Night after night, a familiar pair makes their rounds at an apartment community: a woman collecting trash, and her loyal dog, Princess. Rain or shine, the woman performs this essential, though difficult, job, always accompanied by her faithful companion.
One resident, Olivia Perkins, was especially touched by their routine and the bond between the woman and her dog. She began filming short clips of the two working together, and eventually decided to surprise her with a thoughtful gift: a matching safety vest (马甲) for Princess so they could work together safely—and in style. In a heartfelt moment captured on video, the woman gently puts the vest on her dog, smiling as she thanks Perkins, clearly moved by the gesture.
Perkins shared the video online, hoping to spread some warmth. The response, however, grew far beyond her expectations. Viewers were not only charmed by the bond between the woman and her dog but also impressed by her dedication and positive attitude. The video went viral. The woman's daughter-in-law recognized her online and shared more of her story.
People soon learned the woman was navigating particularly tough times. Going through a personal transition, she had recently sold her vehicle to afford one reliable enough for work. She and Princess were living in a small, worn-down apartment, working hard to make ends meet. Yet, as Perkins noted, she faced each day with a smile and a kind word for everyone.
Moved by her resilience (坚韧) and the overwhelming online response, Perkins started a fundraiser to help ease some of her financial strain. The fundraiser quickly surpassed its goal, offering crucial support. “Please be kind. Everyone is dealing with something they do not speak about and will still show up to work every day,” said Perkins. “The people that work behind the scenes are the ones that need all the praise. Small jobs are the most important stories that always go unnoticed and get the least amount of thank you.”
The story, which began with a simple vest, became a powerful reminder. It showed how a single act of kindness, recognizing the dignity in another's work and struggle, can ripple outward. Sometimes, seeing and appreciating one person's quiet strength can inspire a community to help them carry their load.
24. What does the underlined part “the gesture” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The dog-human bond. B. Perkins’s gift-giving act.
C. Putting the vest on the dog. D. Filming the woman working.
25. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4
A. What makes the video go viral. B. How the woman found empathy.
C. What the follow-up video reveals. D. How the woman struggled with life.
26. What can we learn from Perkins’s words
A. Financial support is crucial to everyone.
B. Service workers deserve respect too.
C. People behind the scenes pay.
D. Small jobs are of little value.
27. What message does the story convey
A. Loyal pets will serve as great companions.
B. Positive attitude will lead to eventual success.
C. Social media can bring about effective solutions.
D. Kindness often starts with the simplest gestures.
C
We all experience moments when our thoughts drift away from what we’re doing. Scientists call this "mind wandering". Past research has mostly focused on how our minds wander to memories or future plans. This “cognitive” mind wandering is linked to both creativity and distress (悲伤).
However, a new study suggests we also frequently engage in “body wandering”—when spontaneous (自发的) thoughts turn to bodily sensations like our heartbeat or breath. “The effects of this have been largely overlooked,” says neuroscientist Michael Allen.
To investigate, Allen’s team had 536 people lie in an MRI scanner. Afterward, they reported what was on their minds. Besides typical daydreams, many reported paying attention to bodily sensations. The MRI scans supported this, showing that “body wandering” had a different form of brain function than cognitive mind wandering.
The findings revealed a complex picture. In the moment, people who reported more body wandering during the scan also reported feeling more distress. Study coauthor Leah Banellis notes that the confined (狭窄的) MRI environment might have influenced this.
