I switched to a flip phone (翻盖手机). It vastly improved my life. I felt empty and frustrated at how much time I spent on my smartphone. So I spent the last five years steadily stripping my phone down to the basics. Social media was the first to go, then email, then news apps, and then even internet browsers.
I long considered switching to a flip phone, but I always found an excuse to stay. Ultimately it was two of my students, 15- and 18-year-old sisters, who pushed me over the edge. Word spread around school that they had bought flip phones. If they were brave enough to take the plunge, I could, too. I spent $9 on a flip phone, plus $120 for a year of unlimited talk and text on a new number. For the last five months, I haven’t carried a smartphone with me, just my flip phone.
This is the charming, romantic side of owning a flip phone: more conversations, more eye contact, more connection. The separation between work and life is much more noticeable. I don’t overthink work emails all day, since I no longer carry my work email in my pocket. I am living more like my creative, curious, phone-free children.
This all sounds wonderful because it is wonderful. And now it’s confession time: I still have my smartphone. As it turns out, our addiction to smartphones is not just on an individual level. Intentionally or not, we have built structures that depend upon smartphone access, making it an essential feature of modern life. While most of the flip phone inconveniences are charming, some of them are so frustrating that they make you want to pull your hair out.
Despite that, I will continue to use a flip phone as my primary phone so I don’t have to carry a smartphone with me. And I will continue to evangelize for it. I hope many others get flip phones. We will all be better for it. If nothing else, it’ll be nice to have more people to talk to in the grocery line.

D. Negative feelings to smartphones.

A. They serve as a vital tool.
B. They make people overthink.
C. They represent the modern life.
D. They bring people many profits.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage

Tearing up, sweating, nose running and other bodily functions are all signs when you’ re eating spicy foods. Yet, millions of people worldwide actively seek out this burning feeling. The explanation lies not in our sense of taste, but in our complex nervous system and psychology.
The heat we perceive from chili peppers originates from capsaicin (辣椒素), a compound that acts as the plant’s chemical defense. It specifically targets TRPV1, a receptor (受体) present on nociceptors — the special nerve cells that detect potentially harmful factors, such as heat above 42℃. When activated, these cells trigger an instant alarm response, causing the body to react as if it’s been burned. This begs the question: why would we enjoy a feeling signaling potential danger
The enjoyment of spicy food is learned through adaptation of the nervous system. Initially,the brain misinterprets the capsaicin-caused heat as a potential threat, triggering an alarm-like response. Through repeated exposure, however, it receives consistent feedback indicating no actual tissue damage occurs. The feeling is gradually reassessed as safe and controllable,transforming the initial pain into a form of“benign masochism”. Much like the thrill of a roller coaster ride, the perceived danger — now under our command — becomes an internal part of the pleasure.
Individual tolerance varies. Genetics can influence how sensitive one’s TRPV1 receptors are to capsaicin. More importantly, people can gradually build up a tolerance, essentially training their bodies and brains to handle higher levels of spiciness. The receptors themselves become less responsive over time, and the brain’s predictive system becomes more accurate.
So what can you do if the spice becomes overwhelming Since capsaicin is fat- soluble,water is ineffective because it only spreads the compound. Dairy products like milk or yogurt are far better solutions — the fat and protein in them combine with the capsaicin and carry it away.
28. Why does eating chili peppers give people the burning feeling
A. Capsaicin briefly hurts taste buds. B. Chilli peppers bring potential danger.
C. Capsaicin triggers the reaction of TRPV1. D. Chilli peppers raise the body’s temperature.
29. Which experience is most similar to enjoying spicy food
A. Listening to music. B. Smoking cigarettes.
C. Exploring the Antarctic. D. Watching a horror film.
30. What does building a high spice tolerance involve
A. Conscious efforts. B. Genetic adaptation.
C. Blocking spiciness signals. D. Keeping receptors from responding.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Capsaicin’s Trick: A False Burning Alarm B. The Spice Lover’s Dilemma: Pleasure in Pain
C. The Body’s Signal: Physical Reactions to Spice D. The Art of Endurance: Building Spice Tolerance
D
A new major study suggests that maintaining healthy eating habits in midlife is linked to better aging in later years. Conducted by researchers from Harvard, the University of Copenhagen, and the University of Montreal, this study does not just focus on living a long life. Instead, it looks at “healthy aging,” which is defined as living to age 70 or older without major chronic diseases while maintaining good cognitive, physical, and mental health.
The team observed over 105,000 female and male health professionals in midlife for 30 years. Participants regularly completed detailed dietary questionnaires. The researchers scored these answers based on eight different healthy dietary patterns. These patterns, such as the Mediterranean diet or the DASH diet, generally encourage high intakes of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats, while limiting red and processed meats. They also carefully examined the amount of ultra-processed foods participants consumed.
The results are promising. A total of 9.3% of the population aged healthily. Overall, those who stuck to any of these healthy dietary patterns were more likely to age well. The top performer was the AHEI diet. People with high scores were much more likely to live past 70 in good health than those with low scores. Another strong option was the PHDI, which emphasizes plant-based foods while considering planetary health. In contrast, eating too much processed meat and sugary drinks lowered the chances of healthy aging.
The researchers emphasize that there is no “one-size-fits-all” diet. Healthy diets can be adapted to fit individual needs and preferences. The main goal is to eat mostly plant-based foods with a moderate inclusion of healthy animal products. This flexibility helps people maintain an independent and active quality of life as they age, which is a priority for both individuals and public health.
However, the study has some limitations. The participants were all health professionals, meaning their socioeconomic status and education levels might be higher than average. To apply the results more widely, future studies should repeat the research in populations with more diverse backgrounds.
32. How does the study define “healthy aging”
A. By living a long life without any illnesses.
B. By maintaining physical and mental health at 70.
C. By following a strict diet plan in midlife.
D. By avoiding animal-based foods totally.
33. What is a common feature of the recommended dietary patterns
A. They are high in red meat intake.
B. They strictly exclude all dairy products.
C. They encourage eating more plant-based foods.
D. They focus mainly on environmental protection.
34. What does the author suggest about healthy diets
A. They require people to eat the same foods.
B. They can be adapted to individual needs.
C. They are difficult to follow for young people.
D. They are better than medicine for diseases.
35. Why does the author mention the study’s limitation
A. To prove the study is unscientific.
B. To suggest the need for more diverse subjects.
C. To show health professionals eat poorly.
D. To indicate the diet is harmful.

