12．（10分） It was my birthday，and I was celebrating it as I had for years：watching the annual Perseid meteor shower（流星雨）.But this time，as the meteors flashed across the sky，I，a junior girl，began to question， "Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby？"
I grew up in a small town，where even graduating from high school was not a given for many students.But I was driven to pursue my education，and like my best friend's dad —a pharmacist（药剂师），one of the few professional role models in my neighborhood，I chose to major in pharmacy，the science of preparing medicines，at the University of North Carolina.
The university was only a 3.5﹣hour drive away，but it felt across the universe.In the weeks since I began my pharmacy degree，I had met people with jobs and PhDs in different branches of science I had never considered.Their passion and knowledge opened my eyes to worlds I had never imagined.As my birthday and the Perseid meteor shower approached，I was faced with a decision：Should I stick to my long﹣standing plans or take a step into the unknown？
Ultimately，a solar eclipse（日食） helped me make my decision.As the Moon gradually shaded the Sun，the world darkened around me.The stillness of the water，the desperate calls of birds，and the fading sunset deeply moved me.I knew what I had to do.I dropped out of pharmacy school to pursue previously unimagined options.
Despite years of challenges and growth，I started a PhD in astronomy.I realized that growing up with the night sky gave me an insight into life：In the enormous size of the universe，our individual needs，desires，fears，and insecurities pale into insignificance，bringing humanity together.It released me from allowing earthly worries，shame，or self﹣doubt to stand in the way of pursuing new dreams.
（1）What motivated the author to major in pharmacy？　 　
A.Her ambition to become a doctor.
B.The encouragement of her friend.
C.Her childhood passion for pharmacy.
D.The influence of her best friend's father.
（2）How did the author's experience at university shape her？　 　
A.It helped her stick to her belief.
B.It broadened her horizon to new ideas.
C.It enhanced her pharmacy study.
D.It developed her thinking abilities.
（3）What can we learn from the author's understanding of life？　 　
A.Accepting insecurities helps us handle challenges.
B.Personal problems still matter in the vast universe.
C.It's vital to pursue dreams despite personal challenges.
D.It is small and unimportant things that mean a lot to us.
（4）Which of the following best describes the author？　 　
A.Caring and patient.
B.Humble and honest.
C.Generous and helpful.
D.Curious and determined.
13．（10分） Throughout history，the role of technology and people's reactions to it have been remarkably consistent，and those who worry about new technology and its impact on society should study the history of paper.
Technological inventions have always arisen from necessity.Numerous inventions came before paper.First came spoken language，then drawing，then pictographs，then alphabets，then phoneticism，then writing，and then paper.As needs present themselves，solutions are found.Every idea generates a need for another.Speech was the wheel that eventually led to the cart（马车） that was paper.
Studying the history of paper exposes a number of historical misconceptions，the most important of which is this technological fallacy：the idea that technology changes society.It is exactly the opposite.Society develops technology to address the changes that are taking place within it.When Meng Tian invented the camel﹣hair paint brush in 250 BCE China，his invention did not suddenly inspire the Chinese people to start writing and painting，or to develop calligraphy.Rather，Chinese society had already established a system of writing but had a growing urge for more written documents and more complicated calligraphy.Their previous tool could not meet the rising demand.Meng Tian found a device that made both writing and calligraphy faster and of a far higher quality.
Historians of the role of paper in history often exaggerate （夸大） paper's influence：Claims that architecture，the Renaissance，or Industrial Revolution required paper are false.These developments came about because society had come to a point where they were needed.This is true of all technology，but in the case of paper，it is particularly clear.
The growth of intellectual pursuits，along with the spread of ideas and the expansion of commerce，is what led to papermaking.But its international growth was a remarkably slow process.The use of printing presses，steam engines，automobiles，and computers spread internationally over far shorter periods of time than did paper.
（1）Why does the author mention other inventions besides paper in paragraph 2？　 　
A.To explain a rule.
B.To make a prediction.
C.To draw a comparison.
D.To prove an argument.
（2）What does the underlined word "fallacy" in paragraph 3 mean？　 　
A.Misbelief.
B.Assumption.
C.Fault.
D.Theory.
（3）What could be inferred from paragraph 4？　 　
A.Social demand is the power of technology.
B.Paper advances the spread of human civilization.
