Paul Edward Farmer Jr. was born on Oct. 26, 1959, in North Adams, Mass. When Paul was around 12, his
father bought an old bus and converted it into a mobile home. Paul, his parents and his five siblings (同胞) spent
the next few years traveling.
One summer, he and his family worked alongside Haitian migrant (移民的) workers picking oranges,
listening curiously as they chatted to one another in Creole. That was Paul’s first encounter with Haiti, the country
that would appeal to him in his 20s and then direct him toward a career in public health. After graduating from
Duke University, he moved to Haiti, volunteering in Cange. He arrived when Haiti’s hospital system was so
threadbare that patients had to pay for basic supplies, like medical gloves. He said he was really taken aback by the
situation and decided to open a different kind of clinic. Over the years, Dr. Farmer raised millions of dollars for an
ever-expanding network of community health facilities.
The clinic in Haiti, at first a single room, grew over the years to a network of 16 medical centers in the
country, with a local staff of almost 7, 000. Among them was a teaching hospital opened in 2013. There, poor
patients with difficult diseases paid a basic fee of around $1.50 a day for treatment, including medication. Partners
in Health he founded with the other three also expanded into Rwanda, where Dr. Farmer helped the government
restructure the country’s health system, improving health outcomes in areas. Dr. Farmer also helped develop new
public health approaches in Peru, Russia and Lesotho, among other places.
Over the years, he kept in touch with many of his patients. “He had a very tender heart,” said Laurie Nuell, a
close friend and board director at Partners in Health. “Seeing pain and suffering was very hard for him. It just hurt
him. I’m a social worker by training. One thing I learned is about keeping a professional distance. He was different.
That’s the beauty of it.”
24. What does the underlined word “threadbare” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. Well-equipped. B. Poorly-developed. C. Strictly-managed. D. Newly-built.
25. Why did Dr. Farmer decide to open the clinic?
A. To offer accessible medical care. B. To promote local social justice.
C. To pursue his academic ambition. D. To expand his medical project globally.
26. Which of the following best describes Dr. Farmer according to the text?
A. Merciful but distant.
B. Ambitious and wealthy.
C. Warm-hearted and action-driven.
D. Professional and indifferent.
27. What is the best title for this passage?A. From Duke to Haiti: A Doctor’s Journey
B. The Orange Orchard: Where a Dream Began
C. Partners in Health: A Global Organization
D. Healing the World: The Heart of Paul Farmer
C
Electrolyte (电解质) drinks have become increasingly popular on gym floors and running routes, widely
promoted as essential for boosting athletic performance and speeding up post-exercise recovery. Once used only by
top athletes to cope with intense training in hot conditions, they now attract casual gym-goers and office workers as
a simple daily way to stay hydrated (水分充足). These products, ranging from ready-to-drink sports drinks to
powders that mix with water, can cost a few pounds per day, adding up to a considerable sum over time.
Electrolytes are essential minerals that play a key role in regulating nerves, supporting muscle function and
maintaining fluid balance in the human body. Professor Graeme Close, a leading sports nutrition researcher at
Liverpool John Moores University, points out that most people are wasting money on electrolyte drinks
unnecessarily. A regular, well-designed diet can easily supply enough electrolytes for the average person’s daily
needs.
However, during long and intense exercise where people sweat heavily, their electrolyte levels may drop
significantly. “If you exercise for a long period of time, especially if you are a salty sweater, adding electrolytes in
the form of sodium (钠) is a good choice,” Close says. Besides, electrolyte drinks can increase thirst, which helps
people drink more water — something particularly necessary during extended workouts.
For moderate exercise such as a short trip to the gym, electrolytes are not necessary at all. “Just sip water
regularly. That’s more than good enough, so keep your hard-earned money for other things,” Close advises. Of
course, if you just enjoy the taste and it encourages you to drink more during exercise, it is not a bad thing. Instead
of buying expensive commercial powders, he suggests a simple homemade mix: two-thirds water, one-third fruit
juice (like pineapple juice) and a tiny pinch of salt. He also notes there’s little scientific evidence that taking
electrolytes first thing in the morning brings any real benefit.
28. Which best describes the current market for electrolyte drinks?
A. Primarily used for top athletes in extreme training.
B. Chiefly sold as sports drinks to professionals.
C. Mainly sold as costly nerve disease treatments.
D. Shifted from professional to the general market.
29. Why does Professor Close think people waste money on electrolyte drinks?
A. Such drinks are mostly just plain water.
B. People mix electrolyte powders poorly.
C. A normal balanced diet offers enough electrolytes.
D. The body maintains fluid balance by itself.
30. What can be inferred about the recommended homemade mix?
A. It works best when taken in the morning.
B. It only works with special pineapple juice.C. It is worse for the body than commercial products.
D. It is a cheap alternative to expensive drinks.
31. What is Professor Close’s attitude towards electrolyte drinks?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. disapproving. D. Unconcerned.
D
In the global effort to fight climate change, scientists are exploring innovative solutions in unexpected areas
— specifically the soil beneath our feet. A recent study published in Nature introduces a promising discovery:
certain kinds of naturally existing bacteria can greatly reduce agricultural emissions of nitrous oxide (N₂O 氧化亚
氮), a powerful greenhouse gas.
Nitrous oxide, mainly released from farmland because of the overuse of nitrogen (氮)-based fertilizers, has
long been a critical climate concern. As Professor Lars Bakken of the Norwegian University of Life Sciences
explains, this gas traps heat 265 times more effectively than carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and can stay in the
air for over a century.
To develop this eco-friendly solution, researchers grew the bacteria using organic waste. Based on earlier
studies, their main goal was to identify certain bacteria that could reduce N₂O emissions without staying in the soil
for too long, so as to keep the soil healthy. Tests showed two weeks after the second fertilizer application, the
bacteria cut emissions by about half. After three months, the soil’s microbial (微生物的) makeup remained the
same, indicating the bacteria pose no threat to the soil ecosystem.
The bacteria are not genetically changed and live naturally in special devices that transform organic waste
into biofuels. Paul Carini of the University of Arizona noted that these bacteria’s natural origin may facilitate
agricultural acceptance. Besides, the bacteria can be added to fertilizers for farmers to use directly, which makes
the method cost-effective and opens up numerous possibilities for managing farmland in a sustainable way.
However, significant challenges still exist before it can be widely used. Researchers explained that soils vary
greatly around the world, so more field tests are needed to make sure the bacteria work effectively in different
environments. Most importantly, farmers currently get no financial motivation to use such methods. Bakken argued
that governments must make policies to make reducing N₂O emissions profitable. If these barriers are overcome,
this bacterial treatment could greatly reduce agriculture’s role in climate change.
32.Why is nitrous oxide a critical climate concern?
A. It is overused in nitrogen-based fertilizers.
B. It traps heat much more effectively than CO₂.
C. It is mainly released from farmland.
D. It destroys crop growth in farmland easily.
33. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Researchers failed in earlier experiments.
B. The bacteria don’t grow well in organic waste.
C. The bacteria are environmentally safe for the soil.
D. Organic waste changes the soil’s microbial structure.
34.Which aspect of the bacteria is mainly discussed in paragraph 4?A. Its producing process. B. Its working principle. C. Its potential benefits. D. Its research value.
35.What’s the key to widely using the bacteria?
A. Enabling farmers to gain profits. B. Reducing the cost of organic waste.
C. Persuading experts to make policies. D. Solving varied soil condition problems.

