A
These days, a dependable WiFi signal is far more than a convenience. We count on Internet service to deal with the fun things like streaming movies. But we also depend on it to spread and receive information, making a strong connection important. Unluckily, many people struggle with WiFi problems in their homes. The good news A range of easy methods can help, from repositioning your existing router (路由器) to trying a new router.
If the signal from your Internet service provider seems fine, you’ll need to check your router. Start with an easy fix: Move your router to a better location. Think of it like a light that’s supposed to brighten up a whole room. For the best results, the router should be in an open, central, heightened position, rather than in a closet, behind a TV, or on the floor.
If moving the router doesn’t solve the problem, you might need to try one of the following top-rated single-unit routers.
Model Overall score Price Test results
AX4200 90 $165 ★★★★★
BE6800 88 $300 ★★★★★
XR1000 82 $290 ★★★★
AX5400 80 $155 ★★★★
For a single dead corner of your house, you can try a low-cost WiFi extender, a piece of equipment that connects to electricity and sends the signal deeper into your home. For the best results, place it about halfway between your router and the dead corner. However, this solution has disadvantages. Extenders often create a separate WiFi network that you have to join through your computer, and they can cut the connection speed by half. But the signal should be good enough for basic tasks like web surfing.
1. Where should a router be placed for the best results
A. In a corner. B. Behind a TV.
C. Under the dining table. D. On an open bookshelf.
2. Which model of routers offers the best value for money
A. AX4200. B. BE6800. C. XR1000. D. AX5400.
3. What is the limitation of a WiFi extender
A. Its price is high. B. Its size is large.
C. It slows down the Internet speed. D. It puts users’ personal information at risk.
B
There are tears in the audience’s eyes as Patrick Darling’s song begins to play. It’s a song written for his great-grandfather, whom he never met. But this performance is extra emotional: it’s Darling’s first time on stage with his bandmates since he lost the ability to sing two years ago. Many people hold their breath, deeply touched by his strong love for music and life.
The 32-year-old musician was diagnosed (诊断) with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) — a disease that gradually weakens muscle control, stealing patients’ ability to move, speak, and breathe — at age 29. In his last performance over two years ago, Darling could no longer stand, play instruments, or sing clearly.
Recently, however, AI has given him a second chance. Working with Dr Richard Cave from University College London, Darling used an Eleven Labs AI tool to collect information about his voice from old, low-quality videos. Though the tool usually needs clear sound recordings, the videos were enough to create a synthetic (合成的) version of his singing voice that sounded “human, although not perfect”.
Eleven Labs also allows patients who have lost their voice to use its tool for free through its public welfare program. “Our aim is not to fix physical struggles, ”says program leader Gabi Leibowitz, “but to let people create again and feel like themselves.” For Darling, this meant composing new music with AI.
Darling’s bandmates Nick Cocking and Hari Ma joined him on stage at the Eleven Labs celebration event, playing musical instruments alongside Darling’s singing voice. “To see Darling back to the place where he belongs, sharing his music with us again, makes my heart feel full. I’m endlessly thankful for the way he’s turned this difficult period into something beautiful — and I’m so proud of him for never giving up on his love,” Cocking says.
4. Why is Darling’s recent performance especially moving
A. It is his first time to sing the new song.
B. He hasn’t performed since he got ALS.
C. The song is written for his great-grandfather.
D. He has fully recovered from a serious disease.
5. How did the AI tool help Darling
A. It cured his damaged throat muscles.
B. It equipped him with a synthetic voice.
C. It improved the sound quality of his old recordings.
D. It allowed him to perform live without his bandmates.
6. What do Cocking’s words in the last paragraph mean
A. He admired Darling’s effort to keep creating music.
B. He thought Darling’s voice was not natural enough.
C. He wished to perform more with Darling in the future.
D. He believed the celebration event was a huge success.
7. What message does Darling’s story deliver
A. Old video recordings are always valuable. B. Music is the best cure for physical problems.
C. Technology can help turn loss into hope. D. Partners’ support matters most in hard times.
C
Do you have a “hassler” in your life Whether it is a friend who is too hard to please, a parent who asks too many personal questions, or a brother or sister who often causes problems, such people can make life unhappy and tiring. A new study has found that each extra difficult person in one’s close social circle is connected to a 1.5 percent faster aging rate and adds about nine months to a person’s biological age.
Dr. Byungkyu Lee, one of the researchers, explained that “hasslers” act as long-term stressors. When people often face stress from difficult relationships, their bodies will give out cortisol — something that makes their bodies hurt inside. Though short-term stress is not a threat, lasting stress for months or years causes serious damage to the body, escalating the risk of many chronic (慢性的) diseases and finally shortening life.
The study was carried out among 2,345 people aged between 18 and 104. Researchers asked the participants about people around them and how often these people caused trouble. They used two scientific means to measure biological aging: Grim Age, which shows total aging damage, and Dunedin PACE, which shows how fast a person is aging. Many other influencers were also controlled to make the study more trustworthy.
Interestingly enough, negative relationships between husbands and wives did not produce such harmful effects. Different from other family members, couples live together every day and offer each other emotional comfort, which helps reduce the stress brought by their disagreements.
Since it is not always easy to cut off contact with stressful people, experts suggest that people should enlarge and enrich their social circles by taking part in volunteering or developing shared hobbies. A more positive and varied group of supporters can help reduce the harm caused by long- term stressful relationships.
8. What effect can hasslers have on us
A. Limiting our flexibility. B. Reducing our struggles in life.
C. Speeding up our aging process. D. Helping us build closer connections.
9. What does the underlined word “escalating” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Removing. B. Avoiding. C. Balancing. D. Raising.