C.Innovation is a booster of economic development.
D.Paper has played a decisive role throughout history.
（4）Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from？　 　
A.A Short History of Calligraphist
B.Paper：Paging Through History
C.Papermaking：An Ancient Technique
D.How Technology Changed Our World
14．（10分） A digital twin is a digital representation of either a physical object，person，or process.This virtual copy can be used to simulate （模拟） behaviour to better understand exposure to different situations and conditions.The object being studied can be fitted with various sensors，each relating to different areas of functionality.The twin can be linked to the data received about different aspects of performance，such as temperature and energy output，and updated in real time as changes are made，helping people and organisations make better decisions.
Digital twins are advantageous because they allow for product designs to be tested continually，as adjustments and redesigns are made，rather than having to test every physical object.A champion sailing team used them to test thousands of boat designs digitally，allowing the team to test thousands of boat designs without needing to physically build them.Equally，the Mercedes Benz Croup AG has developed customer twins that allow customers to "test drive" a vehicle without getting behind the wheel.
Such technology is now being explored in healthcare.Digital twinning would allow tailored models to be created for patients and be adjusted based on a person's health data，genetics，and lifestyle.By comparing individual data to population averages，doctors might use these models to spot health problems early，predict diseases，and propose the safest treatment as a way to either maintain or restore patients' state.But collecting large amounts of personal data could pose risks of privacy leak.
Another problem surrounds the idea of healthy people seeking medical help to prevent an issue which they have not yet encountered.This is of course helpful to health.However，from a financial point of view，it challenges healthcare systems to revise what should be covered.This revision will depend on whether preventive measures are seen as daily care，treatment，or enhancement，making it difficult to know where the line should be drawn.
Despite what digital twinning presents，its benefits in various fields like manufacturing，transportation，and healthcare are undeniable.With strict management of data and thoughtful policy adjustments，this technology could bridge virtual insights with human needs，ultimately opening up a new both physical and digital world.
（1）What is a digital twin capable of？　 　
A.Offering the best choice.
B.Varying with changing data.
C.Responding to coming emergencies.
D Tackling the sensors misfunctions.
（2）In what aspect does a digital twin stand out？　 　
A.It boosts product sales.
B It inspires creative designs.
C.It saves time and resources.
D.It guarantees product quality.
（3）What acts as a barrier to the revision for healthcare systems？　 　
A.The classification of health conditions.
B.The risk of abasing medicine.
C.The cost of designing models.
D.The overusing of personal data.
（4）What is the best title for the text？　 　
A.Changing lives：Digital healthcare rise
B.Seeing double：A dive into digital twins
C.Shouldering challenges：Digital twins care
D.Thinking twice：A trial in digital healthcare
第二节 （共1小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
15．（12.5分） The Hedgehog's Dilemma is a concept that explores the tension between the desire for close relationships and the risk of emotional harm.German philosopher Schopenhauer used the metaphor（比喻） of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day：they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other's quills （刺）.They separate，only to feel the cold again，eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain. （1）　 　
So that's the theory，but what does this look like in our everyday lives？ （2）　 　 But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future？Schopenhauer's advice would probably be "yes". （3）　 　 For example，a previous study found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased likelihood of survival.Additionally，the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long﹣term isolation（隔离） are equal to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
（4）　 　 Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains that behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood.While these defenses may provide short﹣term protection，they can block meaningful connections if they persist.
In conclusion，the natural longing for connection drives us to seek out meaningful relationships，even when we know that weakness can lead to emotional pain.Unlike hedgehogs，humans don't have the quills. （5）　 　 So when we learn to lower our defenses for safe people，there's a chance we actually can have it all —the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt.
A.However，modern research offers a different perspective.
B.This metaphor shows the importance of adaptability in nature.
C.Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences.
D.These experiences can make it difficult to trust others in the future.
E.Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships.
F.This reflects humans' struggle to balance closeness and self﹣protection.
G.We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect ourselves.

Now one foot，now the other
Bobby was named after his grandfather，Bob.Bob was the one who helped Bobby learn to walk. "Hold on to my hands，Bobby，" his grandfather said. "Now one foot，now the other."
