To truly help our planet, we need to connect with it. And the good news is you don’t have to be a
qualified expert to support the cause. Here are some of the many incredible projects looking for volunteers.
Big Butterfly Count
Scheduled between 18 July and 10 August in 2025, involvement in this project run by Butterfly
Conservation is more important than ever, as the 2024 results indicate a significant drop of these beautiful
biodiversity indicators. Participants are asked to spend 15 minutes everyday recording butterflies they see,
either via their website tracker or app. Head to bigbutterflycount.butterfly-conservation.org to join in.
The Great UK WaterBlitz
This twice-a-year campaign from the FreshWater Wash aims to assess water quality across the UK. The
next one runs from 25-28 April 2025, and asks volunteers to record the water quality in local freshwater
sources. To help in the upcoming campaign, simply register your interest at

Somewhere my acquaintance with the computer started when I was working on my thesis. I was
initiated into it, quite unintentionally, when I was looking for a convenient way to store my research
material. I have since been busy communicating with my readers and students through the net. I can hardly
believe it myself that a technophobe like me could somehow get engaged with the most modern technology!
Our son has left for university and our spoilt daughter has gone overseas. Since they left home the net
has become the best way for our family to communicate and share our feelings.
We started off sending messages by email only -just to say hello, to seek help and to caution. Messages
such as: “Please have a look at this email. I can’t open it. “Or, one that I sent to my daughter says: “So you
rang to say you’d lost your credit card. The very thing that I’ve been worrying about! If you don’t try hard to
mend your careless ways, you’ll wake up one morning and find that you’ve lost your brain as well.”
And my son’s messages are typical in their sensational (耸人听闻的) headings, such as “Help me
please!” “Help again, please!” They are always about money, no different from the notes he left when he
was young. My daughter, on the other hand, would persuade her elder brother like a grand old lady: “Don’t
upset Mum when I’m not home. Go back to see Mum and Dad every now and then. They’ve only got you
and me.”
Recently, our son has been emailing me all kinds of articles: funny, touching, intellectual. . . the lot.
Recommended reading, he said, would help me understand my students’ ideas and keep abreast of the times,
so I wouldn’t be written off as over-the-hill too soon. I read the articles religiously, like an well-behaved
pupil. I appreciate my son’s good will with mixed feelings. The kid I was bombarding with newspaper
clippings not that long ago has now become my mentor! He must be thinking that his mother is still willing
to embrace new ideas. That makes me feel proud, despite the confusing sense of role reversal that I have.
英语试卷 第3页/共9页
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司Through the net, we chat, exchange ideas and encourage each other with a gentle and beautiful language
we seldom use. Every time I sit in front of the computer and read those instant messages, I feel family
warmth welling up in my heart and a profound gratitude to modern technology.
24. The author got acquainted with the net initially to ________.
.
A keep pace with the times B. communicate with her readers
C. meet academic needs D. exchange ideas with her children
25. Why did the author mention so many messages in paragraph 3?
A. To show her daughter’s immaturity. B. To indicate the net’s influence on her.
C. To blame her daughter’s carelessness. D. To express her love for her children.
26. Which of the following can best describe the author in the son’s eyes?
A. Open-minded. B. Well-educated. C. Well-behaved. D. Old-fashioned.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. It Is the Power of the Net B. Technology Changes Life
C. Here Comes an Internet Mum D. Mum’s Role Changes
C
Chocolate is a popular snack, but the price of it continues to rise. Cocoa from the cacao tree is the basic
ingredient of chocolate; the trees thrive in warm and damp climates but are struggling due to increasing
aridity — a slow but non-stop drying of the land. This issue extends to producers around the globe,
threatening cocoa production and livelihoods of farmers.
Over the past 30 years, more than three-quarters of the Earth’s landmass has become drier. This dryness
is a long-term transformation with disastrous consequences for ecosystems, agriculture, and livelihoods.
Aridity arises from human-driven factors, including greenhouse gas emissions, unsustainable land use,
and natural resource degradation. Climate change, primarily caused by fossil fuel consumption and
deforestation, increases global temperatures, accelerating evaporation (蒸发) and heightening water shortage
— even in regions with moderate rainfall.
Unsustainable land use further intensifies aridity. Practices like deforestation and industrial farming
degrade soils, removing them from protective vegetation and essential nutrients. In cocoa-producing regions,
deforestation upsets local water cycles and wears away the topsoil. Degraded soils hold less water,
deepening drought conditions.
Cocoa is just one crop at risk. Major agricultural zones are also affected. By 2100, up to 5 billion people
may live in dry lands, stretching food systems to their limit and forcing migration. Aridity also threatens
ecosystems. Wildlife struggles to adapt, and plant species suited to warm and damp conditions fail to
survive. Economic losses are overwhelming — Africa saw a 12% GDP decline from 1990 to 2015 due to
rising aridity. Governments face additional burdens from sandstorms, wildfires, and water shortages.
While aridity’s effects are severe, they are not entirely changeless. Restoring degraded lands, improving
soil health, and adopting sustainable farming practices can help. Efficient water management, investment in
renewable energy, and international cooperation are essential in battling aridity.
,
As chocolate prices hit record highs in early 2025 due to dry conditions in Africa addressing aridity is a
matter of urgency. Beyond saving chocolate, it’s about preserving the planet’s ability to sustain life.
28. What’s the main reason for the rising price of chocolate?
A. The decline of cocoa production. B. The high cost of basic ingredients.
C. The increasing demand for chocolate. D. The shortage of cocoa tree plantations.
29. What do we know about aridity?
A. It is mainly caused by natural factors.
英语试卷 第4页/共9页
学学科科网网（（北北京京））股股份份有有限限公公司司B. It only affects cocoa-producing regions.
C. It has a wide-ranging impact on various aspects.
D. It will disappear if sustainable land use is adopted.
30. Why is Africa’s GDP decline mentioned in paragraph 5?
A. To show aridity only causes economic losses in Africa.
B. To prove Africa is the most severely affected by aridity.
C. To criticize Africa lacks effective measures against aridity.
D. To illustrate aridity has a significant influence on economy.
31. Which of the following can fight against aridity?
A. Cutting off water supplies. B. Replacing renewable energy.
C. Promoting soil conservation. D. Practicing industrial farming.
D
There has been growing concern about “digital dementia” — the idea that excessive reliance on
smartphones and the internet harms cognitive (认知的) abilities. However, recent research suggests that for
adults over 50, these technologies may actually have the opposite effect. A comprehensive analysis of nearly
60 studies involving 410,000 older adults found that those who frequently used smartphones, computers, and
the internet were less likely to experience cognitive decline compared to those who used them less.
Jared Benge and his colleague Michael Scullin at Baylor University in Texas searched the literature for
studies involving the use of digital technologies in people over 50. The team focused on daily experience of
dealing with digital technologies, and excluded ones focusing on gaming or brain training. This left 57
studies, most of which were done in Europe or North America, but there were papers from all around the
world, says Benge. “And the effects seem to be fairly consistent.”
Three key mechanisms explain this effect, says Benge. First, digital activities are more cognitively
engaging than passive ones like watching TV. Second, digital technology facilitates social connections, for
instance, video calls. Third, digital tools like GPS navigation help older adults maintain independence for
longer, ensuring they don’t get lost even if their way-finding abilities decline, for example.
The main weakness is that the studies in the analysis relied on people self-reporting how much they
used smartphones, computers or the internet. In the future, technologies such as screen-time monitoring
could provide objective measures. Benge also points out that the people in these studies didn’t have
smartphones or internet access as children. “Does this play out for digital natives? This is a snapshot that’s
encouraging, but the story is not done being told.”
That said, while the results of the meta-analysis are inconclusive, they suggest that long-term
technology use can be beneficial for the brain and cognition, says neuroscientist Dean Burnett. “This clearly
challenges the common quick judgment that that ‘technology equals bad’ in terms of brain and mental
health.”
32. What is the main finding of the recent research?
A. Smartphone use leads to memory loss in seniors.
B. Internet browsing prevents all forms of dementia.
C. Regular tech use shows cognitive benefits for the elderly.
D. Video games are better than social media for brain health.
33. What was the main focus of the studies included in the research?
A. Social media habits in teenagers. B. Daily use of digital technologies.
C. Digital programs for brain training. D. Digital activities in western countries.
34. How might digital technology help older adults stay independent according to Benge?

