More than 30 years ago, Jadav Payeng started planting trees on a barren sandbar (贫瘠的沙洲) near his
birthplace in India’s Assam region. That day, the then-16-year-old noticed many snakes washed up on the sandbar
after a flood. They were dying due to heat exposure at a rapid rate. “How can I help them?” Then he had an idea:
Trees can provide shade for them!
Jadav lives on an island, Majuli, which is in the middle of the Brahmaputra River. It begins at the base of the
Himalayas, at the meeting of a fan of rivers that drain (流走) snowmelt. At one time, villages upstream had
redirected the river, creating more forceful currents around the island and carrying away the soil, thus damaging the
natural habitats of its wildlife. As a consequence, much of the island became barren sand, and an entire community
was at risk of being displaced.
Jadav also noticed that nobody was doing anything about it besides watching their part of the world disappear.
So, he started to put his idea into action — every day, one or two or three at a time. He took notes of how they
grew, harvested their seeds, grew saplings (树苗) in his hut and planted before going off to work.
Now that once-barren sandbar is a 1,360-acre forest, home to many animals: deer, Bengal tigers, Indian
rhinoceros and even a group of 100 elephants that visit every year. There are now native grasses that have taken
root in the shade and varieties of native trees grown from seeds that have washed ashore. But most importantly, the
island that is also home to a few hundred people is holding its own against the bad weather. Standing beside one of
the first trees he planted 30 years ago, Jadav tells us: “It’s a little thing, something anyone can do.”
24. What was Jadav’s original aim to plant trees?
A. To save the snakes from heat exposure. B. To protect the snakes from extinction.
C. To produce materials to stop flooding. D. To use the leaves to create more shades.
25. What primarily made Majuli a barren island?
A. Villagers’ ignorance of ecology. B. Villagers’ redirecting the river.
C. The extreme weather conditions. D. Loss of wildlife’s natural habitats.
26. Which of the following can best describe Jadav?
A. Frank and learned. B. Subjective yet reliable.
C. Determined and careful. D. Smart but hot-tempered.
27. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. What the forest means to the wildlife. B. How ecology benefits the human kind.
C. How Jadav feels about his simple deeds. D. What difference Jadav’s efforts have made.
C
Like many eco-conscious films, I’ve seen Don’t Look Up many times, and shown it to my friends and family
whenever anyone suggests a movie night. I rarely pass up the moment to educate my loved ones on any possible
disaster or crisis in an entertaining or thought-inspiring way. It’s a refreshing break from the usual doom-
mongering that conversations can often get into. The power of cinema in communicating the climate crisis plays a
critical role in affecting public attitudes and behaviors in relation to environmental justice.
Films appeal to our emotions in a way scientific presentation, academic papers or broadcast interview rarely
can. Accordingly, films have an unusual way of engaging our emotions, which is a vital step in driving changes in
people’s behavior. Films can make full use of this by presenting climate messages within fantastic narratives (叙述)
that seasoned movie watchers will be familiar with. In the case of Don’t Look Up, it’s about meteor (流星) strikes.
For The End We Start From, it’s extreme flooding. In First Reformed, climate activism is the predominant focus.
Films and TV dramas can also bring the vastness of climate disaster down to earth by integrating everyday
events. The TV series Years and Years, launches climate issues into public debate, helping viewers relate to the
characters’ experiences. The End We Start From, set in an extreme flood in London, follows the everyday
experience of having a newborn child. This creates a heart-felt emotional connect ion between the themes of the
film and the viewers’ own experiences. The Day After Tomorrow, the first hit released in 2004, enhances public
awareness and concern through its vivid imagery of environmental disaster.
Films like this generate a strong empathetic (同理心的) connect ion that can help people change the way they
behave far more than facts and data can. Of course, the growing type of climate change cinema is not always
scientifically accurate. But if cinema is to be used more forcefully as a tool to raise the public awareness of climate
crisis, then accuracy is not entirely necessary: it is the emotional connection and thrilling storytelling that are most
crucial.
28. What does the underlined word “doom-mongering” probably mean?
A. Misfortune. B. Imbalance. C. Disbelief. D. Irrelevance.
29. What can be inferred about climate disaster movies from Paragraph 2?
A. They can change environmental efforts. B. They can uniquely create emotional link.
C. They can help viewers out of their trouble. D. They can solve social issues academically.
30. How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By inferring results. B. By analyzing reasons.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
31. What of the following might the author agree with?
A. Disaster films are educational and entertaining.
B. Scientific accuracy is a necessity for disaster films.
C. The growing popularity of cinema is not desirable.
D. Public awareness of entertainment needs raising.
D
Generations of parents have told their children to practice their musical instruments. They have good reason
for it: learning an instrument is not only associated with better educational attainment but also cognition (认知) and
even intelligence scores in children. But does this musicality translate to better cognition (thinking) later in life?
A recent study showed that musical people had better memory and executive (决策的) function than those
with less or no musicality. This makes sense as continued engagement in cognitively stimulating activities, such as
playing an instrument, should result in continued brain health benefits.
Singing is a very popular musical activity as it allows joining musical groups, such as choirs. But does singing
provide the same cognitive benefit as playing an instrument? According to the study, singing can result in better
executive function but not memory, suggesting that playing an instrument has additional brain health benefits.
However, when singing is done in choirs, there is good evidence that being engaged in social activity is good for
our brain health.
Many people might remember the famous “Mozart Effect”, which was based on a 1993 study showing that
when students were played Mozart, they scored higher on intelligence tests. Sadly, the current study found having
played the recorder for three years at primary school might not have that big an impact on our cognitive
performance. So, passively listening to music doesn’t seem to provide any cognitive benefits.
Playing an instrument or singing seems to have benefits to our brain health in aging, according to the study.
What is yet to be established is whether this would also help prevent future cognitive decline or dementia. Still,
considering the overall cognitive and social benefits of learning an instrument or singing in a choir, it might be
worth engaging in such cognitive stimulation as we age. Our parents would be proud of us.
32. Why do parents intend their kids to play an instrument?
A. They suppose it can broaden the kids’ horizons.
B. They design the kids to be musicians in the future.
C. They expect to equip the kids with critical thinking.
D. They think it can improve the kids’ study and thinking.
33. Where could singing differ from playing an instrument?
A. It has better memories. B. It has social benefits.
C. It requires more energy. D. It shapes brain development.
34. What is the author’s purpose of mentioning Mozart Effect?
A. To show cognition relies on active engagement.
B. To display the real role that music plays in study.
C. To list similarities between music and study.
D. To demonstrate how to play a recorder properly.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Why Do People Prefer Singing? B. What Musicals Can Do for You
C. How Music Boosts Your Brain D. Where Shall We Find Musicality?

