Passage 1
For millions of people with diabetes, daily insulin injections are a painful and challenging reality. The
repeated need for syringes(注射器) can cause skin problems and lead some patients to skip doses, resulting in
poor health. For years, scientists have sought a better way to deliver medicine, but the skin’s natural barrier makes
this extremely difficult, especially for large drug molecules like insulin.
Now, a breakthrough has been achieved by a research team from Zhejiang University. They discovered a
special material, a polymer(聚合物) named OP, which can pass through the skin barrier effectively. This
finding was surprising because it was previously believed that large molecules could not penetrate the skin in this
way. The team then explored how OP could be used to deliver medicine.
The researchers developed a clever method. They combined OP with insulin (胰岛素), creating a new
substance called OP-I. In this process, OP acts like a "courier," carrying the insulin "package" safely through the
layers of the skin and into the blood system. Tests on animals with diabetes showed that this method successfully
lowered blood sugar levels. Importantly, the technology was found to be safe; it did not damage the skin or cause
any side effects.
The significance of this discovery extends far beyond insulin. The research team stated that this delivery
platform could be used for many other important medicines that currently require injections. This includes drugs
for other conditions. The technology is now being prepared for wider use, offering hope for a future where people
with chronic diseases can manage their health without the fear and inconvenience of needles. This new approach
has the potential to greatly improve the quality of life for patients worldwide.

Passage 2
When China's Chang'e 6 probe brought back soil from the moon's far side, scientists noticed something
unusual. Unlike the loose, sandy soil collected from the near side by Chang'e 5, this new soil was strangely sticky
and clumpy. This mystery has now been solved, revealing important information for future space exploration.
Chinese scientists launched a study to find the cause. They first ruled out the obvious reasons for stickiness,
such as moisture or magnetic forces, finding no evidence of either. They then performed a simple test, observing
how steeply the soil could pile up. The results showed that the far-side soil could form much steeper slopes,
behaving more like damp garden soil than dry beach sand. This confirmed its special cohesive nature.
The answer, they discovered, lies in the shape and size of the soil's tiny particles. Using special 3D images,
researchers found that the particles from the far side are extremely small and have unusually sharp, rough edges.
These unique features cause the particles to stick together. The rough surfaces create more friction, locking the
pieces, and because the particles are so tiny, they are pulled together by weak natural forces.
Why are these particles so different? The moon's far side has suffered much more from the harsh space
environment. For millions of years, it has been constantly hit by tiny space rocks and blown by powerful solar
winds. This intense space weathering has not only broken the particles down but also melted and joined them into
complex, sharp-edged shapes, making the soil far more cohesive.
Understanding this sticky soil is more than just solving a scientific puzzle; it is a critical engineering
challenge. This rough, sticky material could block machines, cover solar panels, and jam the joints of a spacesuit.
Knowing its properties helps engineers design better rovers, landing pads, and equipment for future lunar bases,
ensuring that humanity's next steps on the moon are successful.
1. What does the passage aim to do?
A. To compare the different goals of the Chang'e 5 and 6 missions.
B. To discuss the cause of sticky lunar soil and its importance.
C. To argue that the moon's far side is a better place for exploration.
D. To describe the process of building a long-term lunar base.
2. Why do the lunar soil particles from the far side stick together?
A. Because they contain a special sticky mineral.
B. Due to their rough surfaces and tiny size.
C. Because they were once melted by the sun's extreme heat.
D. Due to the presence of unseen water in the soil.
3. What can be inferred about the soil on the moon's near side?
A. Its particles are likely larger and smoother.
B. It is unsuitable for any future construction.
C. It has been exposed to more solar wind.
D. It contains fewer minerals than the far side.
4. The finding about the soil's texture is most critical for ______.
A. astronomers studying the moon's history
B. engineers designing future moon equipment
C. geologists analyzing the moon's mineral makeup
D. astronauts planning their walk routes on the moon
答案与解析:
文章大意:本文解释了中国科学家如何揭开月球背面土壤粘性之谜。研究发现,这是由于该区域的
土壤颗粒极其微小且形状尖锐,这种特性是由更剧烈的空间风化造成的。这一发现对于未来月球基地的
建设和设备设计具有重要的工程意义。
1. B

