This summer, I tried a rather unconventional method to encourage my 12-year-old daughter to absorb herself
in the world of books—I offered her $100 to read one. Admittedly, it was born out of sheer desperation; never had I
imagined turning to bribery. However, the outcome was unexpectedly satisfactory, and as a parent of a formerly
resistant reader, I found this wasn’t so bad after all.
My daughter is undoubtedly intelligent, but prior to this experiment, she had never voluntarily completed a
chapter of a book for her own enjoyment. Indeed, she fulfilled her reading assignments for school, yet her leisure
time was revolving (围绕) around her phone — social media, videos, and games. Books, to her, felt like a thing of
the past. Recalling the joy of reading from my own childhood, I was eager to pass this love for books on to my
daughter. However, the more I pushed, the more she dug her heels in. The turning point came when I encountered a
jaw-dropping statistic: nearly 30% of 13-year-olds “never or hardly ever” read for pleasure, which struck a chord
with me.
That was when I offered $100 for her to engage with a book. She hesitated but agreed. To my astonishment,
she selected a title that wouldn’t have crossed my mind, and diligently began turning the pages. Chapter by chapter,
she got hooked. It wasn’t the book I would have chosen, but it didn’t matter. She was on a roll. What followed was
even more surprising. The bribe faded, but her newfound interest in reading persisted. Slowly, she turned into a
bookworm going through pages with endless passion. My desperate try wasn’t a perfect solution, but it left a spark
of habit and curiosity. The $100 no longer seemed like an expense; it transformed into a worthwhile investment.
Reflecting on this entire episode, I’ve gained an invaluable lesson. Sometimes, as a parent, you can’t always
expect the most straightforward or conventional approach to work. While I have mixed feelings about my method, I
am kind of proud of the outcome. And the $100 Sometimes worth every penny.
4 What does the underlined word “bribery” most likely mean in the first paragraph
A. Pressing to follow. B. Making up for the loss.
C. Paying to persuade. D. Giving up for the benefit.
5 What pushed the author to make a determined effort to change her daughter
A. Learning data on teen’s reading habits.
B Feeling stressed from school assignments.
C. Worrying over her daughter’s screen time.
D. Recalling her childhood reading experience.
6. What can we learn about the book the daughter picked
第 5页/共 13页
A. It was centred on diligence.
B. It was not meant for students.
C. It was suggested by the author.
D. It was fascinating to the daughter.
7. What does the author think of her method
A. Conflicting but effective. B. Straightforward but practical.
C. Fruitless but worthwhile. D. Unconventional but scientific.
C
As a writer specializing in psychology and human cognition (认知) ,I’ve explored countless tricks to boost
brainpower. Yet, few have proven as surprisingly effective as the ancient practice of illeism. Politicians often use
this device to sound more objective, as Julius Caesar did in his account of the Gallic War, writing “Caesar avenged
(为……报仇) the public” instead of “I avenged the public.” Simply put, illeism is the act of referring to oneself in
the third person instead of the first person.
Talking about yourself this way might sound overly formal or unusual to modern ears, but science says it
works wonders. When tough decisions come knocking, speaking in the third person can help you stay calm, cutting
through those messy emotions that often cloud our judgment. It’s like giving your brain a little space to see the big
picture.
Research by Igor Grossmann at the University of Waterloo shows that we’re naturally better at being “wise”
when dealing with other people’s problems than our own. This is known as Solomon’s Paradox (悖论), which
explains why giving your best friend advice is a breeze (微风), but solving your own is a drama.
Can illeism help solve this paradox Grossmann’s research suggests it can. By shifting to the third person, we
step back from our negative emotions and gain another perspective. Studies show that people who tried this
displayed more modesty — basically, they made clearer decisions and leveled up their wisdom game. One study
even found that participants who journaled in the third person for a month started seeing everyday situations in a
whole new light. They also reported feeling less stressed and more positive.
I’ve tried it myself, and honestly, it works! Whether it’s challenging work decisions, family dilemmas, or
handling friendships, this little mental shift has helped me see things more clearly and act more thoughtfully. Sure,
it might sound a little odd at first, but it’s incredibly effective. If you’ re looking for a fun, easy way to clear your
head, why not give it a shot Who knows— you might just discover your inner Caesar.