The Popsicle Kids
A nearly empty box of Popsicles (棒冰) in the freezer, left from a grandchild’s visit, caught my attention. Initially, I wanted to throw it away, but my wife suggested we give the remaining Popsicles to the neighborhood children. Her suggestion changed our life and led us to a future full of “Popsicle Kids.” My wife and I, retired on Social Security, live in an apartment complex. After careers in sales and nursing, our daily concerns revolved around aches, pains, and dinner. We often wondered what good we were to the world.
That changed dramatically after we gave away the first Popsicle.
Minutes after watching a neighbor boy, a second grader, walk away with an icy treat, our doorbell rang. An adorable blond girl, about six, smiled sweetly, “Is it true you’re giving away Popsicles ”
With the box empty, we returned to our concerns.
Early the next morning, the doorbell rang repeatedly. Standing on our porch were the four children from the previous day. They vocalized their wants, chanting (有节奏地喊), “We want Popsicles! We want Popsicles!”
Looking into their eager young faces, I wondered, “What have I started ” Sensing a victory, they nodded eagerly when I explained the rules: ring the bell once, one Popsicle per day, and share something good about their day. But their thin shoulders bent downwards in disappointment when I mentioned they had to give something in return. I came to the rescue, suggesting they share something positive about their day, like what they learned at school or helping another student. Over time, new rules were added: “Ladies first,” “Don’t interrupt,” and “Properly get rid of the sticks.”
On holidays, they expressed their understanding of why the day was celebrated. Over the years, about fifty youngsters visited. Some became part of my life, like the four kids who joined me on the steps one spring to read “Where the Red Fern Grows.” We discussed catching crawfish, loving pets, and family relationships. This simple act of sharing Popsicles transformed our life, bringing joy and meaning to both the children and ourselves.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph1:
One night, another boy appeared at the door, saying “I don’t want a Popsicle; I just need to talk”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
I’ve sensed it’s more than Popsicles that bring these kids to our door.
