Last July 26, at around 11 p. m., an emergency message on the Facebook page caught Callie Clemens’ eye. A tiny black puppy had been spotted running across a road in Spring Branch. Howls had been heard from inside a nearby drain, so there was likely one puppy stuck down there.
Clemens drove to the scene. Once there, she heard desperate cries from underground echoing through the pipes. She grabbed a flashlight from her car and got down. “I was not expecting to go into the drain,” Clemens says. But puppies were down there. “Somebody’s got to do it.”
After lowering herself roughly 7 feet down the drain, Clemens crawled through a tunnel before reaching an area where she could crouch and search. “I heard splashing.” Clemens says. She pointed her flashlight and saw “two sets of eyes looking at me”. Then the dogs ran off. Around midnight, workers from the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) arrived and joined Clemens in the drain. They worked until 3 a. m., trying to track down the dogs. But they were not able to find the two dogs that Clemens had seen.
Clemens was not about to give up. Although venturing down a storm drain is terrifying, Clemens says, “It would never resonate with me to know that I left an animal in there to starve and suffer.” She went home for a few hours of sleep, then went straight back to the drain, joined by several volunteers, including a local engineer who drew a map of the drain system.
After several hours of searching, they finally found one tiny black pup. However, one dog was still left underground. Clemens climbed down the storm drain several more times to look for it, even leaving food, some of which had been eaten. But the fact that Clemens had stopped hearing the dog’s howls made her confident that the puppy found its way out.
24. Why did Callie Clemens drive to the scene
A. To save a puppy. B. To explore a tunnel. C. To control a noise. D. To fix a pipe.
25. What made Callie Clemens decide to go into the drain again
A. The interest in drain system. B. The encouragement from workers.
C. Her sympathy for animals. D. Her curiosity about the puppies.
26. What convinced her that the other dog escaped
A. The untouched food. B. The hand- drawn map.
C. The disappearance of barks. D. The message from volunteers.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Callie Clemens
A. Kind and determined. B. Brave and demanding.
C. Smart and encouraging. D. Honest and adventurous.
C
If you’ve never slept in socks, you might want to give it a try.
Sleeping in socks helps to regulate your body temperature, which can lead to falling asleep faster, waking up less, and sleeping in later, according to research. When your core body temperature is regulated, it makes for better sleep, sleep disorders specialist Breus said.
Temperature plays a role in quality sleep. A drop in core body temperature signals to the body that it’s time to sleep and occurs alongside the release of melatonin—the sleep hormone. Experts suggest keeping your bedroom between 68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit for ample sleep.
Wearing socks and sleeping in a cool room could be the perfect pairing for a high quality night of rest. If you wear socks to sleep, ensure they aren’t so tight that they restrict blood flow, wrote Breus. It’s important the socks are comfortable so they don’t become a sleep distraction. Breus also suggested they be made of breathable fabric s like cotton, linen, or bamboo. And you should opt for a fresh, clean pair, not the ones you wore all day, sleep therapist Michelle Drerup said.
While sleeping in socks is worth a try to get better rest, it’s not a cure- all. If you feel a sensory overload sleeping in socks, research suggests that putting your feet in a warm water bath before bed can give a similar effect. Also, socks aren’t a treatment for insomnia or other sleep problems—you should talk to a medical professional for ongoing issues. And people with circulation (循环) issues should not sleep with socks without talking to their doctor first. Besides, there are other ways to step up your sleep routine, and wake up better rested.
28. What can be inferred from Breus’s opinions
A. Core body temperature depends on socks.
B. Comfortable socks are a sleep cure- all.
C. A better night rest improves blood flow.
D. The selection of socks is significant.
29. What does the phrase “a sensory overload” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. A complete relaxation. B. A strong stimulation.
C. A sense of security. D. A sense of relief.
30. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The function of sleeping in socks. B. The body temperature in sleep.
C. Melatonin’s role in sleep. D. Methods to regulate sleep.
31. What will be talked about next in the passage
A. The necessity of medical consultations.
B. Additional ways to improve sleep quality.
C. The choice of suitable sleepwear materials.
D. The impact of room temperature on sleep patterns.
D
People today are much cleverer than they were in previous generations. A study of 72 countries found that average IQs rose by 2.2 points per decade between 1948 and 2020. This stunning change is known as the Flynn Effect after James Flynn, the scientist who first noticed it. Flynn was initially confused by his discovery. It took millions of years for the brain to evolve. How could it improve so rapidly over just a few decades
The answer is largely that people were becoming better nourished and mentally stimulated. Just as muscles need food and exercise to grow strong, the brain also needs the right nutrients and activity to develop. Kids today are much less likely to be malnourished (营养不良的) than they were in past decades, and more likely to go to school. Yet there is no room for satisfaction. In poor and middle- income countries, many children are still too ill-fed to reach the cognitive potential.
