Approaching 96, at an age when most are lonely and in poor health, Olga Murray, full of energy, has been eagerly planning a trip to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, while keeping in contact with hundreds of friends around the world. How can she be in such good shape Is it her good genes (Her mother lived to 98.) Her daily salads and three-times-a-week workouts Or might it have something to do with the retired lawyer’s second career as founder of a nonprofit organization
Scientists increasingly are finding that the answer — call it living with purpose, finding meaning in life or just engaging with something larger than yourself can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement. At 59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir (自传) years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only orphanage (孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising campaigns.
How did Nepalese children impress Murray when she traveled in Nepal at 59
They were eager to receive education.
They lived a very poor but happy life.
They liked to communicate with foreigners.
They were terribly interested in her memoir.
What did Murray do first when she travelled to Nepal the second time
She helped four orphans go to college.
She started the Nepal Youth Foundation.
She volunteered to act as an English teacher.
She sent 60 homeless children to the orphanage.
Which best describes Murray
Confident and helpful. B. Energetic and selfless.
C. Creative and professional. D. Kind-hearted and flexible.
What’s the best title of this text
Exercise Regularly. B. Change Your Jobs.
C. Travel to Nepal. D. Live a Purposeful Life. C
Imagine a herd of 100 life-sized elephant sculptures, each crafted by native Indian craftsmen, traveling around the world. This is The Great Elephant Migration — a campaign that uses a unique combination of art, conservation and cultural heritage to raise awareness about wildlife protection and the importance of living in harmony with nature.
By transforming public spaces with these striking sculptures, The Great Elephant Migration aims to inspire a global movement to protect endangered species and promote sustainable coexistence between humans and wildlife.
Each elephant in the migration is a perfect replica (复制品) crafted by The Coexistence Collective, a community of 200 native Indian craftsmen from the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Over the past five years, this collective has beautifully brought to life every elephant they live alongside, capturing each one in sculptural detail.
The sculptures are made from Lantana camara, an invasive plant species causing significant ecological damage in India. By using this material, the project not only transforms a problem into art but also helps in the large-scale removal of Lantana from protected areas, freeing up more space for wildlife and contributing to forest restoration.
The migration began its march in the US on July 4, 2024, and is set to cover several locations across North America and conclude in Los Angeles, California, in September 2025. At each stop, the herd transforms public spaces, inviting local communities and visitors to engage with the sculptures and the stories they represent. The migration serves as a poignant metaphor for the real-life migrations of animals, which are increasingly threatened by human activities and climate change.
The Great Elephant Migration is more than a visual sight; it’s a call to action. Funds
raised through the sale of the elephant sculptures will support conservation projects around the world, particularly those promoting coexistence with wildlife.
What’s the aim of The Great Elephant Migration
To introduce Indian craftsmanship globally.
To highlight the threats faced by Asian elephants.
To promote a global wildlife conservation initiative.
To advocate art as a universal language of wildlife protection.
What does the underlined “a problem” in paragraph 4 refer to
The decline of the population of elephants.
The damage caused by invasive plant species.
The limited space available for animal habitats.
The lack of awareness about wildlife conservation.
How do local communities get involved in the campaign during the tour
By donating to fund wildlife protection.
By creating elephant sculptures in person.
By learning about real-life animal migrations.
By exploring conservation stories behind sculptures
What might be the best title for the text
Elephants Marching Across the U. S.
Lantana Elephants: A Visual Treat
Making an Impact through Conservation
A Moving Celebration of Coexistence and Conservation

