Wildlife Wonders
The land is cooling down after the warmer months, and we are beginning to experience cool south-westerly
changes amongst the still-warm days. Recent rainy days have provided much-needed moisture to the ground, and the
vegetation is responding eagerly.
第 2 页 共 9 页With the winter holidays just around the corner, we would love to welcome you back to the reserve to experience
this seasonal transformation for yourself. It is a wonderful time for families to reconnect with the nature, though we
do recommend booking your tour in advance to ensure your preferred time is secured during this busy period.
Golden skies of gwangal moronn
Pink heath flowers, red sunrises, and golden evenings are all features of the gwangal moronn season (late March
to mid June). This shift brings photo-perfection to our horizons, with stunning sunrises and sunsets. It is the ideal
time of year for our Dusk Discovery Tours, when the night sky is also exceptionally bright with stars.
In the shop: gifts with conscience
Our gift and book shop is more than just a place for mementos; it is an extension of our mission. This month,
we are featuring the stunning Australian-made wood earrings. Inspired by the Australian bush, these bright and
cheerful earrings will add a stunning pop to any autumn outfit.
Emu Café-warming winter flavours
The changes in the seasons are also being reflected in our Emu Café menu. As the air cools, our warming winter
soups and shakshuka eggs are becoming the lunch of choice for many visitors.
All proceeds (收益) from Wildlife Wonders go to the Conservation Ecology Centre (CEC) to fund research and
conservation programs. This crucial work ensures a safer future for our precious wildlife and ecosystems.