The world grows enough food, but several obstacles stop nutrients getting into young brains. One is war. Families sheltering around cannot risk out to plant or harvest, and some governments intentionally starve certain regions into submission. Another is disease. Hungry children fall sick more often, and the energy they spend battling bugs cannot be devoted to growing brains. Poverty is also a big part of the problem. But global data from UNICEF, an aid agency, show that although half the children with very restricted diets (including no more than two food groups) are indeed from poor families, the other half are not. Other factors, such as poor eating habits, are to blame as well. Research about how to overcome the obstacles is needed.
Some argue that human intelligence will matter less as people entrust (委托) their thinking to artificial intelligence. To assume this would be as foolish as betting 100 years ago that the invention of the car would make it unnecessary to walk. In the workplace, human intelligence and AI will probably assist each other. And brains are for the joy of thinking, as well as earning money. Steven Pinker of Harvard University calls human intelligence “a tailwind (顺风) in life”, helping people adapt rationally to new challenges or a changing environment. For a modest price, the next generation can have a stronger tailwind. It would not only be wrong to refuse them the tailwind. It would be stupid.
32. What can we learn about the Flynn Effect
A. Average IQs have risen fast in the past decades.
B. Intelligence has been stable across generations.
C. People now are as intelligent as their ancestors.
D. Better education leads to improved physical health.
33. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean
A. The Flynn Effect has reached its peak.
B. Global problems continue despite IQ gains.
C. Society values human intelligence less.
D. Malnutrition is merely a result of poverty.
34. What does the author think of artificial intelligence
A. Useless. B. Unique. C. Beneficial. D. Ineffective.
35. What is the best title for the passage
A. Stages of IQ Development B. Secrets to Rising IQs Worldwide
C. Insights Into Global IQ Trend D. Influence of the Flynn Effect

The experience of modern life is a constant stream of review s where criticism is common, which makes us struggle both to give and receive it gracefully. 36
It’s not personal (even when it’s personal).
When criticized, we often make it personal in two ways. 37 Additionally, we interpret criticism as a reflection of our inborn abilities rather than our actions. This tendency, observed even in young children, can lead to reduced self- esteem, mood, and persistence. To settle it, adopting a mindset that separates the feedback from the person giving it can help maintain objectivity and resilience (适应力) in the face of criticism.
38
Once you depersonalize criticism in this way, you can start to see it for what it is: a rare glimpse into what outsiders think about your performance, and thus a potential opportunity to correct course and improve. Studies indicate that actively engaging with feedback improves academic outcomes. If this doesn’t come easily to you, consider forming a critics’ circle with trusted peers to exchange honest feedback and enhance resilience.
Make criticism a gift, never a weapon.
We all have to give criticism from time to time. 39 Research suggests five key elements for providing constructive feedback: the care of the receiver in mind; respectful delivery; good intentions; a pathway to improvement; and appropriate targeting of the receiver’s needs.
Praise in public, criticize in private.
40 He used it to motivate players. Research confirms its effectiveness: public praise boosts motivation by 9%, while private criticism increases motivation by 11% compared to public settings.
A. View criticism as objective feedback.
B. Treat criticism like secret information.
C. We shifts the focus from emotion to analysis.
D. Therefore, we should approach criticism positively.
E. This rule is credited to the football coach Vince Lombardi.
F. We may naturally analyze the critic rather than the criticism.
G. The key to criticizing is to remember it is intended to help, not harm.

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。
Both of my parents have taught me the values of service and compassion from a young age. Growing up, they both chose service professions—my mother as a dedicated nurse and my father as a passionate teacher. They not only worked tirelessly in their respective fields but also spent their nights and weekends volunteering, emphasizing the importance of helping others in need. Their dedication and selflessness gave me a lesson that a life dedicated to serving others is one that is truly fulfilling and meaningful.
Inspired by their examples, I pursued a career in medicine, becoming a physician. For the past 11 years, I have been working closely with the homeless community, providing them with much needed medical care and support. It has been a challenging yet rewarding journey, as I witness firsthand the impact I can make on improving the lives of those who are often overlooked and marginalized (被边缘化).
And my commitment to these things is the spirit that I have passed to my son. I am a proud mother to a boy who shares my enthusiasm for adventures as well as the love for others. He is an enthusiastic bike riders, and I have always encouraged him to pursue his passion while instilling (灌输) in him the values of empathy and kindness.
I vividly remember his first biking race, where he fearlessly took the lead and even managed to catch some air with his daring jumps. It was an exhilarating moment for him, and I couldn’t have been prouder. However, it was the last moment in the race that surprised me that day.