锐),最后阐述了这一发现对未来月球探索的重要工程意义。选项B “discuss the cause of sticky lunar soil
and its importance” (讨论粘性月壤的原因及其重要性) 最全面地概括了文章的核心内容。选项A(比较嫦
娥五号和六号任务)只是文章的引子,过于片面。选项C(论证月球背面更适合探索)文章并未提及。选
项D(描述建立月球基地的过程)超出了文章范围,文章只提到这一发现对建基地有帮助。
2. B
细节理解题。 根据文章第三段,“The answer...lies in the shape and size of the soil's tiny particles...the
particles from the far side are extremely small and have unusually sharp, rough edges. These unique features cause
the particles to stick together. The rough surfaces create more friction...because the particles are so tiny, they are
pulled together by weak natural forces.” 可知,土壤颗粒粘在一起的原因是其粗糙的表面和微小的尺寸。选
项B 准确地概括了这两点。选项A(含有特殊粘性矿物)与第二段中科学家排除了水分和磁性等常见原
因的信息不符。选项C(被太阳高温融化)与第四段提到的被微小陨石撞击和太阳风作用不符。选项D
(含有未发现的水)与第二段明确排除水分的信息直接矛盾。
3. A
推理判断题。 文章第二段提到,近侧土壤是“loose, sandy”(松散、多沙的),而远侧土壤是
“sticky and clumpy”(粘性、结块的)。第三段解释远侧土壤粘性的原因是颗粒“ extremely small and
have unusually sharp, rough edges”(极其微小且有异常尖锐、粗糙的边缘)。通过对比,我们可以合理推
断出,近侧土壤之所以松散,是因为其颗粒特性与远侧相反,即颗粒可能更大、更光滑。选项A 符合此
推断。选项B(不适合未来建设)过于绝对,文章未提及。选项C(暴露在更多太阳风下)与第四段“远
侧遭受了更多空间风化”的信息相反。选项D(矿物更少)文章没有对两地的矿物含量进行直接比较。
4. B
推理判断题。 文章最后一段明确指出,“Understanding this sticky soil is more than just solving a
scientific puzzle; it is a critical engineering challenge...Knowing its properties helps engineers design better
rovers, landing pads, and equipment for future lunar bases...”。这直接说明了该发现对于工程师设计未来月球
设备至关重要。选项B(为设计未来月球设备的工程师)是这一信息的直接体现。选项A(天文学家)、
C(地质学家)和D(宇航员)虽然也可能对此感兴趣,但文章明确强调了其在“工程挑战”和“设计设
备”方面的核心价值,因此B 选项是最佳答案。
Passage 3
Depression is a global mental health challenge affecting millions. While some existing treatments can offer
rapid relief, their use is often limited due to serious side effects and a lack of understanding of how they work. For
decades, the exact biological processes behind these powerful therapies have remained a mystery, preventing
doctors from fully using their benefits and managing their risks. This situation has made developing better
treatments a top priority for medical researchers.
Now, a breakthrough by Chinese scientists has shed light on this mystery. Using a new observation method,
they discovered a common mechanism behind two major therapies. They found that both treatments cause a sharp
and lasting increase in a key brain chemical in areas that control mood. This shared starting point was previously
unknown and represents a major step forward in understanding how to fight depression more effectively.
This discovery is particularly important for one of the treatments, a powerful medicine. The research shows it
works mainly by changing cell energy, not through a process previously thought to cause side effects like
unpleasant mental experiences. Based on this new understanding, the team has already developed new medicines.
In animal tests, these new drugs showed strong antidepressant effects with far fewer side effects, offering hope for
safer future treatments.
The research has also opened a door to non-drug treatments. Scientists discovered that a simple physical
method, a brief and controlled special breathing exercise, can also activate this brain chemical pathway. Animal
studies showed this method is both safe and effective, producing a powerful antidepressant effect without
medicine. This suggests a completely new, simple, and low-cost way to help people with depression.
Building on this finding, a treatment device based on the breathing technique is being developed. Initial tests
show it is safe and affordable. The team aims to complete clinical trials and introduce this new therapy to the
market in the coming years, promising a new era in the treatment of depression.

