Selina Zhang, a high schooler, has invented a trap that could potentially get rid of lanternflies in the city. She first noticed this pest in grade school when she was visiting a market near her hometown. The colorful bugs caught her eye as she had never seen an insect like it.
Zhang s first encounter with the spotted lanternfly relates to the quote, “Not all that glitters is gold.” This bug with bright red underwings standing out from black forewings might be pretty to look at. However, it has damaged local agricultural industry for decades, and the city has been unable to remove this problem.
This insect has an appetite for most plants and can feed on most crops and trees, but does not harm humans or animals. However, it could reduce the quality of life of people living in heavily affected areas. It is known to be annoying in outdoor areas as they can lay their egg masses on trees and even vehicles.
Zhang eventually realized that this insect posed a threat to Garden City and decided to do something about it. Most people choose insecticides（杀虫剂）to handle it, but this can leave harmful remains affecting crucial pollinators. Some others use a sticky band wrapped around a tree trunk to trap pests. This method is also unsafe as it can also trap other small animals.
In search of an ecologically acceptable method, Zhang got inspiration from chess boards and the “Dance Dance Revolution”. She conducted numerous field observations for weeks on end, studied how they grew over time and located areas they chose to gather. After her study, Zhang knew she wanted to copy the tree of heaven as a trap. She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.
24.What does the quote “Not all that glitters is gold” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Things looking valuable may be worthless.
B. Zhang s hometown fails to get rid of the bug.
C. Bodies of the beautiful lanternfly are glowing.
D. The bug harms agricultural industry despite its beauty.
25.What can be learned about lanternflies
A. They live on greens and animals.
B. People hate them laying eggs everywhere.
C. They may have a bad effect on people s life.
D. Their underwings are shorter than their forewings.
26.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The source of the trap. B. The process of inventing the trap.
C. The application of the trap. D. The challenges of designing the trap.
27.Which of the following can best describe Zhang
A. Persistent and innovative. B. Creative and modest.
C. Reliable and knowledgeable. D. Intelligent and confident.
C
Roughly 42% of Americans are nearsighted today, compared to 25% in 1971. The World Health Organization predicts that about half of the world s population will have nearsightedness by 2050. It s apparent that our eyesight is becoming increasingly poor, but researchers are only now beginning to understand why.
Generally a childhood phenomenon, nearsightedness happens when the eyeball grows too long from front to back, taking on more of an oval（椭圆形）shape rather than a sphere（球形）. Eyes have a “stop signal” so that they grow consisting with the head, explains Gregory Schwartz, an associate professor at Northwestern University. However, that signal can be interrupted by genetic and environmental factors, which leads to our eyeballs growing a bit too much, leading to far-off objects looking out of focus. Signs you might have nearsightedness also include headaches, as well as eye stress and tiredness when doing certain activities such as driving or playing sports.
The increased use of screens, most of which are high contrast, like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, overstimulating our eyes, causing more eye growth in children and less time spent outdoors are to blame. A 2017 study published in JAMA Ophthalmology found a connection between increased natural light exposure and a decrease in nearsightedness, particularly in children and young adults. Exposure to natural light stimulates dopamine, a chemical which helps regulate normal growth and development of the eyeball. Indoor lighting doesn t do the trick.
Most people s vision will stabilize in their teens, but some people develop nearsightedness later in life, typically between ages 20 and 40. Poor eyesight isn t the only downside; people with nearsightedness are at a higher risk of developing eye issues as they age. That s why regular eye exercise is crucial.
28.What is the function of the figures in paragraph 1
A. To draw the attention of WHO.
B. To introduce the research methods.
C. To explain the causes of nearsightedness.
D. To illustrate the seriousness of nearsightedness.
29.What happens to the eyeballs of nearsighted children
A. They are out of shape.
B. They match the growth of heads.
C. They grow into a sphere.
D. They distinguish far-off objects easily.
30.What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The overuse of screens. B. The benefits of protecting eyes.
