Ruth Minhall’s pathway into education was unconventional. Owing to her ADHD and dyslexia (诵读困难), she was frequently misunderstood and underestimated. Teachers criticized her unusual way of thinking, and her confidence as a student declined. However, rather than giving up, Ruth developed strategies to succeed, such as reading her work aloud to improve syntax (句法) and flow, which contributed to her exam success.
These experiences convinced her that setbacks can become stepping stones to growth. That belief continues to guide her leadership today and inspires the philosophy behind Tuition Extra: Learning should be adaptable, solution-focused, and centered on individual strengths.
As an adult, Ruth once worked internationally as a singer and recording artist, pursued journalism, and eventually became a teacher at Borden Grammar School in Sittingbourne. It was in the classroom that she discovered her capacity to connect with students at risk of exclusion or disengagement.
Although Ruth enjoyed teaching, she realized traditional routes within education weren’t economically sustainable for her as a single mother. So she created a part-time tutoring business that would later grow into Tuition Extra. Rapidly, parents and schools recognized Ruth’s unique solution-focused approach, which prioritized addressing unmet needs rather than punishing disruptive behavior. The impact wasn’t limited to academic achievement. Students also gained confidence, resilience and a renewed sense of belonging.
In 2013, Ruth decided to dedicate herself fully to the business. Today, Tuition Extra is a dynamic organization combining education with therapy and career opportunities. It supports children and young adults aged 4 — 25 who might otherwise struggle to succeed in mainstream education.
Ruth describes failure not as weakness but as growth. Her journey, from a struggling student to a successful teacher, is a testament to resilience. Her students are encouraged to see mistakes as opportunities for learning and renewal. Tuition Extra stands as proof that every child, regardless of their challenges, has the potential to succeed when education is tailored with sympathy and creativity.
4. What can be known about Ruth’s early school years?
A. They led her to explore several careers.
B. They were shaped by various challenges.
C. They were marked by regular celebrations.
D. They exposed her to an inspiring campus culture.
5. What primarily motivated Ruth to start her tutoring business?
A. Her diverse career backgrounds.
B. Her constant passion for education.
C. A lifelong dream to run a business.
D. Financial need to support her family.
6. What kind of students does Tuition Extra mainly aim to help?
A. Those seeking fast exam success. B. Those talented in creative arts.
C. Those struggling in regular schools. D. Those affected by mental disorders.
7. What is Ruth’s educational philosophy?
A. Teachers must follow effective traditional methods.
B. Education should be tailored to personal strengths.
C. Teachers must have sympathy and creativity.
D. Education should prioritize academic achievement.

In recent years, a meaningful cultural shift has begun to take hold across the United States, with more individuals and families opting for the comforts of home over the noisy social activities. The phenomenon of becoming a nation of homebodies, characterized by a growing preference for domesticity, home entertainment, and remote work, has transformed the fabric of American society.
One major driver of this change is the widespread adoption of work-from-home policies. This trend towards homebody culture is reflected in changes in consumer behavior. Retail (零售) data shows a surge in sales for home improvement projects, cooking appliances, and entertainment systems. As people continue to adapt their living spaces to their preferences, there is a corresponding rise in interest in interior design, DIY projects, and lasting living. The concept of home has changed from being merely a shelter to an optimized surroundings for happiness and well-being.
The shift towards homebody culture is influencing urban design in profound ways, prompting architects and planners to rethink the functionality and aesthetics (美学) of our living environments. As more individuals prioritize comfort and convenience, cities are adapting by creating spaces that meet the needs of remote work, personal leisure, and communal gatherings within residential zones. This evolving landscape will emphasize the importance of mixed-use developments, where houses, green spaces, and local businesses coexist harmoniously.
Future urban design is likely to embrace sustainability and adaptability, reflecting the changing needs of communities. Key trends are like these: More homes will feature dedicated office spaces to accommodate the growing remote workforce; urban designs will incorporate smart technologies to create efficient and responsive environments tailored to residents’ lifestyles; enhanced pedestrian pathways and accessible services will make local living more appealing, reducing the reliance on cars.
As we embrace this new era of homebodies, we need to ensure that the comforts of home do not come at the expense of a vibrant, interconnected community. Finding a balance between technological convenience and meaningful human connection will be essential for individuals and society alike.
8. What does the author intend to show in paragraph 1?
A. The rise of a stay-at-home lifestyle.
B. An increase in home entertainment.
C. Changes in the structure of families.
D. The steep decline in social activities.
9. What do the underlined words “a surge” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. A steady flow. B. A slight change.
C. A sharp increase. D. A sudden disappearance.
10. What direction is future urban design likely to take?
A. To separate residential and business areas.
B. To focus more on architectural aesthetics.
C. To prioritize the construction of larger offices.
D. To combine homes and local services in one area.
11. What is the author’s worry about the homebody trend?
A. Low work efficiency. B. Loss of lively community ties.
C. No more urban growth. D. High home improvement costs.
D
Humans are not well suited to live in modern cities, and this may harm our health. This is the claim of scientists from Loughborough University in England and the University of Zurich in Switzerland. They say rapid industrial change has transformed our lives so much that our bodies cannot keep up.
Living in crowded, polluted cities and being disconnected from nature may damage our key biological functions. This includes effects on having children and on our immune system, leading to allergies (过敏). It may also hurt thinking skills and reduce physical strength and endurance.
With fewer people having children globally and continuous diseases rising, and with most people expected to live in cities by 2050, these findings are important. “For most of human history, our biology was shaped by natural environments. But modern life has changed the world faster than our bodies can adapt,” said Danny Longman, a researcher at Loughborough University. Evidence of poorer body function in modern settings led them to put forward the “Environmental Mismatch Hypothesis (假设)”, which suggests our nature-adapted biology does not fit well with modern city life.
Longman explained that their research combined lab studies, field studies, and population data. They looked at the short-term effects of natural versus city environments on our bodies. They did not collect new data but put together existing evidence from different fields to understand how modern life affects human biology.
Their work shows both short-and long-term effects. “Daily constant noise, crowds, traffic, too much information from digital devices, and little time in natural spaces keep our stress system active. This increases worry, harms sleep, and makes focusing difficult. Over time, it contributes to mental health problems, heart issues, poorer thinking, immune problems, and poor reproductive health,” Longman said.
“We also see evidence that polluted and crowded places can lower physical performance. A daily trip through noisy, polluted streets is not just unpleasant — these daily stresses build up and have real effects on our bodies,” he added. Longman noted that with current population growth, a return to natural living is not likely soon. “City life is our future. The challenge is to design cities that work with human biology, not against it,” he said.
12. What harm may city life cause according to paragraph 2?
A. Shortening life expectancy. B. Reducing social connections.
C. Damaging natural environment. D. Weakening body and mind functions.
13. How did the researchers conduct their study?
A. By doing many new lab experiments. B. By surveying city planning worldwide.
C. By analyzing existing research data. D. By collecting personal records.
14. What is the author’s view on the future of city life?
A. People should live closer to nature.
B. Cities must be redesigned for human biology.
C. Technological advances will solve serious problems.
D. Population growth will make cities naturally healthier.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A. To criticize modern city planning.
B. To report on a new medical discovery.
C. To promote a healthier personal lifestyle.
D. To explain a scientific viewpoint on urban living.

