A
Meet Incredible Conservation Heroes Saving Wildlife from Extinction
Anne Savage
Dr.Savage founded a conservation program to protect cotton-top tamarins （棉顶狨猴）.She pioneered in the development of new technologies to study the animal in the Colombian forest.She also helped conduct a study that found only 7，500 individuals remained.As a result，the International Union for Conservation of Nature changed the classification of cotton-top tamarins from Endangered to Critically Endangered，which brought the species to more people's notice.
Elena Bykova
Having majored in biology，Bykova has a good knowledge of the saiga antelope （赛加羚羊）.As Executive Secretary of the Saiga Conservation Alliance，an international organization，Bykova works to save the antelope.Illegal shooting is the single biggest threat，and Bykova concentrates on raising public awareness of the danger，finding alternative livelihood opportunities for local communities，and protecting saiga habitats.
Jeanne Tarrant
Frogs are astonishingly diverse and beautiful for Dr.Tarrant.Over the years，she has helped put the spotlight on many highly threatened species of frogs that face extinction due to habitat loss，climate change，and hunts by their animal enemies.No wonder she is called the "Frog Lady" of South Africa!
Marilyn Connell
Living only in the Mary River of Queensland，the Mary River turtle （龟） takes in oxygen in two ways.Being hunted by other wildlife is the Mary River turtle's biggest threat.Connell and her team investigate the threats to the species and take measures to protect the eggs and newborns from being hunted，ensuring the species has a chance to survive.
1.What made cotton-top tamarins get more attention？ ______
A. Dr.Savage's conservation program.
B. The adjustment to their risk category.
C. Research into cotton-top tamarins.
D. The development of new technologies.
2.What does Elena Bykova do to protect the saiga antelope？ ______
A. She founds an international organization.
B. She chooses biology as her main subject of study.
C. She provides ways for locals to make a living.
D. She fights against the behavior of illegal shooting.
3.What affects the survival of both frogs and the Mary River turtles？ ______
A. Changes to living habits. B. Threats from other species.
C. Loss of their habitat. D. Difficulty in raising newborns.
B
When Clara took over her grandfather's Brooklyn bookshop in 2018，the first thing she removed wasn't the outdated stocks，but the WiFi router.Regulars protested.A lawyer threatened to transfer his ＄500 monthly coffee budget elsewhere. "Books deserve the same undivided attention we demand from lovers，" she told me，polishing the brass counter her grandfather installed in 1967.
Her stubbornness seemed self-destructive as stores around them closed down.Yet something unusual happened.By 2020，the shop had become an unofficial sanctuary （庇护所）.Teenagers sprawled on Persian carpets with Dostoevsky，their phones forgotten in backpacks.A retired judge started hosting Saturday poetry circles where participants recited verses from memory — a practice Clara called "brain tattooing."
The pandemic should have been their death knell.Instead，when Clara launched "Survival Bundles" （handpicked books with handwritten notes），orders poured in from tech executives exhausted by Zoom.A Silicon Valley CEO admitted these were the first physical books he'd touched since graduate school. "We're starving for texture，" Clara noted，wrapping parcels in recycled paper.
Last winter，I found her battling a new threat.A property developer had purchased their building，tripling the rent overnight.What unfolded next could fill a novel：customers organized protests on the sidewalk；the judge represented them for free；even the lawyer who once threatened to leave funded their legal defense.
In the court，Clara quoted Melville： "We cannot live only for ourselves.A thousand fibers connect us." The judge — her poetry circle regular — pronounced the rent increase unreasonable.Now their shop displays this judgment alongside signed first editions，proof that some bonds still resist digital disruption.
4.What made Clara's approach to running the bookshop special？______
A. Catering to the needs of customers.
B. Introducing modern technology.
C. Focusing on rare book collections.
D. Prioritizing full concentration.
5.What does the underlined phrase "death knell" in paragraph 3 mean？______
A. A moment of celebration. B. A desperate cry for survival.
C. An event marking the end. D. A sudden opportunity for growth.
6.Why is the lawyer mentioned again in paragraph 4？______
A. To show his contradictory behavior.
B. To illustrate the content of a novel.
C. To stress the mass support Clara received.
D. To explain the difficulty Clara came across.
7.What can we learn from the story？______
A. Profit-driven decisions may lead to unexpected outcomes.
B. Community and human connection can navigate modern challenges.
C. Technology is harmful to traditional businesses and should be avoided.
D. Small bookshops are bound to encounter many threats in the digital age.
C
Scientists in China have developed a technology that can replace high-strength plastics used in home facilities with bamboo fiber.Bamboo shoots up when it rains.Its growth is so fast that raw material costs are low.According to researchers at Northeast Forestry University，bioplastic made from bamboo is similar to oil-based plastic in strength，shapeability，and thermal stability （热稳定性），but can decompose （分解） in soil within fifty days.It can also be fully recycled while maintaining 90% of its strength.
