Jake Morrison, a high school teacher in a small town in Oregon, US, once knew little about community gardening — except for seeing his grandma looking after tomato plants in her backyard. It wasn’t until his niece Zara got addicted to electronic devices that he decided to take action. He introduced kids like Zara to gardening, and that’s how they first got involved in the Springdale Kids’ Garden program, a local initiative launched in 2015.
Zara grew deeply passionate about gardening through this program and now assists in managing a youth garden club at her school. In 2020, Jake launched a new project called Little Sprouts, which is designed to instruct kids aged 5 to 7 in vegetable growing.
Thanks to Morrison’s support, over 80 kids participate free of charge each summer for 4 weeks. They spend 90 minutes every Tuesday and Thursday improving their gardening skills, with each child receiving a small shovel (小铲子), a pair of gloves, and a hat. “They learn to dig, sow seeds, water young plants, and harvest vegetables in an engaging, secure setting,” Jake explained. “It gets them active, away from their electronic devices. Gardening builds patience, and they enjoyed consuming what they’ve grown. Sure enough, more kids expressed interest in joining.”
To fund the project, he spent his after-school hours collecting used plastic bottles and old newspapers from the neighborhood, carefully cleaning and sorting them before selling the recyclables to a nearby firm. “At first, the residents questioned my motives, assuming that I was doing this just to make a profit, but now even people I don’t know stop by to drop off their recyclables at my door,” he shared. This recycling effort generates about $15,000 each year, which covers all the garden’s needs.
Jake says that watching the kids’ excitement when picking their first carrots or tomatoes brings him great satisfaction. “Not only is less waste ending up in landfills, but we’ve got kids who prefer digging in soil to looking through their smart phones,” he added.
4.Why did Jake enter the field of gardening
A. To break his niece’s screen habit.
B. To join a community initiative.
C. To develop his teaching methods.
D. To repay his grandma’s instruction.
5.What can be learned about Little Sprouts
A. It mainly targets teenagers.
B. It provides daily activities.
C. It requires a participation fee.
D. It takes kids’ safety into account.
6.What did people think of Jake’s recycling at first
A. It needed to be supported. B. It greatly funded his project.
C. It benefited him financially. D. It would make little difference.
7.What is Jake’s educational philosophy according to the text
A. Still waters run deep. B. Experience teaches best.
C. Never too old to learn. D. Practice makes perfect.

