I first saw the earth —— the whole earth from the shuttle Challenger in 1984. The view takes your breath away and fills you with childlike wonder. That's why every shuttle crew has to clean nose prints off their space raft's windows several times a day.
An incredibly beautiful tapestry (织锦) of blue and white, tan, black and green seems to glide beneath you at an elegant, stately pace. But you are actually going so fast that the entire map of the world spins before your eyes with each 90-minute orbit. After just one or two laps, you feel, maybe for the first time like a citizen of a planet. All the colors and patterns you see—— the visible evidence of the complex working of the natural systems that make our planet habitable — seem both vast and precise, powerful and yet somehow fragile.
You see volcanoes spewing smoke, hurricanes roiling the oceans and even fine tendrils’ of Saharan dust reaching across the Atlantic.
You also see the big, gray smudges of fields, paddies and pastures, and at night you mar vel at the lights, like brilliant diamonds, that reveal a mosaic of cities, roads and coastlines — impressive signs of the hand of humanity. Scientists tell us that our hand is heavy, that we are wiping out of other species at an unprecedented rate and probably transforming our climate.
Will the immense power of global systems withstand the impact of humanity Or is it possible that our collective actions will change the nature of our planet enough to cripple its ability to support life
I no longer believe that we can wait for all the scientific data needed to answer these questions conclusively. We must recognize immediately what it means to be citizens of this planet.
It means accepting the obligation to be the stewards of the earth's life-giving capacities. As homeowners, we wouldn't neglect or damage our houses until they weren't fit to live in. Why would we do that with our planet
24. What does the writer want to express in Paragraph 1
A. They are awe d by the view of the earth. B. They are homesick in the space shuttle.
C. They feel scared flying in the outer-space. D. They feel excited to explore the universe.

A. Providing data for the writer's argument. B. Summarizing the main idea of the text.
C. Setting the stage for further discussion. D. Introducing different ideas on human impact.
26. According to the last paragraph, which of the following statement does the writer agree with
A. It's not clear what humans can do to nature
B. We must act now to take care of nature before it's too late
C. Human beings are not the only creature of the earth
D. The earth is strong enough to support more lives.
27. What is the best title of the text
A. A Glimpse of Home B. Going Green with Our Earth
C. Flying to the Future D. My Experience as an Astronaut
C
Uninvited opinions about someone's marriage, their constant failures or whatever just happened in the bathroom are all clues you' ve got an Oversharer on your hands. Whether they' re telling too much or asking for details you' re not comfortable sharing, this all-too common persona has no boundaries.
“The discomfort you feel comes from a difference of standards about what topics of conversation are OK,” says Wisner. “What they consider to be acceptable, need-to-know information is different from what it is for you.”
At the same awkward time, the Oversharer is only trying to get closer to you by revealing more about themselves — and hoping you' ll do the same. “We tend to label these people as overly-curious, invasive(侵入的) or rude,” notes Gerber, “but they really just want to be liked and accepted.”
To satisfy the Oversharer, and meanwhile reject endless TMI ( too-much-information), consider sharing something else —— still personal but less invasive —— that satisfies their urge to connect. When they really cross the line, don't be shy. Say something that indicates your boundary is being crossed. But you don't have to declare them to be rude or insist that they change their ways immediately. “OMG, that's private!” says everything, and you' ll never have to bring it up again.
A compliment (称赞) also works wonders with an Oversharer, adds Gerber, because it refocuses the conversation in their direction while subtly resetting your boundary.
To my nosy friend who asks me when I plan to have a baby, for example, I will give this wise response next time:“You made having kids look so easy! How'd you do it ” Then nod and smile, nod and smile. MaybeI won't have another baby in this life, but at least I' ll be ready to face an Oversharer—— or any of the challenging people it takes to make a world.
