They now call it “Batesian mimicry” — the amazing skill for survival I first saw in the
whispering green oftheAmazon. I am Henry Walter Bates. My story began not with butterflies,
but as the eldest son ofa stocking (长袜) maker in Leicester. Yet, a boy’s passion for collecting
insects and an important meeting withAlfredRusselWallace,Darwin’sfutureco-theorist,sentme
toward what he called “thegreat engineofchange”in the tropics.
英语试卷A 第2 页（共 11页）For eleven years, the Amazon was my home, my school, and my proving ground. I faced
constantdangers,fromdisease-carryingmosquitoesandsnakestofloodingrains.Iwasstruckdown
byboth yellow fever and malaria. My routine was strict mornings collecting, afternoons reading
and preparing my finds. I was usually in bed by nine. My field journals, filled with detailed
drawings and notes in dark ink,were my defense against the dampness and insects. I learned the
local languages and customs, for without the crucial guidance ofits people, I would have been
completely lostin that vast wilderness.
It was a time of extraordinary variety. I brought back over 14,000 kinds ofinsects — 8,000
new to science. But the real wonder was not the count, but a pattern I noticed. It started with a
puzzle: why could slow-flying butterflies likethe Heliconiusescapebirds?LaterIdiscoveredthey
were poisonous and bitter-tasting. Then the deeper truth emerged: harmless Dismorphia had
evolved to copy the bright warning colours of the Heliconius. These mimics, avoided by their
natural enemies, survived to pass ontheircolours.Herewasevolutionbynaturalselection,written
plainly onbutterfly wings.
Ipublishedmypaperin 1862,threeyears after Darwin’s On the Origin of Species. That this
“mimicry”, discovered in remote jungles, could offer timely field support for his great theory
remains my proudest achievement. They say I “wrotethe book” on field study. I simply followed
my fascination, one find at a time, from myfather’s Leicester workshop into the heart ofnature’s
grandest design.
24．WhowasHenryWalterBates?
A.A stockingmaker from Leicester. B.Darwin’sco-theoriston evolution.

B. Slow-flyingbutterfliesescapedbirds’attack.
C. The bright colours ofbutterflies signalled danger.
D. Harmless species copied thelook ofpoisonous ones.

英语试卷A 第3 页（共 11页）C
Survey data shows that most freshmen regularly use generative AI, often treating it as “an
intellectual partner”, Professor John Hampson reported at a faculty (全体教师) meeting in Elite
Technology University (ETU). Students most commonly use it to understand difficult concepts,
search, generate study materials, and edit writing. Interestingly, the lowest reported use is for
generatingtext.
Meanwhile, students are usingfaculty office hours andthe speaking and writing centers less.
Inlastyear’scomputersciencecourses, scoresonproblemsetsincreased, yet examscoresdeclined
“This is concerning,”noted Hampson. “IftheywereusingAI as astudypal,theyweren’tabsorbing
as much as they might think.”
Students want clearer AI policies, and Hampson advised faculty to carefully consider and
sharewhatlevelofusethey permit, thereasoning behind it, howto citeuse ofAI, and examplesof
what’s permissible. Healso encouraged department-widediscussions to best preparestudents fora
workplace where they will need to know how to write or code with its assistance. “I also believe
thatstudentsneedtolearntowriteandcodeunaided,todevelopcriticalthinkingskills,theiragency
as citizens, and also meaning —making the ideas that help them understand their own lives,” he
added.
Someprofessors expressed concerns about howAIuse is impacting students’mental health
and learning. Professor George Wilsonnotedthat students are often highly competitive, and “it’s
important to create rules so that competition leads to healthy behaviors that make them better
educated people.” While some suggested more one-on-one time with students, others noted that
budget restrictions would makethat difficult.
Professor Poly Burnett observed that lecture attendance is also down. She urged faculty to
make lectures somethingstudents genuinely want toattend. She alsonoted that manyteachers are
making small changes, in hopes ofcontinuing teaching as they’ve previously taught. “We actually
havetoseethislessas aproblemandmore as an opportunity,” Burnett suggested. “How can ETU
leadinrethinkinghowweteach,howwelearn …andhaveourstudentsbebenefitingandbeingat
the leading edge ofthat?”
28．Whatdoestheauthorimplyaboutthesurveyfindingsbyusing“interestingly”inparagraph 1?
A. They indicate apromisingtrend. B. They contradicta common assumption.
C. They capture thefaculty’s interest. D. Theyrequirefurtherinvestigation.

A. Studentsare interactingmorewithothers.
B.Al use has led to better learning outcomes.
C. Examscores rose whilehomeworkscores fell.
D. Students are usingoff-lineacademicservicesless.
30．Whydoes Hampson emphasizestudentswritingandcodingwithoutAI?
A. Toclarify acceptableuses ofAI incoursework.
B. To prepare studentsforfutureworkplacedemands.

