Two years ago, working full-time from home, Kristin Richardson was overwhelmed by nonstop work calls, endless housework, and constant demands from her two daughters, until she reached her breaking point.
Richardson’s initial solution was to advertise for a personal assistant. The only applicant was a man living in the Philippines. Then she investigated companies that provide online personal assistants. “They don’t know your market,” she says. “Nor do they have in-person relationships in the community to get things done.”
So last summer, Richardson created a team of local personal assistants who stand ready to help with life’s many demands. She named the company Sherah. “This is a beautiful community of women helping women,” she says, noting her goal is to provide support for women who wish to stay in the workforce, as well as to hire those who want to set their own schedules.
Richardson’s clients are primarily working women but also include some stay-at-home moms and single fathers. A $100 monthly membership fee grants access to a team of personal assistants. Coverage begins with a 60-minute session during which the team gets to know the
clients and their needs and preferences. From there, a task list is created and jobs are assigned within the team. An annual membership is available for $1,200, which includes an hour of free task time per month. The membership fee also includes proactive ( 主动出击的) information—reminding members to think about camps, family birthdays, annual events, etc.—and tips about new experiences in town.
Despite receiving a few complaints about membership costs and minor service delays, Richardson says she routinely hears from clients about the impact Sherah is having in their lives. “One client said she seems happier,” Richardson says. “I heard from another client, a banking executive, that she’s pursuing a promotion. She said she wouldn’t have the confidence to go after the job if she didn’t know she had us behind her.
What did Richardson do before starting the company
Doing a lot of advertising. B. Studying assistant companies.
C. Hiring a personal assistant. D. Interviewing working mothers.
What inspired Richardson to launch Sherah
The mothers’ unseen hardships. B. Women’s demand for full-time jobs.
C. Her own unpleasant full-time job. D. Working mums’ struggle with family life.
What can we learn about Sherah from the last two paragraphs
Full-time mums are their main clients. B. They got positive feedback from clients.
C. Their annual members get birthday gifts. D. Monthly fee grants hours of free task time.
Where is the text probably taken from
A life magazine. B. A research paper. C. A parenting book. D. A travel brochure.
C
A joint research team recently has developed a new electronic skin that is similar to human skin in durability and sensitivity. The skin or e-skin may play an important role in next-generation personalized medicine, soft robotics and artificial intelligence.
“The ideal e-skin will mimic ( 模 仿 ) the many natural functions of human skin, such as sensing temperature and touch, accurately and in real time,” says leading researcher Yichen Cai. However, suitably flexible electronics that can perform such delicate tasks while also used repeatedly must be carefully engineered.
Most e-skins are made by putting an active sensor on the surface of human skin. However,
the connection between them is often too weak, which reduces the durability and sensitivity of the material; otherwise, if it is too strong, it won’t be flexible enough, making it more likely to break the circuit.
“The landscape of skin electronics keeps shifting at a remarkable pace,” says Cai. “The discovery of 2D sensors has accelerated efforts to turn these quite thin but strong materials into functional, durable artificial skins.” The new man-made skin built by the researchers could sense objects from 20 centimeters away. It could further make a quick response when touched in less than one tenth of a second. This type of e-skin could monitor a range of biological information, such as changes in blood pressure, which can be detected from movements of arms and legs. This data can then be shared and stored on the cloud via Wi-Fi.
“One remaining problem to the widespread use of e-skins lies in mass production of high-resolution sensors,” adds group leader Vincent Tung. “However, the latest technology offers new promise.”
What is one of the features of the new e-skin
Single-use. B. Delicate. C. Sensitive to touch. D. Identical to human skin.
Why are most e-skins mentioned in paragraph 3
To prove e-skins’ popularity. B. To highlight the design challenges.
C. To show the making procedures. D. To present the similarities with others.
What does the underlined word “landscape” in paragraph 4 most probably mean
Natural scenery. B. Personal space. C. Career plan. D. Development situation.
What is the purpose of the text
To present a cutting-edge e-skin. B. To discuss a medical topic.
C. To show a physical phenomenon. D. To analyze the future of robots.
D
In Tell Me Where It Hurts, pain psychologist Rachel Zoffness challenges the long-held view that pain is merely a direct signal of physical damage. She argues pain is a “complex cocktail” of physical, emotional, psychological and social factors, offering new insights into the problem.
Zoffness illustrates this with two nail stories. A construction worker stepped on a 7-inch nail, screaming in great pain, but the nail missed his foot—his pain was real without injury. On
the contrary, a man had a 4-inch nail stuck in his face, yet felt little pain. These stories prove pain is not a reliable indicator of bodily harm, breaking the traditional link between damage and discomfort.
Zoffness defines pain as a biopsychosocial phenomenon. The U.S. healthcare system focuses only on the biological aspect, missing two-thirds of the problem. She criticizes the system’s over-reliance on drugs and surgeries, noting that chronic pain affects millions, yet clinicians often lack training in whole-person care. Many pain sufferers feel unheard, as their non-physical struggles are ignored. But she offers hope: we can control some “pain ingredients”. Her book offers behavioral strategies—improving sleep, strengthening social ties, addressing injuries—for patients and providers. She stresses, “Never label pain as incurable.”
Moreover, she highlights that whole-person care requires a shift in mindset. Clinicians must listen to patients’ full experiences, not just physical symptoms. This shift can empower patients to take an active role in their recovery, turning them from passive recipients to active participants. She also calls for better education of medical professionals on the psychological aspects of pain. Still, Zoffness ends optimistically. Pain, as a “whole-person problem”, needs a “whole-person solution”. Whole-person approaches unlock countless paths to relief, offering real hope to those trapped in chronic pain. This vision could reshape pain care for generations.
What can be inferred from the two nail examples in paragraph 2
Pain perception can be subjective. B. Severe wounds cause long-term pain.
C. Workers are more sensitive to pain. D. Pain intensity depends on wound size.
What does the author intend to convey by mentioning clinicians’ insufficient training
Mental issues are overlooked. B. Health care system is flawless.
C. Doctors lack clinical guidance. D. Patients should seek government help.
What does the “shift in mindset” in whole-person care mainly refers to？
From active to passive.
From narrow to comprehensive.
From patient-centered to doctor-centered.
From experience-focused to symptom-focused.
What is the most suitable title for the text
Drawbacks in Old Pain Treatments B. A Pioneer in Medical Research
C. New Strategies for Mental Pain D. Pain Goes beyond Bodily Injury
第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Education is about learning, enriching our lives and making us better citizens and independent thinkers. 36 But over the last decade and a half, the goal of learning has given way to grades and degrees. This has led to inflation (通货膨胀) in both.
Degree inflation means employers require a bachelor’s degree or more for work that really
doesn’t need it. Fortunately, hiring managers have begun to learn that, and degree requirements have been declining in many fields. 37 An analysis showed that grades in the Los Angeles have been rising while scores on nationwide standardized exams have been crashing. The gaps between grades and test scores are immense and consistent. Students’ actual mastery of the material declines despite their more credits and higher grades in math.
38 To avoid discouraging students, some school districts did away with F grade, so grade point averages have consistently risen. Plus, there is huge pressure from students and their parents. In a 2023 survey, educators said roughly half of students requested higher grades than they had earned and that 8 out of 10 teachers gave in, for a third of students and parents bother them when they don’t.
Inflated grades damage the college admission process. While colleges used to regard high school grade point averages as the best predictor of higher education success, their predictive value has decreased. 39 Consequently, some students, armed with good grades, march off to college, only to find themselves in remedial classes (补习班) because they haven’t learned enough to take college-level courses.
We have to ask ourselves: Do we want education to be about intellectual growth or a performance driven by grade inflation 40
Grade inflation results from multiple factors.
Its core mission is globally recognized by educators.
Standardized tests reflect real academic performance effectively.
Yet grade inflation shows no sign of slowing down in this period.
After all, education should return to original nurturing of learners.
A high grade no longer guarantees a student’s academic competence.
Many teachers are tired of parents’ endless requests for higher grades.

