Recently I came across my old copies of “Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle” books. When I was young, I thought they were funny stories. Reading them as a parent, though, I saw something dark that kids wouldn’t notice. The books tell of Mrs. Piggle - Wiggle, who helps neighborhood parents fix their children’s behavior with special “medicines” that create frightening experiences.
If Little Melody cries too much, she gets “Crybaby medicine” and nearly drowns in her own tears. Jody skips school to work on a tree house, so “Ignorance cure” makes him forget how to read. For Wendy, who tattles (打小报告), “Tattle Pills” make a dark cloud come from her mouth.
What disturbs me now isn’t just the extreme punishments - it’s what they represent. Parents in the stories treat Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle like a hero because she makes their children “evened out.” The message is clear: children who stand out need to be fixed.
As a parent myself, I’ve seen how this pressure plays out in real life. I’ve watched schools send children home for asking too many questions during lessons. I’ve seen kids punished for not sitting perfectly still for six hours in classrooms. When children learn differently, move differently, or think differently, modern Mrs. Piggle-Wiggles come from everywhere, all promising ways to make unusual children fit in. But what exactly is being “fixed” Maybe the real problem is seeing a unique child as something to correct.
Now when I read these books to my kids, I imagine the “uncured” kids all grown up. Maybe Wendy becomes a brave lawyer. Jody, the boy who skipped school becomes an architect designing sustainable homes. And Melody, the crier becomes an activist, her emotional sensitivity helping her fight for justice.
Then I look at my own children and hope that someday they’ll be free to be themselves — not perfectly behaved copies of what adults want, but curious people who change the world because they never quite fit in.
24. What do the cures in paragraph 2 have in common
A. They require parental participation.
B. They reflect outdated medical practices.
C. They turn behaviors into extreme consequences.
D. They use medication for psychological problems.
25. What does the underlined phrase “evened out” mean
A. Treated fairly by adults. B. Made to behave similarly.
C. Given equal opportunities. D. Helped to solve problems.
26. Which would be viewed as modern “Mrs. Piggle-Wiggles”
A. AI tutors that fix behavioral problems. B. Educational systems that value diversity.
C. Online platforms for personalized learning. D. Multi-level tests for students’ achievements.
27. What is the author’s main argument
A. “Problems” in kids may be strengths. B. Parents rely too heavily on authorities.
C. Schools should adopt flexible behavior rules. D. Children’s books often contain harmful messages.
C
Research led by King’s College London offers convincing evidence that viewing original artwork in a gallery does more than uplift the spirit — it measurably improves physical health. The study demonstrates that this activity can significantly reduce stress and may even strengthen the immune system.
To investigate the physiological effects of looking at art, researchers designed an experiment involving 50 UK volunteers aged 18-40. Participants were divided into two matched groups based on age, gender, and baseline stress levels. One group visited the Courtauld Gallery to view original paintings by renowned artists such as Van Gogh and Gauguin, while the other observed high-quality digital reproductions of the same artworks in a neutral laboratory setting.
Throughout the 20-minute session, each participant wore research-grade digital watches that continuously monitored heart rate variability and skin temperature — key indicators of autonomic nervous system activity. Saliva (唾液) samples were collected immediately before and after the viewing period to measure biochemical changes. These samples were later analyzed for levels of cortisol, a hormone linked to stress, which is associated with inflammation (炎症) and chronic diseases.
Remarkably, researchers found that for those viewing original art, levels of the stress hormone dropped by 22%, whereas the control group levels fell by just 8%. Meanwhile, pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α), which are linked to stress and a number of chronic diseases, dropped by 30% and 28% respectively for gallery viewers, with no change in the control group. This suggests that art has a potentially calming effect on the body’s inflammatory responses.
“From a scientific perspective, the most exciting out-take is that art had a positive impact on three different body systems — the immune, endocrine (内分泌的), and autonomic systems — simultaneously. This is a unique finding, and something we were genuinely surprised to see,” explains Dr Tony Woods, who is the senior author of the study.
Though art has long been associated with improved well being, this study provides the scientific support that it’s healing for our body as well.