28. What is the function of the first paragraph
A. Identifying the clues of an unpleasant talk. B. Stressing the importance of boundaries.
C. Shaping the image of an Oversharer. D. Presenting different opinions about sharing.
29. Why are Oversharers so interested in talking about private issues
A. They want sympathy from others. B. They long for closer connections with others.
C. They are curious about others' sufferings. D. They see it as a way to break the ice.
30. What is suggested if Oversharers cross your line
A. Declaring your boundaries. B. Demanding an apology.
C. Ignore their comments. D. Criticizing their rudeness.
31. What is the purpose of the author's response in the last paragraph
A. To check her friend's boundary. B. To shift the topic to her friend's direction.
C. To learn from her friend's experience. D. To show admiration for her friend.
D
Many people have wondered why children believe in things like Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, thinking that children's minds are easily fooled. However, developmental psychology offers a different perspective.
A study published in Developmental Psychology explores how children react to ideas that go against what they usually think and if they check these ideas against what they expect. This way of checking, known as the“empirical stance,” is evident by the time children reach elementary school.
The study involved nearly 200 children aged 3 to 8 from Chinese schools. Each child was presented with five differently sized objects made from painted Russian dolls. The children naturally assumed that the smallest doll was the lightest and the largest the heaviest. When asked to identify the heaviest object, most children chose the largest one. An adult then either agreed with the children's choice or made a claim that the smallest doll was the heaviest. The researchers observed whether the children would change their minds or test the adult's claim by comparing the weights of the dolls.
Initially, children seemed to trust the adult's word, with only a small percentage insisting on their original belief. However, when given the opportunity to explore the dolls, elementary school children who had received the surprising claim systematically tested it by comparing the smallest and largest dolls. This exploration allowed them to generate evidence that could contradict the adult's claim.
These findings suggest that while children are willing to trust an adult's surprising claims, their acceptance is temporary. By elementary school, they systematically test such claims by seeking new evidence, which they then use to update their beliefs.
The study's implications extend beyond childhood. Most adults accept complex concepts, such as th existence of electrons, based on the testimony (证词) of others rather than personal experience.
So while children may learn about the magic of Santa Claus from adults, adults might similarly hav something to learn from elementary school children: most of us would do well to adopt an empirical stan( more often than we currently do.
32. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The theoretical basis of the study. B. The conclusion of the study.
C. The significance of the study. D. The methodology of the study.
33. Which child's response matches the empirical stance
A. Taylor believes what the teacher says no matter what.
B. Jordan thinks the earth is flat because his father says so.
C. Maya suspects there are monsters living in trees as the story says.
D. Emma assumes the watermelon is sweet and then tastes it.
34. What lesson could adults learn from children
A. Learning from their own experience.
B. Never trusting anyone.
C. Rejecting complex concepts.
D. Counting on others' testimony.
35. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To highlight the importance of adult's role in children's education and growth.
B. To clarify a misunderstanding about elementary school students' learning ability.
C. To advocate for a more empirical approach to bclief formation across all ages.
D. To persuade adults to help children rid themselves of wrong ideas about the world.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Every year at this harvest time, you are likely to read articles about the promise that the average family can save money by growing their own fruit and vegetables. 36
So can your average home gardener really compete on price against the economies of scale of industrial agriculture 37 Say you want to start with potatoes in a household container. In the UK, these cost around 75. Given potatoes in my supermarket are 0.90 per kilogram, you would have to produce at least 83 kg to break even. Assuming you get similar output as the professionals, a 60×60 cm container would only give you around 2 to 3 kg per year. So at best, you would only get your money back after around 27 years.
38 Well, given that everything goes well, you will still need to start by buying seed potatoes. In my garden centre these don't come cheap. For easy-to-transport produce with long shelf lives, like potatoes, carrots and onions, it really is almost impossible to get the maths to work in your favour on a domestic scale, as efficiencies resulting from agricultural mechanisation make these so inexpensive to buy.