C. The causes of nearsightedness. D. The influence of exposure to light.
31.What might the author continue talking about
A. Eye issues of ageing. B. Key factors to affect eyesight.
C. The ways to exercise eyes. D. The downside of nearsightedness.
D
When we encounter new information, the brain quickly goes into the pattern-recognition mode. If it reminds us of something we ve encountered before, we know how to respond. But what will happen when the new information doesn t “fit” with the existing understanding That s when the brain really gets excited. The brain doesn t just detect new information—it needs novelty, the quality of being different and interesting.
As Judy Willis, MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best, a part of the brain, the Reticular Activating System (RAS), filters（过滤）incoming information, deciding which data can be processed automatically and which deserves our full attention. Surprise and novelty are the attention-grabbers. In the classroom, this means that changing routines, asking students to analyze similarities and differences, organizing field trips, and inviting guest visitors all help keep learning fresh.
In his article How the Brain Learns Best, psychiatrist and child psychologist Bruce Perry explains why repetitive classroom activities, such as lectures or worksheets, limit the brain s desire for novelty and can intervene in learning. “Only four to eight minutes of pure factual lecture can be tolerated before the brain seeks other information, either internal (daydreaming) or external (Who is that man walking down the hall ). If the teacher is not providing that novelty, the brain will go elsewhere,” he writes.
Integrating a strong arts program is one way educators can capture students curiosity and keep them engaged. According to a recent landmark report from the President s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, the benefits of studying the arts go far beyond enrichment. Research found that a high-quality program can improve student engagement, focus attention, heighten educational ambitions, and increase intellectual risk-taking. And planning inquiry-driven projects that are consistent with students interests will boost engagement and cut down on boredom, which is actually a stressor for young brains.
32.How does the brain deal with information according to Judy Willis
A. It classifies the information.
B. It ignores familiar information.
C. It analyzes the information for long.
D. It stores new information automatically.
33.What does Bruce Perry argue in his article
A. Keeping routines significantly improves learning.
B. Giving lectures is the most effective way of teaching.
C. The brain desires novelty to stay engaged in learning.
D. External surroundings mean more than internal seeking.
34.How does the author develop the text
A. By making comparisons. B. By quoting professional views.
C. By introducing an experiment. D. By presenting a personal statement.
35.What can be the best title for the text
A. The Importance of Novelty in Education
B. The Brain s Response to New Information
C. Effective Classroom Activities for Learning
D. Understanding the Reticular Activating System

In Arizona, there was a high school where many students were poor. Among them were four friends: Juan, Oscar, Luis, and Alfredo. They were the sons of Mexican immigrants and often felt ignored and overlooked by others. However, they all shared a passion for mechanics. One day, two science teachers decided to enter their school in a challenging underwater robotics competition sponsored by NASA（美国宇航局）. The four boys were excited at the prospect of winning a prize and signed up right away.
With passion, they started reaching out to mechanical engineers for help in designing their robot. They learned that they needed a special material often used in many underwater projects. Sadly, they didn t have enough money to buy it, so they decided to make it on their own. They searched the city and gathered whatever they could find to build their robot. With the support and guidance of their teachers, they managed to create a working robot using just metal and wires.
While they worked on their project, each boy faced personal struggles. Juan felt the pressure of family responsibilities; Oscar was afraid of failing; Luis was laughed at by classmates because of his accent; Alfredo wished to feel accepted by others. Despite these challenges, they supported each other and stayed determined. After a few test runs of their robot, they headed to the competition. When they arrived at the main pool area, they saw college teams in matching clothes, showcasing robots funded by big companies. The boys felt a bit nervous but decided to put their robot in the water for a test run.