On April 1, just days before Qingming Festival, a lively cooking workshop took place in the cafeteria at Beijing
Forestry University (BFU). At the counter, 19-year-old Li Tonghan carefully shaped a green rice ball—qingtuan, a
traditional seasonal delicacy enjoyed during the festival.
“The workshop is very popular—around 80 percent of our classmates signed up,” Li said. “The instructors are
cafeteria staff who guide us step by step. Even those with no cooking experience can easily keep up.”
For Li, a freshman studying mathematics with a demanding academic schedule, the two-hour cooking session
第 3 页 共 9 页offered a welcome break. “Doing something with my hands really helps me relax,” he said. “It also makes me
appreciate the cafeteria staff’s work after the experience.”
“This cooking workshop is part of BFU’s broader initiative to promote hands-on learning and a strong work
ethic (职业操守)”, explained Chen Yuzhen, secretary of the university’s General Service Department. According to
her, more than 20 similar programs have been introduced, covering campus services and daily life skills.
For many participants, these activities also help them acquire practical skills that will benefit them after
graduation and help build confidence in handling unexpected situations. Song Linshuo, 19, enrolled in a basic first
aid and health training course at the campus clinic, where students learned cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR),
how to use automated external defibrillators (AEDs), and how to respond to snake or insect bites—skills especially
useful for forestry majors.
“I feel much more confident now,” said Song with sparkling eyes.
A 2025 survey by China Youth Daily found that over 91 percent of interviewed college students reported that
their universities had made these types of practical programs compulsory. Experiencing the programs isn’t just about
acquiring practical skills—it’s also about learning to actively engage in schooling.
24. What did Li Tonghan do at the cooking workshop?
A. He taught others how to make qingtuan.
B. He appreciated the cafeteria staff’s work.
C. He shaped green rice balls with guidance.
D. He integrated Mathematics to the workshop.
25. Why do universities introduce such programs?
A. To help students develop comprehensive abilities.
B. To require all students to take compulsory courses.
C. To replace traditional academic courses completely.
D. To reduce the workload of cafeteria staff and nurses.
26. Which of the following best describes the programs?
A. Stressful. B. Entertaining. C. Competitive. D. Transformative.
27. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Why Qingtuan Workshop Gains Popularity
B. Ways to Build Strong Work Ethic at College
C. Learning by Doing: Making Education Active
D. A Popular Cooking Class in a Beijing University
C
For decades, scientists assumed human memory works like a digital hard drive: information is stored steadily
and recalled accurately. Yet recent research published in Scientific American challenges this view, arguing that
memory is reconstructive rather than reproductive. Every time we recall a past event, we unintentionally rewrite
details, mixing real experiences with imagination, bias or later knowledge.
This phenomenon, called memory reconsolidation, happens at the brain’s cellular level. When a memory is
activated, neural connections holding that memory temporarily weaken. If new information enters the mind during
this period, it can be woven into the original memory, changing what we believe we remember. The process explains
why eyewitness accounts often differ sharply, even among people who saw the same incident.
Critics once believed false memories only appeared under strong suggestion or in vulnerable groups. These
groups they thought were subject to outside disturbance. However, controlled experiments show ordinary adults
regularly develop minor false memories in daily life. For example, people may misremember where they placed an
第 4 页 共 9 页object or the exact words of a conversation, and convince their version is fully true.
Understanding memory reconstruction carries practical value. Courts rely heavily on witness memory, while
therapists must distinguish real trauma (创伤) from constructed memories. Researchers stress that memory
imperfection is not a brain defect but an adaptive feature. It allows humans to simplify messy past details and fit old
experiences into present-day understanding, though it comes with the cost of occasional inaccuracy.
28. What does the new research find about human memory?
A. It stores information like an electronic device.
B. It changes when people recall past events.
C. It can barely be influenced by later knowledge.
D. It becomes weaker with frequent recall.
29. Why do eyewitnesses give different descriptions of one event?
A. They have different versions of experiences.
B. They are unwilling to tell the whole truth.
C. Their memories are reconstructed differently.
D. Their brains fail to receive real-time signals.
30.What does the word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Easily affected. B. Highly intelligent.
C. Extremely honest. D. Badly treated.
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The process of storing human memories.
B. How false memories form in participants.
C. Memory is imperfect but adaptive in nature.
D. The importance of memory in certain cases.
D
Culture and its intergenerational transmission is the defining feature of humanity, separating us from other beasts.
While some species can pass on knowledge, none can achieve complex cultural breakthroughs as we do.
Birds, though, are not so far away. Despite the old “bird brain” misconception, birds’ small heads actually
contain very large numbers of neurons(神经元). And birds possess simple cultural transmission, tempting us to
question their lack of advanced capabilities. Moreover, birds live longer and are far more likely to attentively raise
their offspring. Some biologists thus talk about birds as a “near miss” at highly complex culture. So how is it possible
that birds did not end up in the same orbit as humans? In fact, they fell into a steeper evolutionary trap. They fly.
Flight is an incredible adaptation that lets birds escape predators easily, avoid large threats, and have access to
resources not available to the landbound. Because natural selection is driven purely by current challenges rather than
a pull toward an ideal, flight effectively resolved a huge amount of the pressure that drove humans to seek cultural
efficiencies in feeding themselves, fighting predators, hunting prey, transmission of information and other
complicated things that we do to be successful. Birds, by comparison, live on Easy Street. They fly away from
predators, food shortage, and from environmental change. There is no pressure on them to evolve the means to
establish agriculture.
Similarly, everything that is true about flight’s incredible selection benefit is true about human culture, but not
for free. Take bipedalism (二足性) as an example. It frees up our hands to make machines and to write but at a heavy
cost of evolving odd, long feet and an upright posture which causes back pain and makes childbirth dangerous. Other
qualities we rely on for our cultural abilities, like intelligence and sociability, are also expensive in energy and survival
terms. In evolutionary terms, that means they must provide a lot of benefit to be worth that cost.
第 5 页 共 9 页That’s why birds will not drive Bentleys, and we will never fly.
32. Which element of birds is not mentioned as a reason of being called a “near miss”?
A. Strong intelligence. B. Long lifespan.
C. Parental care. D. Physical endurance.
33. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Flight makes birds face less survival pressure than humans.
B. Birds depend on flight to hunt food and protect themselves.
C. Cultural efficiencies are important for human development.
D. Birds do not need agriculture to deal with food shortage.
34. What is the author’s attitude towards the evolutionary costs humans paid for their cultural abilities?
A. Appreciative. B. Objective.
C. Regretful. D. Skeptical.
35. Which of the following best describes the structure of the text?
A. ① / ②③④ / ⑤
B. ①② / ③ / ④⑤
C. ①② / ③④ / ⑤
D. ① / ②③ / ④⑤

