In my old life, I wasn't a“morning person”. Then I had children, whose needs demanded an early start. Now they' re older, but I can't shake the early-rising routine. They' re the only part of the day reserved for just my own needs. I get genuine satisfaction from my early productivity. I' ve written more, exercised more consistently, and approached challenges clearly.
But every transformation comes with a price. And mine has been paid in evening hours—— those crucial moments when families reconnect, when teenagers may open up, and when marriages deepen. I have become a person who gives the best of herself to the morning and offers only the worst to the night. My husband prefers to stay up late, so he handles the evening tasks. It's an efficient arrangement, but it has created an unintended difference: I get our daughters' sleepy mornings and he gets their sharing nighttime moments. The cost feels particularly high as my girls, now 12 and 16, have moved toward a later bedtime. Teenagers are active at night by biological design. My fading evening energy has influenced all my relationships.
I wonder if this is simply aging. But I suspect that in making the most of the early hours,I have changed not just my sleep schedule but my time with family. The energy I pour into morning workouts and emails has to come from somewhere. That somewhere is everywhere else.
I know I' ll never come alive at midnight, but I am learning to stretch the boundaries of my days. The balance isn't about becoming less of a morning person, but about leaving space for connection even when it doesn't match my body's clock.
24. Why does the author keep rising early
A. To do morning chores. B. To satisfy personal needs.
C. To transform a bad habit. D. To match her husband's schedule.
25. What influence does the family arrangement have
A. The father is worn out at night. B. The children are willing to share.
C. The family members grow closer. D. The author fails to bond with her kids.
26. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The author's reflection on the routine. B. The author's complaint about aging.
C. The author's concern about the marriage. D. The author's praise for morning workouts.
27. What message does the text convey
A. Sticking to personal routine brings joy. B. Rising early promises a productive life.
C. Adjusting for family is deep wisdom. D. Refusing to change causes lifelong regret.
C
Some kids struggle with math. Now, scientists have pinpointed some of the specific thinking processes and brain regions that might explain the reason.
In the new study, researchers tested second - and third-grade kids with and without math learning disabilities by showing them two numbers from 1 to 9 and giving the kids a few seconds to pick which number they thought was larger. The researchers recorded how long it took kids to answer questions and observed kids' brain activities using an MRI scanner. The team analyzed the data about the kids' performance and behavior using a complex mathematical analysis designed to find patterns in behavior, like how carefully children answered throughout the experiment and how they changed their behavior after mistakes. They then compared those behavior patterns with brain activity.
“We weren't interested in the performance of this numeral task but how they approached the task differently between the two groups,” says Hyesang Chang, a cognitive neuroscientist atSan José State University in California.
From the MRI data, Chang and colleagues found that the lack of caution in kids with math learning disabilities when giving answers was associated with lower activity in the middle frontal gyrus, a brain region associated with processing numbers, focus, impulse control and adapting to changing circumstances. Meanwhile, not slowing down after errors was associated with lower activity in another brain region involved in detecting errors and monitoring performance.
Identifying these brain regions suggests that explaining differences in math skills is more complex than finding one part of the brain that handles math and numbers.“Instead, the study helps us know brain areas that process information and find errors are key,” says MarieArsalidou, a developmental cognitive neuroscientist at York University in Toronto, who wasn't involved in the study.“We' re learning that there' re many regions involved.”
One insight of the new work is that there are hidden mechanisms that differentiate students who may potentially have math learning difficulties. Future interventions could involve teaching kids to think about how they are solving problems and even teaching them different problem-solving strategies.
28. How did the researchers conduct the study
A. They tested the kids' expressive ability.
B. They controlled the kids' behavior patterns.
C. They graded the kids' academic performance.
D. They evaluated the kids' numeral task response.
29. What may affect the kids' math ability according to the study
A. The efficiency of processing numbers.
B. The willingness to make an adjustment.
C. The activity level of certain brain regions.
D. The competence in monitoring performance.
30. What may help kids with math learning disabilities
A. Intense training. B. Proper instructions.
C. Insightful answers. D. Complex mechanisms.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. What lies behind math learning difficulties
B. What shapes kids' math learning awareness
C. How can we avoid making math mistakes
D. How can we improve math performance

