Byung-jin Park, a 36-year-old punk musician from Seoul, understands the power of doing nothing. In May, he and his bandmates outlasted a hundred competitors to win South Korea’s 2025 Space Out competition, an annual event where participants are judged on their ability to remain calm and motionless for 90 minutes. No phones, no conversation, no nodding off, just existing.
Launched in 2014 by visual artist Woopsyang as a public art project criticizing modern burnout, the competition has evolved into a cultural ritual along Seoul’s Han River, mixing performance art, mindfulness, and a quiet challenge to the popular belief that silence equals stagnation (停滞). Participants wear heart rate monitors and winners are determined through a combination of biometric (生理数据) calmness and audience votes.
“As time passed, I started to forget where I was, “says Park. “It felt like my body had disappeared.” Park’s win is more than just a quirky (搞怪的) viral story. It reflects a deeper hunger for rest in a society overwhelmed by noise. A 2014 University of Virginia study found that many people preferred mild electric shocks over being alone with their thoughts for even fifteen minutes. But science suggests that stillness has value.
Spacing Out activates· what neuroscientists call the brain’s default mode network — linked to creativity, emotional processing, and problem-solving. “In an overstimulated modern society, taking the time to reflect about one’s inner self and emotions can allow people to control their thoughts and actions,” says Hanson Park, a psychiatrist and a professor at Seoul National University’s Department of Anthropology. “This process can reduce stress-related hormones (激素) and in the long term can also be effective in relieving anxiety or depression.”
Byung-jin’s winning strategy — slow abdominal (腹部的) breathing, focusing on a single point and letting other thoughts disappear — shows how a simple skill can be surprisingly transformative. Motionlessness won’t solve all your problems, but you will feel your thoughts transform. It’s super refreshing.
24. What is the Space Out competition mainly about
A. Testing participants’ musical talents. B. Challenging people to stay still and calm.
C. Promoting social interaction among strangers. D. Encouraging creative performance art.
25. Why does the author mention the University of Virginia study in paragraph 3
A. To show that stillness is difficult for many people.
B. To explain the scientific method behind the competition.
C. To criticize modern society’s addiction to technology.
D. To demonstrate the harmful effects of electric shocks.
26. According to Hanson Park, what is the benefit of “spacing out”
A. It improves physical fitness. B. It enhances social connections.
C. It helps reduce worry or pressure. D. It increases competitive abilities.
27. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude towards the Space Out competition
A. Doubtful. B. Neutral. C. Confused. D. Appreciative.
C
You can’t beat a holiday, but would you ever consider going away for just one day Extreme day trips are a new trend that pack international adventure into just 24 hours. It might sound exhausting, but for lots of people, the appeal lies in time efficiency, budget-friendly prices and the excitement of going somewhere and doing something completely new.
It’s possible to zip to cities in your own country to experience new culture, food and geography without ever leaving “home”, though many European extreme daytrippers go abroad. Monica Stott, a travel blogger from the UK, has taken day trips to Reykjavik in Iceland, Milan in Italy and Lisbon in Portugal, all without staying overnight. It all started for her when she flew over to Ireland for work meetings. She told the BBC, “I’d quite often pop over for a one or two-hour meeting and come home. Then I realized I could stay and make a full day of it.”
Social media groups advertising extreme day trips are now booming. These groups offer a supportive community for like-minded travellers and are packed with tips and destination ideas. However, it’s not all fun and games. Hours of the day can easily be taken up with long airport transfers, traffic jams, and in many big cities, there isn’t enough time to see everything you want to. Critics also point to the environmental cost. Flying significantly contributes to global emissions (排放) and makes carbon-neutral air travel aims, such as the UK’s Jet Zero, much less likely to succeed.
If other forms of transport can be used, such as trains, that can be a better alternative for the environment. Train stations are often located in city centres, so you can be right in the heart of the city in much less time. So, if you’re tempted, pack light, plan smart and consider the best way to travel for the environment and limited time you have.
28. What does the underlined word “zip” mean in paragraph 2
A. To close a bag quickly. B. To travel rapidly.
C. To explore thoroughly. D. To hesitate about a decision.
29. How did Monica Stott begin taking extreme day trips
A. Through suggestions from social media groups. B. After visiting Reykjavik, Milan, and Lisbon.
C. By extending her business trips to Ireland. D. To avoid overnight accommodation costs.
30. What can be inferred about using trains for extreme day trips
A. They are always cheaper than flights.
B. Social media groups strongly recommend them.
C. They are only practical within the same country.
D. They reduce transfer time and environmental impact.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article
A. To promote extreme day trips as a perfect travel solution.
B. To analyze the benefits and drawbacks of extreme day trips.
C. To criticize the environmental impact of short-term flights.
D. To encourage travelers to use trains instead of airplanes.
D
What constitutes a happy life This profound question has puzzled humanity for centuries. In 1938, Harvard researchers launched a groundbreaking study to uncover the answer. They tracked the health and life details of over 700 individuals worldwide, surveying them every two years for 85 years. The findings were striking: Sustained happiness comes not from wealth, career achievements, exercise, or diet, but from strong social relationships.Friendships and communities foster longer, more fulfilling lives, while isolation (孤立) leads to decline. Essentially,“social fitness” is the cornerstone of well-being.
