since I first touched the viola, I haven’t been able to put it down. Ignoring the difficulty, I am pulled
closer to it each day.
Classical music is truly my best friend. It is the trusted friend of every man, woman and child.
Various feelings are expressed in classical music. I discovered that when I was eleven and played a cello
concerto (大提琴协奏曲 ) of Bach in a competition, the first movement was joyful, but the second
movement was mysterious and full of pain. From the piece, I learned that music expresses not only
feelings, but also sudden mood changes. By listening to classical music, I know that someone else shares
these feelings. Since I am lucky enough to be able to play classical music, it always brings relief to me
when I'm upset. It gives me a way to escape from my problems for a short period. Classical music can
express my joy, sadness and anger.
Now look back at that fall day in the third grade and think how gullible I was for believing that
anyone, even music teachers, could tell whether hands were perfect for a certain instrument. I’m certain
they told me I had “viola hands” not because they were fortune-tellers, but because there was a lack of
violists in our district. But none of that lessens the profound truth: classical music is one of the best things
that ever happened to mankind. If you get introduced to it in the right way, it will become your friend for
life.
24.What’s the main cause of the author’s interest in playing the viola
A.Interesting musical classes. B.Beautiful viola sound.
C.Parents’ strong support. D.Teachers’ encouraging comment.
25.According to the passage, in what way does classical music help the author
A.By developing social skills. B.By broadening life experience.
C.By giving emotional comfort. D.By building close relationship.
26.What does the underlined word “gullible” mean in the last paragraph
A.Easily tricked. B.Firmly loved. C.Greatly challenged. D.Secretly hidden.
27.Which could be the best title for the passage
A.Special Event, Sweet Memory. B.Classical Music, Endless Friendship.
C.Lifetime Dream, Great effort. D.Happy Childhood, Unforgotten Experience.

When visiting a doctor in the future, you can expect to be accompanied by a virtual version of
yourself. This so-called digital twin will be a working model of your body that can be shown onto a
physician’s computer screen. Updated with your latest vital signs, it will help the doctor make an accurate
diagnosis (诊断) and provide personalized treatments for the patients.
No matter how unreal this might seem, the researchers at Queen Mary University of London
(QMUL) already use computer simulations (模拟) of the hearts of patients to test different treatments for
a heart disorder. It would be far too dangerous to experiment this way on someone’s real heart.
Digital twins are starting to be seen everywhere. They can not only monitor the health of jet engines
on airliners, but also help carmakers spend fewer years on the development of new models by simulating
test drives and crashes. All this is being powered by recent progress in artificial intelligence(AI), which
gives twins the ability to make predictions about their physical counterparts (对应的事物), and adjust
themselves based on new information.
Digital twins make it easier for humans to solve challenging problems, allowing people to have a
look into the future. For businesses, this should mean better designs and operations. For society, the
promise is also fascinating: personalized health care, and ways to prevent the earth from environmental
disasters.
Could these virtual twins go out of control They might if they are programmed badly, or hacked
into. Digital twins will take in mountains of data, some of it wrong and much of it raising concerns about
privacy. Yet those risks are a natural part of technological progress. The appearance of the digital mirror
world will raise new questions, but its potential benefits are already easy to see.
28.Which of the following best describes a digital twin
A.A virtual copy. B.A video game. C.A toy model. D.Amedical database.
29.Why do researchers at QMUL use computer simulations of hearts
A.To reduce the time of the heart operation.
B.To use real hearts much more conveniently.
C.To help increase the patients’ recovery rates.
D.To avoid the danger of experimenting on real hearts.
30.How does AI contribute to the development of digital twins
A.It increases the efficiency of simulations through data analysis.
B.It creates accurate digital copies for medical and industrial use.
C.It enables digital twins to predict results and adapt autonomously.
D.It improves virtual models by adding real-time monitoring features.
31.What is the author’s attitude towards the digital twins
A.Critical. B.Positive. C.Doubtful. D.Unconcerned.
D
Human doctors perform amputations, surgical(外科的) removals of an arm, leg, or finger, after a
serious injury. But new research shows that some ants perform amputations on injured ants to help them
survive an injury.
Two carpenter ants are seen in a laboratory at the University of Lausanne. Scientists said they either
cleaned the wound using their mouthparts or amputated the limb, or leg, by biting it off. The choice of
care was determined by where the injury occurred on the leg. When it was further up the leg, they always
amputated. When it was further down, they never amputated.
Erik Frank of the University of Wurzburg in Germany is the lead writer of the research. Frank said
the study describes “for the first time how a non-human animal uses amputations on another individual to

