A
Rather than travel to major hubs like Miami or Boston, you can funnel your time and energy into heading a bit further off the beaten path without busting the bank.
Fort Myers, Florida
Fort Myers is an idyllic location perfect for beachy escapes. Fort Myers’ coasts are lined with white-sand beaches, unexplored inlets, and vast wildlife preserves. Because of its gorgeous coastal views, Fort Myers has all the tourist infrastructure you’ll need — including budget options for dining, lodging, and touring that feel effortlessly classy.
Greenville, South Carolina
Greenville is a fantastic alternative to anyone a little burnt out by Asheville’s growing crowds and rising prices. In Greenville, you’ll get to experience the beauty of the Appalachians along with the same independent and spirited arts community. In fact, you have Greenville’s modest pricing to thank for its flourishing art scene — and even a growing culinary scene. Again, you also get the best of Mother Nature.
Cape May, New Jersey
Cape May offers an atmosphere that calls back to the glory days of beachside summertime. The historic downtown Cape May area is home to gorgeous little bed and breakfasts, along with boutique shops and mom-and-pop eateries. Think of it like a more refined and affordable version of Atlantic City.
Bozeman, Montana
Most visitors are focused on winter sports and cool summers — but prices are steep in places like Jackson Hole. That’s not quite the case in Bozeman. Thanks to its status as a college town, there’s always a deal to be found. At the same time, you have access to all those upscale outdoor activities, from fishing to skiing to soaking in hot springs.
1. Where can you experience a strong artistic atmosphere
A. Fort Myers, Florida.
B. Greenville, South Carolina.
C. Cape May, New Jersey.
D. Bozeman, Montana.
2. What do Fort Myers and Cape May have in common

B. Sizable wildlife shelters.
C. Breathtaking seashore views.
D. Luxurious outdoor activities.

Renee Cafaro has wanted to work in fashion for as long as she can remember. But “as I became a teenager,” she says, “it was made clear to me by a lot of people in my life — and they might’ve been right back in the heroin-chic (骨感时尚风) 1990s — that there was kind of no place for the fat girl in fashion.”
Cafaro’s conclusion: “I can’t be the fashionable girl, but I can be the smart girl.” So she went to Stanford, then put her political science education to use working on the 2004 congressional campaign.
Still, the problem remained. Cafaro loved fashion, and it didn’t love her back. In 2008, she was offered a position as a member of the senior advisers unit. Cafaro had to suit up. So she went to a local Target to cobble together (仓促拼凑) cardigans and slacks, managing to find some formal wear. “I cried in the dressing room,” she says. Cafaro also found herself frustrated while on vacation in Europe in 2009, struggling with strapless bras that filled half her suitcase.
Over the next five years, she started familiarizing herself with her creative side again, balancing her campaign work with fashion and travel writing. In 2016, Cafaro became the U. S. editor of plus-size-focused Slink magazine. When it paused publication during the pandemic, she finally had time to design that dress she’d dreamed up.
The Game Changer — with patented bra — now retails for $ 199 to $ 225 at RCA Public Label, one of two fashion brands Cafaro has founded in the past five years. Cafaro’s designs have been featured on the runways at Paris, London, and New York fashion weeks, and she dressed Melanie Miller, a member of the Oscar-winning producing team.
She enjoys the rare opportunity to put on her own designs. “When the industry has only offered me clothes made of cheap plastics and rough fabrics for my whole life, it is really nice to feel special, feel expensive, and invest in yourself.”
4. What initially discouraged Cafaro from pursuing a career in fashion
A. She was admitted to her dream university.
B. She took a keen interest in political science.
C. She was faced with pressure from the mainstream.
D. She lacked professional training in fashion design.
5. Why did Cafaro get involved in the fashion industry
A. Because of her frustration with the political campaign work.
B. Because of her determination to rise to fame in fashion design.
C. Because of her success in becoming an editor of a magazine.
D. Because of her dissatisfaction with limited clothing options.
6. What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The commercial challenges.
B. The business achievements.
C. The brand management.
D. The customer feedback.
7. Which of the following best describes Renee Cafaro
A. Talented and idealistic.
B. Disciplined and optimistic.
C. Empathetic and reflective.
D. Unconventional and creative.
C
In The Incredibles, Violet Parr is a lot like other teenagers. She has embarrassing parents, a troublesome little brother and a crush so intense it makes her want to disappear. But unlike other teens, Violet can actually vanish when the boy she likes looks her way.
Many animals, too, find it helpful to hide from predators (捕食者) in plain sight. The secret to invisibility is all about light. “The way we see things is when light is reflected back off of an object onto our eyes,” says Kate Feller, who studies vision and behavior at Union College in Schenectady, N. Y. The more light that can pass through something undisturbed, the harder it is to see that thing.
Light that hits our bodies usually gets absorbed or bounced around. But animals with nearly invisible body parts have figured out tricks to get around this. A lot of animals get their colors from molecules called pigments (色素). These compounds appear different colors depending on which wavelengths of light they absorb and which they reflect. Green pigments, for instance, reflect green light and absorb all other colors. For an animal to vanish in plain sight, like most baby fish, it needs to get rid of these colorful compounds.
Some animals’ see-through parts are nearly reflection-free. Glasswing butterflies, for instance, have wings that are almost fully transparent (透明的). Their wings have fewer reflective scales than other butterflies’ wings. The wings are also covered in tiny wax bumps, which soften light’s transition from air to tissue.
In theory, we could draw on some of the same tricks to vanish: Don’t let light bounce around in your body. But that would be hard for a person — or any land animal — to do in real life. Light doesn’t bend that much when passing from water into a sea creature but going from air into an animal’s body, it bends a lot — making invisibility much harder on land.
8. What is the purpose of mentioning Violet Parr in paragraph 1
A. To emphasize a reality gap.
B. To illustrate a scientific concept.
C. To point out an adolescent struggle.
D. To introduce a scientific phenomenon.
9. Why can most baby fish stay invisible
A. They lack pigments.
B. They can absorb light.
C. They can reflect light.
D. They generate pigments.
10. What can be inferred about the example of Glasswing butterflies
A. Other butterflies’ wings can barely reflect light.
B. They cannot produce pigments by themselves.
C. Light can pass through their wings mostly undisturbed.
D. The secret to invisibility merely lies in pigment molecules.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Is It Possible to Be Invisible
B. How We See Through Things
C. Why Are Some Animals Transparent
D. How Animals Hide from Predators
D
Whether to have kids can be one of the most momentous decisions a person makes. Countless factors can sway this choice. How will it affect your finances, your relationships or your career But one of the simplest, most personal considerations is whether, and how, having a child will affect your quality of life.
Here psychologists studying well-being have encountered what’s sometimes called the “parenting paradox” (育儿悖论): parents report lower mood and more stress and depression in their daily lives than adults without children, and yet parents also tend to report greater life satisfaction in general.
In a study of 88 new fathers, Anthony Vaccaro, a research assistant professor at the University of North Carolina predicted that about six months after the birth of their first child, most of them would report an increase in meaning compared with their reports during their partner’s pregnancy. Instead, the research found a roughly even split between participants experiencing an increased or decreased sense of meaning. But that was just the first of several important insights.
Of the participants, 35 underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) both before and after the birth of their child to calculate how in sync (协调的) each part of the brain was with the others. For people with strong functional connectivity, when activity increases in one area, it also ramps up in the rest of the brain. Namely, a father might feel overwhelmed by sleepless nights yet still contextualize this experience as part of a meaningful existence, potentially because greater connectivity in the temporal lobe (颞叶) and other emotion-related regions of the brain allows for better integration of emotional, self-oriented and abstract thinking.
This finding might highlight the takeaway for the study’s dads and for those questioning whether they want children: meaning can be created regardless of the choice made. Our adaptive brain can shift journeys, reimagine stories and help us thrive even when life throws us a curveball — or a screaming infant at two in the morning.
12. What does the underlined word “sway” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Impact. B. Confirm. C. Eliminate. D. Narrow.
13. What do we know about the participants after having their first kids
A. Most of them felt more purposeful in life.
B. Most of them reported greater depression.
C. About half of them reported a decline in meaning.
D. About half of them felt both content and stressed.
14. Why did Anthony measure functional connectivity in the brain
A. To support his previous research findings.
B. To study why fathers lost their sense of meaning.
C. To explore changes in fathers’ brain structure.
D. To make sense of the parenting paradox.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward becoming parents
A. Favorable. B. Dismissive. C. Flexible. D. Ambiguous.

