Invented in the Tang Dynasty and widely adopted after the Song Dynasty in Fujian, the watertight-bulkhead
(水密舱壁) technology permits the construction of ocean-going ships with watertight compartments (隔层). If one
or two cabins are accidentally damaged at sea, water will not flood the other cabins and the ships will remain afloat.
The experience and working methods of watertight-bulkhead technology are transmitted orally from master
to apprentices. However, the need for Chinese junks (中国式帆船) has decreased sharply as wooden ships have
been replaced by steel-hulled ships, and today only three masters can claim full command of this technology.
Associated building costs have also increased owing to a shortage in raw materials. Therefore, the inheritance (继
承) of this heritage is decreasing, and inheritors are forced to seek alternative employment.
Zhang Guohui, a 77-year-old inheritor of the watertight-bulkhead techniques used to make Chinese junks,
has been making ships for more than six decades. Coming from a poor family in a fishing town in East China’s
Fujian Province, Zhang started to make a living at the age of 16 fishing on the open seas, which is where he
developed a keen interest in constructing boats. As a fast learner, Zhang was later sent to shipyards in the cities of
Quanzhou and Xiamen in Fujian Province, where he received training and became a master of traditional Chinese
junks and gained fame because of his extremely skilled craftsmanship in the construction of these junks.
In fear that the traditional skills would die someday, Zhang started to restore old ships and make model junks
for the museum with his 20 years of shipbuilding skills. “The restored ancient ships are the historical witnesses of
Quanzhou as a maritime center of the East and Southeast Asia trade network,” said Zhang, adding that he finds the
work meaningful since younger generations can learn from exhibitions of ancient ships that their ancestors had
advanced shipbuilding technology at an early stage of development. “As long as I’m alive, I’ll keep passing on the
heritage,” he said.
24．What function is expected of the watertight-bulkhead technology?
A．To prevent ships from sinking. B．To reduce the weight of ships.
C．To allow ships to sail faster. D．To help ships resist strong winds.
25．Which of the following is the purpose of paragraph 2?
A．To prove the significance of steel-hulled ships.”B．To stress the complex process of building wooden ships.
C．To present people’s efforts to pass down cultural heritages.
D．To show difficulties of inheriting watertight-bulkhead technology.
26．What can we learn about Zhang Guohui from paragraph 3?
A．He supports his family by fishing.
B．He was born with a talent for shipbuilding.
C．He has devoted himself to constructing boats.
D．He has won many awards for restoring ancient ships.
27．What does Zhang Guohui convey in his words?
A．Traditional culture should be innovated with the times.
B．The ancient ship trade originated from Quanzhou in China.
C．It is necessary for modern students to learn shipbuilding skills.
D．It is worth passing on traditional skills from generation to generation.
Few marsupials (有袋哺乳动物) have gone from miraculous survival to the edge of extinction as quickly as
the Kangaroo Island dunnart (狭足袋鼩).
In 2019 and 2020, devastating fires burned nearly 10 million hectares of southeastern Australia. The flames
threatened hundreds of species with extinction, but the Kangaroo Island dunnart — which already numbered less
than 500 before the fires — seemed to be one that was beyond expectation in the aftermath. But now these rare
creatures may be more at risk than ever, researchers say June 16 in Scientific Reports. The danger, as domestic as it
sounds, is getting eaten by a cat.
As of 2008, invasive wildcats had contributed to at least 13 percent of extinctions worldwide. That’s one
reason why the government has been euthanizing (安乐死) wildcats on Kangaroo Island for years. The scientists
who conducted the dunnart study knew all this — but when they studied the remains of wildcats euthanized in
2020, they were still surprised by what they saw: Seven out of 86 wildcats had recently dined on dunnart.
“We were not expecting to find so many,” says Louis Lignereux, a field researcher at the University of
Adelaide School of Animal and Veterinary Science. “It’s particularly bad news, ”he says, “if you think of what was
in the wildcats as only a brief description of what they ate in the last 36 hours.” Taking that into account, those
seven wildcats alone could have eaten enough to wipe out the Kangaroo Island dunnart within a few months, if they
had survived—and there are hundreds of other wildcats on the island.
A small habitat makes the dunnarts especially vulnerable. It’s like putting all your eggs in one basket,Lignereux says. Since the fires, the Kangaroo Island dunnart is thought to now live in an area about one-tenth of the
size of Manhattan. “If something happened to this spot,” he says, “then the dunnart is gone forever.”
28．What can we infer about the Kangaroo Island dunnarts from the text?
A．Their small habitat has rich species. B．They and wildcats killed each other.
C．The wildcats led to the extinction of them. D．They were hardly influenced by the big fire.
