From the “Sultan of Swat” to the “Colossus of Clout,” no baseball player has been given more eye-catching names than Babe Ruth. But there’s one name for the legendary Babe you might not know: cancer (癌症) pioneer.
Ruth, born in February 1895, was the widely known king of baseball by his 30th birthday. By 1925, he had won four World Series and established himself as the sport’s most fearsome hitter.
But he was also famous as a heavy eater when he wasn’t on the field. On April 7,1925, on the way to a game, Ruth told teammates he felt unwell and passed out. Later he had operations to remove one part of his intestine (肠道).
Less than a decade later, Ruth found himself back at the hospital in an even more terrible situation and was told he had cancer. Later that year, doctors suggested that Ruth take part in a medical test for an experimental drug (药物), which had only been tested on mice. Ruth, who didn’t want to know what drug he was receiving or why, agreed, making him one of the first patients anywhere to receive the special treatment.
Even though Ruth only lived another year, the method did lengthen his life, which was regarded a milestone in medicine. By 1998,40 percent of patients with the same kind of cancer that Ruth developed, had a survival rate of five or more years.
Thanks to Ruth and other patients in the study, treatments are much more effective and specific today. “I realized that if anything was learned about that type of treatment, whether good or bad,” Ruth wrote in his book, “it would be of use in the future to the medical profession and maybe to a lot of people with my same trouble.”
24. What do Ruth’s titles show
A. His high social position. B. His rich personal experience.
C. His widespread popularity. D. His great medical contributions.
25. What does the author suggest about Ruth’s health problem in 1925
A. It marked the start of cancer. B. It was related to his eating habits.
C. It was solved by an operation. D. It resulted from the game stress.
26. What can be inferred about the cancer treatment Ruth got
A. It was widely used on humans.
B. It was forced upon him against his will.
C. It lengthened his life by over five years.
D. It made a difference to later cancer patients.
27. Which of the following can best describe Babe Ruth
A. Selfless and brave. B. Patient and helpful.
C. Gifted and determined. D. Hopeful and confident.
C
Many companies have advertised a feature that enables users to employ AI as a recipe generator assistant. In one demonstration (展示，演示), a user asks the virtual assistant for a meal plan with ingredients (食材) they have, and the AI returns a list of recipes (食谱) using those ingredients. In fact, the employment of AI in the brainstorming stage is also gaining increasing popularity. While that seems convenient, most of the press about the relationship between AI and cooking has been negative so far.
For years, chefs on popular video platforms have staged cook-offs between “real” and AI recipes, with the “real” chefs often winning. In 2025, Tasty, an online platform, compared a chocolate cake recipe generated by an AI tool with one developed by a professional cook. While the AI recipe baked up fine, the cook’s recipe won in a blind taste test. The tasters preferred the cook’s cake for its not-too-sweet and juicer flavor compared to the AI cake.
Sarah and Kaitlin Leung are sisters who run a famous food blog. Their recipes go through a long process. They brainstorm ideas, do research, and experiment a lot before testing each recipe up to 40 times. “We know that our readers are trusting us, so we try to make sure our recipe not only works but is also easy to follow,” Sarah says. “The stories that surround these recipes and the connections that we make with people through these recipes are priceless — it’s so deeply human. By comparison, the machine doesn’t eat and the machine can’t taste.”
“It’s not all negative for me.” A software engineer Olson believes AI has a place in the recipe development process. He adds, “but I don’t think the technology is there to the point where you can have an entirely AI-generated blog, although that would be a cool concept. Maybe someone should try it and see how it goes.”
28. What can AI do in developing a recipe
A. Planning the budget. B. Shortening cooking time.
C. Coming up with ideas. D. Demonstrating cooking methods.
29. What can we know about the competition launched by Tasty
A. The AI tool was developed by a cook.
B. The result agrees with those of previous years.
C. The cook’s cake tasted sweeter and juicier.
D. The comparison was based on the appearance.
30. How do the sisters ensure the quality of their recipes on their food blog
A. By doing multiple tests.
B. By learning the recipes from AI.
C. By using priceless ingredients.
D. By following standard procedures.
31. What is Olson’s attitude towards entirely AI-generated blogs
A. Approving. B. Unconcerned. C. Cautious. D. Negative.
D
“Earworms” (耳虫), some people call them. Songs that get stuck in your head go round and round, sometimes for days, sometimes for months. For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.
To a psychologist, the most interesting thing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites living in a part of our minds.
If you have got an earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someone mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory. Humans have an “inner ear”, for remembering phone numbers, for instance. When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inner ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not have complete knowledge of, or have control over.
Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous “don’t think of a white bear” problem, which tells you to try not to think about white bears, or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of the white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to “shut up” is unlikely to be of much help and has been shown to make it worse. Much better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears’ Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!
32. What are “earworms” according to the passage
A. Insects beyond our control.
B. Worms living in our brain.
C. Ideas and beliefs misread.
D. Songs staying in our mind.
33. What can be inferred about the “inner ear” from Paragraph 3
A. It is responsible for recalling short phrases.
B. It functions poorly when infected by earworms.
C. It is completely controlled by our inner world.
D. It relies heavily on mentions of familiar tunes.
34. What does the underlined word “it” in the last sentence refer to
A. Repeating the instructions to shut up.
B. Stopping thinking about a white bear.
C. Shifting the inner ear to another task.
D. Avoiding listening to pop singers.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Earworms: A Threat to Human Memory
B. Uninvited Tunes: How to Get Rid of It
C. The Inner Ear: A Mysterious World
D. Pop Music: The Unseen Mind Controller

