An elderly gentleman was standing by the side of a path, looking confused and lost. Just at that moment, a kind-hearted young girl approached him. She asked him gently what was wrong and listened patiently as he struggled to explain.Without hesitation, the girl took his hand and slowly guided him along the path, chatting with him to ease his anxiety. They walked together until they reached the place the old man was supposed to be. The old man smiled with thankfulness and relief.After helping the old man, the girl didn't just leave. She spent some more time with him, sharing some interesting stories and making him laugh. The old man's eyes sparkled with joy, and it was clear that this interaction had brightened his day. The girl's kindness seemed to have an effect, as other people in the park also noticed and were inspired by her actions.I continued to observe as the girl then decided to stay with the old man for a while longer. They sat on a bench together, and the girl began to tell him about her own life, her dreams, and her adventures. The old man listened attentively, nodding and smiling from time to time. It was a beautiful sight to behold, this unlikely pair sharing such a genuine and heartwarming connection.This encounter made me reflect on the importance of kindness in our society. In a world that can often seem cold and hurried, acts like the girl's are like the tower of light, showing us the way to a more empathetic（同情的）and caring existence. It also made me think about how we all have the potential to make a difference in someone else's life, no matter how small the act may be.Now, whenever I recall this scene, it warms my heart and reminds me to be more willing to offer a helping hand, to spread kindness wherever I go, and to believe in the goodness that lies within each of us.24.

What can we infer about the author's attitude?A. Doubtful .B. Disapproving.C. NegativeD. Admiring.27. Where is this passage most likely from?A. A detailed and informative travel guide filled with places to visit.B. A complex and educational science textbook with various theories.C. A personal blog where the author shares personal experiences and thoughts.D. A trendy and fashionable magazine featuring the latest styles and trends.CChina's tea culture is an ancient and profound（意义深远的）cultural heritage that has been passed down and developed for thousands of years. It weaves an complicated and fascinating pattern within Chinese society.Tea growing in China is an art form in itself. The tea-growing areas, with their special climates and lands, produce teas of exceptional quality. From the misty mountains of Fujian to the green landscapes of Yunnan, different areas offer a rich variety of tea types.The process of making tea is careful and detailed. It involves exact measurements of water temperature, the right amount of tea leaves, and a certain steeping time to get the fullest flavor and smell. This care for details shows the Chinese people's search for excellence in all parts of life.Tea is not merely a beverage; it is a thing that helps social relations. It brings people together, whether in family get-togethers, friendly meetings, or business talks. The act of sharing a cup of tea is a sign of kindness and connection. And the many tea-houses all over the country offer places for people to relax, talk, and enjoy the peace that tea gives. Moreover, tea ceremonies are an important part of Chinese culture. These ceremonies are complex and formal, showing the grace and elegance of Chinese traditions. They involve exact movements and a deep respect for the tea and the process.In addition to its social and cultural importance, tea in China is also known for its possible health benefits. It is thought to have anti-oxidant(抗氧化的) features and is linked to various good effects on physical health.As China keeps moving forward and modernizing, its tea culture is still strongly fixed, a proof of its historical and cultural importance. It keeps attracting both the Chinese people and those from around the world, inviting them to explore and enjoy the beauty and depth of this great cultural phenomenon.28. What is the main reason for the rich variety of tea types in China?A. Different processing methods.B. Different people's preferences.C. Different regions' climates and lands.D. Different times of harvest.29. What does the word "beverages" mean in the passage?A. A type of food that is sweet and usually served as dessert.B. A tool or equipment used for cooking.C. A kind of medicine that helps to cure diseases.D. Something that people drink, such as water, juice, or coffee.30. What is the main feature of tea ceremonies in China?A. Simple and casual.B. Complicated and formal.C. Fast-paced and efficient.D. Loud and lively.31. Why is tea culture still firmly rooted in China?A. Because of its long history.B. Because it is profitable.C. Because it is easy to maintain.D. Because the government promotes it.DChina successfully launched the Chang'e-6 spacecraft on Friday. A Long March-5 rocket lifted it off from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan. This was a huge success and a remarkable achievement for China's space exploration program. The launch not only shows China's advanced technological abilities but also makes scientists and space lovers around the world excited.Collecting samples from the far side of the moon is a new thing