    I've found walking painful since childhood, but I quickly learnt to3 life in a wheelchair. And this year, I quit my job to4 a year-long world journey. I contacted Guinness while planning and they said solo disability travel to 40+ countries in a year sets a record. I logged it in my mind as a potential5.

    In developed countries, accessibility for the disabled isn't as much of an6, but my first destination was Bali. I was7. My partner, Tony, encouraged me, sensing my nerves, "This has always been your dream."

    In Bali, I arranged for a driver to show me the island's sights.

    "I want to go to the very top," I told the driver.

    "The road doesn't go that far," he8.

    It was9. I knew the view there would be incredible.10, the driver and two locals carried me to the11! Rather than making me feel like a12, they smiled the whole way.

    After that, I traveled freely and visited 66 countries solo. I posted the13 to Guinness and, the next week, received a plain email: Your record has been14. The feeling of achievement was amazing.

    The Essential Wilderness First Aid Kit

    Imagine you're descending a rocky mountain trail when a sudden slip leaves you with a deep cut on your leg.. A well-stocked first aid kit, designed specifically for wilderness expeditions, can mean the difference between a manageable injury and a life-threatening situation.

    ●   Immediate Response Capability

    Carrying a wilderness first aid kit empowers you to take control of emergencies.. From cleaning wounds with antiseptic (消毒) wipes to keeping broken bones still with splints (夹板), having the right tools allows for critical initial treatment before professional help arrives.

    ● Tailored for Outdoor Risks

    Unlike basic home kits, wilderness versions contain supplies addressing unique outdoor risks.. In remote locations where medical assistance may be hard to come by in time, specialized items, like bleeding control bandages, blister treatments, and emergency blankets, count.

    ● Use of high-tech materials

    . Many weigh less than 1kg and compress to the size of a water bottle, ensuring they're never left behind due to their weight. Waterproof cases protect contents from rain and river crossings.

    High-quality kits range from $50-$150, less than many hiking boots. Considering the potential consequences of untreated injuries in remote areas, this investment proves invaluable. Some kits even include wilderness medicine guides for proper technique application.

    A wilderness first aid kit isn't just optional equipment — it's your frontline defense against nature's unpredictability. By anticipating risks and packing strategically, adventurers can explore with confidence knowing they're prepared for the unexpected.

    A. Investment potential

    B. Cost-Effective Preparedness

    C. The nearest clinic is hours away, and your phone has no signal.

    D. It transforms panic into purposeful action during critical moments.

    E. Water purification pills are more vital than bandages in survival situations.

    F. Modern super light fabrics make comprehensive kits surprisingly portable.

    G. Kits typically include snake bite kits and spider sting relievers for regional dangers.

  • 5、​​​​​​​Historically, a university's primary role has been to ensure students' outstanding performance academically, but higher education can also change lives by supporting their well-being. Despite growing evidence of the importance of students' well-being and an abundance of best practices, most institutions haven't yet prioritizedit as much as they do with enrollment, graduation and grades.

    A new study led by University of Maine researchers provides guidance on how institutions can support and improve students' well-being, and breaks down the various benefits for learners during and beyond their university career.

    The study defines well-being as a combined sense of belonging, agency, purpose, identity, citizen engagement and financial stability. Quoting a long-term investigation, researchers identified key student experiences that result in improved well-being later in life: working at a job or internship (实习); conducting a project that takes a semester or longer to complete; extensively participating in extracurricular (课外的) activities; having at least one professor who either personally cares about their students, and encourages them to pursue their goals or makes them excited to learn. "A wealth of evidence shows that student-centered practices can meaningfully support well-being. We hope this will encourage educators to consider their learning context," said Holly White, lead researcher.

    Researchers identified six guiding principles for improving students' well-being, among which are Research Learning Experiences (RLEs). "A unique feature of our RLEs is that they are open to all entering first-year students, no matter what prior experiences students may have had. Our early results on the positive impact of RLEs on students' overall well-being are very encouraging," said John Volin, the study co-author.

    "I think it's really important to recognize that we can support students' well-being and learning. These aspects are not contradictory or in a zero-sum situation. It also doesn't have to be one or the other," White said.

