3、 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。
Whenever Abigail opened the door to her aunt's place for an after-school visit, she was greeted with the sight of her 3-year-old niece, sitting on the floor drawing with crayons. "She's obsessed (着迷的)," said her aunt."Gosh, I'm envious of a 3-year-old then," Abigail thought to herself.
Every day, rubbing the sleep from her eyes, Abigail would go over to look at herself in the mirror, thinking the same thing: I am just so…ordinary. It all started once she entered middle school, where her grades in all subjects were OK but not great, and she couldn't sing or dance that well, or play sports. She wasn't even good at making jokes as she was so shy. As she continued to go down the same mind spiral (漩涡) of "you're not good enough, what kind of job could you get in the future being someone so ordinary?", she checked the clock and rushed out the door to get to school on time.
Along the way, she saw Peter and Sally walking ahead of her. Two of the class's top students, they were just so smart and dedicated. Peter always stayed behind after math class to continue working on the equations (方程式). He was, like her niece was with drawing, obsessed and talented.
A few mornings later in class, something seemed a bit off with Abigail's teacher, Mr Fry. He was normally quite active, moving quickly from the whiteboard to the podium (讲台) to explain some new knowledge points. But that morning, Abigail noticed that he seemed slower, not very with it. Then, as he asked the students to copy down a math equation, Mr Fry began shaking and then started to fall. Immediately, Abigail rushed from her sea t in the fourth row, managing to catch him just in time. He had fainted. "Someone go get the head teacher now!" yelled Abigail in a loud, clear voice. Fifteen minutes later, Abigail and her classmates watched out the classroom window at Mr Fry being wheeled across the parking lot on a stretcher (担架) to be put into an ambulance.
After two weeks off, Mr Fry was back, entering the classroom again to a round of applause from the students. His presence brought a sense of relief and normalcy to the room, easing their worry about his sudden illness.
注意:
1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As soon as the lunch bell rang, Mr Fry pulled Abigail aside.
"Extraordinary", the word echoed in Abigail's mind as walked home from school that day.

5、 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。
According to one legend, dumplings first appeared during the Han Dynasty. (rough) 1800 years ago, the story goes, a physician named Zhang Zhongjing returned to his hometown during a cold winter. He found his fellow villagers with frostbitten ears and created a new dish to help them warm up. The ingredients he chose for their warming (comprise) of button, herbs, and spices. The doctor wrapped them pieces of dough and folded the pieces to resemble tiny ears. Dumplings (continue) to take off and diversify since then. Typically (fill) with meat or vegetables, the simple bites are distinguished by their pleated (起褶皱的), wheat dough wrappers. They're often served for the Chinese New Year, though not because they look like crescent moons (新月). Eating them is believed (bring) prosperity in the new year. Traditionally, if you want to wish someone good fortune in China, you feed dumplings with a coin hidden inside and gets this coin will be lucky in the coming year. Making dumplings together with the whole family creates a unique, (harmony) atmosphere. Today, Jiaozi is still must in winter in most parts of northern China, especially during the Spring Festival. No words can precisely describe Chinese people's affection for dumplings, as the food has already become a symbol of home and (warm).

7、 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When you were at school, were you ever told to stop daydreaming and concentrate? It was easy for your mind to wander if you weren't interested in what you were learning or if you had better things to think about. But understanding how to do it, and knowing what is distracting you, can help.
Scientists have looked at what makes us delay and found a number of ways to help us stay in the zone. Research by Science Focus magazine found silence is best for concentration, or a gentle background music is great! It also found turning off notifications on your phone, or switching it off altogether, removes a major distraction and helps us focus on the task at hand.
Psychologists and neuroscientists are increasingly interested in our ability to settle down and have looked at what we can change inside our head to make us concentrate. An article for BBC Future by Caroline Williams says that "Attention Researcher Nilli Lavie of University College London has found that making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power and leaves the brain nothing left to process distractions." So, keeping your mind busy might be the answer.
These include making a list or timetable of the tasks you have to do, finding a workspace where you're not attracted by other things, or chewing some gum! It's possible the movement in your mouth occupies parts of the brain that might otherwise get distracted.
But according to Science Focus magazine, distraction isn't all bad. "If we were always so focused that we never got distracted, we'd miss potential changes, such as threats, in our environment. ."
A. Distraction is vital for survival.B. Staying focused can avoid dangers.
C. Performing visual tasks makes us concentrate.
D. One of the most obvious things is removing noise.
E. Staying focused can still be a challenge in adult life.
F. There are more practical tips to keeping your mind focused.
G. Another possible cure for a short attention duration is brain training.

