A
There are countless female scientists who have advanced human knowledge despite facing significant obstacles. Here are some of them:
Dorothy Hodgkin (1910-1994)
Dorothy Hodgkin was a British chemist who pioneered the use of X-ray crystallography (晶体学) to determine the structures of important biological molecules (分子) , for which Hodgkin became the third woman to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Her most famous achievements include determining the structure of penicillin (青霉素) during World War II, which was crucial for producing this life- saving medicine on a large scale.
Barbara McClintock (1902-1992)
Working with corn plants, she observed that certain genetic elements could change position on chromosomes (染色体) , a concept she called “genetic transposition”, affecting the expression of other genes. This discovery challenged the widely accepted belief that genes were fixed in their chromosomal locations, and was largely rejected by the scientific community. It wasn’t until the 1970s that her observations were confirmed.
Nettie Stevens (1861-1912)
Nettie Stevens was working to solve a scientific problem that had troubled humanity for ages. The problem was simple but daunting and it touched on how men become male and how women become female. Through her research work, Stevens discovered that chromosomes are responsible for the sex of individuals, animals and every other living organism.
Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958)
Rosalind Franklin was a British chemist whose pioneering work in X-ray crystallography was crucial to understanding the structure of DNA. Tragically, Franklin’s work was used by two fellow scientists without her knowledge, who applied it to construct their model of DNA structure — a model that later earned them the Nobel Prize. Franklin received no credit before dying from ovarian cancer.
1. What was the practical use of Dorothy Hodgkin’s work
A. It discovered a new life- saving medicine. B. It helped understand the structure of DNA.
C. It explained what determines a person’s sex. D. It allowed a drug to be made in large amounts.
2. What do we know about Barbara McClintock’s theory
A. It was soon used in growing corn. B. It was resisted by most scientists at first.
C. It was proven false by later research. D. It was based on a widely accepted belief.
3. Whose work helped produce other Nobel Prize winners
A. Dorothy Hodgkin’s. B. Barbara McClintock’s.
C. Nettie Stevens’. D. Rosalind Franklin’s.
B
Ibby Piracha, who was a deaf-mute (聋哑人) since he was young, adjusted his glasses as he approached the counter in a coffee shop. His fingers tapped lightly on the surface of the counter—his usual way to signal his presence. Then the waiter with the silver name tag (标牌), Krystal Payne, suddenly stepped back from the coffee machine and reached into a box.
Payne pulled out a piece of receipt paper, wrote something, and then folded it into three parts, sliding it across the counter to Ibby. Ibby’s breath caught as he unfolded the paper, his fingertips touching the letters: I have been learning American Sign Language, so you can have the same experience as everyone else.
Behind the counter Payne had been quietly watching. She saw Ibby’s eyebrows lift in surprise as he swallowed (做吞咽动作) with effort. Then, a real, genuine smile spread across his face, one that reached all the way to his crinkled brown eyes, the same way his mother used to smile when she’d surprise him with his favorite comic book. He carefully smoothed out the paper, as if it was something very fragile and precious.
Then she signed to ask him what he would like to order. The words she expressed with sign language were slightly messy at the end — you could tell she had been practicing—but each letter stood proudly on the note. Then, he slowly and carefully expressed himself and then slid his order card under it.
Payne’s gesture was especially meaningful given the challenges faced by the deaf community. A recent study showed that 67% of deaf people experience negative treatment due to their condition, even often from those closest to them. But in this quiet coffee shop, with the sound of the coffee machine in the background, Payne had created a moment of true connection and bridged the widest gaps with the simplest acts.