However, when it comes to more delicate offerings, the opposite is often true. The plants harvested only by hand can be costly to buy. 39 Many herbs like mint, dill and fennel are so tough that much of the gardening advice is how to prevent them from taking over your pot. This is also true for pricey salad crops like wild rocket, or arugula, which live a secret double life as a common garden weed. 40
A. What if you abandon the container and just grow some potatoes in garden soil
B. The three most expensive items in my supermarket happen to be the easiest to grow.
C. But the writers never really reference how they arrived at the conclusion.
D. These turn out to be the exception to the general economic reality.
E. Let's look at the numbers.
F. So why bother to grow your own plants
G. We should consider the cost of the potatoes, the growing medium, fertiliser, and water.

Linda, a high school girl, was feeling depressed after she had failed her mid-term exams. She didn't answer her teachers’ questions actively in class like she used to. Instead, she began to lower her head and got absent-minded easily. Her friends and classmates were worried about her, but she didn't feel like talking about it with them. Mrs. Green, her English teacher, noticed her changes and decided to do something before it got worse.
One day, Mrs. Green entered the classroom and asked her students to prepare for a surprise test. They waited anxiously at their desks for the test to begin. Mrs. Green handed out the question papers, with the text facing down as usual. After she handed them all out, she asked her students to turn the page and begin. To everyone's surprise, there were no questions, just a black dot in the center of the page. Mrs. Green, seeing the expression on everyone's face, told them the following:“I want you to write what you see there.”
The students, confused, got started on the task.
At the end of the class, Mrs. Green collected all the answer papers and started reading them aloud in front of all the students. Just as Mrs. Green had expected, with no exception, all of them described the black dot, trying to explain its position in the middle of the sheet, etc. Mrs. Green then picked out Linda’ s paper and added, “Linda,I like your idea. Would you please follow me to the office and talk about it ”
“Er... Yes, madam!” Linda was puzzled because she thought her idea was no better than anyone else's. Like others, she also described the black dot only and ignored the white part of the paper.
Paragraph 1:
Feeling nervous, Linda went into Mrs. Green's office.
Paragraph 2:
“Mrs. Green is right. I should focus more on the white part of the paper!” Linda got refreshed.

W: Hundreds of pet lovers and owners gathered on Egypt's Mediterranean North Coast in Matrouh Governorate for an annual pet camival. It provides pet lovers and owners with a chance to meet experts in pet care, breeding and nutrition.
“This is the first time to organize it on the North Coast, which is a plus for us,” said Nadine Handy, marketing manager of the carnival. The event includes activities of pet medication and training, and offers a number of recreational activities for pets, such as swimming and shows.
For Adam Kilani, a visitor from neighboring Alexandria Governorate, the event was an unforgettable experience, as his five-year-old pet dog Gawaher had learnt to swim for the fist time. “It is a great chance for me to learn about pet care in an amusing way,” Kilanisaid. “Holding such events, especially in tourist resorts during the summer, will significantly promote the culture of pet ownership in Egypt.”