More than 20,000 ready-to-cook fotiaoqiang have been exported to the United States and Canada, marking the first international shipment for Juchunyuan, a time-honored Chinese food brand.
Fotiaoqiang, also known as “Buddha Jumps over the Wall”, gets its name from a legend that its irresistible scent could tempt even a vegetarian Buddha to leap over a wall for a taste. This luxurious dish mixes expensive ingredients like abalone (鲍鱼), chicken, and mushrooms, which are slow-cooked for hours or even days to blend rich flavors. Dating back to the reign of Emperor Tongzhi (1862-1875) of the Qing Dynasty, it is often served at special events, symbolizing wealth and hospitality. The original recipe was created at Juchunyuan restaurant in Fuzhou, the capital city of Fujian.
“For many overseas Chinese, fotiaoqiang is a must at Spring Festival feasts,” said Wang Yue, deputy general manager of Fuzhou Juchunyuan Group. Now, they are processed following the standards for ready-to-cook foods and then, they are distributed via a cold chain system. This keeps the traditional flavor preserved. It would have been very difficult to make and export Chinese delicacies like fotiaoqiang in large quantities due to their intricate production procedures and complex traditional preparation methods. The maturing of the ready-to-cooking food business has presented new opportunities for Chinese catering (饮食) companies to break into overseas markets, according to Wang.
There are around 60 million overseas Chinese worldwide. This means there is huge potential for the export of Chinese foods. China’s abundant supply of agricultural produce, rich food culture, stable industry and supply chain, and policy support from local authorities in recent years, have collectively laid solid groundwork for taking ready-to-cook Chinese foods globally.
In June, Fujian province hosted a special event for more than 40 suppliers. They were able to connect both online and offline with representatives of over 10 buyers from the US and Canada. This will help take the country’s food culture further to the world.
8.What can be learned about fotiaoqiang in the first two paragraphs
A. It was initially served in court.
B. It is a dish with unique cultural identity.
C. It has a fascinating religious origin.
D. It mirrors a dialogue between different cultures.
9.What is the main challenge in exporting fotiaoqiang in large quantities
A. High costs of expensive ingredients.
B. Less acceptance by vegetarian consumers.
C. Technical complexity of cooking methods.
D. Limited cold chain technology.
10.What does the underlined word “collectively” in the fourth paragraph mean
A. Thoroughly. B. Literally. C. Sincerely. D. Jointly.
11.What’s the passage mainly about
A. The global expansion of Chinese ready-to-cook foods.
B. The cultural heritage value of Fujian’s iconic dish.
C. The challenges of preserving traditional cooking skills.
D. Authorities’ support in boosting regional food exports.
D
How individuals describe their experiences plays a crucial role in shaping emotions and decision-making. However, little research has examined whether language can impact how people experience time alone. To find it out, researchers studied how different terms used to describe time alone affect individuals understanding of it and their emotions and behaviors.
In the first study, 500 adults were randomly assigned to evaluate one of five labels describing time alone: me-time, time alone, solitude (孤单), being alone, or isolation (孤独). They rated their assigned term on several dimensions, including how positive or negative it felt, its perceived impact on well-being, and whether they actively sought or avoided that type of experience.
This study revealed that “me-time” was consistently rated as the most positive, with participants considering it as beneficial to well-being and something they actively sought out. In contrast, “isolation” was viewed as the least desirable. The other three labels fell somewhere in between.
In the second study, 176 undergraduate students were randomly assigned to a 30-minute solitude period described as either me-time or isolation. Before the session, they completed a survey measuring baseline beliefs about being alone. During the session, they avoided all social interactions, but could engage in non-social activities like reading or writing. Afterward, they rated their emotions, described their thoughts and behaviors, and reassessed their beliefs about being alone.
Those who spent 30 minutes alone after being told they were having “me-time” reported an increase in positive effect, while those who were told they were in “isolation” experienced a decline in positive emotions. Additionally, participants in the “me-time” condition reported more positive beliefs about being alone after the session compared to their baseline beliefs, while those in the “isolation” condition showed no significant change.
Interestingly, choice of terms did not significantly influence the activities participants engaged in. But it did appear to shape thought content, with those in the “isolation” condition being more likely to think about schoolwork, while those in the “me-time” condition were more likely to reflect on personal growth.
The studies, however, involved individuals that consisted primarily of adults and undergraduate students, limiting the generalizability of the findings across diverse populations.
12.One of the research purposes is to explore ________.
A. the benefits of positive emotions
B. people s preferences for time alone
C. how people make decisions while alone
D. how language shapes people s perceptions
13.What can be concluded from the first study
A. People treasure their time of being alone.
B. Label selection reflects people s personality.
C. People prefer being alone to social interaction.
D. Terms for time alone affect emotional responses.
14.Why were the baseline beliefs about being alone rated
A. To predict future outcomes.
B. To ensure accurate understanding.
C. To track potential opinion shifts.
D. To group the participants accordingly.
15.What is the limitation of the research
A. Contradictory results. B. Restricted participant range.
C. Controlled research duration. D. Unreliable research methods.

Body language, sometimes called “non-verbal communication”, is an important tool that greatly influences your success from personal relationships to your career. By paying closer attention to it, you can communicate more effectively. 16
Have good posture. Stand or sit up straight, but stay relaxed. 17 Good posture not only improves how others perceive you but can also genuinely affect how you feel, boosting your internal confidence. Whether in meetings or daily conversations, this is a silent yet powerful form of self-presentation.
Maintain appropriate eye contact. Holding eye contact during conversation shows you are listening and care. It directly signals that you are focused on the speaker and interested in what they are saying. 18 Staring too intensely can come across as aggressive, while constantly looking away may suggest disinterest or dishonesty. 19
20 Use your hands to make your ideas clearer. For example, counting on your fingers when listing items, or using hand motions to illustrate size or trends can enhance the persuasiveness of your speech. But remember to keep your gestures smooth, not too fast or wild. Good gestures should help your words, not take attention away from them.
A．Emphasize your point with gestures.
B．Communicate by gestures.
C．However, it should feel natural and comfortable.
D．This will help you better get your message across.
E．This shows you are confident and paying attention.
F．Specifically, here are some ideas for using body language to communicate.
G．Striking the right balance helps build trust and connection without making others uneasy.

