This summer, my fellow musicians and I listened to the slow movement of Beethoven’s String Quartet. From the first notes of this profound music, I was in tears. What I had experienced was complete immersion (沉浸) in music. Most of life’s great moments are like this. We give our full attention to one thing and wonder at its beauty. Past disappointments and future worries disappear.
But in today’s world, such moments are increasingly hard to come by. Our digital existence aims to distract our attention, flooding us with more information in less time than the human mind was designed to absorb. Music provides a unique escape from this constant flood of information. A great performance of music both takes us out of our heads and puts us in touch with our deepest selves. That’s the magic of music.
That phrase — “the magic of music” — is used frequently by the marketing teams of musical organizations. But often, their efforts to support that music reflect different priorities. Some teams have encouraged audiences to live-tweet performances. If you watch a concert on a livestream, you are often invited to chat with other viewers. Engagement first; listening second. Meanwhile, multidisciplinary and multimedia projects are increasingly in fashion. The message from programmers is clear: Audiences supposedly don’t want to be immersed in the music. They are the customers, and the customer is always right.
This is not a black-and-white issue. An art form should evolve, and some mixed-media projects are excellent. But if we lose our capacity to focus deeply on music, we lose one of the greatest gifts we are granted as human beings. When promotion focuses only on supply and demand, it creates a vicious cycle: The less we are able to pay attention, the less we are asked to. pay attention, which only degrades our attention further.
While marketing teams talk about magic, classical music organizations try hard to present themselves as relevant. This is understandable. No one wants to be irrelevant. Yet true relevance isn’t just keeping up with the times by driving us deeper into our devices. It comes from embracing music’s power to immerse us in a world of possibility and wonder.
24. What does the underlined phrase “such moments” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Listening to Beethoven’s music. B. Being totally lost in one thing.
C. Crying over profound music. D. Being flooded with information.
25. What do some musical marketing teams emphasize
A. Music’s power. B. Live performances.
C. Customers’ rights. D. Audience interaction.
26. What does the author imply in paragraph 4
A. Art forms are undergoing diverse changes.
B. Customers’ demands should be a top priority.
C. Poor marketing strategies worsen people’s concentration.
D. Human beings are losing their ability to appreciate music.
27. What does the author mainly want to tell us
A. Digital devices disturb full concentration.
B. The magic of music deserves our full attention.
C. Music organizations advocate digital promotion.
D. Mixed-media projects ruin listening experiences.

While “chaos gardening” became a viral social media trend in 2023, its core philosophy of letting nature lead has come to stay — it’s a return to time-honored ecological gardening principles, reimagined for modern homeowners. Unlike strictly planned, pesticide-reliant gardens, this approach rejects inflexible design, instead sowing a diverse mix of seeds and embracing the unpredictability of natural growth.
Far from mere “messy gardening”, the practice is rooted in ecological science: a diverse plant community creates layered habitats that support pollinators (授粉者), soil microbes, and native wildlife. As climate anxiety and biodiversity loss grow, chaos gardening has emerged as an accessible solution for ordinary people to contribute to ecosystem restoration. It eliminates the need for artificial chemicals, reduces water pollution, and captures carbon. As Dr. Rebecca Hartman, an ecologist at Washington University, puts it, “What looks like randomness to the untrained eye is actually a complicated web of ecological relationships. Chaos gardening taps into that complexity instead of fighting it.”
Critics often dismiss it as unmanaged neglect (忽视), but successful chaos gardening requires intentionality, not inaction. The key lies in selecting native, locally adapted seed mixes: non-native invasive species can outcompete native plants, disturbing local ecosystems, while carefully chosen native plants provide sustained food and shelter for local pollinators. Results are naturally variable — some gardens bloom into lively wildflower fields, others evolve into food-producing landscapes, making each space a unique ecological experiment. Landscape designer Marcus Chen, who has applied chaos gardening principles to over fifty residential projects, notes, “People are surprised when I tell them that a ‘wild’ garden often takes more thoughtful planning than a traditional one. You’re not abandoning care — you’re redirecting it toward the right plant choices and then stepping back.”
For beginners, it offers a low-pressure entry to gardening, free from the pressure of perfection. It’s more than a gardening style; it’s a mindset shift, inviting people to observe, adapt, and coexist with nature, rather than control it. In an era of environmental crisis, chaos gardening turns small, personal outdoor spaces into agents of ecological hope.
28. How does the author present the core idea of chaos gardening in the first paragraph
A. By listing its benefits. B. By introducing its origin.
C. By showing its popularity. D. By describing its practices.
29. What does Dr. Hartman say about chaos gardening
A. It restores the ecological balance. B. It upsets ecological relationships.
C. It employs ecological networks. D. It reduces ecological complexity.
30. Why does the author quote Marcus Chen
A. To highlight intentional efforts. B. To support critics’ opinions.
C. To advise growing native seeds. D. To show the benefits of wild gardens.
31. What can be the suitable title for the text
A. Messy Ways, Clear Results B. Chaos Planted, Hope Grown
C. Wild Looks, Wise Planning D. Nature Leading, Diversity Lost
D
Every time you crowd into a packed plane, you might wonder if you will catch something from the person sitting next to you — or a few rows away. You’re not alone: researchers share that curiosity.
Erica, associate professor at Northwestern University, and her colleagues tried to find out by testing face masks worn by passengers on flights to document what kinds of bugs they trapped. The team was also interested in the air circulating in hospitals and tested face masks worn by hospital staff. They collected 53 masks for analysis.
They detected 407 total microbial (微生物) species from both the plane and hospital settings, with similar populations of bugs from each. The vast majority of these came from skin and are harmless, says Erica. She says most airborne microbes come from our skin, as we shed (使掉落) them everywhere we go.
The kits that the team used were designed to collect DNA, so that meant the researchers primarily captured bacteria — not viruses, many of which have RNA as their genetic base (like influenza). Erica says that viruses likely make up a smaller proportion of microbes in the air than bacteria, since people shed more skin bacteria than virus particles. She notes that viruses tend to heavily depend on the right habitat in order to thrive, and once outside the body and away from cells that they can infect, they can become slightly less pernicious.
The results of the study highlight the importance of developing better ways to monitor the air for disease-causing pathogens (病原体), including viruses, using sensing systems that could provide more real-time readings. “Imagine something like a gas alarm that, depending on the levels of microbes present, could automatically increase air-exchange rates or alert people to put on masks,” says Erica.
Erica hopes people will remember that the air — even in tight places like a plane or hospital — may not be as full of disease-causing bacteria as we think. Still, if you are worried about getting sick, face masks are an effective way to protect yourself from pathogens, as well as protecting you from spreading bacteria to others if you are ill.
32. Why did Erica and her colleagues carry out the study
A. To compare bugs in different settings.
B. To design a new air conditioning system.
C. To explore infection risks in specific places.
D. To prove that using face masks is ineffective.
33. How did the team collect data for their research
A. By examining DNA from skin samples.
B. By tracking viruses spread among patients.
C. By checking air quality inside the airplanes.
D. By testing face masks from different groups.
34. What does the underlined word “pernicious” most probably mean in paragraph 4
A. Rare. B. Harmful. C. Visible. D. Stable.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Viruses are the main microbes in the air.
B. Real-time air monitoring is now widely used.
C. Shed skin spreads more bacteria than viruses.
D. People needn’t overreact to the air in tight spaces.