One of the best things Bob and Bobby did was to play with the old wooden blocks that were kept on a shelf，in the small sewing room under the front stairs.The blocks had pictures of animals on them.Bob and Bobby would put the blocks one on top of the other very slowly，building a tall tower.Sometimes the tower would be almost finished. "Just one more block，" Bob would say. "And that's the elephant block." And they would carefully put the elephant block on the very top.But Bob would sneeze and the tower would fall down.Bobby would laugh and laugh.Then Bob would sit Bobby on his knee and tell him stories. "Bob，tell me the story about how you taught me to walk，" Bobby would say.And the same heartwarming story began to unfold again.
Then one day Bobby came home from school and his grandfather wasn't there. "Bob is in the hospital，" Dad told Bobby， "He's had a stroke（中风） and he is too sick to see anyone."
Months later，his father told him that Bob was coming home. "Now，Bobby，" Dad said， "Bob is still very sick.He can't move or talk.And he can't remember us." Bobby just nodded and didn't say anything.
One day，Bob tried to say something to Bobby，but the sound that came out was awful.Bobby ran out of the room. "Bob sounded like a monster!" Bobby cried. "He can't help it，Bobby，" Mom said.
Then，Bobby felt sorry and went back to the room where Bob was sitting. "I didn't mean to run away，Bob.I'm sorry，" Bobby said. "Do you know who I am？" Suddenly Bobby saw Bob blink（眨眼睛） his eyes. "Mom，" Bobby called. "Bob knows who I am." "Oh Bobby，" Mom said. "Your grandfather doesn't recognize any of us."

M：Hello.My name is Sokolov.I have been trying to speak to the hotel owner for a couple of days now with no success.I have to say，this is truly disappointing for a five﹣star hotel，especially with the amount of money we spent during our stay with you.My family and I stayed at the Hotel Chandelier from May 25th to 27th and the whole experience was just absolutely awful.None of your waiters could speak Russian，even though I have an email from you assuring us that there would be a minimum of two Russian speaking staff on every shift.You had noisy kids' activities and competitions by the pool non﹣stop.It made it really difficult to relax.When expressing our concerns to the manager，Mr.Lewis，not only was he unable to provide us with a space where we could relax and read our books，but he also told us that smoking was not allowed in the hotel，although again，we checked this before our stay and you told us that smoking outdoors was permitted.Please get back to me as soon as possible or I will take these matters to my legal team.

12．（10分） It was my birthday，and I was celebrating it as I had for years：watching the annual Perseid meteor shower（流星雨）.But this time，as the meteors flashed across the sky，I，a junior girl，began to question， "Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby？"
I grew up in a small town，where even graduating from high school was not a given for many students.But I was driven to pursue my education，and like my best friend's dad —a pharmacist（药剂师），one of the few professional role models in my neighborhood，I chose to major in pharmacy，the science of preparing medicines，at the University of North Carolina.
The university was only a 3.5﹣hour drive away，but it felt across the universe.In the weeks since I began my pharmacy degree，I had met people with jobs and PhDs in different branches of science I had never considered.Their passion and knowledge opened my eyes to worlds I had never imagined.As my birthday and the Perseid meteor shower approached，I was faced with a decision：Should I stick to my long﹣standing plans or take a step into the unknown？
Ultimately，a solar eclipse（日食） helped me make my decision.As the Moon gradually shaded the Sun，the world darkened around me.The stillness of the water，the desperate calls of birds，and the fading sunset deeply moved me.I knew what I had to do.I dropped out of pharmacy school to pursue previously unimagined options.
Despite years of challenges and growth，I started a PhD in astronomy.I realized that growing up with the night sky gave me an insight into life：In the enormous size of the universe，our individual needs，desires，fears，and insecurities pale into insignificance，bringing humanity together.It released me from allowing earthly worries，shame，or self﹣doubt to stand in the way of pursuing new dreams.
（1）What motivated the author to major in pharmacy？　D

D.It developed her thinking abilities.
（3）What can we learn from the author's understanding of life？　C　
A.Accepting insecurities helps us handle challenges.
B.Personal problems still matter in the vast universe.
C.It's vital to pursue dreams despite personal challenges.
D.It is small and unimportant things that mean a lot to us.
