阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Einstein Museum: Unlocking the Genius of Albert Einstein in Bern
It’s about experiencing a rich cultural institution that connects the past, present, and future of knowledge. It’s a journey through time and thought, all under one rather impressive roof. To really get the most out of your visit, a little planning goes a long way. This isn’t just a walk-through; it’s an experience that deserves your full attention. Here’s a little checklist for you to follow:
Set Aside Enough Time
While you could rush through the Einstein Museum in an hour, I’d strongly recommend at least 2-3 hours to properly absorb the exhibits, engage with the interactives, and listen to the audio guide.
Consider Purchasing the Full Experience Ticket
The museum offers tiered ticketing. If you’re primarily interested in Einstein, the “Einstein Plus” ticket is perfect. However, if you want to see the incredible historical collections and any temporary exhibitions too, the “Entire Venue” ticket is the best value.
Visit During Quieter Times
Like most popular attractions, it can get busy, especially on weekends and during peak tourist season. For a more peaceful experience, try visiting on a weekday or later in the afternoon.
Make Use of the Audio Guide
The included audio guide in nine languages is excellent. It provides context, explains complex theories in an accessible way, and adds depth to the objects you see. Don’t skip it.
Check Accessibility
The Einstein Museum section is fully accessible for wheelchair users. It’s always good to check the latest information on the official website for specific needs.
Respect the Photography Policy
Be aware that photography and filming are banned throughout the entire museum. This helps preserve the artifacts and allows all visitors to immerse themselves in the experience without distraction.
21. Why does the author recommend the “Entire Venue” ticket
A. It provides the audio guide.
B. It allows visitors to visit during quieter times.
C. It ensures full accessibility for wheelchair users.
D. It is the most cost-effective ticket for full access.
22. According to the text, which of the following tips is given
A. Allowing at least 2 to 3 hours for your visit.
B. Visiting on weekends to enjoy special exhibitions.
C. Taking photos only in the historical collections area.
D. Going to the information table for special assistance.
23. Who is this text mainly intended for
A. Museum staff who organize daily operations.
B. Potential visitors planning a trip to the Museum.
C. High school students writing a report on Einstein.
D. Researchers studying Einstein’s original manuscripts.
B
Recently, a video went viral on social media showing an American mechanic (机修工) sharing his experience of unexpectedly receiving a pair of work gloves as a gift from a Chinese seller after purchasing automotive repair tools online.
The pair of gloves brought back a bittersweet sense of being “cared for”. It reminded him of his younger days when buying trading cards always came with free gum, purchasing a dozen donuts often included a few extras, and auto repair shops routinely offered free oil changes with other maintenance or repair work.
He recalled that back then, American businesses were more willing to offer such gestures, genuinely caring about building long - term relationships with customers. However, today, the business environment in the US has become dehumanized. It’s something that we’ve completely lost track of in this society. There is no thank - you from business to consumer anymore.
But the point is, somebody in China had the thought. They made this tool. It’s used for clutches (离合器); clutches are a dirty job. So, here, whoever’s doing that will appreciate a fresh new pair of gloves. This is the way business is supposed to be.
Many netizens also commented on the video, expressing similar feelings about the changes in the current US business environment. Beyond the heartwarming gesture of receiving the gloves, what also impressed the American mechanic was the quality of the automotive repair tools he purchased. He mentioned that, given the good price, he initially thought that even if they were only meant for single use, they would be worth it — yet they proved to be long - lasting enough to be used for years. Nowadays, products made in China are not only reliable in quality but also rich in emotional value.
24. How did the American mechanic get the pair of gloves
A. He bought a set that included them.
B. He bought them from an online store.
C. The Chinese seller gave them to him for free.
D. They were found in his automotive workshop.
25. Why did the American mechanic have a “bittersweet” feeling
A. The gloves were of surprisingly high quality.
B. The gift was unexpected and the tool was cheap.
C. He missed the free gum that came with trading cards.
D. He was reminded of kinder business practices now gone.
26. What does the underlined word “dehumanized” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Highly efficient and fast. B. Lacking care or warmth.