Yet, the broader picture told a different story. Overall, participants who tended to engage in body wandering more often in daily life showed fewer symptoms of depression and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Both conditions are often associated with excessive traditional mind wandering and poor interoception—the ability to sense one's internal bodily state.
“While focusing on the body might feel unpleasant in a stressful moment, a general tendency to tune into bodily signals could have a protective effect over time, ” Banellis explains. It might help ground individuals likely to fall into harmful cycles of negative thinking
A key limitation, according to peer reviewer Aaron Kucyi, is that inner thoughts were measured only once. “Mind wandering is dynamic. A single measure might miss its slight differences,” he says. “Despite this, the study is influential for potentially bridging two separate fields of research: interoception and mind wandering.”
28. What aspect of body wandering does the research focus on
A. Its effects. B. Its symptoms. C. Its causes. D. Its variety.
29. What did the MRI scans show about body wandering
A. A distinct brain activity. B. A strong personal preference.
C. Greatly enhanced attention. D. Limited technological observation.
30. What did Allen’s team find about body wandering
A. It is artificial and measurable.
B. It is time—saving and worthwhile.
C. It leads to dangerous thoughts but healthier body.
D. It causes short-term negative emotions but long-term benefits.
31. What is Aaron Kucyi’s attitude to the study
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Reserved. D. Unclear.
D
Today, concrete production accounts for roughly 8 percent of global carbon emissions, which is about a quarter of all industry carbon emissions. Fortunately, the ancient Romans might have taught us a thing or two about manufacturing concrete that lasts for thousands of years.
A new study has strictly analyzed the raw materials and energy demands of the ancient recipe of Roman concrete, revealing some useful ways to improve modern cement (水泥). Surprisingly, researchers found that producing Roman concrete requires more water and more greenhouse gas emissions than commonly used concrete today. But while the initial energy costs may be higher, it may not need to be replaced or repaired as often.
It’s hard to compare the longevity of Roman concrete to modern concrete, because today, many concrete buildings and structures are reinforced with steel. As steel rusts (生锈), it expands, forcing any surrounding concrete to crack and degrade in as little as a decade. By comparison, ancient Roman concrete is capable of restoring itself. This means that when cracks appear in the cement, they are naturally glued back together when water leaks in. That’s part of the water reason ancient Roman seawalls have lasted for centuries, despite the constant erosion (侵蚀) of seawater.
Daniela Martinez, lead author and engineer of the University of the North in Columbia acknowledges that longer-lasting cement structures “can only partially balance out increased demand for new material,” but Roman manufacturing methods may also hold other environmental benefits.
Roman concrete produces far fewer dangerous air pollutants, possibly because the limestone, the main ingredient of Roman concrete, is burned using clean wood, not fossil (化石) fuels. According to recent models, using Roman cement techniques could reduce harmful gas emissions by up to 98 percent compared to modern methods. “There are a lot of lessons that we can draw from the Romans. If we can incorporate their strategies with our modern innovative ideas, we can create a more sustainable built environment.” says Martinez.
32. How does the author present the background of the study
A. By giving examples.
B. By providing statistics.
C. By defining a concept.
D. By describing a scene.
33. What can be inferred about Roman concrete
A. It has a short service life.
B. It needs regular maintenance.
C. It proves sustainable over time.
D. It requires low initial energy costs.
34. Which word can best describe the property of ancient Roman concrete
A. Ever-lasting. B. Self-healing. C. Easy-cutting. D. Safe-guarding.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Green Living, A New Path.
B. Carbon Crisis, A Modern Issue.
C. Magic Power, A Roman Mystery.
D. Ancient Recipe, A Possible Solution.