4. Why did Ibby tap lightly on the counter
A. To convey his impatience. B. To practice his sign language.
C. To draw the waiter’s attention. D. To check if the waiter was there.
5. How did Ibby feel when reading the note from Payne
A. Confused and curious. B. Amazed and touched.
C. Amused and relaxed. D. Embarrassed and tense.
6. What can we learn about Payne
A. She was a close friend of Ibby’s family. B. She prepared the note in advance for Ibby.
C. She had been trained in sign language for years. D. She tried to communicate with Ibby in his way.
7. Which of the following can best describe Payne
A. Caring and considerate. B. Independent and strict.
C. Open-minded and calm. D. Strong-willed and honest.
C
In general, many rivers in the world are suffering from depletion (损耗). There are many reasons for this, but one fundamental reason is that the soil quality is depleting. If you take away organic matter from the soil, it becomes sand. If you put organic matter into sand, it becomes soil. Only soil that is rich in organic matter and in shade has the capability to absorb and hold water. As the level of organic matter in soil increases, it is able to store much more water.
How do you put organic material back into the soil The only way is through leaves from the trees and animal waste. We have to bring soil under plant cover. If there are enough plants when it rains, the water will sink into the soil, which will hold it as it goes down to groundwater, and then slowly flows into rivers, tanks, wells and lakes.
Four billion people experience severe water shortages for some part of the year. Studies estimate that water shortages will worsen significantly if temperatures rise by 3℃. If the world gets warmer, water will not be in rivers, lakes, or ice caps, where we need it. It will be in the ocean where it will be of no use to us.
When it comes to climate change, the focus seems to be on automobiles, the oil industry, and other industrial sources. But there is no way you can address climate change or global warming without addressing soil depletion. Healthy soil is one of the best carbon sinks in the world. If the soil is covered and has organic matter, it absorbs carbon from the atmosphere. At the same time, unhealthy soil, which is ploughed and exposed, is a source of carbon emissions (碳排放).
So, soil, water, air — these are not different things. By restoring (修复) soil health, we can address water and air issues at the same time. So, our attention has to shift to soil.
8. What can we conclude from paragraph 1
A. Sand contains no organic matter. B. Soil quality affects water quantity.
C. All rivers suffer from depletion. D. Depletion is impossible to control.
9. What role does soil restoration play according to the text
A. It promotes plant growth and prevents pollution.
B. It regulates global temperature and increases rainfall.
C. It enhances groundwater levels and cleans ocean water.
D. It improves water content and reduces carbon emissions.
10. What is a consequence of rising temperatures according to the study
A. Rivers will receive more rainfall. B. Oceans will be full of ice caps.
C. Lakes will store more freshwater. D. Water shortages will be severe.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. To Address Water Shortages, Look Below Your Feet
B. To Increase Agricultural Output, Enrich the Soil
C. To Improve Air Quality, Protect Natural Forests
D. To Reduce Emissions, Focus on Renewable Energy
D
Researchers in Switzerland have integrated chips and sensors into socks to help people who suffer from diabetes symptoms (糖尿病症状) — long-term pain and a loss of feeling in the feet. About half of the world’s 560 million diabetes patients experience nerve (神经) damage in the lower leg. This damage affects the nerves and prevents the brain from receiving sensory signals from the feet. That not only makes walking difficult but also amplifies the risk of falling.
The smart sock uses painless electrical signals to provide personalized treatment. It works by sending signals to specific nerve pathways and restoring feeling in the feet. This could potentially remove the need for the strong painkillers usually used for this condition, while also boosting users’ confidence when they move around.
A research team from ETH Zurich is behind this breakthrough. Over the past five years, they have developed this solution using smart fabrics and AI. The sock has pressure sensors on the bottom to map how pressure is spread while walking. A small computer in the upper part of the sock then turns this information into electrical signals. Electrodes (电极) in the fabric send these signals directly to healthy parts of the wearer’s nerves, based on the pressure map. This allows the wearer to feel the ground and reduces nerve pain.
This makes it easier for users to notice where pressure is applied with each step, helping them feel more stable as they walk. The feedback from activating the nerves could also help prevent missteps and accidental falls.
The sock is not yet on the market. The team has scheduled a long-term study in the coming months. This study will determine if the sock can significantly improve patients’ walking patterns and if it can partially restore nerve function. Designed for daily use, the product will be thoroughly tested to see how well it lasts over time.
