They thought it was going to be easy. A piece of cake. The band, Suenalo, were excited that they would present their skills to a group of troubled youth at a detention center(少管所).
They arrived at the invitation of a friend, who was an adviser at the center. He had mentioned a career day where members of the community came to speak to the teens about their jobs. Usually the speakers were bankers or lawyers, so he thought it would be interesting for the kids to meet some musicians and maybe even hear some music. “They need something cool to get their attention” was the pitch from the friend.
The kids, about 40, were brought in, looking distant, some even angry. Chad Bernstein, the trombone player, started telling the career of a musician from touring to copyright to the business aspects, trying to draw their interest. However, it didn’t. Sensing that they couldn’t win, the band, a little thrown, decided to play one song. With music going, the kids seemed to respond, their heads nodding to the beat. One of them sang a lyric(歌词). The band sang it back. Then, one by one, the musicians began picking up the beat. Chad started free styling a rap, going back and forth with the kid, and in no time, other kids jumped in. Suddenly the band and the kids were creating a song from scratch and all of them were in musical heaven.
For Chad, that moment inspired him to found Guitars Over Guns, an organization that pairs at-risk middle-schoolers with professional musicians. As both music teachers and life coaches, the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. Over time, the kids have dropped their tough fronts and shared personal stories, from family tragedies to ordinary struggles at school with friends.
“So far we’ve helped over 2,700 students. Our work is highly satisfying because it shows us that a music career is more than a job, it can have more impact,” says Chad Bernstein.
4. Why did the band come to the detention center
A. To get attention. B. To display skills. C. To plan their careers. D. To chat about music.
5. What can we learn about the song created on the spot
A. Its lyrics were from the kids. B. Chad owned its copyright.
C. It was composed cooperatively. D. The kids picked up its beat.
6. What does Guitars Over Guns do to help at-risk teens
A. Offer guidance on life. B. Give full school instruction.
C. Relate personal stories. D. Promote awareness of risks.
7. What kind of person is Chad Bernstein
A. Disciplined. B. Purposeful. C. Humorous. D. Traditional.
C
If the benefits of physical activity were made into a pill, everyone would be on it. Studies show that moving improves nearly every aspect of health: boosting sleep, strength, and mental well-being. Still, most people don’t exercise nearly enough. According to data published in 2023, less than a third of U.S. adults get the government-recommended amount of physical activity in their free time: at least 20 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per day, plus a couple of muscle-strengthening sessions each week.
Why is it so tough to get people to do something so good for them Physical limitations, health problems and modern life are certainly factors for many people. But research suggests there’s another factor: our brains don’t want us to exercise. For most of human existence, people had to be physically active to carry out the basic functions of life, such as finding food. Humans evolved (进化) to tolerate a high level of activity-but also to conserve energy for when movement was unnecessary, explains Daniel Lieberman, a human evolutionary biologist. As a society, we no longer move much in daily life, but the evolutionary instinct (本能) to conserve energy remains, Lieberman says. “That voice ‘I don’t want to exercise,’ is completely normal and natural,” he says.
Physical-activity researcher Matthieu Boisgontier demonstrated that phenomenon in a 2018study. He gave people control of a digital avatar (化身) while they were connected to brain-activity monitors. They were instructed to move the avatar away from images of sedentary (久坐的) behavior that appeared on screen and toward images of physical activity. The study found that avoiding sedentary behavior took more brain power, suggesting that we have an “automatic tendency” to pick relaxing over moving.
That conclusion shows up repeatedly in research. Studies show, for example, that people consistently choose to take a lift instead of the stairs. “That natural instinct isn’t bad-it’s just that modern life gives us so many chances to give in to our preference for rest that we have reached an extreme that is no longer beneficial to our health,” Boisgontier says.
8. What do data published in 2023 suggest
A. U. S. adults have poor health awareness. B. The recommended activities are impractical.
C. Most Americans lack sufficient physical activity. D. Muscle-strengthening sessions deserve attention.
9. What makes people unwilling to exercise according to Lieberman
A. The physical limitations. B. The basic structure of the brain.
C. The convenient modern life. D. The natural energy-saving tendency.
10. What does the underlined part “that phenomenon” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Sedentary behavior took much brain power. B. Most people tend to avoid physical activity.