As plastic pollution worsens，bioplastics — plastics made from natural materials — are gaining popularity，but they still account for only 0.5% of the more than 400 million tons of plastic produced every year.That is because bioplastics have lower mechanical strength than oil-based plastics and are difficult to apply easily in common production processes.
The Chinese team developed a method to produce plastic from cellulose，the fibrous component of bamboo.They first treated bamboo by adding zinc chloride（ZnCl2） and a simple acid.In experiments，the team said bamboo-based bioplastic showed mechanical strength outperforming that of conventional plant-based bioplastic.In tests of mechanical and thermal stability and shapeability，bamboo-based bioplastic demonstrated its potential as an industrial alternative.
The development of bamboo-based bioplastic by researchers at Northeast Forestry University represents a significant advancement in the pursuit of sustainable development.With its impressive mechanical properties and biodegradability，bamboo-based bioplastic stands out as a promising candidate for reducing plastic waste and reliance on oil.
However，the path to future widespread adoption requires overcoming challenges related to production scalability （可扩展性） and market acceptance.As industries explore the potential of bamboo-based bioplastic，the question remains：Can this innovation truly replace traditional plastics and transform our approach to sustainable production？
8.What can we learn about the bamboo-based bioplastic？______
A. It is a sustainable plastic alternative.
B. It is difficult to break down in soil naturally.
C. It loses original strength when decomposing.
D. It is second to oil-based plastics in shapability.
9.What is the key advantage of bamboo-based bioplastic over past bioplastic？______
A. Simpler recycling process. B. Higher mechanical strength.
C. Cheaper raw materials. D. Lower carbon footprint.
10.What is a challenge for the widespread use of bamboo-based bioplastic？______
A. Market recognition. B. Production process.
C. Thermal stability. D. Technology innovation.
11.What can be a suitable title for the text？______
A. Bamboo：The Green Steel
B. Bamboo：Can it save our planet？
C. Bamboo-based bioplastic：Is it really eco-friendly？
D. Bamboo-based bioplastic：Strong Material，Greener Future
D
Many studies have explored whether speaking multiple languages improves brain function.Some research suggests that multilingualism （多语言） can improve "executive function" — skills like ignoring distractions，planning tasks，and adapting to new information.For instance，bilingual children have been shown to outperform monolingual （单语的） children in tasks requiring attention control.A study from 2019 further clarified these effects in adults.While confirming that a moderate amount of language learning in adults does not boost core executive functions，it delays the onset of age-related mental deterioration （恶化）.
But not all language learners benefit equally.The greatest benefits appear among those who achieve full fluency in a second language— especially those who use both languages regularly，almost every day.Casual language study，such as taking a college course，does not offer the same advantages as deep，long-term use.Frequent switching between languages within a single day or conversation seems to be especially helpful.Interpreters and translators，for example，often show stronger cognitive （认知的） control and mental flexibility.
Still，many factors complicate the research.Bilingual individuals often differ from monolinguals in education，socioeconomic status，and cultural exposure.For instance，a child growing up abroad with diplomat parents may enjoy many advantages unrelated to language.On the other hand，studies in poorer regions suggest that multilingualism can provide significant cognitive benefits where educational resources are limited.
Age also matters.The brain benefits of bilingualism are most prominent in young children and older adults.Young bilingual children often show early cognitive advantages，though monolingual peers may catch up later in life.For seniors，speaking multiple languages may help protect cognitive health — similar to how layering slices of Swiss cheese can cover more holes.
Beyond potential cognitive benefits，learning a language offers a more certain superpower：the ability to communicate with more people and understand other cultures.Even if you didn't grow up bilingual，that alone is an excellent reason to start learning.
12.What have researchers found about multilingualism？______
A. It prevents mental issue. B. It slows cognitive decline.
C. It boosts short-term memory. D. It replaces executive function.
13.Who likely gains the most cognitive benefits from bilingualism？______
A. Casual learners. B. Monolingual seniors.
C. College course takers. D. Daily language switchers.
14.What does the underlined word "prominent" in paragraph 4 probably mean？______
A. Limited. B. Overstated. C. Distinct. D. Immediate.
15.What is the author's attitude towards multilingualism？______
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Sympathetic. D. Cautious.