Mistakes are an unavoidable part of life. They can range from minor errors to significant missteps that change our life’s direction. Instead of getting lost in regret, it’s crucial to learn how to heal and grow from those experiences. ____36____ Here are the tips you can try the next time you want to forgive yourself.
Understand the impact of past mistakes.

It’s vital to remember that making mistakes is a normal part of being human. ____37____ Embracing this shared experience can help you approach it with understanding rather than harsh judgment.
____38____
Releasing guilt and shame is essential for healing. These negative feelings can trap you in a loop of self-blame. To break free, start by reflecting on your mistake and its consequences. Self-compassion is key. Treat yourself as you would treat a friend who made a similar mistake. Remind yourself that everyone fails and that your past actions do not define your worth.

For instance, if poor time management led to missing a deadline at work, consider strategies to improve this skill. ____39____ Write about the mistake and the lessons learned. This not only helps you think clearly but also creates a record of your growth.
Embrace change and move forward.
After releasing guilt and learning from errors, it’s time to embrace change. Set new, realistic goals based on your lessons learned. This could be as simple as committing to improving a specific skill within three months. ____40____ For example, if you want to enhance your decision-making skills, practice making small, low-risk decisions daily. This will build your confidence over time.

My older brother, Leo, has always been the responsible one—the rule-follower, the organizer, the one who made sure everything was in its proper place. I used to admire that about him. Until the summer I turned sixteen.
That was the summer I built my tree-house. It wasn’t fancy—just a few wooden planks nailed between the strong branches of the old oak in our backyard. But it was mine. I painted the railings (围栏) blue, hung a wind chime (铃) I made from bottle caps, and placed a small wooden box inside where I kept my treasures: a fossil I had found, a letter from my best friend, and a photo of our dog Max, who had passed away the year before. That tree-house was my world, the place where I felt safe and free. And Leo knew it.
One afternoon, I came home from a friend’s house to find Leo in the backyard with a saw (锯子) in his hand. The blue railings were gone. The wind chime lay broken on the grass. The tree-house was half destroyed, its wooden planks scattered on the ground like fallen leaves.
“What did you do ” I screamed, my voice shaking with disbelief. Leo didn’t look up. “Dad said it was unsafe. The branches were rotting. It could have fallen at any time.” “You didn’t even ask me!” I shouted back. I stood there, trembling with anger. He had taken something I loved and torn it apart without a word. “I hate you,” I whispered. Then I turned and walked away, my eyes burning with tears.
For two weeks, I didn’t speak to him. He left notes on my desk. I threw them away. He knocked on my door. I locked it. During those weeks, I noticed he spent every evening in the garage, and I could hear the sounds of hammering and sawing late into the night. I assumed he was working on some project of his own—something he had always done. I didn’t ask. I didn’t care. Then, on a rainy Sunday morning, I heard a noise in the backyard.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

I pulled back the curtain and couldn’t believe what I saw.

【原文】M: We stand at a crucial point in our city’s development. We have for a long time known of the problems with traffic jams, but sadly little action has been taken to address them. However, we have listened to our citizens’ concerns across all neighborhoods, and we have chosen to act and make difficult decisions. We have decided to start charging for downtown parking in 2027. Businesses will have one year to get ready for the change from free parking to paid parking, which will help reduce traffic. In addition, our city will introduce a public bike program. It will allow residents to rent bicycles at various stations throughout the city at low cost. We see this as an urgent action that needs to be taken. We cannot put convenience ahead of our city’s ability to move freely. For too long, the areas that are most crowded have been ignored. Well, no more! In addition, we will also be expanding bus routes by 2028. Unless we can find better funding, we will need to increase bus ticket prices slightly. They can easily serve more neighborhoods with little impact on the environment. Traffic has taken over our daily lives, and we need to address it urgently before it stops our city’s economy completely.

Night after night, a familiar pair makes their rounds at an apartment community: a woman collecting trash, and her loyal dog, Princess. Rain or shine, the woman performs this essential, though difficult, job, always accompanied by her faithful companion.
One resident, Olivia Perkins, was especially touched by their routine and the bond between the woman and her dog. She began filming short clips of the two working together, and eventually decided to surprise her with a thoughtful gift: a matching safety vest (马甲) for Princess so they could work together safely—and in style. In a heartfelt moment captured on video, the woman gently puts the vest on her dog, smiling as she thanks Perkins, clearly moved by the gesture.
Perkins shared the video online, hoping to spread some warmth. The response, however, grew far beyond her expectations. Viewers were not only charmed by the bond between the woman and her dog but also impressed by her dedication and positive attitude. The video went viral. The woman's daughter-in-law recognized her online and shared more of her story.
People soon learned the woman was navigating particularly tough times. Going through a personal transition, she had recently sold her vehicle to afford one reliable enough for work. She and Princess were living in a small, worn-down apartment, working hard to make ends meet. Yet, as Perkins noted, she faced each day with a smile and a kind word for everyone.
Moved by her resilience (坚韧) and the overwhelming online response, Perkins started a fundraiser to help ease some of her financial strain. The fundraiser quickly surpassed its goal, offering crucial support. “Please be kind. Everyone is dealing with something they do not speak about and will still show up to work every day,” said Perkins. “The people that work behind the scenes are the ones that need all the praise. Small jobs are the most important stories that always go unnoticed and get the least amount of thank you.”
The story, which began with a simple vest, became a powerful reminder. It showed how a single act of kindness, recognizing the dignity in another's work and struggle, can ripple outward. Sometimes, seeing and appreciating one person's quiet strength can inspire a community to help them carry their load.
24. What does the underlined part “the gesture” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The dog-human bond. B. Perkins’s gift-giving act.
C. Putting the vest on the dog. D. Filming the woman working.
25. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4
A. What makes the video go viral. B. How the woman found empathy.
C. What the follow-up video reveals. D. How the woman struggled with life.
26. What can we learn from Perkins’s words
A. Financial support is crucial to everyone.
B. Service workers deserve respect too.
C. People behind the scenes pay.
D. Small jobs are of little value.
27. What message does the story convey
A. Loyal pets will serve as great companions.
B. Positive attitude will lead to eventual success.
C. Social media can bring about effective solutions.