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。
The excitement was undeniable as my closest friends, Jennie and Sofie, and I prepared for our long-awaited seven-day trip to Kashmir. Bags packed and spirits high, we arrived early in the morning. Everything felt perfect until the fifth day.
We were playing in the snow near our campsite when the wind suddenly picked up. I had wandered away from the group, and before I knew it, the sound of laughter had faded. I was alone, surrounded by frost and uncomfortable silence. The world had turned into a blur of white. I couldn’t see any landmarks. I tried calling my friends and our travel assistant but there was no signal. Trapped in a frozen maze, I felt the fear begin to close in.
Then, through the swirling snow, I saw a figure walking steadily toward me. I wanted to call out, but hesitated, unsure of whether to trust a stranger. But as he drew closer, his calm gaze and quiet presence sparked a flicker of hope. “Are you alright ” he asked softly, his voice warm despite the cold.
“I’m lost,” I admitted. “I can’t find my friends, and there’s no signal on my phone.” He nodded knowingly. “The storm makes it hard to see. You’re lucky I found you.”
“How do I get back ” I asked, my voice shaky.
“Follow me,” he said simply. “I know this area well.”
As we walked, minutes felt like hours when we navigated the snow-covered paths. On our way, he told me he was the owner of a homestay (民宿) called Warmglow. To ensure guest safety, he inspected the “snow-walking routes” recommended on the homestay’s official website every day in person, confirming snow thickness, hidden ice, or landslide risks. It was during a regular patrol (巡逻) that he spotted me. Following his lead, I found the icy wilderness somehow less terrifying.

【答案】【参考范文】
Suddenly, I saw the faint outline of people in the distance. My heart leaped with a desperate hope, and I started shouting their names. Tears blurred my vision as I broke into a run and strained to make them out. Then came a flicker of recognition — it was Jennie and Sofie! My friends rushed forward, wrapping me in a tight hug, their faces a mix of relief and worry. I pointed to the man behind me, explaining how the stranger had saved me from the blizzard.
When I looked back to thank my helper, he was nowhere to be found. The three of us stood there, stunned. A mix of gratitude and awe filled me. We later learned from our travel assistant that the man was Mr. Karim, known for being responsible and selfless. The next day, we found his homestay. Over steaming cups of kahwa, we finally expressed our deepest thanks. His modest reply echoed in the room: “It’s what anyone would do.” From then on, Warmglow became our favorite stop, a reminder of humanity’s quiet strength.
