For over twenty years, fried chicken had been my absolute favourite food. I would have it at least three times a week, whether it was from a fast-food joint, a local diner, or even homemade. I planned my outings around places that served delicious fried chicken. There were times when I tried to cut back on it, especially when I started to gain some weight, but I always ended up giving in to it within a few days.
This year, a series of events changed my relationship with fried chicken forever. I began experiencing frequent stomachaches and indigestion (消化不良). Doctors couldn’t directly link these problems to fried chicken, but I noticed that every time I ate it, my discomfort worsened. Additionally, I started to realize that the once-mouthwatering smell and taste now left a heavy, greasy (油腻的) feeling in my mouth that I couldn’t ignore. One evening, after finishing a large bucket of fried chicken, I felt so sick that I couldn’t sleep well all night. That was the turning point. I decided that enough was enough.
Why was it so hard to let go before Is there really something addictive in fried chicken While there’s no official” fried chicken addiction” listed in medical books, experts point out factors that could contribute to its attraction. Dr. Johnson from a nutrition research centre mentions two key reasons: the high-fat content and the combination of spices. The high-fat content makes the brain release “happy chemicals” (endorphins), making us feel good, while the unique spices excite our taste buds, making us want more.
Now, I’m on Day 35 of my “fried-chicken-free” journey. The first week was tough. I had strong desires and even felt a bit down at times. But as the days passed, I started to feel better. My stomach problems became less frequent, and I even noticed that I had more energy. I’m really proud of myself for breaking this long-standing habit. If I can overcome my love for fried chicken, I believe I can overcome any other challenging habit in my life.

On December 6, 2025, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York launched its AR Ancient Egyptian Art Immersive Exhibition, a project designed to let visitors “interact” with 3D-rendered relics like the Rosetta Stone replica via mobile devices. A December 2025 research brief from Museum Management and Curatorship pointed out that while global museums have rushed to adopt AR technology since 2025, few have studied how different age groups respond to such digital experiences.
To fill this gap, the Met teamed up with researchers to conduct a 10-day trial from January 8 to 17. They divided 300 visitors into two groups: Group A (18–25 years old, digital natives) and Group B (60+ years old, traditional museum-goers). Each visitor was given a pre-installed AR device and asked to complete three tasks: “touch” a virtual papyrus scroll, “assemble” a broken statue, and “listen” to a simulated ancient priest’s narration. Researchers recorded their operation time, error rates, and post-visit satisfaction scores.
The results showed stark differences between the two groups. Group A finished all tasks in an average of 8 minutes with a 5% error rate, and 92% of them rated the experience “highly satisfying”, saying the AR feature made “dry historical facts come alive”. In contrast, Group B took an average of 22 minutes with a 41% error rate; 67% of them complained that the device’s operation steps were too complicated, and some even abandoned the tasks halfway. The biggest pain point for older visitors was the lack of voice guidance—they had to rely on text instructions that were hard to read on small screens.
On January 10, 2026, the museum revised the AR system based on the feedback: it added one-click activation, voice prompts in multiple languages, and enlarged text options. A follow-up survey of 50 Group B visitors who re-experienced the exhibition found that their average task time dropped to 12 minutes, error rate fell to 12%, and satisfaction jumped to 89%. Dr. Lisa Carter, the lead researcher, noted, “Digitalization in museums shouldn’t just cater to young people. The key to success is to design inclusive experiences that bridge the tech gap between generations.”
8. What is the main content of Paragraph 2
A. The purpose of the AR exhibition
B. The process of the research trial
C. The problems of the AR device
D. The results of the satisfaction survey
9. What does the underlined word “stark” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Slight B. Subtle C. Gradual D. Obvious
10. What was the main difficulty for Group B visitors in the initial trial
A. They had no interest in ancient Egyptian art
B. They did not get voice guidance for the device
C. They did not know how to download the AR app
D. They were not familiar with the museum’s layout
11. What can we infer from Dr. Lisa Carter’s words
A. Young people are not the target audience of museum AR exhibitions
B. Inclusive digital design can help all visitors enjoy museum experiences
C. The Met’s AR exhibition will not be open to young visitors anymore
D. Traditional museum experiences are more popular than digital ones
D
A team of researchers from the United States and Switzerland have reported the discovery of a previously unknown compound (化合物) in chloraminated drinking water, which is drunk by more than 113 million people in the United States.
Inorganic chloramines are commonly used to disinfect (消毒) drinking water to safeguard public health from diseases. The researchers have now identified the compound called chloronitramide anion as an end product of inorganic chloramine decomposition. While its toxicity (毒性) is not presently known, its widespread existence and similarity to other toxic compounds are concerning and call for further study to assess its public health risk.
Julian Fairey, the first co-author of the paper published in Science, noted that researchers had known about the new compound for decades but had been unable to identify it. He himself began trying to uncover the mystery 10 years ago. “It’s a very stable chemical with a low molecular weight,” Fairey said. “It’s a chemical very difficult to find. The hardest part was identifying it and proving it was the structure we were saying it was.”
