Zhou Donglin is traveling during Spring Festival in Uganda, attempting to capture precious images of
mountain gorillas through her lens (镜头).
“I enjoy exploring animal communities and have tried to tell their tales. If these stories can move the
audience and touch their hearts, they will come to love animals. This love will correspondingly inspire them to
protect nature,” Zhou says. In December, Zhou’s photography work stood out from the more than 37,600 nature-
themed image and video submissions from across the world.
Zhou started reflecting on the meaning of life when she was bound to bed for six months following a car
crash in 2013. She realized she had been struggling to be a straight-A student to please her parents. “I was too busy
to try to figure out what I want,” she says.
With her MBA background, Zhou says it’s key to pick up a wealth of knowledge about animals before
getting into the field. “Nature photographers often use extremely long lenses, which are very heavy, and hiking in
the wilderness requires a lot of physical strength,” Zhou says. Endurance is also key — being able to handle
hunger, dirt and sometimes thirst.
The years Zhou has spent capturing nature and wildlife have not just given rise to tens of thousands of
valuable images but endeared her to the animals, motivating her to call attention to their protection.
In 2019, she worked with ornithologist (鸟类学家) Lin Qingxian from Xiamen University to set up Seeking
Wild, a nonprofit organization committed to raising public awareness of wildlife conservation through field
research, rescue efforts, and ecological photography. Additionally, Zhou held a personal photography exhibition,
with all proceeds going to natural conservation efforts.
“The images are more a source of materials for wildlife conservation, as what the eye sees is the most direct
and visually impactful,” Zhou explains of the establishment of Seeking Wild. “However, when it comes to follow-
up actions, I believe it requires the involvement of organizations that can institute practical measures.”
4.Why does Zhou share the stories of wildlife through photography?
A.To win international awards. B.To develop a career in ecology.
C.To engage audiences in nature protection.D.To stimulate audiences’ interest in animals.
5.What did Zhou realize after a car accident?
A.The importance of putting life in focus. B.The need to improve photographic skills.C.The urgency of building a strong body. D.The pride in being an outstanding student.
6.What does the underlined word “proceeds” in paragraph 6 refer to?
A.Donations. B.Profits. C.Works. D.Resources.
7.According to Zhou, what is the most essential for future actions?
A.Groups’ effective engagement. B.Public conservation awareness.
C.More exhibitions of wildlife images. D.Establishment of more organizations.

In a snowbound forest where shadows stretched like skeletal fingers, a cunning fox named Vixen and a
brutish wolf named Ragnar forged a tense alliance. Bound by necessity rather than loyalty, Vixen served as
Ragnar’s reluctant subordinate, her wit often sparing them both from ruin. Yet Ragnar’s greed and arrogance sowed
the seeds of their downfall.
One frigid morning, Ragnar snarled, “Fetch me food, or I’ll make a meal of you.” Vixen, her paws nimble on
the ice, led him to a farm where lambs frolicked in a pen. She slipped through a gap, returned with a bleating lamb,
and vanished into the trees. Ragnar devoured it, but his hunger remained. “More!” he demanded, charging into the
pen himself. His clumsy attack alerted the farmer, who beat him senseless with a pitchfork. Limping back, Ragnar
roared, “You betrayed me!” Vixen smirked, “You betrayed your own greed.”
The next day, Ragnar’s wounds festered, but his appetite raged. “Steal bread from the village,” he ordered.
Vixen complied, returning with six golden pancakes. Ragnar wolfed them down, then greedily raided the pantry,
smashing dishes and triggering a commotion. The farmer’s wife emerged, club in hand, and Ragnar fled with a
fractured rib. “Why did you let me fall?” he howled. Vixen replied, “Why did you not stop?”
On the third day, Ragnar’s strength ebbed, yet his gluttony burned brighter. “The butcher’s cellar holds salted
meat,” Vixen said, her voice honeyed. They slithered into the cellar, where Ragnar gorged until his belly bulged.
Meanwhile, Vixen paced, testing the exit’s width. “Why skulk about?” Ragnar grumbled. “Guarding our escape,”
she lied.
As dawn broke, the farmer descended the stairs. Vixen darted through the hole, but Ragnar, swollen with
meat, became wedged. The farmer’s axe fell once, twice — silence. Vixen watched from the shadows, then padded
into the woods, whispering, “A fool’s end is a fox’s triumph.”
24.What trait leads to Ragnar’s downfall?
A.His inability to adapt to harsh environments. B.His excessive greed and lack of self-control.C.His reliance on Vixen’s intelligence. D.His fear of humans.

A.She feels guilty for Ragnar’s death. B.She manipulated events to eliminate Ragnar.
C.She regrets their alliance. D.She believes Ragnar deserved his fate.
26.Why does Vixen test the exit’s width during the third heist?
A.To ensure Ragnar can escape quickly. B.To confirm her own escape route.
C.To delay the farmer’s arrival. D.To distract Ragnar from overeating.
27.What is the central theme of the story?
A.Loyalty prevails over betrayal. B.Intelligence outshines brute force.