    (1)、What does the underlined word "it" in Para l refer to?
    A、Higher education. B、University's role. C、Academic performance. D、Students' well-being.
    (2)、What can we know about the study?
    A、RLEs target inexperienced students primarily. B、RLEs positively enhance students' well-being. C、Strict professor can improve students' well being. D、Most universities have put the outcome into practice.
    (3)、What do White's words in the last paragraph suggest?
    A、Supporting well-being is challenging. B、Learning outweighs students' well-being. C、Universities must prioritize students' well-being. D、Students' well-being and academics can go hand in hand.
    (4)、What is the best title for the text?
    A、Advocating RLEs in Higher Education B、Shaping Students' Future Success in Universities C、Enhancing Students' Well-Being in Higher Education D、Balancing Extracurricular activities and Well-Being in Universities
  • 6、​​​​​​​Carbon monoxide (CO) is best-known as a poison. Each year around 30,000 people worldwide die from exposure to the gas, which can be produced by cooking stoves or indoor fires. But could it also have something to offer the hard-pressed athletes looking for an edge?

    The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), which governs professional cycling, worries that it might. At a meeting on January 31st,2025, the UCI recommended that its bosses ban the use of carbon monoxide by riders on medical grounds. The UCI has even requested the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) to decide whether repeatedly breathing in carbon monoxide should be considered doping (兴奋剂).

    That a poisonous gas might be performance-enhancing is less surprising than it sounds. Hemoglobin (血红蛋白) attaches to oxygen to transport it throughout the body, but CO attaches to haemoglobin more strongly than oxygen does, preventing oxygen transport. While too much exposure can lead to asphyxiation (窒息), smaller doses can cause mild lack of oxygen. Extended lack of oxygen stimulates the bone marrow (骨髓) to increase red blood cell production, which offers benefits for endurance athletes. More red blood cells enhance the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity, enabling athletes to perform better over long distances.

    It indeed works in practice. In 2020 a group of researchers led by Walter Schmidt at the University of Bayreuth published a paper examining the effects of CO on bicycle athletes. They found that small doses given five times a day for three weeks led to a roughly 5% increase in the amount of haemoglobin in their blood. Levels of haemoglobin found in red blood cells is an important statistic for endurance athletes.

    Even more appealing, though, is the fact that the gas has legal uses. Indeed, CO is routinely used to keep track of riders' fitness. Moreover, all the equipment and supplies necessary to abuse the gas are already widely used. "It would be pretty easy for the riders to move the needle from just monitoring their fitness to performance enhancement," notes Walter Schmidt.

    (1)、What is the UCI's recommendation concerning the issue of CO?
    A、Opposing its abuse. B、Advocating its wide use. C、Canceling its restriction. D、Balancing its pros and cons.
    (2)、What can CO offer the hard-pressed athletes?
    A、Degrading their endurance. B、Boosting their performances. C、Reducing red blood cell production. D、Increasing their chances of asphyxiation.
    (3)、What is Para 3 mainly about?
    A、The reasons for CO's risks. B、The effects of CO in practice. C、The chemical composition of CO. D、The medical grounds for CO's benefits.
    (4)、What is Walter Schmidt's tone regarding the issue of CO in the last paragraph?
    A、Confident. B、Hopeful. C、Concerned. D、Indifferent.
  • 7、​​​​​​​On August 6,2024, Kauli Vaast, the French surfing talent, claimed the gold medal at the Paris Olympics, emerging as the Olympic champion.

    Born in Tahiti in 2002, Vaast developed a deep connection with the ocean from an early age. Vaast's daily training was nothing short ofgrueling. In the early morning light, he'd carry his board down to the shore, where he'd spend hours paddling through the surf, building up his strength and endurance. He'd practice his takeoffs, dropping in on waves with extreme precision, repeating the same move over and over again until it was second nature. He'd also work on his balance, standing on unstable boards on land, mimicking the movements he'd make while riding a wave, to improve his stability in the water.