（4）Which of the following best describes the author？　D

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述作者生日看流星雨时，对自己一直以来热爱的天文学产生思考。受朋友父亲影响，作者大学选择药学专业，但在大学接触到不同领域的人后，眼界开阔。一次日食让作者决定放弃药学，转而学习物理和天文学，作者认为夜空让自己学会克服困难追求梦想。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段But I was driven to pursue my education，and like my best friend's dad — a pharmacist （药剂师），one of the few professional role models in my neighborhood，I chose to major in pharmacy，the science of preparing medicines，at the University of North Carolina. （但我决心追求学业，就像我最好朋友的父亲——一位药剂师（我所在社区为数不多的职业榜样之一）那样，我选择在北卡罗来纳大学主修药学——这门研究药物制备的科学。）可知，作者选择药学专业的动机是受好友父亲的影响。故选D。
（2）细节理解题。根据第三段中In the weeks since I began my pharmacy degree，I had met people with jobs and PhDs in different branches of science I had never considered.Their passion and knowledge opened my eyes to worlds I had never imagined. （在开始攻读药学学位的几周里，我遇到了从事不同科学分支工作并拥有博士学位的人，这些分支是我从未考虑过的。他们的热情和知识让我看到了从未想象过的世界。）可知，大学经历拓宽了作者的视野，让她接触到新的想法。故选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段It released me from allowing earthly worries，shame，or self﹣doubt to stand in the way of pursuing new dreams. （它让我不再让世俗的担忧、羞耻或自我怀疑阻碍我追求新的梦想。）可知，作者认为尽管面临个人挑战，追求梦想至关重要。故选C。
（4）推理判断题。根据第一段It was my birthday，and I was celebrating it as I had for years：watching the annual Perseid meteor shower （流星雨）.But this time，as the meteors flashed across the sky，I，a junior girl，began to question， "Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby？"（那天是我的生日，我像往年一样庆祝——观看一年一度的英仙座流星雨。但当流星划过夜空时，身为高二女生的我突然开始思索："我对天文学的毕生热爱，能否超越爱好的范畴？"）可知，作者对"终身热爱天文学能否超越爱好"的质疑，以及最终放弃药学转向天文学的决定，体现其"好奇心"；根据尾段Despite years of challenges and growth，I started a PhD in astronomy. （尽管经历了多年的挑战和成长，我开始攻读天文学博士学位。）可知，作者是坚定的，综合以上信息可知，作者对天文学有疑问并不断探索，还能坚持追求自己的梦想，说明她既好奇又坚定。故选D。

13．（10分） Throughout history，the role of technology and people's reactions to it have been remarkably consistent，and those who worry about new technology and its impact on society should study the history of paper.
Technological inventions have always arisen from necessity.Numerous inventions came before paper.First came spoken language，then drawing，then pictographs，then alphabets，then phoneticism，then writing，and then paper.As needs present themselves，solutions are found.Every idea generates a need for another.Speech was the wheel that eventually led to the cart（马车） that was paper.
Studying the history of paper exposes a number of historical misconceptions，the most important of which is this technological fallacy：the idea that technology changes society.It is exactly the opposite.Society develops technology to address the changes that are taking place within it.When Meng Tian invented the camel﹣hair paint brush in 250 BCE China，his invention did not suddenly inspire the Chinese people to start writing and painting，or to develop calligraphy.Rather，Chinese society had already established a system of writing but had a growing urge for more written documents and more complicated calligraphy.Their previous tool could not meet the rising demand.Meng Tian found a device that made both writing and calligraphy faster and of a far higher quality.
Historians of the role of paper in history often exaggerate （夸大） paper's influence：Claims that architecture，the Renaissance，or Industrial Revolution required paper are false.These developments came about because society had come to a point where they were needed.This is true of all technology，but in the case of paper，it is particularly clear.
The growth of intellectual pursuits，along with the spread of ideas and the expansion of commerce，is what led to papermaking.But its international growth was a remarkably slow process.The use of printing presses，steam engines，automobiles，and computers spread internationally over far shorter periods of time than did paper.
（1）Why does the author mention other inventions besides paper in paragraph 2？　D　
A.To explain a rule.
B.To make a prediction.
C.To draw a comparison.
D.To prove an argument.
（2）What does the underlined word "fallacy" in paragraph 3 mean？　A　
A.Misbelief.
B.Assumption.
C.Fault.
D.Theory.
（3）What could be inferred from paragraph 4？　A　
A.Social demand is the power of technology.