How individuals describe their experiences plays a crucial role in shaping emotions and decision-making. However, little research has examined whether language can impact how people experience time alone. To find it out, researchers studied how different terms used to describe time alone affect individuals’ understanding of it and their emotions and behaviors.
In the first study, 500 adults were randomly assigned to evaluate one of five labels describing time alone: me-time, time alone, solitude ( 孤单), being alone, or isolation. They rated their assigned term on several dimensions, including how positive or negative it felt, its perceived impact on well-being, and whether they actively sought or avoided that type of experience.
This study revealed that “me-time” was consistently rated as the most positive, with
participants considering it as beneficial to well-being and something they actively sought out. In contrast, “isolation” was viewed as the least desirable. The other three labels fell somewhere in between.
In the second study, 176 undergraduate students were randomly assigned to a 30-minute solitude period described as either me-time or isolation. Before the session, they completed a survey measuring baseline beliefs about being alone. During the session, they avoided all social interactions, but could engage in non-social activities like reading or writing. Afterward, they rated their emotions, described their thoughts and behaviors, and reassessed their beliefs about being alone.
Those who spent 30 minutes alone after being told they were having “me-time” reported an increase in positive effect, while those who were told they were in “isolation” experienced a decline in positive emotions. Additionally, participants in the “me-time” condition reported more positive beliefs about being alone after the session compared to their baseline beliefs, while those in the “isolation” condition showed no significant change.
Interestingly, choice of terms did not significantly influence the activities participants engaged in. But it did appear to shape thought content, with those in the “isolation” condition being more likely to think about schoolwork, while those in the “me-time” condition were more likely to reflect on personal growth.
The studies, however, involved individuals that consisted primarily of adults and undergraduate students, limiting the generalizability of the findings across diverse populations.
One of the research purposes is to explore .
the benefits of positive emotions
people’s preferences for time alone
how people make decisions while alone
how language shapes people’s perceptions
What can be concluded from the first study
People treasure their time of being alone.
Label selection reflects people’s personality.
People prefer being alone to social interaction.
Terms for time alone affect emotional responses.
Why were the baseline beliefs about being alone rated
To predict future outcomes. B. To ensure accurate understanding.
C. To track potential opinion shifts. D. To group the participants accordingly.
What is the limitation of the research
Contradictory results. B. Restricted participant range.
C. Controlled research duration. D. Unreliable research methods.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 3 分,满分 15 分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I have a drawer full of letters to Santa. Each year my children would write up their
Christmas wish lists. They were polite requests for the latest game or toy. As the children got older, they would give Santa some hints on where to buy their presents. 36
Those letters taught my children a valuable lesson about writing: It has a purpose. Sometimes our purpose is to achieve something; other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. 37 And when writing doesn’t seem to have any purpose or get any kind of meaningful response, then it can be hard to get excited about doing it.
Christmas is a great time of year for children to communicate with others through writing. When children write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. 38 You write “Dear Santa” because you don’t know him personally and you want to show him respect.
39 Texting, online messaging, live chats while playing video games all mean that they are constantly producing written messages. However, because they are usually writing to family and friends, they use informal language most of the time.
There is nothing wrong with this kind of writing. It suits the audience and the purpose and gets the job done. 40 This type of writing won’t be rewarded by the school examiner, nor by a future employer or a potential client. The very best communicators are those who know how to adjust their language to match their audience.
It isn’t that these young people can’t write.
But it is always purposeful-or at least it should be.
The age of pen-and-paper letter writing may have passed.
As a result, each year they received something they wanted.
You write “Hi Nanna and Pop” because you are close to them.
As technology develops, young people are writing more than they ever have.
But if this is the only kind of writing young people do, it will cause problems.

Over five months, every interviewer 44 me: “80% of newcomers fail.” “You lack experience.” Their distrust only fueled my determination. During the final tense interview, the vice president 45 his fingers hesitantly on the desk. Seizing the moment, I locked eyes with him 46 and declared, “If you don’t hire me, you’ll never know what I’m 47 of.”
After a long pause, he agreed — but on one 48 : “To proceed, you must immediately 49 from your current job, complete our three-month training, and pass the Series 7 exam perfectly on the first attempt — no second chances.”
Taking a deep breath, I accepted. Three months later, seeing “Passed” on the screen, I finally breathed a sigh of 50 .

