“Look at this.” I said to my friend Mandy, showing her the bright red flyer (传单) for a five-day art camp at White Cliff this summer. Mandy looked at the date. “It’s the last week of July.” she said. “That’s the same time as the Hill County Fair.”
I knew she would mention the fair. “Yes, but we always go.” I replied. Mandy handed the flyer back and started to look at the new books. “Tessa, you’re the (17) , but I’m not,” she smiled. “My little brother thought the tulips (郁金香) I painted were rocket ships.”
“You can learn to draw.” I encouraged her, not wanting to go to the camp (18) .
Later, I called my friends Emily and Yoshiko. Yoshiko was going to the fair, and Emily would be out of town in July. I sighed and let my head fall onto the flyer.

Mr. Weston, who was out for a walk, saw my work. “You’ve captured (抓住了) the strength of that tree.” he said.
“Thanks.” I smiled. He also gave me a tip about planting trees, “You have to (22) out the roots near the surface so the tree can get enough water. If planted only too deep they dry out.”
His words stayed in my mind as I drew. I realized I had been like a tree with mots in one (23) , too afraid to reach out.

A
I did not expect so many people to be here. Over five hundred were seated in rows. I could hear the sound of a cough or a child trying to stay quiet from time to time, but it all sounded muffled (模糊不清的) as if I was under water.
Every night, Ethan and I practiced hard until my voice got rough (沙哑的) and his fingers hurt. We were invited to perform at a national music concert. Usually we don’t have such opportunity to shine, so we wanted to give it our all. Every run-through we did, we’d fix a few mistakes but always find a few new ones in exchange. It was like two steps forward and one step back. Even though we sometimes disagreed, we stayed focused on our goal.
As we walked up onto the stage, I could feel a thousand sharp eyes on me. The air was completely still. The lights felt hot on my face. When the music began, I froze. My mouth opened, but no sound came out. Ethan slowed the piano down for a beat as he looked over at me. He knew something was wrong, but he continued onward as he had been trained to do. I searched madly for a solution, my eyes moving quickly around the darkened hall. I felt as if time had stopped.
Then, I locked eyes with Mom. Even at a distance, I could sense her gently mouthing the words to me as she had always done whenever I’d forget my lines, “Elise, you can do it.” I took a deep breath and my voice finally came out, strong and clear. Ethan and I rode through the rest of the song until the end, our voices and the piano fitting together perfectly. A moment of silence. Then, the whole audience (观众) rose to their feet in applause.
A month later, I felt like I was under water again. I walked onto the stage. As I looked up, I saw my mom. She watched me patiently and gave me a nod. Gradually, the pressure on my chest disappeared and I could breathe once more. I had done this before, and I would do it again.
25.From the passage, Elise was nervous because ________.
A. she didn’t practice enough with Ethan
B. she was worrying about her rough voice
C. she didn’t share the same goal with Ethan
D. she had to face a large audience in the hall
26.When Ethan started to play the piano, Elise ________.
A. lost herself in the beautiful music
B. tried to sing but couldn’t make a sound
C. felt something wrong with the stage lights
D. counted the beats of the song alongside him
27.What can we learn from the story
A. Continuous hard work will finally pay off.
B. Teamwork turns the impossible into reality.
C. Support from loved ones lights the path to confidence.
D. True strength comes from overcoming repeated failures.
B
As you sit in a lecture, pen and notebook ready, you start to take down every word. But before you get too absorbed in writing, here’s an intriguing (有趣的) piece of science: Taking notes word-for-word may not be the best way to truly remember what you learn.
Research suggests that copying information too closely can actually harm your brain’s ability to process and remember it, says Dr. Andrew Blake, a cognitive scientist at Stanford University. We get the details but often miss the key understanding.
Writing notes can transfer memory. This happens in two ways: We either shift the responsibility of remembering to the notes themselves, or we’re so occupied by the act of copying that we lose focus on the material being taught.
The first issue is memory dependency. When people know their notes are available, they’re less likely to put effort into absorbing the content. Similarly, if you save an important password in your phone, you’re less likely to memorize it since your brain feels there’s no need. This works well-until you can’t open your phone.
The second issue is distraction. Taking notes can distract us from the speaker’s emphasis, gestures, and overall message. The focus moves away from actively listening and interpreting the material to simply recording words. As we concentrate on writing, we miss the speaker’s clues that could help us get the main ideas, thus reducing our engagement with the content. We focus on the exact wording, structuring the layout, and keeping our handwriting readable, all of which redirects our attention away from truly understanding the lecture.
