Eligibility for NHS continuing healthcare does not depend on: a specific health condition, illness or diagnosis (诊断) who provides the care, or where the care is provided
If you have a disability or if you’ve been diagnosed with a long- term illness or condition, this doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll be eligible for NHS continuing healthcare.

“It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.” The setting for these tearful scenes Navis’s restaurant in a Dutch city. Here, the owner and his team create experimental food using herbs, roots, flowers and nuts — some common, others less so.
Most of these ingredients (食材) come from the Ketelbroek Food Forest nearby. To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible. It was set up in 2009 by Dutch botanist and environmentalist Noah Eck as an experiment in slow farming, to see what would happen if the right combination of food plants were left to grow together like a natural forest, without chemicals.
“It’s the first ‘food forest’ of its kind in Europe and we’re one of the few restaurants around the world cooperating in this way,”says Navis.“We have over 400 different species of edible plants we plan our menus around, including some we previously knew little about.” He harvests the ingredients and, with his fellow chefs, works them into beautifully presented tasting menus, served in a dining room hidden in the backstreets of the city,
“To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,”says Navis.“It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” However, he adds, luxury cooking can be about enhancing everyday ingredients, too.
“When looking at cooking in this way, who can argue that caviar (鱼子酱), for example, is more valuable than a carrot grown with specialist knowledge ”
Experimentation is extremely important to Navis. In the next five years, he hopes to open an outdoor restaurant. But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown and the perennial system used in the Food Forest, reducing the need for replanting each season.
24．What can we learn about Navis’s restaurant
A．It is well received by its guests. B．It serves food with moving stories.
C．It offers experimental food for free. D．It is known for its rare food sources.
25．How is Ketelbrock Food Forest different from ordinary woods
A．It is a natural forest. B．Diverse plants coexist in it.
C．Plants there take longer to grow. D．It provides safe food ingredients.
26．What is the key element of fine dining according to Navis
A．Convenient locations. B．Expensive ingredients.
C．Innovative menus. D．Fancy cooking techniques.
27．What does “the perennial system” in the last paragraph probably refer to
A．The sustainable farming practice. B．Farming with proper use of chemicals.
C．Natural farming without human intervention. D．An experimental farm for an outdoor restaurant.
B
Scientists have developed a new type of smart bandage that can signal the type of bacterial infection it’s protecting，just like a traffic light，as well as release the right type of drugs on demand.The traffic light system works just like this: Green means no bacteria or a low concentration of bacteria，yellow means drug-sensitive (DS) bacteria responsive to standard antibiotics(抗生素) and causes antibiotic release，and red means drug-resistant (DR) bacteria that need extra help to be wiped out.
In testing the bandage on mice，the research team was able to successfully treat both DS and DR infections using the new method.The common methods of sensing resistance are limited by time-consuming，the requirement for professional personnel，and expensive instruments.Moreover，the abuse of antibiotics causes the accelerated process of bacterial resistance.
It’s easy to see how a simple bandage and light could overcome some of these limitations.Treatment doesn’t have to wait for a doctor to make a diagnosis，and the bandage can get the right sort of drugs applied at the earliest opportunity.What’s more，the person wearing the bandage gets real-time feedback on what’s happening with the infection，if there’s an infection at all.The researchers say it offers numerous benefits over existing treatments that make use of light.
We’ve been seeing quite a few upgrades to the traditional bandage in recent years，thanks to advances in science—like the nanofibre mesh(纳米纤维网) that attracts bacteria and draws some of it out，speeding up the healing process.Then there’s the novel bandage for treating burns，which stops bacteria from multiplying and lowers the risk of infection.
The more work that a bandage can do while it’s protecting a wound，the better.Efforts to improve bandages continue and now we’ve got a bandage that not only releases antibiotics，but also tells the patient exactly what’s going on too.
28．Which of the following advantages is NOT mentioned for the smart bandage
A．It prevents bacterial resistance.
B．Much time and cost can be saved.
C．Bacterial infections can be detected soon.
D．Antibiotic can be released if a DS light shows.