C. More expensive than before. D. Focused only on online sales.
27. Which of the following can be concluded from the passage
A. Online shops are more reliable than local stores.
B. Small gifts are essential for customer satisfaction.
C. Business should care for customers and offer quality.
D. Chinese products offer the best emotional connection.
C
The transitional period between summer and winter — known as autumn — seems to be getting shorter, and this is not a fantasy.
Although autumn is generally short across most parts of China, the southwestern region enjoys a relatively longer autumn period, typically lasting between 70 and 80 days. Excluding Kunming, which often has spring and autumn seasons in a row and isn’t included in this comparison, cities like Guiyang, Chengdu, and Chongqing lead in duration, with Guiyang having the longest autumn period at 79 days. In contrast, the shortest autumns are found in Northeast and North China, mostly around 50 days. In Beijing, residents even joke that they “take off summer clothes and directly put on winter wear”.
An analysis of big data reveals that since 1991, the beginning of autumn has been delayed in many parts of China, with this trend being more pronounced in eastern regions compared to western paring the average start dates of autumn per decade from 1991-2020, cities like Zhengzhou, Ningbo, and Shenzhen show the most significant delays, more than 10 days. The autumns in Nanjing, Hefei, Hangzhou, Nanchang, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Qingdao, Lanzhou, Yinchuan, and Urumqi have also been pushed back by 5 to 9 days compared to before.
This delay in the start of autumn is closely related to the warming of the local climate. Wang Weiyue, a meteorologist (气象学家) at Weather China, explained that rising temperatures across various regions have become an undeniable fact, impacting agricultural production, the socio-economy, and people’s daily lives.
Not only is autumn arriving later, but its duration is also gradually shortening. Research by numerous scientists looking at seasonal changes in China has found that both the start of autumn and winter are being delayed, while the lengths of winter, spring, and autumn are all decreasing. Regionally, these changes are more noticeable in northern areas compared to the south, and in eastern regions compared to the west.
28. Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 2
A. To explain why Kunming has a unique climate.
B. To prove that Beijing has the most comfortable weather.
C. To show that all Chinese cities have a very short autumn.
D. To compare the lengths of autumn in different parts of China.
29. What is the function of paragraph 3
A. To introduce the research methods of the scientists.
B. To provide solutions for combating climate change.
C. To share a personal story about experiencing autumn.
D. To prove that autumn is beginning later with some data.
30. What trend has scientific research found about seasons in China
A. The summer season is extending.
B. Only autumn is hit by climate change.
C. Changes are more obvious in southern China.
D. Winters are lengthening as autumns are shortening.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Autumn in China: A Season on the Decline
B. Global Warming: A Climate Alarm for Our Seasons
C. Nature’s Favor: The Long Autumn of Southwest China
D. The Long and Short of Autumn: A National Comparison
D
When it comes to losing weight, how your food is prepared may matter more than whether it ticks the correct nutritional boxes. A study from University College London found that people lost twice as much weight when on a diet of fresh, home-cooked food (MPF — minimally processed food), compared with that of highly-processed ready meals and packaged snacks (HPF — highly-processed food) — even though both diet plans met the same NHS healthy-eating guidelines.
Researchers suspect that the soft texture (质地) of many HPFs and the fact they tend to contain more calories per bite make them harder to resist and easier to overeat, compared with home-cooked alternatives, which, on paper, may look nutritionally very similar.
The study followed 55 overweight adults as they followed two dietary phases, each lasting eight weeks, subsequently. One was made up almost entirely of HPF, the other mostly consisted of MPF. In both cases, the participants were provided with meals that met the standards of NHS England’s Eatwell Guide. They were given more food than they were likely to eat and were told to consume as much or as little as they liked.
On both diets, they lost weight. But those on the MPF diet lost roughly twice as much: an average of 2.06 per cent of their body weight, compared with 1.05 per cent on the HPF diet. The weight loss was due to a decreased intake of calories, compared with the participants’ previous diets. Dr Samuel Dicken of UCL, who led the study, said the weight reductions could add up over time. If the diets continue for a year, he estimates a 13 per cent weight reduction for men and 9 per cent for women on the MPF diet, compared with 4-5 per cent on the HPF version. Participants also reported fewer strong urges to eat on the MPF diet, despite the greater weight loss.