The sun sank behind the trees as the wildlife photographer held his camera tight, hoping to capture an image of a relatively rare bird, a particular kind of heron ( 苍 鹭 ). He’d 41 several disappointing hours in vain with no luck at all. He needed a 42 soon, otherwise
it would be too 43 and he would have to come back the next day and start all over again. Suddenly, to his delight, a heron 44 on a branch right in front of him. He 45 raised his camera, adjusted the focus and took the 46 just a second before the bird spread its wings and flew away.
Feeling particularly pleased with himself, the photographer looked at the image, only to make an astonishingly apparent 47 . There, in the background, easy to 48 at first sight, was another bird mid-flight: a strikingly rare, nearly endangered woodpecker, one so mysterious that many birdwatchers spend years for just a 49 of it.
The photographer hadn’t noticed the woodpecker at all; even without 50 , he had photographed a bird much rarer than the one he’d aimed for. This unexpected 51 illustrates the concept of serendipity (机缘巧合)—the experience of 52 something extraordinary while searching for something entirely 53 .
History is often filled with such moments, from scientific breakthroughs like Penicillin’s ( 青 霉 素 ) accidental finding to everyday 54 . Sometimes, the most remarkable discoveries happen not through constant 55 , but through being in the right place at the right time.
41. A. driven B. extended C. waited D. stretched
42. A. signal B. reward C. bird D. coffee
43. A. dark B. delicate C. mysterious D. terrifying
44. A. survived B. settled C. crashed D. hid
45. A. continuously B. substantially C. patiently D. instantly
46. A. vision B. scene C. sight D. shot
47. A. claim B. mistake C. discovery D. presentation
48. A. ignore B. memorize C. handle D. eliminate
49. A. taste B. glimpse C. smell D. touch
50. A. movement B. efforts C. emphasis D. warning
51. A. intervention B. setback C. comparison D. incident
52. A. taking up B. making for C. coming across D. wiping out
53. A. unaware B. endangered C. unlikely D. different
54. A. surprises B. attempts C. anticipations D. routines
55. A. pursuit B. observation C. struggle D. reflection