However, note-taking can strengthen memory-when done thoughtfully. If you summarize key ideas or add personal reflections, you’re engaging with the material in a way that strengthens memory. Combining information requires processing, which deepens understanding. Another advantage of good note-taking is that it creates a dependable reference. Memory is imperfect, influenced by emotions and other experiences, so correct notes serve as a trustworthy reminder of what was actually covered.
Memory weakens over time without practice. Thus, effective note-taking, when done thoughtfully, can be an excellent tool for learning and recalling important information.
28.What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To offer a solution. B. To present an experience.
C. To bring up a topic. D. To give a suggestion.
29.What can we infer about the effect of taking notes word-for-word
A. It helps students remember everything the speaker says.
B. It makes students focus too much on writing and miss important ideas.
C. It improves students’ ability to understand the main points.
D. It makes students more interested in the lecture.
30.What is the author’s purpose in writing this article
A. To encourage students to stop taking notes entirely.
B. To explain the benefits and problems of different note-taking methods.
C. To show that memory is more important than note-taking.
D. To criticize students who take notes during lectures.
C
Runners who meet visual and auditory distractions (视觉和听觉分心) may be more likely to suffer leg injuries, according to a research by the Association of Academic Physiatrists in Las Vegas. Runners often look for distractions from the task at hand. Whether it is music, texting, daydreaming, taking in the sights, or propping a book up on the treadmill (跑步机), more often than not a distraction is welcome. But, researchers from the University of Florida have recently discovered that those distractions may lead to injury.
Daniel Herman, MD, PhD, assistant professor at University of Florida, and his team carried out a research on the effect of visual and auditory distractions on 14 runners to judge what effect, if any, these distractions would have on things such as heart rate, how much a runner breathes per minute, how much oxygen is consumed by the body, the speed in which runners put force to their bodies, and the force the ground puts to the runners’ bodies when they come in touch with it.
The runners were all injury free at the time of the research and ran 31 miles each week. Dr. Herman’s team had each participant run on a treadmill three times. The first time was without any distractions. The second time added a visual distraction, during which the runners focus on a screen showing different letters in different colors with the runners having to notice when a specific letter-color combination appeared. The third time added an auditory distraction similar to the visual distraction, with the runners having to notice when a particular word was spoken by a particular voice.
When compared to running without distractions, the participants had faster application of force to their left and right legs, called loading rate, with auditory and visual distractions. They also experienced increased force from the ground on both legs, called ground reaction force, with auditory distractions. Finally, the runners are likely to breathe heavier and have higher heart rates with visual and auditory distractions than without any distractions at all.
“Running in environments with different distractions may affect running performance and injury risk,” explains Dr. Herman “Sometimes these things cannot be avoided, but you may be able to make the effect less. For example, when running a new route in a noisy environment such as during a destination marathon, you may not listen to something which may require more attention-like a new song.”
Dr. Herman’s team will continue to study the relationship between distracted running and leg injuries, and any effect this relationship has on different training techniques that use auditory or visual signals.
31.What does the word “propping” most likely mean in the first paragraph
A. turning over pages quickly
B. carrying something while moving
C. placing something in a steady position
D. buying a book for later use
32.Based on the research, runners with auditory distractions are likely to ________.
A. breathe heavier and have lower heart rates
B. gain a faster speed with slower loading rates
C. apply more force with less oxygen consumption
D. get an increased amount of ground reaction force
33.What can we infer from the passage
A. Running with distractions becomes uncommon nowadays.
B. Listening to a new song while running can make the performance better.
C. Runners are advised to avoid distractions in a destination marathon.
D. Runners are more likely to get injured in an environment without distractions.
34.What is probably the next task for Dr. Herman’s team
A. What decides training techniques.
B. What effective ways can cure leg injuries.
C. Why runners use auditory and visual signals.
D. How distractions should be used in training.
D
The question of whether it is possible to separate the artist from their work has been debated for a long time. Even though positive critical reviews about an artist’s behavior can improve their artistic achievements, people should treat artists as people who live apart from their work.
