35. 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第三段“The study revealed two distinct substages during non rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, a critical period for memory formation.

(研究揭示了非快速眼动(NREM)睡眠期间的两个不同子阶段，这是记忆形成的关键时期。一个子阶段重现新记忆，此时瞳孔缩小。另一个子阶段涉及回忆旧记忆，特征是瞳孔放大。这些阶段快速交替)”和第四段“It is also found that the brain has an intermediate (中间的) period that separates new learning from old knowledge. The results suggest that the brain can multitask distinct cognitive processes during sleep to facilitate continuous learning without interference. (研究还发现，大脑有一个中间阶段，将新学习的知识与旧知识分开。结果表明，大脑在睡眠期间可以同时执行不同的认知过程，以促进持续学习而不受干扰)”可知，文章主要围绕睡眠中大脑对新旧记忆进行整合的方式展开，它就像有一套特定的规则或代码。A项“Code of Memory Integration in Sleep.(睡眠记忆整合的代码)”能概括文章主要内容，适合做文章标题。故选A项。

Not long ago, video clips of Zhang Jianna directing foreigners have gone viral online. Her fluent English and confident behavior have deeply impressed the viewers.
The 49-year-old Zhang is a migrant worker from a rural village in Hebei province. With only a high school diploma, she had previously worked as a restaurant server. In 2012, she took on the role of a sanitation worker in the embassy area of Sanlitun in Beijing’s Chaoyang district.
One morning, a foreigner approached her, gently tapped her shoulder, and spoke a long string of unfamiliar words to her. Standing there, her mind going bewildered and blank, Zhang didn’t know how to react. The special experience profoundly moved Zhang, making up her mind to learn English.
“My goal is quite simple. I just want to help whenever someone is in need, whether it’s asking for directions, inquiring about visa procedures, or telling them about the embassy area I am responsible for,” said Zhang.
At the age of 40, without a tutor, she began learning English from her children’s textbooks, starting with basic words and phrases commonly used for giving directions. With no fixed study hours, she utilized every spare moment. While others rested, she memorized vocabulary and practiced speaking. Upon arriving home after work, she would note down new knowledge points and review them until thoroughly understood. Over the years, she filled over a dozen notebooks with her notes.
“Learning English at an older age, I would easily forget the words I learned the previous day, which is the biggest challenge,” Zhang said. However, she persisted, reviewing words at night and then repeating them one more time the next day morning.
To date, she has accumulated a vocabulary of around 3,000 English words, enabling her to converse fluently with foreigners. “Growing up in a rural area without a college education, I sometimes feared being looked down upon. But every time I help a stranger in English, I feel incredibly accomplished,” said she.
4．Which of the following is TRUE
A．Zhang got a university diploma.
B．Zhang gets a position as a sanitation worker.
C．Zhang used to communicate with the foreigners.
D．Zhang wants to be an English tutor for her children.
5．What’s the main factor that motivated Zhang to learn English
A．The curiosity for a language. B．A desire to promote her income.
C．A skill required by her leader. D．A special encounter with a foreigner.
6．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “utilize” in Paragraph 5
A．Made use of. B．Set aside. C．Figured out. D．Abused.
7．Which of the following can best describe Zhang
A．Hard-working and creative. B．Forgetful and brave.
C．Persevering and determined. D．Optimistic and ambitious.
C
A new commodity brings about a highly profitable, fast-growing industry, urging antitrust (反垄断) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants (巨头) that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable firms are Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look unstoppable.
Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime. The giants’ success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery. Far from charging consumers high prices, many of these services are free (users pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that newcomers can make waves, too.
But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable, changing the nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies’ control of data gives them enormous power. So they have a "God’s eye view" of activities in their own markets and beyond.
This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become great again. A rethink is required — and as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out.
The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger (兼并), for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms’ data assets (资产) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new-born threat. When this takes place, especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the regulators should raise red flags.
The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and give more to those who supply panies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and how much money they make from it. Governments could order the sharing of certain kinds of data, with users’ consent.
Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy. But if governments don’t want a data economy controlled by a few giants, they must act soon.
8. Why is there a call to break up giants
A. They have controlled the data market. B. They collect enormous private data.
C. They no longer provide free services. D. They dismissed some new-born giants.
9. What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate
A. Data giants’ technology is very expensive.
B. Google’s idea is popular among data firms.
C. Data can strengthen giants’ controlling position.
D. Data can be turned into new services or products.
10. By paying attention to firms’ data assets, antitrust regulators could 　　　.
A. kill a new threat B. avoid the size trap C. favour bigger firms D. charge higher prices
11. What the purpose of restarting antitrust for information age
A. Big companies could relieve data security pressure.
B. Governments could relieve their financial pressure.
C. Consumers could better protect their privacy.
D. Small companies could get more opportunities.
D
When we sleep, our brain is still actively processing the day’s experiences and integrating them with past memories. Previous studies have identified links between pupil (瞳孔) size and sleep state, as well as between sleep state and memory formation. However, it has been unclear how fresh memories are processed without blurring into old ones. For example, how do we learn to play the piano without forgetting how to ride a bike
Researchers at Cornell University addressed this question by attaching brain-scanning electrodes and tiny eye-tracking cameras to mice. They monitored the mice as they learned new tasks during the day, such as navigating a maze, and then observed them during sleep. (Fun fact: mice can sleep with their eyes open.)
The study revealed two distinct substages during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, a critical period for memory formation. One substage replayed new memories, coinciding with narrowed pupils. The other involved recalling older memories, marked by widened pupils. These stages alternated rapidly. The team also discovered that during the narrowed pupil stages, blocking sharp-wave ripples (SWRs) limited the mice’s ability to remember new information.
It is also found that the brain has an intermediate (中间的) period that separates new learning from old knowledge. The results suggest that the brain can multitask distinct cognitive processes during sleep to facilitate continuous learning without interference. It’s like new learning, old knowledge, new learning, old knowledge, shifting slowly throughout sleep.
The implications of the study are far-reaching: such a non-invasive means of monitoring brain function may help treat memory issues and boost memory, for example. The study also supports the hypothesis (假说) that human brains and computer systems may significantly forget old information. Catastrophic forgetting, known in AI, is an area where machines still lag behind biology. What’s more, the findings provide a potential solution for preventing catastrophic interference while enabling memory integration in both biological and artificial neural networks.
Despite the many similarities between human and mouse brains, similar studies need to be conducted in humans to verify these results.

To an outsider, any culture can seem confusing. And the UK’s got a thing or two that raises a few eyebrows. However, understand the why and things might be less puzzling. 16 .
In a world where 61％of nations drive on the right, Brits drive on the left.Why Most people think it goes back to Medieval, maybe even Roman times. 17 when you remember that right-handed people wear a sword on their left hip.Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon arm toward your opponent, who would be on your right.This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left.
Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old-fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water, the other cold. 18 . So, why this oddity It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution.Drinkable cold water came from a mains supply, but hot water came from attic tanks and was not considered suitable for consumption. So they were kept apart.
Millions of people drink tea worldwide, but the odd Brits put milk in theirs.Why This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century when tea was first imposed.For the majority of Brits, the cups available couldn’t stand the heat of the boiling water and would break, so milk was added first. 19 . And this practical tweak soon became a national habit.
20 . As you can see, these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left-hand driving, two-tap sinks and tea with milk.Even if they still seem strange, at least now you’re in the know.
A. This makes it difficult to improve
B. There is a method to the madness
C. This unusual behavior makes sense
D. You can know the origins of the practices
E. Either can make washing very uncomfortable
F. This cooled the cup enough to resist the boiling water
G. Here are the reasons for three of Britain’s more puzzling practices