Yet, in Britain today, opportunities for social fitness are worsening rapidly, a trend requiring urgent attention. We socialize less, relying on the internet for tasks once done in person, while economic pressures like inflation (通胀) hold back spending. High streets and shops suffer as a result. A CGA Nielsen report reveals 65 nightclubs closed between December 2023 and June 2024, part of a broader loss of 480 over four years. 239 pubs disappeared in England and Wales in early 2024.
For those preferring quieter venues, theaters and museums face risks. Without major funding, 40% of UK theaters could be shut down in five years. Museums struggle with closures, staff cuts, and reduced hours — the sector’s toughest era in two decades, as noted by Museums Association director Sharon Heal. Even free community hubs like public libraries are fading: Over 180 council-run ones have closed or shifted to volunteers since 2016.Churches, too, see declining attendance.
However, some resist the tide. Topping & Company bookshops in Bath and Edinburgh offer tea alongside exhibited books, stimulating conversations and community. Journalist-turned-bookseller Tom Rowley in south London fights decrease with wine for customers, emphasizing the irreplaceable warmth of in-person interactions over online alternatives.
True joy arises from deep recognition in social settings — being seen and heard by friends or engaging groups.While pubs, clubs, museums, or shops don’t guarantee bonds, they facilitate them, building new ties or strengthening old ones. Losing these spaces risks cutting off the vital thread of social connection, the true key to happiness.
32. What is the tendency according to paragraph 2
A. Nightclubs coming to an end. B. Tasks finished by teams.
C. More spending on health. D. Less frequent social engagement.
33. According to Sharon Heal, what challenges are museums facing currently
A. Expansion of opening hours and increased staff hiring.
B. Closure, loss of expert staff, and restricted hours.
C. Competition from online virtual tours.
D. Overfunding from government investments.
34. What can be inferred from the author’s description of Topping & Company bookshops
A. They are struggling due to the rise of online shopping.
B. They promote social interaction through simple gestures.
C. They focus exclusively on selling rare and expensive books.
D. They have closed branches in Bath and Edinburgh recently.
35. What is the best title of the text
A. Genuine Joy and Health. B. No More Social Settings.
C. The Decline of Social Spaces for Happiness. D. The True Meaning of Social Fitness.

We had a wonderful day in the countryside, enjoying wildflowers and filling our car with their vibrant beauty. As the sun began to set, we set off on our way back home.
On the route, my wife’s eyes caught sight of a tall and narrow cupboard outside a furniture shop. “Buy it” she exclaimed excitedly. “We can carry it home on the roof rack (行李架). I’ve always dreamed of having one like this.” What could I do but agree Ten minutes later, I was 20 lighter in the pocket, and the heavy, six-foot-long cupboard was securely tied to the roof rack.
As darkness gathered, I drove slowly. Strangely, other drivers were unusually polite that evening, giving us plenty of space. Even the police stopped traffic to let us through. I thought carrying furniture was a pretty smart move.
After a while, my wife noticed the long line of cars behind us. “Why aren’t they overtaking ” she wondered. Just then, a police car overtook us. The two officers inside looked at us with serious expressions as they passed, but then, they kindly led us through the rush-hour traffic.
The police car stopped at our village church. One officer approached me and asked, “Right, sir, do you need any more help ” I was a bit puzzled but thanked him. When he stared at our car, first at the flowers and then at the cupboard, he burst out laughing. “It’s a cupboard! We thought it was something else.” My wife started laughing too, and then I got it. I smiled at the officer and drove home as fast as I could.
As I pulled into our driveway, my neighbors, who had gathered outside for a chat, stared in amazement at the enormous cupboard on top of our car. Their eyes widened, and a few of them even started to laugh. “What on earth have you brought back ” one of them called out.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My wife and I couldn’t help but laugh along.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We stood there, realizing that this cupboard wasn’t just a piece of furniture.

Byung-jin Park, a 36-year-old punk musician from Seoul, understands the power of doing nothing. In May, he and his bandmates outlasted a hundred competitors to win South Korea’s 2025 Space Out competition, an annual event where participants are judged on their ability to remain calm and motionless for 90 minutes. No phones, no conversation, no nodding off, just existing.