29．What can we infer from the third paragraph
A．The advantages of the new bandage outweigh those of traditional ones.
B．A person with the smart bandage can cure himself of any wound.
C．Doctors can make a diagnosis with the help of the new bandage.
D．The new smart bandage still has a lot of drawbacks.
30．What does the underlined word “novel” mean in the fourth paragraph
A．Useful. B．New.
C．Virtual. D．Fashionable.
31．What’s the best title of the passage
A．Prevention of Abuse of Antibiotics
B．A Successful Test on Bacterial Infection
C．Introduction to a Color-Changing Bandage
D．A New Treatment on Drug-Resistance Bacteria
A “superhero” moss can significantly reduce the risk and severity of flooding for communities living in downstream areas, researchers have found. Scientists from the conservation group Moors for the Future Partnership who conducted a six-year study into sphagnum moss (泥炭藓) found that planting it in upland areas could dramatically slow the rate at which water runs off the hillsides, preventing river catchments (集水处) being overwhelmed with water downstream.
The research found that the sphagnum moss reduced peak streamflow — the maximum amount of water that enters a river after a storm — by 65%. The moss was also found to increase lag time — the time taken between rainfall and the rainwater entering the river system — by 680%.
More than 50,000 individual sphagnum plants–which are about the size of a 5 0p coin — were planted on Kinder Scout, the highest point in the Peak District national park, as part of an “outdoor laboratory” for researchers to observe.
Before the moss was planted on Kinder, the hill surface consisted of bare peat, which meant that after a storm rainwater would wash straight off, leaving communities in downstream valleys more vulnerable to flooding.
The planting of sphagnum moss could therefore bring important ecological benefits. The plant is capable of absorbing up to 20 times its own weight in water, which means that more rainwater can be held upstream and enter a river catchment more gradually to prevent it from being overwhelmed. Sphagnum moss can also help protect the layers of peat underneath it, and can accumulate over time to create new layers of peat which are essential to carbon storage.
Tom Spencer, a research and monitoring officer for the Moors for the Future Partnershiphailedthe dramatic effects the moss has had on the river catchment. He said sphagnum planting could be “a powerful tool in minimising the risk and severity of flooding”, which would have “far-reaching benefits for communities downstream”.
32． What can be inferred from paragraph 1
A．River catchments need to be expanded. B．Sphagnum moss can ease the impact of flood.
C．More trees should be planted to prevent flood. D．Upland areas are not safe to live in during flood.
33． What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A．Impressive functions of sphagnum moss. B．Serious problems caused by rainwater.
C．Suggested ways to plant sphagnum moss. D．Future possibilities of sphagnum moss.
34． What does the underlined word “hailed” in the last paragraph probably mean
A．spoke highly of B．lost sight of C．paid attention to D．made remarks on
35． What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A．To explain the real causes of flood. B．To share a way of planting sphagnum moss.
C．To stress the flood risks of some communities. D．To introduce the ecological benefits of a plant.
What to Do when Someone Doesn’t Like You
When someone tells me, “I don’t care if people like me,” they are showing me the emotional wall they use to block the hurt of rejection.
As humans are social animals, all of us care if people like us. Based on the need for social connections, your reactions to rejection and negative judgment can range from minor hurt to breakouts of depression. 36
The first step to handle a negative situation is to recognize your reaction. Ask yourself, “What am I feeling ”. 37 Any betrayal (背叛) or embarrassment in your heart Identify what feeling has shown up in your body, so you can choose what to do next.
38 When you sense yourself being shut out or feel defensive, ask yourself what the person actually means to do to you. Does he truly mean to offend you, or make fun of you Your brain works very hard to keep you safe, so it will judge a situation threatening if there is any possibility of social harm.
When our brains sense a possible threat, we react as if we were personally attacked. Take a breath to relieve (减轻) the stress. 39
Finally, if you believe the person doesn’t like you, ask yourself if this matters. 40 If not, what can you do to release your need to be liked by this person And, what can you do to stay neutral and not return the dislike The more you can come to accept others as who they are, the more you can move forward with your goals regardless of whether someone likes you or not.
