I was lost in the city. My nerves were stressed. My muscles were tense. My heart was pounding. My hands held the steering wheel (方向盘) of my car as I circled the same city block for the tenth time. As a girl, I grew up in the country. I had never driven in the city before, but I needed to pick up my elder daughter. With my three sons in the car, I was trying my best to find the exit back to the interstate highway. This happened long before GPS, and my handwritten directions seemed to be wrong. It didn't help that the just inches to spare as I inched my way back to the turnoff again. Finally, in desperation, I whispered, “Please. I want to go home. Help us find our way safely there!”
At that moment, I saw it, the tiny one-lane exit that led to the interstate highway again. At the last second, I pulled into the right lane. The traffic out of the city at that time of the day was even worse than that in the city. It was heavy traffic at 45 miles per hour. Finally, though, the vehicles started to thin out and moved freely, and I could relax at the wheel. I took in the beauty of the mountains covered by green forests. I smiled at the sun shining down on them. At last, we turned off the four-lane highway onto the winding two-lane road that would take us the last 16 miles home. I turned on the radio and laughed with joy when I heard the song, “Take Me Home, Country Roads”, playing loudly.
In our life, we will all take many paths and travel around many places. But in the end, all roads will lead us home again. So travel with a light and loving heart!
4. Why was the author lost in the city
A. She couldn't use the GPS properly.
B. She didn't know the city's entrance.
C. She forgot the directions provided online.
D. She had no driving experience in the city.
5. When did the author start to feel at ease while driving
A. When she turned onto the two-lane road.
B. As soon as she heard the song on the radio.
C. After she saw the exit to the interstate highway.
D. When the traffic on the interstate highway lessened.
6. What does the author mainly express in the last paragraph
A. Her insights into life. B. Her opinions on home.
C. Her desire for travelling. D. Her love for urban paths.
7. What is the best title for the text
A. Traffic Tales B. Lost and Found
C. Roads Lead Home D. Country and City Adventures
C
Tomatoes and fries make a tasty pair. But the connection between tomatoes and potatoes may go beyond making a good meal. Potatoes today might have evolved with the help of an early tomato, according to a new paper published in a leading scientific journal recently.
A team of scientists analyzed the genomes (基因组) of wild potatoes, tomatoes, and their ancestors. They found that each potato species contains a mix of genetics from tomatoes and a potato-like ancestor, suggesting the modern potato resulted from an event between the two. “This is one of the largest genomic collections of wild potatoes ever analyzed,” says Zhiyang Zhang, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the lead author of the study.
Scientists already knew that tomatoes and potatoes were related to some degree — both belong to the Solanum (茄属植物) group, after all, along with the eggplant. And potatoes and tomatoes are each other’s closest living relatives. So, they took a closer look at their genes. Zhang and his team found that wild tomato plants interbred with a potato-like plant called Etuberosum around nine million years ago. Alone, neither plant had the genes to make these underground parts — but together, they could grow the feature.
That event, the authors suggest, occurred in the Andes Mountains. The underground parts allowed the potato to survive in this unforgiving habitat and spread across the world. They enabled plants to reproduce without seeds, making them adaptable. “Evolving these underground parts gave potatoes a huge advantage in hard environments, fueling an explosion of new species,” says Sanwen Huang, a genome researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the study’s senior author, in a statement.
Zhang’s team hopes that understanding the potato’s evolution can help scientists develop innovative ways to breed the species and make the food stronger today. Zhang is already looking into ways potatoes might be grown from seeds. Seed potatoes could be more genetically diverse and resistant to various risks, such as drought. The work also demonstrates how different species can be unexpectedly connected by evolution. “Next time you eat potatoes,” Huang adds, “thank a tomato.”
8. Why does the author mention “tomatoes and fries”
A. To introduce the topic of the text. B. To show their different flavors.
C. To summarize the content of the text. D. To compare their evolutionary patterns.
9. How did the scientists mainly conduct their study
A. They checked some genetic information.
B. They observed the ancestor plants’ seeds.
C. They studied modern potatoes’ different fruits.
D. They analyzed potatoes and tomatoes’ relatives.
10. What does the underlined word “interbred” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Survived together. B. Disappeared together.
C. Produced young together. D. Made changes together.
11. What do Sanwen Huang and Zhiyang Zhang stress
A. The necessity of thanking potatoes.
B. The importance of studying potatoes’ evolution.
C. The key to learning the risks of planting potatoes.
D. The solution to improving potatoes’ living environments.
D
There is a new type of camera that works in a way similar to human eyes, which may be very useful for astronomers. It can clearly show both extremely bright celestial bodies (天体) and not very bright objects in the same photo, and can also track fast-moving celestial bodies without motion-caused unclear images.
Traditional digital cameras work by checking pixels (像素) many times per second, recording data from every pixel each time. These new cameras, known as event cameras, work differently: A pixel is only checked when the brightness at that pixel’s location changes. If the brightness at a point on the sensor is the same as the previous reading, no new data is stored. This is similar to how human eyes collect sensory information.
This working method has advantages. For the same video, it stores less data as it only records pixels with changing brightness, and it can operate at a much higher rate. In addition, such cameras can show not very bright objects even with very bright ones nearby — these bright objects would cause overexposure in images taken by traditional cameras. This is because its pixels detect light in a different way instead of following a linear scale.
To explore the potential of this technology in astronomy, Chetan Singh Thakur from the Indian Institute of Science and his colleagues installed these cameras on each of the two telescopes in India. They successfully got clear images of objects between the Earth and the Moon and also took pictures of the Siria binary system, which consists of Sirius A, the brightest star in the night sky, and Sirius B.
Mark Norris from the University of Central Lancashire in the UK, not involved in the study, pointed out that Sirius A is about 10,000 times brighter than Sirius B, which means traditional sensors can never show both clearly in a single photo. Meanwhile, Singh Thakur added, “These cameras are also excellent at detecting fast-moving objects due to their higher rates. You can shoot at very high speeds and still get fast-moving objects. Ordinary cameras would only produce unclear images.”
12. How does the author begin paragraph 1
A. By listing statistics. B. By giving a definition.
C. By describing a phenomenon. D. By drawing a comparison.
13. Which statement fits the event cameras’ working mode
A. They check pixels constantly. B. They tend to store the same data.
C. They focus on changing brightness data. D. They record stable pixels’ locations.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly show about the event cameras
A. Their major components. B. Their installation process.
C. Their potential advantages. D. Their practical application.
15. What is Mark Norris’s attitude to the event cameras
A. Approving. B. Watchful. C. Critical. D. Indifferent.

