If you want a great hotel and a close encounter with the animal kingdom, here are the best hotels with engagement
programs and bonus activities with animals. Best Friends Roadhouse (Kanab, Utah)
It lets you stay on the grounds of Best Friends Animal Sanctuary (庇护所), a massive shelter for a wide
range of animals, from goats to dogs to rabbits.
Today, it’s home to over 1,600 rescued animals, ranking first in size of its kind in the US. When you visit, you can
spend time in multiple areas, including Dogtown, Cat World, Horse Haven and the recovery center of Wild Friends.
Longneck Manor (Fredericksburg, Texas)
It is a place that covers over 100 acres, home to three rhinos and five giraffes. Unlike other similar hotels,
this is almost like a combination between a zoo and a conservation area.
You can get up-close and personal with rhinos and giraffes and even contribute to helping keep wild populations
safe and healthy. Farm Sanctuary (Watkins Glen, New York)
It is a massive animal sanctuary where you can set up shops and get your hands dirty by exploring the farm.
It is ideal for anyone who likes pigs, cows, turkeys, and other classic farm animals.
You can take tours of the sanctuary and learn about farm practices, sustainability, and, of course, the animals and
how they ended up at the farm. Atlanta Alpaca Treehouse (Atlanta, Georgia)
In Atlanta, inside a massive bamboo forest, there’s a mixed pack of alpaca (羊驼) and llamas (美洲驼) and atree house you can rent for the night.
The animals are responsible for eating new growth to prevent the bamboo from overtaking the city of
Atlanta. You can do yoga classes with them, go on a weekend-long healing retreat (also guided by llamas and
alpacas), and more.