Definitely, there will be questions about the health risks posed by this new compound, which could not be previously evaluated in any toxicity studies. Fairey explained, “It’s well recognized that when we disinfect drinking water, there is some toxicity that’s created. A certain number of people may get cancer from drinking water over several decades. But we haven’t identified what chemicals are driving that toxicity. A major goal of our work is to identify these chemicals and the reaction pathways through which they form.”
Whether chloronitramide anion is linked to any cancer or other health risks will be assessed in future work by academics and regulatory agencies, such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. At the very least, toxicity studies can now be started on this compound thanks to this discovery. “Even if it is not toxic,” Fairey explained, “identifying it can help us understand the pathways for how other compounds are formed, including toxins. If we know how something is formed, we can potentially control it.”
12. What can be known about the new compound from the first two paragraphs
A. Whether it is toxic or not remains unknown.
B. It has little in common with other compounds.
C. It rarely exists in chloraminated drinking water.
D. Millions of Americans are being threatened by it.
13. What did Fairey say about studying the new compound in paragraph 3
A. It was quite challenging. B. He started it just recently.
C. Most researchers opposed it. D. It was finished ten years ago.
14. Why is it necessary to study the chemicals in chloraminated drinking water
A. They make drinking water less tasty.
B. They may be harmful to human health.
C. They are used to measure water quality.
D. They generate something against cancer.
15. Which of the following shows Fairey’s opinion
A. Toxicity studies can’t be carried out currently.
B. It is not difficult to identify various compounds.
C. Chloronitramide anion gives rise to health risks.
D. The identification of the new compound is valuable.

The Digital Doctor: A Double-Edged Sword
In our increasingly connected world, the way we manage our health is changing. Faced with minor illnesses like a persistent cough or headache, many of us now instinctively reach for our smartphones rather than the phone to book a doctor’s appointment. _____16_____. This immediate access to a vast encyclopedia (百科全书) of medical knowledge makes healthcare appear more accessible than ever before.
_____17_____. The condition, known as “cyberchondria”, describes a state of health anxiety caused by excessive online searching. The process often works like this: an individual researches a common symptom, only to find it could be linked to a severe illness. This can lead to self-misdiagnosis (自我误诊) and intense, unnecessary worry. _____18_____. They advise the initial step in treatment is to drastically (极大地) reduce the patients’ internet using.
While the web holds a wealth of information, it critically lacks professional judgment. A face-to-face consultation (就诊) with a doctor provides not just a diagnosis, but also context, reassurance, and a tailored treatment plan. But a trend makes doctors feel challenged. They sometimes find patients arriving with printouts or descriptions of vague conditions they have self-diagnosed. _____19_____.
However, the internet is not solely a disruptive (破坏性的) force. As Professor Sue Ziebland from the University of Oxford has found through her research, online information is becoming a common part of patient-doctor conversations. _____20_____. This collaborative approach can lead to more informed discussions. Ultimately, it seems that while the virtual world can offer a helpful dose of information, the human medical expert remains irreplaceable for their experience and empathetic care.
A. Some apps even enable remote patient monitoring.
B. It can make the consultation process more complex.
C. Hence, building trusted medical websites is essential.
D. Online resources offer instant guidance on all health issues.
E. Experts find many such patients spend too much time online.
F. However, this convenience comes with a significant disadvantage.
G. Therefore, doctors now often discuss online findings with patients.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Torrie Norwood was a girl student at Lakewood High School, which offered a life-saving course. Torrie was very interested and she was registered at the class. Instructor Erika Miller was a long-time and skilled teacher, who taught basic life support, CPR (心肺复苏), along with Heartsaver First Aid. Erika stressed that life-saving skills were very important. To save a person’s life, you must perform CPR within 4-6 minutes. “You never know when an emergency will occur,” Erika said. “But you know what you should do at a crucial moment.” When Torrie finished the course last Friday, she was glad to earn her certification.
The next day Torrie and her three classmates had just spent a typical Saturday night out when they decided to head home. As they drove back to their hometown of St. Petersburg, Florida, a speeding pickup truck crashed into them. Then the screaming started. “It’s gonna blow!” yelled the gathering crowd as the pickup truck went up in smoke.
Torrie’s door wouldn’t open, but her window had been knocked out during the crash, so she was forced to climb through her window to get out. Two of her classmates, both unhurt, were also able to free themselves from the vehicle.
But when Torrie turned around, she didn’t see Simmons running with them. Torrie realized that her friend Simmons was still in the car. Torrie had to run back to the car as fast as she could. She was still in there—unresponsive in the back seat. There was glass and blood everywhere. Things didn’t look good.
Simmons had hit her head on a rear passenger window. The great force resulted in life-threatening injuries. After pulling Simmons out from the car quickly, Torrie gently laid her on the ground and checked her vital signs, unable to detect a pulse (脉搏).
注意∶
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Para.1
Instead of freezing in fear, Torrie kept calm.
