A newly formed group of women is creating a map of community fridges and neighborhood pantries (社区食品储藏室) across Baltimore, the Bmore Community Fridge Network. They intend to support neighbors who want to serve others, hoping residents living nearby can get connected to the free food being offered to them.
“We provide resources, therapy, and outpatient services,” said Nikki Smith, the CEO of The Journey Mental Health & Wellness and one of the network organizers. “I don’t care who you are, where you are. If you ring the doorbell and you’re hungry, we will provide food for you,” she added.
The Bmore Community Fridge Network secured a donated refrigerator, which will sit outside of Smith’s center, adding to the community fridge map. Smith added that other organizations were looking to contribute with donations to keep the fridge stocked.
“I’m hoping that everyone will pay it forward and they will understand that ‘Hey wait, there’s somebody here that’s helping. Maybe I can help too,’” she said.
The Food Project will also receive a donated refrigerator, which will sit outside of their center. As the network grows, they are reminding families of the many neighbors across the city who truly care.
The organizers say there are no real rules about how much one can take. They said the Bmore Community Fridge Network is trying to get more fridges and searching for more locations to house them. They encourage everyone to donate to these community fridges by dropping off what you can to a fridge.

Those in Generation Z, born between 1997 and 2012, are the first to grow up with smartphones everywhere and they’re also among those most likely to believe misinformation, according to a new study led by researchers from the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Canada and the University of Cambridge in the UK. The main purpose of the study is to assess the acceptance of misinformation among different groups of people in different countries.
The idea wasn’t to call out particular groups for being more gullible than others, but to get a better understanding of the danger that misinformation poses: to public health, to the future of the planet, and to modern democracies.
The researchers used an online test designed by psychologists to poll 66,242 people across 24 countries. The quiz, called the Misinformation Susceptibility Test (MIST), takes a couple of minutes to complete and asks participants to rank news headlines as real or fake. Some questions about age, education and country are also asked, and participants are invited to assess their own ability to spot fake news — another measure this latest study made use of.
While the differences between groups weren’t huge, those most likely to label real news as fake or vice versa were those in Generation Z, those who were identified as non-male, and those who were less educated.
There was a twist (意外之处): Generation Z had a better-than-average awareness of their own strengths and shortcomings in terms of spotting misinformation than other groups, while more educated groups overestimated their skill in distinguishing real news from fake news.
“There’s still this widespread misconception that digital natives are better at navigation these environments,” says UBC psychologist Friedrich G tz. “That has been proved wrong in the academic world for quite a few years, but I don’t think it has translated into public consciousness.”
The researchers want to see more done by governments and educators to raise awareness of misinformation and the serious damage it can do. It’s also a reminder to be alert when weighing up news headlines — even if you think you’re pretty good at not being fooled.
28．Why is Generation Z specially mentioned in the study
A．They are active. B．They are phone lovers.
C．They are educated. D．They are digital natives.
29．What does the underlined word “gullible” mean in paragraph 2
A．Easy to be taken in. B．Rare to be heard of.
C．Vital to be shown off. D．Hard to be picked out.
30．How did the researchers conduct the study
A．By analyzing news reports. B．By giving an online quiz.
C．By observing people’s behavior. D．By interviewing people face to face.
31．What is expected by the researchers
A．To ban teens’ smartphone use. B．To reduce online news access.
C．To enhance people’s awareness. D．To create stricter fake news laws.
Across the United States, more than 440 national parks and 7,400 urban parks offer a variety of recreational green spaces for people and pets. Yet, the US Forest Service warns that urbanization, including park development, is reducing natural habitats for plants and animals, doing harm to wildlife survival.