1. 根据第二段“You will be amazed at historical wonders as you climb the steps of Sigiriya, tour the muralled caves of Dambulla and walk along the walls of Galle Fort（古堡）. (当你攀登锡吉里亚的阶梯、游览丹布拉的壁画洞穴以及漫步在加勒堡的城墙时，你将会对这些历史奇观感到惊叹。)”可知，游客可以在斯里兰卡的壁画洞穴中欣赏到历史奇观。
2. 根据文章·Transportation部分“When spending time on your own, you may choose to visit a site that requires transportation not in the plan after informing your expedition leader.(在您自行安排时间时，在通知您的探险队长后，您可以选择参观一个不在计划中需要额外安排交通方式的景点。)”可知，游客可以在旅途中选择计划外的交通方式。
3. 根据文章DATES & PRICES部分“DATE：Mar.15—25, 2026; DOUBLE OCCUPANCY: $ 8,295(日期：2026年3月15日-25日；双人：8295美元)”及最后一段“Prices are per person based on double or single occupancy（入住）and booking before October 5, 2025 can bring you $400 saving per person.(价格基于双人或单人入住，在2025年10月5日之前预订，每人可节省400美元。)”可知，一对夫妇至少要为2026年3月的旅行支付8295*2-400*2=15790美元。
24~27.【答案】D、C、B、A
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了高中生Selina Zhang如何通过自己的观察和创新，发明了一种可能有效控制城市中入侵性害虫——斑点灯笼蝇的方法。
1. 根据第二段“This bug with bright red underwings standing out from black forewings might be pretty to look at. However, it has damaged local agricultural industry for decades, and the city has been unable to remove this problem.(这只虫子有着鲜红的下翼，从黑色的前翼中脱颖而出，看起来可能很漂亮。然而，它已经破坏了当地农业几十年，城市一直无法解决这个问题。)”可知，灯笼虫看起来很漂亮，但实际上对农业造成了破坏，这与“并非所有闪光的都是金子”的含义相符， Not all that glitters is gold的意思是“这种虫子虽然美丽，却破坏了农业”。故选D。
2. 根据第三段This insect has an appetite for most plants and can feed on most crops and trees, but does not harm humans or animals. However, it could reduce the quality of life of people living in heavily affected areas. ( 这种昆虫对大多数植物都有食欲，可以以大多数作物和树木为食，但不会伤害人类或动物。然而，这可能会降低生活在受影响严重地区的人们的生活质量。)可知，灯笼虫对人类的生活有负面影响。故选C。
3. 根据最后一段She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.( 然后，她为这棵树设计了一个电网，利用机器学习杀死降落的灯笼蝇。她最终创造了一棵太阳能驱动、自清洁的“树”，可以吸引斑点灯笼虫，并用电子网将其清除。)可知，本段主要讲述了张发明陷阱的过程。故选B。
4. 阅读全文以及第四段 Zhang eventually realized that this insect posed a threat to Garden City and decided to do something about it.(张最终意识到这种昆虫对花园城市构成了威胁，决定采取行动。)”以及最后一段 She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.(然后她为这棵树设计了一个电网，利用机器学习杀死落在上面的灯笼虫。她最终创造了一棵太阳能驱动的、自清洁的“树”，吸引斑点灯笼虫，用电子网去除虫子。)”可知，张在发现问题后，坚持不懈地寻找解决方案，并最终创新性地发明了一种陷阱，他是个坚持不懈，勇于创新的人。故选A。
28~31.【答案】D、A、C、C
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍人们眼睛近视背后的主要原因。
1. 根据第一段的“Roughly 42% of Americans are nearsighted today, compared to 25% in 1971. The World Health Organization predicts that about half of the world’s population will have myopia, or nearsightedness, by 2050.（如今，大约42%的美国人患有近视，而1971年这一比例为25%。世界卫生组织预测，到2050年，世界上大约一半的人口将患有近视。）”可知作者的主要目的是用这些数据来展示近视问题的严重性。
2. 从文章第二段“Generally a childhood phenomenon, nearsightedness happens when the eyeball grows too long from front to back, taking on more of an oval（椭圆形） shape rather than a sphere（球形）. （近视通常是一种儿童现象，当眼球从前到后长得太长，呈椭圆形而不是球形时就会发生近视。）”可知小孩子近视之后孩子的眼球走形了。
3. 根据第三段“ The increased use of screens, most of which are high contrast, like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, overstimulating our eyes, causing more eye growth in children and less time spent outdoors are to blame.（屏幕使用量的增加，其中大多数是高对比度的，比如白色页面上的黑色文本，或者深色背景上的浅色文本，过度刺激我们的眼睛，导致儿童眼睛生长更多，户外时间更少，这是罪魁祸首。）”可以看出，本段主要讲述近视形成的原因。
4. 从文章最后一段最后一句话“That’s why regular eye exercise is crucial（这就是为什么定期的眼保健操是至关重要的。）”可以看出，文章接下来会讨论锻炼眼睛的具体方式方法。
32~35.【答案】A、C、B、A
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新奇在教育中的重要性，以及如何通过新奇来吸引学生的注意力和提高学习效果。