28. What was the main goal of the research
A. To compare different art styles’ effects. B. To promote visits to a specific art gallery.
C. To measure art’s physical impact scientifically. D. To prove authentic art boosts creativity greatly.
29. How was the experiment conducted
A. By using psychological questionnaires. B. By surveying artists and visitors separately.
C. By testing groups under different conditions. D. By focusing on short - term emotional changes.
30. What key change did original art cause
A. A sharp increase in heart rate. B. A rise in blood pressure levels.
C. A drop in participants’ skin temperature. D. A reduction in stress and inflammatory markers.
31. Why does Dr. Tony Woods call the discovery “unique”
A. It confirms art’s link to mental pleasure. B. It uses a new method for data collection.
C. It finds pressure levels drop significantly. D. It shows art benefits multiple body systems.
D
In 2015, I began focusing on cutting and offsetting (抵消) my carbon footprint from taking kerosene (煤油)-fueled flights. An online calculator revealed my annual flight emissions hit 15 metric tons, equal to three average people’s yearly total. So I started buying carbon offsets for 12 tons a year at around $10 monthly, with the funds going to eco-projects.
I know offsets don’t fully erase the environmental harm of flying. They only ease travelers’ guilt and are even offered by airlines during booking, acting like a self-imposed carbon tax to keep their own energy use in check. But voluntary offsets can never match aviation’s 2% share of human-caused carbon emissions.
For one thing, rising air travel demand, driven by the growing middle class will outweigh offset benefits. What’s more, offsets don’t guarantee real emission reduction — it’s hard to prove eco-projects rely on offset funds or that the neutralized carbon will never be released in the future. Critics call offsets a greenwashing tool, an excuse for people to avoid changing high-carbon habits.
Regardless of their relation to consumer trends, offsets aren’t a solution to the fundamental physics problem in aviation, which is that today’s long-distance passenger jets can’t take off without burning a high-energy-content fuel such as kerosene, with jet fuel demand set to surge by 2040.
Therefore, the only long-term fix for low-carbon air travel is electrification, which is making concrete progress and truly signals that low-carbon air travel is on the way. Test plane projects have replaced gas-powered engines with electric motors, a key step toward the ambitious goal of cutting aviation’s carbon emissions by 75% by 2050. Start-ups are also developing regional jets with wing batteries and hybrid-to-electric power systems.
Full aviation electrification will take decades due to needed advances in batteries and motors, yet its ongoing progress means it is undeniably the real future of green air travel.
32. What phenomenon does the author present in paragraph 1
A. People pay to counteract their flight carbon emissions.
B. Passengers’ annual flight emissions rise by three times.
C. Kerosene-fueled planes generate huge carbon discharge.
D. Average individual’s yearly carbon footprint is increasing.
33. What is the core physical problem in the aviation industry
A. Test planes haven’t fully electrified. B. Carbon offsets bring no practical impact.
C. Airlines drop carbon offsets from bookings. D. Some jets depend on high-energy fuel to fly.
34. What does the author intend to show by mentioning start-ups in paragraph 5
A. The technological gap in green aviation. B. The low likelihood of low-carbon air travel.
C. The substantial advancement of electric planes. D. The urgency of cutting aviation carbon emissions.
35. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Electrification: A Trick, Not a Treat. B. Carbon Offsets: A Band-Aid, Not a Cure.
C. Carbon Offsets: Feel Good and Do Good. D. Electrification: The Fix for Green Aviation.

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。
Psychologist Bennet Murdock first demonstrated the recency effect in a 1962 paper. ___36___
Participants listened to word lists containing 10 to 40 items. ___37___ Murdock’s findings revealed that memory performance varied with a word’s position in the list. The first few words were well - remembered, a trend called the primacy effect. Memory accuracy dropped sharply after these initial items but rose for the last eight words in the list. The final few words were the easiest to recall — that is the recency effect.
Murdock’s results formed the serial position curve: ___38___ It drops sharply for middle ones and rises again for final items. Importantly, the recency effect only occurs with immediate memory tests — a brief distraction removes it, while the primacy effect stays. This suggests the two effects rely on different cognitive processes. Though, its mechanism is more complex.
___39___ They have found the last thing you hear often affects your judgment most. For example, if a friend describes someone as kind, smart, generous, and boring, the final trait “boring” may excessively influence your judgment, leading to a less positive impression. Context shapes which effect dominates: recency is stronger with long lists or immediate impression - forming, while primacy prevails if you know you will judge beforehand.
In short, the recency effect refers to our tendency to better remember recently encountered information. ___40___ Items in the middle of a sequence are typically the most easily forgotten.
