Conventionally butterflies were regarded not as fascinating subjects for close observation but
assymbols ofshallowness.But Eleanor Granville treatedthemwith scientific seriousness.
In her thirties, though suffering from a marriage where the husband was violent and even
turned her family against her, Granville sought comfort by studying moths and butterflies. She
travelled around the countryside with local girls, beating bushes to catch falling larvae （幼虫）,
and recruited her servants as assistants to collect specimens （ 样 本 ）. Because of unusual
generosity in paying for a fine specimen, she soon accumulated a substantial collection of
butterflies. After bringing larvae home, she meticulously logged their growth, providing some of
the earliestdetailed accounts ofinsectlifecycles.
However, wandering the countryside with a collecting net was considered weird behavior for
anyone back then,let alonea woman,and shewasaccused ofgoing out dressed like a"gypsy".
Besides her own extensive research, Granville exchanged letters and butterflies with other
collectors. Another enthusiast William Vernon reported that she had owned "the noblest collections
of butterflies, all English, which has shamed us". She sent 100 examples to the Royal Society and
also sent James Petiver, England's most celebrated butterfly expert, boxes of carefully pinned
butterflies, including several that had been previously unknown, and notably the one later named
the Granville fritillary whose wings carry striking brown and yellow patterns, a species of special
concern dueto thedecline ofthetotal numberunder theinfluence of foodloss andhotterweather.
Eleanor Granville remains the only British naturalist to have left their name to a native
butterfly species. A pioneer in the study of entomology （昆虫学）, Cranville helped make it an
academic subject. Regretfully, only two moths and a butterfly of Granville's precious specimens are
still preserved in London's Natural History Museum. Her namelives onthebutterflies sheloved.
24.What doweknowabout Granville?
A. She paidgenerouslyfor everyspecimen.
B. She was accusedofdeserting herfamily.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C. Studyingbutterfliesprovided anescape fromher life.
D. Workingwith localgirls earnedher agoodreputation.
25.What canwe learn fromParagraph 4?

B. Granville's efforts shamedtheRoyal Society.
C. The Granvillefritillaryis anendangered species.
D. Granville'swork wasacademicallyrecognized.
26.How did Granvillecontributeto thefield ofentomology?
A. Bynaming butterflies andmoths.
B. By studyingrarebutterfly specimens.
C. By offeringuphercollections forresearch.
D. Byintroducingentomology intouniversities.

C
The world feels like it's being set alight. Wildfires in Canada and Europe, floods in China, and
a never-ending stream of record-breaking heat waves have constantly dominated newspaper
headlines. The feeling that time is quickly running out is very real. But that feeling is a barrier to
action-Nothing has changed when we've called for action before, so considering the seemingly
limitedtime window.
Our past efforts tell us there is a chance. The world has solved large environmental problems
that seemed impossible to overcome at the time. An eye-opening example is acid rain. Studying
how the world dealt with this geopolitically divisive problem can give us some inspiration on how
we canaddress climate changetoday.
It hasmostly slipped fromthe public conversation, but acid rain wasthe leading environmental
problem of the 1990s. Caused by sulfur dioxide （二氧化硫）,it dissolved old sculptures, stripped
forests of their leaves, and polluted rivers and lakes. Emissions from the UK would blow over to
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Sweden and Norway; emissions from the US would blow over to Canada. This is a classic game
theory problem; outcomes don't only depend on the actions of one country but those of the others
too. Eventually, government officials had to sign international agreements, place emissions limits
on power plants and start to reduce coal burning. Interventions were incredibly effective. In Europe,
sulfurdioxide emissions fellby84percentand in theUS by90percent.
Surely climate change is not the perfect parallel for the environmental problems we've solved
before. It will be harder. It will involve every country, rich and poor. But change is happening. To
accelerate action, we need to have the expectation that things can move faster. Past lessons tell us
that these expectationsare notunrealistic.
28.How doesthesense ofurgencyaffect attitudesto climatechange?
A. Itdiscouragesteam work.
B. Itfuels doubtsaboutefforts.
C. Itarouses fearfor disasters.
D. Itweakens trustin newspapers.
29.Why doestheauthordiscuss acidrain?
A. Toanalyze thecauses ofpresent challenges.
B. Toboost public confidencein thegovernment.
C. Tohighlightacid rain'senvironmental damage.
D. Tooffer insightsinto handling climatechange.
30.What wasthe main challengeinaddressing acid rain?
A. Theseriousnessof thepollution.
B. Unequal sharesof responsibility.
C. Seekinginternational cooperation.
D. Reducingsulfurdioxide emissions.
31.What isthe author'sattitude to currentclimatechangemeasures?
A. Unsatisfied.
B. Dismissive.
C. Optimistic.
D. Approving.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司In July 1915, severely tortured by his poor health, James Murray, one of the early editors of
the Oxford English Dictionary （OED）, defined one final word. After his 36 years' dedication to
the dictionary,his hardlabour hadtaken atoll.Knowinghewould not see theproject complete.
The poetic quality of Murray's final days is one of the many memorable tales in The
Dictionary People. Beginning in 1857, the OED was a huge crowdsourcing project-"the Wikipedia
ofthe 19th century"-comprising 3,000people.The ideawas to createa "descriptive"dictionarythat
tracked words' use and meaning over time, unlike its "prescriptive"18th-century predecessor by
Samuel Johnson, which told readers how to say and use words. Volunteers read widely, mailing in
examples of how "rare, old-fashioned, new, strange" words were used. What is surprising about this
fairly randommethod is that it worked.
The origin story of Sarah Ogilvie's book is almost as improbable as that of the dictionary itself.
Ms Ogilvie, a former scholar who served as an editor for the OED, went into the documents of
Oxford University Pressand came across an old notebook.It had belonged to Murray and contained
the names and details of the dictionary volunteers, most of whom had previously been unknown.
The Dictionary People is her work of detective scholarship, bringing the lives behind the names to
readers.
Ms Ogilvie's book is full of intriguing stories. The presentation of the book is unconventional,
too, taking its structure from the work it describes. There are 26 alphabetical chapters, each
celebrating a group of contributors （ memorably, "K" is for "kleptomaniac" people who desire to
steal）.This is a clever arrangement, though it sometimes means that broader issues emergeonly in
pieces.
Essentially, this is a story about ordinary people. It is concrete proof of those who, to cite
dictionary-helper GeorgeEliot, "livedfaithfullya hiddenlife,and restin unvisitedtombs".
32.What doestheunderlined expression "takenatoll"in paragraph 1mean?
A. Paidoff.
B. Provedin vain.
C. Worn out thepassion.
D. Hadaharmful effect.
33.What canwe learnabouttheOxford English Dictionary?
A. Itserves as anexample ofdictionaryediting.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司B. Itprovides precisedirections for wordusage.
C. Itis acooperativework ofmany volunteers.
D. Itwas editedwith thehelpof Samuel Johnson.
34.What isparagraph 3mainly about?
A. Thestory behindSarah Ogilvie's book.
B. The detectivemethods ofSarah Ogilvie.
C. Legends oftheearly OED editors.
D. Murray'srole in editingthe OED.
35.Where isthetext most probablytaken from?
A. Areviewofa book.
B. Abiography ofaneditor.
C. Anessay ondictionaryediting.
D. Anintroductionto a dictionary.