Launched in 2014 by visual artist Woopsyang as a public art project criticizing modern burnout, the competition has evolved into a cultural ritual along Seoul’s Han River, mixing performance art, mindfulness, and a quiet challenge to the popular belief that silence equals stagnation (停滞). Participants wear heart rate monitors and winners are determined through a combination of biometric (生理数据) calmness and audience votes.
“As time passed, I started to forget where I was, “says Park. “It felt like my body had disappeared.” Park’s win is more than just a quirky (搞怪的) viral story. It reflects a deeper hunger for rest in a society overwhelmed by noise. A 2014 University of Virginia study found that many people preferred mild electric shocks over being alone with their thoughts for even fifteen minutes. But science suggests that stillness has value.
Spacing Out activates· what neuroscientists call the brain’s default mode network — linked to creativity, emotional processing, and problem-solving. “In an overstimulated modern society, taking the time to reflect about one’s inner self and emotions can allow people to control their thoughts and actions,” says Hanson Park, a psychiatrist and a professor at Seoul National University’s Department of Anthropology. “This process can reduce stress-related hormones (激素) and in the long term can also be effective in relieving anxiety or depression.”
Byung-jin’s winning strategy — slow abdominal (腹部的) breathing, focusing on a single point and letting other thoughts disappear — shows how a simple skill can be surprisingly transformative. Motionlessness won’t solve all your problems, but you will feel your thoughts transform. It’s super refreshing.
24. What is the Space Out competition mainly about
A. Testing participants’ musical talents. B. Challenging people to stay still and calm.
C. Promoting social interaction among strangers. D. Encouraging creative performance art.
25. Why does the author mention the University of Virginia study in paragraph 3
A. To show that stillness is difficult for many people.
B. To explain the scientific method behind the competition.
C. To criticize modern society’s addiction to technology.
D. To demonstrate the harmful effects of electric shocks.
26. According to Hanson Park, what is the benefit of “spacing out”
A. It improves physical fitness. B. It enhances social connections.
C. It helps reduce worry or pressure. D. It increases competitive abilities.
27. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude towards the Space Out competition
A. Doubtful. B. Neutral. C. Confused. D. Appreciative.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D
C
You can’t beat a holiday, but would you ever consider going away for just one day Extreme day trips are a new trend that pack international adventure into just 24 hours. It might sound exhausting, but for lots of people, the appeal lies in time efficiency, budget-friendly prices and the excitement of going somewhere and doing something completely new.
It’s possible to zip to cities in your own country to experience new culture, food and geography without ever leaving “home”, though many European extreme daytrippers go abroad. Monica Stott, a travel blogger from the UK, has taken day trips to Reykjavik in Iceland, Milan in Italy and Lisbon in Portugal, all without staying overnight. It all started for her when she flew over to Ireland for work meetings. She told the BBC, “I’d quite often pop over for a one or two-hour meeting and come home. Then I realized I could stay and make a full day of it.”
Social media groups advertising extreme day trips are now booming. These groups offer a supportive community for like-minded travellers and are packed with tips and destination ideas. However, it’s not all fun and games. Hours of the day can easily be taken up with long airport transfers, traffic jams, and in many big cities, there isn’t enough time to see everything you want to. Critics also point to the environmental cost. Flying significantly contributes to global emissions (排放) and makes carbon-neutral air travel aims, such as the UK’s Jet Zero, much less likely to succeed.
If other forms of transport can be used, such as trains, that can be a better alternative for the environment. Train stations are often located in city centres, so you can be right in the heart of the city in much less time. So, if you’re tempted, pack light, plan smart and consider the best way to travel for the environment and limited time you have.
28. What does the underlined word “zip” mean in paragraph 2
A. To close a bag quickly. B. To travel rapidly.
C. To explore thoroughly. D. To hesitate about a decision.
29. How did Monica Stott begin taking extreme day trips
A. Through suggestions from social media groups. B. After visiting Reykjavik, Milan, and Lisbon.
C. By extending her business trips to Ireland. D. To avoid overnight accommodation costs.
30. What can be inferred about using trains for extreme day trips
A. They are always cheaper than flights.
B. Social media groups strongly recommend them.
C. They are only practical within the same country.
D. They reduce transfer time and environmental impact.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article
A. To promote extreme day trips as a perfect travel solution.
B. To analyze the benefits and drawbacks of extreme day trips.
C. To criticize the environmental impact of short-term flights.
D. To encourage travelers to use trains instead of airplanes.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. B
D
What constitutes a happy life This profound question has puzzled humanity for centuries. In 1938, Harvard researchers launched a groundbreaking study to uncover the answer. They tracked the health and life details of over 700 individuals worldwide, surveying them every two years for 85 years. The findings were striking: Sustained happiness comes not from wealth, career achievements, exercise, or diet, but from strong social relationships.Friendships and communities foster longer, more fulfilling lives, while isolation (孤立) leads to decline. Essentially,“social fitness” is the cornerstone of well-being.