As the race progressed, competitors were approaching the finishing line. My son was still in the lead during the race, with the second-place rider closely behind him. Suddenly, the rider behind him crashed, flying off his bike. The sound of piercing screams filled the air.

第一节范文：
Dear Jack,
I’m thrilled to hear that your school is planning a trip to Chongqing! I wholeheartedly welcome you to my hometown, which is known for its unique culture, delicious food, and breathtaking landscapes.
I suggested visiting two must- see spots: Hongya Cave and Ciqikou Ancient Town. Hongya Cave offers stunning views of the city’s skyline and river, especially at night when it’s beautifully li t up. Ciqikou Ancient Town provides a glimpse into Chongqing’s rich history and traditional culture, with its charming old streets and local crafts. What’s more, please note that Chongqing’s summer can be very hot and humid. Make sure to stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and carry an umbrella for both sun and sudden rain.
Wish you an amazing journey filled with wonderful memories. Enjoy your trip and feel free to reach out if you need any more advice or assistance.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节范文：
Upon hearing this, my son stopped his bicycle and turned to look behind him. He saw the fallen rider clutching his arm in pain. Without hesitation, my son rushed over, his concern evident as he checked on the injured competitor. “Are you okay ” he asked, his voice filled with genuine worry. The other racers sped past them, focusing on the finish line, but my son remained by the fallen rider’s side. He helped him up gently and supported him as they walked together towards the finish line. Despite the pain, the injured rider managed a grateful smile.
In the end, my son missed the chance to win the championship. However, witnessing this act of kindness filled me with immense pride. As we drove home that evening, I couldn’t help but reflect on how our family’s commitment to serving others had truly shaped his character. I recalled how he carefully helped the injured rider to his feet, supporting him as they made their way off the track together. His hands were steady yet gentle, his movements deliberate and comforting. It was moments like these that reaffirmed my belief in the power of leading a life dedicated to helping those in need.

M: Okay… We have a couple of phone s in here. Can you describe yours to me

Attention, students. This is an announcement for all third grade students! Tomorrow is the day when you can choose what musical instrument you want to learn to play in the school band. The gym will be filled with musical instruments for every student to try. When you find an instrument you like, find Ms. Johnson on the other side of the room and tell her your name and what instrument you would like to play in the band. (18) Playing an instrument is a great learning opportunity. Learning to play an instrument teaches you how to practice and how to read music. (19) Many of our students have gone on to play in their high school bands. If you would like to play an instrument in the band, your parents have to pay $50 per year. (20) This fee is due next week. It is for the music books, the cleaning supplies , and the instrument rental (租赁). If you play the guitar, the fee is $10 more because the strings (弦) are very expensive. (20) If you are not able to pay the fee but you would still like to play an instrument this year, please visit Ms. Johnson’s office.