B.Paper advances the spread of human civilization.
C.Innovation is a booster of economic development.
D.Paper has played a decisive role throughout history.
（4）Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from？　B　
A.A Short History of Calligraphist
B.Paper：Paging Through History
C.Papermaking：An Ancient Technique
D.How Technology Changed Our World

【答案】DAAB
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了纸张历史，揭示技术与社会关系的真相。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段Throughout history，the role of technology and people's reactions to it have been remarkably consistent，and those who worry about new technology and its impact on society should study the history of paper. （纵观历史，技术所扮演的角色以及人们对技术的反应始终如一，那些担忧新技术及其对社会影响的人应该研究一下纸张的历史。）、第二段Technological inventions have always arisen from necessity.Numerous inventions came before paper.First came spoken language，then drawing，then pictographs，then alphabets，then phoneticism，then writing，and then paper.As needs present themselves，solutions are found.Every idea generates a need for another.Speech was the wheel that eventually led to the cart （马车） that was paper. （技术发明往往源于实际需求。在纸张出现之前，已有众多发明问世。首先是口头语言，随后是绘画，接着是象形文字，然后是字母表，再到表音文字，之后是书写，最后才有了纸张。随着需求的出现，解决方案也会随之产生。每一个创意都会催生对另一个创意的需求。口头语言就像是推动最终催生出纸张这一"马车"的"轮子"。）可知，文章整体围绕"技术与社会的关系"展开论述，核心观点是社会发展推动技术进步，而非技术改变社会。作者提到纸张以外的其他发明是为了证明技术发明源于需求，进而支持文章关于技术与社会关系的核心论点。故选D。
（2）词句猜测题。根据第三段Studying the history of paper exposes a number of historical misconceptions，the most important of which is this technological fallacy：the idea that technology changes society.It is exactly the opposite.Society develops technology to address the changes that are taking place within it. （研究纸张的历史揭示了许多历史上的误解，其中最重要的一个技术fallacy是：认为技术改变了社会。而事实恰恰相反，是社会为了应对内部发生的变化而发展了技术。）可知，研究纸张的历史揭示了许多历史误解，其中最重要的是这个技术谬误，即技术改变社会的观念，故fallacy意思是"谬误，错误观念"。A.Misbelief错误观念；B.Assumption假定；C.Fault过错；D.Theory理论。故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据第四段Historians of the role of paper in history often exaggerate （夸大） paper's influence：Claims that architecture，the Renaissance，or Industrial Revolution required paper are false.These developments came about because society had come to a point where they were needed.This is true of all technology，but in the case of paper，it is particularly clear. （研究纸张在历史上作用的历史学家常常夸大纸张的影响力：声称建筑、文艺复兴或工业革命需要纸张的说法是错误的。这些发展是因为社会已经到了需要它们的程度。所有技术都是如此，但在纸张的情况下，这一点尤为明显。）可知，从第四段可以推断出社会需求是技术的动力。故选A。
（4）推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段Throughout history，the role of technology and people's reactions to it have been remarkably consistent，and those who worry about new technology and its impact on society should study the history of paper. （纵观历史，技术所扮演的角色以及人们对技术的反应始终如一，那些担忧新技术及其对社会影响的人应该研究一下纸张的历史。）可知，文章主要讲述了纸张的历史，以及研究纸张历史对理解技术与社会关系的重要性。可推知，文章最可能选自《纸张：翻阅历史》这本书。故选B。

14．（10分） A digital twin is a digital representation of either a physical object，person，or process.This virtual copy can be used to simulate （模拟） behaviour to better understand exposure to different situations and conditions.The object being studied can be fitted with various sensors，each relating to different areas of functionality.The twin can be linked to the data received about different aspects of performance，such as temperature and energy output，and updated in real time as changes are made，helping people and organisations make better decisions.
Digital twins are advantageous because they allow for product designs to be tested continually，as adjustments and redesigns are made，rather than having to test every physical object.A champion sailing team used them to test thousands of boat designs digitally，allowing the team to test thousands of boat designs without needing to physically build them.Equally，the Mercedes Benz Croup AG has developed customer twins that allow customers to "test drive" a vehicle without getting behind the wheel.