【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中“People soon learned the woman was navigating particularly tough times. Going through a personal transition, she had recently sold her vehicle to afford one reliable enough for work. She and Princess were living in a small, worn-down apartment, working hard to make ends meet. Yet, as Perkins noted, she faced each day with a smile and a kind word for everyone.(人们很快了解到，这位女士正经历着一段特别艰难的时期。在经历个人转变的过程中，她最近卖掉了自己的车，以便买一辆足够可靠的车用于工作。她和公主住在一间破旧的小公寓里，努力维持生计。然而，正如珀金斯所指出的，她每天都面带微笑，对每个人都和蔼可亲)”可知，本段主要讲述了这位女士如何与生活作斗争。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““Please be kind. Everyone is dealing with something they do not speak about and will still show up to work every day,” said Perkins. “The people that work behind the scenes are the ones that need all the praise. Small jobs are the most important stories that always go unnoticed and get the least amount of thank you.”(“请善良一点。每个人都在处理一些他们不愿提及的事情，但他们仍然会每天去上班，”珀金斯说。“在幕后工作的人是最需要赞扬的人。小工作是最重要的故事，却总是被忽视，得到的感谢也最少。”)”可知，珀金斯认为服务工作者也应该得到尊重。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“The story, which began with a simple vest, became a powerful reminder. It showed how a single act of kindness, recognizing the dignity in another's work and struggle, can ripple outward. Sometimes, seeing and appreciating one person's quiet strength can inspire a community to help them carry their load.(这个故事始于一件简单的背心，却成为了一个有力的提醒。它表明，一个简单的善举，即认可他人工作和奋斗中的尊严，可以向外扩散。有时候，看到并欣赏一个人的安静力量可以激励整个社区来帮助他们分担负担)”可知，文章传达的主要信息是善良往往始于最简单的举动。