C. Humans evolved for a high level of activity. D. Brain-related activities attract modern people.
11. What is Boisgontier’s attitude toward people’s physical inactivity
A Doubtful B. Reserved. C. Approving. D. Opposed.
D
Many economists predict 2024 will be the time shoppers tighten their belts. That doesn’t mean people will stop spending, say retail (零售) analysts. But it will change what they choose to buy. With a slowing job market, global consumers are likely to move away from more high-priced purchases and focus instead on smaller, less expensive treats.
The economic uncertainty means that consumers are becoming more discriminating about their purchases, says Ethan Chermofsky, senior vice president of marketing at intelligence platform Placer. ai. “There are the things we decide are necessary, and then there’s another category of things that aren’t necessary but that we consider affordable luxuries, he says. This desire for these “affordable luxuries” is common in difficult economic times. Some economists refer to the phenomenon as the “lipstick index”: a small economic increase led by budget-minded consumers seeking out relatively affordable splurges (挥霍), like small cosmetics (化妆品).
Analysts at Deloitte say consumers will spend on little luxuries like specialty coffees and snacks as well. Additionally, stressed-out shoppers are prioritizing small splurge purchases for wellness and personal care.
As retailers see shoppers turning to little luxuries, they’re offering more and more of them. Target, for example, has staked a flag in what they refer to as “affordable joy”, which includes a select ion of self-care and cosmetic products, along with wellness-centric beauty products. Beyond diversifying their offerings, stores are also bringing in luxury-feeling products at lower price points to appeal to more consumers.
Ethan says not every shopper will shift their spending to little luxuries-but even those who are still longing for the “must-haves” of social media will also look to get a deal. They want the feeling of purchasing lower-priced affordable treats. To get these goods shoppers are likely to tap into the re-sale market for designer items at a more reasonable price. They want things that make them feel good about themselves-they just want to do it without breaking the bank.
12. What can affordable luxuries be
A. Inexpensive daily necessities. B. High-end products.
C. Reasonably-priced designer items. D. High-priced purchases.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The strategies retailers use. B. The joy businesses offer.
C. The competition stores face. D. The products consumers buy.
14. What do most shoppers seek according to Ethan
A. Social-media deals. B. World-famous brands.
C. Second-hand bargains. D. Budget-friendly pleasures.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Lipstick Index: Where Does It Lead Us B. Must-have Treats: A Future Spending Trend
C. Affordable Joy: Will We Fall Into The Trap D. Little Luxuries: A Driving Force Behind Consumption

Is a moviegoer different than a movie-lover I’d say so. You can love a movie by watching it at home. ____16____. I’ve spent a lot of time talking to people about movies. By listening to what they say, I can report they only share one thing in common: they go out.

They may want to forget something, or escape from the lives they are leading. Or they may want to see a film they liked years ago. ____19____, they are the hopeless addicts who, quite simply, like movies.

Have you ever been so depressed that you can’t sleep You also can’t eat. You can’t read. You have no friends to call up and nothing is good on TV. So you sigh, press your face down harder into your pillow, and shed a few tears.
This was my life two years ago. I had just turned 14 but already found life a struggle. As I lay in my bed one Saturday, Mom peeked (瞄) into my room to make her regular “Is Emily still alive” check. I knew that if I spent more time like this, she would begin dusting me. After suggesting a few things for me to do that I immediately rejected, Mom made her move, “Emily! Get dressed! I’m taking the dog out for a walk, and you’re coming with me!” “Why ” I protested. “Because it’ll make you feel better.”
The thought of moving was unbearable. I felt as if all of my body parts were weighed down by tons of bricks I couldn’t remember the last time I had gone outside. Somehow I found the strength to slip on a pair of jeans and a black sweatshirt. Mom was waiting at the door, leash (狗绳) in hand and dog at her side.
Then we stepped outside. It was a warm March day and it had been a long time since the warmth of the sun had touched my cheeks. Mom led the dog and me down some dirt paths, through a big field and reached Halsey Pond. But the signs of spring had yet to appear and the scene was rather colorless throughout the entire journey.
