For years, I viewed my grandfather’s vineyard (葡萄园) as a chain tying me to a forgotten past. Every summer
vacation felt like a sentence. The air smelled of damp earth and pesticide, a sharp contrast to the clean, digital scent
of my city life. I counted down the days until my escape, the quiet countryside feeling not peaceful, but empty and
slow.
The change began slightly, with the arrival of a young agronomist (农学家), Miss Li, from the county’s new
“Rural Revitalization” project. She brought not just new organic fertilizers, but a tablet full of colorful soil analysis
charts. My grandfather listened politely but doubtfully. Out of boredom, I started hovering (踌躇) around them. I
was surprised to find myself inspired. I began translating the technical terms on the tablet into our local dialect for
Grandpa, and explaining his decades of wisdom to Miss Li. A tiny spark of curiosity lit up where there was once
only dullness.
One afternoon, a sudden storm threatened the ripening grapes. Panic surged through me — not for myself, but
for the vines we had nurtured. Miss Li showed us satellite weather tracking on her phone, predicting the storm’s
path. For the first time, I didn’t see technology as an enemy of this place, but as its friends. A fierce sense of
protection, mixed with a new-found awe, warmed me from within. I was no longer just an observer; I felt invested.
The autumn harvest was a success of this unlikely partnership. Grandfather placed a heavy hand on my
shoulder. “This harvest,” he said, his voice thick with emotion, “has your mark on it.” A profound pride, deep and
solid, settled in my chest. I finally understood that my growth wasn’t about escaping this land, but about enriching
it. The vineyard was no longer my chain; it had become my canvas. In helping to revive its roots, I had discovered
my own.
24. How did the author initially think of his summer at the vineyard
A. As a valuable social practice. B. As a lesson on agricultural skills.
C. As an isolating and unpleasant duty. D. As a relaxing escape from city noise.
25. What changed the author’s view of the vineyard
A. Miss Li’s suggestion. B. His grandfather’s persuasion.
C. The vineyard harvest. D. His involvement and contribution.
26. What does “canvas” in the last paragraph symbolize
A. The freedom of modern urban life.
B. The transition between tradition and modernity.
C. A place to realize one’s potential and value.
D. A shelter for protecting one’s dream.
27. What is the message conveyed through the author’s journey
A. Family traditions are burdens that block progress.
B. True personal growth is found by escaping one’s roots.
C. Modern technology can save traditional agriculture.
D. One can find belonging by renewing one’s heritage.
C
A new study from UNC School of Medicine researchers, published in Neuron, reveals a unique look at how
junk food negatively affects memory, which leads to risk of cognitive dysfunction (认知功能障碍).
Led by UNC School of Medicine’s Juan Song, PhD, principal investigator, professor of pharmacology, and
Taylor Landry, PhD, first author, Department of Pharmacology, researchers found that a special group of brain
cells in the hippocampus (海马体), called CCK interneurons (神经元), become overly active after eating a high-fat
diet (HFD), due to a damaged ability of the brain to receive glucose (sugar). This overactivity disrupts (干扰) how
the hippocampus processes memory, even after just a few days of high fat diet.
“We knew that diet and metabolism (新陈代谢) could affect brain health, but we didn’t expect to find such a
specific group of brain cells, CCK interneurons in the hippocampus, that were directly disrupted by short-term
high-fat diet exposure,” Song said, who is a member of the UNC Neuroscience Center. “What surprised us most
was how quickly these cells changed their activity in response to reduced glucose availability, and how this shift
alone was enough to damage memory.”
The research also reveals how sensitive memory circuits are to diet, emphasizing the importance of nutrition in
maintaining brain health. “This study highlights how what we eat can rapidly affect brain health and how early
interventions, whether through fasting or medicine, could protect memory and lower the risk of long-term cognitive
problems linked to obesity and metabolic disorders,” said Song. “In the long run, such strategies could help reduce
the growing burden of dementia (痴 呆 ) and Alzheimer’s linked to metabolic disorders, offering more
comprehensive care that addresses the whole person, both body and brain.”
This research is ongoing to further understand how these glucose-sensitive neurons disrupt brain rhythms that
support memory. Researchers plan to explore lifestyle-based interventions, such as dietary patterns that stabilize
brain glucose, to see if they offer protective benefits.
28. What can we infer about CCK interneurons
A. They are sensitive to HFD. B. They are irrelevant to memory.
C. They get overactive on glucose. D. They improve memory function.
29. Which finding went beyond Song’s initial assumptions
A. Diet influences brain health. B. Metabolism links to brain health.
C. HFD damages CCK cells. D. CCK cells exist in the hippocampus.
30. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about
A. The strategies of the research. B. The processes of the research.
C. The purposes of the research. D. The findings of the research.
31. What is the suitable title for the passage
A. Junk Food Damages Memory B. High-fat Diets Cause Obesity
C. Glucose Restores Brain Health D. CCK Neurons Cause Memory Loss
D
Are you a logical, precise thinker or more free-spirited and artistic If you believe you’re the former, you might
be labeled “left-brained”; if the latter, then “right-brained.” The belief that the right brain is for creativity and the
left is for analytical thinking and that our individual characteristics are determined by which half is dominant (主导
的) is widespread in popular psychology. It has even given rise to a small industry of self-help books, personality
tests and training materials that claim to help you improve your brain functions.
However, the idea that people are either left-brained or right-brained is a myth. Although we all obviously have
different personalities and talents, modern brain research hasn’t found any evidence of left or right brain
dominance. One serious problem of this view is its one-sided definition of human abilities. Math, for instance,
which requires logical thought, is generally associated with the left brain, but it is also a profoundly creative
activity. So would a gifted mathematician be a right-brained person or a left-brained person Likewise, artistic
creativity isn’t just uncontrolled emotion. Many of the greatest works of art are products of thorough, precise
thought.
Like many modern myths, the myth of right-brained and left-brained people is rooted in a bit of real science.
Much of our knowledge in this area comes from the 1940s’ study of so-called split brain patients, whose brain
hemispheres (半球) were surgically separated to treat severe diseases. The study showed that the right half was
better at spatial tasks, while the left was better at language and problem-solving. However, the real division of labor
is far more complex than creativity on the right and logic on the left.
Then, why do so many people believe it It may have something to do with our seemingly unlimited desire to
sort ourselves into simple “types”. It works in a similar way to the famous psychological phenomenon known as
the Barnum Effect: when people are offered general personality descriptions that seem specially individualized for
them, such as those in MBTI test, they tend to accept them as meaningful and accurate — particularly if the
descriptions are positives. The myth is popular, in the end, because it gives us a “scientific” way to talk about our
favorite subject — ourselves.
32. What is probably the meaning of the underlined word “myth” in Para. 2
A. A false belief. B. A mysterious idea.
C. An imaginary concept. D. An ancient story.
33. What can be known about a gifted mathematician
A. His left brain is dominant. B. His right brain is dominant.
C. Both brains are equally strong. D. Neither of his brains is strong.
34. Why do so many people believe the left-brain/right-brain theory
A. It satisfies their mental needs. B. It uses the Barnum Effect.
C. It gives an accurate description. D. It offers positive feedback.
35. Which best describes the left-brain/right-brain theory
A. It is scientifically proven. B. It is rather oversimplified.
C. It is highly objective. D. It is entirely groundless.