37.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写二段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was in junior high school, my home was only a ten-minute walk from the school. Instead of staying in the dormitory, I went home every noon to have lunch with my mother. These daily lunches were a comforting routine, but little did I know that these lunchtimes would have a profound impact on me.
The school year’s highlight was the annual drama competition. To my joy and surprise, I was selected by my teacher to play the lead role of the princess in the play. It was a dream part, and I was determined to excel. Every day after lunch, my mother would help me practice my lines. However, a frustrating problem arose. No matter how perfectly I delivered my lines in the living room, the moment I stepped onto the vast stage, my mind would go blank. The bright lights and silent, expectant audience seemed to swallow my words whole. After several unsuccessful rehearsals, my teacher, with a sympathetic but firm expression, made a difficult decision. She took me aside, explaining that she believed my clear voice was perfectly suited for the crucial role of the narrator, and asked me to consider switching roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed something was wrong. After lunch, instead of practicing lines as usual, she invited me for a walk in the yard. The yard was full of beautiful red roses in full bloom. But among the roses grew many white dandelions (蒲公英). I asked my mother why she didn’t remove the dandelions. She replied that she thought every flower had its own beauty, whether it was a delicate rose or a small dandelion. Her simple, accepting words struck a chord (引起共鸣) deep within me.

37.【答案】I could no longer hold back the flood of sad tears. Choking on my sobs, I confessed everything — how my mind went blank on stage, how the teacher replaced me, and how ashamed I felt. “I’ve failed you after all our practice,” I cried. My mother gently wiped my cheeks and pointed back to the dandelions. “You see,” she said softly, “I never thought of removing them because every flower has its own beauty. The roses are the stars, but the dandelions hold the story together — just like a narrator. Their quiet beauty doesn’t take away from the roses; it completes the garden.” Her words slowly eased the tightness in my chest. I looked again at the humble white flowers, no longer seeing them as weeds, but as gentle storytellers nestled among the stars.
“You will be an excellent narrator,” Mom said, holding my hands. “Your voice is clear and warm, and you understand the heart of the story better than anyone.” Inspired, I devoted myself to the new role. On the night of the performance, I stood at the side of the stage, script in hand. As I began to speak, my voice, calm and confident, flowed through the auditorium, guiding the audience through the story. When the curtain fell, my teacher praised me, saying the narration had moved everyone. I finally understood that every role, like every flower, has its own unique beauty and value. That day, I learned that shining isn’t only about being the rose in the spotlight — it’s also about being the dandelion that tells the story with quiet grace.
38.【答案】Dear Mark,
Thank you for your letter. It’s great to hear from you, and I’m happy to offer my thoughts on studying abroad.
In my opinion, studying overseas is a valuable opportunity that I would generally encourage you to consider. It can be a truly life-enriching experience.
I believe this for several key reasons. Firstly, it significantly promotes personal growth. Living independently in a new country helps you develop adaptability, resilience, and problem-solving skills. Secondly, it offers an unparalleled academic and cultural experience. Exposed to different educational approaches, you will gain a global perspective and improve your language skills immensely. These advantages are highly beneficial for your future career and personal development.
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but I believe the potential benefits make it a path worth serious consideration. All the best with your decision, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Yours,
Li Hua

They rated their assigned term on several dimensions, including how positive or negative it felt, its perceived impact on well-being, and whether they actively sought or avoided that type of experience.
This study revealed that “me-time” was consistently rated as the most positive, with participants considering it as beneficial to well-being and something they actively sought out. In contrast, “isolation” was viewed as the least desirable. The other three labels fell somewhere in between.
In the second study, 176 undergraduate students were randomly assigned to a 30-minute solitude period described as either me-time or isolation. Before the session, they completed a survey measuring baseline beliefs about being alone. During the session, they avoided all social interactions, but could engage in non-social activities like reading or writing. Afterward, they rated their emotions, described their thoughts and behaviors, and reassessed their beliefs about being alone.
Those who spent 30 minutes alone after being told they were having “me-time” reported an increase in positive effect, while those who were told they were in “isolation” experienced a decline in positive emotions. Additionally, participants in the “me-time” condition reported more positive beliefs about being alone after the session compared to their baseline beliefs, while those in the “isolation” condition showed no significant change.
Interestingly, choice of terms did not significantly influence the activities participants engaged in. But it did appear to shape thought content, with those in the “isolation” condition being more likely to think about schoolwork, while those in the “me-time” condition were more likely to reflect on personal growth.
The studies, however, involved individuals that consisted primarily of adults and undergraduate students, limiting the generalizability of the findings across diverse populations.