Lina Kamal, who brought her three-year-old dog to the carnival, said the event was important because it raised the issue of street animals and offered solutions to their sad situation.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕“过度分享者”这一现象进行讨论，分析了过度分享者的特点、行为背后的动机，以及面对过度分享者时我们应该如何应对。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Uninvited opinions about someone’ s marriage, their constant failures or whatever just happened in the bathroom are all clues you' ve got an Oversharer on your hands. Whether they’ re telling too much or asking for details you' re not comfortable sharing, this all-too common persona has no boundaries.(对别人婚姻的不请自来的意见，他们不断的失败，或者浴室里发生的任何事情，都是你手上有一个过度分享者的迹象。不管他们是说得太多，还是问你一些你不太愿意分享的细节，这种太常见的角色是没有界限的。)”可知，第一段描述了过度分享者的行为特点，如未经邀请就发表关于某人的婚姻、他们的持续失败或浴室里刚发生的任何事情的意见，这些都是你遇到了一个过度分享者的线索。因此，该段的主要功能是塑造一个过度分享者的形象，让读者对这种人有一个清晰的认识。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“At the same awkward time, the Oversharer is only trying to get closer to you by revealing more about themselves—— and hoping you’ ll do the same.(在同样尴尬的时候, “过度分享者”只是想通过透露更多关于他们自己的信息来接近你, 并希望你也这样做。)”和“but they really just want to be liked and accepted.(但他们真的只是想被喜欢和接受。)”可知， 过度分享者通过透露更多关于自己的事情来试图与你拉近距离，并希望你也能这样做。因此，他们之所以对谈论私人问题感兴趣，是因为他们渴望与他人建立更紧密的联系。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“When they really cross the line, don't be shy. Say something that indicates your boundary is being crossed.(当他们真的越界了, 不要害羞。说一些表明你的界限被越过了的话。)”可知, 当过度分享者越过了你的界限时，建议的做法是声明你的界限。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段是对倒数第二段提出的建议的解释，根据倒数第二段内容“A compliment( 称赞) also works wonders with an Oversharer, adds Gerber, because it refocuses the conversation in their direction while subtly resetting your boundary.(赞美对“过度分享者”也有很好的效果, Gerber补充说, 因为它可以将谈话的焦点重新集中在他们的方向上，同时巧妙地重置你的界限。)”以及最后一段“Tomy nosy friend who asks me when I plan to have a baby, for example,I will give this wise response next time:“You made having kids look so easy! How'd you do it ” Then nod and smile, nod and smile. Maybe I won't have another baby in this life, but at least I’ ll be ready to face an Oversharer— or any of the challenging people it takes to make a world.(例如, 当我的好管闲事的朋友问我打算什么时候要孩子时，下次我会给出这样明智的回答：“你让生孩子看起来很容易！ 你是怎么做到的 ”然后点头微笑，点头微笑。也许我这辈子不会再要孩子了，但至少我准备好面对一个“过度分享者”——或者任何一个创造世界所需要的具有挑战性的人。)”可知，作者对她的爱打听的朋友关于她何时计划生孩子的问题，通过回答“你让孩子们看起来如此容易！ 你是怎么做到的 ”赞美朋友来回应，从而将焦点从自己转移到她的朋友身上。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项研究探讨了儿童如何应对违背常识的说法。实验中，孩子们被要求判断不同大小的玩偶哪个最重。结果显示，尽管儿童最初相信成人的说法，但小学阶段的孩子会通过实验验证这些说法，从而更新自己的认知。这表明儿童在面对新信息时具备经验主义倾向。
【32题详解】
段落大意题。根据第三段中“Each child was presented with five differently-sized objects made from painted Russian dolls.”(每个孩子面前都有五个大小不同的用俄罗斯彩绘娃娃制作的物品。) 以及“The children naturally assumed that the smallest doll was the lightest and the largest the heaviest. When asked to identify the heaviest object, most children chose the largest one. An adult then either agreed with the children's choice or made a claim that the smallest doll was the heaviest.” (孩子们自然而然地认为最小的娃娃最轻, 最大的娃娃最