12. What does the underlined word “amplifies” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Increases. B. Shifts. C. Removes. D. Estimates.
13. What is a key advantage of the smart sock over traditional treatment methods
A It uses stronger painkillers. B. It might focus on curing diabetes.
C. It requires no battery to operate. D. It might replace strong painkillers.
14. Which is the correct order of the working process of the sock
A. Map→send→transform→feel. B. Map→transform→send→feel.
C. Send→map→transform→feel. D. Transform→map→send→feel.
15. What is the research team’s attitude to the sock
A. Hesitant. B. Subjective. C. Careful. D. Emotional.

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。
We’re being overrun by a sea of low-quality video content generated by AI. It just floods the zone and at some point your mind is just exhausted. ____16____ . There are some fairly straightforward features that can clue you in to whether the content you’re watching might be AI-generated.
The biggest feature is the video length. Most companies limit the lengths of AI-generated videos because making these videos is computationally very expensive. ____17____ . While it is possible to piece together a longer video with a bunch of short cuts, when you see those little bite- sized videos, it’s a good indication that you should think twice before sharing them.
____18____ . Like commercial photography, they tend to place the subject in the most central position of the frame, with the action starting and ending cleanly and precisely, lacking a sense of accidents and chaos (混乱) found in real-world videos. That’s one reason the quiz video of a cat taking a snake out of someone’s bed is obviously fake (假的) .
If you’re unsure whether the video you’re seeing was originally posted by the account you’re watching, try a simple image search online. Often such searches can dig up the original post. ____19____ , which either confirm the video or prove it fake.
Identifying an AI-generated video is often as simple as looking carefully at the account that posted it. If the account is full of normal content not just a single sensational (引起哗然的) video, it lends credibility to the idea that the poster witnessed the sight. Also, it’s common for accounts to identify their content as AI-generated in their profile (简介) descriptions. ____20____ .
A. Cost isn’t the only thing
B. Don’t assume everything is fake
C. You don’t need to give in to despair, though
D. Many videos end up being just for 8-10 seconds
E. AI-generated videos tend to perfectly frame their subject
F. Other videos from the same event or related news reports can also be found
G. Even if they don’t, even simply checking the comments can provide powerful clues

However, in the rural areas, you’re not guaranteed (保证) that,” Gideon said.
Volunteer firefighting is not just fighting fires — it’s being ready for the ____30____ ones.

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。
Several years ago we moved to North Carolina. My husband headed to his new job. I felt stressed thinking I was leaving the city where I had lived for twenty years and that I had to leave my lovely garden behind, which I had put a lot of effort to create.
When I finally arrived at the new house, there was one crisis after another. I was so overwhelmed with the tasks ahead that I sat on the floor amongst the boxes. As my unpacking job was drawing to a close, I still couldn’t shake the feeling of being down.
One weekend, my husband and I drove to check out a piece of furniture for sale. It wasn’t what we wanted, but John, the elderly gentleman selling it, was kind. When I admired his beautiful rose garden, he said it was his wife’s, who’d been in hospital for several weeks but would return the next day. The rose garden reminded me of my lovely garden left behind. Then suddenly, a tall weed caught my eye. To ensure his wife wouldn’t regret seeing it on returning, I pulled it with John’s permission.
Months going by, I couldn’t seem to find my place in our new community. Though I joined the local garden club and the members there were very kind, most were retired and had been friends for years. I didn’t feel part of the group.
I felt this move took it all — my job, my circle of friends, and my well-being. One day, as I was still feeling down, the telephone rang, which had rarely happened in my new home. Wondering who it might be, I picked up the phone. It was a lady from the garden club, who introduced herself as Susan, that called to say she had been in bed due to illness and missed club meetings for months, and that she had some special native plants to give me as a way of greeting.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Never had I expected that the call brought hope to my life.
