Valerie, a cute dachshund (腊肠犬), had an incredible adventure. She spent 529days all by herself on Kangaroo Island in Australia before finally being rescued, and her story captured the hearts of many people.
Valerie made her escape during a camping trip with owners Georgia Gardner and her partner Josh Fishlock, dashing out of a pen (围栏) and straight into the bush. Her worried owners searched for days - across the large island, which covers more than 4,400 square kilometers of farms, nature reserves, and rock y cliffs. But they had no luck and finally gave up. The missing dachshund was not seen for more than a year,with many holding out little hope for her survival.
Then, video cameras and locals began spotting her and volunteers launched a patient hunt for her. Volunteer searchers drove more than 5,000 kilometers and used cameras, traps and special food to attract her. But Valerie seemed to flee from people and cars. “Valerie seems impossible to trap,” a wildlife rescuer posted on social media last month.
After spending more than 1,000 hours on the search, the volunteers finally succeeded. The wildlife rescue group was overjoyed and relieved to announce that Valerie was safe and sound. She would soon return to her loving owners.
“Bred to be an independent hunter of dangerous prey, they can be brave to the point of rashness, and a bit stubborn,” the rescue group said.
Valerie’ s owner Gardner said in a social media post she was “incredibly grateful” to the volunteers who helped find her dog. For anyone who’ s ever lost a pet, your feelings are valid and never give up hope.
4. What happened to Valerie during the camping trip
A. She fell off a rocky cliff.
B. She was attacked by wild animals.
C. She was left behind by her owners.
D. She got lost after running out of a pen.
5. Why was it difficult for the volunteers to catch Valerie
A. She could hide in the thick bush easily.
B. She was too fast for the volunteers to follow.
C. She was accustomed to living alone on the island.
D. She was so cautious that she always avoided people.
6. What can we infer from Gardner’s words on social media
A. Lost pets are often hunted in the wild.
B. People should keep their pets at home.
C. Never lose hope when pets go missing.
D. Dachshunds are the bravest dog breed.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. A Dog’s Amazing Adventure B. Tips for Pet Protection
C. The Efforts of Rescue Volunteers D. The Survival of Dachshunds
C
It is rare that the CEO praises the virtues of sleeping late. According to one study, two-thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock, while for average Americans, the share is less than one third. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose.
Mike has no such ambitions. But he’s tried with early starts, and finds they bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor — mailbox can be cleared and problems solved before the flood of meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead.
Early birds are certainly thought highly of. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most companies. A study published in 2020 found night owls (猫头鹰) were regarded as being “lazy” and “immature”.
However, rising early is not all upside. Those prepared to receive work when the boss arrives may be assigned more of it. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues.
Waking before sunrise also risks making you a bore. Some early risers can’t help describing how much they got done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many,late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are viewed as for the elderly.
If you’d like to change your body clock, it is possible to end in disappointment, as it is largely determined by genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5 and why they ought to have break rooms.
8. What advantage does Mike find in early starts
A. Getting ready for the work. B. Enhancing creative thinking.
C. Reducing workload pressure. D. Improving social relationships.
9. What can we learn from paragraph 4
A. Night owls feel more stressed. B. Rising early is altogether beneficial.
C. Rising early probably means getting more work. D. One arriving early can end up in working earlier.
10. What does the underlined words “hit the snooze button” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Let out a yawn. B. Sleep a little longer.
C. Turn off the alarm. D. Get up to make breakfast.
11. What is the author’s final advice regarding the body clock
A. Accept their genetic determination. B. Prioritize nighttime productivity.
C. Adjust it through consistent habits. D. Balance work with regular breaks.
D
An accurate diagnosis of ADHD (多动症) is really important for people who have it. It helps them understand their condition and get the right support. But the current ways of diagnosing ADHD take a lot of time and aren’t always accurate. A new study suggests AI could help.
Researchers in South Korea trained machine learning models to connect characteristics in photos of the fundus (眼底) at the back of the eye to a professional diagnosis of ADHD. Among the four machine learning models they tested, the best achieved a 96.9 percent score for predicting ADHD accurately, based on image analysis alone.