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
New studies have shown that students gain more information when they read a printed book compared to
reading on a digital device.
Navigational (导航的) devices
E-books may come with a set of “navigational tools”, but it turns out that the best navigational devices are
your forefinger and thumb. 36 . To think, all this time, those devices have been sitting just at the ends of
your arms.
Search tools and bookmarks
Fans of digital books may claim that e-readers have a handy “search” tool. Old-fashioned books also have a
search function, in which you turn back to the opening chapter to remind yourself of the hero’s surname.
37 .
Pencil system
E-book lovers point out that digital text is easy to annotate (加注). Some devices even feature a little image of
a pencil to guide the reader through the process. 38 . With it, favored passages can be underlined and
personalized comments, such as “To the point” and “Not so”, can be written too.

Carrying books in school is a physical exercise in itself. Admittedly, e-books are lighter than paper volumes,
but one must question whether this is really an advantage. In secondary school my physique was transformed by the
daily need to carry science textbooks. Placing these weighty books in our backpacks would draw our shoulders
back and our chests forward in a way that turned the school into something of a military training ground.
40 . But for the moment, I find myself standing at attention, relaxing my textbook-built shoulders and
saluting their glorious return.
A. A book workout
B. A military training
C. You can use them to turn the pages forward and backward
D. Traditional-book users also have a similar system called a “pencil”
E. They even have a “bookmark system”, which uses a device called a “bookmark”
F. Some books serve as our friends and some books can nurse us through hard times
G. Educational aids come and go, so maybe the shift back to traditional books won’t last

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。
Leo and Matt, both aged 16, are best friends who shared a passion for environmental sustainability. They were
both students at a bustling high school in the heart of the city, a school that was infamous for its morning and
afternoon traffic jams. The narrow streets leading to the school were always clogged (堵塞) with cars, buses, and
bicycles, causing a great deal of inconvenience and pollution.
“Look what we are suffering every day!” complained Leo. “Isn’t there a solution to the problem?” Matt
sighed.
They decided to take matters into their own hands and find a solution to the sticky problem. Initially, they
made some speeches, distributed leaflets and volunteered to relieve the traffic congestion (拥堵), trying to persuade
some parents to park their cars a little farther away the school and not to use cars too often. But two weeks passed,
there was nothing better. Then they realized it was no easy work to deal with the trouble. They needed more hands
for help and a well-thought-out plan for it.
They first gathered ten schoolmates who shared the same ambition. Then they started to conduct a thorough
survey to understand the root causes of the traffic congestion. They interviewed students, teachers, and parents, as
well as observed the traffic patterns during different times of the day. They learned that the majority of the
congestion was caused by parents dropping off and picking up their children, as well as the lack of sufficient
parking spaces.
Armed with this information, the team designed a detailed plan. They proposed the creation of a carpool
system for students, encouraging them to share rides to reduce the number of vehicles on the road. They also
suggested dedicated drop-off and pick-up zones, clearly marked with signage, to help streamline the process.
To further reduce congestion, they advocated for the construction of bike racks (架子) and encourage students
to cycle to school. They even proposed a rewards system for those who chose sustainable modes of transportation.

Can Money Really Talk?
In the picture, we see a man sitting on a huge bag of dollars, aspiring for a rosy future. But his confused look
and frowned eyebrows show that he is puzzled about whether money can really bring him success or happiness.
The image suggests that while money may not have literal voice, it certainly speaks volumes through its
actions. Money can open doors, buy luxuries, and even influence people’s opinions and decisions. It has a way of
“talking” through its presence and absence, shaping our world in profound ways.
However, the true value of money lies not in its talking power but in how it is used. Money can be a tool for
good, invested in education, health care, or social causes. It can be a bridge to connect people and ideas, a catalyst
for positive change. In the end, it is not money that talks, but the values and choices of those who wield it.
第二节：
With their plan in hand, Leo and Matt presented it to the school authorities. They were impressed with the
students’ initiative and agreed to support their efforts. The school announced the new measures and encouraged
everyone to participate. As the weeks progressed, the carpool system took shape, and more students started sharing
rides. The bike racks were installed, and more students were seen cycling to school. The rewards system also
proved to be a hit. Students who carpooled, cycled, or walked to school were rewarded with points that could be
used for prizes, adding a fun element to the initiative and further motivating students to participate.
A few months passing by, the school traffic congestion had significantly improved. The narrow streets were no
longer clogged, and the air was clearer. Everyone was happier, and the school community felt more connected and
environmentally responsible. They had not only solved a long-standing problem but also instilled a sense of
sustainability and teamwork among their peers. Their story spread throughout the school and beyond, inspiring
other students to take action and make a positive impact in their own communities. Efforts of responsibility and
sustainability have finally paid off.
