二、阅读理解
While artistic expression develops in countless forms, artists are still pushing boundaries. The new year has brought a host of exciting and inventive exhibitions, including — but not limited to — the following four:
The Space BetweenMonty, Rome| Artist: Gwen Evans Medium: PaintingIntroduction: The artist turns domestic scenes into dreamy paintings to create a familiar and strange feeling. She shows it by painting everyday activities with unexpected changes or mysterious figures. Figure in the FieldMorgan Lehman Gallery, New York Type: Group ExhibitionIntroduction: “Figure in the Field” brings together nine artists who see background as an active part of the image. The exhibition shows how each of them negotiates the relationship between figure and field differently.
KaleidoscopeTHEFOURTH, Cape Town| Artist: Sera Holland| Medium: Mix-medium Painting Introduction: The artist applies thick paint layers, viewing paint as a material that can be built up in three dimensions. Her “Tapestry” works use weaving (编织) logic, making abstract images with thread-like marks like cloth. All Fall DownFrancesco Pantaleone, Palermo, Italy Artists: Concetta Modica and Ignazio Mortellaro| Medium: SculptureIntroduction: In “All Fall Down”, the works — placed on the floor or leaning against the walls — appear about to fall at any moment. Their placement presents a sense of unstable balance, creating a dangerous yet beautiful tension.
Shared Themes: ◎Challenging insight — Pushing boundaries (real vs. surreal, 2D vs. 3D) ◎Reinterpreting materials and space through form and placement
21．What influences Sera Holland’s art creation
A．Ordinary family scenes.