1. 根据第二段As Judy Willis，MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best，a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System filters incoming information，deciding which data can be processed automatically and which deserves our full attention.（正如医学博士朱迪 威利斯在《你的孩子如何学习得最好》一书中解释的那样，大脑中有一个叫做网状激活系统的部分过滤传入的信息，决定哪些数据可以自动处理，哪些值得我们充分关注。）可知，大脑会对信息进行分类，决定哪些信息可以自动处理，哪些需要我们全神贯注。
2. 根据第三段Only four to eight minutes of pure factual lecture can be tolerated before the brain seeks other information，either internal （daydreaming） or external （Who is that man walking down the hall？）.If the teacher is not providing that novelty，the brain will go elsewhere（只有4到8分钟的纯事实性演讲是可以容忍的，然后大脑就会寻找其他信息，要么是内部信息（做白日梦），要么是外部信息（走在大厅里的那个人是谁？）如果老师不能提供这种新鲜感，大脑就会转向别处）可知，Bruce Perry认为大脑渴望新奇的事物以保持学习的参与度。
3. 根据第三段In his article How the Brain Learns Best，psychiatrist and child psychologist Bruce Perry explains why repetitive classroom activities，such as lectures or worksheets，limit the brain's desire for novelty and can interfere with learning.（精神病学家和儿童心理学家布鲁斯 佩里在他的文章《大脑如何最好地学习》中解释了为什么重复的课堂活动，如讲座或工作表，限制了大脑对新鲜事物的渴望，并可能干扰学习。）和第二段As Judy Willis，MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best，a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System filters incoming information，（正如医学博士朱迪 威利斯在《你的孩子如何学习得最好》一书中解释的那样，大脑中有一个叫做网状激活系统的部分过滤传入的信息）可知，文章通过引用专业人士的观点来展开论述。
4. 根据第一段But what will happen when the new information doesn't "fit" with the existing understanding？That's when the brain really gets excited.The brain doesn't just detect new information— it needs novelty.（但是，当新的信息与现有的理解不"吻合"时，会发生什么呢？那是大脑真正兴奋的时候。大脑不只是检测新信息--它还需要新奇的东西。）可知，文章主要介绍了新奇在教育中的重要性，以及如何通过新奇来吸引学生的注意力和提高学习效果。所以短文的最佳标题为A"新奇在教育中的重要性"。

67.【范文】Unfortunately, their robot began to leak and failed. As they watched their creation disappear under the water, they felt very disappointed. For an instant, it seemed like all their hard work was in vain. But instead of giving up, Juan encouraged the group, "We can fix this! We've come too far to let one setback/obstacle stop us." Motivated by their shared passion, they quickly came up with ideas. They remembered an old fishing net that Luis' uncle used, which could help make their design stronger. With limited time, the boys hurried to make the needed changes, determined to try again.
This time, their robot performed very well. It glided/moved smoothly through the water, skillfully avoiding obstacles, and cheers erupted from the crowd. The boys shared proud looks, and their earlier worries disappeared. They felt relieved as they remembered why they started this journey together. At the end of the competition, they received an unexpected award for "Most Creative Design", showing their cleverness despite the challenges. At that moment, they realized that their true success was not just in winning a prize, but in their strong friendship and ability to overcome difficulties. This experience sparked great passion in each of them, inspiring dreams of future innovations in engineering and technology.

Selina Zhang, a high schooler, has invented a trap that could potentially get rid of lanternflies in the city. She first noticed this pest in grade school when she was visiting a market near her hometown. The colorful bugs caught her eye as she had never seen an insect like it.