On the morning of November 13, a graceful violin melody flowed along the Qingdao seashore, blending (融
合) perfectly with the rhythm of the ocean waves. The man playing the violin is Petar Kutin, a Bulgarian teaching
music at Yew Chung International School of Qingdao.
For Kutin, who has been extensively trained in Western music, Chinese music holds a special charm. He
skillfully combines Chinese and Western musical elements and works with Chinese musicians to create original
pieces. In one of his latest works, Kutin blends his violin with the erhu, alongside the sounds of frogs and birds,
creating a harmonious and moving composition.
“I believe that music is an incredibly powerful language that brings people together.” Kutin said. At Yew
Chung International School of Qingdao, this philosophy comes to life. To help his students with diverse
backgrounds overcome cultural shock and quickly adapt to the Chinese environment, Kutin arranges music pieces
tailored to their abilities. “When students perform together, it promotes teamwork and allows them to express both
their cultural identity and individuality. Playing together builds confidence, happiness, and a sense of belonging.
Music truly bonds the performers.” Kutin said.
Kutin also uses music to deliver meaningful messages to his students. He wrote the lyrics of a song about
frugality together with the students, explaining what frugality mean — reusing items instead of throwing them
unnecessarily, avoiding waste. They turned this message into a song and then into a music video, which they play
almost every week.
In addition to his work at school, Kutin composes music for social causes. He has created several pieces to
help people with mental disabilities relax and find comfort.“Music is constantly developing, and musicians must keep learning to grow.” he said. With a passion for
creating and sharing, Kutin aims to promote deeper connections between people and cultures, contributing to a
more harmonious and lively future through music.

In the tough neighborhoods of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Jeroen Koolhaas and Dre Urhahn completed some of
their most innovative street paintings. Koolhaas and Urhahn met as university students and began working together
professionally when Koolhaas was making a documentary film about hip-hop in Brazil’s favelas — the informal,
urban neighborhoods in which many of Brazil’s very low-income families live. While visiting these favelas, famous
for their crime and drug problems, the artists saw something different — potential. What if they could paint the old
houses and dirty buildings and turn them into art?
Most favelas in Brazil were built by the people who live in them as they moved to the cities in search of
work. They were built without any of the planning that makes cities functional and attractive. Koolhaas and Urhahn
wanted to do their paintings in the same way the favelas were built, using local people to paint and letting the
paintings be created without too much planning. First, they started spending a lot of time in Vila Cruzeiro, a favela
neighborhood. As local residents became excited about the project, Koolhaas and Urhahn began hiring local
workers to paint the houses they selected. They worked for 18 months, and the result was colorful neighborhood
paintings that cover dozens of buildings.
Critics of Koolhaas and Urhahn’s art projects say that painting such troubled neighborhoods does not addressthe real problems they face. Koolhaas and Urhahn agree. They don’t expect a painting to solve complex social and
economic issues. However, they believe that bringing colorful art into disadvantaged neighborhoods does
something else. It inspires the local residents and gives them pride in their community. It changes attitude.
So Koolhaas and Urhahn will continue to bring art to troubled communities. They have worked in Haiti and
Curacao and receive emails from interested cities every week. They hope their work will encourage kids to pursue
creative careers.

7.Which can best describe Koolhaas and Urhahn’s projects?
A.Creative and highly-sought. B.Influential and kid-centered.

(2025·福建漳州·二模)My teenage daughter signed up to run a 5K that Saturday morning, and I planned to return to bed after
dropping her off. I quickly grabbed some clothes and rushed out of the door with her. When we arrived and I saw
the crowd, a thought crossed my mind — I might miss her first event. And past experiences implied that this
likelihood was fairly high. There was a strange pull to join her somehow, even though I knew it was unlikely.
I hadn’t been physically active recently and was not dressed for a race. Anyhow, I pretended there had been
friends’ encouragement. I found myself registering for the race, telling myself I would just walk it. I tied my
sweatshirt around my waist and stuffed my keys in my pocket. When the gun went off, I ran along with everyone
else.
I quickly dropped back, and soon became dead last, which made me upset. The crowd vanished (消失) over
a hill, and I lost sight of my daughter. Only one other woman remained, who looked about 20 years older than me.
We began a series of running and walking. When she ran again, I couldn’t let her pass me, so I ran too. I managed
to pass her, giving me a ray of delight, and later I passed a group of women.
I continued to switch between running and walking until I passed one of my daughter’s classmates, and then
another. The course wound through Amish country and Amish children lined the route, watching us. I doubted
whether I could make it up the last hill, but I kept picking goals, such as a telephone pole or a mailbox, to run or
walk to. I even figured out that if I made my step distance long when I walked, I would cover more ground.
I finally crossed the finish line to find my daughter waiting for me. My face burned red, and my legs hurt,
but I was proud of both of us as we posed for a selfie (自拍) wearing our numbers.

Residing on Hainan, US-raised Xie Fei has established an extensive private museum, filled with his personal
collections. Items from NBA stars Michael Jordan and Kobe feature significantly in Xie’s Tianfu Sports Museum.
These items mark the beginning of his collection journey.
Around in 2002, he started his own business, a resort hotel highlighting local coffee and showcasing his
sports collections to appeal to tourists. Indeed, many tourists expressed an interest in the exhibition, leading to
eventually the official opening of his own museum. At that time, Xie, who was still not fluent in Mandarin, found
that the museum could be a bridge connecting him to others. His collection began to expand beyond the NBA,
embracing richer Chinese items. Since then, he has been searching for more Chinese sports items to add to his
collection.
As his valuable collection expanded, he began to feel more responsibility. He decided to donate his more
than 2,000 items to the government, while continuing to exhibit them for free in his museum. He funds the
museum’s maintenance with the proceeds from his hotel and often invites sports experts to hold activities there.
In recent years, he has frequently taken items from his collection to schools to teach children about the
history of Chinese sports. Xie also started collecting local sports memorabilia (纪念品), During this process, he

filling in the gaps. From the medal of Hainan’s first-ever Games to the traditional sports equipment of local Li and
Miao people, after several years of effort, Xie’s museum has been able to organize a special Hainan sports
exhibition, while also diving into more detailed historical research.