8. Why is Julius Caesar’s example cited in the first paragraph
第 6页/共 13页
A. To reveal the source of illeism.
B. To prove the effectiveness of illeism.
C. To show the intelligence of politicians.
D. To explain the development of a language.
9. Which of the following sayings best reflects Solomon’s Paradox
A. Out of sight, out of mind.
B. Actions speak louder than words.
C. A problem shared is a problem halved.
D. You can’t read the label from inside the jar.
10. How does illeism aid decision-making
A. People can accept others’ advice with modesty.
B. People can adjust personal habits to handle issues.
C. People can perfect their judgment by increasing wisdom.
D. People can gain a fresh perspective with positive emotions.
11. Where is this text probably taken from
A A psychology blog. B. A historical biography.
C. A self-help guide. D. A scientific journal.
D
According to a study published in Nature, even after cutting significant weight, your fat cells might be
hanging on to the “obesity (肥胖) memory”, which could explain why keeping the weight off can feel like an uphill
battle.
The issue lies in changes to the epigenome — a set of chemical tags on DNA and proteins that control gene
activity. For fat cells, these changes can not only disturb normal functions like energy storage and hormone (荷尔
蒙) regulation, but also send wrong signals to the parts of brain that regulate hunger and metabolism (新陈代谢).
Researchers recently uncovered the stubborn tendency in humans. When analyzing fat tissue (组织) from
weight-loss individuals and a control group with no history of obesity, they found a surprising pattern: Certain
genes were much more active in the weight-loss group. As one participant joked, “It’s like my fat cells are
whispering, ‘Hey, let’s stock up for winter!’” Another admitted, “I can’t stop thinking about food — I desire
high-calorie snacks all the time!” These individuals not only experience heightened hunger and an intense appetite,
第 7页/共 13页
but also face ametabolic reality where their bodies are more likely to store food as fat rather than burn it. As one
frustrated dieter humorously remarked, “It feels like my body treats every meal like a once-in-a-lifetime feast!”
While these findings shed light on the “memory” of obesity, scientists caution that the study does not prove
that epigenetic changes directly cause weight regain. Hyun Cheol Roh, a metabolism expert, stressed that “more
research is needed to pin down the exact role of these changes.”
For those already on a weight-loss journey, staying slim isn’t an impossible dream — it’s achievable, though
it does take effort. Laura Hinte, a biologist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, wants you to know: “Your
fat cells might have a great memory, but you can outsmart them. Long-term success comes from building habits
that stick — especially in diet and exercise.” Even so, the most effective way to beat obesity is to stop it before it
starts —addressing it before it becomes a challenge.
12. What does the “obesity memory” mean
A. People’s weight is controlled by brain.
B. People can’t forget the overweight state.
C. People can never change the old habits related to obesity.
D. People have a tendency to go back to their previous weight.
13. What has researchers found in the weight-loss group
A. Their genes become much less active.
B. They tend to cherish food and try not to waste it.
C. They have increased appetite and slower metabolism.
D. Their weight is more likely to bounce back in winter.
14. What does the last paragraph emphasize about beating obesity
A. Instant recovery. B. Early prevention.
C. Challenging goals. D. Effortless maintenance.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Body shape is determined by genes
B. The hidden secret of epigenetic changes
C. Memory of fat cells: The reason for easy weight regain
D. Fat cells never change: Why losing weight is impossible

Good posture (体态) is often misunderstood as forcing your spine (脊柱) to stand at attention like a soldier.
____16____ It has got some pretty cool curves — a backward curve in your lower back, a forward curve in your
upper back, and another backward curve in your neck. Maintaining these natural curves is essential for avoiding
unnecessary stress on the muscles.
Since posture is not about staying still like a statue, the best posture guidelines encourage movement whenever
possible to help maintain comfort throughout the day. Get up, stretch, or move around every thirty to sixty minutes.
____17____
In a sitting position, good posture means planting your feet flat on the floor, keeping your knees slightly more
than a 90-degree angle, and making sure those natural spine curves stay natural. ____18____ Additionally, your
shoulders should be back, and your head should be aligned (对齐) with your spine. Bonus tip: using a supportive
chair or standing desk can make this whole posture game a lot easier — especially if you’re sitting or standing for
hours.