A 篇
21. C 细节查找题。根据文章中“The university features small student- to- teacher scale, creating an enriching atmosphere for you.”可知，该大学以小班授课模式为特色,从而营造了丰富的学习氛围，故选择 C。
22. A 细节查找题。根据文章“Application Deadline Oct 10,2024”可知，申请截止日期是2024年10月10日，故选择A。
23. C 细节查找题。根据文章最后一段“by adding ASU Online courses to your ISA program”及“with more than 2,100 online courses to choose from”可知，通过将ASU在线课程加入到ISA项目中以及有超过2，100门在线课程可供选择，故选择C。A项中的“remove 去除”与原文中的“minimize 使最小化”不符；B项中的“innovative 创新的”在文本中未体现；D项中的“increase增加”也与原文不符。
B 篇
24. A 推理判断题。在第一段提到了Callie Clemens在Facebook上看到了一条关于狗狗被困下水道的新闻，于是她开车前往事故现场。根据后文 Callie Clemens 一系列的行为，以及她说的“Somebody’s got to do it.”可知,她开车前往的目的是为了拯救小狗。
25. C 推理判断题。根据文章中第三、四段可知,虽然SPCA 跟 Callie Clemens一起实施了营救计划，但是他们没能成功，出于对小狗的同情心，Callie Clemens没有放弃，在短暂休息之后她选择返回下水道中再次营救小狗。
26. C 细节理解题。根据文章中最后一段“But the fact that Clemens had stopped hearing the dog’s howls made her confident that the puppy found its way out.”可知是因为狗叫声停止了,所以 Callie Clemens确信被困的小狗已经逃出。
27. A 推理判断题。根据文章中 Callie Clemens 不顾自己安危，进入下水道拯救小狗的行为可以看出她是一个善良的好心人，同时 Callie Clemens 不愿轻易放弃，两次发出了营救小狗的行动看出她是一个意志坚定的人。
C篇
28. D Breus提到穿着袜子睡觉可以帮助调节身体核心温度，从而改善睡眠质量。他还强调了穿着舒适、不限制血液循环、由透气面料制成的袜子的重要性，并且建议选择干净的袜子。因此，选项D (选择袜子是重要的)是正确的。选项 A (核心体温取决于袜子)不正确，因为 Breus并没有说袜子是调节核心体温的唯一因素，他只是说穿着袜子有助于调节体温。选项B (舒适的袜子是睡眠的万能药)也不正确，因为虽然 Breus提到了舒适的袜子有助于睡眠，但他还指出袜子并不是解决所有睡眠问题的万能药。选项C (更好的夜间休息改善血液循环)虽然是一个正面的健康观点，但并没有直接从 Breus的观点中推断出来。
29. B 词义猜测题。在第五段中，作者提到如果穿袜子睡觉会让你感到“a sensory overload”，这是一种不太愉快的体验，因为紧接着作者提供了一个替代方案：泡一个温暖的热水澡，这可以产生类似的效果。由此我们可以推断，“a sensory overload”指的是一种感官上的过度刺激，这种刺激可能让人感到不适。如果我们考虑选项A“完全放松”，这与“overload”这个词的含义相矛盾，因为“overload”通常指的是过多或过度的东西，不会导致放松。选项C“安全感”和选项D“解脱感”同样与“overload”的含义不符，因为它们都是积极的感受，而“overload”暗示的是一种消极的体验。选项B“A strong stimulation” (强烈的刺激)与“overload”这个词的负面含义相符,并且与泡热水澡这一替代方案的感官影响相一致。是最符合上下文的答案。
30. A 主旨大意题。本文的主要内容是穿袜子睡觉的功能和好处。其他选项虽然在文中有所提及，但并不是本文的主要内容。B选项讨论了睡眠中的身体温度，C选项提到了褪黑激素在睡眠中的作用，D选项提到了调节睡眠的方法，但这些都不是文本的焦点。
31. B 推理判断题。文章最后提到，除了穿袜子睡觉，还有其他方法可以提高睡眠质量，这暗示了接下来可能会讨论的内容。
D篇
32. A 细节理解题。在第一自然段提到了一项研究发现，从1948 年到2020年，平均智商每十年上升了2.2点，这就是“弗林效应”的定义。B项错误在于文章明确指出智商得分随时间增加，而不是一直稳定不变的。C项错误在于文章提到现代人比之前的祖先要聪明。D项错误是文章没有提到教育对身体健康的直接影响。
33. B推理判断题。这句话的意思是“然而，这并不能让人满意。”文章中第三段提到如战争、疾病和贫困，这些问题阻碍了认知潜力的完全实现，表明没有满足的余地。所以即使智商有所提高，仍然存在全球性问题。A项错误是在于文章没有提到“弗林效应”达到了顶峰。C项错误是文章没有讨论社会对人类智能的价值观。D项错误也是文章指出营养不良不仅仅是贫困的结果，还有其他因素。
34. C观点态度题。作者认为在工作场所，人类智能和人工智能可能会相互补充，这表明作者对人工智能与人类智能共同作用持有积极的看法。A项错误，因为文章没有提到人工智能无用。B项错误，文章没有直接说人工智能是独特性，而是其与人类智能的互补性。“有益的”更符合作者的总体观点。D项错误，文章没有提到人工智能无效。
35. C 主旨大意题。C项的翻译为全球智商趋势的洞见，这段文字讨论了“弗林效应”，智商提高的原因，以及尽管有所提高但仍存在的挑战。标题“全球智商趋势的洞见”概括了文章的总体内容，提供了对影响全球智商上升趋势因素的深入观察。A项错误，文章不仅仅是讨论智商发展的阶段。B项错误，虽然提到了提高智商的关键因素，但文章更侧重于全球趋势的分析。D项错误，虽然“弗林效应”是文章的一部分，但不是整篇文章的焦点。
七选五
36. D“现代生活中，批评如潮，我们往往难以优雅地给予和接受。”且根据下文讲述的是如何接受和给予批评的方式，故选择D项。
37. F从第二段最后一句“为了解决这个问题，采用一种能够将反馈与提供反馈的人分开的心态有助于在面对批评时保持客观性和适应力。”可知，F项“我们可能自然而然地分析批评者而非批评内容”为正确选项。38. A第三段讲述的是将批评视为宝贵的反馈机会，而非个人攻击，有助于改进学术表现。建议与信任的同行形成评论圈，交换真诚反馈，以增强适应能力。故选择A项。
39. G从本段小标题“将批评视为一种礼物，而非武器。”可得出“批评的关键是记住它的目的是帮助，而非伤害。”，故选择G项。
40. E 从本段第二句“ He”指代对象可知，正确选项为E。