阅读下面材料,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。
I was really starving when I stepped out of the city library after an entire afternoon buried in books. Then I smelt something delicious—the hot dog stand at the street corner.
“One hot dog, please!” I nearly rushed to the stand.
“OK, ready soon!” The vendor (摊主) replied cheerfully. As he handed me the hot dog, he grinned, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I guessed that was the slogan for his little business, for the words were painted in cheerful yellow letters on his cart.
I couldn’t wait to take a bite. The warm bread, the chilli sauce and the juice in the sausage
— it was the best thing in the world! Definitely at that time!
“Five dollars, young lady,” the vendor said, wiping his hands on his apron.
Hot dog in one hand, I reached for my wallet with the other. Just then, “Ouch!” a cry came from behind me. I turned back and found a woman in her 50’s struggling to pick herself up from the ground. Her grocery bag split open with oranges rolling in every direction.
Seeing this, I stuffed the rest of the hot dog into my mouth, picked up the oranges and put them back into her bag. “Are you okay ” I asked with concern.
“Thank you. I didn’t see the pole on the ground,” she breathed. Noticing her hand was wounded, I remembered the Band-Aid (创可贴) in my bag and dug it out. “Thank you so much for your kindness,” the woman said as I carefully applied it to her wound. Across the street, the bus I was about to take was pulling in. Waving a goodbye to the woman, I dashed to the bus stop and barely got aboard before the door closed.
As the bus pulled away, I saw the woman bought a hot dog from the same vendor. On the way, I was always wondering if she would be greeted with the same words, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I was lost in it...
注意:
续写词数应为 150 个左右;
请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But wait — had I forgotten something
“Someone has paid for it,” the vendor smiled.

第一节(满分 15 分) Dear Jenny,
I really like the idea of adding a new column to our English newspaper. It provides a great opportunity to share our ideas. As far as I am concerned,the column “ Fun at my school” is a better choice. My reasons are as follows.
I believe this column will be more engaging for the majority of our classmates. It can cover a wide range of
topics such as club experiences, amazing discoveries and extracurricular activities that take place in our school. They are not only fun, but also reflect our vibrant campus life. Moreover, it can encourage more students to participate in school activities and share their experiences, which will make our newspaper more colorful and appealing.
Thank you for considering my suggestion. Looking forward to your reply and the new column in our newspaper.

But wait — had I forgotten something The bus had gone three stops when a shock hit me: I’d stuffed the hot dog in my mouth and dashed off without paying! My face burned as I imagined the vendor’s angry face. At the next stop, I raced back to the corner. “I’m so sorry! I forgot to pay for the hot dog,” I gasped for air, reaching out for my wallet. The vendor just smiled, wiping his cart. “Don’t worry about it, young lady.” Confused, I stared at him. “But—” “Wait a second,” he cut in, still grinning.
“Someone has paid for it,” the vendor smiled. “The lady you helped with the oranges. She bought a hot dog and said, ‘Please give this to the kind girl who helped me — she deserves the best hot dog in the world!’” My eyes widened. I remembered seeing her at the stand from the bus. The vendor handed me a napkin: “She left this
for you.” On it, a note read: “Kindness is the best sauce.” I bit into an imaginary hot dog, tasting not just bread and chilli, but the warmth of a circle completed — and realized I’d gotten the best hot dog indeed.

Text 10 (文化旅游节目)
W: Hello, everyone. Welcome to today's programme Culture Travel. Today I will talk about America. No matter where you go in the United States, you'll find one or more very good golf courses. Both men and women,
young and old in America take part in this sport. Therefore, people are very likely to believe that golf is the most popular hobby in America. But as a matter of fact, it isn't. American football dates back to the 19th century. If you have ever been to a football game in America, you'd be surprised to see that the number of audience can be up to twenty thousand.
This, however, is not the most popular hobby, either. So, what is the most popular hobby in America
Most surprisingly, the most popular hobby with the largest group of people is home gardening. As we can see, some people grow flowers and vegetables and others are very fond of caring for the grass. With evergreen grass and beautiful flowers in the gardens, everyone seems to enjoy having a lively environment. Yes, home gardening is indeed the most popular hobby as it offers everyone the pleasure from nature.