“I’m tired! It’s boring, Mom! When can we go home ” “Not yet,” she’d say. Mom stopped to say hi to every jogger, dog walker, runner, and bicyclist who passed us. Sometimes she would get into a conversation. They would talk about weather, dogs, and all small talk topics. She seemed happy, and was literally glowing (容光焕发). After walking for what seemed an age, Mom finally said it was time to go back.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

Sensing that they couldn’t win, the band, a little thrown, decided to play one song. With music going, the kids seemed to respond, their heads nodding to the beat. One of them sang a lyric(歌词). The band sang it back. Then, one by one, the musicians began picking up the beat. Chad started free styling a rap, going back and forth with the kid, and in no time, other kids jumped in. Suddenly the band and the kids were creating a song from scratch and all of them were in musical heaven.
For Chad, that moment inspired him to found Guitars Over Guns, an organization that pairs at-risk middle-schoolers with professional musicians. As both music teachers and life coaches, the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. Over time, the kids have dropped their tough fronts and shared personal stories, from family tragedies to ordinary struggles at school with friends.
“So far we’ve helped over 2,700 students. Our work is highly satisfying because it shows us that a music career is more than a job, it can have more impact,” says Chad Bernstein.

If the benefits of physical activity were made into a pill, everyone would be on it. Studies show that moving improves nearly every aspect of health: boosting sleep, strength, and mental well-being. Still, most people don’t exercise nearly enough. According to data published in 2023, less than a third of U.S. adults get the government-recommended amount of physical activity in their free time: at least 20 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per day, plus a couple of muscle-strengthening sessions each week.
Why is it so tough to get people to do something so good for them Physical limitations, health problems and modern life are certainly factors for many people. But research suggests there’s another factor: our brains don’t want us to exercise. For most of human existence, people had to be physically active to carry out the basic functions of life, such as finding food. Humans evolved (进化) to tolerate a high level of activity-but also to conserve energy for when movement was unnecessary, explains Daniel Lieberman, a human evolutionary biologist. As a society, we no longer move much in daily life, but the evolutionary instinct (本能) to conserve energy remains, Lieberman says. “That voice ‘I don’t want to exercise,’ is completely normal and natural,” he says.
Physical-activity researcher Matthieu Boisgontier demonstrated that phenomenon in a 2018study. He gave people control of a digital avatar (化身) while they were connected to brain-activity monitors. They were instructed to move the avatar away from images of sedentary (久坐的) behavior that appeared on screen and toward images of physical activity. The study found that avoiding sedentary behavior took more brain power, suggesting that we have an “automatic tendency” to pick relaxing over moving.
That conclusion shows up repeatedly in research. Studies show, for example, that people consistently choose to take a lift instead of the stairs. “That natural instinct isn’t bad-it’s just that modern life gives us so many chances to give in to our preference for rest that we have reached an extreme that is no longer beneficial to our health,” Boisgontier says.
8. What do data published in 2023 suggest
A. U. S. adults have poor health awareness. B. The recommended activities are impractical.
C. Most Americans lack sufficient physical activity. D. Muscle-strengthening sessions deserve attention.
9. What makes people unwilling to exercise according to Lieberman
A. The physical limitations. B. The basic structure of the brain.
C. The convenient modern life. D. The natural energy-saving tendency.
10. What does the underlined part “that phenomenon” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Sedentary behavior took much brain power. B. Most people tend to avoid physical activity.
