With a sensible budget, you can avoid financial stress. If you like a pen and paper approach, you can
try a simple tracking sheet like Balance Pro or a more comprehensive budget worksheet like Harvard
Assistant. If you prefer a phone app, there are many to choose from and most are free.
Credit

Saving and Investing
As a student, this topic may not yet be on your radar, but saving is a key concept for financial well-
being. Compound interest is the principle that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar in the future,
because it can earn interest up. The longer the time frame for investment, the more you can increase the
income. Discover the amount of earnings you could get over a period of time with SEC compound

From Beijing, more than 400 kilometers away, all the way up north, the temperature gradually
drops. With the emergence of fire prevention warnings, Saihanba (塞罕坝), known as a “miracle on
earth”, begins to come into view. In October, the cold wind blowing from Siberia has dyed ( 染色)
Saihanba golden.
In Mongolian, Saihanba means beautiful high mountains. However, Saihanba was a desert of
“yellow sand covering the sky and flying birds without inhabiting trees” 62 years ago. Whenever the
north wind blows, the windy sand located in Inner Mongolia will drive southward, reaching Beijing and
Tianjin.
After more than half a century of forest plantation, people who have come to Saihanba can hardly
imagine the arid (干旱) scene. Occasionally, a gust of wind passes by, and they would just sigh and shout
how strong the wind is, but they would not feel sandblasted (喷砂).
On Oct 9, watchmen Liu Jun and Wang Juan were observing the surrounding forest area on a
watchtower in Saihanba Forest Farm in Hebei province. Liu is in charge of the observation and Wang
keeps recording.
“Spring and autumn are the critical fire prevention periods for our forest farm. We need to stay here
for three months, have three meals a day, work and live in the building,” says Liu Jun, who has been
engaged in observation for 13 years. Simple as it looks, the job is quite the burden on their shoulders.
Only by enjoying loneliness can they keep this forest safe and sound.
Saihanba today is not only a “green Great Wall” for windbreak and sand fixation (固化), but also a
timber (林木) source. Many people would doubt why the trees that have grown up here are to be cut
down in a planned way. Liu explains that most of the trees here are planted forest, and the forest species
are relatively single, unlike natural forests that can adapt on their own and survive the fittest. The
selective cutting of plantation forests is more like thinning when farmers plant crops. Only in this way
can the nutrient area be expanded and diseased plants also be removed to ensure the healthy development
of the forest areas.
24. What can be learned about Saihanba from the first three paragraphs?
A. It is suffering from a cold wind. B. It is weathering a sandstorm.
C. Its desertification is under control. D. Its climate is beyond expectation.

A. Bored but attentive. B. Lonely but committed.
C. Tired but engaged. D. Simple but responsible.
26. Why are some trees in Saihanba cut down?
A. To prevent potential fire. B. To study its disease prevention.
C. To promote its biodiversity. D. To ensure its healthy development.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Green Guardian B. The Sand Wasteland
C. The Timber Farm D. The Golden Miracle

In the vast digital landscape, Google stands as a towering giant of innovation and creativity. Among
its many offerings, one stands out for its ability to charm, educate, and celebrate the diversity of human
culture—the Google Doodle (涂鸦). This artistic project, which has evolved from simple still images to
animated pictures, interactive games, and short videos, has turned the usual act of searching the internet
into an enjoyable journey through history, culture, and, importantly, the English language.
The idea of Google Doodle began in the late 1990s, when the company’s founders, Larry Page and
Sergey Brin, wanted to add a touch of fun and personality to their search engine. The first Google
Doodle, created in 1998 to mark the Burning Man Festival, was the start of a tradition that has since
become known for its creativity, diversity and user engagement.
Each Google Doodle is a masterpiece, designed and published by any doodler online to bring out
the certain theme every year. From paying respect to literary greats like Mark Twain and Dickens to
marking key moments in worldwide history, such as the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Google Doodles show
the global influence of English and colorful cultural roots.
One of the most amazing things about Google Doodle is its ability to mix the English language with
artistic expression. Many Doodles include clever wordplay, literary quotes, and historical references,
encouraging users to explore the events and celebrities more deeply. For example, a Doodle celebrating
the life and works of William Shakespeare might show famous quotes from his plays, inviting users to
dive into the rich world of Elizabethan literature.
In conclusion, Google Doodle is more than just a visual delight. Through its charming designs, and
interactive features, it invites us to explore, appreciate, and celebrate the diverse traditions that have
shaped our shared human heritage. It serves as a bridge connecting the digital world with human
emotions and memories, making every search a potential discovery of beauty and meaning.
28. What can you do on Google Doodle?
A. Learn how to doodle. B. Enjoy short videos.
C. Study the English language. D. Celebrate all festivals.
29. Why did Larry Page and Sergey Brin create Google Doodle?

30. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. One key technique of Google Doodle. B. One common subject of Google Doodle.
C. One amazing capability of Google Doodle. D. One artistic representative of Google Doodle.