【选项】
A．If you can, look the person in his eyes.
B．Do you feel any fear or anger in your head
C．Ask yourself what is true about the situation.
D．Often people do not realize the impact of their words.
E．Will the person’s judgment of you impact your work or life
F．The ability to let a show of dislike roll off your back is a learned skill.
G．This will help you relax at present and take you out of your trembling mind.

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。续写的词数应为150左右。
One day my dad came back home in his truck and there was a cage in the back. Naturally I was curious, so I went towards the truck when I noticed that there was a small little goat that wasn’t even an adult yet.
I asked my dad and he said that he bought the goat from his friend and he was going to kill it twenty minutes after he brought it home so that we would have a big meal.
My sister was there too and she was strongly for my view. We found out we got really mad at my dad and told him not to kill it. After about 10 minutes of complaining we finally convinced my dad not to kill it because we told him that there was no reason for him to kill the goat himself when he could just buy goat meat at a store.
My parents know some friends that we visit sometimes and their family really likes animals so we decided to give it to them. For about a month, they had the goat as a pet and they also had the same problems as we had because the dad wanted to kill it and eat it but the rest of the family didn’t want it to die.They also were able to persuade him not to do so. They ended up sending the goat to a family member’s farm where it would grow up happily.
Another thing that has happened to influence my belief is that I have a neighbor that really likes hunting. One day he hunted a deer and brought the body home, but he decided to leave it outside his house for everyone to see. He just left it there as if it were some kind of award that he just won. Sadly little kids started to make fun of the body and pretended to ride on it. They laughed at it and felt no problem with there being a dead deer just laying.
Paragraph 1：
I felt sick by what was happening and left because of what I had just witnessed._
Paragraph 2：
It amazes me how we have changed from hunting to survive to hunting for sport._

【听力材料】 Across the UK, a group of volunteer motorcyclists are helping hospitals by delivering blood. Angela Brown is one of them. She is on call for 80 hours each month. At very short notice, she can be woken in the night and find herself riding a motorbike with a vital delivery for a hospital. But she’s not an employee of any hospital. She’s just a volunteer, one of the 1,400 advanced qualified riders of the Association of Blood Bikers. Last year, the Association's bikers responded to around 35,000 rapid transport requests from 262 UK hospitals. Besides blood, the bikers also deliver surgical tools and medicine. Brown first discovered blood biking when she was on a course at the institute of advanced motorists. Her trainer was a blood biker. Under his influence, Brown started volunteering as a rider. She later discovered that blood bikers once helped her own nephew, Peter. He received blood delivered by a rider on New Year’s Eve, 2015. Brown says being a blood biker is a way of helping the community and being on the bike at the same time.

Dear Alan,
I'm writing to tell you about the English Music Festival held in our school last week. It was a fantastic event aiming to celebrate cultural diversity and improve our English through music. The festival featured a variety of performances, including songs, dramas, poetry recitations and so on, all in English. It was a great opportunity for us to practice our language skills in a fun and engaging way.
Personally, I found it not only enhanced our English skills but also broadened our views. I believe events like this are essential for us to develop a global mindsetand promote cross- cultural understanding.
I'd love to hear about any similar events you've attended or organized.
Yours,
Li Hua
六、书面表达
67．【答案】Paragraph 1：
I felt sick by what was happening and left because of what I had just witnessed.The majority of the people there saw no problem with what was happening. They didn’t think they were doing wrong and that they were to blame for that. A month later, I found out that my neighbors’ daughter wanted to hunt when she got older because she thought it was “fun”， which bothered me greatly.
Paragraph 2：
It amazes me how we have changed from hunting to survive to hunting for sport. I just don’t think there is any reason to kill a living thing for fun. This just leads people to hunt animals.And even the small little goat is endangered because people start to think that there’s nothing wrong with killing a life as long as it’s not a human. If there’s one thing I beg you to do, it’s to be open minded towards animals not just to humans and don’t kill for sport.