二、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。
Being sensitive means that you are observant，careful，and thoughtful.It can also mean you sometimes overinterpret or overreact to perceived criticism or judgment.If you tend to be a highly sensitive person，you are more likely to misread signals from others，sense social threats，and struggle to adapt to new circumstances. （1） ______
The power of insensitivity can be interpreted as"sluggish（迟钝的） power". （2） ______ For example，those working on complex research projects with"sluggish power"persist with focus and determination in the face of challenges such as tight deadlines and limited resources.Their resilience facilitates effective problem-solving，ensuring the successful completion of tasks despite obstacles.
（ 3） ______ That is one of the important reasons why insensitivity allows a person to better survive and adapt in a competitive environment.Knowing oneself is difficult，but knowing oneself correctly is undoubtedly an excellent ability-a trait shared by many successful people，who all clearly know where their strengths are，what they can do，what they want，and what direction to go.
Practicing insensitivity involves several key strategies.Firstly，be assertive.Express our needs and opinions positively and with confidence.Secondly，adopt a forward-looking mindset.（4） ______ Additionally，detach from external influences.Avoid excessive concern over others' opinions and speculation on others' thoughts.Lastly，manage relationships.Recognize our personal responsibilities while respecting others' boundaries.Don't interfere with other people's subjects and don't let others interfere with ours either.
（ 5） ______ Once you become a bit "blunt"and slow down the pace，you will feel more comfortable.
A.Learn to view the problem as two parts.
B.That's where the need to be insensitive comes from.
C.I hope everyone can obtain the ability to be insensitive.
D.Behind insensitivity is a strong sense of self-awareness.
E.Being a highly sensitive person can come with many challenges.
F.It implies the ability to calmly face the setbacks and firmly move forward.
G.Focus on long-term goals rather than the ups and downs of life at the moment.
16.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

38.Sylvia Murray，a retired nurse，lived for twenty-two years in a small，well- kept house that was the pride of the neighborhood.Her Saturdays followed a cherished routine：she would edge the lawn with precision，nurture her bright rose bushes，and ensure every window box overflowed with colorful blooms.Neighbors often paused on their walks to compliment the tidy garden，and Sylvia beamed with a quiet，profound pride，for this small plot of land was her masterpiece，proof of her care and dedication.
Then，illness and disability gradually stole the strength required to bend，lift，and mow（修剪）.The unstoppable march of nature took over：grass crept over the sidewalk，wild shrubs（灌木丛）pressed against the front windows，and a thick blanket of leaves gathered in corners she could no longer reach.Each messy day deepened Sylvia's shame，as the garden that once symbolized her independence now stood as a very public reminder of her decline.
Seeing Sylvia's struggle with both pride and loneliness，Jenny，a close companion of her，decided to act.She wrote a short，honest post on a local community page.It explained Sylvia's situation，her embarrassment，and included photos of the overgrown yard.The post was a gentle request，asking if anyone could spare an hour，tools，or hands to help.The message was quickly understood by many，its honesty moving dozens of neighbors，and comments of support began to multiply.
Among the replies was a response from the Riverside Youth Volunteers，a local teen service group.Their leader，Johnny，immediately forwarded the post to the team's chat.Despite the fact that Sylvia's street was a 15-20 minute drive for most of them，everyone agreed without hesitation.They quickly held a planning meeting，borrowed extra power tools from the community center，and arranged carpools（拼车） for the upcoming weekend，determined to restore the dignity the post so clearly described.With everything ready，they set out for Sylvia's house the next Sunday.

37.【答案】Dear Chris，
I'm delighted to share a labor experience themed "Labour is the Most Honorable"，which aimed to foster a love for labor and raise our awareness of environmental protection.
On arriving at the worksite，we were split into groups and engaged in a variety of activities.Some planted trees，while some sowed flowers，and the rest did cleaning around the campus.All of us sweated blood to do our job.With our efforts，the campus took on a new look and became more vibrant.Thinking of the shade of the trees and the beauty of the flowers in the future，we felt a great sense of achievement.
I found the experience extremely rewarding，as it deepened my understanding of the value of labor and the significance of a green environment.Looking forward to your sharing of your experience.
Yours，
Li Hua
38.【答案】 Johnny and his teammates stood on Sylvia's doorstep，tools in hand.Jenny led them in，and Sylvia，sitting by the window，teared up at the sight of the smiling teens. "We're here to tidy your garden，Ms.Murray，" Johnny said gently.Without wasting time，the volunteers split into groups：some mowed the overgrown grass，others trimmed the wild shrubs，and a few raked the piles of leaves.They chatted softly with Sylvia as they worked，asking about her roses — making her forget her embarrassment little by little.
As the work progressed，the yard transformed piece by piece.The grass was neatly edged，the rose bushes were pruned back to their former beauty，and the window boxes were refilled with fresh blooms Jenny had brought.When the sun set，the garden looked just like it used to — even brighter.Sylvia walked outside slowly，touching the roses，and said， "You've given me back my pride." The volunteers waved goodbye，but their kindness stayed—turning a messy yard into a warm proof of community care.

