Four Best National Parks in Canada
Waterton Lakes National Park
Waterton Lakes National Park is located in the south end of the province and features the beautiful grasslands, lakes, and of course, the Rocky Mountains. As the park’s name suggests, there are plenty of lakes to enjoyed. If you’ re feeling brave, you can jump in for a swim— but the water is a little cold, even in summer. However, there’s no better way to cool down quickly after a tiring hike.
Cape Breton Highlands National Park
Surrounded by the sparkling waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Nova Scotia’s Cape Breton Highlands National Park features some of the most beautiful landscapes you’ll find in the entire country. The world-famous Cabot Trail winds through the park, so you can experience the rolling views without ever leaving your car.
Pacific Rim National Park Reserve
Near the town of Tofino, on the west coast of Vancouver Island lies Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, stretching along the shores of the Pacific Ocean. If you want to be awed (敬畏)by Mother Nature, this is a national park you won’t want to miss.
Endless amazing beaches are parts of the main highlights of Tofino. They’ re not only beautiful to see and perfect for long walks, but also serve as playgrounds for surfers on a year-round basis.
Gros Morne National Park
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gros Morne National Park features 1,805 square kilometers of incredible scenery on the west coast of Newfoundland. One of the most recognizable views from the park is the Western Brook Pond Fjord, which you can get to either by hiking a multi-day trek (跋涉) or by catching a boat ride and taking a shorter three-to four-hour hike.

Expert runners around the world consider a little under two hours to be a good half marathon time, but this number mostly has young, able-bodied competitors in mind. That’s why when 75-year-old Queruben Abella finished a 21-kilometer race in one hour and 56 minutes, people around his native Philippines and the world were simply in awe. Most amazingly, he did it in a pair of broken shoes.
Abella, who ran his first marathon at 14 and has continued to enjoy this practice for decades, is well versed in the running world. That’s why, although his shoes were bursting open at the sides, he preferred them over other pairs. To him, they were light and comfortable, and water didn’t get stuck inside when it rained. On top of that, they’ve taken him to many places.
The elderly runner’s impressive achievement happened at the 3rd Alturas Pink Run, on October 5. The race was organized to raise funds around Breast Cancer Awareness month — particularly, for 30patients currently undergoing chemotherapy (化疗). “It is amazing to see everyone so happy and passionate to join Pink Run,” he said. “It is such a worthy cause. And I would love to continue supporting it in the future.”
Mary Grace Ido Bernaldez, who is in charge of the Alturas Pink Run, said that Abella had been joining the marathon since 2022. “At 75, he is not just a runner; he is an inspiration to all of us. Abella’s determination teaches us that there are no limits to what we can do.”
Days after the race, the organizer visited Abella in his village, presenting him with a new pair of shoes — the third pair he had been gifted after the race, which he happily posed with for a Facebook picture. Since he hopes to be back next year, he may be proudly wearing a new pair in 2025.
4. What does the underlined word “versed” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Skilled. B. Interested. C. Weak. D. Strict.
5. What can we infer about Abella’s shoes from the text
A. They were brand new and very expensive.
B. They were fashionable but uncomfortable.
C. They were worn out but comfortable for him.
D. They were specially designed for marathon running.
6. What is the purpose of the 3rd Alturas Pink Run
A To promote tourism in the Philippines.
B. To collect money for breast cancer patients.
C. To celebrate the birthday of Queruben Abella.
D. To honor the achievements of elderly athletes.
7. What is Mary Grace Ido Bernaldez’s attitude towards Abella
A. Admirable. B. Critical. C. Indifferent. D. Curious.
C
Many woodland creatures enjoy eating acorns (橡子), but nothing is quite like the acorn woodpecker (啄木鸟). This medium-sized woodpecker is found across Central America and the western United States. They use their impressive pecking ability to create an incredible storage system for their precious acorns.
Acorn woodpeckers create storage trees out of dead branches, trees, houses, or even poles. Used year after year, the birds store their winter food supply in the perfectly formed holes they peck in the dead wood. Given that these impressive food stores can have upwards of 50,000holes, they aren’t just the work of a single acorn woodpecker. The species lives in family groups of up to 12 birds that share nests and even raise chicks together. They also work as a team to build the storage trees, which future generations will use to keep themselves fed throughout the year.
While there might be concerns that other animals could find these storage trees and take the acorns for themselves, the woodpeckers ensure that won’t happen. They manage to pack the acorns in so tightly that anyone looking for a free snack would have a hard time removing them from the holes.
As the acorns dry out, they become smaller in size, making them easier for the acorn woodpeckers to remove once it’s feeding time. To ensure that nothing is too loose before they’re ready to eat, a member of the group checks all the acorns from time to time and moves any shrunken (皱缩的) acorns to a smaller hole. These complex social behaviors have long attracted scientists, and are widely studied.
Though acorn woodpeckers are closely associated with acorns, it’s actually not their primary food source throughout the year. They prefer insects and fruits, relying on their backup food source of acorns to get them through the winter.
8. What’s the main characteristic of acorn woodpeckers according to Paragraph 1
A. Their love for acorns. B. Their ability to peck.
C. Their natural habitat. D. Their medium size.
9. What can we know about acorn woodpeckers
A. They live in family groups and work together.
B. They store food in holes of living trees.
C. Their year-round main food source is the acron.
D. They exist across the United States.
10. Why do acorn woodpeckers pack the acorns tightly in the holes
A. To help the acorns dry out faster.
B. To let acorns easier to remove later.
C. To make the storage trees look neat.
D. To prevent other animals taking the acorns.
11. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. The Diet of Acorn Woodpeckers
B. The Social Life of Acorn Woodpeckers
C. The Acorn Woodpecker’s Family Structure
D. The Acorn Woodpecker’s Amazing Acorn Storage
D
I think almost everyone has seen it, especially at Christmas or perhaps at a birthday party. A child gets an amazing number of presents and begins to open them. It becomes a race, tearing the wrapping off of each present and finally getting to the last one. Not spending significant time or attention with any specific toy, the child asks, “Is this all there is ”
This raises an interesting question: Does the number of toys affect the amount of time a young child spends playing with each toy and the quality of play with each toy
To test the theory that an environment with fewer toys would lead to a higher quality of play, Dauch and his colleagues designed a clever laboratory study. The researchers chose 36 kids aged from 18 to 30 months and their parents. The participants came from similar socioeconomic backgrounds and had typical development of personal-social, motor, and cognitive (认知的) skills.
Thirty-two different toys were used in this study. The toys came from four categories of toys: (1) educational, (2) pretend (toys that suggest themed play), (3) action (building, opening, twisting), and (4) vehicles. Data collection took place in two similar playrooms.
There were two conditions for toy play: a four-toy and a 16-toy condition. Toys were randomly selected from the four categories of toys and assigned to the four or 16 toy conditions. Each kid and caregiver attended three one-hour sessions in which observers collected data. They recorded three types of data.
They found a significant difference in the quality of the kids’ play when there were four versus 16 toys. Kids in the four-toy condition engaged in a greater quality of play compared to the 16-toy condition. They found that having fewer toys can lead to better play, while a greater number of toys (16 compared to four) seemed to be a distraction (干扰), which caused the kids to abandon play with a toy to explore the others.
Control over attention is a key skill children need to master. Too many toys create distractions. Kids played twice as long with toys in the four versus the 16-toy condition and more imaginative ways.
12. Why did Dauch and his colleagues conduct the study
A To assess the cognitive skills of kids.
B. To understand how kids choose toys.
C. To study how many toys affect play quality.
D. To compare different categories of toys.
13. How did the researchers ensure the participants were alike
A. They selected kids who are boys.
B. They selected kids of the same age.
C. They selected kids who hadn’t played with toys before.
D. They selected kids with similar backgrounds and development.
14 What conclusion did Dauch and his colleagues draw from their study
A. Educational toys benefit kids most. B. Fewer toys improve the quality of play.
C. More toys always lead to better play. D. Fewer toys result in abandoning play.
15. Where might the text be taken from
A. A travel magazine. B. A toy company’s website.
C. A child psychology book. D. A news article about education.