29．How did the researchers find the real cause of the sharp reduction of dunnarts?
A．By analyzing their habitat. B．By consulting the experts.
C．By referring to precious data. D．By studying the remains of dead wildcats.
30．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “vulnerable” in the last paragraph?
A．hard to be fed B．sensitive to the environment C．at riskD．easy to survive
31．Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A．Why do dunnarts possibly face extinction? B．Why do wildcats dine on the dunnarts?
C．What environment do dunnarts favor? D．What measures should be taken to kill wildcats?
A team of AI researchers at Microsoft, working with colleagues from the Pacific Northwest National
Laboratory(PNNL), has used AI to develop a battery that uses less lithium (锂).
Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are
expected to play a major role in the change to green power. But lithium is expensive, which has led multiple teams
across the globe to look for alternatives. In this new effort, the research team looked for ways to reduce the amount
of lithium used in batteries.
This would normally take a long time because of the detailed approach required. To reduce the workload and
the time needed to process millions of alternatives, the researchers turned to AI. Noting that AI applications are
good at using massive amounts of data to learn how to do things, the researchers designed one that could study
millions of materials that might be added to a lithium battery to replace some amount of the lithium and test the
results for factors such as stability and how a battery using a given material would behave.
Using this approach, the research team reduced the list of possible alternatives to just a few hundred
possibilities. They then turned to materials scientists at PNNL for advice on how to reduce the possibilities even
further. The scientists suggested adding more specific screening criteria and more testing rounds. After adopting
that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half
of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms.
After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement. They plan to continue working on
the approach and the process they used to find their solution, which they suggest could eventually solve other types
of material processing problems.
32．Why did the research team want to develop a battery that uses less lithium?
A．To reduce carbon emissions. B．To meet the industry standard.
C．To decrease the cost of a battery. D．To generate electricity efficiently.
33．What do the underlined words “this approach” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A．Using AI to find possible materials. B．Adding other materials to a battery.
C．Developing an application to collect data. D．Replacing lithium in a battery with sodium.
34．How did the research team finally find a promising alternative?
A．By seeking funding from PNNL. B．By asking experts for advice.
C．By turning to Microsoft for help. D．By cooperating with other scientists.
35．What is the existing challenge with the new approach?
A．It is less effective than expected. B．It costs too much time and money.
C．It occupies too much room. D．It processes at a lower speed.
Picture this: You’ve just arrived home from the grocery store and realized that you forgot to buy the main
food you needed for dinner. You may feel upset and tired. And then, the voice in your head begins its comments:
“It’s really stupid of me.” Or “Why am I always so careless?” 36
We’ve all been there — experiencing the inner dialogue that follows a mistake or a setback. 37
Negative self-talk is a normal part of being human. But if left unchecked, it can affect our mental health. This is
why learning to examine and transform our inner voice is so crucial. Our inner voice is constantly broadcasting our
thoughts, whether they’ re positive or negative. 38 In contrast, negative self-talk exposes us to self-
doubts and fears. This can eventually harm our mental health, relationships, and confidence.
39 Research shows that people who engage in this kind of behavior often experience lower self-
confidence, higher anxiety levels, and a reduced sense of overall well-being. In addition, self-criticism has been
associated with higher stress levels and an increased risk of mental health issues, such as depression.
The good news is that we can change our self-talk. The first step is becoming aware of the role our inner
voice plays. Once we recognize its impact, we can use simple techniques to shift how we talk to ourselves. 40
Besides, using your name instead of “I” during inner dialogue can also create a more supportive, less critical voice.
A．A lot of strategies are needed.B．Practicing constructive self-talk can be helpful.
C．In fact, negative self-talk can take many forms.
D．Positive self-talk can inspire and boost our confidence.
E．At last, you may head back to the store with a heavy heart.
F．The link between negative self-talk and mental health is well-established.
G．This dialogue is the voice that criticizes us when things don’t go as planned.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A recent study has found that a region in the Turpan-Hami Basin of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region
served 56 a shelter for plants and animals during a major extinction event 252 million years ago. The
research conducted by scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences 57 (publish) in Science
Advances.
At the end of the Permian Period (二叠纪), a terrible extinction wiped out over 80% of species on earth,
58 scientists have long believed was caused by volcanic eruptions in Siberia that led to widespread 59
(harm) gases, wildfires, and acid rain. However, this new study challenges the idea by providing the first clear
evidence 60 a stable land ecosystem persisted through the disaster.
By examining plant fossils (化石) there, researchers found that only about 21% of local plant species
disappeared — a much lower rate 61 (compare) with that in the ocean. The study also uncovered a
continuous 62 (present) of thick plants before and after the extinction event. This stable plant life
supported a rapid recovery of varied animals, allowing them to thrive (蓬勃发展) within just 75, 000 years, much
faster than 63 (previous) thought.