A. Memory is high for initial items.
B. The recency effect has been applied in education.
C. Social psychologists have also explored the recency effect.
D. The primacy effect, by contrast, favors items presented first.
E. The recency effect is an essential part of the serial position effect.
F. He examined how the order of words in a list influences human memory.
G. Immediately after they were given 90 seconds to recall as many words as possible.

Sumi is a single mother, and her daughter Anna is always nicknamed “Number 23” — she consistently ___41___ 23rd out of 50 students in exams. Every time Sumi hears that nickname, it makes her concerned.
At a gathering, kids shared ___42___, ambitious dreams — doctors, politicians, and more — and the adults clapped and praised them. Anna kept busy helping quietly: ___43___ soup, passing cookies, lost in her own little world. When ___44___ again, she smiled softly: “I want to be a teacher.” The room fell instantly quiet.
Sumi had done everything to boost Anna’s ___45___ — hiring tutors and packing “brain food” daily. Anna tried hard, but the ___46___ took its toll: loss of appetite, sleepless nights, constant sweat, and eventual illness. Upset, Sumi stopped pushing her, and Anna slowly bounced back to her ___47___ old self.
Weeks later, on a family trip, two top students — a straight-A star and a math Olympiad kid — fought over a piece of dessert. No one could calm them until Anna ___48___: “Let’s flip a coin.” That ended the conflict. Stuck in traffic later, she ___49___ everyone with jokes and turned candy boxes into paper animals, gifting one to each kid. The other parents beamed with ____50____.
Soon after, Anna’s teacher called: her grades didn’t change much, but a bonus question — “Who’s your favorite classmate ” — ____51____ almost everyone chose Anna, praising her ____52____, helpfulness, and inclusiveness. Some suggested making her class leader. Sumi cried, happy and ____53____, calling Anna a “real-life ____54____.” She grinned: “Mom, I’m not a hero. I want to be the one clapping, not the one clapped for.”
That simple answer changed Sumi — she finally understood Anna’s kind soul ____55____ far more than being “Number 23”.

Lin had poured his entire fortune into this dream. At a time when the Chinese language — with its tens of thousands of characters — ___58___ (struggle) to fit into Western technology, he devoted years ___59___ research, searching for an elegant solution. The fruit of his labor was a remarkable machine he named MingKwai (meaning “clear” and “quick”), ___60___ operation relied on a clever 72 - key system and “Magic Eye” window. By pressing just a few keys, a typist could locate the ___61___ (desire) character in the window and print it.
This “type-view-select” process is now the daily reality among hundreds of millions of people ___62___ (type) Chinese on their phones. It made Chinese typing a ___63___ (pure) visual exercise for the first time—one that didn’t rely on pronunciation ___64___ even require speaking the language.
Though MingKwai never made it into mass _____65_____ (produce), that single prototype still whispers of a dream that was far ahead of its time. Lin Yutang’s vision of a machine “for everyone to use” ultimately came true — not in heavy metal, but in devices carried by billions.

After cross-country practice, Cindy poured out her frustration to her mother in the car. She was exhausted not from running, but from dealing with Jenny, a gifted new teammate. Despite the two of them being elected co-captains, Jenny had recently begun threatening not to compete in the upcoming meet, giving various excuses. Cindy felt worn out from constantly persuading her.
Her mother listened patiently and then shared what she knew. Jenny was a foster (寄养) child whose younger brother had just been taken back by his biological father. While her brother was welcomed with open arms into a new future, Jenny was completely left out, deepening her feeling of being unwanted and without a true family.
Cindy’s frustration turned to understanding and sadness. She realized Jenny’s unusual behavior was not about the team, but a desperate cry to feel needed. The weight of Jenny’s loneliness became clear, replacing Cindy’s earlier annoyance with empathy.
The next day, Cindy looked for Jenny at school but couldn’t find her. Anxious that she might not show up at all, Cindy boarded the team bus, her worries piling up. The familiar smell of sweat and old seats filled the air, mixed with the sound of her teammates talking. As she scanned the seats, her eyes finally found Jenny sitting alone in the very back, her head against the cold window, headphones on as if building a wall between herself and the world. Most of the team were already settled.
Making her way down the narrow aisle with her bag, Cindy felt their eyes on her. She stopped beside Jenny’s seat, her own earlier resolve now mixed with a nervous hope to bridge the gap between them. For a moment, she just stood there, watching Jenny’s sad eyes in the window reflection, searching for the right words that might finally reach her.
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。
Cindy turned to Jenny and whispered that the team truly needed her.