The team discovered that higher blood vessel (血管) density, the shape and width of the vessels, and some changes in the eye’s optic disc were key signs of ADHD. For many years, people have thought that the changes in brain connectivity related to ADHD might also show up in our eyes. If we can figure out what exactly to look for, it could mean we have a faster and more reliable way to detect the disorder.
The researchers tested this method on 323 children and teenagers with ADHD and another 323 without ADHD. The second group had the same age and sex as the first one. They found the AI system did very well in predicting ADHD and spotting some of its features. like problems with visual selective attention.
Next, the researchers plan to test this method on more people of different ages.The average age of participants in this study was 9.5 years, and we know ADHD in adults can present quite differently. Also, they need to make the system better at telling the difference between ADHD and autism (自闭症). Since about 1 in 20 people has ADHD, a quicker and more accurate diagnosis can really make a difference to their lives. “Early screening and timely intervention can improve social, familial, and academic functioning in individuals with ADHD,” write the researchers.
12. What is the main problem with current ADHD diagnosis
A. Expensive and unetable. B. Dependable and available.
C. Inaccessible and incorrect. D. Time-consuming and inaccurate.
13. What did the South Korean researchers do in the study
A. They developed a new drug for treating ADHD.
B. They treated 323 children and teenagers with ADHD.
C. They trained machine learning models to predict ADHD.
D. They studied the relationship between autism and ADHD.
14. How did researchers test the AI system
A. By predicting the features. B. By using a matched control group.
C. By referring to previous studies. D. By testing 600 children in total.
15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. The intention of applying the AI system to more people.
B. The significant impact of age differences on ADHD symptoms.
C. The necessity of expanding AI-based ADHD diagnosis research.
D. The importance of early social support for children with ADHD.

When we think of success, we often think of a few different things: hard work,persistence, discipline, pain. ____16____ The very secret is the power of visualization.
What is visualization
Simply, it’s the habit of imagining yourself accomplishing what you want to achieve — and then accomplishing it. This is a tried and tested method supported by various researchers and psychologists. In short, visualization trains the brain on how to react to obstacles (障碍) and prepares them to reach both short-term and long-term goals. It convinces the brain that what you are imagining is actually reality. ____17____
____18____
The power of visualization comes from convincing your brain that not only can you make it, but you will make it. It convinces the brain that there is a reward at the end of all your hard work. This boost of drive and ambition doesn’t just motivate you to work hard, but it inspires you to keep on going when the going gets tough.
How to make use of visualization for success
One of the most powerful ways to put visualization into practice is through meditation visualization (冥想想象) ____19____ Meditation visualization is also a good practice to train your mind to overcome obstacles. Since the obstacles are already overcome in your mind, your brain reacts as necessary.
____20____ It lessens fears, strengthens your belief in your goals, and convinces your brain you’ re capable. In its essence, visualization brings your dream just a little bit closer to reality. Close enough, at least, that you can reach out and grab it.
A. Why can visualization work
B. Where does visualization come from
C. This, in turn, changes how the brain behaves.
D. Visualization is a useful tool for realizing any dream.
E. Visualization can be used to help overcome specific fears.
F. But there is a simple yet powerful secret you can make use of.
G. Picture your dreams, and you’ll get a better vision of your future and goals.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Axel entered my life 20 years ago, leaning against the door of Room 101. He wore sneakers three sizes too large and pants torn at the knees.
Axel made an entrance into the school of a village known for its old money,fashionable homes and golden mailboxes. He told me his last school had been in a neighboring county. “We were picking fruit,” he said frankly.
I suspected this friendly, smiling boy in rags from an immigrant family (移民家庭) didn’t know he had been thrown into a group of ten-year-old lions who had never before seen torn pants. The circle of boys tightened when Axel approached, their turned backs forming a solid wall. Despite being impolitely treated, Axel didn’t let on.There was no chip on his shoulder.