重。当被要求找出最重的物体时，大多数孩子都选择了最大的那个。然后，成人要么同意孩子们的选择，要么声称最小的娃娃是最重的。)可知第三段主要描述了研究的具体方法，包括研究对象、实验设计和过程, 故选 D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“A study published in Developmental Psychology explores how children react to ideas that go against what they usually think and if they check these ideas against what they expect.”(发表在《发展心理学》上的一项研究探讨了儿童对与他们通常想法相反的想法的反应，以及他们是否将这些想法与他们的期望进行核对。)可知 Emma假设西瓜是甜的，然后品尝验证，符合文章主旨，故选D 项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。倒数第三段中“By elementary school, they systematically test such claims by seeking new evidence, which they then use to update their beliefs”(到了小学, 他们会通过寻找新的证据来系统地检验这些说法，然后利用这些证据来更新自己的信念) 可知，成年人可以从孩子身上学到从自身经验中学习的道理。故选 A 项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“A study published in Developmental Psychology explores how children react to ideas that go against what they usually think and if they check these ideas against what they expect.”(发表在《发展心理学》上的一项研究探讨了儿童对与他们通常想法相反的想法的反应，以及他们是否将这些想法与他们的期望进行核对。) 以及“This way of checking, known as the“empirical stance,” is evident by the time children reach elementary school.”(这种被称为“经验立场”的检查方式在孩子们上小学时就已经显现出来了。)并结合通读全文可知，文章主要讨论了儿童如何通过经验验证来形成信念，并建议各年龄段的人都应更多地采用这种经验立场，故选 C项。

【答案】36. C37. E 38. A 39. B 40. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章探讨了家庭园艺是否能节省开支，通过具体例子(如种植土豆) 表明，对于一些作物，家庭种植难以与工业化生产的低成本竞争； 但对某些草本植物和沙拉菜来说，家庭种植则更为经济实惠。
【36题详解】
由上文“Every year at this harvest time, you are likely to read articles about the promise that the average family
can save money by growing their own fruit and vegetables.(每年在这个收获季节, 你可能会读到这样的文章,即普通家庭可以通过种植自己的水果和蔬菜来省钱。)”可知，本空要承接上文，继续讨论关于“省钱”这一话题, 再由后文“So can your average home gardener really compete on price against the economies of scale of industrial agriculture (那么, 普通家庭园丁真的能在价格上与工业化农业的规模经济竞争吗 )”可知,后文是在讨论“省钱”这一承诺是否能够实现，C选项中“conclusion”指代上文提到的“省钱”这一结论, C选项“But the writers never really reference how they arrived at the conclusion.(但作者们从未真正引用他们是如何得出这一结论的。)”符合题意，能够承上启下。故选C。
【37题详解】
由上文“So can your average home gardener really compete on price against the economies of scale of industrialagriculture (那么，普通的家庭园艺爱好者真的能在价格上与工业农业的规模化经济竞争吗 )”可知，本空要承接上文, 引出下文对能否在价格上竞争的讨论, E 选项“Let’ s look at the numbers.(让我们看看这些数字。)”，引出下文通过列举数字进行说明，符合题意。故选E。
【38题详解】
由上文“Assuming you get similar output as the professionals, a60×60 cm container would only give you around2 to 3 kg per year. So at best, you would only get your money back after around 27 years.(假设你的产量与专业人士相似，一个60×60厘米的容器每年只能给你2到3公斤左右。所以，你最多只能在27年后拿回你的钱。)”可知，上文讨论了使用容器种植土豆可能需要很长时间才能回本，再由后文“Well，given that everything goes well, you will still need to start by buying seed potatoes. In my garden centre these don't come cheap.(好吧，既然一切顺利，你仍然需要从购买种薯开始。在我的花园中心， 这些并不便宜。)”可知，后文是在讨论在花园土壤中种植土豆, E选项中“the container”和上文相呼应, “in garden soil”引出下文种植方式, 所以, A 选项“What if you abandon the container and just grow some potatoes in garden soil (如果你放弃容器，在花园的土壤里种一些土豆呢 )”提出了种植土豆的替代方案，自然地延续了关于如何更有效地种植土豆的话题。故选 A。
【39题详解】
由上文“However, when it comes to more delicate offerings, the opposite is often true. The plants harvested only by hand can be costly to buy.(然而, 当涉及到更精致的产品时, 情况往往恰恰相反。只能手工收割的植物可能很贵。)”和下文“Many herbs like mint, dill and fennel are so tough that much of the gardening advice is how to prevent them from taking over your pot.(许多草药, 如薄荷、莳萝和茴香, 都非常坚硬, 因此园艺建议大多是如何防止它们占据你的花盆。)”可知，这里主要讨论了某些植物的价格与其种植难易程度之间的反差，故本空需要引出一个与这种反差相关的观点。B 选项“The three most expensive items in my
supermarket happen to be the easiest to grow.(我超市里最贵的三种商品恰好是最容易种植的。)”既是对上文内容的承接，也为下文进一步讨论这些植物的种植提供了铺垫。故选B。
【40题详解】
