A grandmother cooks chicken. A group of kids, ages 8 to 14, watch her make the dish. This
cooking class is part of a “Summer Camp” in Southern California. At this camp, grandmas are in
charge. Each week, they teach young campers how to cook a new dish and do crafts (手工).
“Loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with, and they love having younger people
around them,” said Zainab, who works at Olive Community Services that brings older adults
together and created the camp.
During the last week of the camp, a 9-year-old Janna learned how to use a sewing machine and
make pockets. The camper had pressed hard on the machine’s pedal (踏板 ), making the needle
move quickly. “Slowly, slowly,” Rahim, a grandma teaching the sewing class, said to her. The girl
smiled when she made it. Rahim said the camp is “filling a gap” for kids. Many schools don’t teach
these skills like cooking and sewing.
Rahim also doesn’t get to spend much time with her grandchildren because they don’t live
close. “It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you,” she said.
The summer camp was organized through a partnership with the Golden Connections Club
started by a 14-year-old high school student Leena to encourage teens and seniors to interact. She
noticed that many students didn’t have the chance to spend as much time with their grandparents.
She also learned about challenges faced by senior adults, such as unfair treatment.
The club organizes monthly lunches at Leena’s school. They invite the seniors to the school
and discuss topics where both groups can learn from each other. One of the most valuable lessons
they’ve shared with her is to live in the moment, and this has taken on new meaning for Leena.
“The people we have right now are not going to be with us forever,” she said.
4. What can we know about the Summer Camp
A. It is mainly about cooking. B. It offers jobs to teenagers.
C. It is in the charge of the seniors. D. It is held on a monthly basis.
5. What do the underlined words “filling a gap” mean in paragraph 3
A. Teaching practical techniques. B. Offering nutritious meals.
C. Organizing interactive activities. D. Providing engaging games.
6. What did Rahim think of teaching the sewing class at the camp
A. Refreshing. B. Fulfilling. C. Challenging. D. Pioneering.
7. What is the main purpose of the club

C. To improve elderly people’s welfare. D. To promote interaction between generations.

Laura Mitchell, a cycling enthusiast, believes bikes bring kids independence and joy. Yet when
teaching her 6 and 9-year-olds to ride, she had to use a school parking lot—their neighborhood has
dangerous roads and intersections. Now skilled riders, the kids still can’t cycle unsupervised (无人
监督的). Mitchell worries about road safety, not her kids’ rule-following, admitting, “It’s chaotic
out there, and I’ve had close calls.”
America’s roads have grown more chaotic in decades: higher speed limits, bigger vehicles, and
more phone-distracted angry drivers. Though child injuries or deaths from cars while walking or
biking have fallen since the 1970s, the CDC says it owes to fewer kids going outside, not safer
streets. This creates a cycle: drivers unaccustomed to kids drive less safely, causing more accidents.
Thus, parents are more anxious and restrictive.
Peter Gray, a Boston College professor, notes that fewer kids are outside, which isn’t just for
fear of cars. Since the 1980s, society has seen kids as delicate, their ability to explore independently
narrowing. He argues childhood’s purpose is building independence, and without it, kids miss out
on growing up. Though he advocates for kid’ freedom, he won’t let his 5-year-old granddaughter
bike outside— her road has no sidewalks but speeding cars.
Esther Walker, from youth cycling nonprofit Outride, says fewer kids walk or bike to school.
Outride works with over 400 American and Canadian schools to teach safe riding. 20-50% of
middle-schoolers in the program have never touched a bike. After the program, kids value the
freedom, confidence, joy, and new friendships biking brings.
Some parents advocate for safer communities. San Francisco’s Mahdi Rahimi started Safe
Streets Bernal to push for better intersection visibility, lower speeds, and protected sidewalks,
hoping his kids can walk to the store alone. Eric and Mary Beth Olson’s 5-year-old daughter Sidney
was killed by a heavy truck in 2023. They founded the Rainbow Fund to improve child safety after
learning neighbors also avoided the dangerous intersection.
Mitchell now leads Our Streets, a traffic safety nonprofit. She notes parents should push for
safer spaces, prepare kids for dangers, and wait for the right time to let them explore.
8. What is Laura Mitchell concerned about
A. Cycling rules. B. Kids’ growth.
C. Kids independence. D. Traffic safety.
9. What does paragraph 2 mainly illustrate
A. Parents’ anxiety and expectation. B. Current dangerous road situation.
C. Declining road accidents in America. D. Present condition of American vehicles.
10. What does the author want to demonstrate by the cases of Gray and Walker
A. Vehicle speeds must be limited. B. Cycling to school requires more attention.
C. Kids’ freedom needs safer roads. D. Kids’ exploring abilities are to be enhanced.
11. Why do some parents establish organizations
C. To call for government recognition. B. To arouse drivers’ safety awareness.
A. To create safer environment for kids. D. To build up community responsibility.