In today’s digital age, screens are an unavoidable part of daily life. However, excessive screen time can affect
both physical and mental health, especially for students. 36 The good news is that here are five practical tips to
help you do just that.
Set clear screen time limits and stick to them. The first step to mindful screen use is setting specific limits for
different types of screen activities. 37 And set alarms to remind you when the time is up. This small act of
self-discipline will pay off over time.
38 For instance, make your study desk a screen-free zone except for online learning, and set the time from
7 PM to 9 PM as a screen-free period for the whole family. During these times, you can read a physical book, have
a conversation with your family, or do some light exercise.
Replace screen activities with offline alternatives. Many students turn to screens when they feel bored,
stressed, or have free time. Instead of reaching for your phone or tablet, find offline activities that bring you joy and
keep your mind active. 39 Replacing screen time with offline activities not only reduces your device usage but
also enriches your daily life and improves your ability to focus on a single task.
Turn off non-essential notifications(通知). Constant notifications are distractions that break your focus. Every t
ime your phone pings or vibrates(震动), your attention is pulled away from what you are doing. To avoid this, turn
off all non-essential notifications on your devices. 40
A. Create screen-free zones and times at home.
B. This simple change can greatly improve your focus.
C. Keep your study space free from electronic devices.
D. They can help you stay away from digital devices forever.
E. If you want to relax, choose activities like yoga or walking outdoors.
F. It can cause eye tiredness and a significant drop in focus and productivity.
G. Use the screen time tracking features on your phone or computer to monitor your usage.

48 he was there. Watching his warm 49 around, strangely, it felt like we had known each other forever.”
Romano’s grandmother made it to the hospital days later. She offered Lukumu payment, which he again
50 , though he did agree to join them for dinner, a (an) 51 that solidified a friendship lasting more than seven
years.
It was a (an) 52 . “Having him spend his entire day with me — a (an) 53 stranger then — absolutely
changed my life,” Romano smiles. “It’s what drives me to look for ways to help others whenever I can.”
“The world is so 54 right now,” Lukumu says. “What we need to see is the power of human connection,
and how 55 acts of kindness can create deep bonds and change lives.”