32. What did the study find
A. HPF led to more weight loss than MPF.
B. People preferred the taste of home-cooked meals.
C. Both diets helped lose weight but MPF worked better.
D. Following any nutritional diet plan helped lose weight.
33. Why do HPFs seem less effective for weight loss
A. They go beyond the nutritional standards.
B. They tend to pack more calories per bite.
C. They are often provided in larger amounts.
D. People on the HPF diet tend to feel full for longer.
34. How was the study carried out
A. By strictly controlling every meal’s calories.
B. By supplying food beyond the typical nutritional range.
C. By letting the participants try two different diets in sequence.
D. By requiring participants to report their weight at any given time.
35. What can we learn about the result of the study
A. Long-term consumption of HPFs is harmful to health.
B. Men consistently lost twice as much weight as women.
C. People generally feel hungrier when they are on the MPF diet.
D. The weight - loss difference between the two diets could widen over time.

Running a marathon is a remarkable achievement that requires long-term commitment and a strategic approach in order to prepare properly and prevent injury. ____36____ Here are key principles for an effective training cycle.
Dedicate enough time. A proper training foundation cannot be rushed. Give yourself at least 4 to 6 months to train properly, allowing your body to adapt. Register for your chosen marathon well in advance to secure your spot and solidify your commitment. Aim to start a detailed plan 16 to 24 weeks before race day. ____37____
____38____ Most plans involve running three times a week, with a rest day between sessions for recovery. Designate one weekly run as your long run so you can go longer. Use the other sessions for speed, pacing, or hill training to improve overall strength.
Do not overlook warming up and cooling down. ____39____ Afterwards, spend another 5 to 10 minutes cooling down with walking or gentle jogging. This helps your body gradually transition to a resting state.
Be smart about consistency. While following the plan consistently is ideal, life sometimes interrupts. ____40____ These quick fixes often lead to overuse injuries. Instead, listen to your body, accept the missed workout, and simply resume your plan with the next scheduled run.
A. Establish a core weekly structure.
B. Following a structured plan is vital.
C. Run on a daily basis to build a strong routine.
D. Adjust your training based on how you feel each day.

67. 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 have always found my peace in the quiet moments, playing my old guitar and writing simple songs about the night sky or a passing feeling. My world was small and soft, filled with tunes only I seemed to hear. In contrast, my friends were always active and loud on social media. Their phones buzzed (发出嗡嗡声) constantly with messages as they posted showy dance videos, following trends and the cheers of hundreds of likes. They often gently pushed me, “Leo, join us! Make something cool and popular. No one has time for quiet songs anymore.” Their words planted a seed of doubt in my mind. Was my quiet world…wrong The pressure to fit in grew heavy, and finally, I decided to try. I would follow the crowd.
For one whole week, I put my guitar in its case and learned a fast-paced, popular dance. The moves felt unnatural to my body, and the whole attempt felt like wearing a costume that didn’t fit. When I finally posted it, an empty feeling settled in my stomach. The response was quite weak — a few pity likes and some confused comments from my very friends. I failed at being popular, and I felt more lost than ever.
That same night, the silence in my room was heavy. I slowly opened the guitar case. My fingers found the familiar strings almost on their own. A wave of calm washed over me. What did I really have to lose by being myself With a deep breath, I recorded a simple, honest video — just me, my guitar, and a quiet song. I posted it and slept, expecting nothing.

【答案】例文
The next morning, my phone buzzed. I picked it up with a mix of curiosity and nervousness, not knowing what to expect. When I checked the notifications, I was surprised to see that my simple guitar video had received many more likes and comments than my dance attempt. Some comments said that my song had touched their hearts, and one even mentioned that it reminded them of a peaceful night they once spent under the stars, which was exactly the feeling I wanted to convey. It dawned on me that what truly mattered was the sincerity behind what I created, not whether it followed the latest trends.
I didn’t become an Internet star. But that didn’t matter at all. What mattered was that I had rediscovered the joy of being myself. The experience taught me that trying to fit into a mold that wasn’t meant for me only led to disappointment and confusion. Instead, when I stayed true to my own interests and passions, like playing my guitar and writing quiet songs, I could connect with others in a deeper and more meaningful way. I realized that my quiet world, filled with tunes only I seemed to hear at first, could actually resonate with many people if I shared it authentically.