Forgiveness
To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.
36 Try the following steps:
Calm yourself. 37 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.
Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. 38 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.
Take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.
39 If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.
Don’t forget to forgive yourself. 40 But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.
A. Why should you forgive
B. How should you start to forgive
C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.
D. Try to see things from your offender’s angle.
E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.
F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.
G. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.

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。
One summer day my father sent me to buy wire for our farm. At 16, I liked nothing better than driving our old truck, feeling the wind through the open window and the roar of the engine. But this time I was not happy. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit (赊账) at the store.
Sixteen is a prideful age, when a young man wants respect, not charity. It was 1976, and the ugly shadow of racial discrimination (种族歧视) was still a fact of life in our small town. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then stand, head down, while the store owner questioned whether they were “good for it.” I knew black youths just like me who were watched like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery. The memory of their embarrassed faces burned in my mind.
My family was honest. We paid our debts. My parents worked from dawn to dusk, and we never took anything that wasn’t ours. But before harvest, cash was always short. The crops were still green in the fields, and every dollar had to stretch (精打细算). Would the store owner trust us My heart pounded as I parked the truck in front of Davis’s store, dust rising around the wheels.
At Davis’s store, Buck Davis stood behind the cash desk, talking to a farmer I didn’t know. The air smelled of leather and feed. I nodded as I passed him on my way to the hardware shelves, my hands slightly sweaty. I picked up the bunch of wire and added a few other supplies we needed.
When I brought my purchases to the cash desk, I cleared my throat and said carefully, “I need to put this on credit.” The words felt heavy on my tongue.
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。
The farmer gave me an amused, distrustful look but Buck’s face didn’t change. That day I discovered that the good name my parents had earned.

One possible version
The farmer gave me an amused, distrustful look but Buck’s face didn’t change. “Sure,” he said easily, reaching for the wire. “Your daddy is always good for it.” He turned to the farmer and added, “Here is one of James Williams’s sons.” The farmer’s expression softened. He nodded in a neighborly way, as if seeing me for the first time. A wave of relief washed over me, followed by something warmer — pride. Those three words, James Williams’s son, had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust. I walked out of the store with my head high, the wire in my hands feeling light.
That day I discovered the good name my parents had earned. It brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to expect from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself too much to do wrong. Driving home, I understood that a good name wasn’t something you asked for — it was something you lived. My father had given me more than a truck that day. He had given me a legacy of honesty, and the quiet power of being known as someone who could be trusted.

M: Well, the office is just around the corner, which is great. But honestly, the pay is quite low for such high-pressure work. I’m exhausted every day.
Text 2
M: It’s rush hour now. If we take a taxi or drive our own car to the airport, we’ll definitely get stuck in traffic.
W: You’re right. Let’s take the underground instead. It’s faster and we won’t have to worry about the heavy traffic on the road.
Text 3
W: You look pale, Peter. Are you worried about the results of your exams
M: Not really. I just stayed up too late these days preparing my graduation paper. I think I really need a good rest to get rid of this headache.

W: To be honest, I still prefer the feeling of turning real pages. Technology changes fast, but some traditional habits are hard to break.

W: Hi, Jason. You look worried. Is everything okay

W: That’s tough. My director, Ms. Lane, praised the logo I created. Even my team leader, Mr. Miller, liked it.
M: I wish I were in your team. Mr. Reed is so strict.
W: I worked for him last year. He’s demanding, but if you show him some extra market data, he might change his mind.

W: True, but I’ve never dealt with mobile apps. I wouldn’t even know where to start.
M: They probably just need your creative ideas for the app’s functions. Anyway, I’ll forward the link to your email. You should apply since you’ve been complaining about the lack of challenges here.
W: Thanks. I’ll check it carefully and we can discuss it further during our break.

Good morning, everyone. Before we demonstrate our latest smart devices, I’d like to share some background about our company, TechVision. We are headquartered in Berlin and produce electronics under the NewTab and Z-Link brand names. Our primary consumers are students good at technology and young professionals aged 18 to 30. We also distribute our products to international physical store dealers and online platforms. Currently, we are among the top five German companies in the consumer electronics sector, employing over 500 staff members. Regarding our financial performance, last year we reached 240 million euros in total sales and generated a net profit of 12 million euros, which represents 5% of our sales. Looking ahead, we are developing a series of eco-friendly products. These products will feature a revolutionary energy-saving technology. I am confident that these sustainable innovations will soon make us a global leader in the green tech market.