for humanity. We have very little knowledge about this mysterious side. If the Chang'e-6 mission is successful, it will give scientists important and direct facts to know more about the far side's environment, geological features, and material make-up. This will be an important step forward in our exploration of the moon and the universe as a whole.The Chang'e-6 spacecraft has an orbiter, a lander, an ascender（上升器）, and a returner. When it reaches the moon, it will land carefully on the far side. Within 48 hours after landing, a robot arm will carefully collect rocks and soil from the lunar surface. Also, a drill will go into the ground to take samples from deeper layers. At the same time, a series of complex scientific tests and analyses will be done to get valuable data.The far side of the moon is very different from the side we can see. The Apollo basin in the South Pole-Aitken Basin is chosen as the landing and sampling place for the Chang'e-6 mission. This area is thought to have precious clues about the moon's formation and development, giving possible ideas about the early history of our celestial（天体）neighbor.This mission has many technical difficulties and needs the latest technologies. It also gets help from international cooperation, showing the spirit of working together in the global search for space exploration. The exploration of the far side of the moon may provide valuable scientific data and open up new possibilities for future space activities, such as setting up long-term lunar bases and using lunar resources.The success of the Chang'e-6 mission has the possibility to make more international cooperation in space exploration. It shows China's strong wish to add to the growth of global knowledge about the universe and encourages other countries to work together to find out the secrets of the universe.32. What is the main purpose of the Chang'e-6 mission?A. To build a base on the far side of the moon.B. To study how the moon moves around.C. To collect and bring back samples from the far side of the moon.D. To look for water on the moon.33. Which of the following is true about the far side of the moon?A. It's different from the side we can see.B. It's the same as the side we can see.C. We know a lot about it.D. It has no rocks or soil.34. What might the exploration of the far side of the moon lead to?A. No change in the future.B. New chances for space activities.C. Fewer friends for China in space.D. No new technologies.35. What could be a suitable title for this passage?A. "The Mystery of the Moon"B. "The Far Side of the Moon: Unknown Territory"C. "Space Exploration and Challenges"D. "China's Chang'e-6 Mission: Unveiling the Secrets of the Moon's Far Side"第二节（共5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分12.5 分）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。

Duchess Nina launched a campaign to save as many animals as possible, and soon became known as the “animal heroine” for her efforts.Duchess Nina worked with local farmers and animal owners to relocate animals to safer areas, such as the Scottish Highlands. She also established a network of volunteers who helped to care for animals during the war. She organized feeding programs, medical care and transportation, ensuring that animals were well looked after even during the most difficult times. The most challenging aspect of her work was the shortage of food during the war. So she established a vegetable garden and used leftovers to create nutritious meals for animals. She also reached out to the public for donations of food and supplies, and was able to secure enough resources to keep animals healthy and fed.In addition to her work with domestic animals, Duchess Nina was also a strong advocate for wildlife conservation. She established a center for wild animals in Scotland, where she provided a safe place for deer, foxes and other animals that were threatened by the war. She also worked with local protection groups to protect natural habitats.Duchess Nina’s work during World War Ⅱ was not without its risks. She frequently risked her life to save animals, often driving through perilous areas.Sadly, some people saw her efforts as a distraction from the war effort. However, she continued to work tirelessly for animals. After the war, Duchess Nina’s work was recognized by the government and she got an important award for her services to animals.24. How did Duchess Nina probably feel when she heard the government’s orders?A. Calm.B. Encouraged.C. Excited.D. Worried.25. What was the biggest problem that Duchess Nina faced?A. Nobody gave her any donations.B. She couldn’t find enough volunteers.C. Locals didn’t give her enough support.D. The animals didn’t have enough food to eat.26. Why did Duchess Nina start the center in Scotland?A. To keep domestic animals there.B. To attract local protection groups.C. To provide a home for wild animals.D. To offer a safe place to animal owners.27. What does the underlined word “perilous” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Urban.B. Dangerous.C. Faraway.D. Poor.CI’ve never had a great sense of direction. And I often wander into shops and, upon coming back out, can’t remember which way I’ve come from—left or right? Many people are like me, and why do some constantly have no idea where they are?The hippocampus (海马体) is a region of the brain associated with memory and involved in