It was my first conference as a PhD candidate, and the atmosphere should have
thrilled me. It was a chance to showcase my work and build connections. Yet I found
myself hanging by the coffee station, rehearsing potential conversations in my head
but never moving beyond a smile. I wanted to connect but feared seeming awkward, or,
worse, irrelevant. By the end of the day, my business cards were still in my pocket,
第 6页共 32页
untouched. I was relieved it was over—and regretted that I had missed yet another
opportunity to build relationships that could enrich my research and personal growth.
When I started my PhD and saw researchers engaged in multiple collaborations
and publishing frequently, I realized that purposeful and meaningful networking had
helped their accomplishments. If I wanted to succeed in academia, I would need to
actively develop networking habits. It wasn't easy. I went into that conference with the
best of intentions, and still came up empty. My lab mate, on the other hand, walked
away with an invitation from a well-known research team to co-author a working
paper, simply by starting up a casual chat. I stood there, right beside her—and yet, I let
the moment slip by.
That's when it hit me:Networking wasn't about impressing everyone in the room.
It was about speaking up and finding value in even the smallest exchanges. I'd been
waiting for the perfect words, the ideal opening, the “right” moment—but I realized
those moments rarely arrived on their own. The crucial point was to let go of
perfection and instead seek connection.
I dove in. I took every opportunity to attend events. My palms would sweat and
I'd lose my train of thought. My voice would occasionally tremble. But I kept showing
up, determined to push through, hoping eventually it would start to feel natural. And it
did.
Looking back, I see that the real challenge wasn't the act of networking itself, but
letting go of the fear of not doing it “right”. By shifting my mindset from perfection to
connection, I've begun to enjoy the process.

For many, sitting on the couch with popcorn and a movie means shutting your
brain off to relax. But surprisingly, two dozen brain networks are lighting up as you
watch different types of movies, a new study finds. A research paper published in
第 8页共 32页
November in the journal Neuron shows that our brains are actually incredibly active
when we watch movies. Researchers at MIT took advantage of this to create the most
accurate functional brain map to date.
The researchers used a functional MRI (fMRI) dataset from the Human
Connectome Project, which consisted of brain scans from 176 young adults who
watched 60 minutes of short movie clips (片段). An fMRI scan indirectly measures
brain activity by tracking where blood flows to different regions of the brain. If a part
of the brain is active, blood flow to that part increases. After the tracking, they were
able to identify different brain networks needed to process different types of scenes.
Overall, 24 different brain networks were activated during movie watching. The
researchers could then assign functions to each network by associating them with
specific cognitive processes, such as recognizing human faces, watching people
interact with one another, and observing familiar settings.
From this map, the researchers discovered a relationship between “executive
control areas”—parts of the brain involved in planning and decision-making—and
parts of the brain with other functions. When a movie scene was complex and difficult
to follow, the executive control areas were highly active. However, when a scene was
relatively simple, more specialized brain regions including those involved in language
processing dominated.
Such a detailed functional map of the brain could provide insights into how the
organ's networks are organised in both healthy people and those with conditions,
第 9页共 32页
which is good news for doctors. And in theory, understanding how the brain responds
to movies could even help filmmakers create more engaging content.
28.What is the achievement of the researchers at MIT
A.Innovating ways to relax our brains.
B.Publishing a paper about brains in December.
C.Discovering the advantages of watching films.
D.Mapping active areas in brains related to movie scenes.
29.What happened to the viewers watching complicated scenes
A.They took an interest in the language in them.
B.Their executive control areas got activated.
C.They tended to shift to another movie.
D.Their relationship became tense.
30.What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A.To attract test participants.
B.To advocate further studies.
C.To offer filmmakers suggestions.
D.To emphasize the value of the map.
31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Brains get started when you watch movies
B.New brain scanning technology arrives
C.Tips for finding your favourite movies
D.Ways to shut off your brain and relax