How can urban parks continue to be vital shelters for wildlife, even as they are designed to meet the growing needs of people Scientists at the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) studied the parks of one of the most populated counties in the Sunshine State — Broward — to answer that question.
Researchers analyzed over 600 urban green spaces throughout Broward County to explore how different physical features such as tree canopy, athletic facilities, and playgrounds relate to human activity and biodiversity.
“We found that the size of the green space is a strong predictor of both human use and biodiversity. Importantly, our findings highlight that green spaces need to be carefully designed to support biodiversity, but also a mix of green spaces with different goals is important,” says Corey Callaghan, senior author of the study.
To further enhance the coexistence of human activities and wildlife in urban green spaces, the use of modern technology and community involvement is essential. One way to incorporate them is through data-driven insights, made possible by citizen science platforms like iNaturalist, which allow people to directly contribute to our understanding of biodiversity in urban spaces.
Citizen science platforms like iNaturalist played a vital role in gathering the vast amount of biodiversity data needed for this study. By providing members of the public with a way to contribute observations of plants and animals in urban parks, these platforms provide a unique and scalable (可扩展的) tool to assess biodiversity across large areas.
“As cities continue to expand, we need to ensure our green spaces are working harder for both people and biodiversity,” says Callaghan. “That means ongoing investment in research, monitoring, and community science platforms like iNaturalist. The more we know, the better we can design spaces that are inclusive for both humans and biodiversity.”
32．What does US Forest Service say about urban parks
A．They’re benefiting wildlife. B．They’re inadequate for humans.
C．They’re threats to wildlife habitats. D．They’re lacking park maintenance.
33．How do citizen science platforms benefit biodiversity research
A．By collecting large-scale biodiversity data.
B．By educating the public about wildlife.
C．By perfecting the design of eco-friendly parks.
D．By monitoring pollution levels in parks.
34．What does Callaghan believe is essential for future green space development
A．Public awareness. B．Continued support.
C．Advanced equipment. D．Strict regulations.
35．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．The Role of Citizen Science in Urban Park Research
B．The Negative Impact of Urbanization on National Parks
C．The Importance of Large-Sized Green Spaces in Urban Parks
D．The Balance Between Human Needs and Wildlife Habitats in Urban Parks
For most teenagers today, social media is as much a part of daily life as school or homework. 36 Besides, they also share photos and videos on social media, and stay updated on the latest information on the Internet. A 2025 survey of 12,000 teenagers aged between 13 and 18 from 15 countries found that the average teen spends 3.2 hours on social media every day. However, while social media can bring many benefits, it also comes with risks.
Cyberbullying (网络霸凌) is a major problem:45 percent of the teens surveyed said they had experienced mean comments, false information, or threats online. 37 Many teenagers even stay up late looking at their social media feeds every night, which leads to poor sleep. Mental health issues like anxiety and low self-recognition are also linked to social media use, as teens often compare their lives to the “perfect” images they see online.
38 Experts say that setting boundaries is key. Parents can help their kids create a social media schedule, for example, no phones during dinner or an hour before bed. Schools should teach digital skills, helping teens learn to spot false news, protect their privacy, and deal with cyberbullying. Social media companies also have the responsibility to add features like time limits, and hide harmful content. 39
Ultimately, social media itself isn’t good or bad. 40 By working together, parents, teachers, and companies can help teenagers get the most out of social media while avoiding its risks.
A．It’s how teenagers use it that matters.
B．Teenagers use apps to chat with friends.
C．So, how can teenagers use social media in a healthy way
D．Thus, can teenagers get rid of online study in their daily life
E．When used freely, the Internet can be a useful tool for contact.
F．They should also make it easier for teens to report cyberbullying.
G．Overuse of social media can also affect physical and mental health.