Do you treat new attempts like jumping into a cold pool You stand there for ages, thinking about it, planning for it, making emotional speeches about it, yet you still don’t jump in. 36 This way of thinking means you stop waiting for the perfect time, or the perfect idea or the perfect version of yourself. You simply start — even if your work is a little messy.
Many people think perfectionism is a good thing. It sounds impressive, and it makes you seem serious and thoughtful. But sometimes perfectionism is just fear wearing glasses and carrying a clipboard, telling you, “Don’t begin until everything is just right.” 37
This is true in almost every part of life. Maybe you want to be a videographer, writer, or musician — or perhaps you just want to speak in public without feeling like your soul has left your body. 38 First attempts rarely are. The good news is that action teaches faster than overthinking. When you actually do something, you get feedback. 39 That’s how we grow: not by waiting until we’re “naturally good,” but by being brave enough to be a little bad first.
40 It involves doing your best, sending it out, and learning from the result. We’re all works in progress. So go ahead. Start before you feel ready because, in real life, done beats perfect almost every time. Jump in. The water is just fine.
A. You see what works and what doesn’t.
B. Taking action anyway doesn’t mean being careless.
C. But you’re worried that your work won’t be remarkable.
D. Finishing and presenting something slightly messy is fine.
E. A perfect start is surely better than completed imperfect effort.
F. The problem is that nothing becomes excellent without a beginning.
G. That’s where the mindset of taking action anyway becomes important.

In the middle of 2017, overwhelmed by the stresses of living and working in London, Jessica Robson began returning every weekend to her parents’ home in East Sussex, where her mum would 41 her out for Sunday runs. “I found I was 42 far more when running with my mum than I was in my therapy (治疗) sessions in London,” she recalls.

Robson stresses she is neither a therapist nor a running 52 .
In 2018, Jennie Oliver 53 Run Talk Run on Instagram and asked Robson if she could set up a second group in Peterborough. It has carried on 54 that way. Run Talk Run now includes 150 volunteer-led groups worldwide. “It’s so 55 to watch others speak freely and become more confident,” Robson says.

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。
Elara had long been well-known for her sympathy and willingness to reach out to the marginalized (边缘群体). On many weekends, she devoted her spare time to a local charity, assisting with the distribution of daily supplies and providing company to those living rough.
One bitterly cold evening in late January, a sharp wind swept through the streets. Passersby buried their chins in their scarves and hurried along, desperate to escape the bitter cold. As she passed an abandoned alley (小巷), Elara caught sight of a thin figure in the corner. It was a middle-aged woman, wrapped in a ragged blanket that hardly protected her from the freezing wind. Her cheeks were flushed with cold, and beside her lay only a few worn belongings. It was obvious that she had been homeless for a long time.
A surge of pity overwhelmed Elara. She thought of her warm home, the steaming meals prepared by her family, and the warm bed she had always taken for granted. In sharp contrast, this stranger had none of these comforts. “Are you okay ” she approached gently and asked. The woman lifted her head, her eyes clouded with weariness. “Just trying to get through the night,” she whispered. “And I’ve been wandering the streets for months, going hungry and struggling to survive the cold nights.”
Elara’s heart ached. “Wait here,” she said. She rushed to a nearby shop and used her savings to buy a cup of hot soup, a warm bread roll and a thick pair of gloves. Handing them over, she said, “This should warm you up a bit — take your time, it’s all yours.” The woman’s eyes watered with tears, her lower lip trembling slightly as she took the items. “Thank you, dear — you have no idea how much this means,” she murmured, her voice thick with emotion.
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。
But to Elara’s surprise, the woman did not rush to eat or drink. Witnessing the woman’s selflessness, Elara decided to do more.
