In Massachusetts, food waste is a serious issue. When thrown into landfills (垃圾
填埋场), it produces methane, a harmful greenhouse gas. To tackle this, the state has a
rule: Large food businesses must keep food waste out of the trash. Helping them follow
this rule is Heather Billings, a 63-year-old waste reduction consultant.
One cold morning, Ms. Billings visited the Port Tavern, a sports bar in
Newburyport. Abbie Hannan, the co-owner, had invited her to examine how the
restaurant dealt with its waste. In the kitchen, Ms. Billings noticed a simple but common
mistake: Food scraps (下脚料) like tomato tops were being thrown into a large trash can.
Then, at the dumpster, she checked for compostable (可用作堆肥的) items.
As a state-hired consultant, Ms. Billings took notes and gave practical suggestions.
She recommended using smaller buckets inside trash bins to collect food scraps, and she
connected the restaurant with composting services and food donation programs. “Our
biggest challenge is getting the staff to follow the rules,” Ms. Hannan said. Ms. Billings
responded by showing clear signs that could be posted in the kitchen as reminders.
The state’s regulation applies to places producing over half a ton of waste per week.
While businesses that ignore the rule can be penalized, the authorities rarely step in.
Still, many restaurants are trying. Some even donate extra food to charities, as hunger
remains a problem in many communities.
Massachusetts has made more progress than other states with similar laws.
Environmental groups hope to go further, encouraging residents to compost at home.
Meanwhile, the law has also helped new composting companies grow.
For Ms. Billings, this work is more than a job. She sees it as a way to protect the
environment. At Port Tavern, the biggest challenge was that four restaurants shared the
only one dumpster. “It’s complicated,” Ms. Hannan admitted. “Not impossible,” Ms.Billings said with a smile.
24.What does the state rule require large food businesses in Massachusetts to do?
A.Limit the amount of food waste. B.Record the daily food waste.
C.separate food waste from trash. D.Donate food scraps to charities.
25.What did Ms. Billings suggest Ms. Hannan do for her staff?
A.Post the relevant instructions. B.Provide basic training.
C.Replace trash containers. D.Make stricter rules.
26.What does the underlined word “penalized” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Revised. B.Punished. C.Inspected. D.Recognized.
27.What can be inferred about the regulation’s impact?
A.It’s rarely followed in practice.
B.It strengthens business cooperation.
C.It helps solve the public health issue.
D.It promotes environmental improvement.

Higher education in the United Kingdom is set to grow, with estimates suggesting
that one million students could apply for universities by 2030, but there are still
challenges despite this positive outlook.
A major issue is how affordable student life is, highlighted by the Higher Education
Policy Institute (HEPI). Their study across 10 UK cities found that student housing costs
now overmatch the average loan given to students, worsening financial pressures. The
HEPI Student Academic Experience Survey for 2023 paints a picture: half of students
face money problems, leading many to skip meals and give up extra-curricular activities
due to money issues. This financial stress has pushed more students into jobs, affecting
their academic performance.
The increasing cost of living is a crucial factor affecting whether students decide to
stay in education and research indicates that most students have thought about quitting
because of financial worries, which threatens their academic progress and the
university’s incomes.To tackle these issues, universities are looking to smart technology solutions,
especially artificial intelligence (AI). For example, Staffordshire University has
introduced the AI chatbot Beacon, which helps students with questions about schedules
and services. These innovations not only make administrative tasks easier but also
improve support for students and get them more involved.
Furthermore, AI can create better class schedules that suit students who work, giving
them more flexibility. It can also offer personalized advice on money management,
helping students handle budgets and balance their studies.
AI also helps universities run more smoothly. By studying data, AI can predict
which students might leave, letting schools step in early to help. This method, seen at
places like Nova Southeastern University and the University of Lincoln, offers quick
support to students in trouble and raises how many students stay in school.
Bringing AI into higher education requires careful consideration and adjustments to
fix specific issues well. It should improve the things already done, help teachers, and
make it easier to run schools while keeping students happy and performing well. As
schools deal with how hard education is today, AI and smart tech show good ways to
make all students feel included, supported, and successful in class.
28. What is current concern for university students in the UK?
A. Living expenses. B. AI’s threats.
C. Tight schedules. D. Academic pressure.
29. What can AI do to help students?
A. To monitor their work. B. To assist their homework.
C. To help them make fortunes. D. To improve their schedules.
30. How does the author judge AI used in school?
A. It is destructive. B. It is promising.
C. It makes no sense. D. It has a long way to go.
31. Which is a suitable title for the text?
A. AI Contributes to Tech Crisis B. AI Is a Double-edged Sword
C. AI Reduces Financial Stress D. AI Offers New Job Opportunities
DMicroscopic plastic pieces are everywhere, and a new study reveals they exist
in bottled water at concentrations 10 to 100 times higher than previously
estimated. Researchers from Columbia University and Rutgers University found
roughly 240,000 detectable plastic pieces in a typical liter of bottled water, with
the study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The researchers used stimulated Raman scattering microscopy and machine
learning to detect seven common plastics, testing three unnamed bottled water
brands. About 10% of these particles(微粒)are microplastics (5 millimeters to 1
micrometer), and 90% are nanoplastics(纳米塑料)( less than 1 micrometer ).
Microplastics have already been found in human lungs, blood and placentas.
“Nanoplastics could be even more dangerous than microplastics because when
inside the human body, the smaller it goes, the easier for it to be misidentified as
the natural component of the cell,” says Wei Min, a Columbia chemistry professor
and co-author on the study.
The International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) stated it had “ very
limited notice” to review the study, arguing the new detection method needs to be
fully reviewed by the scientific community and more research needs to be done
to develop standardized methods for measuring and quantifying nanoplastics in our
environment. It added there is no scientific agreement on the potential health
impacts of nano—and microplastic particles and media reports unnecessarily scare
consumers.
Phoebe Stapleton, another co-author of the study, says researchers already
know that nanoplastics are in water. “But if you can’t quantify them or create
images of them, it’s hard to believe they really exist. The importance of our
team’s research is that it now reveals this clearly — it not only provides
computer-generated images, but also lets us measure the nanoplastics. Even more
importantly, it offers chemical analysis of those measurements.” she says, adding
that the research helps people better understand how much plastic humans usually
take into their bodies and what effects it has.
32. How does the author introduce the new findings?
A.By giving examples. B. By quoting an expert.
C.By defining a concept. D. By providing statistics.
33. What could make nanoplastics a greater threat compared with microplastics?
A. Difficulty in detecting it.
B. Failure to create its image.
C. Larger quantity than microplastics.D. High concentration levels in bottled water.
34. What is IBWA’s attitude towards the study?
A. Objective. B. Approving. C. Doubtful.
D. Indifferent.
35. What is Phoebe Stapleton’s remark mainly about?
A. Uniqueness of the study. B. Significance of the study.
C. Potential application of the study. D. Possible direction for further study.