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。
After Ms. Morgan’s art class in the art room on Wednesday, Vince would stay back to
help tidy up.
The first thing he noticed when he joined the class last semester was the old wooden easel (画架) by the window. Ms. Morgan had talked about it so often that every student knew its story—it was a gift from her dearest workmate, Mrs. Hale, who retired after 30 years of teaching art here. That easel was more than just wood and nails. It was covered with tiny signatures of students from past years—from the kids who’d gone on to study art in college. Every morning, Ms. Morgan would wipe its surface with a soft cloth, careful not to damage the names. Last month, when a rainstorm leaked through the window, she’d rushed to move it to
safety, saying, “This easel’s held more dreams than any textbook in this room.”
As Vince carried a box of paintbrushes and a tube of paint, he tripped slightly, and his left arm crashed into the easel. It fell down! One of the easel’s legs, which had been joined with wood glue, broke into two pieces. Some signatures on the easel were also stained.
His heart sank like a stone. He dropped to his knees, fingers brushing the familiar signatures, and felt a cold panic spread through his back. His mum had told him once about a time she had broken her neighbor’s plant pot as a kid and hidden it—she had felt guilty for weeks, her stomach hurting every time she passed the neighbor’s yard. “Avoiding the truth doesn’t fix what’s broken,” she’d said. But the thought of Ms. Morgan’s sad face made his
throat tight. He stood up, staring at the broken leg, and even considered dragging the easel into the storage room—maybe no one would find it right away. All afternoon, he sat through math and history class with that image stuck in his head, unable to focus on anything.

参考范文
By the end of school, Vince dragged his feet to Ms. Morgan’s office. His heart was pounding loud. When Ms. Morgan looked up from her papers, he said in a low voice, “I broke the easel—I tripped with paintbrushes and hit it. I’m so sorry. I know how much it means to you.” He stared at his shoes, waiting for anger, but Ms. Morgan stood up and spoke softly. She told him she wasn’t angry, but proud he’d been honest, adding that the easel was special, but honesty matters more, and suggested they fix it together with wood glue and paint.
Feeling a weight lifted, Vince headed straight for the art room. He went to the art room, determined to fix the broken easel himself. Vince was on the point of moving the easel when Ms. Morgan appeared from behind who brought useful advice. Vince fetched sandpaper to smooth broken leg’s edges, while Ms. Morgan spread wood glue on pieces. She handed him a brush and they touched up stained signatures with matching paint, and then added a blue star by old ones. Vince said it still had a faint mark, and Ms. Morgan smiled, “Honesty isn’t about
never making mistakes. It’s about the courage to tell the truth when you do and taking action to fix.”

M: I’m interested in the host position, then.

M: Sure, that sounds good. Thank you for considering me for the position. Text 10 青少年睡眠问题
W: Good morning, everyone. It’s time for our weekly health class. How many of you feel tired
all the time Raise your hands, please. Wow, there are a lot of hands! Doctors recommend that teens get at least 8-10 hours of sleep each night. However, in practice, many teens struggle to make it. This is often due to a conflict between nature and modern life. During our teenage years, our body clocks tend to move forward. This natural change makes us want to go to sleep and wake up much later. However, as society usually demands we get up early, the key is finding a way to fall asleep earlier. Later on in the lesson, we’ll be talking about how stress and screen addiction can also impact our sleep. But first, we’re going to study the 10-3-2-1 sleep rule. This means that ten hours before bed, you stop drinking tea, coffee, and other energy drinks. Your last meal of the day should be at least three hours before bed. Homework and other work should be completed at least two hours before bed. One hour before bed, you shut off all screens. These tips will help ready your body for sleep, and help you drop off to sleep
much more quickly.