C. Humans evolved for a high level of activity. D. Brain-related activities attract modern people.
11. What is Boisgontier’s attitude toward people’s physical inactivity
A. Doubtful B. Reserved. C. Approving. D. Opposed.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了数据表明大多数美国人缺乏足够的体育活动，文章分析了人们喜欢久坐的原因和专家对此的看法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“According to data published in 2023, less than a third of U.S. adults get the government-recommended amount of physical activity in their free time: at least 20 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per day, plus a couple of muscle-strengthening sessions each week.(根据2023年公布的数据，不到三分之一的美国成年人在空闲时间进行了政府推荐的体育锻炼：每天至少20分钟的中等强度有氧运动，每周再加上几次肌肉强化训练)”可知，2023年公布的数据表明大多数美国人缺乏足够的体育活动。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“As a society, we no longer move much in daily life, but the evolutionary instinct (本能) to conserve energy remains, Lieberman says. “That voice ‘I don’t want to exercise,’ is completely normal and natural,” he says.(利伯曼说，作为一个社会，我们在日常生活中不再经常活动，但节约能量的进化本能仍然存在。“那种‘我不想锻炼’的声音是完全正常和自然的，”他说)”可知，利伯曼认为，是自然节能趋势让人们不愿意锻炼。故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“That voice ‘I don’t want to exercise,’ is completely normal and natural(那种‘我不想锻炼’的声音是完全正常和自然的)”以及倒数第二段“He gave people control of a digital avatar (化身) while they were connected to brain-activity monitors. They were instructed to move the avatar away from images of sedentary (久坐的) behavior that appeared on screen and toward images of physical activity. The study found that avoiding sedentary behavior took more brain power, suggesting that we have an “automatic tendency” to pick relaxing over moving.(他让人们在与大脑活动监测器相连的同时控制一个数字化身。他们被指示将虚拟形象从屏幕上出现的久坐行为的图像移到身体活动的图像。研究发现，避免久坐不动需要更多的脑力，这表明我们有一种选择放松而不是运动的“自动倾向”)”可知，人们喜欢久坐，这是完全正常和自然的本能，而后文的研究则证明了“久坐的行为需要更多的脑力”这一现象。故划线词意思是“久坐的行为需要许多的脑力”。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““That natural instinct isn’t bad-it’s just that modern life gives us so many chances to give in to our preference for rest that we have reached an extreme that is no longer beneficial to our health,” Boisgontier says.(“这种自然本能并不是坏事，只是现代生活给了我们太多的机会去满足我们对休息的偏好，以至于我们已经达到了一个对健康不再有益的极端，”Boisgontier说)”可推知，Boisgontier对人们缺乏运动的态度是反对。故选D。
D
Many economists predict 2024 will be the time shoppers tighten their belts. That doesn’t mean people will stop spending, say retail (零售) analysts. But it will change what they choose to buy. With a slowing job market, global consumers are likely to move away from more high-priced purchases and focus instead on smaller, less expensive treats.
The economic uncertainty means that consumers are becoming more discriminating about their purchases, says Ethan Chermofsky, senior vice president of marketing at intelligence platform Placer. ai. “There are the things we decide are necessary, and then there’s another category of things that aren’t necessary but that we consider affordable luxuries, he says. This desire for these “affordable luxuries” is common in difficult economic times. Some economists refer to the phenomenon as the “lipstick index”: a small economic increase led by budget-minded consumers seeking out relatively affordable splurges (挥霍), like small cosmetics (化妆品).
Analysts at Deloitte say consumers will spend on little luxuries like specialty coffees and snacks as well. Additionally, stressed-out shoppers are prioritizing small splurge purchases for wellness and personal care.
As retailers see shoppers turning to little luxuries, they’re offering more and more of them. Target, for example, has staked a flag in what they refer to as “affordable joy”, which includes a select ion of self-care and cosmetic products, along with wellness-centric beauty products. Beyond diversifying their offerings, stores are also bringing in luxury-feeling products at lower price points to appeal to more consumers.
Ethan says not every shopper will shift their spending to little luxuries-but even those who are still longing for the “must-haves” of social media will also look to get a deal. They want the feeling of purchasing lower-priced affordable treats. To get these goods, shoppers are likely to tap into the re-sale market for designer items at a more reasonable price. They want things that make them feel good about themselves-they just want to do it without breaking the bank.
12. What can affordable luxuries be
A. Inexpensive daily necessities. B. High-end products.
C. Reasonably-priced designer items. D. High-priced purchases.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The strategies retailers use. B. The joy businesses offer.
C. The competition stores face. D. The products consumers buy.
14. What do most shoppers seek according to Ethan
A. Social-media deals. B. World-famous brands.
C. Second-hand bargains. D. Budget-friendly pleasures.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Lipstick Index: Where Does It Lead Us B. Must-have Treats: A Future Spending Trend
C. Affordable Joy: Will We Fall Into The Trap D. Little Luxuries: A Driving Force Behind Consumption
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释是什么“口红指数”以及出现这种现象的原因。

【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“As retailers see shoppers turning to little luxuries, they’re offering more and more of them. Target, for example, has staked a flag in what they refer to as “affordable joy”, which includes a select ion of self-care and cosmetic products, along with wellness-centric beauty products. Beyond diversifying their offerings, stores are also bringing in luxury-feeling products at lower price points to appeal to more consumers.(当零售商看到消费者转向小奢侈品时，他们提供了越来越多的小奢侈品。例如，塔吉特在他们所谓的“负担得起的快乐”上打了个旗号，其中包括一系列精选的自我护理和化妆品，以及以健康为中心的美容产品。除了使产品多样化，商店还推出了价格较低的奢侈品，以吸引更多的消费者)”可知，第四段的主要内容是零售商使用的策略。故选A。
【14题详解】
理解理解题。根据最后一段“Ethan says not every shopper will shift their spending to little luxuries-but even those who are still longing for the “must-haves” of social media will also look to get a deal. They want the feeling of purchasing lower-priced affordable treats.(伊桑说，并不是每个购物者都会把他们的消费转移到小奢侈品上，但即使是那些仍然渴望获得社交媒体“必需品”的人，也会希望得到优惠。他们想要的是购买价格更低、负担得起的食物的感觉)”可知，根据伊森的说法，大多数购物者都在寻找预算友好的乐趣。故选D。
【15题详解】

Is a moviegoer different than a movie-lover I’d say so. You can love a movie by watching it at home. ____16____. I’ve spent a lot of time talking to people about movies. By listening to what they say I can report they only share one thing in common: they go out.