People usually take local wonders for granted. Growing up on the East Coast, I thought the ocean was just
ordinary, while visitors were amazed by its awesome power. 36 But the locals there seemed indifferent to the
beauty around them. The longer we’re exposed to the surrounding wonders, the more likely we turn a blind eye to
them.
37 They include both breathtaking sights and small things, which are the building blocks of our lives. A
diner not very far from where I live, the Patrician Grill, is such a small wonder. It has stood in downtown Toronto
since the 1950s, fighting against the rising skyscrapers around it. It has witnessed decades of changes and
generations of people in the neighborhood come and go.
I’ve lived nearby for 12 years and watched many businesses rise and fall. Somehow, I took this diner for
granted as it faded into the background each day I walked by. 38 I even thought it would be passed down for
generations. So I was shocked to hear the news that it would close after over 70 years of operation. I’d never set
foot inside it. I always thought I had plenty of time to visit.
The diner has a simple and warm atmosphere, with friendly staff and regular customers. 39
It has become a beloved part of the community. Many people have shared their precious memories there. It is
more than just a restaurant; it is a piece of local history, which holds the unique stories of families, friends and
neighbors, making it irreplaceable in people’s heart. 40
Tomorrow I’ll be back to experience it while I still can.
A. This made me feel a strong sense of guilt.
B. I just saw it as a common part of my daily life.
C. It’s a pity that this small wonder will disappear.
D. It only accepts cash and has a simple decoration inside.
E. Many people regret not visiting it before the news broke.
F. Indeed, what counts is to cherish the small wonders around us.
G. Later, when I moved to Calgary, the mountains took my breath away.

My daughter and I recently travelled back from Boston. Among our memories, one experience 41 .As a literary 42 , I’d planned to visit a bookstore recommended by my favorite author. On our first day, we

第二节（满分25分）
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。
When my eldest son Luke turned 13, our relationship hit the rocks. The once polite and gentle boy turned
moody, distant and easily annoyed. He flew into anger over tiny incidents, like a slightly messy desk, a mild
reminder of bedtime or a casual question about his school life. Every effort I made to comfort or guide him ended
in vain. He would turn a deaf ear to my words, mumble angrily with his head down and storm into his bedroom
without a word, even firmly refusing my help with tricky math problems, leaving our once close and warm bond
completely strained.
I was swallowed by deep anxiety and sadness as his 15th birthday was approaching. Determined to mend the
broken relationship before it was too late, I turned to a professional child psychologist for practical advice. Hesuggested that I step into Luke’s inner world instead of imposing my own ideas and expectations on him. One
evening, I found him absorbed in online video game streams, a hobby I had never paid attention to or understood
before. Instead of urging him to study immediately, I sat beside him quietly and showed sincere curiosity. Though
Luke looked surprised and hesitated at first, he soon shared his thoughts and feelings about the games excitedly,
which melted the cold ice between us a little.
Besides, I set up a peaceful “talking time” for him every day, putting aside all my work to listen carefully
without interruption whenever he wanted to share his thoughts.
The tough test came last spring. We signed Luke up for a rowing program, expecting it to shape his body,
build his courage and cheer him up. However, he declared firmly that he would not attend it just three days before
the program started, his face clouded with obvious unwillingness.