We all experience moments when our thoughts drift away from what we’re doing. Scientists call this "mind wandering". Past research has mostly focused on how our minds wander to memories or future plans. This “cognitive” mind wandering is linked to both creativity and distress (悲伤).
However, a new study suggests we also frequently engage in “body wandering”—when spontaneous (自发的) thoughts turn to bodily sensations like our heartbeat or breath. “The effects of this have been largely overlooked,” says neuroscientist Michael Allen.
To investigate, Allen’s team had 536 people lie in an MRI scanner. Afterward, they reported what was on their minds. Besides typical daydreams, many reported paying attention to bodily sensations. The MRI scans supported this, showing that “body wandering” had a different form of brain function than cognitive mind wandering.
The findings revealed a complex picture. In the moment, people who reported more body wandering during the scan also reported feeling more distress. Study coauthor Leah Banellis notes that the confined (狭窄的) MRI environment might have influenced this.
Yet, the broader picture told a different story. Overall, participants who tended to engage in body wandering more often in daily life showed fewer symptoms of depression and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Both conditions are often associated with excessive traditional mind wandering and poor interoception—the ability to sense one's internal bodily state.
“While focusing on the body might feel unpleasant in a stressful moment, a general tendency to tune into bodily signals could have a protective effect over time, ” Banellis explains. It might help ground individuals likely to fall into harmful cycles of negative thinking
A key limitation, according to peer reviewer Aaron Kucyi, is that inner thoughts were measured only once. “Mind wandering is dynamic. A single measure might miss its slight differences,” he says. “Despite this, the study is influential for potentially bridging two separate fields of research: interoception and mind wandering.”
28. What aspect of body wandering does the research focus on
A. Its effects. B. Its symptoms. C. Its causes. D. Its variety.
29. What did the MRI scans show about body wandering
A. A distinct brain activity. B. A strong personal preference.
C. Greatly enhanced attention. D. Limited technological observation.
30. What did Allen’s team find about body wandering
A. It is artificial and measurable.
B. It is time—saving and worthwhile.
C. It leads to dangerous thoughts but healthier body.
D. It causes short-term negative emotions but long-term benefits.
31. What is Aaron Kucyi’s attitude to the study
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Reserved. D. Unclear.
【答案】28. A 29. A 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了科学家对身体走神的研究，包括其影响、大脑活动以及长期益处等。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The effects of this have been largely overlooked,” says neuroscientist Michael Allen.(神经科学家迈克尔·艾伦说：“这一点的影响在很大程度上被忽视了。”)”以及后文围绕身体走神的影响展开研究可知，这项研究关注的是身体走神的影响。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The MRI scans supported this, showing that “body wandering” had a different form of brain function than cognitive mind wandering.(核磁共振扫描证实了这一点，表明“身体走神”与认知走神的大脑功能形式不同)”可知，核磁共振扫描显示身体走神有独特的大脑活动。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In the moment, people who reported more body wandering during the scan also reported feeling more distress.(在扫描过程中，报告身体走神较多的人也表示感到更痛苦)”以及第五段“Overall, participants who tended to engage in body wandering more often in daily life showed fewer symptoms of depression and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).(总体而言，在日常生活中更倾向于身体走神的参与者表现出较少的抑郁和注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）症状)”可知，艾伦的团队发现身体走神会引起短期的负面情绪，但有长期益处。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Despite this, the study is influential for potentially bridging two separate fields of research: interoception and mind wandering.(尽管如此，这项研究具有影响力，因为它有可能连接两个独立的研究领域：内感受和走神)”可知，亚伦·库奇认为这项研究虽然有局限，但具有影响力，说明他对这项研究持支持态度。

Today, concrete production accounts for roughly 8 percent of global carbon emissions, which is about a quarter of all industry carbon emissions. Fortunately, the ancient Romans might have taught us a thing or two about manufacturing concrete that lasts for thousands of years.
A new study has strictly analyzed the raw materials and energy demands of the ancient recipe of Roman concrete, revealing some useful ways to improve modern cement (水泥). Surprisingly, researchers found that producing Roman concrete requires more water and more greenhouse gas emissions than commonly used concrete today. But while the initial energy costs may be higher, it may not need to be replaced or repaired as often.
It’s hard to compare the longevity of Roman concrete to modern concrete, because today, many concrete buildings and structures are reinforced with steel. As steel rusts (生锈), it expands, forcing any surrounding concrete to crack and degrade in as little as a decade. By comparison, ancient Roman concrete is capable of restoring itself. This means that when cracks appear in the cement, they are naturally glued back together when water leaks in. That’s part of the water reason ancient Roman seawalls have lasted for centuries, despite the constant erosion (侵蚀) of seawater.
Daniela Martinez, lead author and engineer of the University of the North in Columbia acknowledges that longer-lasting cement structures “can only partially balance out increased demand for new material,” but Roman manufacturing methods may also hold other environmental benefits.
Roman concrete produces far fewer dangerous air pollutants, possibly because the limestone, the main ingredient of Roman concrete, is burned using clean wood, not fossil (化石) fuels. According to recent models, using Roman cement techniques could reduce harmful gas emissions by up to 98 percent compared to modern methods. “There are a lot of lessons that we can draw from the Romans. If we can incorporate their strategies with our modern innovative ideas, we can create a more sustainable built environment.” says Martinez.
32. How does the author present the background of the study
A. By giving examples.
B. By providing statistics.
C. By defining a concept.
D. By describing a scene.
33. What can be inferred about Roman concrete
A. It has a short service life.
B. It needs regular maintenance.
C. It proves sustainable over time.
D. It requires low initial energy costs.
34. Which word can best describe the property of ancient Roman concrete
A. Ever-lasting. B. Self-healing. C. Easy-cutting. D. Safe-guarding.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Green Living, A New Path.
B. Carbon Crisis, A Modern Issue.
C. Magic Power, A Roman Mystery.
D. Ancient Recipe, A Possible Solution.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文通过对比古罗马混凝土与现代混凝土，探讨了古罗马混凝土配方对现代水泥制造的启示及其环境效益。

