As the first-ever Chinese captain to compete in the Vendee Globe, known as one of the world's
toughest endurance challenges, Olonne on Sunday in the 10th edition of the legendary solo, non-
stop, around-the-world yacht race.
Born in Pingdu, north China's Shandong Province, Xu encountered two life-changing events at
the age of12 — seeing the sea for the first time and losing his lower left arm due to a fireworks accident.
“Losing my arm taught me perseverance, and from then on, I wanted to push my own limits.
Discovering the sea opened a new path for me,” Xu said.
Always athletic, he first excelled in track and field before discovering a lifelong passion for
sailing. His talent and determination led him to represent China in sailing at the 2008 Beijing
Paralympics. “Sailing isn't just about competing; it's about constantly learning and exploring the sea,”
he explained.
Over time, Xu gained recognition both in Route du Rhum transatlantic solo race and went on to
complete China's first double-hulled circumnavigation. Now, his participation in the Vendee Globe
marks a historic milestone as he becomes the first Chinese sailor to compete in a field traditionally
dominated by European captains.
“Being the first Chinese sailor here is more than a personal achievement. It's about inspiring others to
see beyond obstacles and to explore what's possible,” Xu said. Asked about his goal in this year's
race, Xu emphasized the importance I' ll aim to place in the middle of the pack,” he stated
confidently.
24. Why did Xu Jingkun pursue a career in sailing?
A. He wanted to use his athletic background.
B. He hoped to win the Vendee Globe race.
C. He aimed to compete with excellent European sailors.

A recent study examined how online images strengthen gender bias (偏见), even when written
descriptions are more balanced. Researchers, led by Douglas Guilbeault, explored how gender bias
is conveyed in images versus text and its impact on users. (like doctor or nurse) or social roles (like
neighbor or friend).
The study analyzed nearly 350,000 Google Images showing men and women in various jobs and
roles, then compared these to billions of words from in text. Both images and text showed biased
associations, with women more often described in liberal arts roles and men in science and technology.
However, the imbalance was“statistically more extreme” in images. For example, all images of
software developers were male, while text descriptions included women. Compared to real-world
workforce data, images overrepresented men, while text more often overrepresented women.
Researchers had volunteers search for 22 occupation. The study found that viewing images rather
than text intensified participants’ gender biases, which persisted for days afterward.
A potential explanation is the complex algorithms (算法) that run search engines like Google
Images.“Consistently, we find that the algorithm appears to be privileging male content.” The site may
be holding a mirror to users’ attitude. “Google is just a system,” he says, “reflecting what’ s going
on in other areas of the internet.” Also, images affect us differently than text. Images are particularly
sticky in our mind , known as the picture-superiority effect , and more easily processed ,
remembered, and emotionally stirring than text.
As society shifts toward visual communication, Guilbeault warns that images, being a potent
vehicle for stereotypes (刻板印象), may deepen biases unless new cultural rules intervene.
28. What did the researchers discover in the study?
A. The jobs taken by men and women were imbalanced.
B, Images showed a more extreme bias than text.
C. Men were doing a better job than women in images.
D. Gender bias in text had a greater influence on readers.
29. How did the researchers study the gender bias of online images?
学科网(北京)股份有限公司A. By examining a specific case of gender discrimination online.
B. By interviewing people about their views of gender in professions.
C. By experimenting on participants' reactions to different professions.
D. By analyzing the gender associations in online images and text data.
30. What can be inferred from Guilbeault's words?
A. Images contain more detailed information than text.
B. The result reflects people's biases in real life.
C. The engineers writing the algorithms are biased.
D. People prefer images to written descriptions.
31. What is the author's possible purpose in writing the text?
A. To help realize how online images deepen gender bias.
B. To analyze the effects of gender stereotypes in modern society.
C. To propose solutions for discrimination in search engine algorithms.
D. To prove Google Images' gender inequality.
D
A substance found in a fungus (真菌) that commonly disables and kills insects has been shown to
block pathways critical for the growth of some cancers. Building on previous research, researchers
from the University of Nottingham in the UK looked into the cancer-fighting abilities of cordycepin, a
chemical produced by parasitic Cordyceps and Ophiocordyceps species (冬虫夏草真菌) to assist their
infection of a living host's body, often affecting the insect's behavior before killing them.
Advances in scientific techniques enabled cell signaling pathways, and protein production across
a vast number of cells in order to figure out what cordycepin is doing. “It has become easier and less
expensive to do these very large experiments, so we were able to examine thousands of genes at the
same time,” says RNA biologist Cornelia de Moor.
Through lab experiments on human tissue cultures and a genetic analysis of how cordycepin worked
on these cells, the team found the chemical was transformed into a more active substance called
cordycepin triphosphate, which is responsible for slowing down cell activity.
The researchers found pathways often controlled by cancer cells to assist their spread throughout
the human body. Although it's not clear yet which molecules ( 分 子 ) cordycepin triphosphate is
targeting, the team did find that the chemical appeared to be working quickly.
Further research is required to turn the findings into new cancer treatments, yet understanding
how the molecule affects cell growth could set the foundations for new types of cancer drugs.
Importantly, the precision with which cordycepin triphosphate operates means that it could overcome
the challenge faced by many current treatments: trying to take our cancer cells without causing too much
学科网(北京)股份有限公司damage to healthy tissue.
32. What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 most likely mean?
A. dependent B. protective
C. beneficial D. weak
33. Which of the following best summarizes the role of cordycepin?
A. It produces protein in a cheap and effective way.
B. It enhances the signaling pathways for cancer cells.
C. It directly works on cancer cells to slow down their activities.
D. It turns into a substance that blocks signaling pathways.
34. What may researchers focus on in the future?
A. Identifying the precise targeted molecules.
B. Finding cheaper ways to produce cordycepin.
C. Testing cordycepin triphosphate on insects.
D. Studying how cancer cells damage healthy tissues.
35. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. A fungus's substance was discovered to influence insects' behavior.
B. Researchers are using new technology to study gene expression.
C. A substance from a fungus shows potential for cancer treatment.
D. Scientists are developing a new drug that cures cancer with no side effects.