    The 2024 Olympics was hosted at Tahiti, a French overseas territory and home to one of the world's most perfect yet fearsome waves: Teahupo'o. Surfing the challenging Teahupo'o served as the ultimate stage for Vaast to showcase his skills. In the 30-minute final, as the highly anticipated wave rolled in, he undeniably felt at home. His first wave was a breathtaking display of pure ability. He dropped in gracefully and smoothly pumped through a colossal frontside barrel(正手浪管), impressing the judges with a stunning score of 9.5. His Australian competitor, Jack Robinson, had a ride but struggled to match the depth and duration of Vaast's wave. As the competition progressed, Vaast caught another impressive barrel wave, earning an additional score of 8.17. With time running out and no suitable waves presenting themselves to Robinson, Vaast's years of persistent training paid off.

    "I don't really realize it, but I just made history," said Vaast afterward. "I can't be prouder to represent Tahiti and France at home." Vaast exclaimed, his eyes glistening with joy and pride.

    (1)、What does the underlined word "grueling" in Parap probably mean?
    A、Thrilling. B、Boring. C、Exhausting. D、Engaging.
    (2)、What was the key factor contributing to Vaast's victory in the Olympic final?
    A、The favorable weather conditions. B、His competitor's lack of experience. C、The support from his fans in the audience. D、His intense training and exceptional skills.
    (3)、Which of the following best describes Kauli Vaast?
    A、Noble and innovative. B、Modest and talented. C、Considerate and proud. D、Diligent and passionate.
    (4)、What message can we learn from Kauli Vaast's story?
    A、No risks, no gains. B、You reap what you sow. C、Time and tide wait for no man. D、Every cloud has a silver lining.

  • 9、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。

    In a lively city, there was a small bookstore hidden between two tall buildings. It wasn't the most attractive place, but it had an undeniable charm. The owner, David, had inherited (继承) the store from his grandfather. Every day, he opened its creaky (吱嘎的) doors and greeted his customers with a smile, even though his heart was heavy.

    David had been struggling with his business for months. Online stores had taken over the market, and fewer people walked into his store. He had always believed in the magic of physical books, but with bills piling up and his savings running low, he was beginning to lose hope.

    One rainy afternoon, as David sat behind the counter, staring at the closed sign on the door, a young woman entered. Her name was Sophie, and she was new to the city. She had heard about the bookstore from a friend and decided to check it out.

    Sophie wandered through the passages, running her fingers along the spines of the books. There was something warm and comforting about the place — despite its worn-out shelves and faded sign outside. After a while, she picked up a book on gardening — a topic she had recently become passionate about — and brought it to the counter. David greeted her, still burdened by his worries.

    "You seem like you're really into gardening," he said softly.

    Sophie smiled. "Yes, it's been such a peaceful escape for me lately."

    David rang up the book and said, "I hope it helps you grow your garden. Plants are like people. They need care, but they can really bloom if you give them the right environment."

    Before leaving with the book, Sophie turned to him. "There's something special about this place. I hope you keep it open for a long time."

    David watched as she stepped out into the rain, her smile lingering (萦绕) in his mind. That night, for the first time in weeks, he didn't feel the heavy weight of worry. Instead, he thought about Sophie's words. Maybe it wasn't about making the store bigger or more popular. Maybe it was about creating an environment where people felt welcomed — and that was enough to keep going.

    注意:

    1.续写词数应为150左右;

  • 13、Fostering Happiness: Strengthening Your Reward Sensitivity

    In our busy lives, we often pass up chances for joy. We might skip a birthday party or cancel a lunch date, thinking it's not worth the trouble. But this usually makes us feel even more down later. The secret to changing this is to strengthen"reward sensitivity".

    Reward sensitivity is like a muscle. It can grow stronger with regular practice. When we train ourselves to notice and value positive emotions, we can become happier. They often struggle to feel pleasure, a condition called anhedonia (unable to experience joy). A 2023 study showed that therapy focusing on positive emotions helps mental health more than treatments just reducing negative symptoms.

    A great way to strengthen reward sensitivity is to plan a small, fun activity daily. Describe it in detail, focusing on the feelings and experiences. This practice, known as"savoring (尽情享受)," makes positive feelings stronger and gives you more motivation to seek similar experiences in the future.

    . Instead of simply labeling an experience"good", use more precise words like"thrilled,""inspired, or "peaceful". Sharing positive moments with others can make these moments even more meaningful, strengthening social bonds and spreading happiness.