Louv, the author of the bestsellers Last Child in the Woods (2005) and The Nature Principle (2011), coined the
term “nature-deficit disorder” to describe the loss of connection children increasingly feel with the natural world.
36 It is merely a descriptive expression reflecting a loss of communication with other living things. Nevertheless,
he argues, nature-deficit disorder affects “health, spiritual well-being and community life.”
A growing body of research supports Louv’s view. 37 They also score higher on tests of creativity and
problem-solving. “Nature is not a luxury,” Louv says. “It’s a necessity.”
38 Many children today grow up in neighborhoods without safe green spaces, and screen time has
replaced unstructured outdoor play. “We’re raising a generation that’s more familiar with virtual worlds than real
forests,” Louv says.
The consequences extend beyond individual health. Children who lack exposure to nature are less likely to
develop environmental awareness or adopt sustainable habits as adults. 39
Transforming the trend requires collective action. 40 “The solution is simple,” Louv says. “Get kids
outside.”
A. This disconnection threatens future conservation efforts.
B. It refers to the physical illness caused by lack of exposure to nature.
C. The concept does not belong to formal medical diagnostic illnesses.
D. Urbanization and digital media are the primary drivers of this disconnection.
E. Children with higher creativity tend to spend more time outdoors voluntarily.
F. Children spending more time outdoors have lower rates of obesity, depression and attention disorders.
G. Schools, families and cities can cooperate to prioritize outdoor time and create accessible natural spaces.

第 6 页 共 9 页In a small village hidden deep in the mountains, the ancient art of bamboo weaving had been passed down for

about giving them a new voice. Heritage is not a relic to be 52 in a glass case; it is a living tradition that can
grow with the times.”
The village has become a model of cultural revitalization. For Xiao Yue, the greatest joy is seeing the 53
on Master Chen’s face when he watches young hands 54 the bamboo strips with skill and love. “This is not
just a business,” she says. “It’s a 55 between the past and the future.”

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。
For as long as Jack could remember, his grandparents’ love had been his warmest shelter. It was a constant,
gentle force, embodied in the hugs after school, the homemade cookies on the plate, and the bedtime stories told in
their soft voices. It shone in their proud eyes from the audience at every school play and soccer match. Jack adored
them deeply.
However, as Artificial Intelligence and smart technology wove themselves into their daily life, a quiet, slowly
widening gap emerged. His grandparents, once the pillars (支柱) of his world, now struggled in this new digital
landscape. Video calls, meant to connect, froze repeatedly because they had accidentally switched off the Wi-Fi again.
Their smart TV became a maze of confusing menus. Once his grandparents were nearly cheated of a large sum of
money by a convincingly AI-generated voice message pretending to be Jack. Each frustrated call for help seemed to
come precisely when Jack was buried in textbooks, but his own world was overwhelmed by the pressure of coming
college entrance exams.
At first, Jack responded with brief, impatient sighs. “It’s simple, Grandma. Just tap there!” he’d say, his mind
still racing with math formulas and historical dates. He considered their problems as tiresome interruptions, which
wasted his precious time. He didn’t miss the faint hurt in their eyes when he rushed off the phone, but he buried his
own guilt under the weight of his academic anxieties.
Then, one rainy evening, he found his grandfather bent over the kitchen table, squinting(眯着眼睛看) at his
phone. The man was trying to use a translation app to decipher（破译）instructions of an imported chemical drug.
第 8 页 共 9 页In that silent moment, Jack didn’t see merely a technological obstacle. He saw his proud, self-reliant grandfather, a
man who had built a family and a life with his own hands, now abandoned by a world transforming too fast. A wave
of shame washed over Jack.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next weekend, Jack arrived at their home not with textbooks, but with patience.
After these joyful moments, he also taught them a few simple rules to stay safe online.
