During the last week of Fu Bao’s public viewing earlier this month, visitors endured waiting for 5—6 hours
just to give a glance at the panda for only five minutes, as Everland Panda World restricted viewing time to manage
the flood of visitors.
Born to parents Ai Bao and Le Bao in July 2020, Fu Bao is South Korea’s first naturally-born panda. In the
days following her birth, Everland’s social media channels offered fans a steady diet of Fu Bao videos, pulling in
more than 1.2 million subscribers and, as of February, over 500 million accumulated views. The most recent videos
are now filled with warm and sincere messages from viewers.
Thanks to Fu Bao’s widespread popularity, her zookeeper has also found himself in the spotlight, becoming a
bit of a social media star himself. Often referred to as her grandpa, Kang Chul-won offered his own farewell
message to Fu Bao, noting that the South Koreans’ special love for her all began with social media videos shared
during the pandemic when the zoo was closed. She brought help and happiness to a society in many ways that was
having a difficult time due to the virus. He said people visited the social media sites every day so it felt like he was
raising her together with them. They cared so much for her and shared the same emotions of raising a baby panda
together during such difficult times.
Fu Bao will be transferred to China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Sichuan
Province. Everland says that she will be kept alone at Everland Panda World for a month to prepare her to adjust to
her new environment before her overseas transfer, which will be carried out in accordance with international rules.
24. What can we learn about Fu Bao from the first two paragraphs?
A. She has a balanced diet. B. She is five years old.
C. She is very popular in South Korea. D. She came from Sichuan, China.
25. What do South Koreans think of Fu Bao?
A. She is a live symbol of luck and fortune.
B. She is an animal who can resist any virus.
C. She is an inspiration to overcome difficulties.
D. She is their common possession and business.
26. What will Fu Bao do a month before leaving South Korea?
A. She will go on show in Everland.
B. She will be separated for adjustment.
C. She will leave Everland Panda World.
D. She will be moved to a research center.
27. What does the underlined phrase “in accordance with” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. On behalf of. B. In terms of. C. In company with. D. In agreement with.
C
Imagine a horizontal line. The very left is marked one thousand and the very right is marked one billion. On
this line, where would you add a marker to represent one million? If you said somewhere in the middle, you
answered the same as the roughly 50 percent of people who have done this exercise in a number line study. But the
answer is actually much closer to one thousand since there are one thousand millions in one billion.
This error makes sense because “our human brains are pretty bad at comprehending large numbers,” says
Elizabeth Toomarian, an educational neuroscientist at Stanford University. Our brain is built to understand how
much of something is in its environment. But comprehending the national debt or imagining the size of our
universe? “We certainly can use our brains in that way, but we’re recycling these sorts of evolutionarily (进化地)
old brain architectures to do something really new,” she says. In other words, it’s not our fault that we have trouble
wrapping our heads around big numbers.
So what can we do about the struggle to understand big numbers? It is suggested to use metaphors, analogies
(类比) and visualizations. These techniques bring big numbers down to a more comprehensible scale (比例) and
ideally make it relevant to something in our daily lives. For example, it may be difficult for most people to
accurately place the extinction of the dinosaurs on a timeline between the Big Bang and human existence because
the first two both seem to be placed to the distant path. But when conceptualizing (概念化) these events using a
“calendar”, it becomes easier. The Big Bang occurred at 12 a. m. on January 1st on the calendar. Dinosaurs were
only present for roughly the last week of the year. And humans only emerged in the last eight seconds: December
31st, at 12: 59: 52 p. m. It’s clear now that dinosaurs are much closer to humans than the Big Bang on a timeline.
These metaphors and analogies are important if people are to really weigh the costs and benefits of events in
their lives. The concept not only applies to long-term decisions, but public policies.
28. Why does the author mention the example in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To explain the main idea.
C. To make a summary of the text. D. To make comparisons with other topics.
29. According to Toomarian, what’s to blame for being unable to work out big numbers?
A. The lack of conceptual techniques. B. The unwillingness to learn something new.
C. Our low ability to evaluate and compare. D. Our inborn nature due to evolutionary factors.
30. What is recommended for the understanding of big numbers?
A. Making them related to each other.
B. Wrapping our heads around them.
C. Using techniques to put them to a smaller scale.
D. Applying a calendar to present them.
31. What will probably be further discussed in the following paragraph?
A. How to make long-term decisions.
B. How metaphors and analogies help solve public problems.
C. How to weigh the costs and benefits in our life.
D. How important public policies are in our life.