Zhang s first encounter with the spotted lanternfly relates to the quote, “Not all that glitters is gold.” This bug with bright red underwings standing out from black forewings might be pretty to look at. However, it has damaged local agricultural industry for decades, and the city has been unable to remove this problem.
This insect has an appetite for most plants and can feed on most crops and trees, but does not harm humans or animals. However, it could reduce the quality of life of people living in heavily affected areas. It is known to be annoying in outdoor areas as they can lay their egg masses on trees and even vehicles.
Zhang eventually realized that this insect posed a threat to Garden City and decided to do something about it. Most people choose insecticides（杀虫剂）to handle it, but this can leave harmful remains affecting crucial pollinators. Some others use a sticky band wrapped around a tree trunk to trap pests. This method is also unsafe as it can also trap other small animals.
In search of an ecologically acceptable method, Zhang got inspiration from chess boards and the “Dance Dance Revolution”. She conducted numerous field observations for weeks on end, studied how they grew over time and located areas they chose to gather. After her study, Zhang knew she wanted to copy the tree of heaven as a trap. She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.
24.What does the quote “Not all that glitters is gold” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Things looking valuable may be worthless.
B. Zhang s hometown fails to get rid of the bug.
C. Bodies of the beautiful lanternfly are glowing.
D. The bug harms agricultural industry despite its beauty.
25.What can be learned about lanternflies
A. They live on greens and animals.
B. People hate them laying eggs everywhere.
C. They may have a bad effect on people s life.
D. Their underwings are shorter than their forewings.
26.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The source of the trap. B. The process of inventing the trap.
C. The application of the trap. D. The challenges of designing the trap.
27.Which of the following can best describe Zhang
A. Persistent and innovative. B. Creative and modest.
C. Reliable and knowledgeable. D. Intelligent and confident.
C
Roughly 42% of Americans are nearsighted today, compared to 25% in 1971. The World Health Organization predicts that about half of the world s population will have nearsightedness by 2050. It s apparent that our eyesight is becoming increasingly poor, but researchers are only now beginning to understand why.
Generally a childhood phenomenon, nearsightedness happens when the eyeball grows too long from front to back, taking on more of an oval（椭圆形）shape rather than a sphere（球形）. Eyes have a “stop signal” so that they grow consisting with the head, explains Gregory Schwartz, an associate professor at Northwestern University. However, that signal can be interrupted by genetic and environmental factors, which leads to our eyeballs growing a bit too much, leading to far-off objects looking out of focus. Signs you might have nearsightedness also include headaches, as well as eye stress and tiredness when doing certain activities such as driving or playing sports.
The increased use of screens, most of which are high contrast, like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, overstimulating our eyes, causing more eye growth in children and less time spent outdoors are to blame. A 2017 study published in JAMA Ophthalmology found a connection between increased natural light exposure and a decrease in nearsightedness, particularly in children and young adults. Exposure to natural light stimulates dopamine, a chemical which helps regulate normal growth and development of the eyeball. Indoor lighting doesn t do the trick.
Most people s vision will stabilize in their teens, but some people develop nearsightedness later in life, typically between ages 20 and 40. Poor eyesight isn t the only downside; people with nearsightedness are at a higher risk of developing eye issues as they age. That s why regular eye exercise is crucial.
28.What is the function of the figures in paragraph 1
A. To draw the attention of WHO.
B. To introduce the research methods.
C. To explain the causes of nearsightedness.
D. To illustrate the seriousness of nearsightedness.
29.What happens to the eyeballs of nearsighted children
A. They are out of shape.
B. They match the growth of heads.
C. They grow into a sphere.
D. They distinguish far-off objects easily.
30.What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The overuse of screens. B. The benefits of protecting eyes.
C. The causes of nearsightedness. D. The influence of exposure to light.
31.What might the author continue talking about
A. Eye issues of ageing. B. Key factors to affect eyesight.
C. The ways to exercise eyes. D. The downside of nearsightedness.
D
When we encounter new information, the brain quickly goes into the pattern-recognition mode. If it reminds us of something we ve encountered before, we know how to respond. But what will happen when the new information doesn t “fit” with the existing understanding That s when the brain really gets excited. The brain doesn t just detect new information—it needs novelty, the quality of being different and interesting.