Passage 4
China's polar research team has completed a pioneering deep-sea mission, marking a first in cooperative
deep-sea missions involving manned submersibles(潜水器). The team returned to port after a 98-day expedition,
much of which was spent within the Arctic Circle. The journey was undertaken by the world’s first ice-breaking
support ship for manned deep-sea submersibles, Tansuo 3, carrying two China-developed submersibles,
Fendouzhe and Jiaolong. This significant mission was organized by leading national scientific institutions.
During the expedition, the team operated in the Arctic Ocean for 56 days, navigating through ice-covered
waters to conduct a series of scientific investigations. A key achievement was the first-ever cooperative operation
between the submersibles Jiaolong and Fendouzhe. They worked together on tasks like underwater searches and
filming. Furthermore, the team conducted the world's first manned deep-sea exploration of a previously unvisited
ridge in the Arctic's central basin, an area with over 80% sea ice coverage. Fendouzhe completed 32 dives,
operating effectively during the polar day and night, and in harsh(恶劣的) weather conditions.
This mission successfully proved the operational capabilities of the vessel and submersibles in polar ice-
covered regions. It led to major technological advancements and established new methods for operating
submersibles under extreme polar conditions. The team also pioneered a special mobile ice-diving model, where

Passage 5
A Chinese research team has created a highly important atlas that maps the connections between chemicals in
human blood and a wide range of diseases. This significant work provides a strong basis for the early discovery of
illnesses, predicting their development, and finding new medicines. The findings offer a valuable new tool for the
future of medical science.
The researchers carefully studied the links between hundreds of blood chemicals and thousands of human
characteristics and diseases. They found that these blood substances serve as key signs, reflecting the complex
effects of our genes, daily behaviors, and the environment on our health. The analysis identified tens of thousands
of significant connections, highlighting that problems with how the body processes fat have a widespread effect
across many different disease systems. This discovery suggests a common root for many seemingly unrelated
health issues.
One of the most critical discoveries is about the timeline of a disease's development. The study revealed that
for more than half of the important chemical signs, unusual levels in the blood could be found up to ten years
before a doctor could officially diagnose the illness. Furthermore, the researchers observed that these chemical
indicators go through major changes at two key points in a person's life: around the ages of 46 and 64. This insight
into timing is crucial for truly early intervention.
For practical use in healthcare, the team developed a chemical-based risk score. This score can be used to
help accurately diagnose 94 known diseases and predict the risk of 81 new ones. Among the many substances, a
few like creatinine and albumin were confirmed as especially powerful indicators of a person's health condition.
This system allows doctors to assess a patient's risk profile with greater accuracy.
Ultimately, this research marks a step forward in precision medicine. It offers a systematic way to detect
early warning signals of diseases by simply monitoring changes in blood chemicals. This enables doctors to
predict certain disease risks in advance. Based on an individual's unique chemical profile, physicians can then
create highly personalized plans for diet, exercise, and medication, achieving a new level of patient-centered care.

文章大意:本文主要介绍了中国如何利用现代科技来保护和传承其丰富的文化遗产。文章重点阐述
了国家研究基地在文物风险防控、修复保护、考古研究以及文化传播等方面发挥的关键作用,并强调了
人才培养和国际合作在这一领域的重要性。
1.考查介词。in the event of 是固定搭配,意为“如果,万一”,符合句意“万一发生地震时保护文
物”。
2.考查非限制性定语从句的关系词。此处关系词指代前面“一个最近的会议回顾了其成就”这整件
事,并在从句中作主语,故用which。
3.考查动词的时态和语态。句意是“像卫星和无人机这样的先进技术被用来……”,主语
technologies 是复数,与动词use 之间是被动关系,且描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时的被动语态,
故填are used。
4.考查词性转换。此处需要形容词来修饰名词materials。提示词profession 是名词,其形容词形式是
professional,意为“专业的”。
5.考查并列连词。前后两句是并列关系,描述两个不同的研究团队所做的贡献。用and 表示并列,或
用while 表示对比(“而”)均可符合逻辑。此处为并列连词考点。
6.考查词性转换。此处修饰过去分词copied 要用副词,故填perfectly。
7.考查非谓语动词。be central to doing sth.是固定用法,意为“对做某事至关重要”,其中to 是介
词,后跟名词或动名词,故填driving。
8.考查词性转换。make great achievements 是固定搭配,意为“取得巨大成就”。提示词achieve 是动
词,其名词形式是achievement,根据great 修饰可数名词复数的用法,此处应用复数形式achievements。
9.考查非谓语动词。此处用现在分词短语作结果状语,说明前文动作“建立了稳定的学术合作”所带
来的自然结果,bring 与其逻辑主语they 之间是主动关系,故填bringing。
10.考查冠词。此处特指“我们国家(中国)的声音”,是特指,故用定冠词the。