Such technology is now being explored in healthcare.Digital twinning would allow tailored models to be created for patients and be adjusted based on a person's health data，genetics，and lifestyle.By comparing individual data to population averages，doctors might use these models to spot health problems early，predict diseases，and propose the safest treatment as a way to either maintain or restore patients' state.But collecting large amounts of personal data could pose risks of privacy leak.
Another problem surrounds the idea of healthy people seeking medical help to prevent an issue which they have not yet encountered.This is of course helpful to health.However，from a financial point of view，it challenges healthcare systems to revise what should be covered.This revision will depend on whether preventive measures are seen as daily care，treatment，or enhancement，making it difficult to know where the line should be drawn.
Despite what digital twinning presents，its benefits in various fields like manufacturing，transportation，and healthcare are undeniable.With strict management of data and thoughtful policy adjustments，this technology could bridge virtual insights with human needs，ultimately opening up a new both physical and digital world.
（1）What is a digital twin capable of？　B　
A.Offering the best choice.
B.Varying with changing data.
C.Responding to coming emergencies.
D Tackling the sensors misfunctions.
（2）In what aspect does a digital twin stand out？　C　
A.It boosts product sales.
B It inspires creative designs.
C.It saves time and resources.
D.It guarantees product quality.
（3）What acts as a barrier to the revision for healthcare systems？　A　
A.The classification of health conditions.
B.The risk of abasing medicine.
C.The cost of designing models.
D.The overusing of personal data.
（4）What is the best title for the text？　B　
A.Changing lives：Digital healthcare rise
B.Seeing double：A dive into digital twins
C.Shouldering challenges：Digital twins care
D.Thinking twice：A trial in digital healthcare

【答案】BCAB
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了数字孪生的概念，即对物理对象、人或过程的数字表示，可用于模拟行为。阐述了数字孪生在产品设计测试、医疗保健等领域的优势，同时也指出其在医疗保健领域面临的隐私泄露和医疗系统修订困难等问题。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段The twin can be linked to the data received about different aspects of performance，such as temperature and energy output，and updated in real time as changes are made，helping people and organisations make better decisions. （数字孪生可以与接收到的关于不同性能方面的数据 （如温度和能量输出） 相关联，并在做出更改时实时更新，帮助人们和组织做出更好的决策。）可知，数字孪生能够随着数据的变化而变化。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段中Digital twins are advantageous because they allow for product designs to be tested continually，as adjustments and redesigns are made，rather than having to test every physical object.（数字孪生的优势在于，它允许在不断调整和重新设计的过程中对产品设计进行持续测试，而不必对每个实物进行测试。）可知，数字孪生技术无需对每个实物进行测试，从而节省了时间和资源，这是其突出的优势。故选C。
（3）细节理解题。根据第四段However，from a financial point of view，it challenges healthcare systems to revise what should be covered.This revision will depend on whether preventive measures are seen as daily care，treatment，or enhancement，making it difficult to know where the line should be drawn.（然而，从财务角度来看，它对医疗保健系统提出了挑战，要求其修改应涵盖的内容。这种修改将取决于预防措施是被视为日常护理、治疗还是增强，因此很难确定界限在哪里。）可知，医疗保健系统修改的障碍在于健康状态的分类，即难以确定哪些预防措施应被视为日常护理、治疗还是增强，从而难以确定界限。故选A。
（4）标题归纳题。根据第一段A digital twin is a digital representation of either a physical object，person，or process. （数字孪生是物理对象、人或过程的数字表示。）以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了数字孪生技术的概念、优势、在医疗保健领域的应用以及面临的挑战，并强调了其潜在的好处。因此，B项"Seeing double：A dive into digital twins （看见双重影像：深入探索数字孪生）"作为标题最符合文章主旨，既体现了数字孪生的核心概念，又暗示了文章将深入探讨这一主题。故选B。

15．（12.5分） The Hedgehog's Dilemma is a concept that explores the tension between the desire for close relationships and the risk of emotional harm.German philosopher Schopenhauer used the metaphor（比喻） of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day：they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other's quills （刺）.They separate，only to feel the cold again，eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain. （1）　F　
So that's the theory，but what does this look like in our everyday lives？ （2）　E　 But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future？Schopenhauer's advice would probably be "yes". （3）　A　 For example，a previous study found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased likelihood of survival.Additionally，the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long﹣term isolation（隔离） are equal to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
（4）　C　 Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains that behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood.While these defenses may provide short﹣term protection，they can block meaningful connections if they persist.
