Tree-planting projects are becoming increasingly popular worldwide, led by companies,nonprofits, governments,and communities.This raises the question of how investors or donors can choose which projects to support and assess their effectiveness.To address this,researchers of theMongabay.appcreated a databaseto organize information on what reforestation projects publicly disclose. It is basedon a comprehensive set of expert-identified criteria grouped into five categories— context,ecological, economic,social,and institutional—— and assists users to identify suitable projects and ask informed questions.

•Why use the Mongabay. App

High standards: Our list of criteria was primarily drawn from the Forest Landscape Restoration

（FLR） approach, widely recognized as the gold standard across the restoration sector.

Transparency（透明度）:Rather than make an assessment of the quality of the projects,the Mongabay. app reveals how much information is publicly disclosed by an organization.

A growing catalog （目录）: The community is encouraged to share new projects and update

information about existing projects to make this catalog the best available resource.

•How it works

To find a reforestation project that matches your interests, sort through the catalog using indicators from five key categories.

These ecological criteria are important for understanding if the right trees are being planted in the right place.

•••cInstitutional.

This set of criteria has to do with the management and ownership of projects. These questions may scorn basic, but it can be difficult to tell whois

actually doing the work on the ground versus funding the project.

Organization type

Project partners

Who's involved

Once you have a list of potential projects, examine the circular diagram next to each one— this represents its transparency level: the more complete the circle, the more information is disclosed. Click

on the diagram to dig into the detailed project chart, so you can make an informed decision on which

project to support.

21.What is the main purpose of the researchers by creating adatabase?

A.To financeprojects.

C. To launch initiatives.

B. To set up standards.

D. To help make choices.

22.What is the first step to find a suitableproject?

A.Make an in-depth study ofprojects.

B.Outline a list of candidateprojects.

C.Examine project charts in adiagram.

D.Assess a project's transparencylevel.

Maya Martinez, a high school senior living in a fog-covered coastal village in North California, noticed that the community garden was gradually drying up during the driest summer on record. While the villagers remained helpless, Maya chose to spend her afternoons carefully observing the thick mist that rolled in from thesea.

Maya had already identified a critical fault in traditional fog-collecting mesh nets （网状网）: they

frequently became blocked by the very water drops they caught, which severely reduced their effectiveness.Diggingdeeperintosolutions,Mayafoundanoveldevicedesignedbytwoscientists—

—the“Fog Harp（竖琴）”.

Maya decided to use the handy materials to create her own“Fog Harp”. At first,neighbors watched the process with doubt as she strung hundreds of thin, upright wires across a solid wooden frame. To them, the setup looked no more than“a giant musical instrument” that only produced useless sounds in the cold coastal wind. Little did they know this simple-looking setup would soon prove surprisingly effective.

The remarkable efficiency of Maya's Fog Harp lies in its clever use of gravity. In a traditional mesh net, tiny water drops get easily trapped within the small square gaps, which stop further collection. This occurs because the surface tension—— the invisible, stretchy“skin” of liquid water—— is too strong for the small drops to overcome. In Maya's Fog Harp,by contrast, water drops hit the wires and slowly combine into larger drops. Most importantly, with no cross wires to hold these larger drops in place, gravity easily overcomes surface tension, allowing the water to slide effortlessly down the wires and collect in a tank below.

Of course, the project faced its share of setbacks. During one severe coastal storm, the extreme wind tore through the wooden frame. Yet, instead of giving in to despair, she immediately set out to fix the problem by reinforcing the entire structure with durable steel wires. By the time autumn arrived, Maya's“Fog Harps” were reliably producing plenty of fresh water every day, partly meeting the daily water needs of the village.

24.Why did Maya observe the thick mist in herafternoons?

A.To predict the weatherconditions.

B.To clarify the reasons fordrought.

C.To check the efficiency of the meshnets.

D.To work out a solution to watershortage.

25.What can we know about Maya's“FogHarp”?

A.It was amusicalinstrument.B. It invited villagers' acidwords.

C. It presented aninbornfault.D. It featured a solid metalframe.

26.What is the key for Maya's Fog Harp to functionwell?

A.Itsupright-wiredesign.B. Its mesh-netstructure.

C. Its weaksurfacetension.D. Its resistance togravity.

27.What can we learn from Maya'sstory?

A.Look beforeyouleap.B. Better late thannever.

C. Think outsidethebox.D. Time waits for no man. C

On a snowy morning in Stockholm, the Candela C-8 looks like a standard speedboat.Once it picks

up speed, something extraordinary happens: the hull（船体）lifts entirely out of the water,“flying” half a meter above the surface. This is the new generation of electric hydrofoils（水翼船）.