New Year paintings, a tradition that 57 (breathe) life into the local cultural heritage.
Visitors walking through the town during the festival are greeted by lively paintings on doors, showcasing
images of gods of fortune, powerful tigers, and interesting folk scenes such as the “mouse wedding”. More than

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。
Jade was a 16-year-old Chinese girl who had lived in the US since she was a toddler. Her parents had always
insisted on celebrating traditional Chinese festivals, no matter how busy their lives were. But Jade had never really
understood why. To her, these festivals meant boring preparations, strange-tasting food, and missing out on fun
plans with her American friends.
Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching. Early that morning, Jade’s mom was up at dawn, bustling around the
kitchen. The scent of osmanthus cake and braised pork filled the house. On the dining table, there were mooncakes
of different flavors. Jade frowned as she glanced at the spread. She had already made plans to have fun with her
friends.
“Mom, I can’t stay for the Mid-Autumn celebration,” Jade said, slinging her backpack over her shoulder. “My
friends are waiting for me.”
Her mom wiped her hands on her apron and sat down beside Jade. Instead of scolding her, Mom took out an
old photo album from the cabinet. Inside were pictures of her and Dad when they first moved to the US — young,
smiling, standing in front of a small apartment with a mooncake in their hands.
“This festival isn’t just about mooncakes and lanterns,” Mom said, her voice gentle. “When I was a little girl
in Guangzhou, every Mid-Autumn, my family would gather on the rooftop. We’d eat mooncakes, drink
chrysanthemum tea, and stare at the full moon. Back then, I thought it was just a fun night. But when I moved here,
far away from my parents, the moon became a link to my hometown. No matter where we are, the same moon
shines over us and our family in China. Celebrating this festival is our way of keeping that connection alive.”
Mom closed the photo album and patted Jade’s hand. “You don’t have to stay if you don’t want to. Go have
fun with your friends.” Jade stared at her mom’s face, seeing the faint glimmer of homesickness in her eyes.
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。
Jade hesitated for a moment, and then dropped off her backpack.
As the moon rose high in the sky, the family sat together on the balcony.

Dear editor,
I’m writing to share my concern about the improper use of our school’s table tennis courts. Recently,
many students arrive extremely early to occupy the courts, even long before the break starts. As a result,
some students who want to exercise have nowhere to play, which causes inconvenience and even
unpleasant arguments.
Sports grounds are public resources for everyone. Therefore, I’d like to make several proposals. First,
we should take turns to play and avoid occupying courts for too long. Second, please don’t save seats or
take up spaces in advance. Most importantly, we should learn to be considerate and put ourselves in
others’ shoes.
Let’s enjoy sports in a polite and orderly way. Only in this way can we create a harmonious campus
for all.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1: Jade hesitated for a moment, and then dropped off her backpack. She walked back to the
dining table and asked, “Mom, which flavor moon cakes did grandma like best ” Her mother’s eyes lit
up with surprise and joy. “Red bean,” she answered softly. “She always said it reminded her of the
sweet taste of home.” Jade nodded and carefully selected a red bean moon cake. They sat at the dining
table, chatting about the stories Mom heard as a kid. Jade listened carefully this time, finally
understanding the warmth behind those tales.(81 words)
Paragraph 2: As the moon rose high in the sky, the family sat together on the balcony. Jade held the
red bean moon cake in her hands and looked up at the full moon. “Mom,” she whispered, “do you think
Grandma can see us ”Her mother smiled. “She sees the same moon, sweetheart. That’s how we’re
connected.” Jade bit into the red bean moon cake. It tasted like family, like heritage, like love that
travels across oceans. At that moment, she realized that the Mid-Autumn Festival was not just about
food or stories — it was about love, family, and the moon that linked them all together. (89 words)

M: True. Both our choices need dedication and lifelong learning. Let’s work hard together for our
dreams!

Hello, my name is Ed Crane. And with me is my service dog. His name is Zern. He is trained to
help me with Epilepsy. Epilepsy is a terrible disease that causes a person to move his body suddenly
and violently. When the human body is going to suffer from epilepsy, it gives off a smell that a regular
person isn’t able to find. But the dog is able to smell it about 15-20 minutes before I can feel it. And
once he smells that, he then starts to run my legs as he was trained, regardless of the time of the day or
anything else. I am trained at that point to immediately lie down. And the reason is to prevent falls or
injuries. Since I’ve had this dog, I’ve had no injuries at all. He can do about 30 other commands. He
has given me independence and the ability to do things I wasn’t able to do before. That’s amazing.