Pride hurts, modesty benefits.
save their life.” He believes “that the ants’ ‘medical system’ to care for the injured is the most
complicated in the animal kingdom,” and compares well to human medicine.
“Injuries further down the leg have an increased flow of hemolymph (血淋巴 ),” Frank said. So
harmful bacteria can enter the body after only five minutes. An amputation would not help infection after
that time. He continued, “Injuries further up the leg have a much slower hemolymph flow, giving enough
time for timely and effective amputations.”
The study found that after an upper leg injury, an ant that experiences amputation has a survival rate
of 95 to 97 percent. For lower leg injuries in which just cleaning was performed, the survival rate was
about 75 percent, compared to about 15 percent for injuries that received no care. And only female ants
perform the treatment of wounds by cleaning or amputation. “All worker ants are female. Males play only
a minor role in ant community,” Frank said.
So why do ants do these amputations Frank said, “There is a very simple evolutionary reason for
caring for the injured. It saves resources.” He noted that if an ant could be saved with little effort to
remain productive, “there is a very high value of doing so.” “At the same time, if an individual is too
heavily injured, the ants will not care for her, but rather leave her behind to die,” Frank added.
32.What determines the type of treatment applied to injured ants
A.The role of the ants. B.The location of the injury.
C. The timing of the treatment. D.The speed of the blood flow.
33. Why do carpenter ants avoid amputating lower leg injuries
A. The injury is too minor to require amputation.
B. Amputating lower legs would cause sharp pain.
C. The injury is too close to the foot to ensure the effort.
D. Hemolymph flows too fast for amputation to function.
34.What can be inferred about ant societies from the study
A. Injured ants get the same care regardless of their condition.
B. Ants’ medical practices are as complex as human medicine.
C. Ants develop medical behavior to compete with other species.
D. Resource efficiency is prioritized in caring for injured members.
35.What is the passage mainly about
A. How ants pool resources. B. How ants perform amputations.
C. How injured ants are treated. D. How amputations affect ants.

As a baby, Jack’s remarkable swimming journey began. At ten months, he already practised with
swim aids. At six, he won his first swimming competition in a group for kids ten-and-under. At seven, he
stayed at the pool from nine in the morning till eight hours later. His mother, recognizing his gift, took it
as her duty to guide him. 36 By a young age, Jack had been ranked the number one
swimmer of the country, a title he held for a record-breaking duration.
37 He played skiing, tennis, soccer, and many more. Sam was a kid who loved to play,
and his parents had no particular athletic ambitions for him. It was nearing his teens that he began to
focus more on basketball. 38 In his mid-thirties, an age by which many professional
basketball players are typically retired, Sam was still in the national basketball team.
Top athletes like Jack at the peak of their abilities do spend more time on focused, deliberate(刻意
的) practice than their peers (同龄人). But scientists also find that potential champions typically devote
less time to deliberate practice in childhood, but more to trying out various activities. 39

In a world that demands people to specialize early, we face a challenge to keep the benefits of
diverse experiences and delayed concentration. There’s a need for those with Jack’s early focus. 40
— People who start with many different things and accept various experiences. People with range.
A.There was no time to waste.
B.And it was all going according to plan.
C.The growing complexity of the world also calls for more Sams.
D.But it didn’t seem to hold back his development in the long run.
E.In reality, the Sam’s path to success is far more common, yet less told.
F.In contrast to Jack, Sam didn’t show significant sporting talent until later.
G.Unlike the swimming talent, Sam’s early years were filled with a variety of sports.

When my daughters reached the third and fourth grades, I occasionally allowed them to walk to and
from school alone if the weather permitted. One warm spring day, a little dog followed them home after
school. It had short legs and long lovely ears, with a fawn-colored coat. It was the cutest dog I had ever
seen and the girls begged me to keep it.
The dog was barely twelve weeks old. It had no collar or identifying marks of any sort. I didn’t know
what to do. I thought about running an advertisement in the lost-and-found but I really didn’t want to. It
would break the kids’ hearts if someone should show up. Besides, its owners should have watched it more
closely.
By the end of the week the dog was part of our family. It was very intelligent and good with the girls.
The following week something told me to check the lost-and-found section in the local paper. One
particular advertisement jumped out at me and my heart pounded with fear at what I read.
Someone was begging for the return of a lost dog in the neighborhood of our grade school. They
sounded desperate. My hand shook. I couldn’t bring myself to pick up the phone. Instead, I pretended I
hadn’t seen the advertisement. I quickly put paper away in the drawer and continued with my dusting. I
never said a word about it to the kids or my husband.
By now we had named the dog. It looked like a Molly, so that was what we called it. It followed the
girls everywhere they went. When they went outside, it was one step behind them. When they did
housework, it was there to lend a hand.
There was only one problem with this otherwise perfect picture: my conscienc（e 良心）was bothering
me. I knew in my heart I had to call that number and see if our Molly was the dog they were desperately
seeking. It was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done.

Reaching for the Stars
A captivating Aerospace Technology Exhibition was held successfully on our school last week, showcasing
China's space milestones in the past 60 years.
The event featured vivid videos of Tiangong Space Station’s construction and real-time images of Mars captured
by Tianwen-1 probe. Moreover, attendees could experience the feeling of being in a space capsule as an astronaut
firsthand. The highlight of the event was a documentary, through which we had an extensive knowledge of amazing
contributions and sacrifices made by numerous aerospace workers.
All teachers and students spoke highly of this exhibition, sharing their admiration and respect for our nation’s
marvelous accomplishments.

Possible version:
With mixed feelings, I finally picked up the phone. How I wish there would be no one to answer, or someone
would just say the dog had already been found. But none of these happened. On the other end was a voice of a
middle-aged woman, who listened to my description of the dog and immediately offered to come over. During the
conversation, Molly sat quietly at my side, nudging my hand with its tiny warm nose. It was only less than 30
minutes before the doorbell rang, but to me it seemed to last a century. Outside the door stood the woman, expectation
written all over her face.
I asked the woman to come in and she quickly bent over and hugged Molly tightly. The dog hesitated for a
second, then it started wagging its tail and barking excitedly as if it had recognized someone familiar. My heart
sank. It was just like my worst nightmare coming into reality that Molly did belong to that woman. She kept
expressing her gratitude to us and promised we could go to see Molly whenever we wanted. Seeing the woman and
Molly vanishing in the distance, I, along with my husband and girls, beamed with satisfaction—my conscience was at
ease.