They are ideal for urban transport, says Gustav Hasselskog, the founder of Candela technology company. They are quiet, emission-free and cheap to run—— the C-8's cost per mile is about 5% of that of a traditional speedboat. In many cities, to reduce the disturbance caused by large waves, boats are usually speed-limited. Hydrofoils, however, cause almost no wake and thus travel faster. Hasselskog believes they could reshape urban transport by shifting traffic from blocked roads to underused waterways, which he terms“blue highways”.

The Candela C-8 is supported by three thin, red struts（支柱），which are linked to two underwater

wings that turn forward motion into lift. By lifting the hull out of the water, the boat reduces drag by as much as 80 percent, saving a huge amount of energy. Sensors around

the boat measure waves and control systems adjust the wings 100 times a second, providing such asolid, smooth ride that the boat feels as though it is onrails.

The power needed to drive a hydrofoil varies directly with its mass, so minimizing a hull's overall weight is also of importance. The wings must be small enough to reduce drag and strong enough to bear the boat's weight. The solution is to borrow from aerospace and motor racing, and use carbon fiber. Asfor motors, Candela now has a partnership with makers of electric vehicles, allowing electric boats to use standard fast-chargers designed forcars.

The potential impact is significant with nearly half of the world's population living in coastal regions where cities are often stuck in traffic. While large traditional public boats will still be needed for heavy routes, on short passenger-only routes in cities, electric hydrofoils may be about to take off.

28.What does Gustav Hasselskog expect the Candela C-8 todo?

A.Boostcoastaltourism.B. Remodel urbantraffic.

C. Lowertravelexpenses.D. Promote roadbuilding.

29.Which part of the Candela C-8 plays a vital role in its high energyefficiency?

A.Its typeofdrive.B. Its powersource.

C. Itscontrolsystems.D. Its underwaterwings.

30.What does the author think of the large traditional publicboats?

A.They are outofdate.B. They show hugepotential.

C. Theyareirreplaceable.D. They need to beimproved.

31.What can be a suitable title for thetext?

A.Electric Hydrofoils: A New Solution to CityTraffic

B.Traditional Speedboats: Features and CostAnalysis

C.The Candela C-8: Reshaping Heavy-routeTransport

D.Carbon Fiber: Equipping the Candela C-8 withWings

You leave an hour of online surfing with the sense that the world is falling apart. In the real world, however, a neighbor you disagree with politically helps you start your car. Thedissonance is no accident. It is how today's Internet works.

To better understand this gap, researchers surveyed 1,090 adults and found that people dramatically overestimate how common harmful behavior on the Internet is. On Reddit,participants thought harmful commenters were 13 times more common, estimating 43% of users post harmful content, while the actual figure is just 3%. Most offensive posts come

from a small group of highly active users, whose outsized posts shape public beliefs, creating the“majority illusion” that makes this minority seem like the norm, drowning out the silentmajority.

Our brains are wired to notice threats and moral breaks— negative content sticks in our minds. Additionally,socialmediaalgorithms（算法）prioritizecontentthatcausesstrongreactionstokeepusersengaged,withfalsehoodsspreadingfasterthantruth.Botnetworks（僵尸 网络）addtothenoise:ithas beenreportedthatbadbotsmakeuproughlyathirdofglobalwebtraffic,misleadingwhattrendsand

who appears popular.

Measuring online harmful content is tricky, as automated tools often miss unobvious aggressive remarks. But what matters more is not“how harmful is the Internet,” but what ordinary users perceive as normal. Social psychologists call this dynamic“pluralistic ignorance”: people privately reject harmful norms but go along with them publicly. This misconception formed online creates a dangerous gap, fueling public distrust, preventing public participation, and lowering moral standards— if we think“everyone is awful,” we' re less likely to be kind.

Whilethereisnosilverbullet,practicalsteps—rootedinpolicyandpersonalawareness can narrow the gap. The key lies in recognizing online engagement doesn't equal approval: skip“most engaging” feeds and ground our views in actual world connections.Imagine a public square where the loudest few don't seize the microphone— disagreement remains, but the air resounds with daily life: neighbors helping start cars, strangers holding doors. Online, we can make that reality visibleagain.

32.What does the underlined word“dissonance” in Paragraph 1 probablymean?

A.Disorder.B.Prejudice.C.Contrast.D.Debate.

33.What does the“majority illusion” refer to in thetext?

A.Afalseimpression.B. A harmfulbehavior.

C. Anoverestimatedpost.D.A minority ofcommenters.

34.What is Paragraph 3 mainlyabout?

A.Why global web traffic misleadspeople.

B.Why the minority feels like themajority.

C.How we identify online harmfulcontent.

D.What harm online misconceptioncauses.

35.What is the author's suggestion in the lastparagraph?

A.Acting like theloudestfew.B.Improving moralstandards.

C. Avoidingonlineengagement.D. Valuing real-lifeinteractions.

Why struggle with an essay when AI can generate one on your behalf in seconds? Why personally respond to an email when AI can instantly produce automatic replies filled with all the typical greetings and talking-points? 36 Nevertheless, the ease is not necessarily a good thing. Writing still can't be replaced even in the AI-driven era.

Writing serves as a fundamental cognitive （认知的） exercise through which we realize what we

truly understand, acknowledge the limits of our knowledge, and develop structured reasoning. More crucially,itis precisely by the very act of writing that we individuals ultimatelymake new sense ofthe world around us and arrive at a deeper understanding of who we are.37

Paul Graham, a well-known computer scientist, once observed,“Good writers do not simply think and then record thoughts casually. 38" Writing helps us generate ideas we have never had before.

Another critical but often overlooked function of writing is the compression （凝练）of ideas. 39

When done poorly, this process loses precious insights. When done well, it generates the insights and removes the unnecessary parts. Compression requires thinking,which is one reason why writing is so difficult.

AI can write for us, but it won't help us learn to think or understand a problem with deep fluency. And we need deep fluency to solve hard problems. Aworldofcommonthinkingavailableondemand will encourage people to outsource their thinking and reward people who don't. 40 Original thinking will only become more valuable in thefuture.

A.It bridges the gap betweenideas.

B.Many people depend heavily onAI.

C.AI has made writing surprisinglyeffortless.

D.They always uncover insights in the act ofwriting.

E.Those who can think and write independently will standout.

F.This journey of self-discovery is in essence a vital form oflearning.

G.Writing requires us to keep to a point and organize our ideaslogically.

Architecture studio Penda has released visualizations of its“Yin-Yang House”—a home designedfor a tiny plot near the German city of Kassel. Founded by architects Chris Precht and Dayong Sun, the studio created this home for a young family 56(target) a self-sufficient lifestyle in thecountryside.

Given the site's compact (紧凑的)nature, the only space available 57 (grow) fruit,vegetables

and herbs is the roof. Penda therefore designed the roof as a series of terraces( 露 台 )that create a 58 (function) garden.“Whenever architects design a building, they take 59 area away that used to belongto nature,” said the studio,“and we try to give this spaceback.”

The building's form consists of two interlocking sections based on the symbol for Yin-Yang—a Chinese philosophy that describes how 60(seeming) opposing forces can combine to create a 61 (balance) and strong whole. The unique roof features stepped levels going up from the center, like the way mountains rise on either side of avalley.

The sloping(倾斜的)roof ensures that rainwater 62(channel) towards a tank below for 63(store) to

water the plants. Throughout the year, the plants will change 64 the seasons, varying the building's appearance.

The“Yin-Yang House” integrates living and working spaces, architecture and nature,creating a truly self-sufficient home, 65 timeless wisdom meets the future of green design.

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。

When Mum told me to stay with Grandpa for a couple of hours, I was extremely unwilling deep down.“He doesn't like me,” I said.“Oh, of course he likes you. He's just sad since Grandma passed away,” Mum replied. We drove straight to Grandpa's in an uncomfortable silence.

After dropping me off at Grandpa's apartment, Mum headed to her appointment,promising to come to pick me up soon. Spotting me, Grandpa motioned for me to sit. We glanced up at each other now and then but didn't say anything.“Want to watch television?”he asked. I nodded. But nothing was on. Two minutes later, he turned the TV off. We sat there, Grandpa patting his legs restlessly, and me trying to find a comfortable position on his old, softcouch.

Suddenly, I felt something hard on the floor beneath the couch. I reached down and pulled it out. It was a wooden box with fancy designs carved into the sides.“Chess?” I said,surprised.“Yeah, I used to play. Do you play?” Grandpa asked. “Never,” I answered.Grandpa fell quiet for a moment, staring at the window and still tapping his legs. Then he suggested that since we had time, he could teach me how to play. I agreed casually.

Grandpa opened the box, a smell of wood polish rising from inside. He taught me about all thepieces and showed me how they moved: the king could move one square in any direction, and the gamewaswonbytrappinghim;pawns（兵）movedstraightfbrward;knights（马）movedinanL-shapeandcould leap over other pieces... I was amazed at how patient hewas.

Wepracticedabunchoftimes.Hejustcorrectedmeandhadmetryagain.Finally,whenhe was

satisfied that I knew what to do with all the pieces, he said we were ready to play for real.

We were really enjoying ourselves when Mum returned.