Body language, sometimes called “non-verbal communication”, is an important tool that greatly influences your success from personal relationships to your career. By paying closer attention to it, you can communicate more effectively. 16
Have good posture. Stand or sit up straight, but stay relaxed. 17 Good posture not only improves how others perceive you but can also genuinely affect how you feel, boosting your internal confidence. Whether in meetings or daily conversations, this is a silent yet powerful form of self-presentation.
Maintain appropriate eye contact. Holding eye contact during conversation shows you are listening and care. It directly signals that you are focused on the speaker and interested in what they are saying. 18 Staring too intensely can come across as aggressive, while constantly looking away may suggest disinterest or dishonesty. 19
20 Use your hands to make your ideas clearer. For example, counting on your fingers when listing items, or using hand motions to illustrate size or trends can enhance the persuasiveness of your speech. But remember to keep your gestures smooth, not too fast or wild. Good gestures should help your words, not take attention away from them.
A．Emphasize your point with gestures.
B．Communicate by gestures.
C．However, it should feel natural and comfortable.
D．This will help you better get your message across.
E．This shows you are confident and paying attention.

37.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写二段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was in junior high school, my home was only a ten-minute walk from the school. Instead of staying in the dormitory, I went home every noon to have lunch with my mother. These daily lunches were a comforting routine, but little did I know that these lunchtimes would have a profound impact on me.
The school year’s highlight was the annual drama competition. To my joy and surprise, I was selected by my teacher to play the lead role of the princess in the play. It was a dream part, and I was determined to excel. Every day after lunch, my mother would help me practice my lines. However, a frustrating problem arose. No matter how perfectly I delivered my lines in the living room, the moment I stepped onto the vast stage, my mind would go blank. The bright lights and silent, expectant audience seemed to swallow my words whole. After several unsuccessful rehearsals, my teacher, with a sympathetic but firm expression, made a difficult decision. She took me aside, explaining that she believed my clear voice was perfectly suited for the crucial role of the narrator, and asked me to consider switching roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed something was wrong. After lunch, instead of practicing lines as usual, she invited me for a walk in the yard. The yard was full of beautiful red roses in full bloom. But among the roses grew many white dandelions (蒲公英). I asked my mother why she didn’t remove the dandelions. She replied that she thought every flower had its own beauty, whether it was a delicate rose or a small dandelion. Her simple, accepting words struck a chord (引起共鸣) deep within me.

37.【答案】I could no longer hold back the flood of sad tears. Choking on my sobs, I confessed everything — how my mind went blank on stage, how the teacher replaced me, and how ashamed I felt. “I’ve failed you after all our practice,” I cried. My mother gently wiped my cheeks and pointed back to the dandelions. “You see,” she said softly, “I never thought of removing them because every flower has its own beauty. The roses are the stars, but the dandelions hold the story together — just like a narrator. Their quiet beauty doesn’t take away from the roses; it completes the garden.” Her words slowly eased the tightness in my chest. I looked again at the humble white flowers, no longer seeing them as weeds, but as gentle storytellers nestled among the stars.
“You will be an excellent narrator,” Mom said, holding my hands. “Your voice is clear and warm, and you understand the heart of the story better than anyone.” Inspired, I devoted myself to the new role. On the night of the performance, I stood at the side of the stage, script in hand. As I began to speak, my voice, calm and confident, flowed through the auditorium, guiding the audience through the story. When the curtain fell, my teacher praised me, saying the narration had moved everyone. I finally understood that every role, like every flower, has its own unique beauty and value. That day, I learned that shining isn’t only about being the rose in the spotlight — it’s also about being the dandelion that tells the story with quiet grace.
38.【答案】Dear Mark,
Thank you for your letter. It’s great to hear from you, and I’m happy to offer my thoughts on studying abroad.
In my opinion, studying overseas is a valuable opportunity that I would generally encourage you to consider. It can be a truly life-enriching experience.
I believe this for several key reasons. Firstly, it significantly promotes personal growth. Living independently in a new country helps you develop adaptability, resilience, and problem-solving skills. Secondly, it offers an unparalleled academic and cultural experience. Exposed to different educational approaches, you will gain a global perspective and improve your language skills immensely. These advantages are highly beneficial for your future career and personal development.
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but I believe the potential benefits make it a path worth serious consideration. All the best with your decision, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Yours,
Li Hua