Sound travels as vibrations (振动) through the air. Conventional microphones function by
picking up these vibrations. Scientists wondered ifthey could make microphones that see those
vibrations rather than hear them. Now researchers inChinahave builtsuch a device.
Led byphysicist Yao Xuri from Beijing Institute ofTechnology, the team has built a device
that photographs the tiny, imperceptible vibrations that sound waves generate on objects.
According to Yao, “This technique enables sound detection using everyday items under natural
lighting.”
Thisishardlythefirstattempttomakeamicrophonethatworkswithlight.AlexanderGraham
Bellbuiltonebackin 1880.Hecalleditaphotophone.It operatedbyusingsoundwavestodeform
a mirror, causing reflected light to flash along with the sound. These flashes were then changed
back into sound. Modern attempts have been trying to copy this, using high-speed cameras or
preciselasers (激光), but such systemsare often complex and costly.
The Chinese team has adopted an alternative approach: single-pixel (单像素) imaging.
“Unlike ordinary cameras which rely on millions of sensors, single-pixel imaging uses just one,”
Yao noted. It scans a scene to collect visual data, which is then processed by computers to
reconstruct an image. Through this technique, Yao’s team detected how sound waves had shaken a
paper card or leaf. Acomputer thendecoded the datainto audible sound.
英语试卷A 第5页（共 11页）Thedevice successfully captured spoken numbers in both Chinese and English and decoded
an excerpt from Beethoven’s Für Elise. “This method creates a relatively small amount ofdata,
making it easy to storeorupload,”Yaonoted. The team is refining the device’s capacityto detect
human heartbeat andheart rate, a developmentthatcouldenablenon-contactpatientmonitoringin
medicalsettings.
Currently, the technology onlyworks from about halfa meter away, and detecting sound in
noisy environments remains a key challenge. That will take more advanced technology and
extensive field testing. But ifthey succeed, we might notjust listen to the world around us — we
mightwatchit speak.
32．Theunderlined word “imperceptible”in paragraph 2isclosestinmeaningto________.
A. inaudible B. inaccessible C. unpredictable D.unnoticeable
33．Whatisparagraph3mainlyabout?
A. Research background. B. Studydesign.
C. Technical approaches. D.Keychallenges.
34．Howdoesthesingle-pixelimagingdevicedifferfrom ordinary cameras?
A. It works at a superhigh speed. B. Itprocessesdatawitha computer.
C.It usespreciselaserstoscanscenes. D. It collects datawith only one sensor.
35．Whatis theauthor’s attitudetowards thefutureofthetechnology?
A. Expectant. B.Doubtful. C.Concerned. D.Uncertain.

Creative expression, particularly through learning and making music, greatly improves well-
being and meaning in later life, promoting mental, emotional, and even physical health as people
age.
For older adults, activities like attending a songwriting workshop or joining a chorus go
beyond mere leisure. They become apathway towhat Aristotle called “eudaemonia”, a life well-
lived. 36
Musicoffersauniquewayforsuchmeaningfulness,whichoftengrowsfromdeepconnection.
Whether it is the dedication to mastering an instrument, the excitement ofcreating music on the
spot, orthe sweetness of listeningto a familiartune, older adults donot engage in music as lone
individuals. 37
英语试卷A 第6 页（共 11页）Such meaningful involvement can even turn musical tools — a piano, a violin, or a digital
device—intoextensions oftheperson. 38 Thisreflectsthesaying, “Youarewhatyou do.”
Some famous musicians travel with their own instruments, which proves how deeply music can
shapepersonalidentity.
39 AsdancerTwylaTharpremarked,“Artistheonlywaytorunawaywithoutleaving
home.” The emotional uplift indirectly supports health by boosting memory, lowering stress, and
strengthening social ties —all crucial for agingwell.
Deep engagement inmusic adds meaning to later life, bringing happiness through creativity
and commitment. 40 Actually, music enriches lives at every age, so promoting creative
expression through itshould beacentralaimin education and enrichment for everyone.
A. It’s mostlytheresult ofexternal entertainment.
B. Becoming a“musician”is thusaworthygoal for older adults.
C. They bondwith others, culture, and their own growing sense ofself.
D.The moreoften oneplays an instrument,the greaterjoyonemay gain.
E.Creative musical experience also provides an escape from dailyroutines.
F. With skill and regular practice, theinstrument becomes part ofwho oneis.
G. This is notbriefpleasure, butlasting happiness that comes from living meaningfully.

英语试卷A 第9 页（共 11页）Threehundreddollars—hisentiresummerearnings,meantforbooksandawintercoat.Now
gone, all because ofa messy room!
Andy was aquiet international student who kept his sideofthedormperfectlyorganized.For
him, neatness brought calm and control. His roommate, Eric, was the opposite: he lived in what
could only be described as ahappy mess. Clothespiledonhischairemptysnackbagscollected on
the floor, and the shared waste bin always overflowed. But Eric was kind — he’d shown Andy
around campus, helped withhis homework, and lifted his spiritswhen hewas homesick.
Andywas grateful. He never complained. He didn’t want to start a fight. So, he’d sigh and
quietlytake out the garbage, thinking it was a small price for such a good friend. But he’dbeen
home for two weeks — and returned to this. Now, holding the letter, he felt it was a big mistake.
“I’vebeen cleaning up his mess, and I get fined too?” he thought in frustration. This wasn’t fair.
His usual “avoid trouble” plan had failed.
Justthen,thedoorflewopen.“Andy! Youwon’tbelieve the game today …”Eric’s energetic
entry stopped short. “Whoa.You lookpale asa sheet. What’s wrong?”
Without a word,Andyheld out the warning letter. Eric took it, his smile fading as he read.
“Oh,no.Afine?Threehundred? I’m … I’m really sorry.” He looked from the letter to the pile of
pizzaboxes in the corner, which he’d meant to throw out for days, then to Andy’s spotless desk.
Real guilt washed over his face. “I’ve been completely careless about this. I’m sorryAndy …”

"It's okay,"Andy said quietly,"but let's clean it together now."Eric nodded heavily,
his face filled with guilt. He immediately grabbed a garbage bag and bent down to
pickupthe pizzaboxes and snack bags on the floor.Andy took a broom and swept the
crumbs into a dustpan,while Eric wiped the sticky table and folded the messy clothes
on the chair. Theydidn'tsaymuchwhilecleaning,but the awkwardness intheairgradually
faded away. Afteran hourof hard work , the dorm room was tidy and clean again,justlike

They both knew that one-time cleaning was not enough-they needed rules.So they
sat down at the clean desk and made a simple dorm rule list together.First,each of