Following the announcement that a trendy bookstore in Xi’an is shutting down, the question about the sustainability (持续性) of physical bookstores has once again started a heated discussion. Physical bookstores need to find new ways to adapt in the face of e-commerce, and it’s crucial to maintain cultural spaces to enhance customer service. ____16____

A. Physical bookstores still face a series of problems.
B. This is key to turning trendy bookstores into sustainable businesses.

D. Focusing on great book selection and meaningful cultural services is vital for them.
E. Another challenge for trendy bookstores is a lack of attention given to book selection.
F. Some trendy bookstores have gone too far into the field of commercial entertainment.

第二节续写(满分25分)
47. 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。
A day before Morgan Perigo’s 83rd birthday last month, an unexpected package showed up on his doorstep. In it was the 1965 MoMaster University graduation ring he lost in 1977. The package was from Alex Davis, a professional free diver and fisherman who runs a tourism business in Barbados.
During a slow week for the tourism trade. Davis checked webcams (网络摄像头) showing a spot he was interested in after it had been stirred up by Hurricane Beryl earlier in the year. Suddenly, what were once picturesque sandy beaches are now revealing numerous exposed rocks. Davis recalled, “With that in mind, I’d like to visit a place where it looks like a significant amount of sand has been removed. ”
Diving with a metal detector, Davis at first found the usual rusted nails (生锈的钉子), bottle caps and coins. Then he noticed something interesting about the coins. “They were from the 70’s and 80’s and I started thinking wow, I’m in a zone where we’ve clearly got a lot of old stuff,” he said. Then his metal detector started to make a different sound. Knowing the sound meant gold, he began digging.
After digging through layers of sand and rock, Davis unearthed a ring with a dark red stone in the middle. Still underwater, he noticed the ring had not corroded (腐蚀) and had a jeweler’s mark — signaling it was made of pure gold.
When Davis got back to the land, he made the carving bigger, showing the words, “McMaster University 1965,” and the initials “FMP.” Davis recalled, “Once I saw that, I thought there was enough information here to try and get this back to the person. We’ve got the school, we’ve got the graduation year and we’ve got three initials.”
Davis immediately searched the McMaster University website and messaged the leader of the university’s Alumni Association. The email described how Davis discovered the ring and the personal information on the ring that might help the university identify its owner.
注意：
1.续写词数应150左右;

The search identified Frederick Morgan Perigo, and the school quickly told him.

Deeply moved by the gesture, Perigo decided to express his thanks in a special way.

Looking forward to our virtual meet-up.
Yours,

The search identified Frederick Morgan Perigo, and the school quickly told him. Perigo, now living a quiet life in a small town, was surprised when he received the call. He had long given up hope of ever seing his graduation ring again, having lost it during a family vacation over four decades ago. The memory of that sunny day in I977 when he misplaced it while playing with his children flashed back. He never imagined that one day, a kind-hearted stranger from halfway across the world would find it and make every effort to return it.
Deeply moved by the gesture, Perigo decided to express his thanks in a special way. He reached out to Davis, expressing his heartfelt appreciation and arranging to send a meaningful gift to show his thanks. A few days later, a package arrived at Davis’s tourism business, containing a beautifully framed photograph of Perigo wearing his graduation ring, along with a heartfelt letter of thanks. It was an act that warmed Davis’s heart and reminded him of the deep impact small acts of kindness can have on people’s lives.
