In McKinney, Texas, the Grandma Stand has become a local highlight. Appearing in November in Downtown Square and community markets, this free pop-up booth draws neighbors in for heartening conversations, especially during times when loneliness or stress can creep in. Organized on McKinney Main Street, it brings people together, allowing them to connect through shared stories and moments of warmth.
This feel-good experience invites anyone to stop by, sit a spell, and share a conversation with a “grandma” — wise, warm, and wonderfully non-judgmental. As Grandma Nancy recently told CBS News with a smile, “Grandmas are loving people as a rule.” Her words capture exactly what makes this space so special — a welcoming spot where people of all ages can pause, talk, laugh, or simply be listened to.
The concept began back in 2012 in New York City. After seeing how a heartfelt chat with his 95-year-old grandmother Eileen lifted a friend’s spirits, Mike Matthews knew there was something powerful in grandmotherly presence. What started with a lemonade-stand-style booth became a regular Saturday event on street corners across the city. Even after Eileen passed away at the remarkable age of 102, Matthews felt the world still needed that gentle listening ear, so he revived the Stand with a bright purple booth (Eileen’s favorite color) and a circle of grandmas ready to offer encouragement and wise insight.
Admittedly, it’s true that everyone needs a listening ear sometimes, and in the gentle wisdom of a grandma, we see this gift in its purest form. In a world that often feels fast-paced and digitally distant, the Grandma Stand is a delightful reminder of something timeless — healing power in genuine human connection. It’s a gentle nudge to slow down, hear one another, and remember that empathy is something we all can and should give.
4. Which can be used to describe the grandmas at the Stand
A. Wise but critical. B. Attentive but demanding.
C. Professional and instructive. D. Warm-hearted and receptive.
5. What is the key feature of the Grandma Stand service
A. It highlights wise suggestions.
B. It is free and open to anyone.
C. It functions as a lemonade-style stand.
D. It provides professional counseling sessions.
6. Why did Mike Matthews restart the Grandma Stand
A. To memorize his grandma. B. To market its purple booth.
C. To meet the need of heartening listening. D. To encourage more grandmas to participate.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. More than a Grandma Stand
B. Reducing Stress in Urban Life
C. In Honor of an Excellent Grandma
D. Strengthening the Sense of Community
C
The artificial sweetener aspartame (阿斯巴甜) can be found in everything from chewing gum to fizzy drinks and tabletop sweeteners. A new study of mice suggests that even small amounts of aspartame may negatively affect heart and brain health in the long term.
Over the course of a year, researchers led by a team from the Center for Cooperative Research in Biomaterials in Spain had been adding small amounts of aspartame to the diets of male mice. This dose, given three days every two weeks, was about one-sixth of the currently acceptable daily human intake set by the World Health Organization.
By the end of the study, these mice lost more weight than untreated mice, having 10-20% less body fat. Moreover, they developed worrying signs of heart and brain damage. The hearts of mice given aspartame showed reduced pumping efficiency and minor structural changes. Their brains also revealed changes in glucose (葡萄糖) absorption, first increasing but then dropping significantly, which could reduce the energy available for proper brain function. This was reflected in the fact that aspartame-treated mice struggled more with memory and learning tasks. For example, they moved slower and spent longer escaping from mazes, showing cognitive decline.
“The study demonstrates that long-term exposure to artificial sweeteners can have a detrimental impact on organ function even at low doses, which suggests that current consumption guidelines should be critically re-examined,” the researchers wrote in their published paper.
Although the researchers noted that the cognitive changes were “relatively mild” compared with earlier studies in which mice consumed aspartame daily or for a longer period, they still advised extreme caution. They suggested that children and adolescents should avoid taking in it as much as possible, especially as a regular part of their diet unless the neurological (神经系统的) effects of aspartame are well-understood enough to guarantee their safety.
8. How did the researchers conduct the research
A. By studying a case. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing different subjects. D. By referring to former researchers.
9. What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Side. B. Uncertain. C. Harmful. D. Temporary
10. What do the researchers suggest children and teenagers doing
A. Taking aspartame because it is safe.
B. Minimizing their intake of aspartame.
C. Replacing aspartame with natural sugar.
D. Increasing their intake of aspartame to lose weight.
11. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To introduce a study on aspartame.