As Judy Willis, MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best, a part of the brain, the Reticular Activating System (RAS), filters（过滤）incoming information, deciding which data can be processed automatically and which deserves our full attention. Surprise and novelty are the attention-grabbers. In the classroom, this means that changing routines, asking students to analyze similarities and differences, organizing field trips, and inviting guest visitors all help keep learning fresh.
In his article How the Brain Learns Best, psychiatrist and child psychologist Bruce Perry explains why repetitive classroom activities, such as lectures or worksheets, limit the brain s desire for novelty and can intervene in learning. “Only four to eight minutes of pure factual lecture can be tolerated before the brain seeks other information, either internal (daydreaming) or external (Who is that man walking down the hall ). If the teacher is not providing that novelty, the brain will go elsewhere,” he writes.
Integrating a strong arts program is one way educators can capture students curiosity and keep them engaged. According to a recent landmark report from the President s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, the benefits of studying the arts go far beyond enrichment. Research found that a high-quality program can improve student engagement, focus attention, heighten educational ambitions, and increase intellectual risk-taking. And planning inquiry-driven projects that are consistent with students interests will boost engagement and cut down on boredom, which is actually a stressor for young brains.
32.How does the brain deal with information according to Judy Willis
A. It classifies the information.
B. It ignores familiar information.
C. It analyzes the information for long.
D. It stores new information automatically.
33.What does Bruce Perry argue in his article
A. Keeping routines significantly improves learning.
B. Giving lectures is the most effective way of teaching.
C. The brain desires novelty to stay engaged in learning.
D. External surroundings mean more than internal seeking.
34.How does the author develop the text
A. By making comparisons. B. By quoting professional views.
C. By introducing an experiment. D. By presenting a personal statement.
35.What can be the best title for the text
A. The Importance of Novelty in Education
B. The Brain s Response to New Information
C. Effective Classroom Activities for Learning
D. Understanding the Reticular Activating System

67.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。
In Arizona, there was a high school where many students were poor. Among them were four friends: Juan, Oscar, Luis, and Alfredo. They were the sons of Mexican immigrants and often felt ignored and overlooked by others. However, they all shared a passion for mechanics. One day, two science teachers decided to enter their school in a challenging underwater robotics competition sponsored by NASA（美国宇航局）. The four boys were excited at the prospect of winning a prize and signed up right away.
With passion, they started reaching out to mechanical engineers for help in designing their robot. They learned that they needed a special material often used in many underwater projects. Sadly, they didn t have enough money to buy it, so they decided to make it on their own. They searched the city and gathered whatever they could find to build their robot. With the support and guidance of their teachers, they managed to create a working robot using just metal and wires.
While they worked on their project, each boy faced personal struggles. Juan felt the pressure of family responsibilities; Oscar was afraid of failing; Luis was laughed at by classmates because of his accent; Alfredo wished to feel accepted by others. Despite these challenges, they supported each other and stayed determined. After a few test runs of their robot, they headed to the competition. When they arrived at the main pool area, they saw college teams in matching clothes, showcasing robots funded by big companies. The boys felt a bit nervous but decided to put their robot in the water for a test run.

Unfortunately, their robot began to leak and failed. This time, their robot performed very well.