Fun Ways to Support Students’ Communication Skills
Speaking and listening skills are a key aspect of every subject. Being a teacher, I find some students are lacking in these skills. ____16____. In my school district, there is active encouragement to have less “teacher talk” and more academic interaction between students, which both honors their perspectives and increases their opportunities to speak and listen to each other.
Encourage daily gratitude
At the start of the school day, I have a few minutes to spare when taking attendance, so, I ask a student to suggest something specific we can be grateful for every day. Last year, I had every student share how they were grateful, which was powerful for establishing good listening practices but too time-consuming. ____17____.
Choice writing
We have at least one spare writing lesson a week and some small windows of time where I allow the students to choose what they write about. ____18____, but now, every student is enthusiastically using the time, either on solo or team writing projects.
____19____
The only window in my busy day for storytelling is during my snack break. As usual, I start by telling stories in the normal interactive way, with student volunteers called up to act out the story as it unfolds. This always inspires students to write stories at home and become storytellers themselves.
____20____, which can make them academically purposeful but also fun. The average class contains a wide range of skills. But hopefully, with the above techniques, all of our students will find a structure to help them develop skills that they’ll need for the rest of their lives.
A. Storytelling
B. Write stories at home
C. Therefore, this area has taken on special urgency
D. The key to increasing speaking and listening is to find proper ways

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。
Ryan was an ordinary student who faced constant challenges in academics and extracurricular activities. He often compared himself to others and felt inadequate, doubting his own abilities. His classmates excelled(表现出色)effortlessly, while he struggled to keep up. Even his parents’ encouraging words couldn’t silence the voice in his head, whispering, “You’ll never be good enough.”
One day, Ryan came across a martial arts dojo(武术馆)among towering buildings. Through the fogged windows, he watched students move with precision and calmness, their focused expressions contrasting sharply with his own restless mind. Fascinated, he stepped inside, his sneakers squeaking on the polished wooden floor. A wise-looking man with silver hair — Master Li — greeted him with a nod. “Strength begins with the courage to try,” the master said, as if reading Ryan’s hesitation.
Under Master Li’s guidance, Ryan learned not only kicks and blocks but also the philosophy of balance. During one exhausting training session, Ryan collapsed after repeatedly failing a spinning kick. “Why do I keep falling ” he said to himself, frustration burning his cheeks. Master Li knelt beside him. “A tree grows strongest against the wind,” he replied. “Each fall teaches your roots to dig deeper.” These words lingered in Ryan’s mind as he practiced daily, often staying late to perfect his forms.
Months passed. Ryan’s palms grew calloused (起老茧的), and his muscles ached, but his spirit felt lighter. He began applying Master Li’s lessons to his studies — breaking problems into smaller steps, and breathing through panic before exams. When he struggled in his math, he remembered, “Fall seven times, stand up eight.” Slowly, his grades improved, and his shoulders straightened with quiet confidence.
The ultimate test came when Master Li suggested Ryan join a regional martial arts tournament. “This isn’t about winning,” he cautioned. “It’s about honoring your journey.” Ryan’s heart raced as he registered, his name now listed alongside seasoned competitors.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

On the day of the tournament, Ryan took the stage for his martial arts performance.