B. To call on people to resist aspartame.
C. To prove that artificial sweeteners are safe.
D. To present the research process about aspartame.

Like most three-year-olds, Aisha could be a handful — but she’s an 11-year-old orangutan (红毛猩猩) at the San Diego Zoo. Her habit of bothering her parents by pulling their fur and stealing their snacks echoes the naughtiness of bored human kids throwing fits in supermarket checkout lines, sparking a curious question: is this similarity merely surface-level, or a sign of shared cognitive roots in play, learning and social bonding
Since 2005, researchers have probed into teasing in humans and great apes, exploring its tricky position between harmless play and mild aggression. Playful teasing, from silly tricks to lighthearted jokes, lets humans test social boundaries and showcase the strength of their relationships. Notably, studies suggest great apes do it too; this challenges the long-held idea that humor is a unique human trait.
The research journey kicked off with a memorable observation: a baby orangutan was swinging from a rope, repeatedly offering a piece of bark and receiving one from its mother lying on a straw bed. This playful back-and-forth followed the core “setup-and-punchline” structure of a child’s favorite hide-and-seek joke. In 2020, a research team launched a video-based study on zoo apes — orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees and bonobos (倭黑猩猩) — revealing consistent teasing behaviors across species, despite their wildly diverse social structures: tree-dwelling orangutans living alone, ground-dwelling gorilla families, and complex chimpanzee and bonobo communities.
Researchers created a coding system to find out the key traits of playful teasing: unfixed actions without any bad intentions, surprise elements, repetitive gestures, and the teaser pausing to check the target’s reaction. Young apes teased most often, running around to playfully hit, grab toys, or hide behind rocks to surprise peers gently, but adults joined in too — like Sandra, a clever chimpanzee who repeatedly blocked a youngster’s attempts to use a stick on a feeder, just for the fun of it. Targets rarely reacted aggressively. Instead, they ignored the teaser, playfully waved them away, or even returned the mischief with a friendly tickle or a good-natured nudge.
This charming behavior fosters critical social skills: teasers must predict others’ responses, which is a foundational ability for living in complex social groups. Found in all four great ape species, playful teasing likely dates back 13 million years to our shared ancestor — a fact that proves the first joke was told long before humans existed. Today, scientists invite animal lovers worldwide to share their own stories of animal teasing online, unlocking more delightful secrets of cross-species humor.
12. Why does the author mention Aisha at the beginning
A. To introduce a research question.
B. To emphasize her childish naughtiness.
C. To prove apes’ cognitive similarity to humans.
D. To highlight the impact of boredom on behavior.
13. What can we infer about humor from the study
A. Apes have humor-related traits.
B. It is achieved by fixed actions.
C. It mainly helps adults guide young apes’ behavior.
D. Apes in complex societies show more sophisticated humor.
14. What can be learned about the study on ape teasing
A. Teasing can cause conflicts. B. Further research should be done.
C. It focuses on a single ape species. D. Teasing is different from harmless play.
15. What is mainly talked about in the passage
A. Analysis of social functions in apes.
B. Comparison of apes’ diverse social structures.
C. Exploration in the roots of cross-species humor.
D. Investigation into social functions of ape teasing.

As the family watched their favorite TV show together, they heard Mark’s dad’s trademark cough. Every time he heard that sound, Mark’s heart felt heavy. He shifted uncomfortably in his seat, trying to focus on the show, but his mind continued to drift to thoughts of all the damage his dad was doing to his lungs by smoking.
Mark just didn’t understand. His dad was a great dad — he spent a lot of his spare time with him playing outside and watching TV. Plus, he was really smart, so why would he be so stupid as to risk his health by smoking so much What if it caused a serious disease Had he ever considered how heartbroken it would make him and his mom
Mark’s mind wandered back to a conversation he had overheard between his parents. His mom had been pleading (恳求) with his dad, her voice full of worry. “You need to think about your health, for Mark’s sake if not for your own,” she had said. But his dad just brushed her off, saying he was too stressed to quit.
One evening, Mark approached his mom to discuss the issue. “I’ve tried to persuade him to quit,” Mark’s mom expressed with a sigh. “But he always gets annoyed whenever I bring up the subject.” She looked tired and defeated. “At least your dad is considerate with his smoking; he never does it indoors or around others. He even changes his clothes when coming home to prevent us from smelling the smoke. Despite that, it’s still so hard on him, on us…”
The next day at school, Mark was playing basketball with his classmate Tim on the court. “Hey, does either of your parents smoke ” he asked. “Yeah, my dad smokes, but he’s cut down in the past year,” replied Tim. “Oh, how did he do that ” Mark asked curiously. “I don’t really know what happened. I guess he just realized it was time for a change,” said Tim, as he threw the ball back to Mark. This gave Mark a ray of hope and an idea.
注意：
(1)续写词数应150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Mark decided to take action, hoping to encourage his dad to change.