They eyed Axel doubtfully until the baseball game. With it came a bit of respect from the critics (批评家) of Room 101. In the baseball game, Charles, the most overweight child in the class, was the least athletic. After Charles’s second strike, with the eyes and groans of the class, Axel inched up and spoke quietly to the boy’s depressed back, “Forget them, kid. You can do it.” Charles warmed, smiled, stood taller and quickly struck out anyway. But at that precise moment, Axel had gently begun to change things — and us.
By autumn’s end, we had all been attracted by him. He taught us all kinds of lessons. How to call a wild turkey. How to tell whether fruit is ripe before that first bite. How to treat others, even Charles. Especially Charles. He never did use our names,calling me “Miss” and the students “kid”.
The day before winter vacation, Axel walked to my desk and bent close to my ear. “Miss, my mother said we were moving to another place, so I need to leave school earlier today to pack up.” At the news, my voice caught in my throat.
When Axel was away, I gently broke the news to the class.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning, to Axel’s surprise, piles of gifts were lying on his desk.

Volunteer searchers drove more than 5,000 kilometers and used cameras, traps and special food to attract her. But Valerie seemed to flee from people and cars. “Valerie seems impossible to trap,” a wildlife rescuer posted on social media last month.
After spending more than 1,000 hours on the search, the volunteers finally succeeded. The wildlife rescue group was overjoyed and relieved to announce that Valerie was safe and sound. She would soon return to her loving owners.
“Bred to be an independent hunter of dangerous prey, they can be brave to the point of rashness, and a bit stubborn,” the rescue group said.
Valerie’ s owner Gardner said in a social media post she was “incredibly grateful” to the volunteers who helped find her dog. For anyone who’ s ever lost a pet, your feelings are valid and never give up hope.

It is rare that the CEO praises the virtues of sleeping late. According to one study, two-thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock, while for average Americans, the share is less than one third. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose.
Mike has no such ambitions. But he’s tried with early starts, and finds they bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor — mailbox can be cleared and problems solved before the flood of meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead.
Early birds are certainly thought highly of. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most companies. A study published in 2020 found night owls (猫头鹰) were regarded as being “lazy” and “immature”.
However, rising early is not all upside. Those prepared to receive work when the boss arrives may be assigned more of it. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues.
Waking before sunrise also risks making you a bore. Some early risers can’t help describing how much they got done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many,late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are viewed as for the elderly.
If you’d like to change your body clock, it is possible to end in disappointment, as it is largely determined by genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5 and why they ought to have break rooms.
8. What advantage does Mike find in early starts
A. Getting ready for the work. B. Enhancing creative thinking.
C. Reducing workload pressure. D. Improving social relationships.
9. What can we learn from paragraph 4
A. Night owls feel more stressed. B. Rising early is altogether beneficial.
C. Rising early probably means getting more work. D. One arriving early can end up in working earlier.
10. What does the underlined words “hit the snooze button” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Let out a yawn. B. Sleep a little longer.
C. Turn off the alarm. D. Get up to make breakfast.
11. What is the author’s final advice regarding the body clock
A. Accept their genetic determination. B. Prioritize nighttime productivity.
C. Adjust it through consistent habits. D. Balance work with regular breaks.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. A
D
An accurate diagnosis of ADHD (多动症) is really important for people who have it. It helps them understand their condition and get the right support. But the current ways of diagnosing ADHD take a lot of time and aren’t always accurate. A new study suggests AI could help.
Researchers in South Korea trained machine learning models to connect characteristics in photos of the fundus (眼底) at the back of the eye to a professional diagnosis of ADHD. Among the four machine learning models they tested, the best achieved a 96.9 percent score for predicting ADHD accurately, based on image analysis alone.
The team discovered that higher blood vessel (血管) density, the shape and width of the vessels, and some changes in the eye’s optic disc were key signs of ADHD. For many years, people have thought that the changes in brain connectivity related to ADHD might also show up in our eyes. If we can figure out what exactly to look for, it could mean we have a faster and more reliable way to detect the disorder.
The researchers tested this method on 323 children and teenagers with ADHD and another 323 without ADHD. The second group had the same age and sex as the first one. They found the AI system did very well in predicting ADHD and spotting some of its features. like problems with visual selective attention.