Yet, in Britain today, opportunities for social fitness are worsening rapidly, a trend requiring urgent attention. We socialize less, relying on the internet for tasks once done in person, while economic pressures like inflation (通胀) hold back spending. High streets and shops suffer as a result. A CGA Nielsen report reveals 65 nightclubs closed between December 2023 and June 2024, part of a broader loss of 480 over four years. 239 pubs disappeared in England and Wales in early 2024.
For those preferring quieter venues, theaters and museums face risks. Without major funding, 40% of UK theaters could be shut down in five years. Museums struggle with closures, staff cuts, and reduced hours — the sector’s toughest era in two decades, as noted by Museums Association director Sharon Heal. Even free community hubs like public libraries are fading: Over 180 council-run ones have closed or shifted to volunteers since 2016.Churches, too, see declining attendance.
However, some resist the tide. Topping & Company bookshops in Bath and Edinburgh offer tea alongside exhibited books, stimulating conversations and community. Journalist-turned-bookseller Tom Rowley in south London fights decrease with wine for customers, emphasizing the irreplaceable warmth of in-person interactions over online alternatives.
True joy arises from deep recognition in social settings — being seen and heard by friends or engaging groups.While pubs, clubs, museums, or shops don’t guarantee bonds, they facilitate them, building new ties or strengthening old ones. Losing these spaces risks cutting off the vital thread of social connection, the true key to happiness.
32. What is the tendency according to paragraph 2
A. Nightclubs coming to an end. B. Tasks finished by teams.
C. More spending on health. D. Less frequent social engagement.
33. According to Sharon Heal, what challenges are museums facing currently
A. Expansion of opening hours and increased staff hiring.
B. Closure, loss of expert staff, and restricted hours.
C. Competition from online virtual tours.
D. Overfunding from government investments.
34. What can be inferred from the author’s description of Topping & Company bookshops
A. They are struggling due to the rise of online shopping.
B. They promote social interaction through simple gestures.
C. They focus exclusively on selling rare and expensive books.
D. They have closed branches in Bath and Edinburgh recently.
35. What is the best title of the text
A. Genuine Joy and Health. B. No More Social Settings.
C. The Decline of Social Spaces for Happiness. D. The True Meaning of Social Fitness.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B 35. C

67. 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。
We had a wonderful day in the countryside, enjoying wildflowers and filling our car with their vibrant beauty. As the sun began to set, we set off on our way back home.
On the route, my wife’s eyes caught sight of a tall and narrow cupboard outside a furniture shop. “Buy it” she exclaimed excitedly. “We can carry it home on the roof rack (行李架). I’ve always dreamed of having one like this.” What could I do but agree Ten minutes later, I was 20 lighter in the pocket, and the heavy, six-foot-long cupboard was securely tied to the roof rack.
As darkness gathered, I drove slowly. Strangely, other drivers were unusually polite that evening, giving us plenty of space. Even the police stopped traffic to let us through. I thought carrying furniture was a pretty smart move.
After a while, my wife noticed the long line of cars behind us. “Why aren’t they overtaking ” she wondered. Just then, a police car overtook us. The two officers inside looked at us with serious expressions as they passed, but then, they kindly led us through the rush-hour traffic.
The police car stopped at our village church. One officer approached me and asked, “Right, sir, do you need any more help ” I was a bit puzzled but thanked him. When he stared at our car, first at the flowers and then at the cupboard, he burst out laughing. “It’s a cupboard! We thought it was something else.” My wife started laughing too, and then I got it. I smiled at the officer and drove home as fast as I could.
As I pulled into our driveway, my neighbors, who had gathered outside for a chat, stared in amazement at the enormous cupboard on top of our car. Their eyes widened, and a few of them even started to laugh. “What on earth have you brought back ” one of them called out.

【答案】参考范文
My wife and I couldn’t help but laugh along. We quickly explained the whole story from spotting the cupboard to the misunderstanding with the police. The neighbors roared with laughter, and our little front yard was filled with happiness. After a while, we decided it was time to get the cupboard down. It was no easy task. My wife and I, with the help of a couple of neighbors, struggled and heaved. Finally, with a loud thud, the cupboard landed safely on the ground.
We stood there, realizing that this cupboard wasn’t just a piece of furniture. It was a reminder of an unforgettable adventure, a story that we would tell for years to come. And from that day on, whenever we looked at that cupboard, we would be transported back to that crazy evening on the road, filled with laughter, confusion, and the kindness of strangers.