Worrying is just a familiar emotion that a person gets when he starts to get concerned about the
outcome of something that he cares about. 36 It's all about the triggers (诱因).
Once a person comes across a trigger that reminds him of something he cares about, he might
start worrying about that thing. Fears then fuel the person's thoughts and so he starts imaging possible
negative situations. 37 When a person gives in to the first negative thought, a series of issues
emerge. He starts looking for more evidence to calm himself down. When that happens the person
becomes more likely to come across a new trigger that leads to more worrying. 38 In other words there
might be no way to find a piece of data that calms the person down during that specific phase of his life.
39 As you might have already guessed, not giving in to the first negative thought is one of the
best strategies to deal with worrying. By pushing that negative thought away as soon as it appears you
can give yourself the chance not to fall into this worrying trap.
But it's important to note that worrying can also be useful if it motivates you to take action to change
things or to find real data that can help you. 40 But if you already took the exam and you are now
学科网(北京)股份有限公司worried worrying in such a case is a total waste of time and that it might just lead to more worrying.
So as soon as you make sure you really can't change anything at the moment, just push the first
negative thought away gently and remind yourself that worrying will just open the door to more negative
thinking.
A. More worrying means more time wasted.
B. This is where the downward cycle often begins.
C. But what we may not know is its negative effects.
D. But do you know how the worrying process starts?
E. However, there are still ways to break free from this cycle.
F. You may study harder if worried about, for example, an upcoming exam.
G. The biggest problem here is that things people worry about are usually uncertain.

Ben, a person who enjoys exploring mountains, decided to try a new and unfamiliar path one
weekend. He was excited as he set off, the sun shining brightly overhead and the gentle breeze rustling
the leaves. As he walked deeper into the forest, the path became narrower and more winding. The trees
on both sides grew taller and denser, casting cool shadows. He could hear the chirping of birds and the
soft babbling of a nearby stream. The air was fresh and filled with the natural fragrances of the forest,
like the smell of pine needles and damp earth.
Abruptly, a strange sound broke the silence of the surroundings. His heart skipped a beat as he
scanned in all directions. When his eyes landed on a small, furry creature, his first thought was that
it was a skinny dog that must have been lost for several days. “Poor little thing,” he murmured to
himself, a hint of concern replacing his initial startle. He started to approach it with a friendly smile,
his steps. slow and cautious so as not to frighten it.
Just as he was about to get closer, a sharp“awooo” echoed through the forest. It was a sound
unmistakably belonging to a wolf, tiny as it looked! Ben immediately froze in his tracks. As he looked
more closely at the creature,smile vanishing. His breath quickened. The somewhat wild look of the little
wolf and its growls, which were not overly deep but still frightening enough, made his heart beat a
bit faster. His muscles tensed up a little as he paused in his tracks, his mind filled with a touch of
unease. With a slightly trembling hand, he reached towards his walking stick on the ground ,
preparing himself for what might be an attack.