8、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
"Having the world at our fingertips" is a metaphor often used when we put our hands on information technology, like smartphones and computers. This is a good metaphor. But what is much better is how we use our hands to make things done.
Put one hand flat on a surface, palm down, and you might be able to make out the outline of 14 short bones in your thumb and fingers, in addition to 5 longer ones in your palm that are jointed to your wrist. These bones give each hand its rigid, knuckled structure. Together they're critical components of the anatomical (解剖的) architecture that allows your hand to move. At each of your fingertips there's an ever-growing, translucent plate of fibrous protein, otherwise known as a nail. Although they're nice for decoration, your nails protect and enhance your sensitivity to touch, too.
Imagine squeezing a piece of paper between your thumb and index finger, for example. We use this type of forceful pad-to-pad precision grasping without thinking about it, and literally in no time. Yet it was a breakthrough in human evolution. Other primates (灵长目动物) exhibit some kinds of precision grasps in the handling and use of objects, but not with the kind of efficiency that our hand does.
With a unique combination of traits, the human hand shaped history. No question, stone tools couldn't have become a keystone of human technology without hands that could do the job, along with a nervous (神经的) system that could regulate and coordinate the necessary signals. Even for those who have never attempted to make a spear tip or arrowhead from a rock, it's obvious that it would require strong grasps, constant rotation and repositioning, careful strikes with another hard object. And even for those who have done so, it can be a bloody business.
Of course, the most common object that people touch nowadays is a screen. And the tap-tap-tap movement of our fingers is a unique human ability, as no other primate can move their fingers as rapidly and independently as we do. Here again, we can thank the extraordinary human brain given that normal finger tapping requires the functional integrity of different parts of our central nervous system.
(1)、What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A、The structure of human hands. B、The function of human hands. C、The movement of human hands. D、The number of bones in human hands.(2)、Why are nails important for our hands?A、Because they make our hands more beautiful. B、Because they help us hold things more tightly. C、Because they are a necessary part of the structure of our hands. D、Because they protect our fingers and increase our sense of touch.(3)、What does the underlined word "coordinate" in Paragraph 4 mean?A、Detect. B、Produce. C、Integrate. D、Interpret.(4)、The author writes this passage to ____.A、introduce the structure and function of human hands B、compare the differences between human hands and primates' hands C、emphasize the importance of human hands in history and modern technology D、show how the human brain contributes to the unique ability of finger tapping -
9、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
For future humans to survive long periods on Mars, growing food on the planet is a must. It would be too costly and risky to rely upon rocket deliveries to meet the food needs of settlers. With this in mind, scientists are exploring ways to improve space farming.
Researchers work in a controlled greenhouse. They have identified a way that could improve crop production in simulated (模拟的) Martian soil, with different crops grown together. The method is called "intercropping", invented by ancient Maya farmers in what is now Central America.
In their experiments, the researchers grew cherry tomatoes, peas and carrots together in small, round containers. Tomatoes grown in this way produced about double the amount of tomatoes grown alone—or "monocropped"—in the same simulated Martian soil. The tomatoes were also bigger. They flowered and matured earlier, gave more fruit per plant and had thicker stems. The amounts of peas and carrots did not increase with intercropping.
Rebeca Goncalves, an astrobiologist and lead writer of the study, said the research is the first time the intercropping technique was used in space soil, and that it was a big find—one that they could now build further research on. The crops were grown in simulated Martian regolith, a soil with no organic matter —a near-perfect physical and chemical match to real Martian soil.
The researchers added useful bacteria and nutrients. They also controlled the gases, temperature and humidity inside the greenhouse to match conditions expected in a Martian greenhouse. Intercropping involves growing plants with properties that could help each other grow. The method makes the best use of resources including water and nutrients.
The researchers said the tomato plants in intercropping may have benefited from being close to the pea plants. That is because the peas are good at turning nitrogen from the air, with the help of bacteria introduced into the soil, into an important nutrient. Overall, the tomatoes, peas and carrots grew well, though not as well as in Earth soil in the same greenhouse.
(1)、What is the benefit of intercropping mentioned in the article?A、Increasing crop yield. B、Preventing soil pollution. C、Decreasing sunlight exposure. D、Reducing water consumption.(2)、What role did the peas play in the process of intercropping?A、Enhancing growth of carrots. B、Increasing fruit production in tomatoes. C、Transforming nitrogen into a crucial nutrient. D、Improving the variety of bacteria introduced into the soil.(3)、What was the key finding of the research?A、Carrots benefited the most from intercropping. B、The crops grew as well as they would in Earth soil. C、The presence of peas helped tomatoes produce more fruit. D、Peas and carrots showed significant growth improvement in intercropping.(4)、What is the main idea of the article?A、Intercropping is developed for growing crops in space. B、The study found Intercropping resulted in higher tomato yields. C、Scientists are struggling to find ways to improve crop production in space. D、Researchers successfully grew some plants in imitated Martian soil using intercropping. -