sense of direction. And a nearby region has also been associated with sense of direction. There are four known types of navigation-related neurons (神经元) found in these regions: place cells, grid cells, border cells and head direction cells.In short, you can think of place cells as an internal cognitive (认知的) map; they identify where you are. Grid cells are like a GPS system in our brain; they tell us about the relationship of this place to other places we’ve been to. Border cells respond to the presence of environmental boundaries at aspecific direction and distance from us. Lastly, head direction cells are activated when our head faces a specific direction. These cells will fire electrical impulses when we enter familiar locations, with each group of cells relating to a specific place.Our reliance on GPS and smartphones may have decreased the ability to use our internal maps. Older adults who regularly used GPS had less activity in their hippocampus, compared with those who did not use GPS. They also performed slightly worse in a cognition test. In contrast, a study involving London taxi drivers found they had significantly larger hippocampus than ordinary people.You can improve your way-finding ability specifically by practicing the skill, according to Aziz, PhD of neurology at Temple University School of Medicine. “The more you get out and go to places, the better,” he says. Physical exercise improves the blood flow to the brain, while mental exercise, such as doing puzzles or learning a new language, stimulates the development of new nerve cells and connections in your brain.28. How does the author introduce the topic of the text?A. By raising a question.B. By making a comparison.C. By stating personal opinions.D. By referring to scientific research.29. What can we learn about the four types of navigation-related neurons?A. They depend closely on each other.B. They are responsible for different jobs.C. They will decrease in numbers as one ages.D. They will fail to function in unfamiliar situations.30. What will happen if we rely too much on GPS?A. We will easily be misled.B. Our hippocampus will get enlarged.C. Our cognitive ability will be affected.D. We will have our hippocampus relaxed.31. What are we advised to do according to the last paragraph?A. Build up our body.B. Try different brain exercises.C. Take training courses.D. Get out to connect with people.DDogs may have earned the title of our best friends through their interactions with humans, butnow researchers say these social skills could be present shortly after birth rather than being learned.To better understand the role of biology in dogs’ abilities to communicate with humans, the researchers studied 375 eight-week-old service dogs. They looked at how these dogs performed in a series of tasks designed to measure their communication skills. The puppies were still living with their littermates (同窝出生者) and had not been sent to live with a volunteer puppy raiser, making it unlikely that they had learned about his or her behavior.In the first task, a person hid a treat beneath one of two overturned cups and pointed to it to see if the puppy could follow the gesture. Since dogs are good at using noses to find things, a treat was also taped to the insides of both cups. In the second task, puppies watched as the researchers placed a yellow block next to the correct cup, instead of pointing to indicate where the puppy should look for the food.The third task was designed to observe puppies’ tendency to look at human faces. The researchers spoke to the puppy in a voice people sometimes use when talking to a baby. They then measured how long the puppy fixed a stare on the human.In the last task, researchers sealed a treat inside a closed container and presented it to the puppy. They then measured how often the puppy looked to the human for help in opening the container.The study found that while many of the puppies were responsive to humans’ physical and verbal cues, very few looked to humans for help with the unsolvable task. Researchers said, “This suggests that while puppies may be born knowing how to respond to human-initiated communication, the ability to initiate communication on their own may come later.” The next step will be to see if specific genes that may contribute to dogs’ abilities to communicate with humans can be identified.32. Why were eight-week-old service dogs chosen for the study?A. They had had little contact with humans before.B. They were unlikely influenced by their mates.C. They were cute and safe to deal with.D. They were at the best age to learn.33. What is the researchers’ purpose in taping food to both cups?A. To provide clues for the puppies’final decisions.B. To make comparisons between different conditions.C. To prevent the puppies from making use of their smell.D. To check the puppies’ preference for a particular color.34. What can we know from the study?A. Puppies can understand our body language.B. Puppies are good at asking humans for help.C. Puppies are born to arouse communication with humans.D. Puppies need specific genes to communicate with humans.35. What can be the best title for the text?A. Dogs—talented performersB. Dogs—humans’ best friendsC. Dogs—born to be able to learnD. Dogs—born to understand humans第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）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。