Why do some people keep making harmful choices, even when the outcomes are obvious A
new study by UNSW Sydney’s Dr Bressel found that for a small group, the issue isn’t lack of
motivation or ability, but rather a subtle (微妙的) and continuous failure to connect their actions
with its consequences.
The paper details an online learning game where participants were asked to click between two
planets for rewards or to avoid punishment. Researchers observed three behavioural types:
Sensitives (avoid bad choices), Unawares (adjust strategies after being told their errors) and
Compulsives (still make wrong choices even after learning their mistakes). “Some people don’t
learn from experience. Even when motivated to avoid harm, they fail to see their behaviour causes
problems,” said Dr Bressel.
This study followed past research, which only focused on Australian psychology students, but
had key differences: 267 participants from 24 countries (including over 50-year-olds), six-month
follow-ups, and post-game surveys on their choices. The same behaviour profiles emerged across
cultures and ages. In Australian studies, 35% were Sensitives, 41% Unawares, 23% Compulsives;
in the new study, 26% Sensitives, 47% Unawares, 27% Compulsives. Dr Bressel linked more
Compulsives to older participants, as cognitive (认知的) flexibility declines with age. Interestingly,
when participants were invited back to play the same game six months later, most showed the same
behaviour profile. “That was striking,” said Bressel. “These aren’t just random mistakes. They’re
almost like personality types. This is not to say they’re fixed, just that they may require intervention
to break.” Researchers confirmed Compulsives’ choices weren’t habits: participants could explain
their wrong choices. This points to a deeper issue—a failure to integrate new knowledge to
minimize bad outcomes.
Dr Bressel noted real life is more complex than the game, but the pattern of ignoring
experience and information matches compulsory (强迫的) behaviours. The research has important
implications for public health messaging. Many campaigns rely on providing information—about
smoking, drinking or financial risks—with the assumption that people will act on it. But this study
suggests that for some, information alone isn’t enough. “Standard information campaigns work for
most—but not for everyone,” Dr Bressel said. “For compulsory individuals, we may need different
intervention.”
12. What were participants expected to do in the online learning game
A. Make choices. B. Win awards.
C. Observe behaviours. D. Identify errors.
13. What is a striking finding of the new study
A. Unawareness accounts for the largest. B. Cognition declines with age.
C. Mistakes influence personality types. D. Behavioural patterns are consistent.
14. What does the author suggest for public health campaigns
A. Increasing lecture frequency. B. Reviewing behavioural errors.
C. Developing tailored strategies. D. Enhancing information accuracy.

How to Do a Self-Analysis
You are always growing and changing based on your personality and life experiences.
Therefore, it’s important to regularly take time to conduct a self-analysis. 16____________ Here
are some tips on conducting a self-analysis.
Assessing your self-esteem(自尊)
Start by reflecting on childhood experiences. Ask yourself: Did people listen to you Were your
achievements recognized These help shape your self-perception. Keep a journal to track your
mood shifts. Each change usually connects to your inner voice, which either encourages you or
makes you feel bad. So, whenever your mood is about to change, write down the thoughts that
come to your mind. 17____________.
Understanding your personality
Use the “Big Five” characteristics. They reveal key parts of your personality for interacting
with others. Draw five straight upright lines on paper. Label them with “Extraversion”,
“Neuroticism”, “Conscientiousness”, “Agreeableness” and “Openness to Experience”.
18____________. This helps you understand why you act the way you do.
Making a self-assessment
List what you achieved in the past year. If you find it hard to remember your achievements, use
the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). 19____________. Also, write down the areas
where you want to improve. It is very important to be objective during your self-analysis.
20____________
Some people think therapy (疗法 ) is only for big, unsolvable problems. However, that’s far
from the truth. A consultant or therapist can help you with self-analysis. They are trained and fair,
and they understand the common thinking mistakes people make.
Consistently practice these self-analysis methods and you’ll know yourself better and make
progress gradually.
A. Examining your health state
B. Seeking help from professionals
C. This allows you to highlight your value
D. Then rate yourself “High” or “Low” on each
E. During the process of adapting, change can bring stress
F. They often reflect how you see yourself, others, and the world
G. It helps you reflect on where you are in various aspects of your life