细节理解题。根据第一段中“Today, concrete production accounts for roughly 8 percent of global carbon emissions, which is about a quarter of all industry carbon emissions.(如今，混凝土生产约占全球碳排放量的8%，约占所有工业碳排放量的四分之一)”可知，作者通过提供统计数据来呈现研究的背景。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“By comparison, ancient Roman concrete is capable of restoring itself. This means that when cracks appear in the cement, they are naturally glued back together when water leaks in. That’s part of the water reason ancient Roman seawalls have lasted for centuries, despite the constant erosion (侵蚀) of seawater.(相比之下，古罗马的混凝土能够自我修复。这意味着当水泥出现裂缝时，当水渗入时，它们会自然地粘合在一起。这就是为什么古罗马的海堤能够经受住海水的不断侵蚀，屹立数百年不倒的部分原因)”可推知，古罗马的混凝土随着时间的推移被证明是可持续的。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“By comparison, ancient Roman concrete is capable of restoring itself. (相比之下，古罗马的混凝土能够自我修复。)”可知，古罗马混凝土具有自我修复的特性。
【35题详解】

【导语】文章介绍犯错不可避免，并给出四种自我原谅、从错误中成长的方法。
【36题详解】
上文“Instead of getting lost in regret, it’s crucial to learn how to heal and grow from those experiences.(与其沉浸在后悔中，不如学会如何从这些经历中治愈和成长)”提出要从错误中自愈成长，下文“Here are the tips you can try the next time you want to forgive yourself.(以下是你下次想要原谅自己时可以尝试的技巧)”引出具体建议，空处承上启下，前后语义形成转折，说明道理易懂但实操困难。所以D项“虽说如此，但做起来却不容易，对吧？”符合语境。
【37题详解】
上文“It’s vital to remember that making mistakes is a normal part of being human.(重要的是要记住，犯错是人类正常的一部分)”提及犯错很正常，空处和前文为解释顺接关系，呼应人类都会犯错的共性。所以C项“每个人在人生某个阶段都会犯错”符合语境，C选项中“Everyone messes up”与上文“making mistakes”语义呼应，进一步解释前文观点。
【38题详解】
下文“Releasing guilt and shame is essential for healing. These negative feelings can trap you in a loop of self-blame. To break free, start by reflecting on your mistake and its consequences. Self-compassion is key. Treat yourself as you would treat a friend who made a similar mistake. Remind yourself that everyone fails and that your past actions do not define your worth. (释放内疚和羞耻感对于治愈至关重要。这些负面情绪会让你陷入自责的循环。要想挣脱束缚，首先要反思你的错误及其后果。自我同情是关键。像对待犯过类似错误的朋友一样对待自己。提醒自己，每个人都会失败，你过去的行为并不能定义你的价值)”说明整段讲述放下内疚和羞愧、停止自我指责。空处统领本段主旨，概括段落核心内容。所以B项“放下内疚与羞愧”契合段落主题。
【39题详解】
上文“For instance, if poor time management led to missing a deadline at work, consider strategies to improve this skill.(例如，如果时间管理不善导致错过工作截止日期，考虑采取策略来提高这项技能)”说明可以通过写日记来分析错误，空处和前文为递进关系，引出记录反思的方式。所以G项“写日记对此是个有用的方式”符合语境，进一步说明写日记的作用。
【40题详解】
上文“This could be as simple as committing to improving a specific skill within three months.(这可能很简单，比如在三个月内致力于提高一项特定技能)”说明要设定目标并致力于提高技能，下文“For example, if you want to enhance your decision-making skills, practice making small, low-risk decisions daily. This will build your confidence over time.(例如，如果你想提高你的决策能力，每天练习做出小而低风险的决定。随着时间的推移，这将建立你的信心)”举例通过日常小决定培养能力、建立自信。空处顺接前文，和后文为总述与举例关系，引出具体行动方式，所以E项“考虑养成有益的习惯。”符合语境。

Health First, Sports for All
To promote students’ physical and mental health, our school has launched a new sports plan under the theme “Health First, Sports for All.”
Every student is encouraged to master at least one sport. Class leagues and school leagues have been organized, and rooftops have been turned into “sky playgrounds”, where we jump rope, play ball, and enjoy climbing activities during breaks. The whole campus is full of energy.
The plan has brought great changes to my classmates. Many have become more energetic and focused in class. Some who used to avoid exercise now look forward to every break on the playground. Most importantly, we are developing a lifelong habit of staying active—a true gift for our health.