Sent through the washing. Eaten by insects. Bitten by a dog. These are just some of the ways that books can be damaged, as seen on a recent afternoon at the Weissman Preservation Center.
Students in “Texts in Transition,” a GenEd class taught by Professors Ann Blair and Leah Whittington, were visiting the Weissman Preservation Center to witness preservation firsthand. Their course explores how written works are passed down through time.
Conservators play a vital role in this process. Their work — repairing torn manuscripts (手稿), reducing insect damage, and so on — ensures the survival of texts from the ancient to the present. At the Weissman Preservation Center, students learn what happens behind the scenes when conservators step in to keep materials usable and preserve them for the future. “Harvard Library not only has remarkable materials gathered over generations but also expert staff who allow students to experience these treasures up close and from new views,” said Blair, a professor in the History Department.
As students handled the papers, ink and paints before them, they studied the evidence manuscripts offer researchers and the complexities of preservation. “What happens when the original material is no longer available ” one student asked. “Any treatment we apply must not harm the object and can be restored,” explained Eliza, Senior Paper Conservator. “We always respect the integrity of the materials and only make changes that can be reversed, which is important in our conservation standards.”
The class concluded with a close-looking exercise. Using angle lights and pocket microscopes, students examined manuscripts on the table, amazed at iridescent (泛着虹彩的) inks of the pages. One student, enthusiastic about her discoveries, set up her phone to photograph the scene. Turning to senior rare book conservator Jody Beenk, she declared, “I think I have found my career.”
24．What is the “Texts in Transition” course intended to do
A．Teach literary writing.
B．Train paper conservators.
C．Observe ancient books.
D．Explore the survival of old texts.
25．What is special about the Weissman Preservation Center
A．It mainly centers on repairable treasures.
B．It relies on support from Harvard Library.
C．It houses the largest ancient book collection.
D．It allows a thorough look at the preservation process.
26．What does the underlined word “reversed” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Changed back. B．Recreated.
C．Turned over. D．Polished.
27．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．The course inspired career interest.
B．New techniques were used in repairs.
C．Texts were restored with special inks.
D．Students improved photographic skills.
On a recent trip through the Himalayas, my bruises (淤伤) became the truest souvenirs. More personal than anything bought, they carry a unique memory. Over time, my desire for typical souvenirs has faded; I now value experiences over objects. But maybe that’s just me. Two out of three Americans bring back a souvenir from their travels, with US sales topping $21bn in 2022.
Humans have long collected objects to remember experiences. With the rise of industrialization and tourism, souvenirs became more common. Souvenirs bring back happy memories, serving as a simple way to say, “I was there.” “At the heart of our actions is a desire to feel heard, seen and connected,” explains Madarkal, a professor in India.
Travellers today are more aware of their impact on local community, but the problems caused by travel souvenirs are often overlooked. In a 2022 Australian report, up to 75% of souvenirs marketed as “local” are made overseas. Real goods are expensive due to time-consuming labour involved, so some shops sell cheap fakes (假货) with most customers giving little regard to their origins. While buying fakes may seem to support local sellers, it often minimizes the profit of the traditional handicrafts, creating a negative cycle.
So, how can you buy meaningful souvenirs “Be curious... it’s not just about buying or choosing carefully, it’s about rejecting and explaining why,” said Madarkal. Asking where an item comes from and how it is made is a good first step. Choosing unique designs over mass-produced goods at fair-trade markets helps support local communities. Intentions also matter, as souvenirs should be chosen for personal meaning rather than habit. And souvenirs don’t always have to be objects — journals or skills gained can become lasting reminders.
Ultimately, there’s no universal rule for a “meaningful” souvenir. But next time you’re grabbing a quick airport souvenir, pause and reflect.
28．What changed the author’s view on souvenirs
A．A search for adventures. B．A desire for experiences.
C．Fear of physical injuries. D．Changes in life stages.
29．What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A．The increasing popularity of souvenirs. B．The psychological need for souvenirs.
C．The importance of modern tourism. D．The memories tourism brings back.
30．What is the consequence of the negative cycle in paragraph 3
A．Tourism becomes more profitable. B．Local sellers gain long-term benefits.
C．Traditional handicrafts lose the market. D．Souvenir design becomes standardized.
31．What does the author suggest about buying meaningful souvenirs
A．Picking timeless common designs. B．Following your own shopping habits.
C．Choosing intention over convenience. D．Weighing possession over remembrance.
Newly published research finds that tropical forests can recover up to twice as fast after deforestation with sufficient soil nitrogen (氮). Scientists from the University of Leeds launched the largest and longest experiment ever designed to examine how nutrients shape forest regrowth in tropical areas cleared for agriculture.
They selected 76 forest plots across Central America and monitored them for up to 20 years. Each site differed in age and size, allowing the team to track tree growth and death during forest recovery. Different nutrient treatments were applied to test nutrient roles. Some got nitrogen fertilizer, some phosphorus (磷), some both, and others none. This allowed direct comparison of forest responses to different soil conditions.
The results showed that soil nutrients strongly influence tropical forest regrowth speed: nitrogen-rich forests recovered twice as fast as nitrogen-lacking ones in the first 10 recovery years, while phosphorus alone had no such effect. The findings were published on January 13 in the journal Nature Communications. Lead author Wenguang Tang said, “Our study is inspiring because it suggests there are ways we can boost the storage of greenhouse gases through reforestation by managing the nutrients available to trees.”
Although nitrogen fertilizer was used in the experiment, the researchers do not recommend fertilizing forests. Widespread fertilizer use could lead to harmful side effects including polluting rivers and lakes and making the soil too weak for trees to stay healthy. Instead, the team suggests practical alternatives. Forest managers could plant trees from the bean family, which naturally add nitrogen to the soil. Another option is restoring forests in areas that already have sufficient nitrogen due to the effects of air pollution.
Tropical forests slow climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide and storing it in trees. If young tropical forests worldwide lack nitrogen, they may fail to store about 0.69 billion tonnes of CO2 each year — roughly equal to two years of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas release in the U.K.
32．What is the Leeds experiment targeted at
A．Recovery speed of tropical forests. B．Role of nutrients in forest regrowth.
C．Restoration of forests in cleared areas. D．Environmental impact of deforestation.
33．What did the experiment find about forest regrowth
A．Nitrogen boosts recovery speed. B．Combined nutrients work better.
C．Tropical-forests recover naturally. D．Phosphorus aids regrowth indirectly.
34．What can be inferred from the researchers’ recommendation
A．CO2 release should be monitored. B．Bean family trees should be cut down.
C．Nitrogen fertilizer should be used widely. D．We should turn to nature-based solutions.
35．What is the best title of the text
A．Nitrogen: Impact on Climate Change B．Tropical Forests: Global Carbon Sinks
C．Tropical Forests: Growth with Phosphorus D．Nitrogen: The Secret Driving Forest Regrowth
Carpooling is essentially a shared mobility option where individuals use a single vehicle for their home-to-work trips. 36 It’s a step towards sustainable living. With traffic jams and environmental concerns on the rise, carpooling offers a practical solution.
Characteristically, organizing a carpool starts with a group of interested individuals who adjust their schedules to match and agree on pick-up points, a route, and how to share munication is key in a successful carpool. Technology further simplifies this process, facilitating connections between potential carpoolers. 37
Carpooling significantly benefits the environment. It reduces greenhouse gas release and lessens air pollution. This not only benefits public health but also corresponds to global efforts to fight against climate change. 38 They result in higher fuel use and release, while carpooling drops the number of cars on the road, thus smoothing traffic flow and lowering total fuel consumption.
39 The networking is a space where new ideas are shared and exchanged, allowing people to build casual friendships and exchange ideas. Sharing your daily journeys creates a routine of interaction, bridging the separation that can come with daily journeys between one’s home and workplace alone.
40 One common obstacle is managing scheduling conflicts. Last-minute changes or unexpected delays can upset the entire arrangement. Privacy concerns are another issue some might face. Sharing a ride means sharing personal space. It’s important to set ground rules from the start, like keeping the car a phone-free zone. Respect and understanding go a long way in keeping a comfortable environment for all.
A．Traffic jams remain a critical concern.
B．However, carpooling is not without its challenges.
C．Carpooling helps reduce the stress of daily driving.
D．Some people also worry about safety during carpooling.
E．Carpooling adds social enrichment to your everyday life.
F．Yet it is more than just simply sharing rides with one another.
G．With these basics in place, carpooling can be smooth and cost-saving.