Scientists believe this ability to recover was due to the region’s stable climate, with good rainfall 64
(create) a livable environment. This discovery 65 (highlight) how local conditions can protect
ecosystems even in times of global disaster, offering lessons for modern conservation efforts.

六、书面表达
67．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。
Oliver, a bright twelve-year-old with curly brown hair, lived in the lively town of Willow Creek. Every day
after school, he would rush home to his favorite spot — a strong oak tree with a swing in the backyard to read. But
today was different. He had a secret that made his heart race, but not in the good way.
At school, during art class, Oliver accidentally spilled (泼洒) red paint on his friend Mia’s drawing. In panic,
he lied, saying the paintbrush slipped. Deep down, he knew he had been careless, and the lie weighed heavily on
him. Mia had been so excited about her drawing for the coming school art show. He worried he had ruined it.
With a sigh, Oliver decided to take a walk to clear his mind. He wandered down the familiar path to Willow
Creek Park. There, he saw Mr. Johnson, a retired headmaster. He had a kind smile that made Oliver feel at ease.
“Hello, Oliver,” Mr. Johnson called, waving him over. “What brings you here on this fine day?”
Oliver hesitated for a moment but then decided to share his burden. “I told a lie today,” he admitted
everything to Mr. Johnson.
“Honesty builds trust,” Mr. Johnson advised gently, “while lies create walls between friends.”
Oliver listened attentively, worrying that truth might hurt Mia. “Sometimes the truth may hurt, but it also
solves the problem and makes things better,” Mr. Johnson added thoughtfully. “If you’re honest with Mia, you can
work together to fix the drawing. Remember, friendship grows strong with trust.”
Oliver nodded, feeling a spark of hope. Maybe telling the truth wouldn’t be as scary as he thought.
The next day at school, the air was filled with excitement as the art show drew closer. Colorful bannersdecorated the halls, and students hurried to set up their displays.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

【原文】Today, I want to talk about the nearest single star to our Sun. Barnard’s Star is about six light years away
from Earth. Believed to be between seven and twelve billion years of age, Barnard’s Star is much older than the
Sun, which has been around for four and a half billion years. It’s also a lot cooler and smaller. In fact, Barnard’s
Star is only 19 percent of the Sun’s mass.
As it isn’t very bright, it isn’t easy for scientists to see Barnard’s Star. There have been many theories about planets
over the years, but nothing has been proven. A scientific team in South Africa reported evidence of a planet circling
around Barnard’s Star. Another team confirmed this using the latest technology.
Why is this important? I wanted to show you that our knowledge of the universe is only so much! We are
discovering more and more every day! With that in mind, please turn to page 20 in your textbook…

66．Dear Peter,
How are you doing? I can’t wait to share with you my amazing experience with my family during the
National Day holiday, where AI brought so much convenience to travel.
For example, when buying tickets for scenic spots, I used mobile payment directly, which saved me from the
trouble of carrying cash or waiting in long lines. Also, face recognition technology allowed us to enter attractions
quickly, saving us a lot of time and trouble. It was super efficient!
These AI applications made my trip much smoother and more enjoyable. I really felt how technology is
changing our lives for the better, making travel easier and more fun. I sincerely invite you to come to China and
experience this convenient travel with AI by yourself. I’m sure you’ll love it! Looking forward to your reply.（135）
Yours,

Dear Peter,
How are you doing? Just as planned, my family went on a week-long tour during the National Day holiday.
Here I’d like to share with you what we experienced.
When traveling, we were amazed at the changes and convenience brought by AI. First of all, wherever and
whenever we went, we could use the mobile payment, including buying admission tickets. More interestingly, we
no longer had to get into tourist attractions with the ID card. We could do it through a face recognition app now,
which really saved time so that we didn’t have to wait in a queue. What an amazing experience
I do hope you can come to China and experience all of this when you have spare time. Looking forward to
your arrival.（123）
Yours,
Li Hua
67．Paragraph 1:
Oliver approached Mia, who was carefully improving her painting. Oliver took a deep breath and admitted
his lie about the paint spill. For a moment, Mia’s expression was readable, making Oliver’s stomach twist with
anxiety. But then her face softened, and she simply nodded, accepting his apology. “Let’s fix it together,” Mia
grinned. With a shared look of determination, they got to work. Transforming the red spots into blooming flowers,
they added green leaves and a vivid blue sky. Their silent teamwork was efficient, turning the ruined drawing into a
vibrant garden scene.
Paragraph 2:
