My phone rang after I boarded a plane. It was my former PhD adviser calling to tell me that a preprint had just posted identified flaws(缺陷) in a paper we'd published in Nature. My stomach dropped as he told me the authors of the critique(评论) were demanding a retraction(撤回). The plane soon took off. I spent the 16-hour flight processing a mix of emotions —disbelief, embarrassment, frustration—and wondering what this would mean for my career.
After the plane landed, I took out my laptop and logged onto the airport WiFi so I could read the critique myself. It was harsh and thorough, pointing out several fundamental flaws in our methods and in the basic data which we'd gathered from other studies.
The fallout was swift and intense. I received a f lo od of emails and messages. Some were from supportive colleagues, but many were harshly critical of our work. I felt deeply embarrassed by the criticism.
We wrote a draft response, correcting the apparent errors in the data set and defending our methods. We decided against publishing our response, however, after receiving feedback from peer reviewers.
When it became clear that the retraction was unavoidable, I formally offered my resignation(辞职) to my department head. He didn't accept it, saying a resignation wasn't needed considering the errors in the paper were honest mistakes.
The experience helped me grow as a scientist. I learned that it is better to be open and accountable, even if it means admitting mistakes. I can't expect myself to know everything as a scientist and my work will be stronger if I seek out diverse expertise and opinions.
In the end, the reality is that retractions are a necessary part of the scientific process—and one that shouldn't be viewed only through a negative lens. Retractions can also be an opportunity to learn and improve. Honest mistakes happen, and researchers should be encouraged, not punished, for doing the right thing and retracting flawed work.
24. What news did the author get after boarding the plane
A. His research paper would be published soon. B. Some mistakes were found in his preprint.
C. His paper was demanded to be retracted. D. His career might be influenced.
25. What does the underlined word “fallout” mean
A. Answer. B. Result. C. Failure. D. Rejection.
26. Why was the author's resignation refused
A. He had a reputation for honesty. B. He made mistakes unintentionally.
C. He corrected his mistakes in the paper. D. He had made contributions to the department.
27. What did the author learn from his experience
A. Retractions can be a chance to learn. B. Scientists ought to know everything.
C. Honest mistakes are unavoidable in science. D. Admitting mistakes can be really embarrassing.
C
When it came to imaging the future, Arthur C. Clarke stubbornly refused to take credit for any predictions. The Internet, 3-D printers, email: he may have described them all long before they existed. As a science fiction writer, he came up with the idea of a “personal transceiver” that is small enough to be carried about, able to contact with anyone in the world and perform global positioning, making getting lost a thing of the past. Elsewhere, he predicted everything from online banking to reusable spacecraft. His best remembered fictional work of all is 2001 : A Space Odyssey. It also happened to forecast the iPad, computer software that is able to read lips, and space stations.
Interestingly, his vision of the future has barely aged. For example, life in Sri Lanka inspired his 1979 novel, featuring a “space elevator”, a planet-to-space transportation system that would do away with the need for rocket travel. Those human settlements on Mars or Venus are decidedly behind schedule(we humans were expected to have set foot on both by 1980),and we're still looking for the key that should have fully unlocked the languages of whales and dolphins by 1970.
It's a way of thinking that was likely fuelled by his inability to be anything other than utterly absorbed in all that interested him. At the very start of his career, he shared a flat on London's Gray's Inn Road with fellow science fiction writers who nicknamed him “Ego” because of his talent for tuning out (关掉)distraction. Once he'd become a big enough name to be interviewed, he'd send journalists home loaded with research papers.
He once said, “Trying to predict the future is a discouraging and risky occupation.” If a prediction sounds at all reasonable, technological progress is sure to leave it seeming “ridiculously conservative”. But if, by a miracle, a person were to be able to describe the future exactly as it will unfold, “His predictions will sound so absurd and far-fetched that everybody would laugh him to scorn(轻蔑).”
28. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. Clarke is an imaginative science fiction writer. B. Clarke is crazy about the future devices.
C. Clarke is expert at telling one's fortune. D. Clarke is a rarely talented inventor.
29. The examples in Paragraph 2 prove ________.
A. there is no need for rocket travel in future B. unlocking the languages of animals is ahead of time
C. humans were expecting to settle on Mars by 1980 D. Clarke's predictions still seem impossibly distant
30. Why was Clarke called “Ego” by his fellows
A. He could focus all his mind on something. B. He cared more about himself than others.
C. He was absorbed in what interested him. D. He was proud of being a big name.
31. What does Clarke stress in the last paragraph
A. The rapid progress of technology. B. The absurdness of some predictions.
C. The difficulty of predicting the future. D. The miracle of dependable predictions.
D
A new study suggests water may have existed on Mars much more recently than past evidence has shown. The research is based on data collected by China's Zhurong explorer vehicle. The explorer arrived on the planet in 2021.
Today, Mars has a cold desert climate. But past studies have provided evidence that ancient Mars had large amounts of water. This is believed to have included rivers, lakes and oceans. A study suggested that 4.3 billion years ago, Mars likely had an ocean covering nearly half of the planet's northern hemisphere(半球).
There are different theories for what caused large amounts of water to disappear from Mars. The most likely explanation is that the liquid escaped when the planet's atmosphere thinned over time. This let the water evaporate(蒸发), turning the Martian surface into a frozen desert. The evaporation happened about 3 billion years ago.
In the new study, researchers said the Chinese rover observed salt-rich sand dunes(沙丘)on the surface. The dunes contained breaks, crusts and small hills. The team said these landforms provide evidence that the land had frozen and then melted in the areas studied. The melting could have happened as recently as a few hundred thousand years ago, the study said.
The rover's observations were made in an area called Utopia Planitia, a large flat area, called a plain, in Mars's northern hemisphere. The researchers said they believed the dunes were likely formed sometime after 1.4 million to 400,000 years ago, possibly even more recently. Condition s during that period were likely similar to how things are on Mars today.
The researchers said they believed small openings filled with salty water were created by melting frost or snow. The team ruled out wind as a cause, as well as frost made of carbon dioxide, which makes up most of the Martian atmosphere.
“The rover has now provided evidence that there may be a wider distribution of this process on Mars than previously identified,” said Mary Bourke. She added that although the evidence suggests small amounts of water, it could still be important in identifying environments that could support life.
32. What can we infer about the lost water on Mars from the third paragraph
A. It was absorbed into a desert. B. It went deep underground.
C. It escaped into space. D. It flowed away gradually.
33. What evidence of the Martian surface water was found by Chinese researchers
A. Melted frost and snow. B. Some sand dunes rich in salt.
C. The frost made of carbon dioxide. D. A plain in Mars's northern hemisphere.
34. How does Mary think the new finding will help scientists
A. To judge the formation of dunes. B. To map the distribution of water.
C. To assess the role of wind and frost. D. To find environments suitable for life.
35. What might be the best title for the text
A. China's Rover Makes a Groundbreaking Discovery B. Signs of Water on Mars Are Identified
C. Water Is More Widespread on Mars D. Mars Has a Cold Desert Climate