In conclusion，the natural longing for connection drives us to seek out meaningful relationships，even when we know that weakness can lead to emotional pain.Unlike hedgehogs，humans don't have the quills. （5）　G　 So when we learn to lower our defenses for safe people，there's a chance we actually can have it all —the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt.
A.However，modern research offers a different perspective.
B.This metaphor shows the importance of adaptability in nature.
C.Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences.
D.These experiences can make it difficult to trust others in the future.
E.Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships.
F.This reflects humans' struggle to balance closeness and self﹣protection.
G.We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect ourselves.

【答案】FEACG
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍刺猬困境的概念，及其在生活中的体现和相关研究观点。
【解答】（1）联系上文题。根据上文German philosopher Schopenhauer used the metaphor of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day：they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other's quills.They separate，only to feel the cold again，eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain.（德国哲学家叔本华用刺猬在寒冷冬日取暖的比喻：它们挤在一起取暖，但很快就会感受到彼此刺的疼痛。它们分开，却又再次感到寒冷，最终找到一个合适的距离，既能取暖又不会疼痛。）描述了刺猬困境的具体情况，F选项This reflects humans struggle to balance closeness and self﹣protection.（这反映了人类在平衡亲密关系和自我保护之间的挣扎。）中的This指代上文刺猬的例子，且准确地总结出该例子所反映的人类在亲密关系和自我保护间的挣扎，承接上文。故选F。
（2）语境衔接题。根据上文So that's the theory，but what does this look like in our everyday lives？（这就是这个理论，但在我们的日常生活中这是什么样的呢？）引出在生活中刺猬困境的体现这一话题，下文But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future？（但是我们应该让这些经历阻碍我们在未来放下戒备吗？ ）中的these experiences提示上文应提及一些经历，E选项Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships.（许多人都有过来自亲密关系的情感痛苦的经历。）既回答了上文关于生活中刺猬困境的问题，又引出下文对这些经历影响的讨论。故选E。
（3）语境衔接题。根据上文But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future？Schopenhauer's advice would probably be "yes".（但我们应该让这些经历阻止我们在未来放松警惕吗？叔本华的建议可能是"是的"）表明叔本华的观点，下文For example，a previous study found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased likelihood of survival.Additionally，the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long﹣term isolation are equal to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.（例如，一项分析了148项涉及308，849名参与者的研究的综述发现，拥有强大社交关系的个体生存的可能性增加了50%。此外，国家老龄化研究所报告称，长期隔离的健康风险相当于每天抽15支烟。）通过研究表明亲密关系的好处，与叔本华的观点相反，A选项However，modern research offers a different perspective.（然而，现代研究提供了不同的观点。）起到转折作用，引出下文与叔本华观点不同的现代研究内容。故选A。
（4）联系下文题。根据下文Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains that behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood.While these defenses may provide short﹣term protection，they can block meaningful connections if they persist.（心理治疗师希拉里 桑德斯解释说，像孤立或愤怒这样的行为在童年时期可以作为生存策略。虽然这些防御机制可能提供短期保护，但如果持续下去，它们可能会阻碍有意义的联系。）说明一些防御行为的起源和影响，C选项Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences.（大多数防御反应源于早期经历。）中的defensive reactions与下文these defenses相呼应，且概括了下文关于防御行为起源的内容，引出下文具体解释。故选C。
（5）语境衔接题。根据上文Yes，there are risks in exposing our true selves and emotions，but unlike hedgehogs，humans don't come with the quills.（是的，暴露真实的自我和情感存在风险，但与刺猬不同，人类没有天生的刺。）指出人类与刺猬的不同，下文So when we learn to lower our defenses for safe people，there's a chance we actually can have it all — the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt.（所以，当我们学会为可靠的人放下防备时，我们实际上有可能拥有一切——真正关系的温暖而无需害怕受伤。）说明人类可以为可靠的人放下防备，G选项We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect ourselves.（我们有能力选择我们信任的人，以及如何保护自己。）承上启下，既体现了人类与刺猬的不同，即人类有选择和保护自己的能力，又引出下文为可靠的人放下防备的内容，符合语境。故选G。
【点评】七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。