答案和解析
21~23.【答案】D、C、B
【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了斯里兰卡旅游的相关信息。
1. 根据第二段“You will be amazed at historical wonders as you climb the steps of Sigiriya, tour the muralled caves of Dambulla and walk along the walls of Galle Fort（古堡）. (当你攀登锡吉里亚的阶梯、游览丹布拉的壁画洞穴以及漫步在加勒堡的城墙时，你将会对这些历史奇观感到惊叹。)”可知，游客可以在斯里兰卡的壁画洞穴中欣赏到历史奇观。
2. 根据文章·Transportation部分“When spending time on your own, you may choose to visit a site that requires transportation not in the plan after informing your expedition leader.(在您自行安排时间时，在通知您的探险队长后，您可以选择参观一个不在计划中需要额外安排交通方式的景点。)”可知，游客可以在旅途中选择计划外的交通方式。
3. 根据文章DATES & PRICES部分“DATE：Mar.15—25, 2026; DOUBLE OCCUPANCY: $ 8,295(日期：2026年3月15日-25日；双人：8295美元)”及最后一段“Prices are per person based on double or single occupancy（入住）and booking before October 5, 2025 can bring you $400 saving per person.(价格基于双人或单人入住，在2025年10月5日之前预订，每人可节省400美元。)”可知，一对夫妇至少要为2026年3月的旅行支付8295*2-400*2=15790美元。
24~27.【答案】D、C、B、A
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了高中生Selina Zhang如何通过自己的观察和创新，发明了一种可能有效控制城市中入侵性害虫——斑点灯笼蝇的方法。
1. 根据第二段“This bug with bright red underwings standing out from black forewings might be pretty to look at. However, it has damaged local agricultural industry for decades, and the city has been unable to remove this problem.(这只虫子有着鲜红的下翼，从黑色的前翼中脱颖而出，看起来可能很漂亮。然而，它已经破坏了当地农业几十年，城市一直无法解决这个问题。)”可知，灯笼虫看起来很漂亮，但实际上对农业造成了破坏，这与“并非所有闪光的都是金子”的含义相符， Not all that glitters is gold的意思是“这种虫子虽然美丽，却破坏了农业”。故选D。
2. 根据第三段This insect has an appetite for most plants and can feed on most crops and trees, but does not harm humans or animals. However, it could reduce the quality of life of people living in heavily affected areas. ( 这种昆虫对大多数植物都有食欲，可以以大多数作物和树木为食，但不会伤害人类或动物。然而，这可能会降低生活在受影响严重地区的人们的生活质量。)可知，灯笼虫对人类的生活有负面影响。故选C。
3. 根据最后一段She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.( 然后，她为这棵树设计了一个电网，利用机器学习杀死降落的灯笼蝇。她最终创造了一棵太阳能驱动、自清洁的“树”，可以吸引斑点灯笼虫，并用电子网将其清除。)可知，本段主要讲述了张发明陷阱的过程。故选B。
4. 阅读全文以及第四段 Zhang eventually realized that this insect posed a threat to Garden City and decided to do something about it.(张最终意识到这种昆虫对花园城市构成了威胁，决定采取行动。)”以及最后一段 She then designed an electric net for this tree, using machine learning to kill the lanternflies that landed. And she finally created an solar-powered, self-cleaning “tree” that attracts the spotted lanternfly, removing the bug with an electronic net.(然后她为这棵树设计了一个电网，利用机器学习杀死落在上面的灯笼虫。她最终创造了一棵太阳能驱动的、自清洁的“树”，吸引斑点灯笼虫，用电子网去除虫子。)”可知，张在发现问题后，坚持不懈地寻找解决方案，并最终创新性地发明了一种陷阱，他是个坚持不懈，勇于创新的人。故选A。
28~31.【答案】D、A、C、C
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍人们眼睛近视背后的主要原因。
1. 根据第一段的“Roughly 42% of Americans are nearsighted today, compared to 25% in 1971. The World Health Organization predicts that about half of the world’s population will have myopia, or nearsightedness, by 2050.（如今，大约42%的美国人患有近视，而1971年这一比例为25%。世界卫生组织预测，到2050年，世界上大约一半的人口将患有近视。）”可知作者的主要目的是用这些数据来展示近视问题的严重性。
2. 从文章第二段“Generally a childhood phenomenon, nearsightedness happens when the eyeball grows too long from front to back, taking on more of an oval（椭圆形） shape rather than a sphere（球形）. （近视通常是一种儿童现象，当眼球从前到后长得太长，呈椭圆形而不是球形时就会发生近视。）”可知小孩子近视之后孩子的眼球走形了。
3. 根据第三段“ The increased use of screens, most of which are high contrast, like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, overstimulating our eyes, causing more eye growth in children and less time spent outdoors are to blame.（屏幕使用量的增加，其中大多数是高对比度的，比如白色页面上的黑色文本，或者深色背景上的浅色文本，过度刺激我们的眼睛，导致儿童眼睛生长更多，户外时间更少，这是罪魁祸首。）”可以看出，本段主要讲述近视形成的原因。