Professor Zhang Liangren from the School of History at Nanjing University has found a unique and engaging way to transmit historical and archaeological knowledge to the public—through food vlogs. His approach, combining culinary (食物的) delights with fascinating historical insights, has taken China's social media by storm, attracting a wide audience and gathering praise for its innovative method of storytelling.
Before digging into food vlogging, Professor Zhang Liangren usually dined at the school cafeteria or restaurants near his community. However, since he started making food vlogs in the summer of 2023, he has been exploring the world extensively, dining at a variety of restaurants that were previously unknown to him. Zhang Liangren frankly admits that he is far from being a qualified "foodie": He enjoys good food, but has not yet reached the point of searching everywhere for it. What truly led him onto the path of a food vlogger was his passion for archaeology. While watching Zhang taste the food, viewers can listen to him explaining the historical stories behind the dishes. Although the food cannot be immediately tasted, the spiritual nourishment (营养) of archaeology has satisfied the taste buds (味蕾) of netizens, who have expressed their satisfaction.
Speaking of the situation at the beginning of filming, Zhang Liangren frankly admitted, "Because I rarely did these things before, I was quite uncomfortable in front of the camera at first. My Mandarin was not very good either, so my speech and movements were very awkward. But gradually, I got used to it, and overall, it's much better than before."
As for which places he prefers to visit for check-ins, Zhang Liangren states that he prefers shops with a certain level of fame, "It must be down-to-earth, the kind of place that caters to the common people." He mentioned that he usually chooses small stands or shops with a long history and good reputation. Sometimes he also selects based on festivals, tasting the food while narrating the methods of preparation and the cultural significance behind the dishes.
(1)、What is most Chinese audiences' attitude to Professor Zhang's food vlogs?A、Supportive. B、Critical. C、Indifferent. D、Hopeful.(2)、Why does Professor Zhang become a food vlogger?A、Because he is a competent "foodie". B、Because the netizens like his vlogs. C、Because he is crazy about archaeology. D、Because he wants to share various food.(3)、What kind of shops will Professor Zhang choose for his vlogs?A、Small shops full of influencers. B、Little-known small stands or shops. C、Fancy stores with good reputation. D、Small shops with century-old brands.(4)、What can best describe Professor Zhang?A、Caring and talented. B、Creative and devoted. C、Intelligent and generous. D、Passionate and humble. -

A Towering Achievement
Burj Khalifa, a tower in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is the world's tallest structure. The 162-story building, which opened in 2010, stands over 2,717 feet tall. Seen from above, the tower has a Y-shaped design. Its three tall, narrow wings are joined in the middle. Like the legs of a tripod (三脚架), each wing is supported by the other two.
A Wheel Winner
About 15 miles from the world's tallest building stands the world's tallest Ferris wheel, Ain Dubai. Also called an observation wheel, Ain Dubai stands 820 feet tall. Each of the 48 cabins can carry 40 people for spectacular views of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Before construction, support columns had to be driven 115 feet down through the earth to reach bedrock.
Extreme Ups and Downs
The world's tallest roller coaster is Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure. At 456 feet, the peak of the ride towers over nearby Jackson, New Jersey. A 500-foot-tall crane was needed to place the final section at the top. Like many weight-bearing structures, the tower makes use of the most stable geometric (几何的) shape, the triangle.