Virtually all living things have some way of getting from here to there. Animals may walk, swim, or
fly. Plants and their seeds drift (飘) on wind or water or are carried by animals. Therefore, it is
reasonable to expect that, in time, all species might spread to every place on Earth where favorable
conditions occur. Indeed, there are some cosmopolitan species. A good example is the housefly, found
almost everywhere on Earth. However, such broad distribution (分布) is the rare exception. Just as wire
fences prevent cattle from leaving their grassland, biological barriers prevent the spread of many species.
What forms barriers depends on the species and its method of spread. Some are physical barriers,
like waters or mountains for the land animals, and strong currents for aquatic (水生) creatures. Some
barriers involve competition with other species. Most places that are suitable for the growth of a
newcomer, say a dandelion seedling (蒲公英幼苗), are already occupied by other types of plants that are
well adapted to the area. Facing such fierce competition, the chances of survival for the immigrant are
slim.
There are also some types of natural pathways through which organisms can overcome barriers. One
type is called a corridor. It consists of a single type of habitat that passes through various other types of
habitat. North America’s Rocky Mountains is an example. Various types of trees, such as the Engelmann
spruce, can be found not only at the northern end of the corridor in Alaska but also at higher altitude
along the entire length of this corridor.
Another type of natural pathway is known as a filter route. It consists of a series of habitats that are
different from one another but are similar enough to permit organisms to gradually adapt to new
conditions as they spread from habitat to habitat. The greatest difference between a corridor and a filter
route is that a corridor consists of one type of habitat, while a filter consists of several similar types.
32. What does the underlined word “cosmopolitan” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.ordinary. B. worldwide. C. famous. D. ancient.
33. How does the author explain biological barriers in paragraph 1?
A. By providing examples of them.
B. By describing the forming process of them.
C. By comparing them with a familiar man-made barrier.
D. By explaining how houseflies have been affected by them.
34. What limits the chances of survival for dandelion seedlings?
A. The danger of strong winds. B. The lack of a suitable habitat.
C. Inadaptation to the new areas. D. Competition with native species.
35. What is the essential difference between a corridor and a filter route?
A. The number of habitat categories. B. The speed to adapt to new conditions.

项。
These days, it’s not unusual to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities
that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.
36 One is about adults’ nostalgia (怀旧之情) for the carefree days of childhood, and this is
especially true with today’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent
decades where people are starting families later. 37 Some adults could only window-shop for
their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced
doll they have always wanted.
Businesses have been quick to exploit (利用) the kidult trend, and the number of toy stores that
target adults has risen. Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new
ones for adults. 38
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests, 39 1
Those who agree with this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology
concept known as Peter Pan Syndrome, an anomaly (异常) that people remain emotionally at the level of
teenagers.
From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun.
Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative. 40 The real
causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work
opportunities.
Whether the kidult phenomenon will continue to grow or prove to be a passing trend is anyone’s
guess. As the debate about it continues, remember that there is nothing wrong with being young at heart.
A. What lies behind the phenomenon?
B. There are two types of this social trend.
C. viewing the refusal as social immaturity and irresponsibility.
D. As a result, they have more time and money to spend on themselves.
E. and their refusal to follow society’s acceptable tastes shows independent thinking.
F. Besides, they argue that being part of this social trend is not purely a personal choice.
G. Lego, for example, has brought out an architectural series featuring worldwide landmarks.

what’s been 41 in the pages.

I run a photography studio in the heart of the city, specializing in children’s portraits. From high-end
modeling shoots to heartwarming sibling photos and lovely birth announcements, we cover it all. Our
studio is always busy, and as is stated on our website, we don’t accept walk-ins. With bookings scheduled
six months in advance, it’s non-stop. One evening, just ten minutes before closing, a mother walked in
with a young girl, around six or seven years old, following her. I felt quite annoyed — I really needed to
close up.
The mother said, “Hello. I know you’re closing soon, but I have a special favor to ask.” At that
moment, the little girl peeked out from behind her mother’s legs, her eyes scanning nervously around the
room. She glanced at the beautiful portraits of healthy, smiling children hanging on the walls, and the
expression on her face was a mix of longing and self-consciousness. She seemed to know she didn’t look
like the other kids in the photos. Under her thick winter coat and hat, she looked weak, with dark circles
under her eyes. She had no hair, and a tube was taped to her cheek, feeding into her nose. It was clear she
was very ill.
The mother continued, her voice shaking, “My daughter saw one of your photos at the hospital. She
used to be such a beautiful and lovely girl as those in your photos hanging on the walls, but she doesn’t
look her best right now... Sir, I know you’re booked up, and the next appointment is months away, but I
don’t know...” She started to cry. I realized that waiting for months was not a bet for this little girl. Seeing
she held her mother’s hand tightly, I felt my heart soften.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150个左右；

I took a deep breath and smiled gently at the little girl, making up my mind to do something._______