10. What does the text say about the study
A. The participants covered a wide range of ages.
B. Researchers considered different types of trouble.
C. Advanced technologies were widely used in the study.
D. The findings went beyond the researchers’ expectations.
11. What is the author’s suggestion on dealing with difficult people
A. Turn to professionals for help. B. Broaden social circles.
C. Pay no attention to their behavior. D. Cut off contact with them.
D
You generally have reasons, good or bad, for your ideas. You can think carefully about those reasons: “Why do I think there’s someone quietly hiding in the room It’s because the floor made a strange sound.” And you can also change your ideas when additional proof requires it: “Having searched the room, I must conclude that it’s just an old house.” This thinking skill is known as belief revision. It’s long been considered a mark that sets us apart from other animals. But a recent study shows that chimps (黑猩猩) can also weigh information and update their belief.
In a series of experiments, researchers in Uganda tested chimps to see how the animals dealt with different sources of information. Each experiment used the food hidden in one of several boxes. The chimps would pick the box they thought was most promising based on an original clue (线索). Then they’d get another clue that sometimes disagreed with the first. Given the chance to update their decision, they almost always chose the box supported by a rational (理智的) choice model and changed their mind when the new information was stronger than what they already knew.
Most impressively, the chimps even considered clues that went against earlier information. If they heard something inside box 1, according to previous experience, they would believe at first that it was an apple. But then the researchers would pull out a stone. Realizing they had been misled, the chimps would immediately choose box 2, even though it had appeared uninteresting a moment before.
This study reminds us that those skills developed from thinking abilities that were already present in the common ancestor we share with chimps. More than 150 years ago, Charles Darwin thought that our mental powers would turn out to be developments of abilities found throughout the animal world. If chimps are truly able to think reasonably, the difference between us and them narrows a bit further.
12. How does the author present the idea in paragraph 1
A. By presenting an expert’s words. B. By giving an example.
C. By putting forward a suggestion. D. By making a comparison.
13. How did the chimps make choices in the experiment
A. They stuck to their first choice. B. They preferred boxes that made sounds.
C. They behaved based on their hunger level. D. They weighed new proof thoughtfully.
14. What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A. Chimps could realize they had got wrong information.
B. Chimps could communicate well with the researchers.
C. Chimps showed no interest in things other than apples.
D. Chimps always failed to find hidden food at their first try.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. The Development of Chimps’ Thinking
B. Ways to Develop Rational Thinking Skills
C. Differences between Humans and Animals
D. A Special Ability Shared by Humans and Chimps

Most of us have experienced failures in some period of our lives, whether in our jobs, personal life or physical and mental health. ___16___ Instead of regarding it as only one single failure, we often connect our whole identity (身份) with that experience. Worrying about it repeatedly will increase our pressure and stop us from recovering quickly.
Actually, every painful experience in life can bring us something valuable. It provides us with a good chance to learn lessons and become more resilient (坚韧的) in later life. Research has already shown the good influence of terrible experiences. For example, they can encourage us to make greater efforts and develop our creativity. They can also improve our ability to understand and care about others’ troubles. ___17___
Then how can we build up our resilience after facing failures There are several practical ways to develop this important quality.
To begin with, we need to accept the reality and treat ourselves with kindness and patience. ___18___ Also, we ought to give up unreasonable perfectionist standards. We must remember that our real value has nothing to do with success or failure.
___19___ We need to change our old ideas and stop seeing failure as a sign of inability. Instead, we should take it as a helpful chance to correct our ways and improve ourselves. In addition, we should act according to our own values and face the fear of failure bravely.
By using these methods, we can become much stronger through each challenge, and this growth exactly confirms a truth: ___20___ Of course, growth is not always smooth; if we still feel it difficult to recover, asking for help from mental health professionals is a good solution.
A. It is wise to avoid bad feelings.
B. Such situations often make us doubt ourselves.
C. Changing our attitude to failure is another necessary step.
D. Besides, we should develop healthy ways to deal with stress.

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。
I lay awake the whole night. The image of the broken chemistry instrument kept flashing before my eyes. Our group’s science fair project, once our proudest work, now sat in a paper box on the desk, its key part broken beyond repair. Each time I closed my eyes, I replayed the moment when I stumbled (绊倒), knocking over the instrument, which broke into pieces. My roommate Jake slept soundly in the next bed, his breathing steady — he was the one who’d spent weeks collecting the data, and I’d lied that the damage was from a “sudden shelf collapse(倒塌)”.
When the morning bell rang, I dragged myself to class, forcing a smile though my stomach felt tight with guilt (愧疚). The hallway was filled with laughter, but inside me, waves of regret rose and fell. Passing by the lab, I took a quick look at the empty counter where our project had sat, like a silent reminder of my lie pressing against my heart.
At lunch, I made up my mind: I would go to our group leader Mia and admit everything. After all, it was our team’s chance at the regional science fair that now hung in the balance, and Jake’s hard work that I’d tried to hide. When I found Mia in the library, she was organizing our remaining materials. She looked up, smiled, and invited me to sit. My hands shook a lot as I pulled out the broken instrument. Taking a deep breath, I found my voice.
I held the broken instrument in my hands and forced the words out, “Mia, I...I broke the project. I lied about the shelf.” The words felt hot in my throat, but once I spoke them, a strange lightness spread through my chest. Mia’s eyes widened in surprise, and then softened. “So you mean it was all your doing ” she asked quietly. I nodded, “Yes, it was my mistake, and I’m ready to take responsibility.”
The library fell silent, every second filled with tension, with Mia’s eyes fixed on me.
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。
“Do you think it right to hide the truth from Jake ” Mia asked.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Several minutes later, I found Jake in the classroom.