The old saying goes that if you give an infinite (无限的) number of monkeys an
infinite amount of time to hit random keys on a typewriter, one of them will eventually
type out the complete works of William Shakespeare, which is known as the Infinite
Monkey Theorem.
However, according to a new paper in the journal Franklin Open, there is not
enough time left in the universe's entire lifespan for all the chimps alive today to write
out the works of the poet. “The long-established result of the Infinite Monkey
Theorem is correct, but misleading,” the University of Technology Sydney researchers
wrote in the paper. “Meaningful text generation during the lifespan of our universe is
almost infeasible.”
The “heat death” theory suggests the universe will end over 100,000 billion years
as it expands and energy equally spreads, leaving no usable energy. Currently at 13.8
billion years old, we have a vast time ahead. Yet, even this may not be enough for
random monkeys to copy Shakespeare's works, according to new research.
In the study, the researchers calculated how likely it would be for a given string
of characters to be typed by one of a finite number of monkeys. They assumed that the
keyboard contained 30 keys of English characters and punctuation marks, a finite
number of 200, 000 monkeys—based on the current population of chimpanzee—and a
typing rate of one key per monkey per second for the rest of the universe's lifetime.
They discovered that, using these assumptions, it is extremely unlikely that all words
of Shakespeare's works will be typed before the heat death of the universe. In fact,
第 11页共 32页
there is only a 5 percent chance that one of the monkeys would even get around to
typing the single word “bananas” within its own lifetime.
“This finding places the theorem among other probability puzzles and paradoxes
(悖论)—such as the St Petersburg paradox, Zeno's paradox, and the Ross-Littlewood
paradox—where using the idea of infinite resources gives the results that don't match
up with what we get when we consider the limitation of our universe,” said Woodcock,
a professor at the University of Technology Sydney.
32.What is the Infinite Monkey Theorem about
A.A cultural trend. B.A probability principle.
C.A literature assumption. D.A psychology phenomenon.
33.What does the underlined word “infeasible” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Impossible. B.Deep-rooted.
C.Valueless. D.Far-reaching.
34.What is the basis of the research
A.Power of randomness.
B.Infinite resources and time.
C.Realistic estimates of time and resources.
D.Faith in Shakespeare's works' complexity.
35.What is Woodcock's attitude toward the finding of the study
A.Doubtful. B.Dismissive.
C.Ambiguous. D.Positive.

If there's one thing colleges know, it's where the jobs are. Here are some areas to
study. 36
The first one is electricians. Electricians are in short supply, even without
considering the increase in electricians needed to electrify the economy. 37
Putting up, say, an apartment building can require up to 40. The field is so full of
opportunity that some colleges have started teaching evening classes to graduate more
electrician students per year. 38 Students can try different trades, like the
electrical one, and move directly from the program to an apprenticeship (学徒工作).
Artificial intelligence (AI) is another hot field. Twenty years ago, there were few
opportunities to explore a career in artificial intelligence. 39 Between 2015 and
2019, there was a 270 per cent increase in the number of businesses implementing AI
processes worldwide. The technology's capabilities are wide-ranging. It can help
teachers streamline their work by updating courses, recommending content and
suggesting ways to bridge knowledge gaps for students. In the business world, AI has
transformed supply chain management.
40 Just a few years ago, imagining e-sports (or electronic sports) as a proper
college program was almost unthinkable. Video games were seen as a vice, not a job.
Fast forward to 2025: Quite a few colleges have not only launched e-sports
management programs but even built e-sports arenas to take advantage of the lively
industry. Globally, the video game industry is bigger than the movie and music
第 13页共 32页
industries combined. Revenue from e-sports events is predicted to grow to more
than$1.8 billion globally by 2026.
A.Others are offering free exploration programs.
B.Building almost any home requires an electrician.
C.However, the technology has quickly advanced in the last decade.
D.They practically guarantee a hire and help create a better future too.
E.Game shows become popular thanks to new management programs.
F.E-sports management is also a rapidly growing field with great opportunities.
G.Some colleges, like Centennial College, offer pathways to promising careers.

I was a 19-year-old girl. On a cold autumn morning, I was standing on a

lucky to find my 42 to the women's rugby club on my college campus and began
my first practice. Although I was not an athlete, I was 43 as I was training hard

whole team.” Hearing those, she gave me a 50 and priceless gift, saying, “Amy, it's
up to you.”
Looking back, it was a defining 51 —when I started placing more importance
on what I enjoyed and wanted, as opposed to what others 52 or thought of me. I
felt like I could suddenly move mountains.
Later on, I traveled around to play matches and those 53 took me all over the
world and I made friends in rugby. After 16 years, I started a family and stopped
playing, but I remained a 54 . So far, I've made it only to the sidelines, cheering on