It’s a sudden drop into a mangrove forest (红树林) full of three feet of salty water over thick, twisty (弯弯曲
曲的) tree roots, but Andrew Otazo has no trouble finding the way. He climbs down the sudden slope like a Spider-
Man, using branches and thick vines (藤) and footholds in the dirt. At the bottom, Otazo finds his treasure: trash.
“You name it, any item you can name, and I have found it in the mangroves,” he says. “Microwave ovens,
mattresses, sofas, sets of plates and dishes. Those are really disgusting.” But every shoe, bottle, car battery, cooler
and other piece of garbage Otazo removes from the mangroves reclaims space for what should be there: bird
nesting grounds and fish nurseries.
Otazo is on a search to clear as much of that space as he can. He’s also working to persuade his fellow
Floridians to tell their elected officials to work to cut down on plastic pollution and update outdated waste systems
that carry street trash into the ocean. “If you’re relying on me, just one guy picking up trash, it is all over for us,”
Otazo said. “But if what I’m doing shows other people the problem, and they agree we need to work toward asolution, that’s the idea.”
Lately he’s been concentrating on the mangroves that ring Virginia Key, an island in Biscayne Bay that
offers a splendid view of the city skyline. What people in the city don’t see is the piles of garbage caught in the tree
roots. “It was suffering. It was the worst. It destroyed me,” Otazo recalls. He made the local news, and his trash-
filled homemade backpack has been on display in the History Miami Museum ever since. “I never, ever in a million
years thought people would pay attention to me because I’m picking up trash,” Otazo said. It’s a mission now.
Pounds turned into tons. He reached 35,265 pounds — picked up over 184 days throughout the years — in
mid-October. Otazo said he has no plans to stop. “The trash will come back, but I’m stubborn,” he said. “I’ll keep
doing this until I fall over.”
24．What does the author believe a mangrove forest to be?
A．A place to house birds and fishes. B．A place to pick up trash easily.
C．A place to enjoy pretty city views. D．An ideal place to deal with trash.
25．What is crucial to solve the problem according to Otazo?
A．Individual efforts in picking up trash. B．Persuading officials to lessen pollution.
C．Government’s updating waste system. D．Raising public awareness and joint efforts.
26．What did Otazo feel about his hitting the news?
A．Regretful. B．Joyful. C．Concerned. D．Unexpected.
27．Which of the following can best describe Otazo?
A．A powerful Spider-Man. B．A committed conservationist.
C．A lonely trash collector. D．An ambitious wildlife explorer.
Climate change has made extreme weather events such as bush fires and floods more frequent and more
likely in recent years. Will firsthand experience of these events change how people think and act about climate
change, making it seem immediate and local rather than a distant or future problem?
New research led by Viktoria Cologne at ETH Zurich in Switzerland may help to explain what’s going on.
The study, published in Nature Climate Change, looked at the question of extreme weather and climate opinion
using two global datasets (数据集).
The Trust in Science and Science-related Populism (TISP) survey measures public support for climate
policies and the extent that people think climate change is behind increases in extreme weather. The survey asked
people how much they supported five specific actions to cut carbon emissions (排放). On average, support was
fairly strong, with an average rating of 2.37 across the five policies.The study found most people around the world have experienced heatwaves and heavy rainfall in recent
decades. Do people in countries with higher exposure to extreme weather events show greater support for climate
policies? This study found they don’t. In most cases, living in a country where more people are exposed to disasters
was not reflected in stronger support for climate action.
Crucially, people who more strongly believed climate change had worsened these events were also more
likely to support climate policies. In fact, this belief mattered more for policy support than whether they had
actually experienced the events firsthand.
This study highlights what may affect public thinking: helping people recognize the link between climate
change and extreme weather events. In countries such as Australia, climate change makes up only about 1% of
media coverage. What’s more, most of the coverage focuses on social or political aspects rather than scientific,
ecological, or economic impacts. Many stories about disasters linked to climate change also fail to mention the link,
or indeed mention climate change at all. Making these connections clearer may encourage stronger public support
for climate action.
28．What does the research led by Viktoria Cologne mainly focus on?
A．Two global datasets.
B．People in disaster-affected areas.
C．Public trust in science.
D．Public support for climate policies.
29．The people who ______ are more likely to support climate policies.
A．read social news regularly
B．experience disasters first-hand
C．have engaged in the survey
D．know clearly of climate impacts
30．What can be done to help support climate policies according to the study?
A．More financial support.
B．More disaster-climate link reports.
C．More attention to weather.
D．More accurate weather forecasts.
31．What could be the best title for the passage?
A．Experiencing Is Not Enough to Change Views
B．Emergency Responses to Natural DisastersC．Extreme Weather Is Changing Our Lives
D．Global Surveys on Climate Attitudes
A lively urban forest can plant the seed of wellness in the minds and hearts of people struggling with the
thick brush of mental illness.
In 2022, a CNN survey found that 90% of Americans believed the U. S. was experiencing a mental health
crisis. Unfortunately, the data backs it up. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five U. S.
adults experience mental illness. It’s a troubling trend that affects people of all backgrounds. Therefore, what is
important at present is to give voice to the silent struggle so many people face and consider how we might improve
people’s mental health.
Experts say one way we can get there is by increasing the investment in planting trees. Research shows that
access to trees reduces rates of depression, lowers levels of the brain’s main stress hormone (激素), and improves
thinking function. This is especially true in cities and urban areas, where residents are significantly more likely to
battle depression and anxiety. By fragmenting concrete jungles with urban forests, we can help make people
happier and healthier.
The positive impact of trees is well-documented in a growing body of scientific studies in the U. S. and
around the world. For example, a study in Germany concluded that just living within 100 meters of a tree has the
ability to reduce the need for antidepressant (抗抑郁的) drugs. In Denmark, researchers found that children living
at the lowest levels of green space had a significantly higher risk of developing psychiatric (精神病的) disorders
later in life as compared to children living near strong green space. Some doctors are even looking to trees as a
form of medicine, specifying struggling patients with a walk in the woods to fully lose themselves in nature (a
practice known as forest bathing).
It’s clear that trees are not a “nice-to-have.” Trees are a must-have. Everyone deserves equal access to trees
and the positive power they carry. We need to offer people hope.
32．Why does the author mention the CNN survey in paragraph 2?
A．To promote the authority of CNN. B．To criticize the government’s inaction.
C．To highlight the mental health crisis. D．To attract investment in green projects.
33．What does the underlined word “fragmenting” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Breaking up. B．Rooting up. C．Powering up. D．Wrapping up.
34．What is a proven effect of living near trees?
A．It can heal mental illnesses. B．It improves depression condition.C．It can change people’s lifestyle. D．It ensures children’s mental health.
35．What is the author’s suggestion about making trees a must-have?
A．Settling down in the woods possibly. B．Constructing several other green cities.
C．Greater investment in green facilities. D．More research investment in depression.
The debate around artificial intelligence often focuses on automation, yet a more far-reaching revolution is
underway: advanced Human AI collaboration (协作) reshaping professional landscapes. 36 . Increasing
creativity and idea generating
Many might view AI as opposite to the free-flowing nature of human creativity. 37 . This is one of the
most unexpected benefits of Human AI collaboration. Instead of providing the final product, it serves as a
brainstorming partner and a source of inspiration. Pioneering personalized learning and skill development
Traditional education often struggles with one-size-fits-all approaches. 38 . It provides highly
personalized, adaptive educational experiences that satisfy individual needs and paces. This transforms how we
acquire new skills and develop expertise throughout our careers. Enhancing Problem Solving Efficiency in
Complex Systems
39 when we face incredibly complex problems involving vast datasets, interconnected variables
and dynamic environments. Here, Human AI collaboration provides an unexpected leap forward, allowing us to
address challenges previously considered unsolvable. AI’s ability to process, review and simulate (模拟) complex
situations at lightning speed adds to human strategic thinking and specialized expertise. 40
Access to specialized knowledge and expert services has historically been limited due to cost, geographical
barriers, or shortage of professionals. Human AI collaboration is unexpectedly breaking down these barriers,
making expert-level insights and tools available to more audience, enabling individuals and small businesses in
previously unimaginable ways.
A．Developing resistance and problem-solving
B．Human thinking limits can be quickly reached
C．But AI can facilitate creative thinking and new ideas
D．Here is how Human AI collaboration transforms your work
E．Human AI collaboration is unexpectedly reshaping learning
F．Popularizing professional skills and making them accessible
G．The following is how Human AI collaboration helps your daily life三、完形填空
Sometimes, just a few words at the critical moment can change the direction of someone’s life — and this
was exactly what happened to Elizabeth Vaughan.
Forty years ago, as a seventh grader, she 41 a solo (单人表演) in the school choir’s (合唱团)
performance. The day of the show, she was backstage, looking through the curtains, the 42 packed with
people. Everyone filed in. The curtain opened and the choir began to 43 . A single microphone was
standing at the front of the stage, lit by a bright spotlight, ready for her solo. It was her 44 .
Initially, everything went 45 . She felt overjoyed, singing extremely confidently. Then came the
last high note. With her 46 nearly touching the microphone, the note suddenly exploded out of the 47
, ear-piercing (刺耳的) and deafeningly loud. All the audience’s heads, involuntarily, sprang back in their 48
, some having their jaws dropped wide open. How embarrassing! She truly wanted the stage to 49 and
swallow her whole.
Eventually, the concert ended. She still remained 50 . Just then appeared a pair of large athletic
shoes. “You have a very 51 voice!” the new guy comforted.
52 by him, she transformed from deciding never to sing in front of people again to considering
53 with music. Now she is a professional singer, songwriter and a 54 teacher. Her unsung hero’s
small act of grace is a reminder that a few 55 words can change the course of a life.