"Tidying can transform your life. This is the attractive promise from Japanese decluttering
（清理） expert Marie Kondo. Around 11 million people have bought her book, The Life-
Changing Magic ofTidying Up,hoping toachieve herminimalistic happiness.
Kondo's method is straightforward-Tidy your home by category instead of by room, pull
everything out before sorting it out, and keep only things that are useful or "spark joy". 36 Clothes,
kitchen tools,paperwork, evenbooks should becarefully examined, assessedand thrownaway.
Scientific research suggests Kondo is on to something. 37 For example, researchers at the
University of Navarra found volunteers made less mistakes inputting data in a neat environment
than in a messy one. On the other hand, other studies show clutter（杂乱） can reduce our ability
to focus on a task, which may explain why some people just cannot stand working at a messy desk.
38Itcan even makeus more likely toreach forjunk food.
But for most of us, piles of clutter may not seem like a big deal. 39 And for many people,
some objects are tied to emotionally significant memories and represent a piece of our identity,
which is difficult to throw away. Scientists believe that there is a real value in clutter and nostalgia
学科网（北京）股份有限公司（怀旧）, especially if we are unlucky enough to develop Alzheimer's in later life. 40 However,
thosethat evoke happy memoriesare priceless, especiallyto people with memoryproblems.
As Albert Einstein-the owner of an extremely messy desk-is often quoted as saying: "If a
cluttered deskis a signof acluttered mind,of what,then,is anempty deska sign?"
A. Butcan wereally bebetter offwith less stuff?
B. The wordclutterimplies itdoesn't havevalue.
C. Tidy environmentshelpus think moreclearly.
D. Livingin atidy space can greatlyincrease happiness.
E.Messiness canalsomake it harderforus to fallasleep.
F. All that stuffjusthelps turnthe buildingswe live ininto homes.

ASelf-Discovery Journey at"KnowYourself"
Last Friday, I had the privilege of attending the "Know Yourself" event organized by our
school's Psychology Club-ajourney intoself-discovery that wasboth enrichingand enjoyable.
The event, held in the school library, aimed to guide students in gaining a deeper
understanding of themselves and promoting mental well-being. The activities were diverse, ranging
from group discussions on stress- coping strategies to enjoyable psychological tests that unveiled
personality traits andbehavioral tendencies.
Through these activities, I gained insights into my coping mechanisms under pressure.
Additionally, the psychological tests provided me with new perspectives to better plan my future
development. I believe such experiences are invaluable for all participants and will have a positive
impact onourfuture growth.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司第二节范文：
Emma sprang to her feet, "Let's hold a bake sale to raise funds!" Everyone presents lit up,
nodding in agreement. With respective tasks, the children and parents got down to the preparation.
Emma's father made a huge banner reading "Saving the Playground" while Leo's mom occupied
herself with paperwork needed to issue a permit for the sale. Meanwhile, kids worked jointly to
design and hand out the leaflets. Eventually, the big day came. Almost every family in their
community contributed their delicious homemade treats. That Sunday morning, the aroma of
freshly baked cookies and cakes filled the air as people lined up to support the cause. Being a
tremendous success, thesalein thefarmer's marketwent foranother 2months.
Their hard work paid off. As news of their efforts spread, local businesses started pitching in.
The hardware store donated paint and materials, while the gardening center provided plants and
flowers. The children worked tirelessly, transforming the worn-out playground into a vibrant and
inviting space once again. On the day of re-opening, the children organized a community
celebration, inviting everyone who had contributed to the project to share the joy. The children of
Meadowville taught theworldthat with determination, unity,and alittlebit offundraising, anything
is possible. The playground stood as a testament to their resilience and the power of their youthful
spirits, remindingeveryonethat dreams can beachieved whenhearts cometogether.