One of the reasons is that even artists have shortcomings. Like any other human being, an artist can make mistakes, and we cannot be judgmental of every person that makes mistakes. Cancel culture with endless criticism is related more to how we should disregard the artists when they make mistakes than with how their weaknesses can be used by the artists to create art that is unique.
Perhaps Kevin Hart’s words support this thought. He asks, “When did we get to a point where life was supposed to be perfect Where were people supposed to operate perfectly all the time ” When people start seeing artists as human beings, they’ll see them for who they are and review their behavior not on the basis of their art but on the basis of their humanity.
It should also be noted that there are works of art that are inspired by the artist’s experience. For example, the themes in the Harry Potter books are so connected with J. K. Rowling’s wicked worldview that it is virtually impossible to tell the two from each other. Since canceling artists based on their worldview would mean the reception to their art will suffer, artists become nervous and unwilling to express themselves, which will kill creativity, eventually leading to the death of edians, singers or painters who should be integrating contemporary issues with their works become bored, and art stops functioning as the social mirror it ought to be.
An artist who makes mistakes still has art with intrinsic (内在的) value, benefiting entire communities or cultures. For example, when Kendrick Lamar launched his album and frequently used the F-slur in one of his songs, there was much-heated discussion. He was entirely mistaken in using the F-slur, but as an artist, he still had a wide-reaching impact on society. Similarly, one can respect the late Michael Jackson because of how he impacted pop music and the presence of black musicians in mainstream media despite his personal weaknesses, opinions, worldviews and associations.
While these artists may engage in their terrible behavior, the art they produce today may serve as an example for others to produce outstanding work in the future. Some would refer to this process as a cycle. Good art should, therefore, be judged due to its value and not the value of the artist.
35.Which would Kevin Hart probably agree with
A. People should perform perfectly all the time.
B. Artists’ shortcomings might be their inspiration.
C. If artists have weaknesses, we’d better cancel them.
D. Artists should be evaluated based on their humanity.
36.Why will “cancel culture” lead to the death of art
A. Artists will be unwilling to create any artwork.
B. Artists will stop concerning themselves with contemporary issues.
C. Artists will lose their desire for expression and creativity.
D. Artworks are unavoidably inspired by artists’ experiences.
37.How can an artist with mistakes benefit others
A. The artist may make some new words popular.
B. The artist’s opinions may spark heated discussion.
C. The artist will benefit entire communities or cultures.
D. The artist’s work may give others ideas for artistic creation.
38.Which would be the best title of the passage
A. Judge Art Due to Its Value
B. Separate the Art From the Artist
C. Regard Artists as Human Beings
D. Stop Criticizing Artists’ Behavior

39.On August 24, 17-year-old Mack Rutherford landed his microlight airplane safely back in Bulgaria, completing a five-month effort to fly around the world. He has now set the record as the youngest person to fly around the world alone.
Mack s flight began in Bulgaria, where he took off on March 23. He was 16 at the time, but celebrated his birthday during his trip around the world.
He flew in a small, two-seater microlight airplane, able to fly at speeds of about 186 mph (300 kph). One of the plane s seats was replaced with an extra gas tank (油箱), which allowed Mack to cover longer distances. The plane also had satellite communications that let Mack stay in touch with people on the ground.
Mack s route took him over Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America. He visited 30 countries in all, covered 33,630 miles.
Though Mack expected his trip to take two to three months, he had to change his ideas. In some places, he had to wait long for getting permission to fly. Other problems required major changes to his flight plan.
Mack also faced lots of other challenges, many of them related to extreme weather. In Sudan, Mack had to deal with sandstorms. He had to fly through heavy rain in India, and ended up with water in his gas tanks.
He said crossing the Pacific Ocean was the most difficult part of the trip. After a 10-hour flight from Japan, he had to land — just as it was getting dark — on an island with no one else on it. He spent the night in the open air.
In spite of all the difficult times, Mack described the trip as “amazing”.
Now Mack has set the record for the youngest person to fly around the world alone, beating 18-year-old English pilot, Travis Ludlow, who set the record last year.
Mack says he hopes his trip will show young people they can make a difference. “You don t need to be 18 to do something special. Just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true,” he said.
(1) How long did it take Mack to fly around the world ___________________________________________
(2) How did Mack stay in touch with people on the ground ___________________________________________
(3) What did many of Mack s other challenges relate to ___________________________________________
(4) Do you think Mack is a role model for young people Why or why not (Give at least two reasons) ___________________________________________