____19____ It offers several physical benefits, including reducing the risk of injury, relieving muscle tension,
improving balance, and increasing energy. It helps keep your bones and muscles in the right position, preventing
problems like compressed nerves, injuries from repetitive movements, and pain in the back, neck, and limbs.
____20____ Studies show that sitting upright can lift your spirits, cut down stress, and even help you focus better.
A. It is a mood booster too.
B. However, this is not the truth.
C. Proper posture results in long-term well-being.

Summer vacation starting, Steve and I planned to play baseball every day, aiming to join the freshman team.
“If you make it into the team, I’ll buy you a new baseball glove as a present.” My mom’s promise echoed in my
mind as I excitedly waited for Steve, staring at my worn-out glove.
But today I had to clean Mrs. Thompson’s garage first. She was weakened by old age, so my mom always
volunteered me to help her. Mom wouldn’t let me accept any money, thinking she didn’t have much, and literally, I
never minded — after all, Mrs. Thompson had knitted me five sweaters and always made me cakes. Most
importantly, it was the right thing to do.
Steve came rushing out of his house, and I explained the situation. As expected, he immediately said, “Alright,
I’ll help.”
We instantly got to work. The garage was a mess of boxes, but we gathered all our energy and soon brought
the cleanup to an end. When arranging the last box, however, I nudged the shelf accidentally. Before I could react,
a vase fell and crashed to the ground, broken into pieces.
I froze, my heart pounding. The vase was beautiful with delicate designs, which must have cost a fortune.
Glancing at the open garage door, I suggested, “Maybe I can just sweep this up. Mrs. Thompson won’t even notice.”
I responded fast and piled the pieces into the trash bin. But Steve’s expression darkened. “That’s not how it works.
You should tell her what happened.”
I tried to justify myself, telling all the chores I’d done for Mrs. Thompson without pay. I even argued that it
wasn’t my responsibility to pay for something I didn’t destroy on purpose. However, Steve wasn’t buying it, his
voice firm. “You’re better than that. Be responsible.”
We stood there in silence, the weight of the moment hanging between us. Just then, Mrs. Thompson walked in,
第 12页/共 13页
giving us a scare. She smiled warmly, unaware of the whole thing. “Boys, I baked a chocolate cake. Now come in
for a piece. I really appreciate all your help.”

46. Dear Karry,
I am glad to hear that you won the Gloria Barron National Prize for Young Heroes. Please accept my heartfelt
congratulations on this incredible honor!
Your dedication to cleaning up the coast is truly inspiring. Not only have you removed harmful plastic waste
that endangers wildlife, but you have also raised awareness within your community about the importance of
environmental conservation. Your efforts have proven that even small actions taken by teenagers can spark
meaningful difference. Greatly encouraged by your example, I now feel a stronger sense of responsibility to reduce
my daily waste and actively participate in local environmental initiatives.
Keep up the amazing work! I wish you continued success in all your future projects.
Love,
Li Hua
47. Hesitantly, we entered the room and I noticed a gift box on the table beside the cake. “Could it be for me ” I
wondered. Mrs. Thompson read my thoughts, “Your mom mentioned you’ re training for the baseball team, so I
prepared this for you. Open it!” I unwrapped the box and a brand-new baseball glove was in sight! Immense guilt
grew when I recalled all she did for me. Steve’s words also struck me, urging me to admit the mistake. I said in a
low voice, “Mrs. Thompson, I’m sorry for breaking your vase in the garage by accident. I should pay for it.”
Having said that, I waited nervously for Mrs. Thompson to speak up. However, instead of disappointment, she
just laughed. “Oh, that old vase was just a cheap thing I picked up at a dollar store. It is far less precious than your
help and honesty. Don’t worry about it. Let’s enjoy the cake!” A bit relieved, I exchanged a look with Steve, eager
to break in my new glove on the field and expecting another visit to Mrs. Thompson’s house. In his eyes, this time,
shone a bright glimmer approving of my recovered sense of responsibility.