    It's important to remember that embracing happiness doesn't mean ignoring pain. By using these strategies in your daily life, you can cultivate a stronger sense of reward sensitivity and change how you experience and pursue happiness.

    A. Afterward, take a moment to recall the experience.

    B. It's the ability to find and truly enjoy positive experiences.

    C. We often avoid such activities, which make our mood decline.

    D. This is especially important for those with depression or anxiety.

    E. This practice helps you better understand and enjoy positive feelings.

    F. Despite life's challenges, feeling joy helps restore balance and toughness.

    G. Beyond savoring, expanding your emotional vocabulary can also help.

  • 14、Nations with large amounts of wind and solar in their power grids (电网) are particularly exposed to rising energy bills due to sharp increases in the gas price. The relationship between decarbonisation and swings in prices has been a controversial (有争议的) issue as governments consider clean energy strategies, but an analysis of power prices has now provided evidence to inform the debate.

    Vast quantities of wind and solar capacity have been introduced across Europe in recent years, but these power sources are intermittent, generating electricity only when winds blow or the sky is cloudless.

    Gas power plants, which can be switched on and off relatively easily, are frequently relied on to provide power when renewable generation is low. But gas is often the most expensive source of power, and electricity market rules mean the most expensive generator sets the price for the entire market.

    Raúl Bajo-Buenestado at the University of Navarra and his colleagues found nations with more wind and solar in their power systems were more vulnerable (易受影响) to natural gas price shocks. Spain, for example, has large volumes of solar power and is particularly sensitive to power price changes. "If you have natural gas, wind and solar, this is going to make the perfect cocktail for you to be vulnerable," says Bajo-Buenestado.

    It is the need for flexible generation alongside wind and solar that is the issue. Bajo-Buenestado points out that other nations with low-carbon power grids, such as Norway and France, rely on hydropower and nuclear technology, which are reliable generators. "We don't see a clear correlation between decarbonisation and sensitivity to natural gas price changes," he says.

    Solving the problem will require nations to replace gas as the back-up fuel of choice. One answer is for grid operators to push the power system to become better able to absorb peaks and valleys in generation. "The underlying message is that getting a flexible system is now as important as building renewables," says Michael Grubb at University College London.

    (1)、What does the controversial issue in the first paragraph refer to?
    A、How rising gas prices will affect power grids. B、Which countries may face higher energy bills. C、What should be included in clean energy strategies. D、Whether carbon cuts are linked to varying power prices.
    (2)、What does the underlined word "intermittent" in paragraph 2 probably mean?
    A、Faulty. B、Costly. C、Unstable. D、Inefficient.
    (3)、Why is natural gas still needed in high-renewable-energy systems?
    A、It helps lower energy costs. B、It can quickly fill gaps in supply. C、It ensures consistent market prices. D、It is a key driver of energy innovation.
    (4)、What might be an ideal combination of power sources?
    A、Solar and gas. B、Nuclear and gas. C、Solar and wind. D、Nuclear and wind.

    Ethan had always lived by checklists — precise and detailed. At school, he double-checked his answers, rewrote notes in perfect handwriting, and organized his pens by size and color. But the world often refused to follow his plan. A missed question, a group project gone off track, or even a messy desk could send him into hours of self-blame.

    During a school event, he was struck by what was advertised on the poster of a pottery class, "Join us. Create, relax, and just be yourself." He eagerly signed up, hoping it might ease the anxiety that had wrapped him around for long.

    On the first day of their pottery workshop, Ethan arrived earlier, and spent almost an hour arranging and rearranging all the tools, the wheel, carving knives, brushes, and measuring cups... He carefully lined them up like surgical instruments. He had even watched twelve instructional videos the night before, determined to get everything right. Yet somehow, he couldn't even make a simple bowl — his third attempt of the day had just exploded in the kiln (窑).

    He wrote on his notebook with precision, "Attempt 3,400g stoneware, 21% water, Collapsed at 4.2cm height." Maybe the curve (弧线) was just not standard enough, Ethan thought.

    Ms. Alvarez, their instructor, approached Ethan and said with a warm smile, "Beginner's tip. Don't worry about making it perfect." Ethan froze. The word "Perfect" hung in the air, sharp and cold, bringing back memories of last year's science fair — when sleepless nights and silent tears had ended not in praise, but in a crushing headache.