The performance of Chinese test-takers in the Test of English as a Foreign
Language (TOEFL) has improved in recent years, 56 the average score reaching
90 in 2022, 57 (compare) to the global average of 88 in the same year, according
to the Educational Testing Service (ETS). Omar Chihane, General Manager of TOEFL,
noted that as China 58 (engage) in global economic exchanges and international
collaboration, English is becoming increasingly essential.
In 2023, TOEFL announced enhancements, including shortening the test duration
from three hours to less than two hours and 59 (introduce) a new “writing for an
academic 60 (discuss)”task. Rohit Sharma, Senior Vice-President of ETS's
Global Higher Education and Workskills, said that the high-quality assessments
provided by ETS will extend from the education sector, such as TOEFL and GRE tests,
to employment and the workplace.“There's evidence 61 many students, after
receiving an international education and perhaps working for a few years, are
returning to their home countries to contribute to their local economies,” he said.
Sharma added that the demand gap between talent and employers is challenging
both in China and around the world.“If you talk to employers, they will say they
cannot find people. And if you talk to students, they will say they cannot find jobs,” he
said. He emphasized the need for employers 62 (identify) talent with the skills

they need, while students should be taught how to articulate the 63 (strength) they
have acquired both inside and outside the classroom.“We believe we can play 64
role in helping bridge that gap through our 65 (invent) products and high-quality
assessments,” Sharma said.

A Daughter's Gift
Sophie was a kind and thoughtful little girl who loved her mom very much. They
lived in a house on a quiet street, where they spent their days together, baking cookies,
reading stories, and playing in the garden. Sophie's mom, Mrs Brown, worked hard to
provide for their small family, and Sophie wanted to do something special for her
mom's upcoming birthday.
One day, while walking home from school, Sophie passed by a small shop with
beautiful necklaces displayed in the window. She stopped and gazed at a delicate
necklace with a heart-shaped pendant (吊坠). It was perfect for her mom!Sophie knew
how much her mom loved jewelry but rarely bought anything for herself. Sophie
decided then and there that she would save up to buy the necklace as a birthday gift.
Sophie didn't have much money, but she was determined. She began doing extra
chores around the house, helping her neighbors with gardening, and even saving her
weekly allowance. Every time she earned a little, she carefully placed the money in a
small jar hidden under her bed. As the days passed, the jar slowly filled up, but the
necklace was expensive, and Sophie wasn't sure if she would have enough by the time
her mom's birthday arrived.
Despite the challenge, Sophie never gave up. She worked hard and stayed
focused on her goal. Each night before bed, she would count the money in the jar,
adding up the coins and bills, hoping she was getting closer to her goal. Her mom
第 18页共 32页
noticed that Sophie was spending more time helping around the house and asked,
“Why are you doing so many chores, Sophie ”
Sophie just smiled and said, “I want to help out more, Mom. You do so much for
us.”
Finally, the day before her mom's birthday arrived. Sophie counted her money
one last time and realized she had just enough to buy the necklace. She felt a rush of
excitement. The next morning, she went straight to the shop and purchased the
necklace, carefully wrapping it in a small box with a ribbon.

studies in Paris, France.
In Christie's first book, The Mysterious Affair at Styles (1920), she introduced one
of her two best-known detectives, Hercule Poirot. Poirot is a committed spokesman for
an unemotional approach to solving mysteries. Poirot's companion, Captain Hastings
is a retired military man who is too trusting and often foolish. The year 1926 was an
important one for Christie. It saw the publication of her first hugely successful novel,
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, in which the narrator is the murderer. It was also a year
of personal tragedy. Christie's mother died in 1926. Christie wrote several works in
addition to her fiction, including seventeen well-liked plays. The Mousetrap opened in
London in 1952 and was a huge success, playing there for over thirty years. In 1971
Christie was named a Dame Commander of the British Empire.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I'm writing to share with you a recent trip to the countryside with my family. We
visited a small village surrounded by beautiful fields and green hills. We enjoyed fresh
air, picked fruits, and tasted delicious local food.
The peaceful environment was a nice break from the city's hustle and bustle. It
was a wonderful experience, allowing us to relax and get close to nature.
I hope to visit more such places in the future.

That evening, after dinner, Sophie handed the box to her mom. “Happy birthday,
Mom!” she said, her eyes shining with excitement. Mrs Brown was surprised and
touched. “Oh, Sophie, you didn't have to get me anything,” she said, opening the box.
When she saw the necklace inside, her eyes filled with tears. “This is beautiful!How
did you afford it ” Sophie smiled proudly and told her mom how she had saved every
penny for the necklace. “I wanted to give you something special because you always
take care of me and work so hard. You deserve it, Mom.”
Mrs Brown hugged Sophie tightly, her heart full of love and pride. “Thank you,
Sophie. This is the most beautiful gift I've ever received. I will cherish it forever, just
like I cherish you.” Sophie beamed with happiness, knowing that her hard work and
love had made her mom's birthday special. From that day on, Mrs Brown wore the
necklace every day. The gift was more than just a piece of jewelry—it was a symbol
of the love and care that connected them.