第二节（满分25分）
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。
My older brother, Leo, has always been the responsible one—the rule-follower, the organizer, the one who made sure everything was in its proper place. I used to admire that about him. Until the summer I turned sixteen.
That was the summer I built my tree-house. It wasn’t fancy—just a few wooden planks nailed between the strong branches of the old oak in our backyard. But it was mine. I painted the railings (围栏) blue, hung a wind chime (铃) I made from bottle caps, and placed a small wooden box inside where I kept my treasures: a fossil I had found, a letter from my best friend, and a photo of our dog Max, who had passed away the year before. That tree-house was my world, the place where I felt safe and free. And Leo knew it.
One afternoon, I came home from a friend’s house to find Leo in the backyard with a saw (锯子) in his hand. The blue railings were gone. The wind chime lay broken on the grass. The tree-house was half destroyed, its wooden planks scattered on the ground like fallen leaves.
“What did you do ” I screamed, my voice shaking with disbelief. Leo didn’t look up. “Dad said it was unsafe. The branches were rotting. It could have fallen at any time.” “You didn’t even ask me!” I shouted back. I stood there, trembling with anger. He had taken something I loved and torn it apart without a word. “I hate you,” I whispered. Then I turned and walked away, my eyes burning with tears.
For two weeks, I didn’t speak to him. He left notes on my desk. I threw them away. He knocked on my door. I locked it. During those weeks, I noticed he spent every evening in the garage, and I could hear the sounds of hammering and sawing late into the night. I assumed he was working on some project of his own—something he had always done. I didn’t ask. I didn’t care. Then, on a rainy Sunday morning, I heard a noise in the backyard.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

I pulled back the curtain and couldn’t believe what I saw.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Filled with guilt and gratitude, I climbed up to see what he had made.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I pulled back the curtain and couldn’t believe what I saw. Leo was standing in the pouring rain, holding a pile of wooden planks. He was completely soaked, but he didn’t seem to notice. He was building something—not the old treehouse, but a small platform with a roof, stronger and safer than before. He hammered each nail carefully, measured each plank twice, and wiped rain from his eyes so he could see. He had never built anything like this in his life. Suddenly, the hammering from the garage over the past weeks made sense—he had been teaching himself how to build, just for me.
Filled with guilt and gratitude, I climbed up to see what he had made. The platform was solid, the roof waterproof. In the center sat a new wooden box, polished smooth. On top of it was a note in his handwriting: “I should have asked. I’m sorry. I can’t bring back the old one, but I can help you build a better one. Together.” I thought of how I had locked him out, thrown away his notes, and whispered “I hate you.” Tears filled my eyes. I walked inside and found Leo drying his hair. “I’m sorry,” I said. He looked up, surprised. “For what ” “For everything.” He smiled and handed me a hammer. “Then let’s fix it together.” I nodded, and for the first time in weeks, we sat side by side—not as enemies, but as brothers.
【解析】
【导语】本文以作者和哥哥Leo的矛盾为线索展开。作者16岁那年建了树屋，它是作者的世界。一天作者回家发现Leo毁了树屋，他称爸爸说其不安全。作者很生气，两周不理他。后来发现他每晚在车库忙碌，作者未过问。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段句首可知，第一段可以描写作者拉开窗帘意外看到Leo冒大雨劳作的样子，并恍然大悟明白他连日自学搭建的苦心。
②由第二段句首可知，第二段可以描写作者心怀愧疚与感激走近新平台，看到精致建筑与道歉便签，回忆自己之前的任性行为，主动向Leo道歉，两人和解重拾兄弟情谊，升华亲情包容与彼此谅解的主旨。
2.续写线索：拉开窗帘——细看搭建 —— 心怀愧疚走近新作 —— 主动道歉表达悔意 —— 兄弟和解重拾温情