    Around him, the others were making uneven bowls and plates with funny-looking curves. Some were even laughing at their own "disasters". No one seemed to mind getting it wrong. Ethan looked down at his own hands, still dusted with clay. Ethan forced a smile, turned to the soft clay on his table, and began kneading (揉黏土), ready for a fourth attempt.

  • 18、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

    In the dining hall of Shenzhen University, students eagerly line up for a unique delicacy: rich bowls of black-bone chicken soup. This flavorful dish traces its roots to an (innovation) AI farming project in Chishui, Guizhou, a region where black-bone chicken farming (be) a valued tradition for over 300 years. Despite its long history, the practice has faced (challenge), including disease, predator attacks, and high labor demands.

    (address) these issues, Shenzhen University students partnered with the local government to develop an Al-based system. (adopt) cameras and micro-devices, this smart technology tracks each chicken's movements. When a chicken's steps fall below 1,000, the system warns farmers to check signs of illness. It also detects wild animals, helping to reduce losses from predator attacks.

    After just six months, production (boost) by 30%, with over 60,000 chickens added. In appreciation, Chishui farmers gifted hundreds of chickens to the university, students turned into "Al chicken soup" for the university community, allowing everyone to enjoy the fruits of this technological achievement.

    Reflecting on the project, Shenzhen University Vice President Zhang Xiaohong highlighted the (integrate) of academia, industry, research, and innovation. "Through this partnership, our students have developed practical skills, gained hands-on experience, grown into AI professionals ready to make a meaningful impact."

  • 19、All along, I've lived by others' definitions of the "right" way.

    As a kid, I was short and1. When I played basketball, I had to put my tiny body behind the ball and throw it underhand at the hoop (篮筐). Kids laughed and called my2 style "grandma shot." I looked strange, but I3 every time. I won multiple free throw competitions using my "grandma shot", so I4 it. But my victories came with great5 — I hadn't done it the "right" way.

    But did success only count if it looked the way others6? Years later, when I closed my eyes, I recalled standing on the free throw line at 10 years old,7 the noise, and focusing on the basket. My "grandma shot"8, and everyone cheered. The way I shot was odd, but it did9 the rules.

    Suddenly, I realized I'd spent my life letting the "right" way10 my achievements. I was a freelancer (自由职业者) who doesn't have a stable income, and I'd always felt I was doing something11. However, I earned scholarships, built businesses, and shaped my life with12 steps. Now I know it's not the13 that matters, but the joy you find throughout the journey. There's no one right or wrong way.14, there are countless paths. There's no15 in that — sometimes, it leads to great success.

  • 20、We often fall into the trap of assuming rational (理性的) thought is naturally superior to intuitive (直觉的) responses. In truth, we should find agreement between what our heart wants and what our reason says.

    Rational thinking proves particularly valuable in certain situations. Without it, we might rely too heavily on emotions, leading to poor decisions. Studies confirm that people who think rationally tend to perform better in both academic and professional settings. Moreover, it helps individuals analyze complex problems, allow for better planning and make well-informed choices.

    People who are more analytic are seen less approachable, which may make them seem distant or unfeeling. As a result, they might struggle to build close relationships or communicate warmth in social situations.

    Intuitive thinking, though sometimes imperfect, shows impressive effectiveness in many everyday situations. Chess masters instantly recognize strong moves, firefighters make life-saving decisions through instinct, and artists create through sudden inspiration — none of which could be achieved through slow, step-by-step analysis. These examples remind us that intuition is not the opposite of reason.

    In our modern world of constant information, the ability to use both thinking styles becomes especially valuable. Life is not a problem to be solved by logic alone, nor a feeling to be trusted blindly. In the end, to live well is to think with both the precision of a scientist and the grace of an artist — calculating when needed, but never silencing the inner voice that says, "This just feels right."
     

    A. This, however, is not the whole picture.

    B. It allows us to weigh evidence objectively.

    C. It's experience that becomes quick and automatic.

    D. Wisest decisions sing when reason and intuition harmonize.

    E. Surprisingly, logical thinking promotes emotional intelligence.

    F. However, sometimes intuition can be more effective than reasoning.

    G. This black-and-white view overlooks the complexity of human thought.