In Chinese culture, food is not merely something to eat — it’s an essential part of life. The focus in Chinese cooking is 56 taste, balance, harmony and above all, the 57 (fresh) of ingredients. Unlike people in some fast-paced societies 58 convenience dominates, many Chinese people prefer daily visits to local markets for the finest produce. Traditional diets feature four main groups: grains, vegetables, fruits, and meats. Fresh ingredients are always preferred, with preserved foods like salted fish, or dried fruit 59 (include) only occasionally.
Great value 60 (place) on texture (口感) and original flavors since ancient times. Cooking methods like steaming and stir-frying are preferred to preserve the natural quality of ingredients. Even though Western influences have introduced deep-fried options, traditional cuisine generally avoids heavy frying. The texture, whether it’s the mouthfeel of cooked meat 61 the chewiness of noodles, is considered equally important as taste.
Meals 62 (typical) conclude with light desserts like seasonal fruit or red bean soup. 63 makes the Chinese dining experience unique is this comprehensive approach, 64 (combine) nutritional balance with sensory pleasure. This genuine respect for ingredients and tradition 65 (reflect) a deep cultural wisdom that has been passed down through generations.

六、书面表达
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。
Helen was old and had trouble walking. The first time I saw her, I had just moved to the new neighbourhood. A neighbor warned, “Everybody here is nice except her. Keep your distance.”
I was optimistic — I wouldn’t judge my unknown neighbor. One morning, I waved at her enthusiastically, but she just stared at me and turned away, leaving me annoyed. “Forget her,” I thought. I avoided Helen since then for the next 15 years, even though we lived within 50 feet. Once, I saw her shout at a teen whose bike blocked her driveway — the fight got so heated the police were called.
We never spoke or even looked at each other until my 40th birthday. I planned a big gathering, inviting my mom and many friends. On the party day, friends’ cars packed the road, some occupying a corner of the entrance to Helen’s driveway. Helen began to scream angrily. When I apologized and explained the circumstances, she became combative (好斗的). “I’m not going to allow this. I will call the police every ten minutes.” She was to make the day hard.
My mother was nearing seventy. She took control of the situation. She headed across the street, walked slowly using her cane (拐杖) and approached Helen. From a distance, I watched anxiously. I was afraid Helen was about to hit my mom. But she did not.
My mother returned after twenty minutes. She told me Helen had been worried that she wouldn’t be able to get her car out quickly in an emergency. My mother assured her we would all help if needed. Mother also learned that Helen lived alone because she lost all her family in a car accident — a tragedy (悲剧) I’d never known about.
My mother spoke of Helen without complaint, but with quiet empathy. But all I could think was that as long as Helen didn’t cause any more trouble that day, I’d be content.

And Mom insisted that we invite Helen to the party.

M: Hello, everyone! I’m from the student help center. Today I’d like to tell you about our workshops this term. Each workshop lasts two hours and is free for all students. Our first workshop is called “Adjusting.” After years in a more structured classroom environment, it is easy to feel lost in college. In this session, we’ll talk about the key skills and habits that lead to success at university. As you might guess, we’re targeting first-year students with this offering. The second workshop is “Time and Life.” You will learn how to plan your time, stop putting things off, and keep a good balance between study and fun. Next, we have “Speaking and Understanding.” It helps students talk with teachers and classmates, especially for foreign students. Later, we host guided walks and skill-building sessions. It teaches you simple ways to relax, breathe deeply, and feel peaceful during tests. Our last one is “Keep Your Motivation.” It’s for students who are doing long research projects and need to stay focused. If you want to know more, come and see us at the Guidance Office. We’re happy to help!

66．Dear Tom,
I am writing to share with you my design for the English Reading Room in the library.
The reading room can be divided into two areas: one for different kinds of English books and the other for reading and discussion. We can put novels, magazines and English learning books there and equip it with comfortable chairs.
It is necessary because it can provide us a good environment to practice English, help us improve our reading ability and arouse our interest in English learning.
I hope my suggestions will be helpful to you. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
67．范文
And Mom insisted that we invite Helen to the party. I hesitated at first, still remembering her sharp words and angry screams, but I couldn’t refuse my mother’s earnest request. I walked to Helen’s door, feeling nervous, and gently knocked. When she opened it, her face was still cold, but there was no anger in her eyes. I stammered out the invitation, and to my surprise, she nodded slightly. She slowly grabbed her coat and followed me, her steps unsteady but firm.
I had expected the talk in the party with Helen to be brief. However, she sat quietly by the window, watching everyone laugh and chat, a soft look crossing her face. When I offered her a piece of cake, she thanked me softly — the first kind words I’d ever heard from her. She told me about her family, her voice trembling, and I finally understood her rudeness was just a shield to hide her loneliness. That day, we talked for a long time, and the wall between us crumbled at last.