由上文“However, when it comes to more delicate offerings, the opposite is often true. The plants harvested only by hand can be costly to buy.(然而, 当涉及到更精致的产品时, 情况往往恰恰相反。只能手工收割的植物可能很贵。)”和“Many herbs like mint, dill and fennel are so tough that much of the gardening advice is how to prevent them from taking over your pot. This is also true for pricey salad crops like wild rocket, or arugula, which live a secret double life as a common garden weed.(许多草药, 如薄荷、莳萝和茴香, 都非常坚硬, 因此园艺建议大多是如何防止它们占据你的花盆。对于野生火箭草或芝麻菜等昂贵的沙拉作物来说也是如此，它们作为一种常见的花园杂草，过着秘密的双重生活。)”可知，此处讨论的是一些植物虽然种植容易但价格却很高，这与一般的经济规律(即成本越低，价格应该越低) 相悖。这些植物成为了经济规律中的一个例外。D选项中“These”指代的是前文提到的那些种植容易但价格昂贵的植物。故D选项“These turn out to be the exception to the general economic reality.(事实证明, 这些都是一般经济现实的例外。)”总结上文, 正好指出了上文所描述的植物是经济规律中的一个例外。故选 D。

第一节
Dear David,
I hope this email finds you well. I am Li Hua, a student at our school, and I would like to suggest a Relay Race with Obstacles for the Sports Carnival. The setup will include a 100-meter track with hurdles, balance beams, and crawling nets. Participants will be in teams of four, completing the course one by one. Rules require navigating the obstacles without falling or skipping, with violations resulting in a 5-second penalty. Safety measures will include safety mats and medical staff on standby. Times will be recorded using stopwatches, and the fastest team wins. This activity will be exciting and promote teamwork and physical fitness. Looking forward to your feedback.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Feeling nervous, Linda went into Mrs. Green’ s office. The room was cozy, filled with the scent of old books and fresh ink. Mrs. Green gestured for Linda to sit down, and with a warm smile, she began to speak. “Linda, do you remember the black dot we saw today Everyone focused on it, just like how we often fixate on our failures and shortcomings in life.” Linda listened intently, her eyes wide with curiosity. “But what about the vast white space around the dot ” Mrs. Green continued, “That represents all the good things in our lives that we often overlook. It's easy to get stuck on the negatives, but it's important to see the bigger picture.” Linda nodded slowly, starting to understand the deeper meaning behind the exercise. Mrs. Green then handed her a small notebook. “Whenever you feel overwhelmed, write down three things you' re grateful for. It will help you see the positives.”
“Mrs. Green is right. I should focus more on the white part of the paper!” Linda got refreshed. As she walked back to her classroom, a newfound sense of optimism filled her. She realized that her recent failures were just small dots in the vast canvas of her life. There were so many other things to be grateful for— her supportive friends, her loving family, and the opportunity to learn and grow. That evening, Linda opened the notebook Mrs. Green had given her and began to write. “I’ m grateful for my teachers who always believe in me. I’ m grateful for my friends who support me. I'm grateful for the chance to improve myself.” Each word she wrote brought a smile to her face. Over the next few weeks, Linda started to participate more in class, her confidence gradually returning. She even approached Mrs. Green after class one day to thank her for the lesson. “Thank you, Mrs. Green. You’ ve taught me to see the beauty in the white spaces.” Mrs. Green smiled warmly, knowing that her words had made a difference.