In Invitation to a Banquet: The Story of Chinese Food, Fuchsia Dunlop discovers the history of this
remarkable cuisine through 30 dishes, from slow-braised pork belly (红烧五花肉) to steamed rice. As 56
British writer, she explores the surprising 57 (clever) of a cuisine which she feels has not won the respect
it deserves in the world of fine dining: “Only the Chinese have placed cooking at the very core of their identity,”
she stresses.
Many supposedly modern eating ideas, Dunlop points out, 58 (accept) in China for centuries. The
Chinese pioneered various foods and restaurants, 59 were fashionable gathering places in 12th-century
Kaifeng, six centuries before they first appeared in Paris. The ideal has always aimed 60 achieving
moderation (适度) and balance — yin and yang, heating and cooling elements, main dishes and rice — to feed the
body 61 people are living in harmony with nature.
For most 62 (record) history, ordinary Chinese ate whole grains, used small meat quantities for
flavor, and threw almost nothing away. Rice 63 (supply) more calories than other grains, while soybean
preparations (大豆制品) deliver protein more 64 (economical). This efficiency allowed China to support
a large population on limited land.
Dunlop’s career was defined by Chinese flavors. Over decades she has built a career explaining Chinese
cooking to western readers, 65 (gain) a large following at home and abroad. She’s known, like a
celebrity, by her first name: “Fu Xia” in Chinese.