4. 从文章最后一段最后一句话“That’s why regular eye exercise is crucial（这就是为什么定期的眼保健操是至关重要的。）”可以看出，文章接下来会讨论锻炼眼睛的具体方式方法。
32~35.【答案】A、C、B、A
【解析】【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新奇在教育中的重要性，以及如何通过新奇来吸引学生的注意力和提高学习效果。
1. 根据第二段As Judy Willis，MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best，a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System filters incoming information，deciding which data can be processed automatically and which deserves our full attention.（正如医学博士朱迪 威利斯在《你的孩子如何学习得最好》一书中解释的那样，大脑中有一个叫做网状激活系统的部分过滤传入的信息，决定哪些数据可以自动处理，哪些值得我们充分关注。）可知，大脑会对信息进行分类，决定哪些信息可以自动处理，哪些需要我们全神贯注。
2. 根据第三段Only four to eight minutes of pure factual lecture can be tolerated before the brain seeks other information，either internal （daydreaming） or external （Who is that man walking down the hall？）.If the teacher is not providing that novelty，the brain will go elsewhere（只有4到8分钟的纯事实性演讲是可以容忍的，然后大脑就会寻找其他信息，要么是内部信息（做白日梦），要么是外部信息（走在大厅里的那个人是谁？）如果老师不能提供这种新鲜感，大脑就会转向别处）可知，Bruce Perry认为大脑渴望新奇的事物以保持学习的参与度。
3. 根据第三段In his article How the Brain Learns Best，psychiatrist and child psychologist Bruce Perry explains why repetitive classroom activities，such as lectures or worksheets，limit the brain's desire for novelty and can interfere with learning.（精神病学家和儿童心理学家布鲁斯 佩里在他的文章《大脑如何最好地学习》中解释了为什么重复的课堂活动，如讲座或工作表，限制了大脑对新鲜事物的渴望，并可能干扰学习。）和第二段As Judy Willis，MD explains in How Your Child Learns Best，a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System filters incoming information，（正如医学博士朱迪 威利斯在《你的孩子如何学习得最好》一书中解释的那样，大脑中有一个叫做网状激活系统的部分过滤传入的信息）可知，文章通过引用专业人士的观点来展开论述。
4. 根据第一段But what will happen when the new information doesn't "fit" with the existing understanding？That's when the brain really gets excited.The brain doesn't just detect new information— it needs novelty.（但是，当新的信息与现有的理解不"吻合"时，会发生什么呢？那是大脑真正兴奋的时候。大脑不只是检测新信息--它还需要新奇的东西。）可知，文章主要介绍了新奇在教育中的重要性，以及如何通过新奇来吸引学生的注意力和提高学习效果。所以短文的最佳标题为A"新奇在教育中的重要性"。
36~40.【答案】G、B、A、C、F

67.【范文】Unfortunately, their robot began to leak and failed. As they watched their creation disappear under the water, they felt very disappointed. For an instant, it seemed like all their hard work was in vain. But instead of giving up, Juan encouraged the group, "We can fix this! We've come too far to let one setback/obstacle stop us." Motivated by their shared passion, they quickly came up with ideas. They remembered an old fishing net that Luis' uncle used, which could help make their design stronger. With limited time, the boys hurried to make the needed changes, determined to try again.
This time, their robot performed very well. It glided/moved smoothly through the water, skillfully avoiding obstacles, and cheers erupted from the crowd. The boys shared proud looks, and their earlier worries disappeared. They felt relieved as they remembered why they started this journey together. At the end of the competition, they received an unexpected award for "Most Creative Design", showing their cleverness despite the challenges. At that moment, they realized that their true success was not just in winning a prize, but in their strong friendship and ability to overcome difficulties. This experience sparked great passion in each of them, inspiring dreams of future innovations in engineering and technology.