C. By discouraging social interactions. D. By doing all their daily tasks automatically.
35. What is Dean Burnett’s attitude toward the research findings?
A. Dismissive. B. Uncertain. C. Supportive. D. Critical.
第二节 （共5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选
项。
We often fall into the trap of assuming rational (理性的) thought is naturally superior to intuitive (直觉
的) responses. ____36____ In truth, we should find agreement between what our heart wants and what our
reason says.
Rational thinking proves particularly valuable in certain situations. ____37____ Without it, we might
rely too heavily on emotions, leading to poor decisions. Studies confirm that people who think rationally
tend to perform better in both academic and professional settings. Moreover, it helps individuals analyze
complex problems, allow for better planning and make well-informed choices.
____38____ People who are more analytic are seen less approachable, which may make them seem
distant or unfeeling. As a result, they might struggle to build close relationships or communicate warmth in
social situations.
Intuitive thinking, though sometimes imperfect, shows impressive effectiveness in many everyday
situations. Chess masters instantly recognize strong moves, firefighters make life-saving decisions through
instinct, and artists create through sudden inspiration — none of which could be achieved through slow,
step-by-step analysis. These examples remind us that intuition is not the opposite of reason. ____39____
In our modern world of constant information, the ability to use both thinking styles becomes especially
valuable. Life is not a problem to be solved by logic alone, nor a feeling to be trusted blindly. ____40____
In the end, to live well is to think with both the precision of a scientist and the grace of an artist —
calculating when needed, but never silencing the inner voice that says, “This just feels right.”
A. This, however, only tells part of the story.
B. It allows us to weigh evidence objectively.
C. It’s just experience that becomes quick and automatic.
D. Wisest decisions sing when reason and intuition harmonize.
E. Surprisingly, logical thinking promotes emotional intelligence.
F. However, sometimes intuition can be more effective than reasoning.
G. This black-and-white view overlooks the complexity of human thought.