A wildfire burns in the hills of a Los Angeles suburb, leaping from one land of dry brush to another as it approaches a group of homes. The landscaping at the first house burns, but the house itself stubbornly refuses to catch fire: any small flames that start along its walls or roof quickly die out. There's no water in sight—— the flames are being stopped by sound waves. This kind of fire suppression may soon play a vital role in fighting wildfires.
The key ingredients for a fire are heat, fuel and oxygen; take one away, and the flames fade. Sound waves can kill a fire by pushing oxygen molecules(分子) away from the fuel,preventing the fire getting the air it needs to continue burning. Geof Bruder, who researched heat energy transformation at NASA, co-founded Sonic Fire Tech to build a sound-generating machine for this purpose.“It's basically vibrating(振动) the oxygen faster than the fuel can use it, so you block the chemical reaction,” Bruder says.
“The influence of sound on flames is well known,” says Albert Simeoni, head of the department of fire protection engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts.“The challenge is to expand the technology without creating disrupting or even damaging sound effects.” Sonic solves this challenge by using infra sound(次声波). While previous efforts used sound waves in the range of 30 to 60 hertz, which can be produced with simpler equipment, Sonic stays at or below 20 hertz. These waves can't be heard by people, and they travel farther than higher-frequency waves.
“Sound waves can affect fire strongly, but they work only on small flames,” says ArnaudTrouvé, chair of the University of Maryland's department of fire protection engineering.Nevertheless, homeowners and companies are ready to give it a try: Sonic is working with twoCalifornia companies to demonstrate its technology. Homeowners have also signed contracts with the company, which is aiming to have 50 pilot tests early in 2026.
32. What does the underlined word“suppression” mean in paragraph 1
A. Prevention. B. Stimulation. C. Detection. D. Promotion.
33. How does the sound-generating machine work
A. It cuts off the chemical energy. B. It takes away the essential fuel.
C. It speeds up the oxygen vibration. D. It cools down the heat temperature.
34. How was the problem of sound effects solved
A. By improving simpler equipment. B. By broadening wave frequency range.
C. By employing lower-frequency waves. D. By promoting production of the device.
35. What can we learn from Arnaud Trouvé's words
A. He doubts the economic prospect. B. He implies the technical limitation.
C. He celebrates the potential application. D. He encourages more demonstration.

In the age of constant digital exposure, there is a widespread problem—— sleep could be challenging to get. 36 They are struggling with nonstop information, unfinished text message exchanges, strong desires to check social media, work worries, and self-reflections. To prevent overthinking stealing your sleep, here are three easy-to-apply ways.
Give your thoughts a place to land
When your mind believes it must hold on to every thought, these thoughts can feel like planes circling to touch down. 37 A good old-fashioned paper and pen next to your bed is far better than picking up your phone to write on your notes app. Phone in hand, you will likely start checking social media or news. Writing down your thoughts on paper tells your brain they are not ignored but safely stored, relaxing your mind.
38
Any gathering of mindfulness experts would provide enough evidence of how overthinking lives in imagined futures and in replayed (often mistakenly) pasts. Healthy sleep lives only in the here and now. So, feel the warmth of your blanket, the comfort of your body on your bed,and that super pleasant feeling of letting yourself go before falling asleep. 39
Realize sleep isn't from removing all thoughts
Your goal for a good night's sleep is not to push all your thoughts away. 40 Gently reminding yourself how far you have come in life will help you stop worrying about what you have to do. Sleep is not about clearing your thoughts, but instead about how you hold on to them when you pull the blanket over you at night.
A. So, land them on a paper runway.
B. Clarify your thoughts to the fullest
C. Secure your thoughts to the present
D. This helps win your sleep back instantly.
E. Overthinking in bed is difficult to address.
F. Rather, the best way is to respond to them properly.
G. Many people are lying in bed with their minds overthinking.

On warm summer days, I would bring my notecards to Dundonald Park. It was there that Ifirst 41 tai. ohi.
I had some 42 starts. After learning the first eight steps in a windowless basement, I took a break and never returned. The second 43 , months later, was relatively 44 . I found a class in a much brighter space.
I had thought that I would master the 108 movements. 45 right, but wrong in reality. Rather, I quickly knew, what was required was to change my own 46 .
After six months, I still found it difficult to complete even the opening 13 moves. The 47 needed for such slow progress was NOT the way I normally approached physical activity. I found it almost 48 . Previously, any sport that I couldn't do easily, I just rejected.
I also needed 49 the excuses, my favorite strategy for avoidance. Declaring thatI can't tell left from right naturally wouldn't 50 .
Oh, one more thing: I needed to listen. This 51 came powerfully in my first master class where I was 52 . As is required, all the others in the class stopped and turned to 53 me while the instructor corrected my positioning. On it went probably for only a few minutes, but it seemed like 54 . However, as I corrected, my emotion shifted from humiliation(耻辱) to 55 . I realized I was learning not just a new step but a new way of being in the world—— truly listening, open to correction, deeply grateful.