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。
Picture your dream living room. You’ re sitting on the sofa with the window open.
What do you hear? Is it the sound of a flowing river? The hum (嗡嗡声) from a nearby
café? 3 6 , and researchers say it can influence your wellbeing.
In times gone by, soundscapes would’ ve consisted of the sounds of nature, such as
birdcalls and the sound of crashing waves. 37 . With rapid urbanisation, air
travel, construction, and traffic noises are now in the mix, and agricultural noise means
that not even rural life is safe.Noise pollution can lead to heightened stress levels and a
higher risk of disease in humans. Not only that, it can affect the behaviour and life cycles
of species which rely on sound.
So, what can be done? 38 In Barcelona, Spain, city planners built
“superblocks”, where traffic goes around big groups of buildings and the inner streets
are pedestrianised(步行街). A 2025 BMC Public Health article reported that people in
these areas experienced improved well-being, better sleep quality, and reduced noise.
Other techniques include tree buffers, where trees are planted in urban areas to
absorb sound energy. 39 . England has a vast network of hedgerows (树篱).
And it turns out they make excellent sound barriers.
40 . But cutting noise pollution is just as important, helping to create a
soundscape that works for everyone. A better world isn’t just cleaner, but it should sound
better too.
A. Urban design is one trick.
B. Sadly, that’s no longer the case in the 21st century.
C. Personal mindfulness may silence the chaos outside.D. This combination of sounds is referred to as a soundscape.
E. Improving our environment often starts with reducing litter.
F. In Germany, they have created earth banks next to the airport.
G. Noise is an essential part of the soundscape in most environments.

第二节 读后续写(满分 25 分) 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之
构成一个完整的故事。
It took place in a teacher’s family. One day, Ben was playing basketball in the living
room after school, when he accidentally threw the ball at a vase sitting on the shelf. The
vase dropped to the floor, and a large piece broke off. What made Ben more upset was
that the vase was not a common decoration but an antique, which was handed downthrough generations from the 18th century. It was also his mother’s favourite possession.
To cover his terrible action, the terrified boy glued the pieces together hurriedly and put
the vase back in its place.
As the mother herself dusted the vase every day, she naturally noticed the cracks (裂
纹) that evening. To her surprise, the repair work was actually very good. At dinner time,
she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Fearing punishment, the suddenly inspired
boy said that a neighbor’s cat jumped in from the window and he couldn’t drive it away,
no matter how hard he tried. It raced around the living room and finally knocked the vase
off its shelf. His mother was quite clear that her son was lying, for all the windows were
closed before she left for work each morning and opened after she returned. However, in
the face of her son’s nervous eyes and the suspicious looks of the other family members,
Ben’s mother remained calm. She realized she shouldn’t just simply blame and punish
her son for lying. She came up with another idea.
Before going to bed, the boy found a note from his mother in his room, asking him to
go to the study at once. The boy thought he would now be punished, but, as he had
already lied, he decided to deny everything, no matter how angry his mum became.
In the study, calmly bathed in the light, his mother’s face showed no sign of anger.
On seeing her son push open the door and cautiously enter, she took a chocolate box out
of a drawer and gave him one.