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。
Peter and Oliver were crazy about basketball. After school, you could always find them on the
school basketball court, sweat streaming down their faces as the sun went low. Peter had a natural
talent for shooting, while Oliver struggled a little with his dribbling (运球). Though Oliver didn’t
play as well as Peter, he was a warm-hearted child willing to accept others’ opinions. The basketball
court often witnessed their laughter mixed with the sound of the ball bouncing on the concrete.
A piece of exciting news came one day. The school would attend a youth basketball tournament
of the city, filling all boys with excitement. Almost every one of them wanted to join the school
team, so did Peter and Oliver. “Imagine us playing together on the court, representing our school!”
Peter said with a broad smile. Oliver’s eyes lit up. From that day on, they trained even harder. They
woke up early to practice before school, worked on passing and dribbling during lunch breaks, and
stayed late to perfect their shots. Oliver’s skills got better, but he still looked up to Peter.
The day the school team list was announced finally arrived. Everyone sat on the edge of their
seats, waiting for the headmaster, Mr Lee, to speak. Peter sat up straight, confident he’d make it.
But Oliver’s hands were shaking, and he stared at his desk, too nervous to look up. Peter gently
nudged (轻推 ) him. “Don’t worry,” he whispered. “We’re both getting in. I know it.” Mr Lee
started reading the names: “Tom, Jake, Sam... Peter.” A big smile swept across Peter’s face. He
turned to high-five Oliver, only to see Oliver’s pale face. Mr Lee finished the list, and Oliver’s
name wasn’t there. With shoulders shaking, Oliver stared out of the window, trying hard to hold
back tears. After Mr Lee left, Oliver rushed out of the room.
注意：
(1)续写词数应为 150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Peter ran after Oliver, trying to comfort him.

My View on AI-driven Health Support On Campus
Recently, many schools apply AI in mental-health consulting, causing a heated debate among
students.
I fully support schools using AI to assist with psychological advice. It offers unique advantages
that benefit students greatly. AI provides 24/7 availability, allowing students to seek help whenever
they need support. Unlike human advisors, it’s free of judgment, making shy students more willing
to open up. Additionally, AI can analyze data to detect emotional changes early, preventing more
serious situations.
Though AI can’t replace human care, it is a valuable supporting tool, making psychological
advice more accessible and timely to students. (96 words)

Peter ran after Oliver, trying to comfort him. Peter sat silently beside him for a while. “Don’t
be sad. You have your advantages. Don’t give up on yourself just because of one failure.” He held
Oliver on the shoulder, looking straight into his eyes sincerely. Then Peter told Oliver that as he
was careful, considerate and had strong organizational skills, the team needed him. Serving the
team was as meaningful as playing on the court. Oliver lowered his head and thought for a while,
then nodded, realizing what he could do. Knowingly, they smiled to each other. (89 words)
The match day saw Oliver sitting beside the court, happily watching. He brought water bottles
for the players, wiped the sweat off their faces with towels, and shouted loudest whenever their
team scored. In the final minute, Tom hurt his ankle and had to stop. Mr Lee looked worried—until
Peter pointed at Oliver. “Let him play!” he shouted. Oliver froze, then rushed onto the court. With
the crowd cheering, he made a perfect pass to Peter, who hit an amazing three-pointer, securing
their victory. Peter cast a look at Oliver and found a broad smile spreading across Oliver’s face. (88
words)