The final exams at Oakwood High were around the corner, and with them, a whispered topic had spread among the seniors: the“Special Room”——a separate, quieter room for students with special needs. With an approved note, students could gain extra time for tests in the room.
Leo knew all about it. He was the kind of student who filled his textbooks with colored words and stayed up late reviewing, yet his scores remained frustratingly average. However, his friend. Ethan, who always passed exams effortlessly, should have got the approved note. Leo felt a wave of unease.
The pressure peaked when his father, who was worried about college, suggested,“Have you thought about applying for the‘Special Room’ It might help!” The message was clear.Hoping to relieve the growing anxiety of his own as well as his family's, Leo applied for the“special room” and eventually he secured the official approval. The note in his hand felt heavy, a clear solution bringing no peace.
The evening before the crucial chemistry exam, Leo stared at the note beside his textbook,torn by an inner conflict:“I am not sick; I am just slow. This note is an official permit, but why do I feel like a cheater to use it I have worked hard for so long, but is it enough for my future Still, is it worth losing my self-respect ”
On exam day, the hallway was a river of nervous energy. To the left was the entrance to the“Special Room”, watched over by Mr. Smith. Leo saw Ethan show his approved note and bounce away. Leo's hand reached his own pocket, where the note was folded. He felt it there,heavy. The sounds of the crowd around him seemed to fade, leaving him standing between two choices: the ready-made help in his pocket, and the door to the main examination hall, where he would be tested on his own.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为150左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
Then, determined, Leo walked into the main examination hall. Weeks later, the long-awaited exam results were posted.

Then, determined, Leo walked into the main examination hall. The rustling of papers and the quick instructions from the teacher made his heart beat faster. He took a deep breath, pushing aside thoughts of the special room he had given up. As the exam began, he focused solely on the questions, recalling his colored words.Time pressed on, yet he refused to be discouraged by any difficulty. He kept working steadily, determined to secure every point he could earn. The final minutes were a race, but as he placed his pen down, profound calm settled over him. He had faced the challenge directly and honestly, with nothing but his own preparation.
Weeks later, the long-awaited exam results were posted. Leo found his name on the list —— a‘B’ in chemistry, a grade that mirrored his honest effort. A sense of quiet satisfaction warmed him. As he turned to leave,Mr. Smith came up to him.“Leo,” he said, with clear appreciation in his voice,“I saw you choose the main hall that day. That took integrity. In my book, that counts for more than any‘A’.” Those words struck Leo deeply. He realized then that the true reward wasn't the letter on the board, but the unshakable respect he had earned for himself. He had taken a far more important test and, most importantly, he had passed it.

M: It's essential to grasp that refusing a request doesn't mean you are bad. Avoid apologizing or making excuses.When faced with demands, take time to assess your abilities and what you prioritize. Before agreeing to any request, evaluate requests thoughtfully.
W: So, how do people-pleasers set boundaries
M: Begin by reflecting on your personal values and limits. With a clear understanding of these elements, you can communicate your boundaries to others.
W: Thanks, Dr. Lee. That's really valuable for our listeners.
M: My pleasure.
Text 10 储备适宜的急救箱
While there are a number of first-aid boxes on the market, they often lack some things you need or have other things that you don't need. Instead of buying such a first-aid box, you can save money and get everything you need in the box by creating your own. Select a small box or bag, which is light and can hold all of your first-aid materials. This is of particular importance if you need it while you are taking a trip away from home. Separate your first-aid box or bag into two sections. One section should include all of your basic medical supplies, such as bandages, while the second one should include medicine. Make sure that your box contains important basic medicine. There should be enough for your family, which means that the larger your family is, the more medicine you need in your first-aid box. When it comes to bandages and other lightweight items, the more, the better. Keep other necessary things in your first-aid box as well. For example, if someone in your family has high blood pressure, the first-aid box is a great place to keep blood pressure medicine, in case there is an emergency when you are far from medical help. You might also put emergency phone numbers, snake bite medicine or other items into your first-aid box.