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。
“Oh no!” I said, rooting through my dance bag. “My other dance shoe! I must have left it at home.” “Ms.
Linda has a bin of shoes,” Mom said. Inside, I found a pair a size too big. In class, Ms. Linda reminded us of just
four practices left before the holiday program, making me feel overpowered. I didn’t sign up for this much work.
“Dance class is no fun,” I told Mom. That evening, I said, “I want to quit. Can’t I do piano or karate (空手
道) instead?” I expected her usual saying, but she surprised me. “I’m going to let you decide this time.” “Really?”
“But what will your dance partner do if you quit?” she asked. “She won’t mind,” I said. “I don’t think she even
knows my name.”
The next Friday, Grandma picked me up, needing to check on her sick dog Mattie. On Saturday, Grandma
took me to the holiday wreath (花环) sale at the garden center, where I unexpectedly ran into my dance partner.
“Hi, Kami,” she said. She did know my name! “Where were you yesterday?” “My grandma’s dog was sick,”
I said. “I’ll be glad when the dance program is over,” she said. “I thought you liked dance.” “I do,” she said, “But
being onstage makes me nervous. My grandmother is flying in to watch. I’m afraid I’ll mess up.” “I get nervous,
too,” I told her. “Don’t worry, you’ll do great.” As we left, I waved. “Bye, Sylvia.”
Over the next few days, I kept thinking about Sylvia and her grandmother flying in. On Friday, Mom said
softly, “Grandma called me, saying Mattie’s better today. She invited you to make cookies this afternoon.”
“Actually,” I said, “I’m going to finish dance class. I want to be there for Sylvia at the program.” “Good,” Momsmiled. “Any idea where your shoes are?”

(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；

something on the way. But in the morning, I sometimes have milk and eggs at home. Do you often have people
over for dinner?
W: Yes, I really like cooking. I often invite my friends over and cook for them.

learn from their experiences.
M: How does it work?
W: The program often includes activities like letting children manage small tasks at home or even organize their
own play dates. Kids learn better through real-life experiences rather than just structured lessons.

English serves as a way for people from different countries and cultures to communicate on the same level.
This is especially important in certain professions.
Firstly, take air traffic for example. When pilots and air traffic controllers communicate, they need to be
clear. Since English is the standard language used, it prevents misunderstandings and promotes safety.
Secondly, in the business world, English is equally important. Many international companies operate in
English, and professionals working in global markets often need to speak and write in English. Effective
communication in English can open doors to opportunities across borders.
Last but not least, in science, English is the main language for research publications and conferences.
Researchers publish their work in English to reach a global audience and contribute to international knowledge.
In summary, English is not just a language but a tool that bridges communication gaps in various
professions. Mastering English can offer advantages in both your career and personal growth.

66．Dear Editor,
I am writing on behalf of my club to apply for the “Best Club of the Year”.
Our club, the Poetry Reading Club, consists of 25 poetry-loving students and two professional teachers who
love English poetry. We hold a 90-minute sharing session every Friday, where members exchange reading insights
and appreciate classic poems together.
We have organized three free public poetry workshops for all students this year, and our annual campus
poetry recital has become one of the most anticipated school events, spreading the charm of poetry across the
campus. We sincerely hope to get this title to encourage more students to fall in love with literature.

Mom and I searched the house for my missing shoe. We turned every corner upside down but it was nowhere
to be found. Suddenly I remembered I took off the shoe to pet Grandma’s sick dog Mattie when I visited her last
week, so it must have been left there. I was so worried that I could hardly calm down, so we called Grandma
immediately. Grandma drove over with the shoe soon after we called her. After that, I never skipped any practice
and trained together with Sylvia every day, cheering each other up to prepare for the performance.
From behind the stage curtain, I saw our two grandmas seated together. They were smiling and waving at us,
full of expectation. Sylvia’s hand shook slightly, so I held it and reminded her we had practiced enough. When we
stepped onto the stage, we finished every move smoothly and perfectly. The audience burst into warm applause as
we finished. I looked at our excited grandmas waving at us. At that moment, I felt so glad I didn’t quit, and I
learned the meaning of being responsible for others.