I’ve thought about two views of the moviegoer lately.
The first view comes from Roland Barthes. Most often, his moviegoers don’t go to the movies for a distinct purpose. ____17____. They are bored. Once they get inside, they can’t help but sink into a relaxed state. When they leave the movie theater, these moviegoers don’t want to talk to anyone about the movie. ____18____. Barthes sees them as a lonely being, one who is introspective(自省的). I think some of us use movie theaters to retreat inside ourselves.
The second view comes from the Clark Theater manager, Bruce Trinz. When people go to the movies they go for a certain personal motive. They may want to forget something, or escape from the lives they are leading. Or they may want to see a film they liked years ago. ____19____, they are the hopeless addicts who, quite simply, like movies. The only thing I would challenge in this definition is the word hopeless. ____20____, but they come to the movies filled with hope. They may not be able to define what they hope to experience, but they will know it when they feel it.
A. Whatever motive they have
B. To be a moviegoer, you have to go out

47. 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。
Have you ever been so depressed that you can’t sleep You also can’t eat. You can’t read. You have no friends to call up and nothing is good on TV. So you sigh, press your face down harder into your pillow, and shed a few tears.
This was my life two years ago. I had just turned 14 but already found life a struggle. As I lay in my bed one Saturday, Mom peeked (瞄) into my room to make her regular “Is Emily still alive” check. I knew that if I spent more time like this, she would begin dusting me. After suggesting a few things for me to do that I immediately rejected, Mom made her move, “Emily! Get dressed! I’m taking the dog out for a walk, and you’re coming with me!” “Why ” I protested. “Because it’ll make you feel better.”
The thought of moving was unbearable. I felt as if all of my body parts were weighed down by tons of bricks I couldn’t remember the last time I had gone outside. Somehow I found the strength to slip on a pair of jeans and a black sweatshirt. Mom was waiting at the door, leash (狗绳) in hand and dog at her side.
Then, we stepped outside. It was a warm March day and it had been a long time since the warmth of the sun had touched my cheeks. Mom led the dog and me down some dirt paths, through a big field and reached Halsey Pond. But the signs of spring had yet to appear and the scene was rather colorless throughout the entire journey.
“I’m tired! It’s boring, Mom! When can we go home ” “Not yet,” she’d say. Mom stopped to say hi to every jogger, dog walker, runner, and bicyclist who passed us. Sometimes she would get into a conversation. They would talk about weather, dogs, and all small talk topics. She seemed happy, and was literally glowing (容光焕发). After walking for what seemed an age, Mom finally said it was time to go back.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
When I got home, a new feeling seemed to be awakened. The heaviness that had weighed me down before seemed to have lifted, if only slightly. The simple act of being outside, feeling the warmth of the sun, and hearing the chirping of birds had sparked something inside me. It was a glimmer of hope, a tiny ray of light in the darkness of my depression. I realized that maybe, just maybe, there was still something worth living for.
Paragraph 2:
A new Saturday found me asking Mom if I could take the dog out. This time, it was me who suggested the walk. As we strolled through the familiar paths, I noticed the subtle changes in the scenery. The trees were starting to bud, flowers were beginning to bloom, and the pond was alive with the sounds of frogs and insects. It was as if nature itself was coming alive, mirroring the newfound sense of life stirring within me. With each step, I felt a little lighter, a little more alive. And as we returned home, I realized that sometimes, the simplest moments can have the most profound impact on our lives.