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。
At 1 am on Christmas morning, like many other parents, Marisa had holiday magic to make. For weeks, her 6-year-old daughter, Aubree, had been asking for the only thing for Christmas — a “real piano keyboard”. Now that Aubree was asleep, Marisa pulled the box from its hiding spot, ready to reveal the 61-key keyboard with full-size keys — perfect for beginners like Aubree.
Marisa figured if she assembled (组装) the stand and bench, and set the keyboard up, it would be ready to play when Aubree woke up and discovered her surprise. But when she opened the box, she was shocked — only the stand and bench inside, no keyboard.
Panic overtook (突然降临) her as she realized what she had ignored before: The keyboard was sold separately. The night before, mother and daughter had watched the movie The Santa Clause, where the main characters talked about the gifts they desperately wanted in their childhood but never received, making them doubt the existence of Santa.
That scene immediately played in Marisa’s mind. She recalled how happy she was, as a little girl, after getting her first guitar as a gift. So how disappointed would Aubree be when she found no keyboard
“I must do something,”she thought. “Maybe an online seller can deliver a keyboard by morning. Maybe there is a store still open.” She looked into both options, but no luck. Now desperate, Marisa posted in an online neighborhood group. “I’m about to cry,” she wrote, explaining the situation, “I’m so afraid this will ruin her Christmas.”
At 2 am, 5 miles from Marisa’s house, Spenser had just finished decorating his Christmas tree when he saw the post. He thought of the 61-key keyboard that he got for his 18-year-old daughter, Hailey, three years ago. But honestly, Hailey hardly played it. Spencer told the news to Hailey and Hailey offered to send it to Aubree without hesitation. “I am glad to play the role of someone’s Santa Claus,” she said. Spencer picked up his phone and sent a message.
注意：
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Reading the message, Marisa couldn’t believe her good luck.

M: Excellent. Do you study at the moment
W: Yeah, but I don’t take the courses in design or art.
M: There is nothing to do with your job at all! So what do you study

W: That sounds fantastic! But where do you usually rent the boat
M: Well, we’re fortunate to be members of the Sailors Club located right there. It offers us the convenience of renting a boat on the spot without the need for booking.
W: That’s really great! But is the rent high
M: Our membership gives us a generous 30% discount. For a boat, it’s only $70 a day, which is quite reasonable for such an adventure.
W: That’s an amazing deal! I’ve been feeling a bit burnt out from the usual sunbathing. This will be a refreshing change.
M: I thought you might feel that way. By the way, have you considered inviting Lily and Andy to join us
W: That’s a great idea. But you should check with them personally. As far as I know, they rarely miss an opportunity to go fishing. They might already have their Friday plans, but it never hurts to ask.

W: Good morning, classmates. Today I’d like to tell you some New Year’s traditions around the world. Many cultures have traditions meant to bring good luck or hope when celebrating the New Year. They often involve using fireworks, like in my hometown. But there are other ways that people do it. In Scotland, for example, people from a town walk through the streets with large fireballs over their heads. In Panama, people use fire to burn life-sized dolls made out of recycled material. These dolls represent the old year. Burning them brings a fresh start for the new year. Of course, some traditions do not involve fire at all. For example, just before the New Year, people in Denmark find the highest surface they can and jump from it as the New Year start. There is one thing that is similar — all the activities are celebrations for a new year full of promise and new beginnings.

Our Class Garden: A Journey of Growth
After a semester of hard work, our class vegetable garden has finally borne fruit. Our greatest achievement was harvesting rows of fresh lettuce and radishes. More than that, we kept a growth chart and learned how water and sunlight affect plants.
This experience has taught me valuable lessons. I never realized how much care and patience farming requires. Seeing the tiny seeds we planted grow into food filled me with pride and a sense of responsibility. After I took part in growing vegetables in our class garden, I now understand and respect the work of farmers much more. This garden was not just about growing vegetables; it was about growing as a team and learning from nature.

Reading the message, Marisa couldn’t believe her good luck. Tears of relief streamed down as she replied eagerly to pick up the keyboard. She threw on her coat and drove through the quiet Christmas night on snow-covered roads. Hailey waited warmly at the door, handing over the well-preserved keyboard with a smile. Marisa hugged her gratefully, offered to pay for it but was refused. “It is a Christmas gift,” Hailey smiled sincerely. Struck by the strangers’ kindness, Marisa rushed back, assembled everything, and stared at the keyboard, warmth filling her heart.
On Christmas morning, Aubree woke up and saw the amazing keyboard. Her eyes widened with pure wonder and she burst into cheers, clapping her hands excitedly and rushing to the keyboard. She ran her small fingers over the smooth keys, pressing gently to hear the clear notes. Marisa watched her daughter’s bright smile, her heart melting. Later, Marisa told Aubree about Spenser and Hailey’s kindness. Aubree nodded seriously, saying, “I also want to be a Santa someday.” That Christmas, the magic wasn’t just in the keyboard, but in the warm hearts that connected two families.