Okay. I'll admit it. I can be a complainer. After all, there's so much in this life to complain about: the dirty clothes that don't make it into the basket, that annoying neighbor's loud music, my husband's shoes left casually at the front door, rainy days, traffic…
Complaining is a habit I have developed since childhood, and a skill I have honed(磨练)through the years. My family didn't seem to mind—they were great complainers, too —though I do recall some eye-rolling and long-drawn sighs from friends and schoolmates when I would voice my negative opinions. In fact, I can distinctly recall the exact moment when I first realized my complaining habit reached its expert level.
One day, as I reminded my husband once again to remove his bills from the dining-room table, put his shoes away, and lower that dog-gone radio, he put up his hand. “Stop! Stop your complaining. It's driving me crazy.”
I looked at him blank-eyed.
He took a deep breath. “You never hear me complaining, do you ”
“Well,” I answered, “you're complaining about my complaining, so actually, yes, I am hearing you complain right now.”
His eyes widened. Sweat formed on his upper lip. Then he grabbed his car keys and ran out the door.
Perhaps I'd gone too far, I thought. Maybe I really did complain too much. But, what to do about it After all, it had been a lifetime habit. And habits are hard to break.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

【参考范文】
I took a break and sat down to think about solutions. When I felt annoyed, I could lock myself in the bathroom and scream. No. The neighbors would probably hear me. Phone a friend She probably wouldn't be a friend for very long. Then it hit me. I'd been in the habit of keeping a journal for most of my life. Journaling kept me sort of honest with myself, and I liked it for that reason. Perhaps, I thought, a complaint journal might be the answer I was seeking. Each time I found myself feeling the urge to voice anger, I wrote it in my complaint journal. It felt so good and free to say exactly what was on my mind without anyone judging me or my thoughts.
The benefits of this solution were immediate and obvious. Without fear of quarrel, my generally silent and cautious husband opened up to me more. Old friendships became deeper, and new friendships appeared. Neighbors became more neighborly. Overall, I started to just feel better happier and less stressed. When I look back on some of my initial journals, I have to laugh out loud. Some of my complaints appear truly ridiculous. I still keep that journal, though. Those few moments each day when I can sit down, take a break from the pressures of the day and free myself of whatever is bothering me made a big difference for the better in my life. And, if you ask my husband, probably in his life, too.

31. C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段所述，他曾说过：“试图预测未来是一项令人沮丧且危险的职业。”如果一个预测听起来很合理，那么技术进步肯定会让它看起来“保守得离谱”。但是，如果一个人能够奇迹般地描述未来，“他的预测听起来会非常荒谬和牵强，以至于每个人都会嘲笑他。”故选C。
D
主题语境：人与自然——探索宇宙
【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要介绍了中国祝融号探险车在火星上发现了更加有力的火星上存在水的证据。
32. C推理判断题。根据文章第三段所述：关于是什么导致火星上大量的水消失，有不同的理论。最有可能的解释是：随着时间的推移，当行星的大气层变薄时，液体逃逸了。水蒸发了，火星表面变成了一片冰冻的沙漠。蒸发发生在大约30亿年前。故选C。
33. B细节理解题。根据第四段的前三句话所述：研究人员表示，在这项新的研究中，中国火星车观察到了富含盐分的沙丘。沙丘上有裂缝、结壳和小山。研究小组表示，这些地貌提供了证据，证明在所研究的地区，土地已经冻结，然后融化。故选B。
34. D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段提到的“She added that although the evidence suggests small amounts of water, it could still be important in identifying environments that could support life.（她补充说：尽管这个证据表明水含量很小，但它在确认可以支持生命存在的环境方面仍然很重要。）”可知，新的发现可以帮助科学家们找到适宜生命存在的环境。故选D。
35. A主旨大意题。根据全文的主要内容：中国祝融号探险车在火星上发现了更加有力的火星上存在水的证据；故选A。

W: Karl, welcome. I know you were in the national competition last week and won second.
M: Yes.
W: And how do you feel when you get out there on the ice
M: I do get nervous, so I never think about other skaters. I focus on the audience hoping they enjoy it then I skate well. If I start thinking about the judges, then I make mistakes.
W: You have to practice every day obviously. Do you have time for any hobbies
M: Not much. I go swimming whenever I can that was my first love before skating. I'd love to go horse riding or play tennis, but I can't fit everything in.
W: I hear that you're going to be in a TV show next week. You must take pride in yourself, aren't you

W: What kind of things will you be looking for as a judge
M: Well, the skaters should show that they are able to do all the moves without any problems. Each skater has a partner. They can't choose who they skate with but they can decide which music they want to skate to.
W: It sounds like an interesting show. Thank you, Karl.