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。
Jack wiped his hands on his workwear, the warm smell of fresh bread filling his small shop. The morning rush was over. He was about to take a short break when a large shadow fell across the shop window. He looked up and froze. A big, thin dog had its front paws on the counter, its nose pressing against the pile of bread to be sold. Before Jack could move or speak, the dog grabbed a large loaf of bread with its big mouth.
“Hey!” Jack shouted, rushing from behind the counter. The dog pulled back its front paws, the bread held in its jaws, and ran down the quiet street. Anger rose in Jack’s chest. That was his best and expensive bread! He grabbed a broom (扫帚) handle near the door and ran out after the “thief”.
The dog ran fast, but Jack kept it in sight. It turned into a narrow backstreet between two old buildings. Jack followed, completely out of breath. He entered the backstreet and stopped. The big dog was sitting on the ground, panting heavily, beside a large cardboard box. Its mouth was empty. “Ah,” Jack thought, “the bread must be in the box.” His grip tightened on the broom handle. This “thief” needed to learn a lesson.
He walked slowly toward the dog, his shoes making soft sounds on the stones of the backstreet. The dog turned its head and saw him. It was clearly tired, too tired to move a step. It just watched him, its body low to the ground. Jack raised the broom handle, ready to give it a sudden blow. Just then, a soft, high sound came from the box. Jack’s arm stopped in the air. He took a careful step forward and looked into the box. Inside, a tiny puppy (小狗) was happily eating pieces of the “stolen” bread, its little tail wagging wildly. The big dog, the mother, watched her baby, and then looked back at Jack with tired eyes.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Jack slowly lowered the broom handle to the ground.

Dear Smith,
Greetings from our school’s English Club! I’m Li Hua, the club leader. Since our schools have built a friendly partnership, it would be wonderful to organize an online English exchange, which could be a great chance for us to share experiences and learn together.
I suggest we focus on topics like learning English through songs, where we can share favorite resources and tips, as well as talking about ways to overcome speaking anxiety.
I’d be happy to hear your ideas and arrange a suitable time if you’re interested. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【答案】One possible version:
Jack slowly lowered the broom handle to the ground. He bent down, keeping his movements gentle so he wouldn’t scare the mother dog, who was watching him closely. Seeing the bony mother and the eager puppy, his anger melted away, replaced by understanding. “You were just hungry, weren’t you?” he said softly, more to himself. He reached out a hand slowly, letting the mother dog smell it. She gave a small, tired wag of her tail. Jack knew a light tap wouldn’t solve anything. These animals needed help.
He turned and walked quickly back toward his shop. His mind was now set on a new plan. He returned with a paper bag containing two fresh loaves and a bowl filled with water from his sink. Placing them carefully near the box, he stepped back. The mother dog approached cautiously, drank deeply, and then began to share the food with her puppy. Every few days after that, Jack would leave food and fresh water near the box.