Chinese researchers have revealed the anti-cancer characteristic of neutrophils (中性粒细胞)—a type of white
blood cells—and the related molecular regulation mechanism, providing new insights into cancer diagnosis and
treatment. The discovery, made by researchers at the Shanghai Institute of Immunity and Infection under the
Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fudan University, was published in Cell on Tuesday.
Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in the human body. As the first line of defence against
infections, they play a key role in anti-infection immunity. The researchers collected neutrophils from 143 patients
with 17 different types of cancer and analyzed them. They revealed that neutrophils can adopt at least 10 highly
specialized and distinct functional states related to inflammation (炎症), blood vessel formation and—most
excitingly—presenting antigens (抗体) to activate powerful cancer-killing T cells.
“We were surprised to find such complexity and different roles within neutrophils, which have been ignored
for so long,” said Zhang Xiaoming, a researcher at the Institute. “What is especially remarkable is their newly
discovered capacity to act as antigen-presenting cells, gathering T cells against cancer. In addition, the abundance
of antigen-presenting neutrophils is associated with improved condition across many cancer types revealed in this
study,” he said.
“This completely changes how we perceive neutrophils in the context of cancer,” said Gao Qiang, a professor
at Fudan University. “Now we know we could employ the diverse hidden identities of neutrophils to strengthen the
effectiveness of immunotherapy (免疫疗法). We’re thrilled to further explore the potential benefits of these newly
uncovered mechanisms in clinics.”
The study emphasizes the value of single-cell sequencing approaches to reveal new functional dimensions
even within seemingly well-understood immune cells. Tapping into the hidden potential of neutrophils may provide
new insights into cancer diagnosis and treatment.
32. How was the anti-cancer function of neutrophils discovered?
A. By referring to previous research. B. By collecting and analyzing data.
C. By seeking guidance from experts. D. By observing patients with inflammation.
33. Which of the following is a function of neutrophils?
A. Getting together T cells when needed. B. Preventing the formation of antigens.
C. Speeding up the blood flow. D. Distinguishing different types of cancer.
34. What’s Gao Qiang’s attitude towards the new research?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Unclear.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Blood Cells Successfully Fight Against Severe Cancer
B. China Makes Great Progress in Fighting Against Diseases
C. Further Research Is Needed to Fight Against Cancer
D. Researchers Discover New Cancer-fighting Mechanism

When it comes to happiness, our present selves habitually get deprived (剥夺). 36 In the middle of a
busy workday, you think, “I’ll be happy when I get this done.” When you get the task done, you think, “I’ll be
happy when I’m on vacation...”
When we are doing these, it’s as if we put true happiness in a package addressed to us at some future time
when circumstances will be just right for it to happen. Yet, the package keeps getting lost. 37
What causes this? How can we avoid this result? We should know the reason why we make such choices and
why our future selves seem like strangers to us is partially due to the abstractness of tomorrow. The solution is to
make the future more vivid and create an emotional connection between the present and future selves. Here are
several ways to strengthen the connection.
38 Write a letter to your future self and send back a reply. Then you may gain insights into your future
self’s needs that would get you to take helpful action now.
Visualize the best version of yourself. 39 Importantly, focus on the contrast between now and later.
What are the barriers that stand in the way of turning into that ideal future later? Once you recognize them, you
could start working on them now.
Imagine yourself in old age. Looking back at now, what do you wish you would have done more or differently
with your time? 40 And how can you prioritize the future now, so that when you look back on it later, you
think of it fondly?
Once you do such things, you will make choices that will benefit both your present self and future self.
A. Start a conversation between the selves.
B. What will your future self thank you for?
C. We often put feeling happy to the future us.
D. Learn to communicate with others through letters.
E. What impression did you leave on those around you?
F. This can make what you do today for the future more worthwhile.
G. As a result, we are left without enjoyment of the moment in front of us.

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。
Every week I save all the change and $1 bills I have in my purse. Then every Christmas I cash it in for as
many $100 bills as the saved money gets me. I then wait for a family in need. I split the money in half and give half
to the family in need and the other half to my nine-year-old son, Say’Veon, who puts it in his savings account, to
teach him about delayed satisfaction. Then he helps me get gifts or give the money to the family.
I adopted Say’Veon after his mother, a close friend of mine, passed away from cancer before his fifth birthday.
Even though Say’Veon has dealt with great loss and sadness at such a young age, his generous spirit and loving
heart shine through. He has given money to someone else who needs it more, such as his friends or classmates.
Say’Veon’s acts of kindness always blow me away and I feel blessed to have him in my life.
This week I got a call from a friend, DeeDee, who is 77 years old. She was upset because she had been
cheated, and the cheaters took all the money out of her checking account which she lives on, and now she didn’t
have the money to pay her rent and bills.
This morning, I took the money and showed Say’Veon how much I saved this year. I told him what happened
to DeeDee, and then asked him if he would be willing to give his half along with my half and donate it to her as our
person in need this year.
He said, “Yes, of course.” This year our total was $400.
We went to visit DeeDee and my son handed her a Christmas card with the money. She opened it and said,
“Thank you.” She then looked again and stared at the $100 bills.