（ 3） ______ That is one of the important reasons why insensitivity allows a person to better survive and adapt in a competitive environment.Knowing oneself is difficult，but knowing oneself correctly is undoubtedly an excellent ability-a trait shared by many successful people，who all clearly know where their strengths are，what they can do，what they want，and what direction to go.
Practicing insensitivity involves several key strategies.Firstly，be assertive.Express our needs and opinions positively and with confidence.Secondly，adopt a forward-looking mindset.（4） ______ Additionally，detach from external influences.Avoid excessive concern over others' opinions and speculation on others' thoughts.Lastly，manage relationships.Recognize our personal responsibilities while respecting others' boundaries.Don't interfere with other people's subjects and don't let others interfere with ours either.
（ 5） ______ Once you become a bit "blunt"and slow down the pace，you will feel more comfortable.
A.Learn to view the problem as two parts.
B.That's where the need to be insensitive comes from.
C.I hope everyone can obtain the ability to be insensitive.
D.Behind insensitivity is a strong sense of self-awareness.
E.Being a highly sensitive person can come with many challenges.
F.It implies the ability to calmly face the setbacks and firmly move forward.
G.Focus on long-term goals rather than the ups and downs of life at the moment.

38.Sylvia Murray，a retired nurse，lived for twenty-two years in a small，well- kept house that was the pride of the neighborhood.Her Saturdays followed a cherished routine：she would edge the lawn with precision，nurture her bright rose bushes，and ensure every window box overflowed with colorful blooms.Neighbors often paused on their walks to compliment the tidy garden，and Sylvia beamed with a quiet，profound pride，for this small plot of land was her masterpiece，proof of her care and dedication.
Then，illness and disability gradually stole the strength required to bend，lift，and mow（修剪）.The unstoppable march of nature took over：grass crept over the sidewalk，wild shrubs（灌木丛）pressed against the front windows，and a thick blanket of leaves gathered in corners she could no longer reach.Each messy day deepened Sylvia's shame，as the garden that once symbolized her independence now stood as a very public reminder of her decline.
Seeing Sylvia's struggle with both pride and loneliness，Jenny，a close companion of her，decided to act.She wrote a short，honest post on a local community page.It explained Sylvia's situation，her embarrassment，and included photos of the overgrown yard.The post was a gentle request，asking if anyone could spare an hour，tools，or hands to help.The message was quickly understood by many，its honesty moving dozens of neighbors，and comments of support began to multiply.
Among the replies was a response from the Riverside Youth Volunteers，a local teen service group.Their leader，Johnny，immediately forwarded the post to the team's chat.Despite the fact that Sylvia's street was a 15-20 minute drive for most of them，everyone agreed without hesitation.They quickly held a planning meeting，borrowed extra power tools from the community center，and arranged carpools（拼车） for the upcoming weekend，determined to restore the dignity the post so clearly described.With everything ready，they set out for Sylvia's house the next Sunday.

37.【答案】Dear Chris，
I'm delighted to share a labor experience themed "Labour is the Most Honorable"，which aimed to foster a love for labor and raise our awareness of environmental protection.
On arriving at the worksite，we were split into groups and engaged in a variety of activities.Some planted trees，while some sowed flowers，and the rest did cleaning around the campus.All of us sweated blood to do our job.With our efforts，the campus took on a new look and became more vibrant.Thinking of the shade of the trees and the beauty of the flowers in the future，we felt a great sense of achievement.
I found the experience extremely rewarding，as it deepened my understanding of the value of labor and the significance of a green environment.Looking forward to your sharing of your experience.
Yours，
Li Hua
38.【答案】 Johnny and his teammates stood on Sylvia's doorstep，tools in hand.Jenny led them in，and Sylvia，sitting by the window，teared up at the sight of the smiling teens. "We're here to tidy your garden，Ms.Murray，" Johnny said gently.Without wasting time，the volunteers split into groups：some mowed the overgrown grass，others trimmed the wild shrubs，and a few raked the piles of leaves.They chatted softly with Sylvia as they worked，asking about her roses — making her forget her embarrassment little by little.
As the work progressed，the yard transformed piece by piece.The grass was neatly edged，the rose bushes were pruned back to their former beauty，and the window boxes were refilled with fresh blooms Jenny had brought.When the sun set，the garden looked just like it used to — even brighter.Sylvia walked outside slowly，touching the roses，and said， "You've given me back my pride." The volunteers waved goodbye，but their kindness stayed—turning a messy yard into a warm proof of community care.