Next, the researchers plan to test this method on more people of different ages.The average age of participants in this study was 9.5 years, and we know ADHD in adults can present quite differently. Also, they need to make the system better at telling the difference between ADHD and autism (自闭症). Since about 1 in 20 people has ADHD, a quicker and more accurate diagnosis can really make a difference to their lives. “Early screening and timely intervention can improve social, familial, and academic functioning in individuals with ADHD,” write the researchers.
12. What is the main problem with current ADHD diagnosis
A. Expensive and unetable. B. Dependable and available.
C. Inaccessible and incorrect. D. Time-consuming and inaccurate.
13. What did the South Korean researchers do in the study
A. They developed a new drug for treating ADHD.
B. They treated 323 children and teenagers with ADHD.
C. They trained machine learning models to predict ADHD.
D. They studied the relationship between autism and ADHD.
14. How did researchers test the AI system
A. By predicting the features. B. By using a matched control group.
C. By referring to previous studies. D. By testing 600 children in total.
15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. The intention of applying the AI system to more people.
B. The significant impact of age differences on ADHD symptoms.
C. The necessity of expanding AI-based ADHD diagnosis research.
D. The importance of early social support for children with ADHD.

The activity was highly praised, as it broadened our horizons. We realized technology can greatly enhance teaching and learning. It inspired us to embrace new methods for better study.
47. 阅读下面短文，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Axel entered my life 20 years ago, leaning against the door of Room 101. He wore sneakers three sizes too large and pants torn at the knees.
Axel made an entrance into the school of a village known for its old money,fashionable homes and golden mailboxes. He told me his last school had been in a neighboring county. “We were picking fruit,” he said frankly.
I suspected this friendly, smiling boy in rags from an immigrant family (移民家庭) didn’t know he had been thrown into a group of ten-year-old lions who had never before seen torn pants. The circle of boys tightened when Axel approached, their turned backs forming a solid wall. Despite being impolitely treated, Axel didn’t let on.There was no chip on his shoulder.
They eyed Axel doubtfully until the baseball game. With it came a bit of respect from the critics (批评家) of Room 101. In the baseball game, Charles, the most overweight child in the class, was the least athletic. After Charles’s second strike, with the eyes and groans of the class, Axel inched up and spoke quietly to the boy’s depressed back, “Forget them, kid. You can do it.” Charles warmed, smiled, stood taller and quickly struck out anyway. But at that precise moment, Axel had gently begun to change things — and us.
By autumn’s end, we had all been attracted by him. He taught us all kinds of lessons. How to call a wild turkey. How to tell whether fruit is ripe before that first bite. How to treat others, even Charles. Especially Charles. He never did use our names,calling me “Miss” and the students “kid”.
The day before winter vacation, Axel walked to my desk and bent close to my ear. “Miss, my mother said we were moving to another place, so I need to leave school earlier today to pack up.” At the news, my voice caught in my throat.
When Axel was away, I gently broke the news to the class.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning, to Axel’s surprise, piles of gifts were lying on his desk.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
When Axel was away, I gently broke the news to the class. A stunned silence fell over Room 101. Charles looked especially sad, his shoulders dropping. One student murmured, “But he taught me turkey calls!” Then came another voice, “Who’ll help me with peaches ” Suddenly, Charles sprang to his feet and yelled, “We can’t let him leave like this!” Others nodded hard, voices mixed, “Yeah, we should do something for him!” Watching them silently and smilingly, I felt a sense of warmth and pride sweeping over me. Within minutes, they made a decision: everyone would bring something meaningful by tomorrow morning.
The next morning, to Axel’s surprise, piles of gifts were lying on his desk. Colorfully wrapped presents, handmade cards... Slowly approaching, with trembling hands, Axel picked up a card signed by the whole class, tears rolling down his cheeks, “Thanks, kids.Really.” Charles stepped forward and hugged him tightly, saying, “Thank you, Axel. Friends never say goodbye!” All others gathered around, eyes filled with tears. Axel looked around at the faces, the once unfriendly “lions” softened. I knew, in that pile of gifts hid the greatest one — Axel’s kindness and love, which changed Room 101’s lions.