When I decided to join a Buy Nothing group, a thick fog of doubt hung over me. I felt increasingly 41
as I looked at the possessions crowding my shelves. But the moment I clicked “OK,” I was 42 by a
welcoming community filled with good intentions. It felt like stepping into a local neighborhood where
everyone was 43 to lend a hand. Isn’t it refreshing to know you can 44 with people who share
similar values about sustainability?
I still remember the first exchange: the vases gathering 45 in my cupboard. After 46 them,
my phone lit up with a message from a young woman whose words burst with 47 : “These are perfect
for my first apartment.” When we met, her grateful embrace lasted longer than our 48 itself. In that

helping someone start a new chapter. The pleasure of knowing my small act could have such a positive
influence was 51 .
The practice reshaped my world. With every 52 , I followed the invisible journey of objects —
how potential waste like forgotten guitars and mugs quietly transformed into others’ treasures. This economy
of sharing 53 the landfill, revealing how little we need to 54 when trust flows freely among
open hands. Perhaps true ownership begins only when we learn to let things go — their 55 leaving
space for whispered secrets between neighbors who might not have met before.

Yelena Morozova took a deep breath as she bent to tie her shoes, a simple act made painful by years of
back pain. The 52-year-old Russian teacher had nearly given up hope until she discovered 56 (remark)
relief across the border in northeast China. “It felt like 57 (unlock) my body again,” she says of the
ancient practice of needle knife treatment at Heihe TCM Hospital that helped her when modern medicine
couldn’t.
As stories like Yelena’s spread, Traditional Chinese Medicine, one of 58 earliest holistic (整体
的) medical systems in the world, is entering a new era. At Heihe’s border hospital, 59 over 600
Russian patients received treatments last year, AI now assists in checking tongue images, spotting details
even 60 (experience) practitioners might miss. Researchers are also studying old texts with AI, finding
forgotten herb (草药) mixes. “The whole-body philosophy of TCM 61 (reflect) in AI’s holistic
analysis,” explains Dr. Tong Xiaolin.
Yet challenges remain, from turning TCM’s special terms into data 62 ensuring proper AI use.
China is addressing these challenges by creating 63 (digital) trackable data systems and 20+ AI-
powered herbal production lines. Meanwhile, TCM’s global reach expands through 64 (initiative) like
Canada-Sanya treatment centers and the training of 1,300 international practitioners by 2028.
If successful, this combination of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge technology could not only enhance
TCM’s effectiveness but also strengthen its global influence. As China pioneers “smart TCM,” the world
watches in an attempt 65 (see) how tradition and innovation will shape the future of healthcare.

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。
The last lesson of the day was PE class. Mary was skipping rope on the playground, surrounded by
several classmates watching her. It was her best sport. The rope spun (旋转) quickly as she jumped. When
time was up, the counter showed 201 skips. Smiling, Mary flashed a victory sign to the crowd. Just then, the
school bell rang-class was over. Mary packed up her skipping rope. It was time to give her answer to Ms.
White.
That morning, Ms. White had asked her if she would be willing to take charge of the class bulletin
board (板报) for the upcoming competition. The student who usually handled it, Lily, was out sick, and
someone needed to step in. Mary was shocked that Ms. White had chosen her. She responded nervously,
insisting that her handwriting was terrible. But Ms. White reassured her, saying she believed in her ability
and encouraged her to think it over and let her know her decision after school.
Now, walking toward the teachers’ office, Mary felt nervous. The thought of her messy handwriting
being put up on the wall for everyone to see made her stomach turn. She had already made up her mind to
say no. With that decision in mind, she quickened her pace and ran across the sports ground.
Mary was about to pass the sandpit (沙坑) when someone nearby caught her attention. It was Tom from
a different class. In her mind, Tom had never been good at long jump, but he was practicing it. Curious, she
went over to ask what he was doing. Tom explained that no one else had signed up for the long jump event,
and without a participant, their class wouldn’t get any points in the school sports meeting. So when the
headteacher asked if anyone would give it a try, he volunteered. Mary reminded him that he wasn’t good at
it, but Tom simply said that he knew that-and that it wasn’t about being the best, but about trying and doing
his part for the class. Then he went back to practicing. What a similar issue they both faced!
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Mary stood there, watching Tom practicing patiently and hard.
